"Osmanthus fragrans, listen to my sister. In the past two days, I have heard a lot of gossip about your cardamom. Hey, that's ugly. I was thinking of saying something nice for you, but here it is. A young man, in front of those big-mouthed girls and daughters-in-law flirted with your cardamom, and finally the two of them went back to your house in front of everyone, and locked the door in broad daylight, you know Isn't that the case?"

Osmanthus didn't know, let alone who the young man Fei's daughter-in-law was talking about, but she didn't want to hear Fei's daughter-in-law's hypocrisy, so she nodded and lied that she knew about it.

Osmanthus fragrans had never told lies, and as soon as the words came out, she lowered her head and pretended to drink tea with a guilty conscience, but Fei's daughter-in-law saw it and found out.

Fei's daughter-in-law was sure that Osmanthus didn't know what her daughter was doing, so she sat up straight, coughed twice arrogantly, and raised her legs, as if she was in the driver's seat, looking down on everyone from top to bottom. Not counting, the encounter was different from the enthusiasm just now, and he became proud.

He said to Osmanthus, "My sister, I really like your cardamom. No matter what others say, whether it is true or not, I can pretend it didn't happen. Let's just say that my son and your cardamom match so well. In terms of size, our son is 1.8 meters, and he is outstanding among the crowd. In terms of appearance, my child will grow up, and the advantages of me and his father have not fallen behind in this child."

Osmanthus fragrans murmured in her heart, she didn't fall behind, even your high-ranking fake aloofness also took over, and the child's father's rigidity and lack of understanding also took over.

The daughter-in-law of Fei's family saw that neither of the couple said anything, cleared her throat and continued, "My son will become a high-ranking official in the future. Should your cardamom drink spicy food like the popular one?"

Osmanthus fragrans interrupted Fei's daughter-in-law's bragging, "Hasn't your son never had a childbirth in three years? This time he hasn't had a childbirth. I'm afraid he will have to wait another four years. He's 17 this year. In another four years, he'll be born." I'm 21, what if I still can't pass the Tongsheng exam?"

Fei's daughter-in-law, choking on a word, was speechless for a long time, staring at Osmanthus fragrans.

My son has participated in the childbirth exam every four years since he was a child. So far, he has taken the childbirth exam for three times, and he has never passed the childbirth exam. Short, when others talk about her son, she avoids this topic. Osmanthus just put her scars on the table and said that for the sake of her son's marriage, she endured it!
"Osmanthus, you can't be so short-sighted, can you? My son loves his father. He usually helps his father after school, which delays a lot of time. Now my father and I let our son study hard. Yes, I will be able to pass after four years."

Seeing what she said swears but she has no intention of leaving, Osmanthus can't help getting up to see off the guests.

"Anping and I are still busy, so let us think about this matter, and I will talk to you later, do you think it's okay?"

The daughter-in-law of Fei's family saw that Osmanthus finally let go, and she didn't insist anymore. Anyway, she has plenty of time every day, so she will bring her son with her next time, so that Osmanthus can see how good her son is.

Osmanthus sent people to the door, and persuaded Fei's daughter-in-law, "Your son is not too young, I think so, you have to tell him about the other family's daughter, if this family is not successful, that family is successful, you say yes No, and it will not delay your son's future."

She said all this, but the Fei family's daughter-in-law still insisted on waiting for the letter from the Osmanthus family, quite determined not to hit the south wall and not look back.

Sending the person away, Osmanthus fragrans shook her head and smiled wryly, she sat next to Anping and said, "With such a mother, it's no wonder if you don't delay the child. Whoever failed the exam for so many years has already married and lived a stable life. What's wrong, I have to let my son be 21 years old and then take the Tongsheng examination. It takes a few years. Even if the next Tongsheng passes, his son will be 21 years old. He will take the Juren examination, and then take the No. [-] examination after the examination. , people's life is almost over, can't our cardamom serve his son until he dies?"

Anping heard movement in the courtyard again, raised his hand and said, "Go and see, who is it again?"

Osmanthus fragrans glanced at Anping, "You are the head of the family, you rest, I will deal with it."

Another roundabout proposal!
I didn't do anything else that day, but I was here to propose marriage, and I was exhausted by the sweet-scented osmanthus. I started sweeping the yard in the morning, and the moon was in the sky at night, and I haven't finished sweeping the yard yet.

Dou Kou came back from the door with Xiao Jiu, and saw Mother sweeping the yard in the dark, and asked in puzzlement, "I can't see anything, let's do it tomorrow."

Osmanthus leaned on the broom as a crutch, supported her waist with the other hand, and straightened her body, "We will go to the city tomorrow, mother can't help this trouble, I didn't do anything today, but I came to propose marriage to you. "

Xiao Jiu blinked, with candy still in her mouth, and said vaguely, "Mother, Xiao Jiu is going to school tomorrow."

"You child, you couldn't send it over at first, but now you don't go, you're thinking about it, and you won't be able to play at your sister-in-law Chunjuan's house. Let's not talk about it, there is food warming for you in the kitchen, go and eat."

Osmanthus fragrans persisted in sweeping the yard in the dark, and only then did she feel relieved, as she had finished this trivial matter.

Cardamom brought the food into the house, and Xiao Jiu clung to it like a bug.

At the dinner table, Dou Kou asked about today's affairs. She actually came back once during the day, but seeing people coming in and out, Dou Kou probably guessed what was going on, so she simply hid at Chunjuan's house for a quiet time, and she would listen to her mother's nagging. Talking about this matter, she also wanted to know why these people had to come to propose marriage today as if they had made an appointment.

"Mother, I have heard a lot about your good manners today, and today I praise you more than the previous years combined," Osmanthus fragrans' ears felt numb.

Anping interjected from the side, "Don't listen to your mother, she is beautiful in her heart, and when she was breastfeeding your brother, she was still talking about finding a good wife for your brother in the future."

Cardamom was eating a hot meal, watching her father and mother talking about her affairs, with a big smile on her mouth all the time, the room was very warm, and the food was also very hot. Although Xiaojiu next to her was a bit annoyed by her mouth, it was just right. , is cardamom's favorite day.

She still remembers that when she just woke up in this world, her home was a shabby thatched house. That night the roof was exposed to rain, and the house was filled with broken bottles and jars. There is a younger sister in foster care.

In those days, she felt that she couldn't survive after only one day, but that was the best living environment that her father and mother could give her sisters and brothers.

"Doumo, everything is fine in our family now, but it's not good at all. I'm short of telling you about a good marriage."
