The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 226

Zhou pretended to decline, but finally accepted the money and went back. From the slightly upturned corners of her mouth, it can be seen that she was actually very happy, but she was embarrassed to show it in a big way.

The next morning, Han Qianluo pushed the harvester to the field to harvest cotton stalks. This is her improved harvester, which can harvest these thick straws, and only needs to replace a small part.

While Han Qianluo was harvesting cotton stalks, Mrs. Zhou came again, and was a little surprised when she saw the cotton stalks that had been cut off, and said, "You can even harvest this kind of thing. It seems that this iron bump is really powerful. Qian Qianluo Come on, let me try it too."

"Okay." Han Qianluo said and gave the harvester to Zhou's operation.

This is the first time Mr. Zhou has operated this machine, so he was very excited, and kept saying: "This thing is really convenient, and the speed is much faster than that of humans. Sure enough, the things that cost money are different."

"Aunt Zhou, if you think it's good, you can buy one too." Han Qianluo said.

"It's too expensive. I can't afford it for the time being. Besides, my family is not too busy right now, so it's not worth buying." Zhou said, not even thinking about buying it.

Han Qianluo was a little disappointed, but he didn't think that Mrs. Hu Xiuzhou must buy the machine.At this time, Mrs. Zhou suddenly said gossipingly: "By the way, when I came here just now, I saw Mr. Liu and Mrs. Sun carrying a lot of things to your house."

"I don't know. I didn't have it when I came out." Han Qianluo said pretending not to understand. In fact, she understood what Zhou meant by talking about this matter. In fact, she just wanted to hear gossip, but she just didn't want to Tell others, so pretend not to know.

Since Han Qianluo pretended to be confused, Zhou did not continue to ask.He just said a few words casually, and then left. Han Qianluo continued to work, but after a while, he saw an old lady from the same village coming, and shouted to her from a distance: "Qianluo, why are you still working here, go back quickly." After finishing speaking, Han Qianluo didn't need to answer, and left by himself.

Not long after, Han Qianluo saw a woman coming, and he had the same reaction as the old lady before, only the woman walked up to her and said, "Qianluo, why are you still working here. "

"No way, if you want to clean it, you need to cut off the cotton stalks in the field, and then plant the wheat, otherwise it will be too late." Han Qianluo replied, some don't understand what is going on with these people, why are they all Such a reaction, even if Liu Linchu sent a dowry, it would not be like this.

The woman laughed and said, "Go back quickly, don't work, anyway, your family is not bad." After speaking, she left with a smile, which made Han Qianluo baffled.Afterwards, several other women passed by here and talked to Han Qianluo, but she always felt that these people came here on purpose.

No matter how those people reacted, Han Qianluo stayed here and worked until noon before going back. On the way back, she kept thinking that it seemed that the family still needed to find some long-term workers.

As soon as Han Qianluo stepped into the gate of his own yard, he immediately understood why those women reacted in that way in the morning.I saw a lot of betrothal gifts piled up in the yard of her house, large and small things piled up in the yard, which made the whole yard look much narrower.

"Brother, these are..." Han Qianluo didn't finish his sentence.

Han Qingquan naturally understood what she was going to ask, so he said, "These are all dowry gifts from Lin Chu, what do you think?"

Han Qianluo looked carefully at the betrothal gifts. There were fabrics, gold and silver jewelry, and some packages were wrapped so that it was impossible to see what was inside.

However, among these things, there is one thing that is placed at the back, but it is still very conspicuous. This is a big screen. Of course, this is not the main thing. The screen is not a rare thing. People's eyeballs are because of the pictures on it.

The screen is full of portraits. From the front, it is a group of pictures of beauties drawn with brushes, with various expressions and postures. But if you look closely, you will find that these pictures are all of the same person, and it is Han Qianluo. And the pictures are very beautiful, which makes people feel very pleasing to the eye.

Han Qianluo liked this screen very much. When he walked over and took a closer look, he found that there was a picture behind the screen, which was drawn with charcoal, and it was not the ancient painting method. It looked like a sketch, and it was a painting. In the secondary landscape painting, there is a person in the middle, the painting is lifelike, and it can be seen at a glance that the person in the painting is Han Qianluo.

This picture shocked Han Qianluo. She had accidentally mentioned this painting method to Liu Linchu when they were chatting before, but she didn't expect Liu Linchu to learn to draw this kind of painting, which really shocked her. And very happy.

"Are you happy?" Han Qingquan asked with a smile on the side.

Han Qianluo was really happy, she nodded repeatedly and said, "It's so beautiful." But she felt that the most important thing was this kindness, which made people happy.

Unexpectedly, Han Qingquan said: "This is not the only one, but a set, and there are other things on it. If you look carefully, you will find it."

Upon hearing this, Han Qianluo quickly checked some things that could be seen outside. The dressing table was easier to find. The edge of the big bronze mirror was also engraved with the same pattern, and some other small things were also engraved with the same style. patterns that appear to be from the same group.

"Where's Brother Lin Chu?" Han Qianluo asked quickly, turned his head to look around, but found no one.

"It seems that I went back to get something." Han Qingquan replied.

At this time, someone's second aunt Wang suddenly came, and she was surprised when she walked in, "Are these all betrothal gifts from Mr. Liu?"

"Yes, Second Aunt." Han Qingquan replied.

"I heard someone say it before, and I still don't believe it. I didn't expect that the betrothal gifts have actually been sent over. Look at these betrothal gifts. I have never seen them in my life." Wang praised, with a look of envy , and then said seriously, "By the way, have you discussed your marriage?"

Han Qingquan nodded and said, "It's already been settled, it's been settled a long time ago, and I'll send wedding invitations when I'm free in two days."

"Oh, when, why didn't you come to tell me and your second uncle that we are still a family." Second Aunt Wang said a little dissatisfied.

Han Qingquan quickly said: "Second Aunt, I'm too busy these days, so I haven't had time to tell you, don't be angry."

"Why would I be angry? When I heard about this incident, I thought that your family would not recognize me as the second aunt after you made a fortune." Wang said with a bit of yin and yang.

"Second Aunt, what did you say? No matter what, you are still my Second Aunt. It's really too busy these days, so I can't take care of it for the time being. Second Aunt, you can also eat here tonight, later Call Second Uncle and the others over," Han Qingquan said hastily.

Only then did Wang show a smile and said, "Let me just say, I have watched you grow up since I was a child, and I know you very well. I know that you are not the kind of heartless person. I guess you are too busy."

"Second Aunt, you can call Second Uncle and the others over later, and have dinner at my house." Han Qingquan said.

Mrs. Wang readily agreed, turned around and went back.Han Qianluo and his family started to eat lunch. After lunch, she took a nap and continued to go to the field to harvest cotton stalks. When the sun began to slant to the west in the middle of the afternoon, she finished harvesting, and then went back to prepare dinner.

After returning home, Han Qianluo found that the second aunt's family and the matchmaker had come over and were sitting there discussing the betrothal gifts. Besides, there were also many women from the same village gathered here.

When those people saw Han Qianluo coming back, they hurriedly greeted him: "Qianluo is back, come and sit and rest for a while."

Seeing these people, Han Qianluo had no choice but to put the harvester aside, sit with them, and accept their curious cross-examinations, such as Liu Linchu's identity, how they met and other gossip questions.

These people were talking, and suddenly a middle-aged woman laughed and said to Wang: "Wang, your sister-in-law is gone. I'm afraid you, an aunt, should do some things."

The other women were stunned for a moment, then they all came to their senses, and then smiled, but the smiles were ambiguous, and they all looked at Han Qianluo, which made Han Qianluo baffled, not knowing what was going on, She asked with some doubts: "What's wrong?"

"You'll know when the time comes." A woman covered her mouth and laughed again after she finished speaking.

Han Qianluo decided not to go to these inexplicable women, stood up and said, "You guys are chatting, I'm going to prepare dinner." After speaking, he went to prepare dinner, leaving those people there to continue chatting.

After a while, Mrs. Wang also came in to help prepare the dinner. While picking vegetables, she said, "Mr. Liu has no parents. After you go, you don't have to worry about your mother-in-law being difficult to take care of. You just need to take care of him alone."

Han Qianluo thought to himself, not only is there a mother-in-law, but this mother-in-law is more powerful and cruel than ordinary mother-in-laws, and if she is not careful, her life will be lost.

Wang Shi didn't know what was going on in her mind, she was still chattering about how difficult it was for her mother-in-law when she first married, but Han Qianluo listened quietly without interjecting, and let Wang Shi talk.

After dinner early, the others went back. Han Qianluo was dragged by Liu Linchu to her bedroom. She thought Liu Linchu had something to whisper, so she called softly, "Brother Linchu."

"Xiao Luo, I have something to discuss with you." Unexpectedly, Liu Linchu said in a serious manner.
