The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 72
"If Aunt Zhou has anything to say, just say it. If I can help, I will definitely help." Han Qianluo said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhou gently scratched her hair, and said with some annoyance: "Qianluo, you also know that our family's conditions are not good. I am such an old woman, but I still have three sons who are in debt." Although the tone is troubled , but Han Qianluo always felt a sense of pride.

The Zhou family didn't care what Han Qianluo was thinking, and continued to say: "This boss has already had the coronation ceremony this year, and he hasn't made a kiss yet. He finally got a kiss a few days ago, from a girl's family. Don't dislike our family's conditions, and promise to get married after a while." Having said this, Mrs. Zhou really looked worried.

Han Qianluo also knows a little about her family's situation. She raised her three sons alone. I heard that her husband died of corvee more than ten years ago. It is not easy to raise the three sons alone. Therefore, the conditions at home are also very difficult, worse than before Han Qianluo's home.

"Although the girl's family doesn't dislike our family's situation, a room must be vacated for them when they get married. You should also know the few rooms in our house. There is no room to live in," Zhou said.

Although Han Qianluo didn't care much about those families in Tongli, he still knew something about Zhou's family. There were only three houses in total, one main room and two bedrooms. One of them must be Zhou's residence, and the other was used as In the house where the eldest of the Zhou family got married, the second and third children did not have a house to live in. This is indeed a problem worth worrying about for Zhou.

However, Han Qianluo didn't think she had anything to do with this matter. She didn't know Zhou's family well at all. At most, she only knew such a person. How could this Zhou family find her?
No matter how confused he was, Han Qianluo still smiled on the surface and said, "What can Aunt Zhou need from me?"

"It's like this. This time when the eldest got married, all the little money in the family was spent, and I owed a lot of money to others. I thought, anyway, the second and third children will not have much to do at home, and the family There is no place for them to live, so it is better to let them go out to make a living."

The Zhou family has already talked about this, how could Han Qianluo not know the reason for Zhou's visit, but she still waited for the Zhou family to speak out.

Fortunately, the Zhou family didn't make Han Qianluo wait too long, and then said: "I heard that Qianluo is very familiar with the shopkeepers of the restaurants in the capital, so I just wanted to ask you to do me a favor. I need manpower, if necessary, can I let these two boys from my family go." After saying this, Zhou seemed to feel that something was wrong, and quickly added, "It would be nice to have one."

Although the two families are not familiar with each other, they are both from the same neighbourhood, and they often see each other, and the Zhou family is indeed in difficulty, so it’s okay to ask for help, so they agreed: "Aunt Zhou, I have nothing to do with that shopkeeper. It’s a big relationship, so I really can only ask for help, and I can’t help you with anything else.”

"Thank you so much." Mrs. Zhou immediately beamed with joy, thanking her very happily, as excited as if she had picked up money.

Looking at the overexcited Zhou in front of him, Han Qianluo felt that in order to avoid Zhou's expectations being too high, the gap would be too big to bear in the future, and he thought it would be better to get a vaccination, so he quickly said: "Aunt Zhou, I think you can also find other relationships, because I go to that restaurant every day, and I think they have enough staff, and the need for manpower may be very low."

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Zhou seemed to have calmed down a lot, but he still had a smile on his face: "Anyway, the trouble is gone."

After bidding farewell to Mrs. Zhou, Han Qianluo continued to walk home. As soon as she got home, she saw a middle-aged aunt standing at the gate of her house, talking to Han Qingquan.

Han Qingquan, who was facing outside the yard, first spotted Han Qianluo, and quickly shouted: "Xiaoluo is back." Then the middle-aged woman turned her head, and it turned out that it was the Gao family from Tongli.

"Xiaoluo, you came back just in time. This time, I gathered [-] more eggs, so I sent them to you. I didn't expect that you were not at home when you arrived." Gao said enthusiastically.

Mrs. Gao is also a middle-aged widow in Qianyangli. There are many chickens and geese in her family. That's a lot of money, and the conditions at home are pretty good.

Han Qianluo and Gao Shi agreed to let Gao sell the eggs to her, and the price would naturally be given according to the market price. Gao Shi was naturally willing to make money and not have to travel so far.Sometimes it was Han Qianluo who went to pick it up, and sometimes it was Gao who brought the eggs.

"Aunt Gao, come in and sit down." Han Qianluo greeted, and walked into the yard, and Gao Shi naturally followed in with a basket.

Han Qingquan brought out a stool from the room, put it in front of Gao, and said politely, "Sit, Aunt Gao."

"No, no, there are still some things at home, so we can't stay here for too long." Gao waved his hand quickly and said, handing the basket to Han Qianluo, and then said: "Qianluo, count it, isn't it thirty?" egg."

Han Qianluo took the basket, counted the eggs one by one, and put them into his own basket.Thirty eggs were counted quickly, and he put the basket in the yard and said, "Aunt Gao, wait a minute, I'll get you money."

After putting the eggs away, Han Qianluo entered the room, took out ninety Wen and handed it to Mrs. Gao.Gao smiled and took out the copper coins, and said politely: "I'm really sorry, I still need your money." But his actions were not vague at all, and he counted all the ninety copper coins neatly to make sure they were there. After making a mistake, he put the copper coins into the purse, and said goodbye to Han Qianluo with a smile.

After sending Gao away, Han Qianluo began to prepare lunch. The lunch was very simple, and it was almost ready after a while. As long as the side dishes were fried, he could eat. At this moment, he heard someone knocking on his door. The sound of the yard door.

At first Han Qianluo didn't pay attention, she thought her elder brother would go to open the door, but after a while the knocking on the door continued, so she had to put down the side dishes she was about to fry, and went out to open the door.

"Squeak."

Han Qianluo opened the door. He thought it would be someone from Tongli, but unexpectedly, it was someone he didn't know, a middle-aged man, about 40 years old, dressed like an ordinary peasant family.Han Qianluo went through all his memories and was sure he didn't know this person.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?" Han Qianluo asked.

"You are Xiaoluo, you have grown so big, I am your uncle." The middle-aged man said loudly, and at the same time walked into the yard, checking left and right.

Han Qianluo hurried over, stood in front of the middle-aged man, and asked bluntly, "Why didn't I know?" The implication was very simple, just to ask if this person was a fake.

The middle-aged man didn't know whether he didn't understand or what, he didn't react at all, he just saw the stool in the yard, walked over unceremoniously, sat down on his own, and said with a smile: "This kind of seat is really good. That's right, I saw that many nobles in the capital use this kind of seat, but I didn't expect it to look strange, but it's quite comfortable to sit on."

Seeing that the middle-aged man didn't answer her question, Han Qianluo stared at him and asked again: "You said you were my uncle, but I never saw you?"

The middle-aged man touched the back of his neck with his right hand, and said evasively, "Well, this question." But he couldn't answer the question anyway.In such a situation, how could Han Qianluo not be suspicious.Seeing this, the middle-aged man said a little discouraged, "I'm really your uncle, but not my short-lived elder brother. I'm your little uncle."

When the middle-aged man said this, Han Qianluo also remembered that the original owner did have memories of the little uncle, but he had never seen anyone before, and only knew that there was such a little uncle from others. The most important thing was that this The little uncle was kicked out of the family, removed from the genealogy, and not recognized.

"Are you really my little uncle?" Han Qianluo asked suspiciously. It wasn't that she was suspicious. A person who had been expelled for decades suddenly appeared now. There must be a problem. Moreover, was it her little uncle? Uncle, this is also a problem.

The man opened his mouth, and was about to say something, when suddenly the door of the courtyard was opened again, but this time it was Han Qingquan and Sanwei who came in.

Before the three brothers of the Han family could speak, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted in surprise: "Aquan, you are back!"

Han Qianluo was obviously taken aback when he saw his eldest brother, and then said in surprise: "Little uncle, why are you here?"

"I missed you, so I came to take a look." The middle-aged man, that is, Feng Zhi said with a smile, but he seemed a little guilty.

Han Sanwei at the side called out very well: "Uncle."

"So cute." Feng Zhi patted Sanwei's head and said.

Han Qianluo still believed in his elder brother. Seeing that this man was really his uncle, he stopped being entangled. He turned around and went to the kitchen to cook. By the way, he baked some cakes for Feng Zhi. He could hear the conversation between the two people in the yard from time to time.

"Where does little uncle live now?"

"I live next to the capital."

"What is uncle doing?"

"That, is to help people do some odd jobs in the city."

……

Soon, Han Qianluo finished the lunch. Several people sat at the dining table and began to eat. The dinner was full of conversations between Han Qingquan and Feng Zhi. What's special, Han Qianluo just listened quietly and ate silently.

"By the way, I suddenly remembered something."
