Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 268

Xiuyao knew that he had something to say, but there were too many people, so she was embarrassed to say it.

She hurriedly said: "Brother, let's go to the farm to have a look. After selling the pigs, are there enough piglets now?"

As soon as she and Qin Ye left, Xiuqin immediately dragged Xiurong away.

Xu Zhenyi was grateful for Xiuyao's fulfillment, and said to Xiuxian with a smile: "Your family is really getting better and better now, it's only been a few years, it's really amazing."

Xiuxian immediately said proudly: "That's right, it's because Yaoyao has good brains, and my father and brother are capable."

Xu Zhenyi looked at her proud look, and laughed, "You are also very capable, and your sisters have a good relationship."

Xiuxian chuckled and said, "That's right."

She walked with Xu Zhenyi for a few steps and sent them to the intersection.

Xu Zhenyi stopped suddenly, his chest heaved uncontrollably, his cheeks suddenly turned red, his eyes fixed on Xiuxian, he seemed to be unable to say anything, he felt uncomfortable.

Xiuxian looked at him in surprise, and said with concern: "Xu Zhenyi, are you sick? Is it too hot, heatstroke?"

Xu Zhenyi hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head, took two steps back, took a deep breath, let go of the dizziness, and said: "Xiu, Xiuxian, you, you are fifteen this year."

Xiuxian nodded, "Yes."

Xu Zhenyi asked again: "Then, are there a lot of people coming to propose marriage?"

Xiuxian waved her hands and smiled, "Where is it? I don't have it. I'm so fierce, who dares to take it."

Every time Mrs. Zhang saw her being aggressive, she would say, "Erman, be quiet, you are so old, who would dare to marry you if you are so aggressive."

Xu Zhenyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and the blue sky and white clouds seemed to be reflected in his eyes, black and bright, as if filled with a world, open and bright, full of joy.

"Xiu Xian, that, that, what do you think of me?"

Xiu Xian nodded, "You are very good, capable, powerful, loyal, cheerful and optimistic, you are a good young man."

Xu Zhenyi looked at her happily, "Really? You really think I'm good, then me, then if I, if..."

He has always been steady, clear-headed, and his speech has always been very organized. It's just that this matter has entangled him for a long time, but he couldn't make it out, and he didn't know what to do.

Today, I also heard from the village aunt that the Qin family is getting better and better, and that the second man in the family is about to marry her. Many young people are worried about it. Although they are a bit aggressive, the conditions of the Qin family are good now, and the dowry must be good.

As soon as he heard it, he became anxious, he didn't care about the dowry, but he couldn't stand the pungent Xiu Xian being preempted by others.

So, on impulse, he told his mother to come and see his aunt.

The drunkard doesn't mean wine.

If it's about it, no matter if it's Xiuqin Xiurong or Xiuyao, once he mentions it, they will understand.

But Xiuxian is different, she is the most annoying person who beats around the bush, she said Xu Zhenyi is good because she thinks he never cheats on her, unlike those self-proclaimed smart people who always think that she is straight-tempered, less thoughtful, and has nothing to say The roundabout words teased her.

Seeing him doing the same now, she became anxious.

As soon as she was in a hurry, Xu Zhenyi became even more anxious, couldn't help but went straight to the point, and got to the point, without caring about laying the groundwork first to avoid the girl's thin-skinned and embarrassing things.

"Xiuxian, that, I mean, I like you, do you like me? If it were me, I would ask someone to propose marriage, you, would you refuse?"

Xiuxian was stunned, this, that... propose marriage?
When did this happen?

And don't you have to mention it with your parents when you propose marriage?Why did he still mention it to her?
If she agrees to this and people find out, won't she become the woman who steals men as those gossip women talk about when they chew their tongues?
No, I'm too ashamed to panic!

As soon as she stamped her foot, she turned around and ran away, "I, I still have something to do, you can go by yourself."

Xu Zhenyi stood there in a daze, did he agree or disagree?
At this time, Xiuyao's giggling came from behind the crape myrtle tree, and she said with a smile: "Brother Xu, if you want to propose marriage, you can ask someone to tell my mother, my second sister listens to my mother."

When Xu Zhenyi heard it, she was ecstatic, and hurriedly turned her head to give Xiuyao a long bow, "Thank you sister Xiuyao for your guidance."

Xiuyao waved her hand, "I didn't say anything, if my mother thinks it's suitable, then it will be done."

Xu Zhenyi thanked her repeatedly, and then walked away in a hurry, walking briskly on the road, her mind racing, and discussing with her mother, who should be the matchmaker?
Aunt?

But she's a widow, okay?
After thinking about it again, it seems that my family and Zhou Qiang's family can also climb a little bit, so what, wouldn't it be best to let my aunt and grandma agree?

But my aunt always loves to save face, if she can't do it, she will feel ashamed, so let Zhang Guifang try.

Now that the conditions of the Qin family are better, they live a happy life, even the old Qin and his wife are comfortable.

This year, the three daughters all returned to their natal homes, especially Aunt Qin, whose mother-in-law specially asked her to bring gifts to Mrs. Zhang.Second Aunt Qin made a lot of money because the man came to help her eldest brother's house, and her mother-in-law became more polite to her.Third Aunt Qin's parents-in-law are long gone. After Ji Dali was inadvertently dealt with by Qi Feng once, he also restrained himself a lot. Now he and Song Yuan'er's men are helping out at the farm in Shahe Village.

The only fly in the ointment is that there is no great-grandson to hug.

This is not as good as Second Grandma.

Xiuqin stayed here for a few days, and she was also thinking about Xiuxian.

When she was sleeping at night, she discussed with Liu Shi, "Mother, Xiuxian is not too young, there must be a lot of people who come to propose marriage."

Back then when the family was poor, there were so many people who came to propose marriage to her, and Xiuxian was more capable, and the family conditions were good, so naturally there would be more.

Liu Shi is still thinking about it, "Yes, but I haven't thought about it."

Xiuqin smiled and said: "Mother, what else is there to think about? Let's see how the conditions of the house are, and then ask someone to find out how the character is. As long as it is good and matches Xiuxian well, it's fine. If you don't Yes, then I have a candidate, there is a Bai Xiucai in our village, his son is 19 years old, and he is also a scholar now."

Mrs. Liu laughed as soon as she heard it, "That's about the same as what I planned. I thought that people said to marry a daughter with one's head up, and marry a wife with one's head down. Based on our previous conditions, if you marry the old Bai's family, it's up to us to get married." Yes. Xiuxian now, our family is better. If she marries someone who is not as good as ours, I’m afraid she will be wronged. And I still look down on us. The white scholar you mentioned, I also met that time when I sent Tommy off. He is a nice person. But he is a scholar, so naturally he can marry a better one. Isn’t there a bigger family in your place? , when the time comes to get married, it is not better, people may not like us."

Xiuqin hurriedly said: "Mother, even if they are scholars, but our second brother and Yang Yang study, they will definitely be scholars in the future, how can they be worse than them?"

Mrs. Liu shook her head, "That's also the future. Your second sister is big and illiterate, and if she goes to a scholar's house, she will be scolded. If it's Yaoyao, I don't worry. It's inappropriate for her not to marry a scholar. "

The little girl has so many eyes and eyes, and she can read and write. I'm afraid she won't be able to marry a reckless man.

Naturally, Xiuqin wanted her younger sister to marry to the Baijiatuan, so it would be better to be with her, to be with her sister, and to have a helper.

But Mrs. Liu has to think about it. She has already asked Aunt Zhao to find out that a son whose family is similar to her own is suitable for marrying, and the mother-in-law is also good-natured and easy to get along with. The son is not the kind of incompetent bastard who needs to be assertive Yes, after screening like this, there are really not many.

If you want to find it again, you have to go far and talk.

It's not that she is too poor to afford food, and the Liu family is reluctant to let her daughter marry far away and not be able to reach her mother's house for a few days.

These two daughters have been capable since they were young, and the adults don't care much about them, so that's fine. This is a lifelong event of getting married, and Liu Shi feels that she can't treat her badly.

You have to pick one carefully.

Moreover, there is one thing that is absolute, my daughter, Nuhong, is not very good, I am afraid that many mother-in-laws will be cold-faced.

Xiuxian's temperament is not one to read people's faces.

Mrs. Liu just revealed such a meaning, there is an endless stream of people who come to propose marriage to Xiu Xian, but Mrs. Liu doesn't like to tell lies, her daughter is not a female celebrity, and her temper is not so euphemistic and gentle. Nothing is hidden.

In this way, more than half of them went away, and the rest, or they were so poor that they came for the wealth of the Qin family, saying that they were generously accompanied by a dowry, and it didn't matter if they didn't know how to work as a female worker.

Naturally, the Liu family doesn't want this.

Also, if the son has defects, such as ugly, lame, stuttering, etc., Liu naturally doesn't want it.

After choosing and choosing, the marriage of the two daughters is not so easy to handle.

Mrs. Zhang, three aunts, Lao Liu's family, and Lao Bai's family all helped to find it.

In short, it was not so satisfactory, and Aunt Zhao was allowed to talk, so she had to talk far away.

That day, Zhang Guifang and other shopkeeper Feng in the county sent someone to take away a batch of cloth, so she tidied up a little, and instead of riding a donkey, she walked back to Taoyuan Village, to Lao Qin's house.

Mrs. Liu is talking to a matchmaker at home, so when she sees her, hurry up and let her in.

The matchmaker had a pair of smiling eyes, dressed festively, combed his shiny hair, and smiled all over his face.

"Sister-in-law, don't say I'm boasting. I'm speaking from the heart. The family I introduced is really kind. My son is smart and capable, and he loves others. The family has a large house, more than you. Landlord It’s also a large area, and there must be a five or six hundred acres. The mother-in-law is not in good health and is sick all day long. It seems that she can’t survive for two years. From now on, there will be a father-in-law who doesn’t care much, and your second daughter will go , that's not the master who says one and the same!"

When Zhang Guifang heard this, she immediately pricked up her ears, and said with a smile, "Hey, which family are you talking about?"

The matchmaker immediately became vigilant and refused to speak directly while laughing.

Zhang Guifang smiled and said, "I'm not a matchmaker. I'm a relative of my sister-in-law's family, and we weaved together."

Mrs. Liu also said yes, and the matchmaker heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "From here, three hundred miles north, there is a Gaojiazhuang in Changqing County, old Gao's, you just go and inquire."

Zhang Guifang said: "It's so far away, it will take a lot of effort to find out."

The matchmaker smiled, "I've been a matchmaker for 40 years, but I've never lied to anyone. I've matched countless good marriages, and even the grandson wants me to say kiss again."

Mrs. Liu thought about the family she was talking about, and it sounded good, it seemed the most ideal. Seeing that she was moved, the matchmaker didn't stay long and left.

Zhang Guifang listened to Liu's words, and said, "Sister-in-law, why am I thinking that something is wrong? If it's really so good, why do I have to go three hundred miles away to find someone?"

Generally speaking, people in the country like to talk about their relatives, or they like to talk about them nearby, because they can see what they are like, and it is best to know the basics.

If you go far away, it is inconvenient to go on a blind date. Many of them are matchmakers walking around, and the in-laws have never met before.

It is not until the wedding day that the bride and groom know what each other is like.

If you don't like it then it's too late.

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Anyway, listen first. People say that the old lady is weak, and she is afraid that she will make a taboo if she gets close. Besides, it is not good to say that the girl was the one who rushed her. But I guarantee that the son is good. When the time comes, let the son Come and see each other."

When Zhang Guifang heard this, she quickly swallowed her own words, and said with a smile: "If you come to see me, my sister-in-law can let me come to see it too. I'm fine with Xiuxian, and I have to hold her eyes."

Liu naturally agreed.

Within two days, the matchmaker came again and told Liu Shi that he had made an appointment to bring that brother to have a look.

Midsummer knows how to neigh, the days are long and the nights are short, people are sleepy and dogs are exhausted.

Xiuyao went to the farm to patrol around in the morning, made some adjustments, and then led Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai home, lying on the rocking chair under the big willow tree to enjoy the cool air.Xiuqin had just sent a letter to ask about Liu Shixiuxian's marriage. If not, then consider Bai Xiucai's family. Anyway, they are familiar people and know everything.

It is said that Bai Xiucai is handsome and gentle, very gentle and kind, which complements Xiuxian's pungent temperament.

Regarding family matters, Xiuyao has always respected her family's wishes and helped them as much as she could, but she didn't want to express her opinion on this matter.

After all, there is Xu Zhenyi, who knows what the second sister means, it seems that Zhang Guifang wants to marry Xu Zhenyi, but the strange thing is that she has not spoken.Xiuyao felt that it might be because the family is better now, and the Xu family felt a little bit wrong.

Especially since the Xu family still has several sons, it's Xu Zhenyi's turn that he might not have much money to hold a nice wedding.

Xiuyao is not worried about this point, if the second sister likes it, and Xu Zhenyi is capable, even if she has no money, it doesn't matter if she has to pay for it, if she can't, she will give the money from her private house to the second sister.

I just don't know if Xu Zhenyi's parents get along well, not to mention the second aunt and the third aunt, even if they are Zhang's, the second sister is quite embarrassing.

She quietly asked Di Dan and others to help her inquire. It is easier for children to inquire, and it does not arouse suspicion.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Xiao Hei suddenly stood up with a vigilant look on his face. Xiao Bai bit an embroidered shoe that Xiuyao couldn't fit, and played after his own tail. At this time, it also turned to look over.

"Ho-ho--" Xiao Hei made a terrifying sound, which frightened the two people who were about to come over there and dared not move forward.

Xiuyao hurriedly stopped it, "Go and herd the sheep!"

Xiao Hei wagged his tail beside her, gave Xiao Bai two oohs, and led Xiao Bai to the farm.
