The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 435 Little Fatty’s Plan (4)
"You built this house!" Entering the spacious courtyard of the Chen family, Su Xiazhi stopped in front of the main house, and looked up at the slender three-story building in front of him, which looked more and more like a gun tower!
"Hey! Nothing can be hidden from my aunt's eyes." The little fat man also stood beside Su Xiazhi and looked up at his masterpiece, "Hey" and said with a smile: "I can see clearly from the side of the village when I stand on the bench !"

"Bah! What village! Do you want to see when the table is set at my house?" Su Xiazhi glanced at him, and walked towards the stone table and bench in front of the house: "Sit outside, it's hot inside. "

The little fat man waved his hand, signaling for his servants to make tea and prepare fruits, while he himself sat down with Su Xiazhi.

There was a cattail leaf fan on the stone table, and Su Xiazhi picked it up as soon as he sat down, and said while fanning: "It's done, it's just the two of us, pour out that little thing in your stomach, don't hold back! "

"Hey! Hey!" The little fat man grinned, showing a mouthful of neat teeth, and said with a smile: "Auntie, guess it!"

'Snapped'!Su Xiazhi raised her hand with a fan and patted him on the head: "I still guess? There will be a prize for guessing right?"

"Don't be silly, I'm busy!"

The servant, who was as thin as a straw, came over with a large tray, bowed down and put it on the stone table, and then retreated consciously with a wink.

Su Xiazhi pursed her lips: "It's so pitiful, this child, the wind can blow it away! What's the matter with you? You don't want to give people food and drink?"

"He's the only one who is so skinny in the family, so it's useful for me to stay in front of me." The little fat man got up, poured water and passed melons and fruits for Su Xiazhi with his own hands, looking like a dutiful son and grandson.

"Auntie, try this tea, it is said to be a new tea before the rain..."

Su Xiazhi took a sip of the drink, tasted the taste, and felt that the tea brewed in the big teapot at home was better, but his tea was too weak.

"Auntie, I think you mean you are arranging things at home?" The little fat man turned around and sat on the stone bench, and asked cautiously.

"See? Then my aunt won't hide it from you. Your uncle is going to Beijing to take up his post, so my aunt has to follow. It may not be a few years. There are so many things at home, so I have to make arrangements for a while." Su Xiazhi put down With the teacup in his hand, he waved the cattail fan in his hand.

"Auntie...I want...to ask you something." The little fat man spoke slowly, as if he was choosing his words carefully.

Su Xiazhi looked at him with a cool breeze, and motioned for him to continue.

"Your family's three daughters look good to me, give me one to be my daughter-in-law!" The little fat man looked up at Su Xiazhi, and there was no sense of shame when he said these words, as if discussing business as calm.

'Snapped'!The cattail fan in Su Xiazhi's hand came out and hit Chen Guanxi's body directly and fell to the ground: "What's wrong with my three daughters? It's not that my family can't afford it, they're just a little older, you'll be thinking about this thing, And give you one as a daughter-in-law? Do you know what a daughter-in-law does?"

As soon as she mentioned her daughter, Su Xiazhi, she immediately became anxious. In her heart, the oldest of the girls was only less than ten years old, and they were all children, and it suddenly occurred to her that these children would marry sooner or later. Su Xiazhi's heart was like She seemed to be picked off all of a sudden, and she felt like she was in decline!
"Auntie, don't worry." The little fat man bent down and picked up the cattail fan that fell on the ground, and handed it to Su Xiazhi with both hands: "I'll tell you the truth, when I first saw you, I made an oath, I will definitely marry your daughter in the future, if you don't believe me, you can ask my father!"

"What? You haven't held your fart all this time!" Su Xiazhi took the fan and beat him hard: "I said, why do you keep running to my house lately...you're still so young!"

"Auntie! Auntie! Listen to me." The little fat man smiled and avoided Su Xiazhi's fear of beating, and took the time to say: "Yiyi is my sister, I don't dare to think what I shouldn't, I know you don't like her either I!"

Not one by one?Su Xiazhi stopped the movements of her hands, panted and said, "It's not that Auntie doesn't like you, it's just that you also said that one by one is the younger sister. Auntie thinks they are too young..."

"I've fallen in love with Jiaojiao. She also thinks I'm good." The little fat man said sternly, "I'm just afraid that if you bring her to the capital in the future, I...I won't see her...so I want to beg you Promise her to me, and I will marry her when she grows up!"

"Huh? Jiaojiao also thinks you are good?" Su Xiazhi frowned, carefully recalling Jiaojiao's words and deeds these days, and didn't feel that this child has a tendency of "puppy love"...

"Yes." The little fat man nodded solemnly.

"That won't work!" Su Xiazhi still resolutely refused: "Auntie doesn't look down on you, but I have to explain to you: the younger sisters in Auntie's family are too young, and even according to our Daliang rules, you will get a lot of money if you propose a marriage." When I entered the girl's house when I was 12 years old?"

"So, if you really have this idea, aunt will not stop you, and develop your skills! If you can marry the daughter of my Min family to be my son-in-law, I must choose a young man who has both ability and political integrity, and nothing less! "

The little fat man was a little disappointed, but after listening to Su Xiazhi's words, he was no longer in despair.

He still asked very calmly with a negotiating posture: "Auntie, you are rejecting me, right?"

"If you say it doesn't count, then it doesn't count."

"That's it!" The little fat man let out a sigh of relief: "I will also arrange to go. When you arrive in the capital, I will be there. By the way, have you chosen your house in the capital? There is another house next door." There is no empty courtyard…”

When leaving Chen's house, Su Xiazhi made up her mind: When looking for a house in the capital, she must choose a place with no vacant houses or yards within a few miles...

After returning home, she pulled Jiaojiao closer to the kitchen to help pick vegetables, Su Xiazhi talked to her a few words, pretending to be nonchalant and said: "Our house cooks a lot of vegetables today, it would be nice if the little fat man came over. There must be none left."

Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled, squatting on the ground and continuing to pick vegetables without interrupting.

"Girl, we are going to Beijing in two months. Auntie is quite reluctant to part with our village. Are you willing?"

Jiaojiao's action of picking vegetables slowed down, she paused for a while, and then said softly: "I used to be reluctant to part with my mother, but now I am reluctant to part with my sisters and our home...Auntie, you will take me with you." Shall we go together?"
