A leisurely life with Lingquan

Chapter 131 Banquet (2)
Watching Lu's drinking cup by cup and eating small dishes, I really didn't see that she could drink besides eating.

There were quite a few people sitting at this table, besides Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Qian also gathered together. Those who didn't know the degree of intimacy thought they were such close old sisters.

Li Xi doesn't like drinking, so she chooses what she likes to eat. The third aunt and Mrs. Wang are at the other table. She has no friends, so she talks to Mrs. Zhang next to her from time to time, but Mrs. Zhang seems to be in a bad mood today. Great, talking to her was just a few perfunctory words. Someone came up to ask for a few words of congratulations, but her face turned even worse.

"You are going to marry Zhao Mu."

Li Xi didn't understand, she and Yan Yu probably had nothing to talk about, and now they're talking again.

"Yes, I'm going to have a cup of wedding wine then." Li Xi said with a smile, not caring about the little girl.

Yan Yu smiled slightly, and said softly: "You can see clearly, my brother is not something you can imagine."

He started talking normally, but sure enough, his style still hasn't changed, Li Xi couldn't figure out how proud Yan Yu was of having a brother like Yan Qing.

"Of course I understand. I can see who is reliable or not." Li Xi said coolly with a faint smile.

As soon as Yan Yu frowned, she was not stupid and naturally understood what Li Xi said, is it reliable?It means that her brother is unreliable.

"My brother is now a Juren." Yan Yu doesn't like Li Xi. She was the first to object when Yan Qing and him had a conversation, but she has always felt that Li Xi wanted to win over her brother, but now The former spoke with disgust, and she was upset again. Her brother is so good, can a disfigured person say that?
Li Xi shrugged: "Really? Congratulations, Master Juren's sister."

"..."

Although Li Xi said 'congratulations', Yan Yu didn't feel it. She always felt that there was a strong innuendo in it. There were so many people talking at the same table, and she also attracted attention. She didn't want to be gossiped, Finally endured it, and immediately decided that it was better not to talk to this person in the future.

"Mother, you drank a lot, eat something and relax later."

Without talking to Yan Yu, Li Xi watched a table of people, and his eyes paused for a while on the second daughter-in-law of the Lu family who was speaking.

The second daughter-in-law of the Lu family, the Liu family, was the daughter-in-law who was going to tell Zhao Dahai first, and was about to make a marriage, but she regretted it, and later became the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

The woman next to Mrs. Liu is her cousin, Mrs. Wu, who is also from Qingliu Village, but she is a widow, her husband died long ago, and she was the one who said the original marriage, because she is related to Mrs. Liu. It's just that Zhao Dahai was originally agreed, but he changed his mind temporarily and let Mrs. Liu marry Mrs. Lu's second son. Zhao Shan and his third aunt didn't want to see her like this, and the villagers looked at her more or less strangely.

Originally, after the death of Wu’s husband, she brought a son to live. The family had a house and land, but she didn’t want to farm the land, so she rented the land to others and got rations. , and later became a matchmaker, but after Liu's incident, who would dare to let her be a matchmaker, there is no way to make money, but her son is old and capable, and the fields will come back, and the son and wife are married. Life is good now.

"Go and see San'er, don't go crazy, I don't see anyone now." Mrs. Lu was already slightly drunk, and she liked the second daughter-in-law very much, so she gave her two winks and said, "And your sister-in-law. "

Mrs. Liu's mind is relatively active, and belongs to the very slippery kind, otherwise Mrs. Lu would not pay special attention to it: "San'er and the two couples of the Li family are playing. Don't worry, you won't be hungry." Speaking of Sister-in-law smiled again: "Sister-in-law went back early, mother, please drink less, the troupe is about to start singing, let's go and see."

Theatrical troupes are not common, especially on this kind of day, Lu Shi is naturally very interested, nodded and said: "Let's go, let's go." Turning to look at Qian Shi: "Sister-in-law is going too, I heard that today's singing It’s a new play in town, and it’s pretty good.”

"Okay, let's go, I asked my Ping'er to occupy a seat with a stool, how about your family?" Qian is in a good mood today, after all, one of the protagonists is his own son, so even if it is not pleasing to the eye Li Xi didn't say anything, just rolled his eyes a few times.

"Mother, don't worry, I've got a seat for you too." Seeing that Mrs. Lu seemed to be worried, Mrs. Liu hurriedly said.

Mrs. Lu was very satisfied, and kept clapping Mrs. Liu's hand: "You are still sensible. Your sister-in-law has gone back so early, and she doesn't know where to take her place." In her words, she looked down on the eldest daughter-in-law, Unsatisfactory.

"Oh, your daughter-in-law married well." Qian praised: "Oh, I don't know when I will be able to drink my daughter-in-law's tea."

"Why are you so worried? Look how good your Lizhou is. He is a scholar now. What kind of daughter-in-law can't get married." Mrs. Lu's words really touched Mrs. Qian's heart, and she was so happy Unable to close: "Zhou'er, just work hard."

Seeing the two compliments over there, Li Xi was silent for a while, then glanced at Mrs. Liu, she had never seen her move her seat after coming, occupying a seat or something, but she saw Mrs. Lu's eldest daughter-in-law Mrs. Sun went to the troupe.

A few days after the incident of the two scholars in Qingliu Village, the craze has passed, and Li Xi and Zhao Mu's wedding date is coming soon, and she is also preparing to pack her things and go to Li Liu'er's house in the river to wait for the wedding. Due to special circumstances, there is no such thing as engagement, but other procedures for combining horoscopes are available. Li Liuer, the elder sister, is also competent, and she found a good matchmaker to teach Li Xi.

"Xi'er, I'll bring Tianzhuang here today." Because Li Xi was going to get married in Xiahe, the third aunt couldn't go there, so I brought Tianzhuang first.

Li Xi smiled embarrassedly: "Third Aunt is being polite."

The third aunt waved her hand: "You...the people in the Li family treat you badly. It's only once in a girl's family that she gets married once in her life, so she must be good."

"Thank you, Third Aunt." Although Third Aunt's makeup is not precious jewelry, it is also a heartfelt gesture.

Afterwards, the second aunt Zhang and Xiao Zhang also came to give gift money and make-up. When Zhao Mu came back from the field at night, he also said that he would go to Xiahe sister's place in two days and wait for her marriage. Prepared properly, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, the smile on Zhao Muxing's face can't be stopped these days, Li Xi always feels silly looking at it, it's almost like going back to the past.
