Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 211
Huang Lishu clenched the book tightly, but remained silent again.

Seeing him like this, Huang Xiaoying was silent for a while, recalling what happened before, she thought to herself, is it possible that my younger brother is still thinking about Qinglan?At that time Du Xiaoyu mentioned to her that Qinglan had already made it clear to her younger brother, and he had figured it out a long time ago, why is he still struggling with this matter now?

Just as he was thinking about how to speak, he heard a knock on the door. When he went out to see, it was Du Xian and his wife who came with Du Xiaoyu, saying that they were here to congratulate Li Jin on the opening of his shop, so he stopped by to see her , Ask Huang Lishu to go back together.

Huang Xiaoying knew about it, she called them in and gave Du Xiaoyu a wink when she went to pour tea.

Fearing that there was something to whisper, Du Xiaoyu followed.

The kitchen was clean and tidy, and there were two dishes on the stove, which seemed to be leftovers from lunch. Du Xiaoyu stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter, cousin?"

"Isn't it Lishu?" Huang Xiaoying sighed. These younger brothers just don't worry about it. Although she is married, she cares about them all the time. Now it is a lifelong event that concerns Huang Lishu, so how can she be careless? ?She knows her mother's temper best. If she can't find a suitable daughter-in-law, there will be trouble in the future.

"Is it Miss Ruan?" Du Xiaoyu reassured, "Don't worry about it, I think it won't happen. Miss Ruan has also been to our house twice, and I haven't seen her have any interest in Lishu. Auntie is just wishful thinking. Well. What about testing and testing, I think she lacks confidence in her heart, and she will understand sooner or later."

"It's not about this matter. I asked Miss Li Shuruan about it just now, but he told me about it, and he didn't like it. The only thing that bothers me is that this brat actually said that it doesn't matter if he marries anyone." Huang Xiaoying said angrily , "His temperament is different from mine. Even if I marry someone my mother likes, I will do my best in front of my parents-in-law and do my duty as a daughter-in-law, but can he do it? Then he will harm other girls, and he may have to fight every day. trouble."

Du Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing, what Huang Xiaoying said was right, now he is talking nonsense, if he really wants to marry, he will definitely regret it.

"Do you think I can take it easy?" Huang Xiaoying said in a low voice, "I reckon it might have something to do with Qinglan."

"Really?" Du Xiaoyu frowned, Qinglan is living a very good life now, managing Qin's grocery store well, Qin also likes her very much, and asked Aunt Wu to find her a door last time What about marriage?

"Actually, I'm not sure." Huang Xiaoying sighed, "He's been in the county for a long time, and it's unlikely that he will see Qinglan..."

"I'll test it out when he goes back this time, cousin, don't worry." Du Xiaoyu grinned, and went out with tea.

Du Xian and his wife walked around in the yard, Zhao said with a smile, "This place is really nice, you are going to buy a yard in the county anyway, has your mother mentioned this?"

The restaurant's business has been very good, and it has earned a lot of money, and the Lin family's paper horse shop can make money. Zhao Dongzhi also wanted to let them buy one, so as to save the inconvenience of renting someone else's yard.

"I said it, but I haven't found a suitable one yet." Huang Xiaoying also glanced around, "My husband and I are really used to living here."

"It's fine if you like it. Tell that family when you want to sell it to you." Mrs. Zhao made a suggestion, but seeing that it was almost late, several people said goodbye to Huang Xiaoying and went back to the county gate by car. .

Knowing that Li Yuanqing was coming, Du Xian started preparing dinner as soon as he got home, catching chickens in the chicken coop and fish in the pond, he was extremely busy.

Du Qingqiu came back from Aunt Wu's house, clapped his hands and said, "Is that brother coming?"

Du Xiaoyu laughed and said, "Mother, you can see that Qingqiu, as long as the second brother comes, dad must be so busy." He patted Du Qingqiu's head again, "You're right, that brother is coming today Have a meal."

Du Qingqiu is a glutton, so he immediately smiled.

After a while, the three of Du Wentao also came home from the private school. Seeing Huang Lishu, the four of them huddled together, talking and laughing around.

In the evening, Li Yuanqing really appeared at the door, after a few months, it seemed like years had passed.

He behaved as usual, smiling and calling his father and mother. On the contrary, Du Xian and his wife were very unnatural. The last time the Lin family came over, they still felt pressured. It's inappropriate, but it's not easy to say it, so the expression is very complicated.

Li Yuanqing also saw it, and said with a smile, "You raised me so big, so it's called foster father and foster mother, right?"

"Okay, okay, good boy." Du Xian nodded again and again, this title is appropriate.

After greeting him and sitting down, Mrs. Zhao sized him up and said, "You seem to be thinner. You don't need to work so hard. Just let the people below do what you're doing."

Li Yuanqing said, "I know, it's just that it's better to do it yourself when you first take office, and I will be a little free in the future. I was very busy a while ago." He was explaining why he didn't come.

Du Xian hurriedly said, "If you really don't have time, don't come here. It's tiring to go back and forth, so it doesn't matter to us."

Du Xiaoyu was looking at his hand, Li Yuanqing blinked at her, then shook his arm slightly, indicating that he was completely healed, and then she smiled.

Du Xian went to the kitchen to make food, and Du Xiaoyu also wanted to help, but was stopped by Mrs. Zhao, "You talk with Wen Yuan, and I will help inside. By the way, ask Huang Hua to come over too. She is going to the capital next month. gone."

Li Yuanqing was not surprised to hear this. Bai Yushi is currently staying in the capital as an official, and he may be permanent in the future. It is always bad for the couple not to be together, so it is also expected that Du Huanghua will go there. Smiled, that's a good thing, the two of them can still be together well now, which is enough to comfort the family.

"I'll go to Bai's house with you." Li Yuanqing stood up.

The two went out.

It was already early autumn, the weather was cool, and the rice on both sides of the field began to turn yellow and golden, waiting for the planters to harvest in a few days.

The clouds drifted far away, and the sky above was a large area of ​​blue color.

Li Yuanqing has been busy with government affairs for the past few days, and seeing these scenes now, he immediately felt a lot more relaxed, feeling comfortable and comfortable.

Du Xiaoyu didn't speak, because suddenly he couldn't find anything to say, so he just walked forward silently.

"Li Jin won't help you anymore?" He asked.

Du Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise, "How do you know? Oh, did you see that his shop opened today?"

"I heard about it a few days ago." He smiled.

"Father borrowed money to open it for him."

"Oh?" Li Yuanqing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Du Xian to be so optimistic about Li Jin that he was willing to pay for him. He couldn't help asking, "Why would the foster father think of doing this?"

"Naturally there is a reason." Du Xiaoyu said vaguely, "Li Jin has been in our house for so many years, father believes in his character, and the money is kept, so he can help others by lending it out. He Le Instead of?"

"Is it just like that?" Didn't you invest because you wanted to be a son-in-law?Li Yuanqing stared at her face, knowing that she wasn't telling the truth, so he smiled and said, "Li Jin is actually pretty good, after the shop is ready, maybe the adoptive father will ask him to come to propose marriage."

Du Xiaoyu pursed her lips. Of course Du Xian meant it, but she had already made it clear, and immediately raised her eyebrows again, "No, I've already agreed, I will choose my husband."

Pick yourself?Li Yuanqing's heart suddenly rose, "This year? Or next year?"

Those eyes were burning, a little anxious, Du Xiaoyu looked into his eyes, and frowned slightly, but felt that he must have read it wrong, even if Li Yuanqing cared about her, it shouldn't be an expression of anxiety.

Just like she once thought about Li Yuanqing's marriage, if the Lin family wanted him to marry a girl she didn't like, she would also sympathize and find ways to help him.

She lowered her head, "How do I know, it's just a year or two."

"Then where do you go to find it? Is it appropriate for a girl to pick a man to be her husband? Besides, you think you can find it for sure?" Li Yuanqing's tone became a little more serious. Although she has become special since she was seven years old, but It can't be too out of the ordinary.

When it comes to Du Xiaoyu's sore spot, she actually has no idea in her heart at all. She is so entangled in the matter of marriage because she is not from this era.

She couldn't accept living with someone she didn't like. It was unimaginable that they got married after only meeting a few times!

So she has been resisting this model, and fortunately, her parents are very democratic, perhaps because of their love for her, this persistence has become possible.

But how long it will last is too hard to predict.

Seeing her frown, Li Yuanqing said again, "Then tell me what are the requirements? I can also help you pay attention, not to mention the county, I know quite a few talented people even in the capital."

Du Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "The capital? Is there any son in the capital who would like to marry a peasant girl?" It's only possible if his head is broken!

"Why is it impossible? I'm your second brother." Li Yuanqing said, "Quickly ask for it, you're going to go to the eldest sister's house."

Require?She didn't ask for anything, and after thinking about it, she said, "It's all about being pleasing to the eye, being a good character, and being good to me... No, no, what's the use of saying these things? I can't do it if I don't like it. "

Sure enough, the future is dangerous, and Li Yuan is angry, so this requirement is to like that person, and other external things don't count!

Then it is possible if she falls in love with a farmer one day...

The two were talking when they heard a familiar voice from the front, "Ms. Du."

Du Xiaoyu looked up, wasn't it Ruan Yu?

She stood there pretty, but her gaze was not on her, but on Li Yuanqing's face, and then Du Xiaoyu heard her say something with a sigh in her voice, "Mr. Are you all right?"
