Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 360 Settlement (1)

People from the Zhou family came very quickly. To be precise, within three days after Chunqiu and her parents confessed, Zhou Mingfeng brought Zhou Huaiyan and the family servants came over in a mighty manner.

At that time, her mother Yuan Shi and her father Yang Weibo did not leave the house, but what did they talk about in the house?Chunqiu didn't know, because she was still locked in the room by her mother to reflect on herself, but after this incident, Chunqiu was released by her mother.

Moreover, the Zhou family and the Yang family have also set a wedding date because of their affairs, which will be in August of the next year.

"Mother, what are you talking about? This matter is settled?" Chunqiu opened his mouth wide in shock, there was no way, it was too surprising.

"What? Didn't you tell us before? Shouldn't you be happy now that it's settled?" Yuan Shi was a little annoyed at her daughter's surprised appearance.

Puzzled by her mother, she didn't know what to say, Chunqiu touched her nose embarrassingly, "Mother, didn't I forget? Besides, isn't it too early to decide next year?" Chunqiu couldn't help shaking his head in his heart, next year I just turned 15, okay? It's too early.

"It's not too early." Looking at her daughter, Yuan continued, "Look at your eldest sister Chunni, wasn't she 15 when she got married? Look now, the child is 3 years old, and the second child will be born soon. Lai, why don't you hurry up and wait until the old lady sees if anyone wants you?"

Chunqiu took advantage of the situation and said, "Why not, senior brother will." She believed that Zhou Huaiyan would not mind her staying for a few more years.

"Hmph, little girl with no conscience, is it right for you to forget your mother when you have a senior brother?" Yuan Shi pretended to be very angry and said, Chunqiu also smiled "giggle" while covering the corner of her mouth. Finally, Yuan Shi also Unable to hold back any longer, the mother and daughter covered the corners of their mouths and laughed together...

Now that this matter has been settled, Chunqiu can't help but go back on his own. Although Chunqiu is not satisfied with the matter of getting married next year, he can't hold back his arms after all. Also, Zhou Huaiyan will be 18 next year, and he is not young. It's not good, having said so much, Chunqiu is nothing more than finding an excuse for herself to say that she has no reason to refute the marriage next year. At 22, Chunqiu likes Zhou Huaiyan very much, and it doesn't matter how old she is when she gets married.

Before getting married, you don't need to worry about things like big and small dating. Her mother will take care of it for her directly, including when she gets married, how much her dowry will be, and her mother will list them one by one. In the past few days, Even though the Spring and Autumn ban had been lifted, she did not leave the house because her mother dragged her to discuss her dowry.

The Zhou family does not have a mistress, so after Chunqiu enters the house, she must be the housekeeper, so these days, Yuan Shi has also given Chunqiu all the experiences she had when she was young, so that after she gets married in the future, she will not be at a loss because of these things.

"Mother, it's still early?" Chunqiu said helplessly, holding the account book her mother handed her to practice.

In the past two days, her mother has used the family's ledger to train Chunqiu, in the name of letting her get acquainted with the housekeeper as soon as possible.

However, it will be a full year before she gets married. Does her mother feel a little anxious for her to train now?

Thinking about it, Chunqiu directly said what was in his mouth, but in the end he got the contemptuous eyes of her mother, Yuan Shi.

"Silly girl, this year's time is very tight. If you don't learn now, how will you have time?" Yuan Shi reached out and touched Chunqiu's little head, and explained, "You think it's not just the housekeeper's problem, Don’t you have to make things like the wedding dress yourself? The sewing girl has already bought the materials for the wedding dress, and you can go to my room to get it back by yourself.”

"Wedding dress? Mother, I see." It turned out that the wedding dress was embroidered by the woman herself. Chunqiu remembered the wedding dress her eldest sister had embroidered for three years when she got married.

"Okay, let's learn quickly..." Yuan said no more, and lowered his head to discuss the issue of Chunqiu's dowry. Chunqiu took a look, picked up the abacus at the side, and silently calculated.

The days passed quickly, time slipped from September to October, the weather became colder and colder, Chunqiu had closed the thick cloth, this month, Chunqiu and Zhou Huaiyan did not see each other again, there was a lot of love between them. Correspondence, the envelope occasionally talks about interesting events and recent developments and so on.

By the way, my uncle entrusted someone to send a message to their family a few days ago, saying that my uncle sent someone to send it. The second sister Chunhua is already engaged and will be married next spring.

Listening to what her mother said, Chunqiu thought that the three little sisters of the Yang family were going to get married. When they were young, they had played together, and they were going to be married in a blink of an eye. The time had to make people feel emotional.

Chunqiu herself is going to get engaged next month, and the news has already been sent home when the third uncle sent a message. Presumably, the family will be surprised when they find out, maybe not, after all, she is old enough to get married People are also normal.

Because an engagement is not a marriage, her mother, Yuan Shi, did not give any gifts other than a verbal congratulations. The eldest sister Chunni is almost the same, they are all sisters, and her mother will not treat one more than another.

By the way, besides Sister Chunhua's engagement, there is another thing that the elder brother Yang Chunjun also engaged in an engagement. The woman she got is the daughter of Wu Shan's family in Heishan Town. , but he is also a young talent in the entire Heishan Town. Such conditions will naturally attract many people to marry their daughters to him. In the end, because of the kindness between Wu Shanren and the Yang family, Yang Chunming also likes this daughter of the Wu family very much. The marriage is finally settled. By the way, the marriage is scheduled for the tenth day of the next month, which is also the official time of the twelfth lunar month. This is also to stagger things with the spring of next year. I will have to go back again in the spring and autumn.

"Hey, after a while, my brothers and sisters are going to get married," Chunqiu dragged his chin and said.

"Yeah, it's time." Yuan continued, "But, what's your second brother thinking? Brother Jun'er is married, why is there no movement from your second brother here? No, I'll go find you tomorrow. Second brother, talk about it..." Yuan Shi remembered that Yang Chunming hadn't gotten married yet, so she couldn't sit still. After saying harsh words, she hurried to the backyard to clean up. Going to the backyard of the county yamen, and finally being able to force my son to let go, agreeing to a blind date would be the best.

Chunqiu watched her mother walk forward quickly, left in a hurry, smiled and shook her head in amazement, and silently felt sorry for tomorrow's second brother, Zhuzuan, her second brother can be regarded as a person doing it at home, the disaster must have come from heaven It hurts Chi Yu, after all, this incident was caused by her elder brother's marriage.
