Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 2

The matchmaker glanced at Pomegranate and said, "Pomegranate is the oldest girl in our villages near and far. Look at your Pomegranate's figure. She is very fertile. If you marry into Qian's family now, you will definitely marry her next year." Can give birth to a big fat boy, the Qian family can't wait to marry Pomegranate home, say... can we have a wedding next month?"

"Next month?" Lin exclaimed, "Isn't it already scheduled for the ninth day of the second lunar month in the coming year? The two children have only been engaged for three months. I'm afraid they will be laughed at if they marry so soon. My pomegranate can't wait to get married."

The matchmaker rolled her eyes and thought to herself, your pomegranate can't wait to get married, what's so precious about an old girl?What's more, everyone in the ten miles and eight villages knows that Shiliu is a fool, and it's good enough that someone wants her.

Although the matchmaker murmured in her heart, her mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and she took Lin's hand and said, "You don't know, from the Tian family. Brother Feng can't wait to marry Pomegranate. They wanted to see the pomegranates. The old couple of the Qian family thought that it would be better to get them married as soon as possible. If Brother Feng really couldn’t wait to come over to see the pomegranates one day, it would be ridiculous for outsiders to see them. Brother Feng and Pomegranate is getting old, so I'm anxious to think...it's okay to consummate the house, other people's children are two or three years old at their age."

Pomegranate was completely shameless, but blinked her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled innocently, her cheeks on both sides were flushed like overripe apples.She didn't have much thought, thinking that Brother Feng really wanted to see her.

Lin's heart murmured that Qian Feng and Shiliu knew each other before, because Taohua Village and Qianjia Village were not too far away. Occasionally met on the road.Since they knew each other before they got engaged, Qian Feng still wanted to see Pomegranate, could it be... The Qian family wanted to make a wrong idea and marry Pomegranate back earlier, so as to save the two gifts of Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival?

Seeing that pomegranate is not easy to marry, the Qian family wants to be greedy for it. This is too much!
After thinking about it, it doesn't seem right.Although the Qian family is not rich, the old couple of the Qian family don’t seem to be that stingy. The Qian family was quite generous in giving the gift money when they got engaged. They picked a load of grain for the gift during the Dragon Boat Festival. I didn’t see that they wanted to be greedy for petty gains. people.

Could it be... is Qian Feng's strange problem and playing something new?
At the beginning of April this year, Qian Feng climbed up a tree to pick Chinese toon. Unexpectedly, the branch could not bear his weight, and it broke with a creak. He also fell down and fell into a coma on the spot.When he woke up, his whole person changed. Everyone in the Qian family village said that he used to be an honest man who was willing to work hard in the fields. I also intend to entrust a matchmaker to propose marriage to Lihua in Taohua Village.

But Qian Feng turned into a complete slob after a fall like this, never willing to work in the fields, and said that a man wants to earn a lot of money, and planing food in the loess is useless.

Lazy be lazy, but also a strange problem.His seven-year-old nephew raised more than 50 silkworms to play with. After cocooning, Qian Feng fried the live silkworm chrysalis in a pan and ate them, which made his nephew cry at home for several days, because his nephew raised silkworms for fun. In order to see the day when the cocoon turned into a moth, Qian Feng ended up eating it all. Could his nephew not cry?
The villagers didn't even know that silkworm chrysalis could be eaten, so they secretly said that Qian Feng's brain was broken by the fall.Qian Feng's problem of eating indiscriminately became more and more serious. Once he caught more than a dozen scorpions under a big tree, washed them in water and then threw them into the oil pan for frying. The scorpions struggled to climb to the edge of the pan. He picked it up and put it in his mouth and started to eat it, biting it so loudly that his mother backed up three feet in fright, and the hairs all over her body stood on end.

Also, it is said that he loves cleanliness very much. In the midsummer, others take a shower a day, which is considered poor. He is good, and he takes a shower three times a day, what is it called a shower.

He also clamored over and over again to cut his hair, saying that a big man would comb his hair a few feet long and wear a turban every day when he got up every day, which is simply abnormal.

Everyone didn't know what abnormality meant, so they called him a monster behind his back.

Because of this, the Qian family asked a matchmaker to propose marriage to the Lihua family, but was rejected, and then to girls in several surrounding villages to propose marriage was rejected one after another. Later, they had no choice but to ask someone to go to the north of the county, a hundred miles away, to propose marriage. People are willing to marry their own girl to this monster Qian Feng.

The Qian family was really anxious, so they asked a matchmaker to come to Tian's house in Taohua Village to propose marriage to Shiliu, because Shiliu not only has a round body, but also has a round face like a big bun, but also has a weak mind, so she has been unable to marry.But at least her body is good for fertility, so the Qian family thinks that it would be fine if Qian Feng could marry Pomegranate.After the Tian family agreed, the Qian family gave a decent gift money, and a month later on the Dragon Boat Festival, the Qian family picked up another load of grain as a gift.

When Shiliu learned that she was finally getting married, she had been laughing foolishly for the past three months. When people asked her if she was afraid of that big monster, they said that Qian Feng would even dare to eat silkworm chrysalis and half-lived scorpions.But she smiled and said, I'm not afraid, as long as I can't kill people.

Everyone shook their heads, Shiliu is indeed a stupid girl, she and Qian Feng make up a couple, what kind of life will be in the future is really unimaginable.

At this moment, Father Tian and Shi Liu's younger brother, Shi Yazi, came back with a load of peanuts each, and Mrs. Lin said to the matchmaker, "My old man is back. You can ask him. I can't be the master."
