Chapter 29 Good day

Since being threatened by Li Wanqing, Mrs. Deng has not been to Li Wanqing's house again. Li Wanqing once heard that Mrs. Deng has not even been out of the house these days.

I also heard that when Li Ruying came back that night and found out that Mrs. Gu was fighting with his old mother, she beat Mrs. Gu severely in front of Mrs. Deng as a show of filial piety. As for whether it was true or not, Li Wanqing didn't know, she was too busy with her workshop. , how can there be that American time to take care of the affairs between husband and wife.

But it's true that Deng's, Gu's, and even Li Ruying didn't come to her house.

The whole family counted on their fingers, waiting for the first batch of pickled dried longevity fruit and longevity jam to come out, sold them to Huayuanju and received money, then continued to pickle the second batch, and after the third batch was sold, the family planned The first step is to remodel the three thatched houses in the family, otherwise the whole family will be damaged by freezing in winter.

These three thatched houses have been there for many years, and the roof has many small holes. When it rained the day before yesterday, it rained heavily outside and lightly rained inside, and the family was too busy to fetch water.

"Okay, then our Xiaochen will live in the east room, and Qing'er will live in the west room. Then we will sew new quilts and buy new quilts for you both." After dinner, the family of four sat around On the kang of Li Rulin and his wife, they discussed how to distribute the house after it was built.

"Mother, why is Xiaochen living in the east room? Shouldn't parents live in it?" The east room in this world is like the master bedroom in the back room. Li Muchen is only ten years old. If he wants to live in the east room, he has to wait. You can only live when you marry a wife. Of course, this is just Li Wanqing's idea. It's hard to say whether Li Rulin and his wife think so.

"Sooner or later, the east room will be for Xiaochen to live in. It doesn't matter whether it's early or late." Li Rulin looked at the pair of children kindly.

"Oh." The parties have said so, what else can she say.

After talking about the allocation of the house, Lin Shuirou suddenly turned the conversation around to Li Wanqing's marriage. Li Wanqing was already 15 years old, and it was supposed to be the time to get married, but because she lived with Deng before, Deng didn't agree. Like Lin Shuirou's mother and daughter, Lin Shuirou has a heart and dare not mention it. Now that the family has separated and her daughter can make money again, she wants to find a good one for her daughter.

So she thought that after the new year, her daughter would be sixteen, and the family life would definitely be better than this year, and it would not be too late to talk about it, but she still had to ask her daughter's opinion.

"Qing'er, after the new year you will be sixteen, it's time to say goodbye." There was too much reluctance in Lin Shuirou's words. The girl who has been raised for 16 years will soon be someone else's, as if the girl was yesterday She was born and will be married tomorrow.

"Cough, cough, cough." Li Wanqing choked on his own saliva, how could it be related to her marriage.

"Look at you, when this daughter grows up, she wants to talk about her husband's family. They are all from her own family. Do you need to be so shy?" Seeing Li Wanqing's coughing face flushed, Lin Shuirou patted Li Wanqing's back lightly and said funny .

Li Rulin also wanted to say a few words, but thinking of himself as a big man, Qing'er was afraid that he would be even more shy, so he kept quiet. Although his lips were tightly pursed, the smile on his brows and eyes couldn't be hidden no matter what Yes, yes, his daughter is getting married so soon.

Li Muchen looked at his sister who was still coughing, and his parents looked happy. Although he still didn't understand what was going on with marriage, he also knew that after his sister got married, he would never see her again every day. .

The elder sister of Gouwa's family in the village can only come back twice a month after she gets married. He intuitively doesn't want her sister to marry, but his mother said again that when the daughter grows up, she will talk about her husband's family.

After relieving the cough, Li Wanqing wailed: "Mom—I'm only 15 years old, okay?" 15 years old is still a child, so it's too early to talk about getting married.

Li Wanqing forgot that she is now living in the ancient era of early marriage, not the modern era that advocates late marriage and late childbearing.

"When mother was 15 years old, she was already married to your father, and she gave birth to you when she was sixteen." Lin Shuirou said angrily.

"Mother, can we wait two or three years later?" If she were to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, she really couldn't pass her own test. Eighteen was her bottom line, and she was an adult anyway.

"No, wait another two or three years, and people will think you are old."

"Mother, people say that a girl is eighteen and a flower, how can she grow old?" Li Wanqing shouted, didn't there be a song like "Eighteen girls and a flower" in the previous life?

"Who said that?" Lin Shuirou glared at Li Wanqing.

The song was sung like this. Seeing Lin Shuirou's staring eyes, Li Wanqing didn't dare to say it, for fear that Lin Shuirou and the others would treat her as a monster, so let's take one step at a time.

"Okay." Li Wanqing lowered her head and compromised, but it is not known whether she has compromised in her heart.

"After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, mother will ask someone to help me find out which boys are honest and reliable." Seeing her daughter's compromise, Lin Shuirou was happy, and worried about which boys in the nearby villages were honest. reliable.

It's the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and it's only the beginning of July. The crops in the fields haven't been harvested yet?Her mother has already started planning, is it too early?
Seeing that Lin Shuirou is so happy just thinking about it, Li Wanqing is not good at hitting her, let her want to go if she likes to think about it, she should just think about how to make money.

Although the days are busy, Li Wanqing checks the preserved longevity fruit every day. Some of the dried longevity fruits are ready to be poured out to dry. dry mass.

In addition, she didn't have to worry about someone coming to find trouble. Li Wanqing lived a fulfilling and comfortable life, and soon all the dried longevity fruits and jams could be delivered to Huayuanju.

The day after tomorrow is the market day, and there are still five days before the delivery date. The family discussed in the evening, and Li Rulin will send a message to Ji Fang in the morning from the vegetable harvester in Huayuan Julai Village.

On the morning of the market day, Li Rulin found out that Ji Fang had agreed to let them deliver the goods in advance. Just after dawn, the family had already prepared the goods to be delivered. This time even Lin Shuirou was dispatched.

The family of four sat and pulled a large earthen jar containing [-] catties of dried longevity fruit and jam, and walked slowly towards Liantang Town.
