Chapter 977: Honor in Troubled Times 45

After Xiao Ling's family affairs were decided, Xiao Yuan asked An Ning and Wyeth to step up and marry Yuan Si Girl home earlier.

It is impossible to pay attention to family affairs in the countryside like the capital, but it is just to change the Geng sticker, the Xiao family gives some dowry, the Yuan family makes up some dowry, finds a good day to open a few seats, and invites the neighbors to drink the wedding wine.

Such a simple thing is really a piece of cake for An Ning.

She and Wyeth cooked with a few girls in the family.

After everything that should be prepared was ready, An Ning asked Xiao Yuan to go and talk to the old man.

Since Xiao Yuan became a nine-rank official, there has been no movement on the side of the big house, and he should not dare to look for trouble.

Xiao Yuan taught a few children to read this morning, and after leaving them homework, he went to the big house.

Now the weather is very hot, when Xiao Yuan passed, the old man and the old lady were enjoying the cool under the tree in the yard, and there was a teenage girl standing next to him, serving tea.

Seeing Xiao Yuan come in, the old lady snorted and tilted her head to the side to ignore it.

The old man sighed: "Third child, you are too bold, our family is exiled here, you are a criminal minister, you don't say that An An is divided, you actually tossed so many townspeople, you say you ......"

Xiao Yuan took a stool and sat down: "Old man, it's not that I'm bold, I really can't help it, although our side is not very close to the sea, but many times the pirates have come ashore to fight the idea of our village, if I don't raise some manpower, as soon as the pirates enter the village, is it the old man, can you still pick up a gun and fight on horseback, or can my brother kill the enemy? ”

The old man who said a few words Xiao Yuan was speechless.

Xiao Yuan didn't drink tea, but just looked at the old man and said, "I'm here to tell you and the old lady that the sixth child's family affairs will be decided, and they will be married on the sixth day of next month." ”

"What?"

The old lady was taken aback: "Settle down? Who is the one to decide? I originally wanted to find a reliable one for the sixth child, but I didn't expect it to be settled so quickly." ”

The old man's face was blue and purple, and he was obviously angry: "Little rabbit cub, who is he ordering? I am his father, he didn't tell me about this family matter, does he want to be angry with me." ”

Xiao Yuan unhurriedly straightened his sleeves: "If you divide the sect, what is the difference between saying it and not saying it, now that it has been decided, I will tell you a word." ”

The old man was so angry: "You are also unfilial, okay, good, since you all hide from me about your family, don't invite me over when you get married, I won't go, I'll see what he worships." ”

Xiao Yuan got up and walked out: "I have already told you, as for whether to go or not, you can do it, if you don't want the sixth child, just don't go." ”

When he walked to the door, Xiao Yuan also glanced back at the old man: "Don't worry, the sixth child has me and the fourth, he can't stand the grievances." ”

The old man grabbed the teacup and threw it over.

Xiao Yuan dodged sideways and walked out with a faint smile on his face.

The old man immediately asked Xiao Jue to come over and asked Xiao Jue to inquire about Xiao Lingding's girl.

It didn't take long for Xiao Jue to inquire: "Dad, the sixth is the fourth girl from the Marquis Mansion of Guangning." ”

"What?"

This time the old lady couldn't sit still.

The sixth scumbag actually wants to marry the concubine of the Marquis of Guangning?

This made her feel very uneasy.

Why?

The concubine of the Marquis of Guangning, that is the princess deserves it, but she is cheaper than the sixth child, and the daughter-in-law married by the eldest son of Pingguo is not as high as the sixth daughter-in-law.

Thinking of this, the old lady was even more furious.

She felt that this was deliberate by the third child, and she deliberately promoted the sixth child to suppress the boss.

She didn't want to think about it, she was exiled to Nanyi, is it interesting for Xiao Yuan to do this?

"The Marquis of Quang Ninh, the Marquis of Quang Ninh. The old man sat on the chair with his buttocks, only to feel weak: "The third child is really out of breath, even the girls from the Marquis Mansion of Guangning have hired the sixth child, let's go, let's not care about him in the future, I can't control it." ”

Xiao Jue helped the old man, and when he heard the old man say this, he felt sour in his heart.

Back in the house, Zhao rushed over and handed Xiao Jue a cup of herbal tea: "The sixth child really wants to marry Miss Yuan Si?"

Xiao Jue took a sip of tea: "Yes, the third child doesn't know how to use to get the Yuan family to agree." ”

Zhao pouted: "I've been watching the third child carefully these days and acting a little too wildly, in addition to the villagers he trained, there seem to be some mountain bandits who come to find the third child, those people look fierce and fierce, you say, what does the third child want to do?"

Xiao Jue waved his hand: "No matter what he wants to do, let's not care, we can't do it." ”

"Why don't I write back to the capital and tell my father about these things?"

Zhao asked tentatively.

Xiao Jue turned his head to look at Zhao, and a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes: "No." ”

Zhao hurriedly bowed his head: "If it doesn't work, forget it." ”

Xiao Jue was a little worried: " Let me tell you, you give me An Ansheng, don't worry about the affairs of the third family, don't say it outside, you know, even if you divide the sect, you can't write two Xiao characters in one stroke, our two families are not dealing with each other, I don't look down on the third child, but he really has to have something, but he wants to implicate our family, if he really does something to cut off his head, we can't get better, and the third child is strong in the township for a day, we don't suffer, don't you see it these days, but no one dares to find our family uncomfortable, these are also on the third child's face. ”

"I see. ”

Zhao said.

She completely dispelled the idea of poking Xiao Yuan's actions out.

She is not a fool, she has also been educated by everyone's clan women, and she knows the truth of both prosperity and loss.

Even if the sect is divided, if there is really a disaster of raiding the family and destroying the clan, they will not be able to run away from the big house.

"Shall we go when the sixth child gets married?"

Zhao asked Xiao Jue.

"Go. Xiao Jue gritted his teeth and said: "You prepare the congratulatory gifts, and our whole family will go on that day, you must go over to help the third daughter-in-law take care of affairs earlier." ”

Zhao nodded: "Okay, I know." ”

After An Ning raised the rice seedlings and planted them, he was really a lot more leisurely.

At this time, the wheat was also in the warehouse, and An Ning took Xiao Ying and a few people to start grinding noodles and preparing to make some pasta.

When planting wheat, An Ning planted it with the four rooms and the six rooms, and the wheat was harvested, and of course the four rooms and the six rooms were also divided a lot.

The fourth and sixth children wanted to eat noodles or something, and when they heard An Ning say that they wanted to grind noodles to make noodles, they immediately took a lot of wheat from their own homes to grind noodles and save them, so that they could make some noodles to eat in the future.

At this time, grinding noodles can be strenuous, but it is not like modern times when you pour it into a flour grinder, and it doesn't take much effort to produce fine white noodles.

At this time, the grinding noodles are all stone grinding, the grinding noodles are not only coarse, but also may be mixed with sand and gravel or something, it tastes very toothy, if you want to get some fine noodles, you have to use a fine basket to make several dishes, anyway, the process can be difficult.

Fortunately, there are many young men at home, so there is no need to get started in peace.

An Ning commanded Xiao Ying and Xiao Song to grind a few times, she swept wheat flour around the mill, even the basket with grinding, did seven or eight processes, and finally got some fine white noodles.

The rest of the coarse flour was kept by An Ning to feed the chickens and ducks at home.

She grinded the noodles, and Xiao Ying and the others helped the fourth and sixth rooms grind the noodles.

An Ning carried a bag of flour and called Xiao Hui's five girls home to steam steamed buns and make dumplings.
