Chapter Seventy-Three: Implicated in Marriage

Huo Xiaohan has been very happy recently, because he met some school-age girls and Shuang'er in the village with Yuan Xiaoyu, and let him make a few friends. Although he is not a confidant, occasionally everyone gets together to do work, and he is very happy to talk and laugh.

Standing outside the gate of Yuangen Sheng's house, Huo Xiaohan shouted inside: "Is Sister Xiaoyu at home?"

After a while, Yuan Xiaoyu's voice came from inside: "In the house, Xiaohan, you come in." ”

Huo Xiaohan entered the courtyard and found that the adults in the family were not there, He entered Yuan Xiaoyu's house and saw that the other party was cleaning up the bed.

"Sister Xiaoyu, isn't the uncle and aunt at home?"

Yuan Xiaoyu smiled and said, "My father and mother went to do my eldest brother's family affairs." ”

Huo Xiaohan heard Yuan Xiaoyu talk about this a few days ago, saying that he was looking for a matchmaker to show the girl on the pillar: "Have eyebrows?"

Yuan Xiaoyu beckoned Huo Xiaohan to sit down: "No, how can it be so fast." The matchmaker said that there were several girls who were quite suitable, and asked me where my father and mother wanted to go to court. My mother didn't believe the matchmaker's mouth, so she wanted to find someone to inquire about the reputation of those girls' families. ”

Hearing her say this, Huo Xiaohan also laughed: "I have to inquire." A few days ago, I heard Brother Anping tell me a joke about matchmakers, and it sounds like it's enough to trick people. ”

Yuan Xiaoyu was curious: "What kind of joke? ”

"It's about a black-hearted matchmaker, who uses any means to get money in order to get a good pair. She told the man's family that the 28 girl was like a flower, virtuous and able to run the house, and she told the woman's family that the man was strong and had a stable personality, and he was even more down-to-earth than others when he walked. As a result, on the day they got married, both families were not happy. The man asked the matchmaker, 'The girl you said is like a flower, where does she look like a sixteen-year-old girl? Where is she beautiful like a flower?' But the matchmaker said, 'I'm not lying, she's twenty-eight this year, isn't she a twenty-eight girl?' It's not wrong to say that she looks like a flower, which girl is not like a flower, it's just the difference between a trumpet flower and a peony flower, anyway, it's all flowers. ’”

Yuan Xiaoyu sneered: "This is really tricky." ”

Huo Xiaohan smiled when he thought of that scene: "Yes, the woman is not happy as a result." ”

"She's still not happy?" In Yuan Xiaoyu's heart, a girl who didn't marry until the age of twenty-eight had to look like what she would look like, it would be good to be able to marry.

The matchmaker told the woman that the man was strong and had a stable personality, and he was more down-to-earth than others in what he said, even walking. In fact, the man of that family had a broken foot, and he had to wrestle if he didn't step on it, but he was said by the matchmaker to be down-to-earth. ”

Yuan Xiaoyu smiled: "This matchmaker is really a ghost, but she didn't tell a lie, she is the most deceitful person with this half-truth." Fortunately, we don't have such a matchmaker here, otherwise I really don't know how many families we would have to trap. ”

Thinking of what Yuan Anping said, Huo Xiaohan said: "Our matchmaker here doesn't dare to do this. was rumored to have a bad reputation, and no one asked her to kiss her. ”

Yuan Xiaoyu was curious: "How dare the matchmaker in the story? The things in the story are fake, right?"

"I really don't know. Brother An Ping said that if the matchmaker dared to do this, it must be because she gave so much gift money that she didn't care about her reputation. We are all ordinary people, but we can't give so much gift money, and if they want to have a business, they can only rely on a good reputation. ”

"That's right. However, the matchmakers are all picking up good words, and my mother is also afraid that the matchmaker will say too well, so I want to inquire. Thinking of his eldest brother's family affairs, Yuan Xiaoyu was happy in his heart, "My brother's family affairs are thanks to Anping." ”

Huo Xiaohan was curious, what does Yuan Zhuzi's family affair have to do with Brother Anping?

Yuan Xiaoyu explained to him: "Actually, last year, my mother asked a matchmaker to kiss my brother, but the matchmaker said that according to my family's conditions, it is not good." My mother just wants to put it off and save some money at home. Who knew that Anping later began to teach children literacy, and after this news spread, everyone knew that the children in our village could go to school without teaching them, and even those who were related to our village also benefited. Therefore, the men and girls in the village who have not yet married and their children are better to talk about others than before. A few years ago, several families were married. ”

"Really?" Huo Xiaohan didn't pay much attention to this matter, and it was the first time he had heard of it.

"Yes, the girl married into our village, and after giving birth to a child, she can follow the literacy and study, and even the children of her mother's family can come to school, of course they are willing to marry the girl to our village." The girls and Shuang'er in our village are the same, they are married, and those people become the in-laws of our village, so they can open their mouths and send the children of the family to Anping to be literate. ”

It sounds really gratifying, after all, their village is a poor village, and it was not easy to get married before, but Huo Xiaohan was a little incomprehensible: "But Brother Anping doesn't accept all the children everywhere? ”

Yuan Xiaoyu explained to him: "Although I said that, others don't know." I think what he received is some relative, although the children he received this time have little to do with the people in the village, but it is also the friendship of the village chief of those villages who came to find our village chief. ”

Huo Xiaohan was surprised: "So that's the case, I really didn't expect that Brother Anping was just teaching children to read and write, and it could be related to the marriage in the village." ”

"Anping probably didn't expect it, but there are people in the village who can think of it. Yuan Xiaoyu listened to some rumors in the village, thought about it for a while, and found that Anping forced the Huo family to break off Huo Xiaohan's relationship, and the elders in the village did not come forward to stop it, and they also helped, which should also have a deep meaning in this regard.

Huo Xiaohan couldn't think of it so much, but he just felt that this was definitely a good thing, so the people in the village remembered Yuan Anping's love, and someone would take care of anything in the future: "If you say so, then Brother Zhuzi's family affairs are also easy to say." ”

"yes. Yuan Xiaoyu said jokingly: "As long as the matchmaker says, 'The cousin is a gentleman, and your family will marry your daughter, and it won't be too easy for the children in the family to read and write in the future', the family will definitely be moved." ”

Huo Xiaohan couldn't help laughing: "That's really the case." ”

Yuan Xiaoyu saw Huo Xiaohan's expression that he didn't mind, and put his mind at ease. In the final analysis, their family borrowed Anping's reputation, and even said that they would be close to each other in the future. This is not just a family taking advantage of Yuan Anping, but will involve more people. For example, her sister-in-law's mother's family, sister-in-law's relatives. Another example is her future husband's family, her husband's relatives, and even her younger brothers will be connected when they marry wives in the future.

Since their family and Anping are not related to others, it is not easy to shirk if there is anything really to ask for Anping. So, it's not a simple thing. At the same time, it is inevitable. Although Huo Xiaohan did not marry Yuan Anping, he will definitely become Yuan Anping's husband in the future, which is a sure thing. He didn't mind it, of course it would be better. 166 Reading Network
