Chapter 112: Sweet and Pleasant!
Tang Tietie looked at his mother-in-law staring at him with angry eyes, afraid that he remembered what he asked him to do last night, and said with a red face: "Husband and wife should be like a fish in water, so that I can have strength to work,"
"You didn't marry me when you were young, you didn't still be able to work, why did you give birth to a basket of children, and you actually told me that if you don't give birth to a husband and wife, you won't have the strength to work,"
"Daughter-in-law, working in the fields during the day and at home at night, can you exert all your strength when your body is always full?"
"You, why are you living more and more oily now, so that the babies can hear it, and see how they laugh at you?"
"Daughter-in-law, I'll tell you this as a husband, and I won't say it if others tell me to say it," Tang Tiezhu's hand moved after he finished speaking.
"You...... Why do you say this and put your hand into your clothes," Li Shi gasped and said the last sentence: "I don't want to give birth to a baby, there are already seven babies in the family, I don't want to have another baby," Tang Tiezhu's mother-in-law's mouth no longer made her squeak
Spring goes to autumn, and in a blink of an eye it is winter, Tang Qinger is learning embroidery with her mother in the house, and when she heard someone knocking on the door, her father went out to have a look.
Tang Tiezhu opened the door and found that it was Sanshun, he was shivering from the cold, and asked with a smile: "Your young master's house is here," Sanshun also smiled and nodded yes.
While speaking, Xue Qianxun got down from the carriage, and Tang Tiezhu greeted him in a heavy cotton jacket and said, "It's such a cold day, why did the virtuous nephew come over?"
Xue Qianxun took a breath of cold air, wrapped his cloak and said: "The house in the village has been built, and the soil kang has also been burned from today, come and discuss with Uncle Tang about the appropriate cultivation of mushrooms." ”
Tang Tiezhu hurriedly said: "Qing'er has been muttering to me behind her back for the past few days, she will be happy if you come over today," he said, inviting Xue Qianxun into the house.
Before entering the house, Xue Qianxun asked Sanshun to take down the things in the car and send them into the house, he said to Tang Tiezhu: "Uncle Tang, do you know about growing mushrooms?" He asked in a whisper.
Tang Tiezhu said with a bitter face: "Alas! Every time I talk to the mouth, I can't open my mouth, I'm afraid that she will be anxious with me, and I finally opened my mouth to say two days ago, but I was interrupted by Qing'er, alas! When you enter the house, you are not allowed to leak your mouth, "Maybe Xue Qianxun has come to the Tang family too many times, and Tang Tiezhu didn't treat him as an outsider, and his tone was very intimate when he spoke."
Xue Qianxun nodded, smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Tang, I haven't said anything after coming so many times, so my mouth is tight?" When it comes to you, every time you come to your house, you remind me, "It's called natural, but Tang Tiezhu did such a thing, and he was not afraid of what others said."
Xue Qianxun saw Sanshun put his things in the house and came out, so he said to him, "You go and wait for me in the carriage!" ”
How cold it was in the carriage, and he was not a horse, why did he let him be a companion with the horse, and said bitterly: "Yes, young master," before leaving, he turned back three times one step at a time, and finally Tang Tiezhu couldn't look at it and said: "Let's let Sanshun enter the house!" It's too cold in the carriage, don't freeze and catch a cold, the cold in the winter is too much of a delay. ”
Sanshun glanced at the young master, waited for the young master to nod, thanked Tang Tiezhu and said, "Hello, how can it be like my young master, the whole iron ...... Hard-hearted. The last four words were so light that he could hear them.
Of course, Xue Qianxun heard it, and his mouth came out: "En? ”
Sanshun said like a dog: "Nothing! It's nothing! Young master, hurry up and enter the house! It's too cold outside,"
The three of them entered the house together, Tang Qing'er saw that her father had not yet entered the house, so she went out to have a look, and when she looked up, she saw Xue Qianxun coming with Sanshun, she was stunned at that time, and Xiao Jiujiu began to count the money in her heart, she was really rich, she was wearing a satin cotton coat in winter, mink around her neck, a cloak of rabbit fur, and boots made of deerskin. My mother-in-law, how can this person be so extravagant, if this dress is changed to silver, how many people can survive the winter, and how many people can be fed and clothed, in fact, she guessed wrong, Xue Qianxun was bought from the capital, almost a thousand taels of silver.
A cold wind blew, Tang Qing'er was so cold that she immediately regained consciousness, she didn't say hello, she rushed directly into the house, nested in her mother's house and played with taro, until Xue Qianxun came in and said hello to him, and then she didn't say anything.
Xue Qianxun was a very good talker, and the Li family had chatted with him since he entered the room, and Tang Tiezhu sat on the side and listened to them, occasionally interjecting.
At this time, Xue Qianxun said to the Li family: "Auntie, I ate the food you made last time, it was very delicious, and I want to eat it again, so I took the liberty to come over and disturb you,"
Li likes people to praise her for her delicious cooking, Xue Qianxun grasped this point, and every time he came, he could coax Li to go to the kitchen to cook himself, and heard her say: "What's convenient or inconvenient, you call me aunt, if you want to eat the food and dishes I cook, you don't dislike it." As he spoke, he walked to the kitchen, because it was winter, and the meat was easy to freeze, so the family prepared some meat for daily eating, and wanted to let the girl come out to help, but it was really cold, and I couldn't bear to call her.
It is said that Xue Qianxun finally ate the rice and vegetables cooked by the Li family in the autumn, when he had just finished farming and rested for a few days, he came over with things, and the beautiful name was to see her father, in fact, he told her that the watering can had been done, and the house was being built for these things, and her mother didn't know his intentions, and when she saw that he had taken a lot of things, she took money to her father to buy meat, made six hot dishes, and two cold dishes to entertain him.
After the Li family went out, Tang Tiezhu sat at the door and guarded, afraid that his mother-in-law would come and hear them, Xue Qianxun shook his head with a smile and said to Tang Qing'er: "The two long houses in the village have been completed, the soil kang has also begun to burn, and the watering cans have been successfully manufactured, when will we start planting mushrooms?"
"What? You've got all that you said, it's great that you finally don't have to embroider at home. "It's exciting to think about it, it's really a sin to embroider with her mother at home.
"After eating, I said to my mother, you have to be there too, otherwise you will be the good guy, and I will do the bad guys, which is not fair to me." Then he said to the doorman guarding the door: "Dad, you have to help me when the time comes, I am afraid that my mother will be angry, and the stick will whip me,"
Tang Tiezhu glanced outside, made sure that there was no mother-in-law, and hurriedly said: "I can't protect myself, where can I take care of you?"
Tang Qing'er looked at her father in disbelief, stretched out her hand, stomped her feet, and said, "Do you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge." ”
Xue Qianxun burst out laughing and explained, "Do you still need to build this bridge?" Even if it is built, it means that it is destined to collapse,"
Tang Qing'er frowned, erected her hairs, and said hatefully, "What do you mean?" You're not going to abandon me, are you? ”
Xue Qianxun rubbed her hair and said, "Silly girl, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you," while Tang Tiezhu was not paying attention, his lips attached to her ear and whispered: "For you, I am willing,"
This person came again, remembering what her mother had said to her before, Tang Qing'er felt the need to discuss it with Xue Qianxun, so she said to her father: "Dad, you go to the kitchen to help my mother, I am here to discuss with Brother Xue about growing mushrooms, if my mother asks about me, you say that I am reading in my own house?" ”
Tang Tiezhu thought about it, so he went to the kitchen.
Tang Qing'er saw her father go out, and said to Xue Qianxun seriously: "Master Xue, I don't know what you like about me, but I tell you clearly, I won't be your little wife,"
"Who said that you should be my little wife, if I really marry you, I want to carry a sedan chair to marry you into the door, regardless of these, I want to ask you, do you think too much, when did I say that I would marry you, that is, I really want you......"
"If I want to be better, what I said just now is all my nonsense, if it is as I expected, I will put my words here, I will not marry you,"
"Oh? I don't understand, in terms of family background, wealth, and appearance, I am very outstanding in everything, how can I make you look down on you in your eyes,"
"As Xue Gongzi said, then you must have a lot of girls from good families to take a fancy to, but I am a country girl, I don't understand the rules of your house, I don't understand the world, and third, it's my own reasons, and it's inconvenient to disclose."
"This is a bad statement, first, the rules in our house are very simple, second, you say that you are not familiar with the world, but I found that you are transparent and smooth, how to explain this, the most important thing is the last point, you want to marry a person with thirty acres of land, my family just has a thousand acres of land, if you marry me, I will hand over these lands to you to take care of."
Tang Qing'er blushed and said intermittently: "You...... How did you...... I...... I only want to marry a man who has thirty acres of land," and after thinking about it, she and her mother were discussing this matter, and there was indeed no one else around, and those who could hear this must have eavesdropped outside, and said angrily, "You eavesdropped on me," wasn't he already gone at that time?
"Sister Qing'er, where is this eavesdropping, I wanted to come back and tell you something, but before I opened the door and knocked on the door, I heard the sound of you talking to your aunt in the yard, I didn't mean to listen, I was saying that I had ears just to hear others talking, and besides, the sound of you and your aunt talking is so loud, I don't think it's hard to hear."
Tang Qing'er scolded him fiercely in her heart, raised her head and was about to speak, but he intercepted him and said, "Don't worry, only me and Sanshun will hear it, and no one else will hear it." "Even if someone hears it, he will make people forget what he heard.
"Forget it, I'm just telling you clearly that I'm ...... No...... Yes...... Marry...... To give...... You," Tang Qing'er said clearly and accurately word by word in order to show her true thoughts in her heart.
It is impossible to say that you have not been hit, but who is Xue Qianxun, a businessman, who can always minimize the loss, raised his eyebrows and said: "Then let's wait and see, see who you marry in the future, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, if there is a good man, Sister Qing'er remember to tell me, I will check it for you,"
Tang Qing'er gritted her teeth and said, "Then thank you Brother Xue, let's talk about growing mushrooms!" Since the house and kang are all built, I will let you dig the fine soil in the house in the spring, and after talking to my mother today, if she agrees, we will start tomorrow, if you don't agree, you will come back tomorrow, and my mother will agree to me to grow mushrooms in three days at the latest. She knows her mother's temper too well, and if she gets angry with herself, she may be angry for a long time, but she can't stand that there is a Xue Qianxun in the middle, he has invested so much silver, her mother can't bear it.
Tang Qing'er was uneasy and instructed again: "Remember, tell me more about the money you spent, and tell my mother more troublesome things, my mother may be soft-hearted, and she can agree on the spot,"
"Well, I understand," if Xue Qianxun is an old fox, then Tang Qing'er is a little fox, and even her mother has to calculate, not what a fox is.
As soon as he finished speaking, the taro sleeping on the kang may have been woken up by the sound of the two of them talking, Tang Qing'er hurriedly stepped forward to pick him up, and said softly: "It's all my sister's fault, I woke you up, don't cry or cry,"
No matter how Tang Qing'er coaxed the taro, he still cried, or Xue Qianxun couldn't look past it, and stepped forward and said, "I'll hug you, you go to find your aunt and come over, the little guy may be hungry,"
Tang Qing'er had no choice but to hand him the crying taro, which was strange to say, just arrived in his arms, the taro didn't cry anymore, this little guy who eats inside and out, looks ugly for his eldest sister like this in front of outsiders, when no one in the family is there, how can I beat your ass.
Tang Qing'er sneered: "Speaking of which, taro and you are quite close, my sister hugged him, he cried, and when you hugged him, he didn't cry," these words were too sour, and even Sanshun, who was standing behind, smelled it.
Xue Qianxun gently patted the taro's ass and said, "Look! Your eldest sister tastes it,"
The little guy smiled forcefully, and let out a fart, Xue Qianxun felt that his hand was hot, and said with a wry smile: "Your brother may have,"
"Oh, how do you know?"
"My hands are hot now, and his little quilt is not wet, what do you say it can be?"
Tang Qing'er took the taro and said to Xue Qianxun with a smile: "He is really good to you," and said to the taro in his arms: "It is worthy of being my younger brother, let's be unanimous to the outside world,"
Xue Qianxun thought to himself: What is this, a can also pull out revenge! Tang Qing'er can say such things.
