Chapter 146: Huang Laoshi: First Chop and Then Play (1) (Second Update)
Feng Changshun interjected: "Let's go back in March or April." In March and April, you can pick some tea leaves, pick up some mushrooms, break some bamboo shoots or something, and you can get some mountain goods after playing, isn't it better? ”
Xiaoqing immediately said happily: "Grandpa, is this what you said?" Don't let us go when the time comes. We don't play in vain, we keep and follow the cuckoo up the mountain, pinch a lot of tea leaves, and pick up a lot of fungi back. ”
The cuckoo almost choked on his own saliva.
She looked at her eldest cousin speechlessly, blaming her for being exaggerated when she described life in the mountains to them, so that they thought that the mountains were full of tea trees and mushrooms, so they said "many" and "many" with confidence.
If you can't get so much at that time, will there be too much gap in your heart?
Feng Changshun and the others joked: "Okay! Grandpa is waiting for you to pick up 'a lot' of fungi and come back. If that's not enough, don't come back, and come back when you've got enough. ”
Everyone laughed.
Uncle Feng Xingfa nodded at his daughter and said, "You think that the things on the mountain are so easy to get?" The tea trees all grow on high mountains, and there are few on a mountain, and not every mountain has them. Fungi are not everywhere, you have to be able to find them. Sometimes you can't pick up a few pounds in a day. ”
The eldest aunt Du Shi said: "They are watching people eat tofu quickly." ”
When Xiaoqing and the others heard this, they saw the cuckoo pursing his lips and snickering, and then they understood the cruelty of reality.
After laughing for a while, it was time for dinner.
This night, Mrs. Feng whispered to her two daughters until midnight before falling asleep.
The next day, the rooster crowed, and everyone in the Feng family's compound got up, washed and ate. Feed the animals in bundles. When the Lin family's uncle and nephew came, they immediately hit the road.
It wasn't dawn yet. As soon as the moon was bent, he lit a torch and shone it.
Mrs. Feng hugged the cuckoo. repeatedly told you to be careful on the road, and said that you can play again when you are free, which is very reluctant; Several aunts and uncles have something to give, and they have sent several pairs of shoes alone, all of which have been done in a hurry these days, saying that the mountain road is difficult to walk, especially grinding the soles of shoes, and sending shoes is more practical than other things.
The cuckoo was also reluctant to get up, and asked her grandmother and aunt to go into the mountain with her cousins in March. If you stay for a month and come back, you can also catch up with spring ploughing.
And they all agreed.
My grandfather and uncles were even sent to the mountains before turning their heads.
When he came, the cuckoo was expectant; When she went back, she was like an arrow, and she couldn't wait to step home in one step.
On the way, she walked with Jiu'er and quietly asked him about the inside story.
Jiu'er told her as she walked, and intermittently, Du Juan finally understood what had happened. Some are expected. Some are far from what you expected.
She couldn't help but sigh: Sure enough, Ji Lu's plan can't catch up with the changes.
It turned out that on the morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, after Du Juan and Feng left, Lin Datou and his family had breakfast. Carrying home-brewed rice wine, a box of dim sum, a piece of cloth, and jewelry, etc., he went to the next door to find Huang Laoshi to propose marriage.
Lin Chun also followed.
Huang Laoshi saw the two of them coming to the door like this. I don't know what. Hurriedly let him enter the hall and sat down on the table of the eight immortals. He shouted to Huang Que to pour tea.
Huang Que'er naturally understood the meaning of the big-headed uncle and the big-headed aunt.
She endured her shyness and lowered her head after making tea for everyone. So he hid in his room, and did not even do the housework.
Then there is still the mind to do it!
It was Huang Li, leaning on Huang Laoshi's arms, staring at Lin Datou with blazing eyes.
The other is Lin Chun, who is also sitting beside Lin Datou. Huang Que'er also made him a cup of tea, and he drank it decently, waiting for the big head to speak.
Huang Laoshi didn't pay attention to the two little babies at all, besides, he doted on Huang Li very much, so naturally he wouldn't drive her away, and thought that Lin Datou also favored Lin Chun, so he took him with him, and he didn't think of anything else.
After Lin Datou took a sip of tea, Huang Laoshi asked, "Brother Datou, sister-in-law, what are you doing...... Looking for me? ”
Lin Datou coughed, exchanged glances with his daughter-in-law again, and said what he meant in just one sentence.
Huang was stunned and said in embarrassment: "Big brother, this ...... Her mother has just left, why don't you wait for her to come back and talk about this? ”
He asked his daughter-in-law about everything, and it became a habit.
Because of this, he felt weird: Why did Lin Datoushan wait for his daughter-in-law to leave before he came to propose?
Lin Datou shook his head and said disapprovingly: "Honest brother, it's not me who said you, you should also have your own ideas." We have been neighbors for so many years, and you have seen the character of my sons. What did I say that year? My sons, I will teach them how to hunt, to learn carpenter, to learn from stonemasons. What do you think? Have you learned them all? ”
His head kept shaking, his big hands kept waving, and he took charge of the conversation.
Huang Laoshi had to admit that only "belch, belch" kept nodding.
Lin Datou said again: "This village is full of numbers, and I will scarce your honest daughter: capable, good-tempered, filial and obedient, so I came to ask for Xia Sheng." ”
Seeing that Huang Laoshi's face was red with excitement, and he was anxious to speak, he hurriedly stopped him-Zhilu said that he was going to say that Feng was not at home, and he couldn't call the shots or anything--not let him say it.
"I came to ask for marriage, not only because of my son's ability, but also because others can't compare: our two families live next door! In the future, when they get married, then Xia Sheng will not be like your son. If you have anything, just shout across the yard. You say, this is comparable to others? You marry your daughter to someone else's family, is it so convenient to marry my Lin Datou's son? Xia Sheng grew up again, and filial piety is not said. ”
These words really moved Huang Laoshi.
Just as the girls said to him yesterday: they want to marry nearby so that they can take care of their parents in the future.
Who else is closer to the Huang family than the Lin family?
Seeing that Huang was honestly moving, Lin Datou made persistent efforts, and counted with his fingers: What will let Xia Sheng raise him in the future, a son-in-law and a son-in-law; His daughter-in-law is also a well-known member of the Huang family, she must be a good mother-in-law, and she will definitely treat Huang Qi'er like her own daughter in the future; Xia Sheng is diligent and takes care of his family, and he will definitely be good to Huang Que'er in the future......
He said it right, and Huang Laoshi's mind was completely held by him.
In the middle, the eldest daughter-in-law also interjected from time to time.
She said. She didn't give birth to a girl, and she always treated the finch and the cuckoo as a girl. If Que'er is allowed to give birth to Xia, she will be an extra girl......
Huang nodded busily. Because the big-headed daughter-in-law has always been good to the finches and cuckoos.
He was full of eagerness, thinking that this was a good family that was difficult to find with a lantern, and he was eager to agree immediately.
It just so happened that Lin Datou's mouth was dry, so he stopped and asked him for his opinion.
As soon as he stopped, Huang Laoshi could be regarded as finding himself, and he also remembered that Feng was not at home, and he had no right to make his own claims.
So he hurriedly said, "I have nothing to say." But big brother, my daughter-in-law is not at home, and I can't call the shots alone. It's better to wait for the finch mother to come back. We've discussed, and we'll get back to you. ”
Lin Datou was sullen when he heard this, didn't he just wait for Feng to leave before coming to the door.
If Feng comes back, then it's a fart!
Feng would definitely not agree.
Even if you agree, I don't know how much more it will take, how can Huang Laoshi be so easy to move.
He hated the iron and said: "Honest brother, I didn't say you, you are a man, you have to listen to your daughter-in-law in everything?" You can't be the master of this house at all? ”
He wanted to provoke.
Helplessly, Huang Laoshi has no ambition at all. So don't be provoked by him.
He asked innocently: "Even if I am in charge, I have to discuss such a big matter with my daughter-in-law, right?" I can't just give the finch a family affair by myself. ”
Lin Datou was speechless.
He is really the master of the house, but his son's family affairs still have to be discussed with his daughter-in-law. He didn't make his own decisions about everything.
Lao Tzu is not a son, and Lin Chun, who has been listening for a long time, finally spoke.
Like a little adult, he said to Huang honestly: "Uncle Honest." Zhilu said, why do we wait for my aunt to leave? ”
Huang honestly shook his head and said, "I don't know what to do." ”
Lin Chun said: "Don't let my aunt know!" ”
Nonsense, who doesn't know this!
Huang honestly said angrily: "This baby." Joke! “
Lin Chun said: "I didn't laugh." I heard from Du Juan that Grandma Huang wanted to give Sister Qi'er to her relatives in Lishugou. If the honest uncle and aunt give Sister Qi'er to my brother. Then Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang are going to scold you. They don't scold honest uncles, they only scold aunts. Honest uncle, think about it, but so? ”
Huang honestly thought about it, isn't it, his father and mother like to find the stubble of his daughter-in-law.
Lin Chun said again: "It's because of this that my father saw that his aunt was not at home to kiss." The honest uncle really wanted to feel sorry for his aunt, and he felt sorry for Sister Qi'er and Du Juan, so he decided this door by himself, so as not to take the tired aunt to be scolded. Looking back, Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang were angry, and they couldn't blame their aunts, nor their sisters. Uncle Honest is their son, they will scold at most, and they can still kill you? That's not it. When the aunt comes back, the honest uncle thinks about her like this, and he must be happy to death. So is the cuckoo. ”
He tried his best to deceive Huang Honestly.
Lin Datou simply admired his son: he was a radical general, but this kid spoke much more roundly.
Looking at Huang Laoshi again, after listening to Lin Chun's words, he suddenly felt a hundred times more courageous, and turned into a dignified husband, wanting to shield his wife and children from the storm from his father.
As soon as his head was hot, he forgot that the Feng family might not agree to this family.
Or, he thought that Feng would definitely agree - having a son-in-law by his side as a backer for the elderly, can he still agree to this good thing?
It's no wonder that he is impulsive, he is really reluctant to marry his daughter.
But the girl has been raised, and she can't do it if she doesn't marry, so she can't stay for a lifetime.
But if Huang Que'er marries Xia Sheng, and Du Juan and Lin Chun's family affair is also completed, and the two daughters are in front of him, he doesn't have to be separated from his daughters.
Also, the little girl Huang Li also said that she was going to sit on the mountain to recruit a husband.
In this way, the three daughters are in front of each other when they grow up.
Ha Lu Ha, that's great!
Thinking of the happy place, the honest father couldn't help but grin.
Lin Datou looked at his expression, exchanged glances with his daughter-in-law, and felt that this matter was almost done.
It's time to do it, there are many dreams at night!
Lin Chun didn't want to delay, for fear that someone would come, so he glanced at Huang Li.
Huang Li finally spoke. - She has a big task!
The little girl raised her head, approached her honest father's ear, and whispered softly: "Dad, you forgot to ask my sister." ”
"Ahh Huang Laoshi exclaimed, "By the way, how did I forget the finch." Big brother, you wait, I'm going to ask the finch. ”
picked up Huang Li and hurriedly ran to the girl's room.
Lin Datou looked at his back and laughed loudly.
This time, come back, Huang Que'er is his daughter-in-law Lin Datou! (To be continued......)
