Chapter 170: Light the lamp and eat
The village chief said coldly: "That's a nice thing to say! Then you still let the eldest young master build such a big house for your family, don't ask for it if you have the ability! ”
"The village chief is an official, can you pay attention to your words?" Zhong Liyue looked at the village chief and reminded coldly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The village chief flattened his mouth, and muttered in a weird manner: "The big girl has a long ability, and her waist is stiff when she speaks." ”
"Father, mother, think about it, with my background, if the eldest young master wants to take me as a concubine, does it take so much trouble? Although he is the head of the Shen family, has he been arrogant in the process of contacting you? ”
Zhong Laosi and his wife glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison. "He is very polite and respectful of us. ”
This is because he has a good upbringing, so he treats everyone politely, and he will try to make up for what he has done wrong, but this does not mean that he wants to take anyone as a concubine. Don't speculate, if you want to know anything, just ask me. Zhong Liyue said.
"It's such a big benefit to be wronged? Tomorrow, I'll let my three girls go too. The village chief said smugly.
"If she's so lucky, she can be framed, and she can be so strong that she can survive everyone's interrogation and bullying, then go ahead! This is indeed a good way to get rich. Zhong Liyue said extremely 'seriously'.
The village chief was speechless, his eyes slanted, and he tilted his head to the side in anger.
"Oh, there was a matchmaker who came to the door to propose marriage before, and it was you who mentioned it, we thought it was ...... So ......" Ma suddenly recalled the previous events and couldn't help but feel sorry.
"No way!" Zhong Liyue's heart suddenly tightened: Oh no, I almost forgot about this stubble! After pondering for a moment, she lied: "The eldest young master said that he would find a good family for me in Huanjing." ”
"Is there such a thing? That's good, too! Ma turned his worries into joy.
Zhong Laosi looked at Zhong Liyue with pity, and said with a straight face: "Liyue, as parents, we have no other wishes, what kind of person you marry as long as you are happy, there is nothing to pick from a family like ours, the most important thing is that the son-in-law can treat you sincerely, and you will not be angry when you marry." This house belongs to you and Erniu, and it will be your dowry in the future! ”
"Zhong Laosi, are you crazy? Such a big house for the two of them to marry? Your son will not marry a daughter-in-law in the future? The village chief interjected again.
"Xiao Wu is still young, and your mother and I are not old yet! The eldest young master has helped our family so much, we can't let him lose money anymore, I also plan to return the ten acres of land to others, although our family is poor, but we can't lose our backbone! ”
Zhong Liyue comforted them and said, "Father, mother, you can live in peace in the house!" This hundred taels is what Mingyue and I deserve, it is more than enough to buy this house and those fields, village chief, are you right? ”
"The Shen family will pay you a hundred taels?" The village chief exclaimed, holding up a finger. He thought to himself, these two girls are so valuable? Big families are generous!
"You said a hundred taels is enough to buy these?" Zhong Liyue glared at him and asked.
"Enough, enough, what is the value of the land in the village!" The village nodded hurriedly. I was also surprised in my heart, why did I look at Zhong Liyue as if I was a little scared? This little girl is not the same as before, especially the eyes, when she stares at people, she is very sharp, just like a knife, and the eyes of the eldest young master of the Shen family are somewhat similar.
Zhong Liyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they didn't know the goods, and they didn't know what was good about those bricks and wood.
"Alright, it's getting late, it's time for dinner. Father, mother, you didn't eat well for the villagers of Zhang Luo at noon, you must be hungry now, right? I'll do it for you. Zhong Liyue stood up, with the intention of rushing to the guest: "Village chief, if you want to send a daughter into the Shen Mansion, it is more reliable to find Liu Po, we are introduced by Liu Po." You go to find Liu Po now, she must not have slept yet, so we won't send it. ”
The village chief knew that he was not interested, and walked away in a huff.
There were a lot of cold dishes and cold bowls in the yard, Mingyue took her two sisters and a few neighbors to clean up together, and Zhong Liyue warmly beckoned a few neighbors and aunts to stay and eat together at night.
But they were too embarrassed to eat again, so they cleaned up and went back.
Zhong Liyue thought that the family was finally reunited again, so she didn't keep it too much.
The sky gradually darkened, and Zhong Laosi took out two large lanterns from the house and hung them under the eaves.
"Dad and mother are really eccentric, we are reluctant to order when we are at home, and the eldest sister and second sister will order as soon as they come back." Jiao Yue quipped with a smile.
"They are suffering and angry outside, have you suffered? Without your eldest sister and second sister, can you live in such a good house? I don't know what to do! Zhong Lao Si said angrily.
Jiaoyue snorted, pursed her lips and didn't speak.
The family had dinner under the big lantern for the first time, and they all had some emotion in their hearts.
"Starving to death, starving to death, I want to eat!" Xiao Wu, who heard Ma's shouting for dinner, ran over from some corner and shouted loudly.
Zhong Liyue looked down at him, her little face was flushed, she was sweating profusely, she couldn't help but smile, and said angrily: "Do you remember to eat?" Haven't you had enough? ”
"Eldest sister, you are not allowed to talk about me, you say that I am called Xiaodouzi to beat you! I'm a big soldier now. Xiao Wu said arrogantly with an innocent face.
"You still dare to hit the eldest sister?" Jiao Yue pretended to be angry and twisted Xiao Wu's ears and said with a smile: "I've never seen such a small big-headed soldier!" ”
The whole family burst out laughing.
The family enjoyed eating and chatting in a bright environment, which used to be Zhong Liyue's great dream. Today finally got what she wanted, Zhong Liyue had infinite emotion in her heart.
The house is spacious, and the sisters can also have one room per person, but Jiaoyue and Jinyue both ran to Zhong Liyue's house to listen to her story. Before it started, Ma also sent Xiao Wu over: "This child is becoming more and more disobedient, I don't want us, I have to sleep with you!" ”
"You're a boy, how can you sleep with a girl?! Little five, are you ashamed? Jinyue joked.
Xiao Wu stuck out his tongue at her, made a grimace, and then kicked his little short legs, and suddenly got into Zhong Liyue's quilt, and still rolled in it to demonstrate.
Since he had a little friend, his personality has suddenly become much more cheerful. Children, sure enough, need playmates.
"Hey, what's the second girl?" Ma Shi glanced at them and asked.
"Mother, the second sister has changed her name and is called 'Mingyue'." Jiaoyue corrected seriously.
Ma smiled innocently and said, "Mingyue, Mingyue!" I called a few times last time and left, and we forgot about it again. I'm going to tell your father too, Xiao Wu will hand it over to you tonight. ”
"Eldest sister, third sister, should we go and call the second sister too?" Jinyue asked softly.
"You tap to take a look, are you asleep?" Zhong Liyue pushed Jiaoyue and said.
Jiao Yue Ma slipped out of bed to touch Mingyue's room, and after a while, she ran back quickly and said anxiously: "Eldest sister, eldest sister, second sister, she, she cried." ”
Zhong Liyue was stunned for a moment, and sighed silently in her heart.
"Eldest sister, what should I do?"
"Why is the second sister crying?" Jiaoyue and Jinyue don't know how to care about Mingyue.
Xiao Wu suddenly got out of the quilt and 'laughed': "Second sister is ashamed! Such a big person still cries his nose! (To be continued.) )
