Chapter Seventy-Eight: Betting
Originally, Li Xiaocao hurriedly gathered a table of dishes and personally invited Lu Zhiqing's third brother to come to the house for dinner.
She had just arrived outside Lu Zhiqing's house and heard Lu Ting'an's words.
I have to say that everything Lu Tingan said is the truth!
Even if it is said that it is the first day, there is nothing in their Nanshan Village that can compare with the capital city.
In the eyes of the people in the village, Lu Zhiqing's good life, such as eating fine grains, wearing new clothes, and not having to cook, is actually a hard life in the eyes of the Lu family.
Because Lu Zhiqing lived a life of being a master in Beijing, eating the essence of fine grains, and wearing the most expensive clothes in the new clothes, not only did she not have to cook, but she also didn't have to do anything, she only needed to do what she liked happily every day......
Li Xiaocao herself has a daughter, and she understands the Lu family's thoughts too well.
But at the same time, she also knew that the second child really liked Lu Zhiqing, and she really fell in love with Lu Zhiqing, and wanted Lu Zhiqing to be her daughter-in-law.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaocao looked down at his heel clothes with patches, and for the first time sprouted a huge inferiority complex.
She is such a spicy person, she doesn't even have the courage to go inside.
But thinking about it again, Feng Cuiying dared to take advantage of their absence to chew the root of her tongue in front of the third brother of the Lu family, and immediately became angry, and ran directly to the shed built on top of the burned ruins of the Qin family and gave Feng Cuiying two punches!
Feng Cuiying herself was cooking wild vegetables, muttering in her mouth: "Li Xiaocao, who is shameless, is still looking forward to marrying a daughter-in-law in the city, and Lu Zhiqing's third brother already knows about their Gu family's pickles...... Yes!!! ”
She was beaten hard by Li Xiaocao by the hair, and Qin Jianye next to her hurriedly came to pull it, who knew that Li Xiaocao turned her head and gave Qin Jianye a slap!
Qin Jianye was angry: "You old immortal!" Don't blame me for being ruthless! ”
Originally, Qin Jianye's house was on fire, and he resented the Gu family in his heart, and at this time, Li Xiaocao came to the door to beat people, of course he wanted to take the opportunity to teach Li Xiaocao a hard lesson!
But who knew that although Li Xiaocao was a woman and Qin Jianye was a young man with strong blood, but after the two really fought, Qin Jianye was not her opponent!
Li Xiaocao pressed Qin Jianye to the ground and spat in his face: "Little rabbit cub!" It's a soft bag like your mother! With such a good character, you don't have the energy to have children after marrying a daughter-in-law! ”
After beating the mother and son of the Qin family, Li Xiaocao slipped up and went home, hiding his merit and fame.
When Qin Jianye and his father came back from picking up firewood, he saw the mother and son who were crying on the ground, so angry that they threw away the firewood, squatted on the wall and smoked their cigarette bags.
In the past, Li Xiaocao made decisions about everything in the Gu family.
But now she subconsciously thought of Gu Yaohua, turned her head and went home, Gu Yaohua was setting the dishes and chopsticks, Li Xiaocao pulled him into the house, and told him what Lu Sange said as it was.
"Yaohua, what do you say about this? Our family is poor, but we are not worthy of Lu Zhiqing, I want to help the second child marry Lu Zhiqing by smashing pots and selling iron, but how much money is it worth smashing pots and selling iron? I don't even know how to open my mouth! ”
She used to think that she could sell blood as a last resort, but now she realized that some things were useless even if she was sold!
Gu Yaohua hasn't seen his little son yet, just listening to Xiaocao's description, Gu Ye is a very reliable kid, very similar to when he was young! It was the boss Gu Shan, who followed the weakness of the Gu family's grandfather.
But getting married is not a trivial matter, Gu Yaohua only pondered for a few seconds, and suddenly asked Li Xiaocao: "Why did I marry you before, do you remember?" ”
Li Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, and her face turned slightly red.
At the beginning, her father did not agree with her marrying the Gu family, because Gu Yaohua and his mother were famous eccentrics, and they only loved the eldest son and not the younger son, Gu Yaohua went to serve as a soldier at the age of sixteen, and the allowance sent back was spent by Gu Yaohua and his mother on the eldest son, and there was no place to sleep for a few days after visiting relatives all year round.
The parents are biased to this point, and the parents of other girls are unwilling to let their daughters marry Gu Yaohua after a little inquiry.
But Gu Yaohua ran to Li Xiaocao and his father, and sincerely planned the days after marriage, and the allowance after marriage was no longer handed over to his mother, and the couple lived their own small life alone, and he would set up three other earthen houses to live with Xiaocao and so on.
At that time, Li Xiaocao's father sneered: "It's so easy to get up in the house? Do you have the money to build a house? It's so easy, everyone can live in a new house! ”
Gu Yaohua, who was only eighteen years old at the time, had firm eyes: "As long as I get the house up, will you promise me to marry Xiaocao?" ”
Li Xiaocao's father's face did not change: "As long as you have a house and a source of livelihood, your mother will not dare to bully Xiaocao, then I will naturally agree!" ”
After all, Gu Yaohua when he was young was indeed a talent, he was tall and big, and he was a soldier with an allowance, at first glance, the conditions were very good, but if this allowance couldn't reach Li Xiaocao's hands, everything would be in vain!
But the most important thing is the residence, the Gu family's house is narrow, and there is no place for Gu Yaohua to live, where can Li Xiaocao live?
Recalling the past, Li Xiaocao muttered to himself: "In those days, you were like crazy, day and night to pick up river mud, go up the mountain to carry stones, cut trees to make beams, and the people in the village are talking about you being crazy, how can a person build a good house?" But you always ignore what others say, and you are so tired that you lose your appearance. These three earthen houses were all ...... you started at that time."
Gu Yaohua did what he promised, to build a house for Li Xiaocao, give her all the allowances, and make a big fuss with his parents to prevent them from embarrassing Xiaocao.
So they are very affectionate, every time Gu Yaohua goes home to visit relatives, Li Xiaocao is so weak that he can't walk well, and he gave birth to three children one after another.
It's just that it didn't take long for the good days to disappear......
Seeing Li Xiaocao's sad appearance, Gu Yaohua hugged her shoulder: "Xiaocao, things are man-made, sometimes when you want to do something well, the whole world will make way for you." ”
For example, he wanted to marry Li Xiaocao at that time, for example, in the next ten years, Li Xiaocao pulled three children.
Gu Yaohua's explanation made Li Xiaocao feel a lot more comfortable, and immediately said, "You're right!" What should be done, people just have to be neither humble nor arrogant, let's go and invite Lu Zhiqing and her brother to dinner! Wait for Gu Ye to come back! ”
The two of them rushed towards Lu Zhiqing's side together, and when they arrived at the door, they unexpectedly found that many people from the village came to the door of Lu Zhiqing's hut and were talking around Lu Zhiqing's third brother!
"Ouch, Brother Lu Zhiqing, don't you know, Lu Zhiqing is the great benefactor of our village! The last landslide was when she noticed something was wrong in advance and reminded us to avoid danger!
There is also this kind of fertilizer or something, Lu Zhiqing took us to get it, this dish grows well! The sprouts germinated faster than last year! Lu Zhiqing is a good girl, everyone in our village likes her, and she will never be wronged! ”
"That's it, although Gu Ye, this young man, grew up in Nanshan Village, he is also powerful! I usually don't like to talk, but I can rely on it at critical moments, and one person can kill a wild boar!
What's going on in my village, someone is sick or something, they all rely on him to carry people to the hospital, last time the old woman of the old Li family had a sudden illness and almost died, thanks to Gu Ye, the child ran all the way to the town with people on his back! If Lu Zhiqing marries Gu Ye, he will definitely not be wronged! ”
The eldest daughter-in-law next to her squeezed in and stuffed Lu Yan with a basket of vegetables and eggs: "Your brother is finally here, treat him well." Brother Lu, don't worry, Gu Ye really didn't say to Lu Zhiqing, the road at this gate was a mud road at the beginning,
Soon after they arrived, one day when it was dark, I saw someone quietly laying stones on the road, and I was still wondering what this person was doing...... Later, I figured it out, at that time, Gu Ye was worried about Lu Zhiqing, and he was afraid that Lu Zhiqing would not be used to this muddy road, so he paved the stones. ”
Those kind and simple people in the village all came out all of a sudden, everyone stuffed eggs into Lu Zhiqing's house, vegetables grown by themselves, steamed buns stuffed with brown sugar, all of them were enthusiastic, and they were all talking about Gu Ye and Lu Zhiqing's good words!
Lu Tingan prides himself on being knowledgeable, but this is the first time he has seen such a scene.
Looking at his sister Lu Yan who was standing beside him smiling sweetly, he suddenly found that he had never seen her smile so pure and happy.
It's like a kind of happiness and enjoyment that comes from the heart of the soul.
Li Xiaocao and Gu Yaohua were also very moved, and stepped forward and said, "Third brother of the Lu family, let's go to my house for dinner!" Let's sit down and talk slowly, no matter what happens in the end, it's fate to know each other! ”
