According to the wine fairy, Liu Qiniang's parents gave birth to a total of thirteen children, all of whom were girls. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Children from poor families with many sisters, in order to win the favor of their parents and compete for the few things they have to eat, must learn to invite pets and sell obedient words.

A well-behaved child is well-behaved and sensible in the eyes of his parents, and a well-behaved and sensible child will always receive a little more care from his parents than other sisters: for example, every time he eats, he will have half more meat in his bowl than others, for example, every time he goes to work in the field, he will be assigned a slightly easier job, or every time he changes seasons, he will choose the color of the fabric first......

Don't always hear people say that the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all meat---- then there is also a difference between thin meat and thick meat: the back of the hand is thin, and the palm is thick!

Liu Qiniang is the thicker meat in the palm of Liu's father's hand.

Under the influence of a group of sisters in the family, Liu Qiniang learned early to see the wind and make the rudder understand people's hearts, so when Liu's father was seriously ill, the first to be pushed out were a pair of twin sisters who were two years younger than herself.

Liu Banniang and Liu Jiuniang, who had just turned fifteen, were sent to the song and dance workshop to be female plays.

Later, seeing that the silver money exchanged for a pair of daughters was decreasing, and the ten niangs behind were not yet twelve, even if they were sent to be women's plays, they were not willing to accept them, and Liu's father turned his attention to the already slim Qi Niang.

Because she was his favorite daughter, Liu's father was not willing to sell her into the song and dance workshop, but found a matchmaker and set the lame blacksmith with the most bride price for Qi Niang as her husband in a group of relatives who asked for relatives.

In Liu's father's opinion, although the blacksmith is a cripple, but the family has the craft to support the family, although the bride price received by the married girl is not as much as the silver money sold to the song and dance workshop, but Qi Niang will still be a good family with an innocent background in the future, which is much better than not being a lowly citizen.

It's just that Liu Qiniang doesn't think so.

The six sisters on Qi Niang have all been married, five of them are married to farmers and hunters in the surrounding villages, and they are now living a life of firewood, rice, oil and salt, only the three niangs who were sent to the song and dance workshop by their father are the most promising.

Liu Sanniang entered the song and dance workshop at the age of fourteen, although she was a lowly person, but with Sanniang's left-right temperament, she finally redeemed herself and married a low-ranking knife and pen official to fill the house. Although the little official said that there was not much silver, but the family background was quite solid, and now Sanniang was accompanied by servants and women in and out, and the shelf was getting bigger and bigger, and there was a faint prestige of some official wives.

It's a pity that Sanniang resents the old thing that Liu's father sold him into the song and dance workshop, so since marrying the little official, she has never entered the gate of the Liu family. When Liu's father first fell ill, he also scolded his wife and Qi Niang to go to the third daughter's husband's house to find relatives, but Sanniang only asked her subordinates to send a few big sums out, and she didn't even see her own mother and sister.

As long as Liu Qiniang remembered the rich scene she saw at her third brother-in-law's house that day, she couldn't get married anymore, and even complained faintly in her heart, complaining about why her father didn't send her to the song and dance workshop.

In order not to marry the cripple blacksmith, Liu Qi Niang took the risk of being rejected by Liu's father, and cried and went on a hunger strike for three or five days, but seeing that Liu's father was unmoved and faintly angry, Qi Niang spontaneously extinguished the idea of making trouble again.

She Liu Qiniang has lived for 17 years, and what she knows the most is to accept it when she sees it.

But after bumping into Shi Yuan and his party, Qi Niang's originally silent mind became active again.

She knew that the mountain forest not far from the village was the paddock where the princess of Chu hunted, and she also faintly felt that the group of freshly dressed and angry horses would go there to hunt, so she went to the road outside the paddock to wait on the sun, until the sun waned, and a group of young men who returned with a full load rode out, and she stopped steadily in the middle of the road, blocking the way of Shiyuan and them.

A group of ordinary arrogant sons and buddies were suddenly annoyed, and even scolded in a hurry, but Liu Qiniang knelt down without hurry, raised her head and seriously swept over the faces of these noble sons one by one.

With just one glance, Liu Qiniang identified the black-faced man in the crowd who was not amazing.

She respectfully walked a few steps to the Shiyuan horse, and then made a steady salute.

Without waiting for Shi Yuan to speak, Qi Niang spoke eloquently about the fact that she was promised to the blacksmith by her father, and kowtowed again after speaking, and then said: The people's daughter does not want to marry, so she asks the nobles for mercy and helps me solve this family affair that is not right.

When even someone ridiculed: The little lady doesn't want to marry a cripple, isn't it because she hates the poor and loves the rich, and she can't fall in love with our Shiyuan son?

Qi Niang is neither humble nor arrogant: But it's not that she hates the poor and loves the rich, but she just doesn't want to scribble her life like this. The blacksmith was diligent, but tyrannical and crippled. Although I don't say that the flowers and the moon are beautiful, but the victory is that the limbs are intact and not mutilated, and I do not seek to be rich and rich, but only to ask for a man with a good heart to spend this life with me. Don't say it's me, even if you are all present, who doesn't want to marry a woman with the same status as their appearance? If anyone compels you to marry a man with an ugly face and a mutilated limb, will you be able to have no grudges? Or maybe there is a fairy-like beauty who comes to you, but if this beauty is a heavenly maiden, then who of you present can spend time with it like an ordinary beauty? In the final analysis, if you want a good couple, you have to be the right person, otherwise, in the end, it is just a pair of couples who have a miserable life.

Qi Niang's words made all the sons laugh, and even the temperamental one began to tease Qi Niang and said, Since you don't look down on the cripple, how about I marry you and go home? The words were incomprehensible. Qi Niang was not annoyed when she saw this, she only got up calmly and said: The folk girl just didn't want to marry indiscriminately, and because her father's life was difficult to do, she was helpless, so she fell here and disturbed the nobles. I thought that this was the princess's paddock, and there were some noble and elegant people who came and went, and if I could ask someone to say a few kind words in front of my father to solve my troubles, I would repay the king's great kindness for the rest of my life, but now it seems that I am not blessed, and since I have such a marriage, I will accept my fate.

After speaking, he didn't look at these boys and brothers, only bowed deeply, and then turned around and left.

A group of official sons laughed again, but Liu Qiniang didn't look back. Shi Yuan only said nothing, and when Liu Qiniang walked away, he shook the reins of the horse and rushed out, and those people behind him saw it and followed with a giggling horse, and no one looked at Liu Qiniang again.

Three days later, a middle-aged man with a slight figure came to Liu Qiniang's house, and he left Liu's father a pen that was enough for the whole family to spend for one or two decades.

After another half a month, Liu's father, whose condition had improved slightly, suddenly wanted to drink fish soup, and the filial Liu Qiniang led her sister Thirteen Niang, who was just over three years old, to catch fish in the river at the head of the village.
