After Mrs. Lu was happy, a faint worry came to her mind again, as soon as she heard Zhou Tiehammer say that Xiangtao's granddaughter and Xiao Bing were mutually prosperous, she agreed, but forgot to ask the girl about her ability to behave in the world and run a family, and said worriedly: "Brother Zhou, I don't know what kind of person the granddaughter of the Xiangtao family is?" ”

Mr. Zhou shouted, "What's wrong? Do you still want to see skins? ”

Mrs. Lu smiled and explained: "I don't mean that, I have a hard time, now everything in the family is presided over by my old woman who is half buried in the soil, and there is no virtuous woman who can support the family business for her children and grandchildren, only to find a capable and spicy great-granddaughter-in-law, it doesn't hurt to be older, it is best to be the head of the house as soon as you enter the door." ”

Mr. Zhou suddenly said, "Don't worry, the eldest granddaughter of the Peach family is sixteen years old this year, smart and capable, black and strong, just like Peach back then." ”

Mrs. Lu asked him, "How is the housekeeper?" ”

"The little girl has learned well with Peach Blossom, not to mention your small family of more than ten people, even the thirty or so people who have no family in Peach can come down at the moment."

Mrs. Lu was very satisfied, stroked her palms and smiled: "Okay, good!" What a match made in heaven! My little C is thirteen this year, the girl is sixteen, and the third female college is holding gold bricks, good! Brother Lao Zhou is bothered, if Xiangtao agrees, I will call the shots, and when Xiao Bing finishes the children's exam next year, I will marry her the year after tomorrow! ”

Lu Xiaoyi was surprised and couldn't speak, with a cup of tea, Bingyu's family affair was decided, and she was a black and strong girl who was three years older than him, and she also agreed to marry at the age of fifteen. Oops, the amount of information eavesdropping on today is too large, and Lu Xiaoyi can't digest it.

Looking at Ji Luo again, his eyes were already round in shock, and he looked at Lu Xiaoyi in disbelief.

Lu Xiaoyi pointed to the front yard, and the two crept back to the front yard and sat on the stone bench under the pear tree to exchange experiences.

Ji Luo whispered: "Cousin, my great-grandmother has decided on my eldest brother's family affairs?" Did I hear me right? ”

"You heard it right, and you didn't understand it wrong."

Ji Luo looked in the direction of the book house and muttered, "I'm going to tell my eldest brother to go." ”

Lu Xiaoyi grabbed her. "We're eavesdropping. Don't you reveal your stuff as soon as you say it? ”

"What then?"

"You can't say it explicitly, you have to turn around and ask Bingyu, for example: Do you like the black and strong girl? Do you like girls who are a few years older than you? Do you like smart and capable girls? Would you like to start a family at the age of fifteen? ”

Ji Luo nodded, thought about it and said sadly: "Actually, it's useless to tell the eldest brother." Great-grandmother set the mark. He could only obey. And listening to Mrs. Zhou's tone, this family affair is also related to our family's luck and feng shui, and my great-grandmother will not change it. And. My great-grandmother whispered in my ear more than once, saying that she would not live long, and that she would not be able to leave this family at ease, and that she would marry a capable daughter-in-law for her eldest brother and let her help support this family. ”

Lu Xiaoyi comforted: "Xiaoji, you have done a good job!" ”

Ji Luo smiled at her, and her eyes were a little sad at a young age.

Lu Xiaoyi sighed in his heart, and looked up at the big tree full of green pears, because it hindered the feng shui of the big house, this pear tree was about to be cut down. Similarly, if Mr. Zhou said that the camphor tree outside her yard affected Feng Shui, Lu Xiaoyi believed that her father would also cut it off without blinking. These mystical and mysterious theories of luck are too illusory, and the reason why people believe in them is just to have peace of mind for a while.

Lu Xiaoyi secretly prayed that Mrs. Lu did not see the wrong person this time, and could marry a virtuous helper for Bingyu's cousin, and also hoped that the feng shui luck of Mr. Zhou, a part-time matchmaker, would be reliable and effective, and could bring some expectations for the revitalization of the big house.

At this time, the courtyard door was squeaked open, Jia Wei and her mother came back from outside, Jia Wei carried a basket of melons and vegetables, her mother carried a basket of pigweed, Ji Luo actively stepped forward to help Jia Wei carry vegetables, but Jia Wei was sideways to block it.

"Eldest sister, I'll help you carry it." Jiluo is proactive.

"No, you don't." Jia Wei coldly evaded.

Ji Luo was not discouraged, and finally grabbed the basket handle with a left and right strike, Jia Wei shook the basket a few times, and couldn't shake off Ji Luo's hand at all.

Jia Wei is tall, Ji Luo is short, the two of them carry a basket together, Ji Luo is completely weak, as if hanging on the basket, Jia Wei doesn't care about her, just go to the backyard one high and one low, when passing by Xiao Yi's side, he glanced at her and didn't speak.

Lu Xiaoyi shouted cousin with a smile, Jia Wei nodded, and walked away expressionlessly.

As for Lu Si's daughter-in-law, she didn't care about Xiaoyi at all, and even gave her a stingy look, Lu Xiaoyi still politely called her aunt, and saw that she didn't stop or look back, and went straight to the backyard.

Don't think about yourself, blame others, hey! Lu Xiaoyi shook his head and did not express an opinion, sat back on the stone bench and continued to wait for Mr. Zhou.

After sitting for a while, he got bored, and when he heard the sound of reading aloud, Lu Xiaoyi tiptoed to the window of the study room, poked out a pair of eyes and looked inside, only to see Lu Fuzeng shaking his head and teaching to read an article, every time he read a sentence, he stopped and waited for the students to read aloud, read the whole article and then explain it word by word, although the behavior was pedantic, but the attitude of teaching was extremely serious.

Lu Xiaoyi peeked for a long time, no student looked back at her, they were all listening to Mr. seriously, even Xiao Geng, who was sitting in front, sat upright and looked like he was listening carefully, this kid didn't know when he didn't doze off, and he went home to teach his sisters to read and write.

Mr. Zhou's laughter came from the hall, and it seemed that he was leaving, Lu Xiaoyi left the study house lightly and returned to the courtyard to wait.

Mr. Zhou was supported by Lu Shouzeng all the way, stopped in the courtyard for a while, and said with a smile: "The sound of books is loud, the place where spirits gather!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi guessed that the aura that Mr. Zhou said was roughly the surging vitality, vigorous vitality and strong desire for knowledge of the young man, thinking of what Mr. Zhou said outside the Zhangjia Courtyard before, Lu Xiaoyi scratched his heart and wanted to know the mystery.

"Taigong, what do you mean by the phrase 'back to ya'? Please solve your doubts! Lu Xiaoyi felt that she was becoming more and more like Mrs. Lu, and once she had something in her heart, she wanted to find out and ask for clarification. I couldn't calm down at all, and I couldn't hold my breath.

In fact, Lu Shouzeng also wanted to know, but he could calm down, and at this time, he listened to Xiao Yi's question, and pretended to educate her, "Xiao Yi, don't ask blindly, some things leak the secret of heaven, don't be embarrassed." ”

Yes, if you leak the heavens, you will be punished by heaven, and Mr. Zhou is already dying. Punish God again. Wouldn't it be his life, Lu Xiaoyi hurriedly apologized to Mr. Zhou and asked him for forgiveness.

Mr. Zhou stroked his beard and smiled: "It's okay, it's just a feng shui pattern." 'Back to the pass' means that the house has its back to the pass and faces the pass. This is an inauspicious pattern. If the main family does good deeds and accumulates virtue, it can be resolved a little, but if it lacks virtue and does evil..."Mr. Zhou paused for a moment and muttered softly: "The back is to the Ya, and the widow is in charge." ”

Mr. Zhou's murmuring was too quiet. Lu Xiaoyi didn't listen to the truth, he vaguely heard the words, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to think deeply, but he faintly doubted it.

When passing by the courtyard of the Zhang family, Lu Xiaoyi deliberately stopped to observe and found that as Mr. Zhou said, the courtyard of the Zhang family was backed by a low mountain pass, and the front of the courtyard was also facing a pass in the distance. Thinking of that widow again, Lu Xiaoyi quickly shook his head and threw away those thoughts in his mind, superstition and superstition are obsessed, don't think about it! Don't think about it! Lu Xiaoyi secretly warned herself, but when she returned to her home, she still couldn't help but look to see if there were any passes around the new foundation.

Lu Xiaoyi secretly said that it was over, the old man of Zhongzhou was poisoned, and he hurriedly found an excuse to sneak to the stove room on the west side of the courtyard.

Yulan and Wang Dongmei were already preparing for the noon meal, there were many craftsmen who built the house and helpers in the village, and the two women were busy going around, seeing Xiaoyi coming back, Yulan hurriedly threw her a basket and asked her to go to the vegetable field to pick some melons and vegetables and come back.

When I came back from the vegetable field, I met Qi Shan and others who came by car, and they looked like laborers with short brown linen all over their bodies.

Qi Feng parked the carriage beside Lu Xiaoyi, jumped out of the carriage and reached out to pick up the vegetable basket, Lu Xiaoyi was struggling to lift it, and hurriedly handed it to him.

Qi Feng put the vegetable basket at the front of the car, holding the reins in parallel with Lu Xiaoyi.

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Brother Feng, our family can't bake cakes when we build a house, and you won't be able to do business." ”

Qi Feng smiled and said, "I'm tired of selling cakes, so I just took this opportunity to rest." ”

"Hehe, our family is short of labor to repair the house, can't you come to contribute?"

"Isn't this coming?" Qi Feng spoke, showing off his sturdy arms, "Two hundred piers a day to lift boulders is not practiced in vain. ”

Lu Xiaoyi praised: "Great, our family is lacking strong labor like you!" ”

Qi Shan laughed in the carriage and shouted loudly: "I have locked the door of the shop, when will your family build the house, and when will we go back to open the door." ”

Xu Wu said excitedly: "Master, when the time comes, let's have another vigorous opening celebration, and then go to the restaurant to pack a few tables of delicious food, how about it?" ”

Qi Shan laughed, "Okay, you can pay for the money." ”

Xu Wu laughed, "You take it first, and deduct it from my salary in the future." ”

"you! Your little salary has been deducted for three hundred years, hurry up, take out the money you have earned over the years! ”

Xu Wu complained, "The master, that's my daughter-in-law, I still count on those silver money to marry my daughter-in-law!" ”

"I shout every day to marry a daughter-in-law, but I haven't even married a hair until now." Qi Shan's voice was loud, and he was heard by a fat woman on the side of the road, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Qi Feng, who was leading the horse, "Eh! Huh! Wait, who wants to marry a daughter-in-law? I helped pull the strings. ”

Lu Xiaoyi saw that it was Qin Matchmaker.

Qi Shan smiled and pushed Xu Wu out of the car, "Go!" Go! Marry your daughter-in-law! ”

Xu Wu followed outside the carriage with a bitter face, and Mrs. Qin followed him and chattered, a little widow and a big girl for a while, talking with her eyebrows fluttering and spitting.

Lu Xiaoyi glanced into the carriage, and saw Zhang Tieniu sitting still, his face looked a little more worried, as for what he was worried about, Lu Xiaoyi knew that there were two strong competitors, Qi Shan and Xu Wu, Lu Xiaoyi secretly sweated for Zhang Tieniu.

She, an incompetent matchmaker, only leads one end, and the other end is still undecided, more than half a year has passed, Zhang Tieniu has never said a word to Su Qing, and has not even had a face-to-face, Zhang Tieniu is honest and does not squint every time he goes into the backyard to move cakes. Su Qing turned a blind eye to him, just buried his head and kneaded his face, Lu Xiaoyi knew that Zhang Tieniu was very anxious, but he didn't know what Su Qing thought in his heart, although the sadness between her eyebrows and eyes faded a lot, but the closed heart needed more time.

Lu Xiaoyi occasionally mentioned Zhang Tieniu before Su Qing told him, but he didn't dare to go too far, so he could only point to it, hoping that such an occasional mention without a trace would make Su Qing have a good impression of Zhang Tieniu over time! (To be continued.) )
