Since the puppet business stopped, Li Ziyu has been studying at home with her younger siblings behind closed doors in addition to taking her younger siblings to exercise in the morning.

There are still ten days to go before the New Year, and she plans to go to the town before the year to buy some New Year's goods and buy some firecrackers. This is her first year in the Daye Dynasty, and she wants to take her younger siblings to have a good New Year. Although there is less than a year to be filial piety, it does not prevent her from thinking about a good year.

She also wants to buy a few more pieces of cloth by the way, and make two spring shirts for herself and her younger siblings during the New Year. Buy dozens of catties of cotton and cloth to make a few single quilts. She planned to clean up the East House after the New Year, and she moved to the East House with Xiaohu and Xiaolan.

After the New Year, Xiaoshan will be ten years old, and he will be twelve years old. In ancient times, it was said that men and women were not seated at the age of seven, and there was no way before, but now it is better to separate them if they have conditions.

After breakfast that day, Li Ziyu and her younger siblings were practicing and reading in the west room, when they heard the sound of "popping" at the door of the courtyard.

After speculating that the puppet was the ghost of the Sun family, Li Ziyu closed the door every day in case of accidents.

Now that he heard the door ringing, although he knew that it was unlikely to be Miss Sun, he still asked Xiaoshan and Xiaowen to take care of his younger siblings in the house, and walked out alone.

Li Ziyu opened the door and was startled when she saw someone standing outside.

I saw a chubby woman at the door, her face was smeared with thick fat powder, her cheeks were bright red, her thick lips were smeared with blood-red rouge, and there was a conspicuous black mole on the right end of the bridge of her nose.

On the forehead is a forehead with black satin and gold trim, and a small flower is embroidered with gold thread in the middle of the forehead. There is an apricot-yellow satin flower on the left sideburns, and a large red satin flower on the right sideburns.

He wears a purple hibiscus cross-collar slanted placket satin shirt and a pair of safflower satin embroidered shoes on a green background. Holding a piece of red silk in her left hand and a silk folding fan in her right hand, she kept fanning in winter, and she was not afraid of fanning out the wind and cold.

"Who are you looking for?"

Li Ziyu looked at the fat woman so weirdly, looked up and down a few times that she didn't know her, and then asked.

"Oh, this is the eldest girl of the Li family, right? Come on, let's go into the house and say, it's not convenient to talk at the door. ”

The fat woman said with a familiar mouth, and her body wanted to bypass Li Ziyu into the courtyard.

Li Ziyu reached out and grabbed her left arm and made it not move at all: "Say, who are you?" What are you doing at my house? ”

The fat woman grinned in pain, and told again and again: "Oops, it hurts to death!" Why are you so strong, let go, I'm saying hello to you! ”

"What? Hi Dao? What does that mean, you make it clear! Li Ziyu let go of her and continued to ask.

The fat woman rubbed her left shoulder and said, "You don't know me, do you?" I'm Mrs. Zhang, and today I am"

"Wait, who do you say you are?" Li Ziyu thought that her ears had misheard.

"Mrs. Zhang! I said I'm Mrs. Zhang! Did you hear me this time? Mrs. Zhang stretched her clothes, patted the dust that did not exist on her body, raised her hand and pressed the flowers on her sideburns, straightened her chest, and showed a hint of reserve on her face.

It's like saying, you know who I am this time, right? Why don't you hurry up and invite me in?

Li Ziyu couldn't hold back for a while when she looked at Mrs. Zhang's appearance, and laughed out loud: "Mrs. Zhang, right?" Are you going to the wrong door? We don't have anyone in our family who needs your media, so you better leave quickly. ”

Li Ziyu knew that these matchmakers went from east to west, were well-informed, and she could deal with three religions and nine streams, so she didn't want to offend her.

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, not only did she not leave, but instead came to Li Ziyu and said with a smile: "Li Ziyu, right?" Actually, if you have a father and mother, I don't want to tell you in person. But isn't your father and mother gone, then I have to make an exception to tell you. That's right, I have a good family here, I want you to protect the media, you also know this one"

"Stop, stop, I don't want to hear which one you're talking about, and I don't want to find my in-laws so early. So, Mrs. Zhang, don't go any further" Li Ziyu only understood at this time, it turned out that Mrs. Zhang was here to protect herself, and she hurriedly interrupted her.

"Oh, why are you in such a hurry? I'm not done yet. This family wants to have a day, a family property, a character, a handsome young man, if you marry it, just wait to enjoy it. Regardless of Li Ziyu's obstruction, Mrs. Zhang said a lot of things by herself.

Li Ziyu saw that she couldn't stop her, so she listened to her quietly, and when she saw that she was finally over, she interjected and asked: "After talking for a long time, whose house is it?" ”

Mrs. Zhang smiled and slapped her mouth: "Look at me as a fool, it's Lin Qiang, the only son of Lin Yuanzhi in your village!" If you want to say that Lin Qiang is in this posterity, I really don't say it, honest, diligent, steadfast, willing to work, and grow well"

Lin Yuanzhi, Lin Qiang and Li Ziyu didn't have the heart to listen to Mrs. Zhang's tirade at all, and carefully recalled the situation of Lin Yuanzhi's family in her mind, this Lin Qiang seemed to have repaired a house for her family, and he looked like he was not very smart. It seems that I heard a few words from Xiaohuaniang and Aunt Yang, saying that Lin Qiang had a fever when he was a child, burned his brain, and his intelligence was a little impaired.

The problem is that it is such a person, in the eyes of the Lin family, it is still her Li Ziyu who takes advantage. After all, he has no father or mother, and the following brothers and sisters are still waiting to support themselves. What prompted the Lin family to make a matchmaker come to the door to say goodbye? After a little thought, I understand that it must be the purchase of land and rivers that attracts attention. In addition, I hit a deer not long ago, and in order to repay the favor, a few of them also gave venison, which is strange if it doesn't attract attention.

Li Ziyu turned around and saw that Mrs. Zhang was still talking, so she stepped forward and interrupted her: "Mother-in-law, you listen to me first." ”

"Huh? Okay, you say you say. Mrs. Zhang also happened to say that she was tired and wanted to take a breath, so she stopped.

Li Ziyu looked at Mrs. Zhang and said sincerely: "Mother-in-law, you see the current situation in my family, you must have heard of it." I don't want to say anything, I only have one sentence to ask you to tell the Lin family, my conditions are really not worthy. Besides, I'm still keeping filial piety for my father, and I'm too young to leave my younger siblings behind. Mother-in-law, I hope that if someone asks, you will say that I said, and it is impossible for me to say kiss before the age of eighteen. ”

"The Lin family didn't say that they would get married immediately, their family said that they could wait for you for a few years" Mrs. Zhang still wanted to talk about this family affair.

Li Ziyu forcibly suppressed the disgust in her heart, and said very resolutely: "Mother-in-law, don't say it again, I have made up my mind, and I will not change it." I don't watch my younger brothers get married, and I don't talk about family affairs. I'm sorry, let my mother-in-law run for nothing, and ask my mother-in-law to accept this bit of silver. Saying that, Li Ziyu gave Mrs. Zhang a purse, which contained two taels of silver.

Mrs. Zhang pinched her purse, and immediately opened her chrysanthemum face: "Don't worry, I promise to do things properly for you." With that, he twisted his chubby body and walked down the slope.

While walking, Mrs. Zhang thought that no wonder the Lin family would take a fancy to this little girl, she must have made a fortune. Well, he is sensible and generous. Unlike the Lin family, they also said that they would give five taels of silver when things were done, and they didn't pay for a big copper plate before. Hmph, just by virtue of this, this little girl is better than his family.

Thank you Xia Qian for the peace charm!
