Chapter 220: Disapproving of Family Affairs
Only then did Wang Laohan know that Liu Ya had come out, and it was too late to let go of his frowning brows.
Looking at his granddaughter's clear gaze, Wang Laohan couldn't say anything perfunctory.
"That girl is good, but the mother of the family is ...... Alas! ”
Wang Laohan let out a long sigh and walked forward with his hands behind his back.
Liu Ya followed Wang Laohan's side, and the two walked to the entrance of the village, and Wang Laohan continued to speak, talking about the situation of the family.
The girl's name is Bai Tao, and she is the eldest daughter of the family, and there is a sister of a mother's sibling, and a sister brought over by her stepmother, and a half-brother.
The stepmother gave birth to a son and became more and more harsh on the Bai Tao sisters, completely planning to sell these two daughters, if it wasn't for the high dowry, Bai Tao would have married a long time ago.
"Your eldest cousin is the eldest son and grandson of the Wang family, and if the family is going to split up in the future, he will also set up a household. But your uncle is like this now, and your eldest cousin is also ......."
Wang Laohan sighed again, and said worriedly: "At my age, I'm afraid that the junior's life will not be satisfactory." But the situation in the girl's family can't stop in the future. ”
"Does Grandpa approve of this family business?" Liu Ya asked.
"It's not that I disagree, the girl is good, capable and good-tempered. But the people who couldn't support her in her mother's family caused her trouble. Wang Laohan said with a headache.
Liu Ya sighed in her heart, and she also understood why Wang Laohan was unhappy.
Marriage is not a matter of two people, but a matter of two families, which is why the ancients said that they would marry a wife and marry a virtuous person.
Being able to teach a virtuous daughter shows that the family style is not bad, and such an in-law will only help.
"Is that the girl in my eldest cousin's picture?" Liu Ya asked.
"Hmm." Wang Laohan nodded, so he didn't say it deeply, because he was afraid that the eldest grandson would not be able to meet the girl in the picture as a daughter-in-law in the future.
Liu Ya pursed her lips, she didn't believe in love at first sight, but it was difficult for men and women in ancient times to have the opportunity to have contact, and it was difficult for the first person to leave traces in her heart to be replaced.
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and grandpa should believe that the eldest cousin is not something that can be handled. Besides, if the girl is really sensible, she should also know the trade-offs, grandpa and relax. ”
Holding Wang Laohan's arm, Liu Ya sighed in her heart, and also understood that such a marriage would inevitably have trivial troubles in the future.
But don't you just need fireworks to get by?
As long as the hearts of the young couple are in one place, there are always more solutions than problems.
"I came back this time because I wanted to tell my grandfather about a few uncles and cousins who made a living."
Liu Ya diverted the topic, and couldn't bear to let Wang Laohan worry about his children and grandchildren at this age.
"Making a living?"
Wang Laohan's attention was really diverted, and without waiting for Liu Ya to speak, he said: "I have also thought about this matter, and I will let them come back when the autumn harvest comes." There is a lot of land at home, and it is better to open up some wasteland after the harvest than to look at people's faces outside. ”
Wang Laohan was reluctant to mention the matter of his eldest granddaughter, after all, he was not able to protect his sensible and well-behaved eldest granddaughter, and it was the Wang family who owed the child.
But the other grandchildren can't have any more accidents, and Wang Laohan is distressed.
"If the family's land can't be planted, they will be rented out, and they will make less money. I wanted to ask my grandfather if I wanted my uncle to go to the county seat to make a living. ”
"I have a relationship with the eldest lady of the mayor's family, her senior brother is doing cao luck business in the county, if you open a few pawns to sell food at that end, you can also make a lot of money, it is easier than going to work outside, and I am not afraid that someone will bully me."
When I went to the dock, Liu Ya had this idea.
In fact, it's not just the wharf, it's also possible to set up a stall near the vegetable market on weekdays, and the cost doesn't take much, and Liu Ya can be sponsored by friendship.
Although he is only a small vendor, his annual income is also very considerable, and he may be able to gain a foothold in the county in the future, which depends on the ability of the Wang family.
"We are all from the countryside, and we can only make coarse tea and light rice, can we set up a stall?"
Wang Laohan moved his mind, but he was not sure.
Liu Ya patted her flat chest and said: "I'll leave this matter to me, it won't take more than a month to set up a stall, and you have to do it to see how much you earn." ”
Wang Laohan just thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Grandpa believes in you, then ask someone to bring the letter to let them come back, it's a big deal to come back to the village in the autumn, and then I will farm steadily." ”
The grandfather and grandson made this decision, but they didn't need the approval of others, Wang Laohan was the real head of the family.
After Uncle Wang and the others learned of Liu Ya's idea, they did not raise any objections, only Wang Qing seemed to have some ideas, but in the end he did not speak.
The mother stayed in Wang's house for one night and then went back to the village to marry, Liu Wang and Liu Ye were busy making new clothes for the Wang family, Liu Ya was responsible for the trivial affairs of the family, and Xing'er was not idle when they could help with anything.
When the village chief's daughter-in-law came to the door, Liu Wang's mother and mother were still busy with needlework, and they were afraid of hurting Xiaosi, so they asked Liu Miao and Xing'er to take them to their house to coax.
"I'm here to ask if you want to catch a piglet, my sow's litter of lambs is strong, and it will start to be sold in a few days."
As soon as the village chief's daughter-in-law finished speaking, she listened to Liu Wang's nod vigorously and said, "Yes, my aunt will leave me a few." I have to ask my aunt to help raise it for a few days, and when the yard behind me is covered, I can only bring it back to a pigsty. ”
"That's not in a hurry, is it just that your mother raised so many people?" The village chief's daughter-in-law asked.
"I don't have anything to do this day, Miao'er and Xing'er can help take care of the baby, and raising a few more pigs can also exchange some oil and salt money, right? If my aunt holds chickens at home, she will also leave me two nests, and I will have to spend money to buy an egg if I can't eat it. ”
Liu Wang's family felt distressed when he thought about the silver he had spent on frangipani in the past year, which was more than the money that people in the village had spent on meat in a year.
But Liu Ya said that eating eggs is good for the body, so Liu Wang's family never stopped him, but he had long been looking forward to raising some chickens, ducks and geese at home, so he kept the eggs to eat.
"Grandma Cousin will keep it for our family, we don't need the work in the field, so we'll be busy."
Since she was a child, she has been responsible for raising poultry in the old house, and Liu Ye is also very keen on it, even if the money she makes is not as much as she earns by hand.
In the new yard, she agreed to raise some poultry at home, but she didn't expect that Liu Wang and Liu Ye wanted to change the current yard into a pigsty and chicken rack.
When Liu Ya knew, when she saw her family excitedly talking about how to divide labor, she couldn't say anything to hit people.
"Hard work masters, when the house is completed, I invite everyone to eat a table in the restaurant."
Looking at the speed at which the house was built, Liu Ya promised generously.
As for the quality of the house, Liu Ya, a layman, can only look at the appearance, and he is very satisfied.
The master took the lead in thanking them, and they went to build houses everywhere, and they could eat the banquet noodles after they were finished, but most of them were prepared by the host's family, and it was rare to go to the restaurant to eat.
"Liu Ya, I have something I want to discuss with you, can you take a step to speak?"
The master pondered for a while, and whispered to Liu Ya.
Liu Ya was puzzled, but he still followed the master to a place where there were few people, but it was not a blind spot, but others couldn't hear them clearly.
"Are you in trouble building a house?" Liu Ya asked.
