Chapter 896: Look at each other
Two days later, sure enough, someone came to see the swallow, and in all fairness, the swallow's appearance was very good for the girl in the farmer's house.
Although it is not as outstanding as the appearance of the Lin family, it is also one of the best.
She suffers at home all year round, and she can't eat enough, so her face is yellow and thin, her hair is a little knotted, and her clothes are very tattered, so she doesn't look very outstanding.
Someone came to see her, of course Feng had to dress her up, she was wearing the best clothes, her hair was well washed, and she had a little fat powder on her face, which looked different.
The swallow dressed up and went outside, and met a few young men from the same village on the way, but the other party didn't recognize it.
After she left, the few people whispered, "Is this a swallow?" It's really good-looking, but I can't usually see it. ”
Another person said, "Of course I can't see it, you don't look at what kind of dress she usually wears, I've seen it before, I've always known that she looks good, but she doesn't have a good mother, hey, don't look at it, she looks good, and it's good to marry her home as a daughter-in-law, she is down-to-earth and diligent, my mother says she is a good girl." ”
"But her mother wants a dowry of fifty taels of silver, which one of our villages can take it? The Lin family can take it out, but how can Zijun Zikang and them marry their family? Yanzi's mother is willing, but she also knows how many catties and taels she weighs, except for the Lin family, no one can come up with this money, otherwise why would her mother think of marrying her to the town to be a concubine? ”
"It's also a hard life, a girl from a good family, who wants to be a concubine? Someone came to see her today, so she dressed up well. ”
Those few people have not yet married, and when it is time to marry, the family has also thought about it, Yanzi is a very good girl, everyone is watching, but her mother is a person who only recognizes money, there is really no way.
Yanzi went back home, busy with this and that, Feng Shi was anxious again, "What are you doing, you are too lazy to do anything on weekdays, someone is going to come to see each other today, you are working everywhere, I don't know and say that you are being bullied at home, don't make that bitter gourd face, for a while people will see that unhappy, you bring me a smile, if this is done today, you can have a good life for you in the future." ”
The swallow doesn't talk back, anyway, whatever her mother says, let her go to the house and stay with her, she will still be the same as usual, someone comes to the door to see each other, she deliberately clumsily spills the tea on the ground, if this can't scare people away, then you can only go to the next step.
After a while, someone from the family in the town came, not the housewife, but the housekeeper of the house, who had been with the housewife for many years, and she came to see the same.
In this poor place, the housewife didn't want to come over, so she came here, and after the adults talked for a while, Feng Shi found an excuse, called Yanzi out, and asked her to serve people a cup of tea. Ranwen
Yanzi still fell on the housekeeper's mother-in-law's shoes, Feng Shi hurriedly apologized, "Oh, my girl is good on weekdays, today I guess I saw a living person, I am a little embarrassed, I usually do some work at home, the door is not out of the door, it is inevitable to be a little nervous when I see people outside, but don't go to my heart." ”
The housekeeper's mother-in-law smiled, "It's okay, it's a Peugeot character, my third young master must like it, the third young grandmother has been in the door for five years, and her stomach has not moved, and she has accepted two concubines, one only gave birth to a girl, and the other belly is not angry, and there is no movement until now." ”
"My wife said to carry one back from the countryside, this country girl has been working in the field since she was a child, she has a good foundation, she is good at giving birth, she is looking at this, if your girl is willing to enter the house, Mrs. is willing to give a hundred taels of silver, if she gives birth to a little master, your family will also have indispensable benefits."
"Mother-in-law, I have a lot to say, the third young master of my family doesn't have a son now, if your girl has this blessing and her stomach is angry, she will be the eldest son who is born, do you want to tell me whether this identity is valuable?"
Feng Shi was very happy when he heard these words, "Then there are others, of course, it is very precious, but I don't know if this girl in my family has that blessing." ”
The housekeeper looked the swallow up and down, "I look good, but I have lost some weight." ”
Feng Shi hurriedly explained, "This girl picks her mouth, she doesn't eat this and doesn't eat, we don't have anything good to eat in the countryside, and her body is naturally a little worse, if she goes to the house to recuperate for a few days, she will definitely get better." ”
"My mother's sisters gave birth to sons in their first child, and my father-in-law has two younger sisters, who got married, and their first children also gave birth to sons, so please say a few more kind words in front of your wife, my daughter has entered the house, and it must be a son."
The good things were all said, and when they left, Feng also stuffed some money into the man, how much did they take out at home, Feng gritted his teeth, and still gave two coins of silver, so that she could say more good things.
Today's housekeeper is the mother-in-law, and the housewife is not the same, the housewife is to choose a daughter-in-law for her son, of course, you have to take a good look, this housekeeper is to do things for the master, anyway, it's not her business, as long as you don't mess things up, who is not the choice? So give her some money, and it will probably be done.
After she left, Feng Shi turned his head and scolded, "Don't think that I don't understand what you just did, don't you just want to be a concubine?" Just like you, it's a blessing to be able to be a concubine, your mother and I spent two dollars of silver today, if this thing doesn't work out again, you see how I clean you up. ”
Yanzi knelt down directly for her, "Mother, please, I really don't want to be a concubine, just let me marry someone casually, even if you sell me to a big family to be a maid, I am willing, I just don't want to be a concubine." ”
Feng Shi rolled up his sleeves and scolded, "You really say that you are a cheap skin, you are really good, you eat fragrant and drink spicy, you don't want to be the master, I sold you, you are happy to be a maid for others, what do you say you are thinking in your head?" Your mother and I are so shrewd, how did you give birth to such a fool as you? ”
"This thing should be able to be done today, you just deliberately spilled water on other people's shoes, and they didn't say anything, I also gave the silver, no matter what, you have to give me an explanation, you don't have to do so much work in the past two days, dress up well, I can't say that the young master of the Chen family has to come and see it in person."
