Aunt Zhou said with a smile: "San Lang and Lian'er are not young, and they have reached the age when they should say goodbye." You are doing business outside, and you have a wide range of people, and your aunt wants to ask you to help them keep an eye on them. San Lang's daughter-in-law in the future, the requirements of the sister-in-law are not high, I just hope that she has a good temperament, is diligent and sensible, and is a person who can live. As for Lian'er, I thought that she could find a young offspring who was down-to-earth and capable, would feel distressed, and knew the roots. ”

As she spoke, Aunt Zhou glanced at Lin Tieniang.

Lin Ruan raised his eyebrows, and immediately understood what Aunt Zhou meant. It seems that this is a candidate for a son-in-law who has long been optimistic, let her help to make peace. As for Wednesday Lang, it's just an add-on, and it's just a piggyback.

Lin Ruan felt funny in his heart, and Aunt Zhou's little abacus was quite smooth.

Aunt Zhou saw that Lin Ruan understood what she meant, and she couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

Her daughter is a virtuous, sensible and very capable girl, and her appearance is also considered to be middle and upper, and now their Zhou family manages the slaughtering workshop for Lin Ruan, and San Lang is in the bookkeeping room in the store in Qingzhou City, plus Lian'er herself has so many rabbits, so the matchmakers who came to the door to say goodbye are about to level the threshold of their family these days.

But she rejected it all, and she already had the most suitable son-in-law candidate in her heart, that is, Lin Tiezhu.

Lin Tiezhu is seventeen this year, and he is a match for Zhou Lian'er. He worshipped Lin Ruan as a teacher, and learned so many things from him, and now he is checking around in several branches for Lin Ruan, not mentioning the income of several taels of silver per month, just saying that the future will not be bad. No matter who marries his daughter and marries him, the days after this will not be bad.

Another point is that everyone lives in the same village, and she knows the situation of Lin Tiezhu's family best. Tie Zhu Niang is soft-natured, and she has never said red-faced words to anyone in her life, but she is not the kind of wimp that allows others to rub and knead and flatten. Tie Zhu's father is also diligent, and the land at home is served very hard.

And they are tolerant enough to their daughter-in-law, as far as the daughter-in-law of the Tie Niu family is concerned, they haven't bothered with her, their own daughter-in-law knows the general, but she is a hundred heads stronger than the Tie Niu daughter-in-law, and when she arrives at the Lin family, it must not be the same as falling into a honey pot in that day?

The most uneasy thing for her is her little girl.

She herself has survived step by step from other people's daughters-in-law, knowing how important a good pair of in-laws is to her daughter-in-law, and how she is willing to let her be rubbed by others.

If she doesn't find someone who knows her roots, she is absolutely reluctant to marry her daughter. Even if there were several scholars in the family of those who came to kiss, she didn't nod.

She is a very pragmatic person, she never thought that her daughter could marry a scholar's son-in-law, and in the future, her son-in-law can be admitted to the imperial examination. I know my own conditions, if my daughter really marries such a son-in-law, she will be disliked in the future.

The scholar sung in the play, with the help of his wife, was promoted in the cold window for ten years, became an official, and immediately abandoned his bad wife when he turned around, just listening to her was angry, how could he be willing to let his daughter suffer that kind of grievance.

Therefore, Lin Tiezhu is the most satisfactory candidate for her at the moment, and the future will not be bad, but with Lin Ruan staring, he doesn't dare to give his daughter much grievance, and he lives in a village, and has the help of his mother's family in the future, and his life in his mother-in-law's family can't be better.

Lin Ruan thought about it for a while, and he could understand Aunt Zhou's hard work.

And she has a very good impression of Zhou Lian'er, gentle, virtuous and capable, and she looks smart, to be honest, if Lin Tiezhu didn't follow her, he might not be worthy of others.

Therefore, Lin Ruan decided to be a matchmaker.

So he smiled and said to Aunt Zhou: "Cheng, I must take this matter to heart, and keep it to make my aunt satisfied." ”

When Aunt Zhou got this, her eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile: "That aunt must give you a big red envelope." ”

As soon as Xiuxiu, a little money fan, heard this, Songzi'er couldn't take care of eating, and raised her head and hurriedly said, "Auntie, I also want a big red envelope." ”

Aunt Zhou was so happy that she held her good little face with both hands and rubbed it directly: "Okay, good, my aunt will also give you a big red envelope." ”

Xiuxiu was so satisfied, even if her little face was rubbed and deformed, she didn't say a word.

While chatting here, the people from the yamen arrived.

Lin Ruan was a girl's family after all, so he called the two aunts together and followed the servants to the wasteland.

It is said that it is to measure the land, but in fact, there is no need to measure it, this wasteland itself is a whole piece, and the government officials came over, but because Lin Ruan wanted to buy the land, Qin County Ling did not dare to slack off, so he deliberately let the officials go on this trip.

The officials were busy working on the ground with the rope of measuring the ground, while Lin Ruan and the others found a shade to stand and chat.

Tie Zhuniang was very puzzled and asked, "Ah Ruan, what are you doing with this wasteland?" ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "I want to buy some land to grow crops." ”

This time, Tie Zhuniang was puzzled, but Aunt Zhou couldn't help it, "Ah Ruan, although this land looks flat, it is really not a good land, there are many broken stones in it, not to mention that it is difficult to clean up, and this land is very barren, not to mention that it has not been three years and five years, I am afraid that it will not be able to grow crops." ”

Lin Ruan said with a smile: "It's okay, raise it slowly, you can always raise it." This land is so big, it's a pity that it's barren, if it can be raised, it will be a big bargain in the future. Even if it is not well maintained, it can also come in handy for other purposes. ”

Aunt Zhou knew that she was a person with big ideas, and when she heard her say this, she didn't say anything more.

She is just a woman in the countryside, and her ideas and knowledge are comparable to Ah Ruan.

One hundred acres of wasteland is not small, and it took several officials a long time to measure the land.

Lin Ruan gave each of them a tael of silver to make tea, and then stopped caring about them.

A few officials were very surprised, before coming, the chief secretary kept explaining that this Lin girl was not easy to serve, and she couldn't be offended, so many people in the yamen were reluctant to come, and pushed the errand to a few of them weak.

They were all ready to be made difficult, but when they came, they didn't say anything, and they gave so much silver, although it was not too much, but it was definitely a lot. I went back and told those people, but I was afraid that those people would regret their death.

After the officials left, Lin Ruan left Xiuxiu and Liu Ya in the village and went up the mountain alone.

Zhong Bo and the others were busy in the valley, and when they saw Lin Ruan coming, they happily greeted him.

Because he was going to Qingzhou City to clean up Yao Sangongzi, Lin Ruan had to let Zhong Bo and them go up the mountain again. However, she didn't dare to let everyone come up, only let Zhong Bo and another dumb slave named Li Shun go up the mountain.

Before this, Lin Ruan Yan and the others had talked about the dangers they might encounter after going up the mountain, but everyone did not flinch, and even strongly asked them to go.

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Ruan decided to let Zhong Bo and Li Shun come up, only responsible for picking, and then quickly descended the mountain.

Even so, Lin Ruan was not at ease.

If the time bomb behind the mountain is not removed, she will be furious in her own heart. I don't know when Xiao Ye and they will be able to solve this matter.
