Rich built a new house, now there is a place to marry a daughter-in-law, he confidently went to the matchmaker.

said that she was a matchmaker, and she didn't specialize in this profession, but she preferred to do the work of protecting the media and pulling fiber, and after a long time, the village also recognized her.

Lao Shi's family has two houses in succession, which are quite conspicuous in the village, Cheng Liyun naturally heard about it, and when Ruifu came to the door today, she knew what Ruifu was here for.

Cheng Liyun: "Oh, Ruifu is here, and my aunt heard that your new house has been built." ”

"Aunt Cheng." Ruifu was proud in his heart, "It's covered, I'm not going to trouble my aunt again, if you meet the right girl, you want to tell me about it." ”

Cheng Liyun responded happily: "Eh, as long as you plant the sycamore tree, we are not afraid that we will not be able to attract the golden phoenix, you can rest assured, as long as your aunt knows who has a suitable big girl, she will introduce it to you as soon as possible." ”

Listening to the tone of the matchmaker, it was completely different from the original, Rui Fuxi said: "Then I will thank my aunt first, if it is done, I will definitely not treat my aunt badly." ”

Being a matchmaker is not done in vain, every time you say that you are a couple, there is a thank you gift, Cheng Liyun is not polite to Ruifu, and smiled directly: "Yo, that aunt is waiting." ”

Ruifu achieved his goal and said goodbye to Cheng Liyun, "That's okay, auntie, you are busy first, I have to take a step in advance." ”

After Ruifu finished speaking, he turned around to leave, but he didn't expect Cheng Liyun to stop him again, "Ruifu, I remember that your second brother once told me that your fourth brother wants to talk about a daughter-in-law in his hometown, Ruicheng has told me about this for a long time, and there has been no suitable one, a few days ago I went back to my parents' house, I heard that there is a widow, but it is the same age as your fourth child, I don't know if the fourth brother has found it, if not, no, I can't ask Ruimin to come back and let the two meet." ”

"Where's the right place? When I came back late last year and said that this was happening, I went back to write to him, and if he wanted to, I asked him to come back as soon as possible. Rich was curious, and he hurriedly asked, "What kind of widow?" Are you handsome or not? ”

After being a bachelor for a long time, hearing that the woman's eyes were shining, Cheng Liyun asked with a teasing smile, "What, Ruifu, aren't you looking for a big girl, and the little widow doesn't mind?" ”

Ruifu was thick-skinned, "Auntie, I'll hear about the little widow first, and if it's suitable, I'll see you first." ”

"That's okay, Auntie will tell you first." Cheng Liyun thought for a moment and said: "People are Chinese New Year's Eve today, but they are compatible with your brothers in terms of age, the man died of illness, leaving three children, the eldest son is ten years old, the second son is seven years old, and the youngest is a girl, who is five years old this year." ”

As soon as Ruifu heard that the little widow had three children, he immediately denied the family in his heart, it was okay to find a widow, but it was not okay to raise children for someone else's family, not to mention that there were three in one raiser, Ruifu interrupted Cheng Liyun's words, "Auntie, I understand, I will be gone, I will write to the fourth child when I go back." ”

This is disgusting, Cheng Liyun smiled, "In that, you come and talk to me when you receive the letter, and I will arrange the time." ”

It is said that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Ruifu hummed a little song all the way, found a piece of waste paper when he got home, wrote down the general situation from Cheng Liyun on the paper, and sent it out when he passed by the post and telecommunications office when he entered the city.

Ruimin received the letter, saw that it was sent by his hometown, and thought that his hometown was here to ask for money, he threw the letter aside and didn't bother to open it, until he got off work at night, he lay on the bed, idle left and right, and then took the letter in his hand, and slowly tore a crack, which was not tight, and immediately jumped up with excitement, regretting why he didn't look at it during the day, if he did, he would have already taken the train back to his hometown.

Ruimin didn't take the other party's three children to heart at all, and his focus was that the other party was a woman of his age, and it was good if he was a woman, and nothing else mattered.

Ruimin was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night, he got up at dawn, and finally waited for the leader to go to work, he hurriedly went to ask for leave, bought a ticket and rushed back.

When he got on the train, Ruimin's heart gradually calmed down, at this time he thought about it more, the other party has three children, which is really a bit much, the salary I earn is not high, and it is difficult to support a family of five, besides, the money I earn is spent on other people's children, and when I have children, my children must not be wronged.

Ruimin shook his head, that's not good, I have to talk to the matchmaker, it's okay to take the child, at most I can only bring one.

Ruifu sent the letter, originally thought that Ruimin would write him a reply first, but he didn't expect the person to come back so soon, he came home after a day's work, Ruimin was already squatting in the yard with a bowl and drinking soup.

Ruicheng's family moved away, and the rations of the Ruifu brothers were not taken away, and Ruicheng also said that the child is small and busy in the field, so he will not touch the spoon in a pot in the future, everyone eats their own.

The current situation is that their family is divided into three stoves, one each for Ruicheng and Ruifu, Ruisheng and Ruiquan because they still live in the same courtyard, and the two use a stove.

Ruiquan cooking is also trouble-free, drink soup in the morning, drink soup at night, stew a big pot dish at noon, although it is not good to eat, but can be full, it is really greedy, just go to Ruicheng's house at the meal, and eat a good meal by the way.

Today, Rui Quan, as usual, burned a pot of sticks and batter for dinner, and as soon as he put it in the bowl, he heard a knock at the door.

"Fifth brother, you came back in time." Rui Quan looked up casually, and was surprised to find that it was not the fifth brother who entered the door, but the fourth brother.

At first, Rui Quan thought that he had seen it wrong, but when he looked at it, he was sure that it was Rui Min who entered the door, Rui Quan was surprised, and hurriedly threw the spoon back into the pot to welcome Rui Min, "Fourth brother, why are you back?" ”

"It's a bit of a problem to come back." Ruimin put the canvas duffel bag on the square table, looked up and looked around the yard, only to see Ruiquan and no one else, he asked, "What about our third brother?" ”

It was dusk now, and there was only a trace of afterglow left on the horizon, and Ruimin's eyes were not good, so he didn't notice the changes in the courtyard at all.

"The third brother hasn't come back yet." I haven't seen the fourth brother for a long time, Ruiquan is very close to Ruimin, he came over and asked, "Fourth brother, what are you doing when you come back?" ”

"Nothing." Before the eight characters were skimmed, Ruimin was embarrassed to say, he walked to the side of the pot and looked into the pot, "What kind of soup is boiling?" ”

Ruiquan: "Stick noodles." ”

Ruimin went home in previous years, at least at this time he could see He Xiaoxia busy working by the stove, today since he entered the hospital, there has always been only Ruiquan, he asked puzzledly: "What about the second brother and sister-in-law, why is the house so quiet today?" ”

Rui Quan put another bowl on the table, picked up the spoon and served a bowl of soup to Rui Min, "The second brother and the third brother have built a house and moved out, and now the old mansion is here for me and the fifth brother to live in." ”

"Did they build a house? Where did the house go? Ruimin's eyes widened, and he searched around the yard, only to find that the original kitchen was gone, and there was an extra wall.

Ruiquan explained: "The third brother can build a house over there, and the second brother's house can be built farther away, on the vacant land west of the house. ”

The land in the west of the house Ruimin knew that the area was not large, but the alkali was very large, it was a third-level land divided into the village, and he did not harvest anything, and later Shi Youtian saw that the harvest was indeed not enough seed money, so he did not waste his efforts in that field, and the land was idle, and later Shi Youtian found the village committee to apply for the land to become a homestead.

Ruimin muttered in his heart: Isn't this the money to build a house, why bother me with money? Thankfully, I didn't send it to you.

Yang Xinxiu was young and lightly widowed, after the death of her head of the family, her mother-in-law divided the family, looking at their orphans and widows for the sake of being really pitiful, when they separated the family, the in-laws did a fair job, and the two better halls and a side room in the family were assigned to them this room.

At first, Yang Xinxiu thought that under the care of her in-laws' relatives, she could grow up her three children, but the reality was a slap in the face, her in-laws and two eldest brothers took care of their own families, and none of them helped her, especially in three summers and three autumns, and her family was too busy to do her work, who had time to help her?

When Yang Xinxiu's man left, the children were all small, the eldest son was only eight years old, not to mention the two little ones, nothing could help, the land of the five people depended on her one woman to cultivate, she was really tired, she looked at the pesticide behind the door and wanted to pour it down to a hundred, once, she even grabbed the pesticide bottle in the palm of her hand, if it wasn't for the little daughter who shouted mother, it is estimated that the weeds on her grave grew almost as tall as the master.

Later, the roof began to leak, the house was so high, she couldn't climb up as a woman, she just climbed up, she didn't know how to repair, just after a heavy rain, the original leaky place finally became a big hole, this is good, it rains and leaks, the sky is clear and dewy, and when you meet a good moon, you don't even need to light the lamp.

Yang Xinxiu pondered that the roof could not be repaired, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the cold in winter, she went to her in-laws first, but she didn't expect that she had just finished saying her intentions, and the in-laws were more difficult than her, but it sounded really reasonable, her mother-in-law said this: "The third family, what's the use of you coming to us for such a thing as repairing the roof, you see me and your father, old arms and legs, who can climb to the roof or what?" ”

The old lady's words made Yang Xinxiu speechless, but what the old man said did make sense, someone asked, you can find someone by yourself, don't you just spend two dollars, do you want to find someone else. In fact, people in this era have not yet spent money to hire people to do work, and work like repairing a house is done by relatives and friends.

The in-laws were unable to help, so Yang Xinxiu went to find the two eldest brothers, but she didn't expect the two eldest brothers to refuse her in one go.
