Erlang spread his hands: "It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, she is your sister, not your daughter." You can't stop it. "You can't stop a man from dying.

Lan Niang sighed and said with a sad face: "I really don't know if it's right or wrong to send Gui Niang to learn embroidery." ”

"Of course that's right. You see, although Uncle Banzi's daughter-in-law is lazy if she doesn't do housework, the housekeeper really doesn't have to say that Uncle Banzi can stand up, and her daughter-in-law has contributed a lot. It's not bad to have a stone daughter-in-law, and it's mostly for the sake of her small family, otherwise the character of the stone who doesn't know anything about the wind can't live in the village. Erlang glanced at Lan Niang.

Lan Niang was sullen. What this means is that Gui Niang herself is crooked.

In the end, Gui Niang really chose Tongsheng.

Lan Niang persuaded bitterly: "What is the situation in our family, people must have understood it before they came to ask for marriage." You have to think about it yourself. ”

Gui Niang nodded.

Lan Niang said again: "I am a married girl, my father is a good man, I don't have a little family background, and people still come to ask for marriage, most of them just because you have no power and power and can make money by embroidering." Studying costs a lot, and most of them require you to fill in the money you earn. There is no turning back when you get married, only the taste of bitter water. Think about our previous hard days, how good your life is now, there is no need to let yourself suffer anymore. ”

Gui Niang insisted: "I know everything. "It's been out for so long, and these can still be seen.

Lan Niang looked at Gui Niang in shock, she really didn't understand what Gui Niang thought.

Gui Niang explained: "It is precisely because of the hard life that I chose Li Tongsheng. He wants to study with my embroidery money, and I can hold him and his mother. But if they want to use my money, their mother and son will be shorter. If he's unlucky, he won't be able to get out in his life, and I can hold it down. If he is lucky, he will be Mrs. Xiucai, and I will study with the money from my embroidery, and I will not do ungrateful things for the sake of fame. My sister is good to me, I know it. ”

Lan Niang smacked her tongue and said, "You have really grown up." "I can't control it. Sure enough, it was Erlang who said that he couldn't stop the ghost who died.

"Life is not as imagined, you just know it yourself. If you get married in the future and have something, you can help me. Lan Niang took Gui Niang's hand and said.

Gui Niang nodded and said, "Only my sister is the best for me in this world." Thank you sister! "Without Lan Niang and Erlang, she Xin Guiniang is still in the abyss.

In view of Gui Niang's young age, she will not be given the tax of retaining female silver until she is eighteen years old and has not yet married, and the Li family child is not very old, and she can wait for a few years if she is only sixteen years old. Lan Niang is in charge and stays at home for two more years. The Li family also agreed to come down, if they took the test for Xiucai, Li Tongsheng had not yet arrived, and it was okay to go back in a few years.

The cost of the exam is not low, and it costs five taels of silver just to ask Xiucai to do the joint insurance. There are also problems such as accommodation and food, and I can't get down if I don't have ten taels of silver to take a test. The Li family waited for Gui Niang to marry in and make up for the exam fee.

The widowed mother and her son have spent all of the Li family's savings. Only two acres of land were sold, and it was okay to support yourself. Li Tong did copying every day of his life to earn some pen and ink money. Barely get by.

Li Tongsheng has no fame but is an only son, otherwise the conscription would have conscripted him away.

Gui Niang settled on her mother-in-law's family, and she probably understood the situation of the Li family, and from time to time she had to subsidize a little and send some meat to make up for the mother and son. I got the gratitude of the two mothers and sons, as well as the praise of the people around me.
