Chapter 68: Family Affairs
Besides, Chungui brought a full bowl of beef stuffed dumplings and put them on the dining table of Lizheng's family, and the dumplings wrapped in thick fillings only looked at it and knew that it was the capital, and Li Zheng was happy that this girl was real, and couldn't help but say a few more words: "Living at home, I have to save some money well, I can't eat with your aunt?" ”
Chungui only begged for mercy: "Uncle Lizheng, don't discipline me, I'll provoke my aunt to scold me again after a while." Of course, I don't bring chicken, duck and fish meat to you to try, but our aunt's own noodles, this beef is freshly slaughtered, you have to eat a few bites to be happy! ”
This beef is indeed not as good as chicken, duck and fish, and the slaughter is allowed by the government, and it has to be an old cow, and it is not easy to eat a bite.
Lizheng's daughter-in-law feigned anger and said: "Just your sweet mouth, it's done, several children in the family are here, hurry back and have a reunion dinner." It's okay to go to the county school, there are three days to spare, and when the time comes, I will go to Kyoto to catch the exam, and it will be uncomfortable to see no one for half a year. ”
Hearing her say this, Chun Gui also smiled, isn't it, Zhixing Qiyou has only been gone for so a month, and her heart is a little empty, and she can't think of it on weekdays, but when she sees these two people today, her nose, eyes and throat are sour.
Li Zheng saw that her expression was a little depressed, and he hurriedly reprimanded his daughter-in-law: "You too, what do you do when you are happy?" ”
Lizheng's daughter-in-law hurriedly changed the plate and sent the person to the door: "Okay, okay, I won't talk much." ”
Only then did he return in the spring, don't walk quickly towards his house.
Seeing that she was far away, Li Zhengcai knocked on a cigarette gun, picked up chopsticks and ate a dumpling with a thin skin and big filling.
"Chungui's craftsmanship is good, you can send half a bowl to our father."
Li Zheng's family is really divided into households, a large family has its own life, but they live under the same roof, his father sits in the main hall on weekdays, and occasionally goes to the two sons' houses to have a meal. During the New Year's holidays or difficult times like last year's drought, they all live together in a group.
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law glanced at him, and said while dividing the dumplings: "Can the craftsmanship of spring return be bad?" ”
"Don't say it, the children from that family are all amazing, didn't Zhimin come over to learn sewing with me recently, it's only been less than five days, ordinary sewing work can embroider a flower, look at the dexterity, the threshold of courting in the future will be broken."
She looked at her old husband's expression, and pondered and said something on her mind: "I had a thought a while ago. ”
Li Zheng glanced at her: "You said yes." ”
Lizheng's daughter-in-law took advantage of the situation to put down the chopsticks and sat down in front of him: "I think so, Uncle Li's family Zhiyuan has been with several children on the other side of the spring return since years ago, looking at the age, he and Zhimin are also inseparable, if the two get married, what do you think?" ”
That Daddy Li is the uncle of Lizheng's daughter-in-law, Zhiyuan is her junior who is her top relative, and the lady she will marry when she is older in the future is the little girl she loves, and she is so beautiful when she thinks about it!
Li Zheng didn't understand what she meant, and only took chopsticks and nodded at the corner of the table: "Zhiyuan and Min Min are the same age." ”
"The female junior holds the gold bricks, what if she is older, now she is ambitious, her body is getting stronger and stronger, Qi Xiucai in the private school often praises her knowledge, and Min Min is so dexterous, look at the charter of the spring return, there will be a creation in the future, and the two children will grow up together, which is better."
Li Zheng saw that her face was full of seriousness, so he stopped his chopsticks: "It still depends on the meaning of the children, don't mess with the mandarin duck score now, this idea will hold back for a few more years, and it's not too late for them to be older." ”
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law only has this thought, and she is a person who knows how to measure herself, how can she not understand what he means: "I know, it's just that the more I look at Minmin's child in the past few days, the more I like it, and this girl who returns to Chungui is really good at teaching children, and she has raised her one by one and even more." ”
After she finished speaking, she stopped talking, and after distributing the dumplings to her father-in-law, the old couple also ate quietly.
He stopped his chopsticks halfway through eating, was silent for a long time, picked up the dry cigarette on the table and smoked it, and said softly: "If you are free, it is better to Zhang Luo Zhang Luo Chungui's relatives." ”
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law immediately raised her eyes, her eyes were full of puzzlement: "Didn't you say before that the marriage of Chungui is controlled by the Liu family, and I can't hold the red line?" ”
Chungui's identity is a little embarrassing, saying that she is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, but she has not married the boss of the Liu family, if not, all the small members of the Liu family have called their sisters-in-law. She privately regards Chungui as the daughter of the Liu family, but she is afraid that outsiders will not think so.
To put it bluntly, it's a mess.
"Don't you say it's a coincidence, if it was decided early that day, the identity of Spring Return doesn't have to be so unclear."
But if he really married Liu Zhili early, he would be a real widow at this time.
She put down her chopsticks and lost the idea of eating.
Seeing her like this, Li Zheng said in a low voice: "That was before, Chun Gui had no one to rely on, and now Zhixing is already a showman, and Chun Gui is another handicraft, although the matter of grabbing the land has not torn his face on his face, but the patriarch uncle has long had no face to interfere in the internal affairs of Zhixing." ”
"I'm only worried about the dim sum stall when I return in the spring in the future, and the relatives of the Liu family will have to go over to get married one step ahead of you, not afraid of Hades, but afraid of difficult ghosts."
As soon as he said this, Li Zheng's daughter-in-law almost didn't laugh out loud: "You are comparing the Liu family to the little ghost of Hades!" ”
Li Zheng snorted coldly: "Why aren't you a little ghost?" How many moths have come out of that family. ”
"Besides, there have indeed been precedents in our family, and several widowed children have been taken away to marry people from the clan. Chungui is harmonious in front of you and me, but her temperament is extremely tough, and she can't rub sand in her eyes, and it's best not to mention her about blind marriage and dumb marriage, otherwise it will be difficult to guarantee that it will be another disaster. ”
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law finally heard the doorway, saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, but she was still afraid that those people in the Liu family clan would hide their hearts.
"But if Chungui gets married, what will happen to those children below?"
Lizheng's daughter-in-law is a woman in the end, so she thinks carefully. According to the spring return to Na Zhiping, a few eyes hurt like beads, even if you get married, you are afraid that you will have to take your children, where can a family live with two surnames.
Li Zheng put down the dry tobacco, picked up the chopsticks, glanced outside, and sighed: "I'm also worried about this, where is the spring return willing to leave these children, so this family matter needs you to think more, and then discuss it together, this year's spring return is eighteen, and it's always bad to delay it when you're older." ”
"When you go to explore the spring return, I will also go to the village chief to have a breath, and I can't delay the girl's house."
After hearing this, Lizheng's daughter-in-law seemed to be pressing a mountain in her heart, so it seems that the family affairs of the spring return are easy things.
I want to agree to return to the spring, and I want to settle the children of the Liu family. Moreover, Zhixing, Zhiping, and Zhimin are all easy to do, but there is a Qi You in the house who can't get along with the surname Liu.
After Li Zheng said his heart, An Ansheng ate his meal, but Li Zheng's daughter-in-law had no appetite and glared at him angrily.
-
Because Zhou Han came with Shi Fuzi alone, he went back with Shi Fuzi and stared at the two of them, seeing that he really liked this place, he left people behind after discussing with Zhixing Qiyou, and simply had a three-day vacation, and it was good to have a good time in another place. In her selfish heart, she also wanted to know how to go with Qi You and him.
This month's fan picture was specially reserved for Zhixing Qiyou to inscribe a poem, and Zhou Han was busy listening to it and wanted to watch. A month ago, he couldn't have imagined that the fan in the hands of every student in Kyoto was actually from the hand of a girl in this small mountain village.
It wasn't until he really saw that fan that he sighed to himself, he had to follow his master to this place, and ate a lot of food that he had never seen before, not to mention, he also met this woman with good craftsmanship, and made close friends, and came and went.
Thinking of this, he was a little excited and tentatively said: "Sister Chun, can you divide me into a fan and let me write a poem?" ”
Afraid that she would not agree, Zhou Han promised: "I wrote it for Qi You to read, if it's not good, forget it!" ”
In the final analysis, he is still a young man, and he still has a youthful temperament in his bones. He knows how popular this fan is in Kyoto, on the one hand, the Guo family will do business, but in the end, it is the fun of returning to this fan in spring, if the poems he writes can be shown on this fan, a little brilliant can make those students in Kyoto praise a little!
How could Chun Gui not know what he meant, seeing the hope in his eyes, she smiled and said: "What's the matter, it's just a poem, I still don't believe in your talent." ”
Chungui agreed not to say anything, and praised Zhou Han, which made Zhou Han happy.
Sending away Zhiping and the others who were going to private school in the afternoon, Zhimin was holding a brand-new fabric in the room to figure out the pattern. Qi You and the three of them got together to compose poems, and after returning to the spring, they fried taro cakes, boiled goat's milk, and retired by themselves after sending them over. The whole afternoon went by.
In the spring, the weather and rain alternate, the goods in the field grow fast, Father Li and the Chen brothers have sown seeds, the taro and sweet potatoes prepared by the spring return have been agreed by the two families, and two stubbles have been planted on the edge of the field, and now the seedlings have grown, and the fields in their yards are planted earlier, and the sweet potatoes can be eaten in a few days, and the sweet potato balls and sweet potato sugar water will be almost able to enter the stall next month.
Now there are some silver coins on hand, she is a little dissatisfied with the dishes with sugar water desserts, the porcelain style here is single, Guo Ruyi sent the white porcelain bottle earlier is good-looking, and she has experienced a modern colorful hand-painted porcelain era, looking at the white porcelain bowl is a little unsatisfactory.
If she can work the dishes with sugar water, she is afraid that the price of food in her stall can be raised again. She has a lot of thoughts in her heart, but it is a little difficult to rely on her alone, Guo Ruyi has a lot of ways, but that stall has nothing to do with her, and she is not good at bothering others, so the porcelain bowl is not mentioned first.
One night passed, the sky was about to dawn, Chungui quietly touched up, Zhixing three stayed in the county school for a whole month, I am afraid that she has not had a good rest, so she did not think about waking up the three of them early in the morning, only went into the study by herself and took out a few fans with poems, thinking about bringing them together.
But just as she rolled the fan out, Qi You happened to come out of the room, looking at the appearance that she had already finished grooming, and saw that she held the fan in her hand and took it easily.
It was still a little cold in the spring morning, and the coat of the spring return happened to be placed outside, Qi You lowered his eyes and looked at her thin clothes, and then frowned: "It's cold outside, go put on some clothes." ”
Early in the morning, his voice was still slightly hoarse, and Chungui suddenly felt a little strange when he heard it, and only then did he react and said, "Why did you get up so early?" ”
Qi You had already swept around, saw the coat hanging on the back of the stool, walked a few steps and picked it up, and then handed it to Chungui: "Put it on first, I'll go to the town with you." ”
Chungui took it and dressed it in a daze, and after listening to the second half of the sentence, he hurriedly shook his head: "You can do it at home, it's easy to rest for a few days." ”
Qi You had already familiarized himself with the wooden bucket of goat's milk in the kitchen, and took out more than a dozen warm double-skin milk from the stove. Chungui couldn't stop it, so he could only watch from the sidelines.
This month has passed, Qi You's speed of rising is faster than Zhixing's, although he is thinner, he can see that his muscles and bones are strong, and his appearance is also handsome, with sharp edges and corners. Chun Gui looked at it quietly, this person was already a decent adult, she couldn't help but feel funny, she never thought that in just half a year, she would raise a child.
Seeing her standing stupidly, Qi Youcai hooked the corners of his lips, raised his hand and patted the back of her head: "Let's go." ”
Chun Gui didn't have any preparations, and after being patted a spirit, all his thoughts were swept away, and he couldn't help but feel a strange smell in his heart, and he looked at the tall back in front of him and shook his head secretly.
The chaos of the early morning did not make her feel anything unusual about this shot compared to the contact between the two on weekdays.
And Qi You's ears in front of him were also slightly red, his expression was slightly distressed, rubbing the fingertips of that hand, thinking carefully about this thought in his heart.
