Chapter 63: The History of the Struggle of the Peasants 9
The days passed smoothly like this.
In addition to doing some light housework every day, Xi Jiang went to the mountains with Wang and Tian Tang to find all kinds of wild vegetables. Occasionally, you will come across some mushrooms and fruits. The Wang family will screen out some good products and sell them in the city.
For the rest, keep it for yourself.
This made Xi Jiang very happy.
Maybe it's because the practice of martial arts is very good, and there is hope for life. The Wang family has been very generous recently, and now Xi Jiang can eat seven points full every day. It's not when I first came, I had gruel twice a day, my stomach was full of water, and there was no dry food.
In half a month, the sweet potato vines in the yard also grew. A few days ago, Xi Jiang took a cut of the sweet potato vine every three nodes and re-cuttings.
Anyway, the sweet potatoes don't pick the environment, so Xi Jiang will put the sweet potato vines, as much as possible, in the place near the yard where the soil is still quite loose.
The corn seedlings have also sprouted, and looking at the well-grown corn seedlings, Xi Jiang is full of a sense of achievement.
Xi Jiang didn't come up with anything ahead of his time, for fear of affecting the development of the world. Xiaobai collected a lot of information in the last world, but Xi Jiang didn't dare to take it out.
Once these things are successful, they will attract countless predators. A farmer without any background will be eaten to the bone. The most important thing is that the Tian family also has a book of heaven in the eyes of the world.
If this is exposed, you don't have to think about it, I'm afraid that life will be sad.
In this feudal era where the idea of royal power and aristocracy is rampant, a small farmer, no one cares, the magnates take a fancy to your things, take them, and grab them.
Do you still have the ability to resist? To oppose the aristocracy is to oppose the whole world.
The Tian family has to develop slowly, and you can't become a fat man by eating one bite.
In the future, if the Tian family really wants to go up, Xi Jiang will push it behind, but she will not take the initiative to push the Tian family up.
In such an era, what is the spell? It's the father, it's the family, it's the heritage.
Xi Jiang watered the seedlings, returned to the yard, and saw Tian Tang looking out of the courtyard in a daze, looking at it.
It's been half a month, why hasn't Cheng Yu come to propose marriage yet? Don't you want to marry Tian Tang?
It shouldn't be! He's the one who can die for Tian Tang.
Xi Jiang walked to his side and comforted: "Sister, don't worry. Cheng Yu will definitely come. ”
Tian Tang's little face was slightly red, and he smiled silently, with some frustration in his eyes. In fact, she herself is not sure whether Cheng Yu likes her or not.
Xi Jiang was in the yard and rested for a while.
Outside the courtyard, a woman dressed in bright cotton clothes walked over with a smile on her face.
"Tian girl, is the adult in the family here?" As she spoke, the woman's eyes fell on Tian Tang, and she glanced at Xi Jiang, who was not afraid of life and was bold.
The two girls of the Tian family are really good, and they look good.
Tian Tang was looked at and lowered his head shyly. She knew that this was the famous matchmaker Zhang in ten miles and eight towns.
Mrs. Zhang's reputation is very good, and she is also kind, and she basically will not hide the family background of both parties, but the fees are a little more expensive. The wealthier families are willing to find Mrs. Zhang.
Xi Jiang also has memories of Mrs. Zhang, but not as detailed as Tian Tang.
"Auntie, my grandmother is at home." Xi Jiang replied.
At this time, the Wang family also came out of the house, and she knew what was going on as soon as she saw Mrs. Zhang. welcomed the person into the house, and asked Xi Jiang to go to the field to call her father and mother back.
When Mrs. Zhang saw the Wang family for the first time, she sighed in her heart, this Wang's complexion is really good. It seems that Li's daughter-in-law serves her mother-in-law well!
The two politely exchanged words for a while, and finally got to the point.
"Aunt Wang, I see that your big girl is really good. I heard that no one is allowed yet? Mrs. Zhang said tentatively.
"Yes! You have to pick one that is pleasing to the eye and heart-warming. "These are Wang's sincere words.
She is a woman herself and knows that it is not easy to be a woman. Therefore, whether it is the Li family or the two little granddaughters, the Wang family has never been harsh. What about others? She couldn't take care of it, but her granddaughter and daughter-in-law hurt themselves.
She has no daughters, and after the Li family got married, the Wang family did not set rules like other mothers-in-law, and treated the Li family wholeheartedly and sincerely. And the Li family felt Wang's sincerity, and naturally became better and better to the Wang family. Sometimes, he is more meticulous and caring than Wang's two sons.
"I've got a guy here who is very good, self-motivated, and very capable. The child is an orphan, and he is the only one left in the family. Mrs. Zhang followed Wang's answer, and seeing that Wang's expression had not changed, she continued: "Although this child is an orphan, he has a good character and appearance. In the future, when your eldest girl marries, you don't have to serve your in-laws. The little couple lived their own lives directly. ”
When Wang heard Mrs. Zhang's words, he was a little more satisfied with Cheng Yu in his heart. It seems that Cheng Yu did not tell Mrs. Zhang about the communication between the two families in advance. This kid is careful and knows Gu Quan's reputation.
"Matchmaker Zhang, why does this kid you are talking about sound so familiar?" Wang said quietly.
"This kid, you also know, is Cheng Yu from your village. Early yesterday morning, the boy of the Cheng family came to me, and he was so angry that he had to come and help him on this trip. Mrs. Wang took out a silver hairpin again, "This kid has made a lot of money, and this silver hairpin is a token of kinship." ”
Looking at this silver hairpin, Wang's heart blossomed.
Cheng Yu, this kid, is so poor that he is willing to take such a delicate silver hairpin as a token. It seems that I really like the girl in my heart, and I spent a lot of money to invite a well-known and thoughtful matchmaker Zhang.
When Mrs. Zhang saw Wang's expression, she knew that there was a drama in this family affair. I am also happy for Cheng Yu in my heart, although the Tian family is poor, but the character is good, and there are not so many bad things in the family.
There are few men in the Tian family, and there are many single sons-in-law, and it is also good to have one more son in the future.
At this time, Tian Fengming and the others also came back.
In the past half a month, although Tian Fengming is still dressed in coarse cloth clothes as before, he has actually gradually begun to change. Because of the increase in strength brought about by the practice of martial arts, he has become more and more confident. No matter what you talk or do, you have begun to have a kind of thing called momentum.
Tian Qingming is the same, but compared with his brother's introvertedness, the younger Tian Qingming is more outgoing and flamboyant.
Familiar people can't feel it, but Mrs. Zhang, who is good at observing words and feelings, still feels different.
Obediently, this Tian family brother is really imposing, and his body is also strong, and he is a good hand at work. Why didn't I find out before, the Tian family brothers are such two characters.
looked at Tian Qingming's young and hearty and energetic appearance. suddenly remembered that the second child of the Tian family didn't seem to have said kiss yet.
Mrs. Zhang silently included Tian Qingming in her list of excellent marriages.
