Five days later, Qiulan left Shu Wu's house. Shu Wuniang released the news of Qiulan's redemption, and gave me and A Chu three taels of silver as a thank you gift to help settle the matter, and then set out to go to the slave art center to re-select the girl.

The rumors on Li Shen's body gradually subsided with the news of Qiulan's redemption, and he could finally prepare to marry his daughter-in-law with peace of mind. Because of the friendship of "investigating the case", Li Shen originally wanted to send me and Achu a wedding post, but when we thought of the previous "intercourse", we didn't want to eat this wedding wine.

I said to Li Shen: "Our village is the tenant village of the Meng family, and we were going to say hello to the Meng family, and Ah Chu and I have no money to pay for this congratulatory gift of drinking wine." However, I heard that Shopkeeper Li will go to the Meng Mansion to hire him in the next few days, so he can give the old lady of the Meng family a promise, saying that you will only marry the Miss Meng family, and there will be no other women, so that the elders of the Meng Mansion can also feel at ease. ”

Li Shen agreed: "This is indeed what I thought in my heart, and the previous incident with Miss Qiulan also made me sigh......"

Achu interrupted him: "Shopkeeper Li, don't mention this matter again." ”

About a few days after Li Shen came to the door to get hired, Chen Wushi's family suddenly invited me to eat at home. Martial Master Chen at the dinner table looked happy:

"I heard that the new aunt of the Meng family promised the Meng family master that there would be no other woman in this life except Miss Meng...... This new aunt is still a lover! ”

Mrs. Chen was a little disdainful: "What I said, a woman can't marry two men at the same time, so does a man have to marry several women in one go?" But looking at it this way, Bing Ran and Ah Chu don't think they will be picked by Mrs. Meng. There was a joy that could not be concealed in his tone.

I smiled and said, "We are village girls who farm and fish, and probably the eldest lady of the Meng family doesn't look down on people like us." ”

Mrs. Chen took a sip: "Who wants her to take a fancy to such a thing as a roommate?" It is good to choose a caring man as a husband, but although our place is not old-fashioned, and people of our status do not have so many sour rules, it is better not to throw away all the secular etiquette. ”

I know that Mrs. Chen is referring to our contact with Shu Wuniang and others, and the Chen family has been enlightened enough in ancient times, and Mrs. Chen's every word means to protect her. Achu also understood, and hugged Mrs. Chen's arm and coquettishly said: "Mother, the child and Bingran have a number in their hearts, and they will never do anything out of the ordinary." ”

Mrs. Chen smiled: "You kid, I can't control you." ”

Half a month later, the fourth lady of Meng Mansion officially came out of the cabinet and married Li Shen, the young owner of the Li family. Ah Chu and I were called to "make noodles" with a group of non-strong villagers, and took back a small 100 copper coins, peanuts, sugar cubes and other bits and pieces.

The gossip of large families always spreads quickly, it is rumored that before Miss Meng got married, her sister-in-law was looking for a female master to teach skills for her eldest daughter, and her aunt Li Shen knew about it, and when she returned to the door with his wife, he introduced a relative of his cousin with good skills and knowledge, and the old lady of the Meng family was very satisfied with it, and he also loved Li Shen, the new aunt, a little more.

"But, I heard that the eldest son of the Meng family has some whispers, saying that they dislike this master as a young widow, but the old man and the old lady don't care about this, what can they say?" Sister Cai from the village was the first to share first-hand information when chatting with us.

"The good things of the horizontal and vertical teaching are done, why do you care so much about other people's backgrounds." Achu thought so.

"Yes, I heard that this Xu Nufu is not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also poetry and books." Sister Cai saw that someone was cheering, and she became more and more energetic, "But I heard that the second son of the Meng family has been seriously ill since his sister-in-law got married, and he is still raising him in bed." Bingran, you ran to the pharmacy in the town twice in three days, and you didn't know about it? ”

"Why don't you know, it's probably because the marriage of a big family is cumbersome, and I'm tired of helping." I replied with a smile, but I vaguely remembered in my heart that the name on the deed of sale that Shu Wuniang took out at the beginning seemed to be the three words "Xu Qiulan".
