Chapter 20: The Matchmaker?
In the cave, you can't pan the kind of kang in the village, you can only use a stone slab to build, a few squares below, put a charcoal basin, the charcoal basin bakes the stone slab, the effect is similar to the fire kang, and it can also make the cave warmer, and it is very good to use both charcoal
If she comes early, she can get home before noon as long as she misses the time
This time she went back, walked through the crop field, went around to the back of Zhu Zhuangzheng's house, found a hidden position, leaned against the wall, and looked inside
The men of the Zhu family are still playing mud bricks, there are already a lot of dry mud bricks in the open space, I don't see the third sister, the fourth sister and the fifth sister, the second girl is in the courtyard, walking around for a while, the women in the second room of the big house don't see the figure, at the door of the main room, Zhang is sitting on a bench basking in the sun
Her eyes softened as she looked at the women at work, and when she turned her eyes to look at her son and the man
Zhang didn't scold, he didn't hold a stick in his hand, it seems that this family is safe and sound, what about Liu? Where did the cheap mom go?
Just thinking about it, Liu carried a load of water, staggered into the courtyard gate, picked up the water tank, and poured the water in the bucket into it with difficulty
In the past two days, the family has used a lot of water, and Liu Shi has not been idle for a while, so he poured it into the tank and went out to continue to fetch water, so he kept carrying water back and forth, Yun Shu's eyes were full of water, and he was about to pull out his legs and leave
A woman came in at the gate of the courtyard, in her thirties, chubby, dressed in a village atmosphere with a demonic aura, huh? Something seems to be missing, yes, yes, it's like there's a Woods missing from the corners of the mouth
What does this look like? Two words flashed in her mind, "matchmaker"
If you want to say that the matchmaker in the Zhu family is not new, there are several young men in this family, and the daughters of the big house are almost in time, and it is normal to say that they are close
But with her understanding of this old pious woman, if she doesn't be a demon, then she won't be called Zhang Guixiang, I'm sorry for her own name, hum
Seeing that Zhang saw the matchmaker, he was immediately overjoyed, hurriedly stood up, stepped forward and took the matchmaker's hand enthusiastically, entered the upper room affectionately, and closed the door casually
So Yun Shu went around to the back of the main room and put his ear on the mud wall
The two sat on the kang, Zhang Guixiang poured a cup of hot water on the kang table, "Cuihua, drink white water, my family is working, there is no fire,"
"You're polite, we know each other so well, you have a door for me."
"Who? Whose daughter? ”
"You don't know, it's a family surnamed Zhao in Wangtai Village,"
"That village is quite far from our village,"
"It's good to be far away, I won't often go back to my parents' house when I'm far away, let me tell you, this girl is the old girl in the family, she is very favored, and she looks good, that is, her temper is not very good, but there are many things to marry."
Zhang sounded a little unhappy, "Bad temper? What's the matter, my family doesn't want to marry an aunt and grandmother to come back and wait, do you see, our family is diligent people"
The woman named Cuihua slapped Zhang's arm, "Guixiang, don't pick it, this is the relationship between the two of us, I won't talk about this family if you change someone, the girl is twenty-three, how old is your filial piety?" Thirty-three? Ten years short."
When Yun Shu outside heard that it was related to Zhu Xiaoxian, he immediately understood what was going on, and gritted his teeth, "Well, do you want to take a concubine?" Or do you want to get married? ”
"Cuihua, it's okay if you say anything else, if you have a bad temper, I really don't want to"
"Cut, Guixiang, do you think your filial piety is still a young man? Oh, you want to look, you have to have good conditions, and you have a good temper, it's all yours, if there is such a thing, you would have married into a high-ranking family a long time ago, can it be your turn? Who doesn't have a problem, no matter how bad her temper is, if she marries, that is your family, you are a mother-in-law, what else can she do to you, besides, do you know how many people marry? ”
"How much?"
"I heard that there is a dowry of one hundred taels of silver," Zhang was a little moved
"Let me think about it, think again,"
"What else do you want, there is no store in this village, your filial piety is the father of five children, to be able to marry such a daughter-in-law, that is to burn high incense, I have tried to use words, people are not unhappy, and they do not nod, when the time comes, let your third son have a good time, see each other, how about it?"
Seeing that the Zhang family was still not very happy, he continued, "Do you know how many brothers there are?" ”
"How much?"
"Five, the fortune teller has said that the girl is the life of giving birth to a son, and the children and grandchildren are blessed,"
Now it came to Zhang's heart, "Then let's make an appointment, I'll take Xiaoxian to see that girl, there are no other girls?" It's okay to be widowed and have no children."
"Not now, if you don't rush, just wait"
"Okay, let's take a look at this first" said very strongly
The matchmaker looked out from the window, "You want to build a house?" ”
"A few rooms, not enough to stay"
"Okay, you're busy, I have to go to another house, and there is still a family to say kiss" The matchmaker got up, Zhang opened the door and sent it out, and the rest of the family ignored the matchmaker
The matchmaker walked not far and shook the handkerchief, "What's the matter, how good you think your son is, you dislike it, and you want to marry the daughter of a wealthy family?" I don't look at my own virtues, hum~"
Yun Shu walked out of the Zhu family and stood outside, "Wangtai Village? Then he looked up at the sky, didn't go back to the back mountain, and ran straight away
She wants to take a look, inquire, and don't think that she wants to destroy this marriage, so she won't
Shi started to do light work, and it didn't take long to arrive, and you didn't need to ask, just listen to the old ladies and daughters-in-law who were sitting at the door chatting, and you could know
"Hi, I heard that the matchmaker is going to kiss the old daughter of Zhao Gazi's family"
"No, I heard that the man's home is far away from here, if you come to inquire, who will want her"
"That's it, a grumpy man like a madman, what's the use of a dowry, it's too lazy to eat, and it won't do anything."
"Shhh
"What will it be?"
"I'm going to have a son, haha,"
"What woman doesn't give birth"
"Cut, what do you know, I heard that this family who wants to marry already has five daughters, so they want to have a son to pass on the lineage, otherwise who will say kiss her"
"Five daughters?"
"Well, when the matchmaker went to say goodbye, someone heard it by the window, saying that the man's daughter-in-law could not be reborn,"
"Then she married and was a concubine?"
"It's not a concubine, it's a flat wife, marry as a wife, and when she has a son, she will immediately demote her original partner to a concubine"
"It's so pitiful,"
"Hey~ No way, who told her that she couldn't give birth, filial piety comes first, no later is great, a woman can't give birth to a son sooner or later."
Yun Shu, who was listening quietly on the side, turned around and left, hearing what he wanted to hear, there was no need to stay
Back to the cave, silently smashed the last corner out, then cleaned it up, and cleaned up the plane again
When she is in a bad mood, she likes to do something quietly, and today she is in a bad mood, very bad
During the time she came here, she had been looking at things with her own thinking, and she had never looked at it from the perspective of an ordinary woman
A woman with no ability, a thin one, and five children, hey~
She has to think about it, what kind of life she wants to give them when she rescues them from the fire kang in the future, it is not something you can protect them for a lifetime, unless it is solved from the root
She has to think about it, hey~
In fact, it is like this everywhere, it is difficult to be a woman, and the inequality between men and women in ancient times is even more harmful, which is like the place she has been, where women are spoiled as princesses in the family
The woman in this person wants to resist unless she has a strong backer
So, let her be their backer! She was willing to be patient and teach them
Yes, lead them on the road that the country will not let the eyebrows
