Chapter 495: A Trip to Tiger Skin Mountain
Chapter 494: A Trip to Tiger Skin Mountain
Xia Qiqi and Lu Jiu came out of the watermelon field and met several people from Yujia Village.
Unlike the people who avoided the old Yu family in the past, this time, they basically took the initiative to talk to the two brothers Yu Shun and Yu Fu.
Others saw a lot of unripe watermelons in the basket brought back by the two brothers, so they had the courage to ask: "Yu Lao Er, Yu Lao Wu, why did you pick all the watermelons?" Isn't this yet to grow up! ”
Yu Shun: "These are not big grows, and they don't have any impact!" ”
Yu Fu also nodded, "On a vine, there are limited watermelons, we can't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons!" ”
The people in the village nodded hurriedly, and then said: "Your family is going to get rich this year, so many watermelons, if they grow up, they will have to sell for a lot of money!" ”
Yu Shun and Yu Fu are obviously familiar with this kind of question, so they don't need to think about it, they know how to answer.
"No matter how much money you make, you have to use it to marry a daughter-in-law. The two of us are old, and our daughter-in-law has not yet been settled, and we are worried! ”
When the people in the village heard this, they laughed a few times, "If you have money, don't you have to worry about not having a daughter-in-law?" ”
"That's right!"
Everyone talked and laughed, and soon separated.
When he was about to arrive at Lao Yu's house, Xia Qiqi asked, "Second uncle, fifth uncle, you two, do you have someone in your heart?" ”
As the villagers said, this time the watermelon is ripe, and the old Yu family has to earn a lot of silver.
With the money, it is necessary to think about marriage.
Yu Shun is not young, he is in his thirties, and Yu Fu is also in his twenties.
If it is left in modern times, it is definitely nothing.
In ancient times, at Yu Shun's age, some already had grandchildren.
Yu Shun was the first to blush, he lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time.
Xia Qiqi felt that there was a situation.
"Second uncle, do you have a candidate for your aunt in your heart?" She asked with a smile.
"I ...... I ......" Yu Shun stammered for a long time, and didn't say why.
Yu Fudao, who was still next to him: "Your second uncle likes a woman who sells wine in the next village, but that woman has a son who is seven or eight years old, and your second uncle is afraid of being ridiculed, so he doesn't dare to ask people to propose!" ”
In ancient times, it was not a glorious thing for an unmarried man to marry a second-married woman.
If you bring another oil bottle, you will be even more looked down upon.
It's just that Yu Shun will feel embarrassed because of this, but Xia Qiqi is surprised.
She thought that her two uncles were temperamental.
She was just about to preach Yu Shun, but Yu Shun spoke up, "Fifth brother, don't talk nonsense, I don't think she has a seven or eight-year-old son, it's her mother-in-law who has never let her get married." ”
"Wait, mother-in-law? Didn't she get along? Xia Qiqi frowned.
"No, she's a widow now!" Yu Shundao.
"She still lives at her in-law's house?" Xia Qiqi asked.
"No, I've already returned to my parents' house! But my mother-in-law's family is in a village, and I always say that it is their grandson or something, but I have never seen anyone spend money to support that kid. ”
Yu Shun told his difficulties.
Xia Qiqi asked directly, "Has the lady seen you in person?" How does it feel to you? ”
Yu Shun nodded, "I've seen it, the matchmaker originally planned to propose marriage, and their family didn't object, but her mother-in-law made a lot of trouble, and she was afraid that it would affect me, so she ......"
Listening to Yu Shun's words, Xia Qiqi had a good impression of the woman in the neighboring village.
She said, "Second uncle, do you want that lady to be your daughter-in-law?" ”
Yu Shun's face turned red in an instant.
This appearance is clearly shy.
Even if he was shy, Yu Shun still said boldly: "I didn't have the ability to do it before, I'm afraid I won't be able to give others a good life!" Now, I can make money with these acres of watermelons, and I naturally want to take Yan'er to live a good life together. ”
Xia Qiqi: "Then let the matchmaker come to the door to propose!" As for the old woman, it is estimated that she wants money, and you ask someone to inquire and inquire, how much silver will you want. One or two or less, just give! ”
"If it's more than one or two?" Yu Shun asked.
"If it's more than one or two, then the chicken flies and the egg is beaten! Let her grandson live with her, eat and drink Lazar, and it is all up to her. Xia Qiqi said.
Yu Shun nodded, and he understood what to do.
Xia Qiqi knew about this, and it was not easy to do.
She said, "Otherwise, when we come back from the mountains, I will go to town and settle this matter with you." ”
"Really?" Someone went together, and Yu Shun's courage suddenly became a lot bigger.
"That's nature! When the time comes, the second uncle must be stronger, and he must not be pinched by the old woman! Xia Qiqi said.
"Good!"
Yu Shun obeyed the big things in his heart, and after saying it, he felt a lot better.
When he got home, he was full of energy and had no place to work.
Chopping firewood at home for an afternoon.
It wasn't until Mrs. Yu called for dinner that he let go.
After dinner, it was still very early, but several people were going to Dayu Village.
Mrs. Yu sent them to the entrance of the village and told the two brothers, Yu Shun and Yu Fu.
"You two, although you are Qiqi's uncle, but there are many things that you still have to learn from Qiqi. Especially the second one, don't be like a stuffy gourd all day long. There is also the fifth child, your body is a little weaker, but you can't be lazy, it's rare to come to Qiqi, you have to seize the opportunity! ”
"Got it, mother!" The two brothers, Yu Shun and Yu Fu, said in unison.
Xia Qiqi also spoke, "Grandma, don't praise me!" By the way, the watermelon field, but you have to watch it carefully, don't let people take advantage of the loopholes! ”
"Don't worry, I've discussed it with your grandfather, take a shower, and go to the vigil!"
A group of people marched towards Dayu Village.
By the time we arrived at the village, it was already dark.
The village resounded with the barking of dogs.
The entrance to the village is the most obvious, and the further back you go, the shallower the barking, and the fewer and fewer people have dogs.
When Xia Qiqi came home, it was unprecedented, and the oil lamp at home was still on.
She went straight to the stove room and saw the food on the table, as well as her father and mother and two younger sisters sitting around the table.
"Sister, brother-in-law!"
"Sister, brother-in-law!"
The two brothers, Yu Shun and Yu Fu, greeted Yu Guixiang and Xia Duofu.
The two of them stood up, "Hurry up and sit in the house, haven't you eaten yet?" I'll serve you food! ”
"We ate!" Yu Shun and Yu Fu Dao.
"Eat, eat, eat, from Yujia Village to here, Lule for several hours! With such a move, you must be hungry! Xia Duofu said.
What he said was true, when the four of them went out, they were all well fed, and now they are a little hungry.
"Second uncle, fifth uncle......" Xiaohua and Xiaoduo raised their heads and smiled sweetly at the two uncles.
Yu Shun and Yu Fu touched the top of the heads of the two little girls and praised a few words, "I haven't seen you for a long time, the older the little girl gets, the better she looks!" The skin is also white! ”
