Banniang entered the door of the inner room dejectedly, and Zhu was busy cleaning up the messy things piled up in the house, and when she saw this, she said with concern: "Eighth sister, what's wrong?" Who's upsetting you again? What about springs? ”

"Gong'er has gone to the schoolhouse."

"But things aren't going well at the restaurant?"

"Oh, it's not my mother," Banniang was afraid that her mother would worry, so she cheered up, thought about it, and couldn't help but ask Zhu, "Mother, you said that I was only twelve years old, and I will be thirteen when I turn the year, why does my father always want to marry me off?" Do you dislike me? ”

Zhu put down the folded clothes in his hand, pulled Banniang to him, and scolded with a smile: "You kid, what are you talking about?" Among so many children in the family, you are the one your father hurts the most, and you are not afraid that he will be sad when you say this. It's just that I'm thinking about telling you about family affairs at this time, just to find you a good in-law and live a better life in the future. This woman is married, but it is not as good as being in her mother's house, you can do whatever you want, you are such a jumpy character, better than the fourth sister you married, and your sixth sister and seventh sister, my mother and your father mentioned it, I don't know how much care. ”

How much her parents love her, Banniang doesn't know, but when she thinks of getting married, she is inevitably depressed, and now she has made such a joke again, and she has no chance to make it clear to her father, but she should talk about it with her mother, otherwise the old man in the two mansions will really give her and Lu Seventeen's relationship, and it will be a big joke.

Then he said: "Mother, my father doesn't know what's wrong, he just wants to make me Lu Seventeen a pair, and now I've gone to Lu Mansion to find Lu Hanlin to talk about family affairs." But Brother Seventeen and I are really just friends, I treat him as my own brother, and he treats me as my sister. Mother, can you persuade my father not to think about marrying me off so early? Besides, isn't there still the fourteenth lang of the Wang family in front of him? If we are engaged to the Lu family, there will be no opinion on the Wang family's side? ”

"Eighth sister is good at looking at the fourteenth lang of the Wang family?"

What is this?

Banniang wanted to look up to the sky and roar.

"No, mother, I'll just say that, that Wang Yanshen, I've only seen it once, and I haven't said a word, how do I know that he's wrong? I mean, in a word, Shan'er doesn't want to get married now. And obviously the second brother promised me that he would not marry me off so early, if you have to force me to marry, or engage in marriage, I, I will go on a hunger strike. ”

When Zhu heard this, he was angry and funny.

But looking at Banniang's tangled little face, she still patiently comforted: "Your second brother doesn't mean to tell you not to marry, just watch it for you, and if you say anything about hunger strike, should you say it in front of your parents?" You're really going to poke your dad and me in the heart. Such words must never be said again. ”

Banniang nodded, and knew that in ancient times, her words were really a bit rebellious.

"Okay, your father and I, aren't it for your own good? Besides, how can there be a woman who doesn't marry, if she doesn't watch it for you first, do you have to wait until you reach the age and then scratch it with a black eye? It's not like I'm going to marry you off right now, if nothing else, your father and I are still reluctant. Don't think about it, be obedient. ”

"Mother," Banniang snuggled into Zhu's arms, "You and Dad love me so much, everything you do is for my good, how could I not know?" But the seventeenth brother of the Lu family, Shan'er really just thinks he is like his own brother, you can persuade your father. ”

Lu Seventeen Zhu has also met a few times, he talks well, he looks good, it is rare that he has a good family background, and he got along with the eighth sister, and he really decided Lu Seventeen, which is also a good thing, and the eighth sister is only twelve years old now, where do you understand the relationship between men and women? She said that being an elder brother is not necessarily a performance of liking. Therefore, Zhu didn't care, seeing that she was pitiful, he smiled and said, "Mother knows, just go back and tell your father." ”

Where did Banniang know that her mother was thinking about it, so she just responded, and got up happily: "I know that you love me the most, and I'll help you clean up your clothes." ”

Seeing his daughter spinning around in front of him, Zhu couldn't help but smile, shook his head and smiled, and took his eleventh sister to the house to bask in the sun.

It wasn't until the time when the lights were about to be turned off that Zeng Budo went back to the house in a good mood, Banniang didn't want to go and see it, she was nervous this afternoon, but she was held down by Qi Niang: "Go to bed early, needless to say, Dad will come back at this time, and he must have drunk too much." Even if I asked, I couldn't ask anything. It's cold tonight, so don't freeze. ”

Banniang thought about it.

In front of him, Zhu brought the water for washing, helped Zeng Budo clean up, made tea for him, and asked with a smile: "Look at the happy appearance of the master, but what is the good thing?" ”

Zeng Budo drank tea and said with satisfaction: "I went to Brother Lu to find Brother Lu and told us about the relationship between Baniang and Seventeen, the daughter of our family, can he still be reluctant to Lu family?" Brother Lu settled with me at that time, and said that it was rare that I didn't care about the reputation of his family's seventeen langs, and was willing to marry my daughter to this kid, if you want to say me, Brother Lu has been shrewd all his life, and he is above his own children and grandchildren, but he is a fool, just seventeen that kid, in the future, hum, I am afraid that I will be robbed of my head. But it's still your master, I have a vision, so I have to start early. In this way, Brother Lu is grateful that we don't dislike his children, and in the future, the eighth sister will marry into the Lu family, and the elders of the Lu family will have to bear more, even if Lu Seventeen will not treat the eighth sister badly, not to mention that the two of them are also getting along well. ”

"According to what the master said, it's really a good kiss, so when did you invite a matchmaker?"

"This," Father Zeng smiled, "I was so happy that I forgot to mention it." However, Brother Hanlin knows how to do things, so I don't need to mention it, his family will also invite a matchmaker to come to the door, and Mrs. can just wait at home. ”

Zhu lost him and went to bed, Zeng did not suspect a matter of concern, found a good son-in-law for his daughter, and slept satisfied.

Zhu Shi thought about what Banniang said to her in the afternoon, and he was a little relieved, and he wanted to mention a few words to Zeng Budo, but he didn't want him to fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Banniang got up, and had no intention of going to the kitchen to help Wu make breakfast, after washing, he went straight to Zhu's house, but he didn't want to get up early to go out for a walk, Banniang asked Zhu: "Mother, what did my father say yesterday?" ”

Zhu smiled: "I just went to have a drink." By the way, Eighth Sister, if you go out today, remember to help Jiulang buy some paper and pens back. And didn't Gong'er keep clamoring to eat that five-mile fragrant snack? If it's getting colder and colder today, they are hungry when they read at night, and they can also pad their stomachs, so it's not good to ask your sister-in-law to make them supper. ”

Banniang responded, and was about to ask again, but Zhu had already waved her out of the door: "Go and see if your sister-in-law's breakfast is ready?" If it's not good, you are also busy, your sister-in-law is busy every day, and now you are playing outside all day long, your seventh mother has to help your sixth sister embroider wedding dresses and other things, and your mother has to take time to take care of Xiao Shi and Eleven, and you should be more considerate of your sister-in-law. ”

Banniang knew that she couldn't ask anything here, and she was afraid that she would nag again, so she hurriedly went out and said, "I'll go here and there." ”

When Zhu saw her run away, he burst out laughing. felt that she had a good hand to play, and when she pestered herself in the future, she nagged her, and when she wanted to play with her daughter, she felt that she was not a mother. But she was also relieved, she was really afraid of this girl's pestering skills.

Banniang said in her heart, I'd better wait for my dad to come back, and ask my dad directly. I went to the kitchen to help Wu's hand, because my father drank wine last night, so I thought about boiling some porridge for my father to nourish his stomach, I didn't want Wu's to boil it up, my aunt and sister-in-law talked for a while, and made some thin egg cakes, cut some pickles and poured sesame oil, and then took some pickled crispy weada from the sauce jar to cut, and it was ready for breakfast.

When it was brought to the table, Zeng Budo also put the room refreshed.

Banniang hurriedly stepped forward, helped her father sit down, and asked with a smile: "Dad, why did you come back so late yesterday, my daughter didn't understand reading a book, so I wanted to ask you." ”

Zeng did not doubt that he was happy, and secretly said that this little girl obviously cared about her life's events, and wanted to talk about Lao Tzu's words, but she also talked about knowledge, so she only hummed, sat down, and raised her chopsticks to eat.
