The woman sighed and said, "You don't want to say that your mother won't force you, but from today on, you must break off contact." “

"Mother....." The teenager couldn't believe it.

The woman shook her head: "Hui'er, in a few months it will be the Spring Courtyard Examination, at this time you must not be distracted by anything, your father left a will, the Liu family must be a person who has a career, otherwise it will only be like him, even if he has thousands of family wealth, he can only be slaughtered by others."

After the Liu family was down, my mother washed clothes and clothes for people regardless of cold and summer over the years, just for you to study, I hope you can read a personal appearance, so as to glorify your ancestors. Your sister has withdrawn from her family, and it will be difficult for her to do things in the future, if you can be admitted to Xiucai, it will be different, with your support, her in-laws will not dare to despise her in the future, the hope of our whole family is on you, and you must not make any mistakes at this time. ”

"Mother, I have never forgotten my father's will, I study hard every day, I dare not slack off in the slightest, I will not live up to you and my sister in this hospital examination, I also promise you, I will not be distracted by this, but, if I can successfully pass the examination, can my mother find a matchmaker for me to propose."

The boy's eyes were full of hope.

Liu Wang looked at him fixedly for a moment, shook his head and said, "No." “

"Why?"

"Hey, it's time to tell you, in fact, in the early years, your father had already engaged you to a marriage, just waiting for the girl to come to the door to propose."

"What, the marriage contract!" The young man was stunned: "Why have I never heard you mention such a big thing?" He doubted the veracity of his words.

Liu Wang looked out the window, his eyes were far away: "At that time, you were still young, and the Liu family was not down, and the marriage that was established at that time was also considered to be a good match, but the good times did not last long, and after less than a year, our family was down, and my mother used the only remaining silver to take you and your sister to settle down in Anjia Village, and the days were getting more and more poor, but the woman's family has been blooming sesame flowers for so many years, and the business is booming, and now it has become the richest man in a county. ”

"The richest man in a county!" The young man frowned slightly: "What my mother said is not the Li family in the city!" ”

Liu Wang nodded: "That's right, the marriage that your father helped you engage back then is now the heir of the Li family, Li You." ”

Hearing this, the young man couldn't react for a while.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the woman said again: "I won't tell you because my mother can't get the current attitude of the Li family, after all, our family is down, but people are getting better and better. ”

Hearing this, the young man raised his head, and a flash of hope flashed in his eyes: "According to his son, the Li family is reluctant to admit this marriage, otherwise they would not have moved around for so many years, so ....... Mother, otherwise, you should go and withdraw from your family. ”

Liu Wang glared at him: "Don't think about it, even if you want to withdraw from your family, you have to wait for the woman to withdraw from your family." ”

"Then it's so consumed with them, in case the woman doesn't quit."

Liu Wang smiled: "Isn't it better not to quit your family, if you don't think our family is poor and still willing to marry, it is enough to show the character of the other party, the Li family is not only keeping its promises, but we should also be good to others." ”

But I already have someone I like!

The boy lowered his head, not knowing how to speak.

Marriage, parents' orders, matchmakers' words, if the Li family does not withdraw from the family, and his mother refuses to help him propose, what should he do?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Liu Wang only thought he was thinking, sighed and said, "Okay, think about it yourself." With that, he went out of the room.

After a while, a small figure probing his brain appeared outside the door: "Brother." The little girl called and entered.

Liu Hui was in a depressed mood at this time, and he didn't respond when he heard the words.

Erya lowered her voice and said: "I heard it outside just now, and the marriage of the Li family that my mother said is too sudden, don't talk about you, I can't accept it.

I'm still waiting for Sister Yan to be my sister-in-law. “

Liu Hui glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense, wouldn't it hurt her reputation if people heard it." “

Erya glared: "Listen to my brother's meaning, don't you really plan to listen to your mother, and broke off with Sister Yan." “

Liu Hui's hand holding the book tightened, and said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, the Li family's marriage is in front, and my mother does not agree, there is no matchmaker, how can she enter our Liu family." ”

When Erya heard this, she rolled her eyes and said: "Brother, don't be discouraged, in my opinion, the Li family has not moved for so many years, and it must be that they don't want to recognize this family, then the girl of the Li family is almost over, if their family doesn't want to marry our Liu family, Zuo will come to withdraw from the family in just a year, brother just rest assured and wait, now you might as well write a letter first, I will send it for you tomorrow, see what kind of attitude Yan Yan has." “

Liu Hui pondered for a moment and said, "It's okay." ”

Whether it succeeds or not, he will eventually give her an explanation for this matter.

After writing the letter, Liu Hui carefully folded the letter, handed it to Erya and said, "Be careful, don't let my mother find out." ”

Erya nodded, solemnly took the letter and hid it closely: "It's late at night, brother, I'll go back to the room first." ”

"Well, go ahead, go to bed early."

Sending Erya away, Liu Hui drew another book and read it, time is running out, he must pass the college exam this time!

The next day, noon.

Li Yan was settling accounts behind the counter when she heard someone call her: 'Sister Yan. ”

Seeing Erya, Li Yan's face turned red instantly, and she hurriedly beckoned her to come in and eat pastries.

After coming a few times, Erya lost her previous restraints, and followed her into the rest area of the store with a smile.

Li Yan handed her a piece of rose cake and poured her a cup of red date tea, and then asked, "The embroidery work can be handed over, what does the money shopkeeper say?" ”

"The money shopkeeper said that it was not bad, a handkerchief was given to ten wen, and I hurriedly embroidered a total of twenty pieces in the past few days, and I got two hundred wen, and I will invite my sister to eat broad bean crisp later."

"No need, you can keep this money yourself, your brother spends a lot of money on studying, and you will have to go out in a few years, you still have to have some money to live by, and the pastries in the Half Lotus Pavilion are never stopped, my sister has been eating these for a long time, and she has long been tired of eating."

"That's not going to work." Erya said with a mouthful of mouth: "My sister's is my sister's, what I invited is what I invited, it's different, if my sister didn't come forward to guarantee me, how could the money shopkeeper of the embroidered red mansion be willing to give me the fabric on credit, so I must invite this meal, if my sister doesn't eat, she will look down on me." “

"Hey, I'm afraid of you, okay, you can please please, but can I change to eat, I also made it in the broad bean crisp shop a few days ago, I ate it in one go, and I was a little hurt."

"Okay, whatever sister wants to eat, I'll buy it for you."

Li Yan tilted her head and thought about it: "Stinky tofu, I've always wanted to eat it." However, stinky tofu smells good, so it's not easy to bring it into the store, so don't you get the embroidery work, just do it here with me, and then I'll go with you after the shop closes in the afternoon. “

"Okay, listen to Sister Yan." Erya nodded sensibly.

"This is a rest area, it's not good to sit for a long time, you come with me." Li Yan led Erya to their lounge.

The lounge is about ten square meters, with three bunk beds and a few tables against the wall, and six tables by the window, which was specially set up by the county lord.

On weekdays, when there are no guests at noon, they will come in to take a rest, the house is very well lit, Li Yan led Erya to sit in her place, and brought her two plates of pastries and a cup of tea, and then went out.
