Lord Yu and other officials left happily with more than 600 catties of taro, and Ye Feng, Ye Laoguogong, and Liu Changzhao also left. The three of them will live in Tongning County today, and they originally wanted to return to Xiangshan Mansion tomorrow. But Ye Feng said that Xia Li still had some things to deal with, so they would wait until the day after tomorrow to leave together.

After those people left, Zhou Li, who was very excited, said that it was too late to set up a water banquet tomorrow, and he would put it the day after tomorrow, so Xia Li would wait until the day after tomorrow to leave.

Xia Li shook his head and thanked him, saying that he was in a hurry to go back, so he wouldn't wait.

Zhou Li waited for the others to leave, and returned all the borrowed things.

Xia Laohan was even happy and nervous, he couldn't afford to come, and wanted to go home and lie down to rest.

Xia Li said, "My family hasn't been sorted out yet, and I want my aunt and Dani and Erni to help again, and they will go back after dinner." ”

Xia Laohan nodded in agreement.

Xia Li asked Dani to send the old man home, and then come back to work.

Xia Laohan asked Xia Li to go to his house tomorrow for dinner and dinner, and this time he was generous and asked Zhu Er's family to eat. Xia Li promised to go in the evening, saying that she had something to do at noon. She felt that Ye Feng would definitely come to her house again tomorrow if she arranged it like this.

There were no outsiders, so Xia Li told Erni about the specific situation of Wang Xin's family, and told him about the dowry of six yuan, and let Xia Erni marry first.

Li smiled, "I think it is." Although the Wang family is poor now, as long as the people are good and capable, they will always be able to live a good life in the future, and they will be good to you. Marry first, and if you leave your mother, your life will be much better. ”

Erni had surprise in her eyes, and her face was as red as an apple. Although the Xia family picks up, she can still eat enough, and the twelve-year-old Erni is already very tall, plus she has a strong figure, and some people believe that she is fourteen or five years old.

She rubbed the corner of her clothes and muttered, "Thank you, sister." I do. This man is so much better than what I look like, and I never thought I would find such a nice home. I will always remember the goodness of my sister and aunt......" he sniffed and said, "That day, I heard Sanbao say that my grandmother wanted to pay four yuan for me to marry the Yang family's stump, and my mother agreed, but my grandmother and my father did not. said that the money was less, and if you accompanied the dowry, the family could only get more than two dollars. I'm so good at work, and I'm losing money on this idea......"

Li Shi also said, "Well, I also heard what I said. I also persuaded my second uncle and told my father-in-law again. The father-in-law scolded his mother-in-law, saying that the people of the old Yang family are not things, and the daughters of the Xia family are not allowed to marry back. My mother-in-law was angry and scolded me again. The second uncle listened to his father-in-law's words and agreed that his daughter would not marry into the Yang family. ”

Xia Li thought of Xia Laohan's body, if he fell, Xia Erni might really be married to the Yang family, or married to a family with a lot of dowry and bad people.

She said, "I'm still a girl's family, so it's not good to talk to the elders about Erni's family." After I returned to Fucheng, I told Wang Xin to ask his family to find a matchmaker to propose marriage as soon as possible, and my mother would also come back for a trip, so that I could grasp it better. These days, the eldest aunt and the eldest uncle will help Erni, if there is any change, drag it out. ”

When Xia Erni heard this, she was so happy that tears welled up in her eyes, and she quickly wiped it with her sleeve. said, "Thank you, sister." ”

In her previous life, when she was still in the sixth grade of elementary school, this expression of ecstasy for marriage and tears of joy for running away from her family still made Xia Wei bitter. He also instructed Erni to say, "During this time, you have to beware of your mother and the Lao Yang family, don't follow their ways, ruin your reputation, and force you to marry into the Lao Yang family." ”

Xia Erni nodded and said, "I know, in the past, the old Yang family asked my mother to take me back several times, saying that they had bought me good clothes, but I made excuses to push it." ”

Perhaps there was too much suffering in the past, and her expression was calm when she talked about those unpleasant things. But thinking about the good times in the future, her eyes are full of hope and her smile is extraordinarily bright.

Li smiled and quipped, "Look at Erni, I can't wait to get married." ”

Xia Erni covered her face in shame, stomped her feet, and ran to another room.

Seeing the exploration in Li's eyes, Xia Li whispered again, "Dani is a good girl, and your conditions are much better, so you want to find a descendant with better conditions in all aspects, my mother is inquiring......

Li smiled and said, "Thank you." Although the dowry they give from their families will not be much, your uncle and I have saved some private houses. Now Erhu doesn't have to worry about us, the idea is given to Dani, plus the family gives it, and there can be four or five yuan. If the future is good, we are willing to accompany ......"

Xia Li said with a smile, "Erni, I will help with six yuan, and I will also give so much when Dani marries." The eldest aunt doesn't need to be too frugal, she will spend what she should spend. ”

I got so much land at once, and my relatives with good relationships still have to help.

Li thanked him again and again.

When Erhu and Dani came back and finished eating, Li and Liangni returned to Xia's house happily.

As soon as the family returned to peace, Hao Yunxiu and Thursday Ya came.

A few little girls sat in the courtyard and chatted, mainly listening to Xia Li's experience in Fucheng. waited until the moon rose to the willows, and they reluctantly left.

Dangdang and Xiong Xiang came back late today, Xia Li scolded them twice, and the family even slapped their little butts.

The next day, after sending away a dog, a bear and two tigers, Xia Li took care of his things again to see what to bring to Fucheng. Last time, Xia had already brought almost everything, except for a few clothes and some furniture, there was nothing.

Zhu Er's family has figured out a lot. Zhu Er dug up all the vegetables in the field and gave them to the neighbors. This courtyard and the east courtyard will be locked, and Xia also wanted to plant the vegetable plot in the east courtyard for others before, saying that it was empty. But Xia Li was unwilling, she would rather be empty.

Xia Li asked Zhu Er's family to buy two catties of meat again, and Ye Feng would definitely eat at home.

Around midnight, I heard the sound of a car wheeling, and then the courtyard door rang again.

Xia Li happily ran to open the door, and it was still Ye Quan's car.

The carriage came in directly, closed the door again, and Ye Feng walked down from the carriage.

Xia Li smiled, "Just you?" "Meaning, how do you get rid of the old and the young?

Ye Feng smiled and said, "I said that I asked Jiang Shoubei to have official business, and asked Changzhao to accompany my grandfather around the county." ”

Ye Feng and Xia Li entered the upper room, while Ye Quan went to the east courtyard, unloaded the horses from the car and pulled them to the east courtyard to feed the forage.

The door of the upper room was still not closed, Xia Li poured a cup of tea for Ye Feng, and the two sat down at the table.

Ye Feng looked at Xia Li and smiled, "I had that dream again the night before yesterday. It's really strange that the layer of white mist that blocked the girl's face before is gone, revealing her true face. I finally saw that the girl looked very much like you, but she was older. When I woke up, that image was still engraved in my mind, and I filled in my facial features. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out a picture.
