When Xia Tie came back from the town, he heard that Landlord Zhu wanted to marry his family, and he was very happy, and his face turned red with excitement. He said that the Zhu landlord's family has more than 1,000 acres of land and a shop in the county seat, which is very rich. Being able to marry such a family will not only make Xia Shan happy, but also borrow light from the family.

When he said this, Mrs. Xia, Old Man Xia, and Xiao Yang were all happy. Xiao Yang kept urging, if such a good family affair didn't hurry up, what should I do if someone else grabbed it.

Mrs. Xia also meant this, and wanted Xia Tie to go to the town immediately to find the landlord Zhu to make this marriage, for fear that it would be too late for the girl of the Zhu family to hire someone else. also scolded Xia Zhu for blocking the good things in the family, saying that he, who is the eldest brother, can't look down on his younger brother.

Xia Zhu was so angry that he still prevented Xia Tie from going to the town to agree to the marriage. He said that he would inquire again tomorrow, and if there was indeed nothing to do, it would not be too late to go down.

Of the two sons, Xia Laohan is more willing to listen to the eldest son. He has the final word, the good thing is not busy, and he will talk about it tomorrow.

The next day, Xia Zhu killed the pig and asked the butcher in the town about the second girl of the Zhu landlord's family. This butcher often sent meat to the Zhu family, and whispered that the second girl of the Zhu family had a high fever when she was a child, and then her reaction was slower than that of ordinary people. It's not that it's stupid, it's just that it's slower, it's stupid. The butcher also said that there were still advantages to marrying such a girl, the dowry was rich, and the people were obedient.

Mrs. Xia was very happy to hear this, and said, "If you react slowly, you are honest and not stupid." She is better like this, without the arrogance and shrewdness of the landlord's young lady, she will not look down on Shanzi from a peasant family, and her dowry can be spent by our whole family. ”

Xia Laohan also thinks that this is the reason, a hundred acres of land plus one hundred taels of cash silver and one hundred taels of silver in kind, but eight or nine hundred taels of silver is enough for a lifetime. People are not particularly stupid, and they are more obedient than slow to react.

Xia Zhu resolutely disagreed, saying that Xia Shan had already become an official, and he would become a general after mixing well, and if he found a stupid daughter-in-law, his colleagues would laugh at him. It's better to wait for Xia Shan to come back, so as not to complain.

Xia Laohan felt that the eldest son was reasonable, if the third son really had a great future and married a stupid woman, he would indeed be wronged, so he agreed to wait for Xia Shan to come back and ask his opinion.

Xia Shan's face turned red with anger and said, "Our good lady, for the sake of money, really wants to marry me such a daughter-in-law." And Dad, when it comes to money, his head is not clear, but fortunately, the eldest brother stopped him...... Hmph, if that daughter-in-law is really decided, I really can't be disobedient. But the legs are on me, and I will never come back. He added, "Sister, you and your eldest brother help me watch, don't let my father and mother mess up with my family." ”

The Xia family also didn't want Xia Shan to marry such a daughter-in-law to enter the door, Xiao Yang's was bad enough. said, "You should be twenty years old when you turn the New Year, it's best to settle the family affairs first, and set a girl you like." Since you became an official, many people want to tell you about their daughters. My mother values money again, and I'm afraid that she will be good at secretly setting it, and it will be troublesome to retreat. ”

Xia Shan blushed and said, "Sister, I, I really fell in love with a girl." ”

"Who?" Xia's eyes lit up and he asked.

Xia Shan's face turned even redder, and he muttered, "That girl sister also knows, it is Li Xiucai's daughter, whose name is Li Xiumin." ”

Because of Xia Li's relationship, the Xia family is more familiar with the Li family and Li Xiumin. She felt that her younger brother was handsome and had a great future, and he and Li Xiumin could be said to be a good match for men and women. But his mother is not worried, and her reputation for picking the door and treating her daughter-in-law harshly is outside, and the Li family, who feels sorry for her daughter, will not be willing to marry her daughter. But seeing his younger brother's eyes full of hope, he felt that he should still try, what if the Li family agreed for the sake of Xia Shan's future?

Xia said with a smile, "Miss Li is indeed a good girl, gentle and polite, beautiful and talented, and she plays well with Lili." ”

Xia Shan smiled, "Then I will ask my father to find a matchmaker to go to the Li family tomorrow to propose marriage." ”

Xia hurriedly said, "Don't worry. The day after tomorrow, the family invited a guest, and I also went to invite the Li family to see their attitude. ”

The sister and brother discussed for a while before Xia Shan left.

After Xia Shan left, Xia smiled and said, "I've been eavesdropping for so long, come out." ”

Xia Li walked out. She was very speechless, the old couple of the Xia family, including Xia Tie, was really ruined. is such a stupid girl, she actually wants to say it to Xia Shan, who is both civil and military, and has a great future. Especially the old lady, she can actually say the words "her dowry is the flower of the whole family".

Miss Zhu is stupid, but the landlord Zhu is not stupid, why should the dowry give you the whole family flowers!

Xia Li asked, "Mother, do you think the third uncle and sister Min can make it?" ”

Xia sighed, "Do your best." Shanzi is good, he should marry a good girl. ”

Xia Li pouted and said, "It would be nice if my grandfather's family could be separated." ”

Xia shook his head and said, "It's not easy to split up. It would be easier to let Shanzi take her daughter-in-law to rent a house in Xiangshan Mansion City. ”

Xia Li smiled, "Mother is so smart, why didn't I think of it." If the third uncle can bring his daughter-in-law to office, many problems will be solved. ”

Xia shook his head and said, "It's not easy to say that. ”

It's time to sleep, and as punishment, Xia Li insists on carrying the bear-like sleeping basket to the east and north rooms, because it pulled poop in the basket before getting up this morning. At that time, Xia Li was angry, took it out of the basket, and pulled its ears around several times. Xiong Xiang was still aggrieved and sad for a long time. It wasn't until Xia Ju fed it a mouthful of white sugar that it didn't continue to be angry.

The hall house and the south house door of the east chamber face the east courtyard and give Zhu Er's family to live, and the door of the north house is still open on the side of the main courtyard.

The bear held the basket and did not let go of his palms, and cried very pitifully. Xia Li still didn't relent, and dragged the basket from the bedroom to the hall, and the bear was dragged all the way like a broom.

Xia Ju couldn't bear it anymore, and pleaded, "Sister, I'm not afraid of smell, just let the good crying ghost wake up with me." ”

"Good Crying Ghost" is the nickname that Erhu gave to Xiongxiang.

Xia Li shook his head and said, "Good habits must be cultivated from an early age, and they cannot be indulged." ”

The bear-like tears were even more raging. This morning, it was afraid of the cold and was lazy, so it lay down in the basket and pulled the poop, didn't my sister already pull her ears at that time?

Dangdang was not happy to pull the poop in the house, it didn't like to smell it. But seeing that it was pitiful to cry, he volunteered to follow it to the East Chamber to Juejue. With Dang as a companion, and seeing that Sister Li's face was bluffing without the slightest concession, Xiong Xiang had to twitch and let go, and followed Xia Li and Dangdang to the North House.

For the first time in so many days, Xia Li slept alone. There was no sound of Soso turning over, no sound of snorting, and the room was very quiet.

Xia Li is funny, now she wants to sleep quietly, and she has to catch a small thing to make a mistake to do it. When the bear is bigger, let it live in a wing room with Dangdang.
