At dinner, Luo Balin looked at his two daughters with a smile on his face, "It seems that the girl of our Luo family has grown up." ”

"Yes, they've all grown up, and in two months, Pear Blossom will be married. Xiumei has also grown a lot taller. Chen Lianying also looked at the two girls, also with a smile on her face.

"Yes, when Pear Blossom's marriage is completed, we will have a big wish. In the future, it's time to think about finding a good family for Xiumei. Luo Barin said with a smile.

"Daddy, I don't want to get married so early, when the eldest sister gets married, I'll be the only girl in the family." Luo Xiumei looked at Luo Balin and said.

"Haha, it turns out that Xiumei doesn't want to get married yet. It's okay, wait for your eldest sister to get married, and you can stay with us at home for a few more years. Luo Balin looked at Luo Xiumei with a smile and said.

"Daddy, Mom, when I get married, shouldn't my eldest brother find a sister-in-law again? After all, Keding is still young, and he still needs someone to take care of it. Luo Lihua said sincerely, because since her sister-in-law died, she has been helping Chen Lianying take care of Luo Keding together, and she also hopes that this nephew can be loved.

"That's natural, when the time comes, we'll pick a good family affair for your eldest brother." Luo Baring said with a smile.

"Daddy, has Tongluo Village decided when to pick up the kiss?" Luo Xiumei asked.

"I haven't sent someone to say it yet, I only said last time that after the autumn harvest, they will definitely send someone to say it before receiving relatives.

Then we can prepare the dowry. Luo Barin said.

"Yes, when it comes to dowry, do you have an idea?" Chen Lianying asked casually.

"Rika, tell us if you need anything. We'll be ready then. Luo Balin looked at Luo Lihua and asked, Luo Lihua lowered her head and thought for a while, before she whispered: "Everything is arranged by my parents." All I need is some thread, white cloth for insoles, and I can embroider a pair for everyone in the family. ”

"Haha, okay, it's still Rika sensible, madam, you just prepare what Rika wants." Luo Balin looked at Chen Lianying and said.

"Well, I'll be the owner of the village." Chen Lianying returned.

The next day, Chen Lianying came to the backyard with her things, and the two of them talked calmly. This is the first time they have talked together since Luo Lihua was turned off last time.

"Pear blossom, time flies so fast, you have to prepare a dowry in a blink of an eye. I still thought that when you were a child, you were thin and weak, so I didn't let you go out......" Chen Lianying looked at Luo Lihua and recalled.

"Mom, I know, I was a lot of wrestling and I wasn't very steady walking, so you let me stay in the backyard." Luo Lihua remembered that she was almost two years old when she was a child, and she started to learn to walk. I can't walk steadily, and I always fall and my legs are blue and purple.

"Yes, if you fall, you just cried a few times and then obediently stopped. It's just that at night, my legs are red and swollen, and my mother is really distressed. Pear Blossom, don't blame your mother for closing you, Mom did all this for your good. Chen Lianying said affectionately, reaching out and touching Luo Lihua's face.

"Mom, I understand, don't worry, I will listen to you and my father and marry in Tongluo Village." Luo Lihua just said calmly.

"That's good. If you are really with that, hey, shouldn't be a good person, not to mention far away, even these clan elders in the village will not spare you. Chen Lianying explained.

"Mom, has this happened in our village, what happened in the end?" Luo Lihua plucked up the courage to ask.

"I haven't seen it since I got married, but I saw such a thing when I was in my family's village earlier, when I was a teenager and I didn't know much about it. One day in the lunar month, everyone in the village was called to the square at the entrance of the village, saying that they wanted everyone to come and witness the two corrupt people......" Chen Lianying recalled the situation at that time.

"What happened?" Luo Lihua listened very carefully.

"The people of the whole village watched the Housheng go up the knife mountain erected in the stockade, and when he came down, his feet were full of blood, and the footboard was no longer the same, and the girl was also put into the pig cage and thrown into the river, and the Housheng was also driven out of the village." Chen Lianying looked at Luo Lihua and was a little scared, so she patted her on the shoulder and said, "As soon as the water blocking mother heard you say that, she was so anxious that she couldn't do it." ”

"Mom, if the two of us are not related, will everyone accept it?" Luo Lihua looked at Chen Lianying and asked.

"Don't think about it, even if you are really not related by blood, how can outsiders know. Even if you knew, you wouldn't be so quick to accept it, and if that were the case, you really don't know what kind of punishment you would receive. Chen Lianying said.

"Mom, don't worry, I've figured it out. It's just that if I get married, I won't be able to do my filial piety by your side and my parents in the future, so you have to take care of your body. Luo Lihua said affectionately, as if she was saying her final goodbye to Chen Lianying in advance.

"As long as you are doing well, your father and I will be at ease. Okay, I'll teach you how to do embroidery, your wedding date is not far away, you still have a lot of embroidery to do. Chen Lianying picked up a piece of white cloth and said.

The two of them were talking and embroidering in the backyard, until Luo Keding ran over to find his grandmother, and Chen Lianying took him away.

"Mom, you just go and bring Keding, I'll do it myself." Luo Lihua looked at Luo Keding with a smile and said.

"Keding, when your eldest aunt gets married, I won't be able to hold you." Chen Lianying said with a smile.

"Auntie." Luo Keding screamed milkily, and Luo Lihua touched his face distressedly. "Auntie will also embroider a pair of small insoles for you."

"Then you can do it quickly, I'll take Keding to the front yard." Chen Lianying said and left, Luo Lihua looked at their backs, thinking about the two young people that Chen Lianying said, and her heart was full of thoughts. She really wanted to tell Rogan about all this.

But she couldn't leave the courtyard, and she thought sadly: Is it true that the world can't accept us together?

Thinking that Luo Lihua actually shed tears, she hurriedly wiped it off, afraid that the mother-in-law outside the door would see it.

"Miss, the one from the front yard has come to pass lunch, you can rest too." When she was sitting in a daze, Mrs. Wu outside the door shouted.

"Oh, I see, you go and tell your mom that I'm a little unwell, so I won't eat." Luo Lihua returned. So she stopped her embroidery and leaned on the head of the bed to think about her thoughts.

"Rika, are you like this? Are you tired of doing embroidery work, hurry up and rest. But just after lunch, Chen Lianying brought the food over, and Luo Lihua had no choice but to open the door and say, "Mom, I'm just a little unwell, maybe I was infected with a cold outside yesterday." ”

"Oh, then I'll ask Mrs. Wu to cook some soup of fish and autumn vegetables for you to drink, it's antipyretic and cold." Chen Lianying touched Luo Lihua's forehead and said.

"Well, well, Mom, I just want to get some sleep first." Luo Lihua said a little weakly. Chen Lianying had no choice but to take the food and go out, and told Mrs. Wu outside the door to cook the soup.

Luo Lihua took the soup and slept for an afternoon, felt a lot more relaxed, and got up and continued to do embroidery. She didn't dare to think of the things that bothered her, so she used embroidery to pass the time.

Finally in July and a half, this time to worship the ancestors, Luo Gensheng followed the family to the stone village again. Although Luo Balin didn't have a good face for him, he still talked and laughed with Luo Shengren and Luo Zuen on his face, but secretly instructed Luo Genhu to look at Luo Gensheng and not let him go to Luo Lihua's backyard again.

That Luo Gen was also quiet, and he could only take a few looks at Luo Lihua from a distance and stay in the front yard with Luo Genhu. In the evening, the two didn't even speak, and Luo Gensheng went back with his family. Although Luo Lihua wanted to meet and talk to him, she had to endure it because of the presence of her family.

"Xiumei, are all the people in the forest farm village gone?" In the evening, Luo Lihua couldn't help but ask.

"Go back, what's the matter, eldest sister, do you still want to say anything to Brother Gensheng?" Luo Xiumei looked at Luo Lihua and asked.

"No, I didn't say anything to him. I just felt quiet ahead all of a sudden, so they must have gone back. Luo Lihua concealed her feelings and said calmly.

"Oh, I thought you hadn't forgotten Brother Gensheng, he didn't come to you today, it seems that he has forgotten you." Luo Xiumei said.

"Xiumei, don't talk nonsense, if he doesn't come to me, I'm afraid that my parents will drive him out again, so it's okay if we don't have to talk." Luo Lihua said.

"Oh, I see. You're busy embroidering your dowry? Luo Xiumei looked at a pile of insoles on the table.

"Yes, half of July has passed, and August 15 is not far away. Xiumei, it's still hello, it's not my age yet, and I can still happily study in a private school. Luo Lihua looked at Luo Xiumei with a smile and said.

"It's only been a few years, haven't you listened to your parents, and when you get married, you'll start looking for my in-laws." Luo Xiumei looked at Luo Lihua, and then said, "Eldest sister, do you say that all of us women have to get married?" ”

"Of course, do you still want not to marry? I've never heard of a girl who doesn't marry, unless it's a Han girl, no one wants it. Luo Lihua looked at Luo Xiumei with a smile and said.

"But, I just think it's very troublesome to get married, you see you still have to make so many insoles, my sister-in-law gave birth to a child and died, and Sister Furong married so far away, hey......" Luo Xiumei thought about a lot of problems that are not good for marrying at once.

"Then you have to get married, or how to live alone, what to do when you get old. Aren't everyone living in pairs? Luo Lihua said calmly.

"Hey, anyway, I don't want to get married so early." Luo Xiumei said.

"When you meet someone you like, you probably won't think so, okay, let's all rest early." Luo Lihua said and pushed Luo Xiumei out of her door.
