Chapter 3 Marriage Contract

helped Mo Feng to lie down, and asked Yue'e to take care of it on the side, Sister Li Yue hung the meat she had brought back before by the window to dry, this piece of meat had to be kept for thirty nights, and then eaten after sacrificing her father and mother.

Xiao Yue Bao'er took a small bench and sat by the window and drooled at the meat, Sister Li Yue couldn't cry or laugh, and felt distressed.

"Stop drooling, there's bone broth at night." Sister Li Yue rubbed the top of Bao'er's head, and Xiao Yuebao'er immediately smiled.

"By the way, what about your second brother and fourth sister?" Sister Li Yue asked Xiao Yuebaoer again, since she entered the house, she didn't see the second brother Mo Yi and the fourth sister Yuejiao.

"Eldest sister, you forgot, the second brother went to pick up firewood, the fourth sister was asked by you to accompany the second brother, you said that the fourth sister is weird, the second brother Mu Ne, accompanied by the fourth sister, the two of them have a response." Xiao Yuebao'er's eyes widened.

"Oh, look at the eldest sister's brain." Sister Li Yue patted her head, for several younger siblings, she just left to help Zheng Tu Niangzi wash the utensils, but for Sister Li Yue, five years have passed in between, how can she still remember some of the words she told before.

The third sister and the fourth sister are twins, both are eleven years old, the two are quite similar, but the personalities are very different, the third sister Yue'e reacts slowly, moves slowly, and is brainless, and the fourth sister Yuejiao, not to mention the impatience, is also very sophisticated and weird, not to mention a few sisters, even she sometimes eats the deflated of the fourth sister, she is a human spirit.

Daddy and Auntie often said when they were alive that this Yuejiao didn't know who she was with.

But in the previous life, Yuejiao sold herself because of the treatment of her fifth brother Mofeng, and there has been no news since then, back then, Sister Li Yue, who was confined in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion, often thought that with Yuejiao's temperament, she should not suffer too much loss, but she also knew in her heart that most of it was self-deception, Yuejiao was a good person, and it was also a little girl, it was fortunate to be able to save her life, and she was afraid that she would suffer too much.

Thinking of this, Sister Li Yue's heart is not a taste.

Fortunately, everything can start all over again, and she will not let Yuejiao sell herself again.

Then Sister Yue told Xiao Yuebaoer to take care of the door, and then went out of the West House and into the courtyard of the East House.

The fire in the east room was burning very hot, and as soon as I entered the house, I felt a warm and coaxing wind.

Mrs. Li and Old Man Li sat on the kang alone, Mrs. Li was holding an old clothes of Old Man Li in her hand, and was sewing intently, Old Man Li was holding a cinnabar pen at this time, and he was marking his mark on the bamboo baskets one by one, and both of them were concentrating on doing things.

Second Uncle Li Zhongda and Fang Shi sat side by side, looking a little restrained, and the thick curtain by the back door was picked up, obviously someone behind it was eavesdropping.

I haven't seen the previous flower matchmaker, and I've obviously left.

Seeing Sister Li Yue come in, Fang quickly stood up, pulled a square stool and leaned against Mrs. Li, and then said to Sister Li Yue with an enthusiastic face: "Sister Yue is here, quickly, sit next to your grandma, your grandma has something to say to you." ”

Sister Li Yue didn't move.

Mrs. Li raised her face at this moment, first glanced at Fang Shi coldly, and then patted the square stool: "Sit down." ”

"Hmm." Sister Li Yue sat down.

"You also saw that the flower matchmaker came today for your business." Mrs. Li went straight to the point. Put aside your old clothes and needlework.

"My business? What's up? Although Sister Li Yue knew it in her heart, she still pretended to be stupid and asked.

"The matchmaker is proposing marriage for the Zhou family, and the young master of the Zhou family has a marriage contract with you." The Fang clan on the side rushed back first.

"Ahem, cough ......" On the other hand, Second Uncle Li coughed vigorously twice, horizontally at his mother-in-law, why is this mother-in-law always unable to hold her breath, he finally asked her mother to come out to preside over this matter, and this mother-in-law stepped forward to do something, this kind of thing, it is best for the mother to come forward.

Mrs. Li glanced at the husband and wife again, and then looked at the old man Li on the side, who was still concentrating on writing the imprint, as if he was in a no-man's land.

Sister Li Yue has never really understood her grandfather in her two lives.

Fang sat back stupidly. Tea soup.

"Why haven't I heard my dad talk about this?" Sister Li Yue stared at Mrs. Li and said, after she married Zhou Dongyuan in her previous life, Zhou Dongyuan personally told her that her father did not have any agreement with the Zhou family at all, in fact, it was just that the Zhou family wanted a chongxi, Zhou Dongyuan fell in love with Sister Li Yue again, so he found the Fang family, because the eldest brother of the Fang family was working in the Zhou family, so the eldest brother of the Fang family took the lead, and the Zhou family promised to give Second Uncle Li an errand of the yamen.

You must know that in this dynasty, the officials of the yamen can often be replaced, that is to say, if Second Uncle Li can enter the yamen to find an errand, then when he is old, he can recommend his son to take his place, which is quite a remarkable thing in the township. This is not only for themselves, but also for the benefit of their children and grandchildren, how can Li and his wife let it go.

And Zhou Dongyuan's father, Uncle Zhou, is a drunkard and a gambler, that is walking on the road, pulling anyone who can gamble, so the Zhou family and the Li Erjia summed up the gambling between Uncle Zhou and Li Da Li Xianggong, so there is this marriage contract, it can be said that although everything is a little absurd, it is also reasonable.

"Your child's family, tell you what to do, and this matter is a joke, your father just mentioned it to me before leaving, if the Zhou family doesn't care, it should be nothing, and give you another engagement, but now, the Zhou family has sent someone to the door, this is a sure thing, take advantage of the hot filial piety, you prepare it, and get married before the year." Mrs. Li said.

The Zhou family is very anxious, there are still nine days left in the lunar month, and the wax is not sure to take it, the first month is obviously not able to marry a woman, wait for a few more months, who knows if the old lady Zhou is in a hurry, so, in private, the Zhou family and Li Zhongda have discussed it, and they will enter the door a year ago.

"Don't marry, after Auntie leaves, I will be half of the family, Daddy won't hide anything from me, since he didn't tell me, that's no such thing, Daddy has never been a good gambler, and he won't bet on my marriage." Sister Li Yue said firmly, after five years of solitary confinement, her heart has long been as solid as a rock, and she will never back down from the goal she has set.

Crisp and neat is her style of acting, as for the disobedience that others insist on, unfilial piety and other crimes, it will rain, and my mother will marry, so let it go.

"It's useless if you don't admit this, I admit it, your second uncle admits it, and the Zhou family admits it, so I can't help you, don't let us tie you up in a sedan chair when the time comes." Mrs. Li didn't expect this eldest granddaughter to be so resolute all of a sudden, this has never happened, and her heart was even more angry, and she also said cruel words.

Sister Li Yue looked up at Mrs. Li, the hatred in her heart, grandma really spared no effort for the second uncle, she never regarded her father as a son, never treated her as a granddaughter, and pursed her lips: "If you really want me to admit it, then I have to wait for another three years, I want to keep three years of filial piety for my father, and I will talk about it after three years of marriage." Sister Li Yue said. Although the voice is not loud, it is very resolute.

Everyone can wait for three years, only Mrs. Zhou can't wait, three years later, the daylily is cold, and the Zhou family can't look down on her to be a daughter-in-law.

"Good boy, there is filial piety, I also want to do it, but the Zhou family can't help it, they want you to pass the door a year ago, you also know the power of the Zhou family, we are small families, how can we twist them, I really want to annoy them, the lives of these people in our family are going to be gone, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Mo Yi and them." At this time, Mrs. Li's tone changed, and she sighed a little.

It's hard, it's not going to be soft.

In her previous life, Sister Li Yue agreed to marry under this translation. As long as she talks about her younger siblings, she has no problem. But the fact is that she got married, and Mrs. Zhou still passed away, not only did she get the life of a woman, but she also suffered from suspicion with her younger siblings, and some things were ignored.

So, compromise is definitely not the way to go.

"Grandma, I just can't marry because I think about my younger siblings, as for why, I think you know it in your heart." As he spoke, he curled the corners of his mouth again: "As for the Zhou family, I am loyal to the world, not to mention that we are a small family, even everyone like the Zhou family, we can't get along with the national platform." ”

Sister Li Yue pondered in her heart, she didn't understand the Zhou family in her previous life, so she was naturally afraid of the Zhou family, so she compromised, but in the five years of the Zhou family, she felt some things in the Zhou family, and the Zhou family actually had many places where the mouse was bogeyed, as long as she caught one of them, she could get out of the way.

Mrs. Li held the teacup tightly in one hand, her eyes staring at Sister Yue'er, this big girl's performance today was too unexpected for her. The national platform was brought out, which was obviously resisting to the end, and for a while the room was quiet, only the sound of Old Man Li snoring and drinking water.

"Sister Yue really thinks a lot, you are a daughter's family, you are filial piety at home, you are filial piety at home when you marry into your husband's family, what is there to get along with Guogang, you can marry while it is hot, there is a lot of time since ancient times, you marry into the Zhou family, you will fly on the branches and become a phoenix, and you can rely on the Zhou family to give Mo Yi a background in the future, and you can shine on the lintel, at that time, the second uncle and aunt will have to stick to you." At this time, Fang Shi interjected, these words were taught to her by her eldest brother, and she had been holding them in her stomach, and she finally found an opportunity to say them at this moment.

"Second aunt, Daddy said when he was alive, relying on the mountains and mountains, relying on everyone to run, if our family wants to develop, we have to rely on ourselves, and it is unreliable to rely on other people's families." Sister Li Yue replied with a light smile. Well, Fang was speechless for a moment.

"Anyway, you're not married?" At this time, Mrs. Liu looked at Sister Li Yue coldly.

"Don't marry. Grandma, don't force it. Sister Li Yue said firmly.

"Okay, then I won't care about this matter, you can deal with it yourself from the Zhou family." Mrs. Li has been being bumped by this granddaughter today, and at this time, the fire got up and she slapped the table heavily. She wants to see if this big girl can be so tough under the pressure of the Zhou family.

"Ah, lightly, the tea is overflowing, what a pity." On the other hand, Old Man Li hurriedly picked up the teacup on the table with both hands, protecting it like a baby, staring at the tea with stunned eyes, as if there was a treasure in it. It's just that he wiped out Mrs. Li's momentum all of a sudden.

Sister Li Yue couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, she suddenly found that Grandpa was quite cute.

While Fang looked at his father-in-law's stunned appearance, he couldn't help laughing, Mrs. Li's eyes stabbed like a knife, and Second Uncle Li looked at his nose and nose.

"It's okay to burn the tea when it's overflowing, what's the pity." Mrs. Li took a deep breath and yelled at Old Man Li.

"Well, I'm going to burn it, you've been talking about it for a while, and your mouth is thirsty." Old man Li nodded, got off the kang, walked to Sister Li Yue and said, "I'm old, my arms and legs are stupid, Sister Yue came to help me light the fire." ”

"Hmm." Sister Li Yue nodded hurriedly and followed Grandpa out of the house. Put a room and ignore it.

As soon as she got out of the house, the cold wind outside poured in, Sister Li Yue shivered, and the snow outside stopped, but the wind seemed to be stronger.

"You go back, Mofeng is sick, take care of it." Old man Li looked at the sky and said in a wooden voice.

"Isn't Grandpa going to light a fire?" Sister Li Yue asked.

"Do you see the people in the house looking like they want to drink water?" Old man Li looked back at the room and asked.

Sister Li Yue also turned around and probed into the house, all of them were angry, and it was estimated that if there was really water to send at this time, I would have to splash it on you. I couldn't help squinting and laughing: "It's not like that." ”

"Let's go back." Old man Li waved his hand.

"Hmm." Sister Li Yue nodded, thought about it and asked Old Man Li: "Grandpa said what should I do?" ”

"Haven't you all made up your mind? I also asked Grandpa what he was doing. Old man Li muttered dumbly, turned around and went back to the house.

Sister Li Yue looked at the dangling door curtain, and said in her heart, her grandfather knows this, thinking, and she doesn't go around the door, there is a low yellow mud wall between the east and west rooms, and you can jump over it by stepping on a stool. Take a shortcut back to Westinghouse.
