Liu Xiaomei thought about the chrysanthemums that were not very popular, and looked at the third brother again, but still nodded bravely: "I'll call her." Well, he said that his brother caught a lot of small fish and called her to grill the fish - she grilled it, and said that she liked it very much. "The Liu family has been selling fish recently.

Liu Fatzi hurriedly said: "Hey! And so it goes. I'll go to the door when the time comes. Her mother, you also take the second daughter-in-law to the eldest to take a walk, which saves the family a lot of inconvenience. Besides, the young daughter-in-law only discovered this problem after two years of marriage, let's avoid the second daughter-in-law when we say these words - who knows if she will be like the young daughter-in-law. Even if it's not, it's not good if you go out and say something wrong. ”

The little sister hurriedly nodded and agreed.

Liu Sanshun saw that his family had arranged things in a blink of an eye, as if in a dream. Yes, it is the easiest way to ask my sister to call Chrysanthemum to understand, why are I so stupid, and I have been talking to my father and mother for so long. However, seeing that his father and mother still felt sorry for him, he smiled sadly again.

Chrysanthemum thought about why Liu Xiaomei hadn't come for a few days, and in a blink of an eye she came-calling her to go to her own house to do needlework, and grill fish to eat by the way.

Because Liu Sanshun heard Zheng Changhe come back from selling fish and said Laixi's suggestion, he thought it was very good, so he caught some fresh big fish to sell every day, and also caught a lot of small miscellaneous fish.

Unexpectedly, Chrysanthemum agreed.

While Liu Xiao=Mei was happy, she still didn't want to trick her into going to her house without telling her chrysanthemum, so she decided to tell her the truth.

She asked with some complicated feelings: "Chrysanthemum, you are about to marry Huaizi, do you like him?" ”

Chrysanthemum was surprised when she heard it, Xiaomei is not a mouthy person, why did she ask about this today? She smiled and nodded, "I like it!" ”

Liu Xiaomei was uncomfortable when she heard that the third brother was uncomfortable, so she asked tentatively: "If there is another boy who also likes you - well, he is also good - can you get married later, think about it and decide to choose one?" ”

Chrysanthemum was full of doubts when she heard this, and suddenly Liu Sanshun's face appeared in her mind, Liu Xiaomei had a good male baby in her mouth, except for her own brother, there was no one else.

She chuckled, glanced at her and said, "There are many good boys in our village, but I can only marry one." Huaizi is different, and I know him well. ”

Liu Xiaomei was stunned, she frowned lightly, and said to Chrysanthemum: "Chrysanthemum, let me be honest with you, my third brother also likes you." However, he didn't expect you to marry Huaizi so soon, and he still thought about saving some money to marry your father. Now, you are about to marry Huaizi, and he still doesn't give up, so he wants to ask you a sentence in person: Do you have to marry Huaizi? My third brother is very stubborn, I beg you to go and talk to him, even if you can't agree to him, help me get rid of him. Don't worry, I can't harm you, my family has left, and I am at home with my third brother. ”

Chrysanthemum was stunned, Liu Sanshun likes her?

I didn't expect that. She thought suspiciously, isn't she an ugly girl, why is there anyone else who likes it besides Zhang Huai?

However, when she heard Liu Xiaomei say that she wanted to ask her to relieve her third brother, she was still a little hesitant, should she trust the Liu family?

Looking at Liu Xiaomei's expectant eyes, thinking of Liu Sanshun's round face with a joyful smile, she finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try." But little sister, I'm about to get married, it's really inappropriate to see your brother alone like this. Shall I let my brother come with me? My brother is not a man of many words. Otherwise, if my father and mother knew that I came to your house like this, they would have scolded me for being ignorant just to meet and talk to your brother. She decided to call Aoki, not because she didn't trust the Liu family, sometimes unexpected coincidences and accidents would happen, and she couldn't tell if she had ten mouths at that time.

Liu Xiaomei nodded and said, "It's okay!" I'm relieved that way. I don't want you to be embarrassed, or I won't be able to tell you the truth. ”

Chrysanthemum looked at her with emotion and smiled, "Of course I believe in you." But if a person is unlucky, he will drink cold water and stuff his teeth. If we meet a young daughter-in-law like that again, we can't tell both of us clearly, and we will be angry in vain. Call my brother to be on guard, and we can talk with peace of mind. You say yes, right? ”

The little sister nodded happily and said, "Oh! My father said the same, and he even sent my second sister-in-law away. ”

So, Chrysanthemum told Aoki in detail about the reason and asked him to accompany him to Liu's house.

Aoki was very depressed when he heard it, and said in his heart, this Liu Sanshun is really strong, everyone is going to get married, what else can't you figure out? It is said that chrysanthemums should not care about this matter, is it possible that everyone who refuses to marry has their daughter to explain, what does it look like?

But the relationship between the Liu family and his family is not ordinary, and Sanshun is also a kind person, so it is reasonable to explain him. My sister was still cautious, knowing how to call herself, and she went alone without recklessness.

So, Aoki and Chrysanthemum went to Liu's house with Liu Xiaomei.

When Liu Sanshun and Chrysanthemum met, he felt happy and a little lost, knowing that this matter was irreparable.

Chrysanthemum was not timid, and took care of himself and got on the fire bucket of his house, and took the warm measures first. When Liu Sanshun saw it, he hurriedly handed her a small fire jar and asked her to dry her hands.

She took it and thanked her. Liu Sanshun was silent.

Chrysanthemum looked at this originally very lively and joyful teenager, and sighed secretly, the mental work of teenagers is not easy to do! She coughed and asked, "Brother Sanshun, don't you have something to say to me?" ”

Liu Sanshun was nervously wording in his heart, listened to Chrysanthemum's question, raised his head suddenly, looked directly into Chrysanthemum's eyes, and asked seriously: "Chrysanthemum, Huaizi was not willing to marry you before, why do you still marry him?" ”

Chrysanthemum was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then asked, "Brother Sanshun, why do you like me?" ”

Liu Sanshun never expected Chrysanthemum to ask him this in person, and he was very embarrassed for a while, his face turned red, and he didn't hold back a complete sentence after talking for a long time.

Chrysanthemum chuckled: "You must think: although Chrysanthemum is ugly, she is gentle, virtuous, and capable, such a daughter-in-law will definitely be able to live a good life when she marries a family, and she is good-looking but can't be eaten." Isn't that so? ”

Liu Sanshun was very surprised—this was just what he told her.

As soon as Chrysanthemum saw his expression, she knew that she was right, so she smiled and said, "Brother Sanshun, I don't know when you had this idea, and why you had this idea." But have you ever thought about it, many girls in our village are 'gentle, virtuous and capable, mile, aren't they worth your liking? ”

Liu Sanshun hurriedly shook his head and said, "What does it have to do with me if they are capable!" ”

Chrysanthemum asked: "Then let me ask you, if three years ago, a matchmaker came to propose marriage for me, would you agree to marry me?" You have to think about how you felt at the beginning, don't think about it now. ”

Liu Sanshun thought, three years ago, would he marry Chrysanthemum?

At that time, I didn't know Chrysanthemum, I only knew that she was an ugly girl, but she was very diligent, quiet and well-behaved, but she was very diligent and quiet and well-behaved, so she couldn't marry her, there were many diligent and virtuous girls in the village.

He suddenly felt a "bang" in his brain - isn't this what Huaizi said at the beginning! His face turned pale, stunned by the thought. He was sure he wasn't disgusted with Chrysanthemum Ugly, but he certainly wouldn't agree to that family affair at the time. As for why? How can this be justified? Now I don't care about other girls.

He was very unacceptable to the conclusion he had reached, and if he accepted it, it would be tantamount to approving Huaizi's words. He was silent for a long time before he replied softly, "I'm afraid I won't agree—I didn't know you well then." But Chrysanthemum, didn't Huaizi grow up with you since childhood, he should have liked you for a long time. ”

Chrysanthemum shook her head and asked, "What about now?" Now you don't recognize me, but you also see a lot of other girls in the village, why don't you like them? There are many capable among them, many meek, and many good-looking. ”

Liu Sanshun was stunned again, he felt really strange, and Chrysanthemum's questions always made him unable to answer. Poor baby, where can you think of the difference between love and ordinary family affairs.

If there is no emotion, it is natural to pick character, looks, family background, and everything that can be seen. Chrysanthemum has a problem on her face, and she is naturally unintentionally and unintentionally rejected from the bottom of her heart. If you like someone, then these selection criteria are not so important, and even those who have a discerning eye do not consider looks and wealth at all.

Of course, there are always some people who are far-sighted, even if they are ordinary relatives, they don't put their looks and wealth first, and they don't even consider it, such as the second mother-in-law of the family in Tangji, such as Huaizi Niang.

That's why Yang told He at the beginning that Chrysanthemum has to find someone who likes her from the bottom of his heart, even if Huaizi doesn't dislike her, if he doesn't like her, it's not suitable.

Liu Sanshun was stunned by chrysanthemums.

Chrysanthemum didn't want him to be confused, and said with a smile: "Brother Sanshun, you haven't seen me a few times, I'm afraid you don't know my temperament very well." You think that if you marry me, you can live a good life, and you can't say that you are wrong, but many girls in this village are very virtuous and capable, and you haven't taken a good look at them. Brother Sanshun, some people secretly like you, you don't know. ”

Liu Sanshun was taken aback and asked, "Which... Which likes me? ”

Chrysanthemum deliberately smiled incomprehensibly: "This can't be said. If you are not happy to marry someone, doesn't that make your family shameless? Besides, I'm just watching from the sidelines, and if I tell you one thing, won't I become the gossip behind my back? But Brother Sanshun, what I mean by this is that you don't just put your mind on me, you have to look at others, how can you hang yourself on a tree? ”

Liu Sanshun was a little sad when he heard this, and asked angrily, "Why don't you go and say this to Huaizi?" ”

Chrysanthemum couldn't help but pause, and said decisively: "Because I like Brother Huaizi!" I liked him early on. Don't you want to take a good look at the girl who likes you? She's not worse than me at all, only better than me. ”

Liu Sanshun was silent.

Chrysanthemum smiled: "I said this, as if I was helping you be a matchmaker." Actually, I don't want to worry about it. I just remind you, don't miss a good marriage, in the end, the bamboo basket will be empty. When we were looking for mushrooms in the mountains, we had to grab a piece when we found one. However, if you can't grab it, you might as well look elsewhere and you can always find another piece. ”

She felt that it was really difficult to talk like this, so she sighed and said, "Let's go eat fish, Brother Sanshun, my little sister and my brother are afraid that the fish has already been grilled." ”

Liu Sanshun nodded, smiled at the chrysanthemum, got up and went to the kitchen first.
