Chapter 21 Retirement
Li Chunhua thought that Huzi was still young and ignorant, so she showed a little disgust and was seen by this guy, and before she could speak, she was seen by Huzi's mother, and now she is also embarrassed.
Seeing that Huzi's mother didn't care too much about what Huzi said, she immediately handed over the things she was carrying.
"It's not for the sake of our family Zhengkang, I brought some eggs to Lizheng, and the chickens raised at home were born."
When Huzi and his mother heard this, they knew in their hearts why she came to the door. As if he didn't see the embarrassment on Li Chunhua's face, he put down a basket of eggs without mercy, "Come on, bring something." ”
Li Chunhua saw that Huzi's mother laid eggs, and the embarrassment in his heart was a lot less, and he hurriedly asked, "Have you ever been at home?" ”
"Yes, I just don't know if I got up." Huzi's mother carried the basket with one hand and patted Huzi's head with the other, "I'll cook eggs for you tonight, you go and see if Grandpa has gotten up." ”
When Huzi heard that there were eggs to eat, he nodded his head obediently and ran into the house.
"Sister Li, don't stand still, find a place to sit and rest." Huzi greeted his mother warmly, turned around and carried the basket and put it in the cupboard.
Li Chunhua looked at the chair that was occupied by things, and said politely: "No, no, it's just a little bit of a road, it's not a lot of luck." ”
Although Li Zheng is not a great person, as long as the villagers in the village still respect him a little, any family will go here if there is anything that cannot be solved.
When Qin Cuihua's family came, she also specially asked her father to give a lot of gifts to Lizheng's house. Li Chunhua is now coming to the door for his son's marriage, how can that basket of eggs compare to his son, so he is distressed and still comes to the door with eggs.
Huzi ran out and stood in front of his mother, his chest rising and falling, "Eggs!" ”
"You know how to eat." Li Chunhua was disgusted in his heart, but he didn't dare to bring out half a point, and he glanced at it and saw Li Zheng striding out.
Li Zheng sat in front of the hall, he was not very old, but because of the deep nasolabial folds on his face, he was not old enough to be old, listening to Li Chunhua finish with tears in his eyes, the lines on his forehead were even more profound.
"This marriage was originally contracted by our family, but at that time the children were still young, how do you know what your temperament is, who ever knew that Shen Sanya was not a safe person, and everyone would be gone.
If we don't come home for three or five years, how many years can we wait? It's really hard that my family is healthy, and I haven't married until this age. ”
It is common for Qin Zhengkang to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, but Qin Zhengkang has attracted attention before he has a family at this age, and for this reason, Li Zhengkang could have used Qin Zhengkang's father as an excuse to reply to her request.
Rimasa raised his eyes and looked at his daughter-in-law who was standing aside.
Huzi's mother accepted Li Chunhua's basket of eggs, and she also knew the meaning of her father-in-law's eyes, so she immediately replied: "There is indeed such a thing, and now it is spread all over the village." ”
Li Zheng was also a little angry with the Shen family when he heard it, and he didn't think about any girl, so he provoked a woman to come to the door and cry.
"Is this family really going to retire?"
"Li Zheng, you feel sorry for our family Zhengkang, this person is gone, we Zhengkang have been waiting for Shen Sanya's family to marry all these years, she is good, if she doesn't see it, she will disappear, I really can't see it, so I came to ask you to witness the Qin family and the Shen family retreat from this family business."
"This is not a family matter of your Qin family, and the Shen family must be present, so that I can give you two a retreat." Li Zheng was also annoyed by such a mother-in-law's nonsense, and turned to Huzi and his mother: "Go and call the Shen family to come here." ”
Li Chunhua wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and ignored the pain in his inner thigh, as long as it was for his son, this pain was not a big deal.
Shen Houniu followed Huzi and his mother alone, and he was still wondering what he was doing, and he didn't expect anything to happen when he saw Li Chunhua.
"The Qin family is going to withdraw from the marriage between Qin Zhengkang and your family Shen Sanya, so I called you over to ask your Shen family if there is anything you want to say?" Li Zheng's words finally let Shen Houniu know why he suddenly called himself over.
"This family matter was proposed by the Qin family at the beginning, and now that we are talking about withdrawing from the family, where will we put our Shen family's face?" Shen Houniu opened his mouth with a pale face, although there were only four people here plus a half-sized man, he also felt extremely embarrassed.
"What kind of face do you Shen family have now, there is such a girl as Shen Sanya." Li Chunhua saw that the spicy daughter-in-law of the Shen family did not come over, and knew that the matter was half over, as long as Shen Houniu nodded and agreed to withdraw from the family, then there was no room for maneuver.
"This is all running away with the man, isn't it running away with the wild man, what else can there be?"
Shen Houniu was extremely harsh when he heard this, although he didn't care about Shen Sanya's daughter, but now every time she was said something unpleasant, she was slashing at the Shen family's face.
Li Chunhua's posture seemed to be bullied by him, he met such a mother-in-law who could talk and cry, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "Sanya has been in the city these days, so what can I say and the wild man ran away!" ”
"You don't fool people here, don't think that the Qin family only has our orphans and widows left, so they will deceive us, that is what your daughter-in-law said about running away from home, and you will give a sentence here in front of the insiders."
Li Chunhua saw that Shen Houniu couldn't squeeze out a sentence for a long time, and then said: "My family Zhengkang has been waiting for Shen Sanya for so many years, and it has been dragged out until this age every time I get married, who knows when your family Shen Sanya will come, you can wait, our Qin family can't wait." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, he covered his face and cried whining, looking like a loving mother.
"Daddy, no one in the village knows Shen Sanya now, and it is reasonable for me to say that Sister Li is right."
Huzi's mother is not too eye-catching, if her Huzi also has such a wife in the future, the person who is crying here and quitting is herself, and she took a handkerchief sideways to Li Chunhua.
Shen Houniu is honest and stupid, and he was so suffocated by these two mothers-in-law that he couldn't say a word for a long time, and he didn't dare to look up at Li Zheng who was sitting upright after the lie was finished, and now he opened his mouth and still didn't say anything.
"Then the Qin family and the Shen family will retire from this family matter, and they will get married." Li Zheng pondered for a moment, looked at Shen Houniu's stunned appearance and asked him, "Does the Shen family have any opinions?" ”
Shen Houniu looked at Li Zhengzheng with a dignified and solemn face, and then looked at Li Chunhua who kept wiping his tears, feeling pity for Qin Zhengkang such a son-in-law, and angrily Shen Yuanyao secretly left home, gritted his teeth and nodded his head.
"Then this family affair is just like that, as for the marriage certificate, the two of you have exchanged each other, and it will be destroyed and done." After Li Zheng finished speaking, he got up and left.
Li Chunhua waited for Li Zheng to leave before raising his head, wiping away the tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, how could there be a little bit of sorrow just now, and said to Shen Houniu happily: "I'll go with you, you give me the marriage letter back." ”
Seeing that this matter was resolved, Huzi's mother took back the towel that wiped Li Chunhua's tears, pretending not to see her fake crying.
Shen Houniu was also angry with Li Chunhua's face-changing skill, and strode forward and walked out of Lizheng's house to Shen's house.
Li Chunhua held the marriage letter with Qin Zhengkang's name written in his hand, and the boulder in his heart fell to the ground at once, regardless of Shen Houniu's dark face, he greeted Qin Hua who was stunned, and ran out of the door of Shen's courtyard as if flying.
In the big mansion of Yaozhou City, there is wood scattered all over the yard, and carved and polished wood is placed against the wall.
"Zhengkang, come here and rest, you've been busy all day." The man who was sitting against the wall and resting couldn't look at it, and took off his straw hat and said while fanning the wind.
"No, let's do the work early and go home early." Qin Zhengkang raised his hand and wiped the beads of sweat that slipped from his cheeks with his sleeve, and raised his voice to refuse.
"I said you kid, you haven't gotten married yet, why do you think about going home all day long."
As soon as the man spoke, everyone around him laughed, and they joked one by one.
"Not now, and soon!" Qin Zhengkang said secretly in his heart.
Looking at the half-completed project, thinking about what gadgets to Shen Yuanyao when he was completed this time, the purse on his chest that was close to his underwear was faintly hot, and his movements were even faster.
Liu's house outside the village of Liuye Village. Shen Yuanyao carefully wiped the medicinal juice from Maozi's mouth, tucked the quilt, raised his eyes to look at the sunset outside the window, and could vaguely hear the sound of the willow cow chopping wood outside the courtyard.
Shen Yuanyao packed up her things and pushed the door out, Liu Anyi threw down the branch in her hand as soon as she saw her, and rushed over, "Auntie, how is Brother Maozi?" ”
"Shigeko will get better, what books have you read today?" Shen Yuanyao touched his head and changed the topic cordially.
Shen Yuanyao went home overnight to pack her things, and at that time, she was afraid of being seen by the Shen family, so she left a note on the table and hurriedly put her and Liu Anyi's things in the carry-on space. It wasn't until she sneaked out that she remembered that except for her and Liu's comfortable clothes, the things she put in the space couldn't be taken out at will.
Liu Anyi likes to read, and the books used in Liu Daniu's house from the time of enlightenment are still there, but after taking them, they all became medical books, and these enlightenment books are enough for him to see Maozi recover.
After this matter is over, the matter of sending Liu Anyi to the academy can not be delayed any longer, it is better than Shen Yuanyao's enlightenment.
Aunt Liang moved the herbs that had been dried today back and forth into the house, and Liu Daniu stopped chopping wood and walked to the well to fetch water to wash his hands and face.
"It's time to eat." Aunt Liu put the dishes and chopsticks in place, and said when she saw the people who were still busy.
After dinner, Shen Yuanyao and Liu Daniu went to the house to look at the wrapped medicine bag, in addition to taking care of Maozi in the past two days, they also specially picked a lot of medicinal herbs, dried them and sorted them one by one.
"Ming'er, you can send these medicine packets to the people in the village, as long as you don't get sick, you can prevent it." Shen Yuanyao picked up a medicine bag at random, opened it and looked at the herbs carefully, checked that the amount was not wrong, and then wrapped it back along the bandaging traces.
"Approaching autumn, this time is the most likely to be contagious, so be careful during this time."
The population of Liuye Village is not large, but it is quite a few. Except for these herbs that have been newly picked in the past few days, plus Shen Yuanyao's previous hiding in the space, at most each person can take two packets, and the rest can't be more.
Liu Daniu nodded, signaling understanding.
