Chapter 287: Son-in-law Candidate
Habits are a terrible thing. Now Du Fangfei is used to being inferior in front of Xie and Xu Chengyuan, and over time, Xie and Xu Chengyuan will also look down on her more and more, and enjoy her dedication as a matter of course, and will not think about the hardships she has paid, and will only find fault with her when she doesn't do it or does not do it well.
Du Jinning also knew that it was impossible to reverse a person's personality, and she couldn't say that Du Fangfei would only take care of herself and leave her mother-in-law and husband alone. She could only show her another way.
When Du Fangfei heard this, his heart was shocked.
Du Jinning saw her eyes wide open and looked at herself, and said: "It is very possible for the eldest brother-in-law to take the examination and be a jinshi. In the future, he will stand taller and taller and go farther and farther. What he needs is not a housekeeper, he has the money and status to hire a housekeeper and buy someone to do housework. What he needed was a lady who could handle it. ”
Speaking of this, she said earnestly: "Eldest sister, do you want to stand with him in the future and let others say that you are his mother or sister?" Women are already aging faster than men, and if you work hard all day long, don't want to make progress, and don't pay attention to dressing, you will only get farther and farther away from him. I bought you such a rich dowry, not for you to go to his house to be an old mother. You are like this, how distressed I am with my mother, do you know? You are not only someone else's daughter-in-law and wife, but also a mother's daughter, my sister. You're having a hard time, and we're going to feel distressed, you know? ”
Hearing this, Du Fangfei's tears fell.
She nodded vigorously and sniffed: "I know, I will take good care of myself, don't worry." ”
"It's normal to be married for half a year without children, and you don't have to feel guilty. You're not sorry for them. During this time, I also asked someone to inquire about Langzhong, and there was a Langzhong in the neighboring county who saw that the problem in this area was very serious. When I'm done today, I'll ask my mother and brother-in-law to take you to see it and grab some medicine to eat. Du Jinning said again.
Although she knew that Du Jinning was a "sister" and not a "younger brother", when she mentioned this kind of thing, Du Fangfei was still so ashamed that she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
She nodded, "Okay, I got it." ”
"Okay, there you go. When my mother-in-law and brother-in-law asked, you said that I was teaching you how to take care of this orchard. ”
"Okay."
Looking at Du Fangfei's back slowly moving away, Du Jinning sighed.
I hope Du Fangfei can listen to her persuasion.
Although grafting pays more attention, because Du Jinning stipulated in advance that the money is calculated according to the grafting joint, a grafting joint costs two pennies, and the money can only be given after acceptance; If the acceptance is unqualified, there is no money, not to mention, and you have to rework. So everyone did it very carefully and strictly followed Du Jinning's requirements, for fear that they would not be able to get the money to work in vain. With Wang Zhong here, they don't dare to bully Du Jinning, a native of the village.
There are many people who are fast, and before it gets dark, everyone grafts all the peach trees on the hill. The Du family and the Xu family were all inspected by piece, and Du Jinning randomly checked again, and when he saw that there was no problem, he paid for the work.
The grafted saplings had to be carefully maintained for fifteen days, and Du Jinning asked Wang Zhong to hire two people to do what she told him, and he also went to the orchard from time to time to check the situation.
Chen and Du Fangling continued to return to the tea garden to fry the tea before the rain.
And since Qi Bokun said that, Yuan Xiuzhu has paid attention to Du Jinning's movements, seeing that she is either busy with the tea garden or the orchard, and completely ignores her own rice field, he is worried that Qi Bokun has an opinion on Du Jinning, and hurriedly explained for her: "This child's family background is thin, and his mother and sister used to protect him wholeheartedly, and he wanted his mother and sister to live a good life, so he naturally had to take care of the livelihood in front of him first." I think that when he has time in the future, he will also pay attention to rice planting. ”
Qi Bokun glared at him: "Am I the unreasonable person?" Although I don't know how to plant, don't forget that my son is an agricultural officer, and I still understand the basic planting knowledge. His orchard was bought early, but it has not been taken care of, and it is estimated that he is waiting for the season. Spring is the season when all things grow, and if he doesn't care what rice he goes to get from the orchard, it will be a year's delay. He lost a share of his original income for my words, wouldn't I, an old man, feel guilty? I'm just mentioning this, he has his own ideas on how to do it and how to arrange it. This kid doesn't look young, he can make up his mind more than anyone else. ”
Yuan Xiuzhu saw that Qi Bokun didn't mean to blame Du Jinning, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It seems that you haven't become a stubborn and self-righteous old man yet. ”
Seeing Qi Bokun glaring again, he hurriedly raised the white flag: "Okay, okay, I won't say it, I won't say it." ”
Qi Bokun gave up.
Glancing at Yuan Xiuzhu, he snorted coldly in his nose and said, "You are really interested in that child." What, what's in mind? ”
His old friend, on the surface, is an old naughty boy and seems to be very enthusiastic about everyone, but only he knows that because he was slandered by a cold arrow behind his friend's back in the court, it is difficult for Yuan Xiuzhu to put his heart into people. can care so much about Du Jinning, it seems that Du Jinning's child is really in his eyes.
"It's just a child, or a disciple of Guan Lehe, what can I think?" Yuan Xiuzhu shook his head, "That kid has good qualifications, and the most rare thing is that he has a good temperament, I just like him from the bottom of my heart." ”
Qi Bokun nodded, agreeing with his old friend's words: "That kid is indeed a good one. He glanced at Yuan Xiuzhu, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "Since you like him so much, you might as well accept him as your grandson-in-law." ”
Yuan Xiuzhu stroked his beard: "Don't say it, I really have this idea, but I don't know what Guan Lehe's plan is." Xiao Ning'er is his disciple, and it is only when they Guan family doesn't have this idea that I can mention this matter. ”
There is another point he didn't say, that is, no matter how good Du Jinning is, he is still a white body, not even a showman, his background is low, he was sluggish at an early age, and his family is not rich. Such a person, even if he is optimistic about him, it is not easy to mention marriage to his sons and daughters-in-law.
As a parent, who doesn't want their daughter to marry into a good family? Although Du Jinning's qualifications can be called demonic, but the scientific examination field is changing rapidly, who would have expected Du Jinning to go where he went? Those young geniuses, in the end, can't even lift the test. He is now forcing his daughter-in-law to marry his daughter to Du Jinning, in case Du Jinning is unlucky and can't go to school, won't he have to complain?
I wanted to come to the Guan family with this in mind, so there was no movement.
Du Jinning was at least admitted to Xiucai, so he could be regarded as having the capital to marry a girl from a family. But it's fast, but it's just another half a year's work.
