The next day, Shui Yan came early in the morning, accompanied Li Xiaoqi and Mr. Fan, Li Zongliang and others out of Kaiping Mansion, but in an hour or two, they rushed to Zhuangzi outside the city, Shui Yan accompanied everyone to walk roughly, leaving Zhuangzi's original steward to support him, and he first said goodbye and went back, Li Zongliang, Wei Shuisheng and Li Erhuai, took everyone to check the distribution of fields and houses everywhere, until the evening, finally set each person's field and house, written by Mr. Fan, and left the paperwork.

Li Xiaoqi didn't have the patience to do these things, she came to play, the things were complete, as soon as she arrived in Zhuangzi, she and Lu Feng both, with Zhang Gouzi and Zhao Liushun, carried the fishing rod to the river next to the fish to touch the crabs, set up a fire and barbecue, the fish was not yet roasted, the fragrance brought Li Zonggui over, and he didn't have the patience to care about the things of dividing the fields and houses, or having fun with Xiaoqi and Lu Feng.

As the sun set, Li Zongliang walked side by side with Mr. Fan along the village road with his hands behind his back, stopping from time to time, and saying a few words to the busy people in the courtyards.

At the entrance of the village, Wei Shuisheng stood under a ginkgo tree with his back hand, looking at the quiet and warm village in front of him sadly, in a trance, as if returning to Lijia Village, coming back from work, the old elm tree at the entrance of the village, the sunset warmly enveloped the tree with a string of white elm money exuding a sweet smell and the elm leaves that had just emerged, as if the smile of the younger sister was as pleasant, as if the elm tree was as pleasant, as if the elm tree was home, the spacious yard was filled with the warm and cheerful smile of the younger sister, following the teacher in front of and behind, light as flying, handing hand towels, sending tea and serving meals, sitting next to him, holding his cheeks with both hands, watching them eat, his smile was as warm as the morning sun, and as sweet as the freshly steamed elm money••••••

Wei Shuisheng slowly took a few steps back, took a few steps back, looked up at the ancient ginkgo tree full of ginkgo fruits, and sighed long, this is not the village in his mind, Yu Qian'er has become a ginkgo fruit.

Lu Feng's strange screams came from afar, Li Zonggui's laughter, and Li Xiaoqi's laughter and words were sandwiched in the middle, jingling crisp like gold and jade, bright and delicate but unfamiliar, Wei Shuisheng looked at the three people laughing in one place by the river not far away, and the words 'things are not people' suddenly surged in his heart, and what followed was irrepressible sourness.

Separated by a few ginkgo trees, Li Zongliang looked thoughtfully at Wei Shuisheng, who was standing with his hands down, and was also distracted for a while, Mr. Fan paused, looked at Li Zongliang, and followed Li Zongliang's gaze to look at Wei Shuisheng, who was shaking and desolate, and quietly took half a step back, pushing Li Erhuai to wait quietly. Li Zongliang was stunned for a while, sighed, strode forward, and patted Wei Shuisheng's shoulder: "Look at it, doesn't it look like our Lijia Village?" We think it is like Lijia Village, Xingwang is like Xiaozhangzhai, and Sun Qidi is like Sun Lou, you listen, it seems that the villages in the world are almost the same! It's home anywhere. ”

"Well, that's what Big Brother said." Wei Shuisheng shook his robe: "It's all right?" It's not early, so let's go back. ”

"Hmm." Li Zongliang agreed, and instructed Zhang Dazhuang to call Li Xiaoqi and others, pack up their things and prepare to leave for Kaiping Mansion. Li Xiaoqi hurriedly collected the fishing rods, barbecue racks and other things, Zhang Gouzi brought more than half a bucket of fish over, and dangled the bucket to show Li Zongliang and others: "Look! It's a lot, go back in the evening and let Chef Zhang make scallion grilled fish to eat! Li Zongliang stretched out his head to look at it, smiled and motioned to Zhang Gouzi to send the fish to the car, Li Xiaoqi got on the horse, and the group rushed back to Kaiping Mansion without hurry.

After dinner in the evening, Li Zongliang stopped Li Xiaoqi: "Wait, Xiaoqi, I have a few words for you." Li Xiaoqi hurriedly agreed to jump to Li Zongliang's side, followed Li Zongliang to the north courtyard slowly, Li Zongliang turned his head to look at Li Xiaoxiao, who was swinging his arm and following him leisurely, stretched out his hand and stroked Li Xiaoyi's sideburns and sighed: "If my mother is still here, I see you grow so big••••••"

"It's time to worry about my marriage!" Li Xiaoqi took over the conversation and joked, Li Zongliang nodded: "No, when you were seven or eight years old, your mother was worried, you have been timid since you were a child, and you are kind-hearted, you know how to cry when you are bullied, and your mother is worried when she mentions it, worried that you will be angry when you marry into your mother-in-law's family." ”

Li Xiaoqi didn't know what to take, his mind turned countless times, such a topic, or silence is golden, Li Zongliang let out a long sigh again, the two walked a few steps in silence, Li Zongliang turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi and continued: "Later, when the aquatic life came to our house, my mother was born, did my mother tell you?" Li Xiaoqi shook his head, Li Zongliang stretched out his hand to support Li Xiaoyi's back, and there was a hint of a smile in his words: "My mother has discussed with my father I don't know how many times, I want to recruit Shui Sheng to your family as your son-in-law, and let me ask Shui Sheng, he is very willing, Xiao Mi, if we are still in Lijia Village at this time, you and Shui Sheng should also get married." ”

Li Xiaoqi paused, looked at Li Zongliang with a smile, and said with a wry smile for a while: "Big brother, if you are in Lijia Village, this is a good family, but at ••••••this time, things are easy to change, and this family business is not suitable for me, and it is not suitable for Brother Shuisheng." ”

"What's not suitable?" Li Zongliang looked at Li Xiaoqi and asked, Li Xiaoqi took a breath, looked up at Li Zongliang, and replied simply and firmly: "First, Brother Shui Sheng is willing to marry the gentle and lovely sister from the past, not Li Xiaoqi who was reborn after death and has a great change in temperament!" Second, in my heart, Brother Shuisheng, Brother Erhuai and Brother Guizi are the same as the eldest brother, they are my brother-in-law, and if you want me to marry him, it will be the same as letting me marry the eldest brother! It's messy/incune! I can't stand it anyway! ”

Li Zongliang was stunned, and only after a while did he cough out violently: "Sister, your surname is Li, and his surname is Wei ••••••."

"But in my heart, he is my dear brother! Just like you, big brother! Li Xiaoqi interrupted Li Zongliang's words, Li Zongliang coughed a few times, and didn't know what to say for a while, Li Xiaoqi stepped forward and grabbed Li Zongliang's arm: "Big brother, our five brothers and sisters are a family of sisters-in-law!" No one is closer than us! When the eldest brother becomes a parent, let the sister-in-law find a suitable good girl for Brother Shui Sheng, and Brother Guizi! ”

"What about you?" Li Zongliang flicked Li Xiaoyi's forehead and asked, Li Xiaoqi looked around and said, "I'm •••••• young, let's talk about it, who can say for sure." ”

"Xiaoyi, although Lu Feng said that he was messing around, his nature is simple, it is his identity, the Tianshi family of Shangqing Gate, and our family are very different, if you talk about people, he is not worthy of you, but our family is too low, look at the eyes of others, that is, we climb high to the sky, I am afraid that you will marry and be despised by others, you are arrogant, and you have a big temper, this idleness is inevitable, or the most suitable for aquatic life•••••• forget it, don't mention this, you are not young this year, the girl's family can not be delayed." Li Zongliang's mother-in-law and mother kept talking, Li Xiaoqi snuggled up to Li Zongliang, hung his head and said nothing, Li Zongliang looked down at Li Xiaoyi, who seemed to be preoccupied, and said gently: "Xiaoqi, although you look up to marry a girl, but the eldest brother doesn't want you to marry high, marry a similar family, there are a few brothers who support your waist for you, you can live with your temper this day, even your in-laws don't dare to give you anger casually, if you marry too high, alas, the eldest brother can't protect you." ”

Li Xiaoyi's face was against Li Zongliang's arm, and rubbed it gently, Li Zongliang's words were all planned for her sincerely, all for her good, she could hear it, but •••••• she was not the gentle and docile Li Mimei, she didn't want to marry someone for the sake of marrying, she wanted to marry, at least marry someone she liked•••••• no, no, no, she couldn't be like this, she missed it once, she couldn't be wrong again, not just like herself, but, the two love each other! He treats her better than she treats him! He is willing to be good to her, and he can be good to her, only good to her, but in this world, the man in this world, her current situation•••••• Li Xiaoqi sighed sadly, looked up at Li Zongliang, lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "Big brother, I can marry if I can, if I can't marry, big brother will let me stay at home for the rest of my life." ”

"It's not that the eldest brother can't tolerate you, the eldest brother can tolerate anything, but you, how can there be a girl in the family who doesn't marry? What should I do when I get old? This girl's family doesn't marry, how can this work? Li Zongliang couldn't think of a rhetoric that could persuade and refute Li Xiaoqi for a while, his sister, even if she doesn't marry, she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and ordinary men are her drags down with her, but this is not married••••••

"Big brother, they all say that marrying a chicken and a dog, marrying a dog is a dog, I want to marry, I have to marry someone better than me, I have to be able to make me willing to follow him, right? If it weren't for this, he would not be as good as me, and I would have to support the family and take care of him, should I marry him, or will he marry me? Li Xiaoqi looked up at Li Zongliang and asked seriously, Li Zongliang smiled bitterly: "How can he marry you?" This is better than you, if you talk about anything else, it is easy to find, if you talk about the eyes of the heart, where to find it? Xiao Mi, with a kind person, you can live a stable life, besides, you have the heart to be obedient, isn't it right? ”

Li Xiaoqi bent his eyes and laughed, shaking Li Zongliang's hand while laughing: "Big brother, don't worry about this, I must take marrying as the most important thing, but if I want to marry, I must marry willingly, otherwise, I would rather not marry, and live with my eldest brother and sister-in-law for the rest of my life!" ”

Li Zongliang shook his head helplessly, bent over from the side of the east courtyard, sent Li Xiaoqi back to the half-acre garden, watched Li Xiaoqi jump into the courtyard gate briskly, sighed helplessly, and turned back to his yard to rest with his hands behind his back.
