On this day, Liu Man'er was writing a book seriously in the study, although she had asked Li Yongwen and Feng Yongkang to help her go to the job fair to compile the script, but she still wanted to reserve some scripts, so that when she left, there would not be no new scripts in the teahouse and business would plummet, however, at this time, the Fang family came in mysteriously.

"Mother." Even though Fang's steps were light, Liu Man'er still heard her voice, so she raised her head to say hello to her, and then planned to pick up her pen and continue.

"Man'er." Fang Shi called her, and seeing that she was going to continue writing, he hurriedly said, "Man'er, I have something I want to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" Liu Man'er put down the pen.

"Hey, my mother really feels sorry for you, you are young, and you are tired of working for this family." Fang Shi sighed, and between his eyebrows, there was a look of distress for her.

"What's the matter, mother, how do you say this." Liu Man'er asked puzzledly: "I should work harder as a young man, mother, you used to work harder than me." ”

"yes, it's because I know how hard it is, so I don't want you to work so hard." Fang Shi made tea on the coffee table in the corner, beckoned Liu Man'er to come over, and after Liu Man'er sat down beside her, she poured Liu Man'er a full cup of tea and said, "Today, let's talk about some intimate words." ”

"Hmm." Liu Man'er nodded, she didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Fang's gourd, but she also became sentimental in this spring.

"In the past few years, you have changed a lot, and your contribution to the family has been seen by my mother, and my mother feels sorry for you when she sees you so hard." Fang patted Liu Man'er's hand and said, "Speaking of which, my mother is too selfish, and I think that a good daughter-in-law like you should always be our Ye family." ”

"Mother, what kind of stupid thing are you talking about, I was originally from the Ye family." Liu Man'er replied with a smile.

"Yes, in the past few years, Yuan'er is not here, it's really hard for you, you not only have to take care of the family, but also take care of the children, with your efforts, the family is getting better and better, the mother doesn't have to worry about anything, and she lives like a landlord in the village."

"Well, it's my ideal to make you a landlord's wife, and my current hard work is to wait for me to be old in the future, and to be an idle landlord's wife." Liu Man'er smiled and responded.

"However, by doing this, our Ye family is fine, but I pity you." Fang said: "My mother thought about it and thought, it is too hard for a woman to carry the whole family, you are still so young, like a flower, you shouldn't spend it like this." ”

"Mother, don't say that, I'm fine."

"You don't know if your mother knows, you don't deceive yourself anymore, you can survive now because of your love for your distant son, but in the future, you will be alone every day, lonely and embarrassed, no one to soothe, this kind of pain will be understood in the future, even if you have an idea, but after all, it is old and decrepit, at that time, even if you have a heart, but after all, you are bound by your children, burdened by the world, and then you don't have the courage to take this last step!"

Hearing Fang's words, Liu Man'er really couldn't cry or laugh, she said, "Mother, what do you mean by this?" Could it be that I can't go outside to find a man? ”

"You are a girl's house, how can your mother let you look for it outside? Don't worry, I recently contacted some matchmakers, and when the time comes, let them take those gentlemen to the teahouse, you can see in private to see if there is anything you like, if there is, the mother will definitely be hired! ”

Seeing what Fang said categorically, Liu Man'er stammered a little, "What are you, what...... Miscellaneous...... What do you mean? She really couldn't believe that the Fang clan was so avant-garde, so open-minded, and this thought, which surpassed the ancients for thousands of years!

"Are you looking for a door-to-door son-in-law for me?" Liu Man'er swallowed her saliva and asked with difficulty.

"Yes." Fang Shi nodded and said: "Originally, Yuan'er died, even if you remarried, no one dared to say anything, but my mother was selfish after all, and our family didn't know what to do if we left you, so my mother thought of a way and chose some good offspring for you."

You can rest assured, these descendants are honest and obedient, one by one is also good-looking, quite handsome, if you have a like, the mother will hire him, so that there are people to help you on weekdays, someone to fan in the summer, someone to give you a warm quilt in the winter, in the future your husband and wife will still live here, and the mother will never have two words. ”

"Uh......" If it were someone else, Liu Man'er would have to wonder if she was deliberately going to say such a thing to test herself, but the person who spoke was Fang's, and Liu Man'er knew her and knew that she was not a person who would test herself with this matter.

So, she really wants to find a man for herself? The matchmakers some time ago came for themselves? Thinking of this, she couldn't cry or laugh in her heart, Ye Yuan, Ye Yuan, you can't blame me now, let you deceive your mother before, now it's okay, your mother plans to let me find a green hat for you to wear.

"Mother, don't think nonsense, Ye Yuan is not dead, and I will not marry." Although Liu Man'er felt that this matter was extremely funny, she also had to be moved by Fang's behavior, this woman was the best mother-in-law she had ever seen in the world.

"You kid, don't be stupid, there are some things, it's not that you say he is not dead, you have to accept the reality, your mother has accepted it, what else can't you accept?" Fang Shi forcibly endured the heartache to comfort Liu Man'er, and Liu Man'er couldn't help but feel soft in her heart when she saw the grief in her eyes.

"I am now the eldest sister-in-law in the family, Ye Feng and they are not yet adults, I need to take good care of them, where do I have the heart to think about this." Liu Man'er shook her head and said.

"You go and take a look, my mother naturally won't move a stone to shoot herself in the foot, what you are looking for is an honest and honest good offspring, there should be a type you like." Fang Shi stared at Liu Man'er tightly, with a look of anticipation.

Hearing her say this, Liu Man'er was moved in her heart, the old man's kindness should not be disappointed, anyway, it is very boring to be busy with these every day, it is better to go and see, it is a pastime.

Thinking of this, Liu Man'er nodded: "Okay then." ”

"That's right, you're also a mother, don't be shy about these things." Fang Shi said and winked at Liu Man'er, "Since you agreed, then we will go and meet tomorrow without further ado." ”

"Tomorrow, it's too soon, isn't it?" Liu Man'er felt that the Fang clan was too eager.

"Sooner rather than later." Fang Shi said, "You go and see it early, there are many for you to choose from, and if you go late, maybe everyone else will marry a wife by then." ”

"Okay then." Thinking that she would be fine tomorrow, Liu Man'er agreed.

Early the next morning, Fang Shi cleaned himself up, pulled back Liu Man'er, who was running, and said, "Why are you still running here, go and wash your face." ”

"Isn't it still early?" Liu Man'er slowed down, jogging beside Fang's side, and said, "The sun hasn't even come out yet." ”

"It's not early, you see, it's sunrise, wait for the sun to come out, you go wash your face, wait for your mother to dress you up." Fang Shi said, and pushed Liu Man'er in the direction of the kitchen.

At Fang's urging, Liu Man'er washed her face and rinsed her mouth, Fang's mysterious pulled her to the room, she let her lie down on the concubine's footsteps, and then took a bowl of mixed white things to apply to Liu Man'er's face.

"What is this?!" When Liu Man'er smelled this fishy smell, she was immediately shocked, and held Fang's hand to prevent her from moving.

"You kid, what is such a big reaction, you don't know, this is the secret recipe for beautiful skin that my mother asked for with others, using goat's milk, egg white, motherwort ash, as well as peach blossom pollen, glutinous rice flour, etc., use it to apply to the face for two quarters of an hour, and the skin will be as smooth as a shelled egg."

"Oh." Liu Man'er was stunned, the expression on her face was extremely surprised, why, even a simple woman like the Fang clan knew so many beauty secrets? In vain, she still has a modern soul, in comparison, it is really a bit earthy, especially when she is looked at by Fang Shi with this kind of "you are young and short-sighted", she is really a little unaccustomed.

When Liu Man'er was wandering outside the world, Fang had already smeared this homemade mask on her face, Liu Man'er wanted to speak, but she stopped her, "Don't speak, don't laugh." ”

She could only survive these two quarters of an hour with a wooden expression, after all, this kind of pure natural thing was really fishy, and after two quarters of an hour, Fang Shi took out a handkerchief to wipe the white paste on her face, and then fetched water to wash her face.

"How's that, isn't it?" He took out a small bronze mirror from the dresser and put it in front of Liu Man'er for her to look at.

"I can't see it." Liu Man'er shook her head.

"Of course you can't see any change once or twice, just stick to it, don't believe you touch your face, has it become very moist?"

Liu Man'er reached out and touched her face, "Well, but my skin has always been fine." "I've always used jade lotion and cream.

"It's even better to use this today." Fang saw that Liu Man'er didn't buy it, and only said that she didn't understand anything, she pulled her to the dresser, and Liu Man'er saw that her dresser had magically become many more bottles and cans.

"I bought you jade skin powder, as well as rouge, mouth grease, and snail dai, wait for you to put on makeup, and then we will go out." Fang said.

"Mother, the money I usually give you, you are reluctant to eat, reluctant to wear, all used to buy this thing?" Liu Man'er doesn't use powder on weekdays, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't understand these, don't say anything else, this snail Dai, Liu Man'er has heard of its famous name in her previous life, and it is dedicated to the palace.

"It's more expensive, and I don't buy much." Fang said with a smile: "These things add up to only a few dozen taels of silver. ”
