On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Yue'e took her family to Beigou Village to pay New Year's greetings, of course, she had to go to her grandfather's house and two uncles first, and finally returned to her home.

"Brother and sister, guess you're at home and haven't gone out." Zhou Yue'e took a bag of snacks bought from the city to Lan Yi's house.

Lan Yi hurriedly invited her into the house to sit, "Second sister, where are the children?" Why didn't you bring it with you? ”

Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is considered a year, if a child comes to the door to pay a New Year's greeting, the elders will give Ya Sui money, and Zhou Yue'e will naturally have to bring her four children back with her parents to pay New Year's greetings.

Zhou Yue'e and Lan Yi sat on the kang together, squeezing their eyes and quipping, "Ziqi and Zizhai went out to play with his sixth uncle, and the two girls came to play with Hua Xue and tidbits, so I could take the time to come and sit down." Don't worry, when you come to visit the New Year next year, it will be time to kowtow to you seriously, your aunt's Asian New Year's money can't be saved. ”

Hua Xue and Tidbits are the two daughters of Zhou Weikun, the third elder of the Zhou family, and they are the same age as Min'er and Ermin.

Lan Yi bowed her head shyly, "Second sister! ”

Looking at her like this, Zhou Yue'e laughed even louder, "What about Yu'er and Wenxuan?" ”

"Follow Aunt Yao to his second grandfather's house to play." Today, the little ones all went out of the village to pay New Year's greetings, only the second uncle and the second aunt were there, the second aunt came over to ask Lan Yi's family to come over for dinner, and the Jia family took the two children over first. Lan Yi put out all kinds of roasted seeds and dried fruits, "Where is the second sister eating today?" ”

"At the second uncle's house, your third sister also came back with the child to pay New Year's greetings, and the old man spoke, and they all ate at his place." Zhou Yue'e was afraid that Lan Yi didn't know who the third sister was, so she explained, "Our old man has four sons and one daughter. A total of seven grandsons and four granddaughters, the moon magpie of our second uncle's family is three. Married to Zhoujia Village in the west, and just added a big fat boy last year. It's a rarity to look at. ”

Zhou Weiji, the population of the Zhou family, told Lan Yi, and she nodded, "Well, I heard Brother Tuesday talk about it when the children of the third sister's family were full moon, and the third sister's family was very lively that day. "Zhou Yueque's first child added a big fat son, and the Xidefu family was full of four big tables, and Zhou Weiji happened to be free in those days, so he was pulled by the old Zhou Weipeng.

Zhou Yue'e didn't expect that her younger brother, who had always been bored, would even tell Lan Yi about this, and her eyebrows and eyes smiled. It's not easy to have someone who is willing to let him speak.

"It's okay if Yu'er isn't at home, I came here to tell you about Li Er's lame family, so that you can have a precaution in advance, Wei Ji took Yu'er back to pay New Year's greetings, their family knows where you live this time, I'm afraid they will come to the door." Zhou Yue'e said seriously, "But don't be afraid of your younger siblings, they are all bullying the soft and afraid of the hard." Li Er's lame man couldn't walk when he saw Wei Ji. ”

Lan Yi was upset when she mentioned this family, "Thank you, second sister, how did you say that Yu'er had such a family!" ”

Zhou Yue'e looked out the window and sighed. "If you don't talk about marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, Fourth Uncle Li is a good person, and he married a tricky daughter-in-law like Fourth Aunt. There is no time when there is no noise. The fourth aunt is very good at protecting calves. Yu'er's father is the fourth uncle, and she is spoiled. The second lame person can live with her temperament, and she has been a bastard since she was a child. In addition, he burned out his body when he was a child, and the fourth aunt felt that she owed him a debt, and she was even more spoiled. The daughter-in-law married by the second lame man is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she didn't come back the day before yesterday when she took her son home to pay New Year's greetings, and the fourth aunt missed her grandson and scolded her neck at home for two days. ”

The daughter who got married went home to pay New Year's greetings, unless it was far away, otherwise she would go and return on the same day, and it was wrong for the Tang family to take their son to live in her mother's house and not come back.

Lan Yi heard her talk about Li Er's lame family, and asked curiously: "I heard from the second brother that Yu'er's mother is as beautiful as a fairy, and although the Tang family is short, her appearance is also Zhouzheng." Their family conditions are not good, and the second lame man looks like that, but the daughters-in-law they marry are not bad. ”

Zhou Yue'e has been married to Lijia Village for more than ten years, and she knows a lot of nature, she smiled: "Tang's appearance and temperament, and her sister-in-law are like heaven and earth." I've lived half my life, and I haven't seen anyone better looking than Yu'er's mother, Yu'er's appearance follows his mother, and she is better than the good money boys around the Bodhisattva, but it's a pity that the Li family is not allowed to see her. ”

"Second sister, is it because of Fang Shi's words that they hate Yu'er like this?" Lan Yi is upset for Yu'er. How capable can a monk who walks through the village and alleys have, he said that Yu'er is hard to overcome his father and mother, and the Li family dislikes him so much? Not to mention the appearance and temper, Yu'er is the eldest grandson of Old Man Li, and they all say that the youngest son and eldest grandson are the most popular among the old people, so why can't it work when they get to Yu'er.

Zhou Yue'e mysteriously lowered her voice and said, "It's not all. In fact, before Yu'er was born, rumors spread in the village, saying that Yu'er was not the species of the old Li family. ”

Lan Yi was stunned and looked at Zhou Yue.

"It is said that I shouldn't talk too much about these old things, but Yu'er's matter, I have been thinking about it for a few days, how can I talk to my younger siblings about it." Zhou Yue'e continued, "Yu'er's mother was diagnosed with a happy pulse two months after entering the door, and Yu'er was added after more than nine months of entering the door, and Yu'er's appearance is not like the people of the old Li family at all, so the rumors have not stopped." ”

Lan Yi frowned, "Second sister, it is not strange to have a child for more than nine months after entering the door, the child looks either like a mother or a father, and it is not wrong for Yu'er to look like a mother." ”

Thinking about the appearance of Li Er's cripple and Li Chen's family, and then thinking about Yu'er, Lan Yi couldn't help but shrink her shoulders, if Yu'er's appearance looks like the old Li family, then it is really, it is really impossible to say.

"There's something my brother and sister don't know about here." Zhou Yue'e grabbed a few pumpkin seeds and knocked them on, and then said, "Yu'er's father is called Li Fugui, but he is different from the second cripple, he is honest and willing to work, and his subordinates also have work. At the age of fourteen, Fugui went out to work in the city, and all the money he earned was taken home to his father, and there was no one in the village who did not boast. When I gave birth to Min'er, he brought a matchmaker back from outside, I didn't see the matchmaker, and I heard that the clothes were better than the landlord's wife in the village. ”

After the matchmaker came to the door, it was Li Fugui's main family who worked in the city that took a fancy to him and wanted to marry his daughter. The conditions of the old man Li's family were not good, and when he saw that the matchmaker was dressed decently, he beat a drum in his heart, afraid that he would not be able to pay the bride price, but he didn't expect the matchmaker to say that the other party was in love with Li Fugui's character, and he didn't want the bride price money, in addition to his daughter's dowry, he would give another thirty taels of silver to supplement the Li family.

Li Chen immediately nodded and agreed, and the old man Li did not stop when he saw that his son was satisfied, and after this family affair was decided, within a month, the Wang family was sent to the door of the Li family. (To be continued......)
