Chapter 187: Between the Children
She didn't know the rest of the Shen family, so she only had a friendship or two with Mrs. Shen.
Since her mother heard it, Ma Juncai called that person "young master" instead of "master", which is a bit of a consideration.
Shen Cexing is the master of the Shen family, and how many brothers and nephews Master Shen Cexing has in the Shen Mansion, Li Xin naturally does not know. But just by virtue of the word "young master", Li Xin can also infer that the son-in-law who is with Ma Juncai must be Shen Cexing's junior.
The second master of the Shen family is both in the field as county officials, and the third master has just come back, although the fourth master is a gentleman, but others only call him "fourth master", and do not call him a young master. The title of the master should be the turn of the word "young master".
Is it the grandson of Master Shen Cexing's brother?
Li Xin thought about it secretly, and probably had an understanding in her heart. Thinking that she is just linked to Mrs. Shen, the matter of the brother's inner house next to Master Shen has nothing to do with her, even if this Ma Juncai is just that she has thought about marrying someone and inquired about a sentence or two, it is not a friendship.
So he put it aside.
Li Xin instructed Liu: "Mother, don't take this out and talk nonsense, and don't tell others about it." One spreads, tens, hundreds, hundreds, thousands, and finally it will be known to everyone. Although you said that the aunt of the Ma family couldn't stand you, but this marriage was also yellow, and you couldn't afford to pull this skin with others, so you two still have a little friendship in it. ”
Liu moved his mouth to speak, but Li Xin hurriedly pulled her and said, "Okay, mother, even if this matter is over, the aunt of the Ma family must also know about Ma Juncai, so I thought about finding a girl for him to marry." This is someone's family ugliness, and family ugliness is not publicized, so don't attract hatred. ”
Liu nodded hurriedly: "Mother knows that Mother knows, didn't Mother just tell you, and you didn't say a word to your sister-in-law and sisters." ”
"That's not stable." Li Xin smiled and said, "Mother, you yourself also know that you have a fast mouth." If you quarrel with the aunt of the Ma family one day, you will have to tell the matter in one go. ”
Liu laughed twice and slapped Li Xin again: "Don't bury your mother and me!" My mother has lived for most of her life, but she still doesn't know a little bit of proportion? ”
Li Xin laughed, and Liu bumped into her: "Have you remembered what my mother told you?" When you go back, you have to take good care of your body. It's the New Year. This year, you have to earn a good hand, and the days will be more prosperous before you can live. ”
Li Xin nodded slightly.
After Guan Wen and Li Houzhong greeted each other, they waited for Li Xin, planning to go back after saying hello to Li Xin's mother's father and sister-in-law. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"
Li Ming pursed his lips and stood in front of Li Xin and asked her, "Sister, are you doing well?" ”
"It's good." Li Xin patted him on the shoulder: "Ming'er is getting taller and taller, when my sister comes back after a while, won't you be taller than my sister?" Then he pulled his clothes and said, "I have lost a little weight, and I usually eat more." Only when you have a strong body can you have the strength to do things. ”
Li Ming nodded, squatted down to tease Yang'er and said, "Yang'er, go back and think about your little uncle." ”
Yang'er grinned: "Yang'er will miss my little uncle!" ”
"I still have to listen to my mother."
"Well, listen to my mother!"
Yang'er hugged Li Xin's leg and smiled at Li Ming with her face next to her leg.
Li Xin said: "Yang'er likes you, and she has been sticking to you for the past few days." ”
After thinking about it, he asked Li Ming: "Does Mr. Gu accept a child like him?" ”
Li Ming paused and asked Li Xindao: "Sister wants to send Yang'er to study?" ”
"Well, I don't want him to be very promising, it's enough to be literate and reasonable. He is now four years old. It's about the same age as Shanzi, does my sister-in-law have any ideas to send Shanzi to study? ”
Hearing Li Xin's mention of Shanzi, Zhang's busy came over. Li Xin asked again. Zhang said: "My mother-in-law has such a meaning, I just think it costs too much...... The work of the field must be done by man. ”
Li Xin also sighed.
After my father came out of the house, the land was also divided. Dad's waist is not good, so he can't go to the ground, so basically the land is handed over to the eldest brother and second brother to cultivate. Although the third brother is a scholar, he usually helps to work in the field, but after all, his body is thinner, and he is not as good as the eldest brother and second brother who have been working in the field for many years.
The reason why men are important in the township is because men can go to the land to farm. The people who dig in the field value the land, and the girl can go to the ground. It's definitely not comparable to the physical strength of a male baby. This is how the preference for sons comes about - men can work in the fields, but women have to marry when they reach a certain age, and it is a big deal to get a little dowry from the husband's family, how much can it do?
Li Xin always felt that it was easier to get up early and work in the fields at night, as well as to do a small business. She has some ideas, but she is afraid that her father and brother, who have been digging in the field all her life, do not want to leave the ground.
Li Ming said: "Sister." You don't have to worry, I can help Shanzi, as long as he is willing to learn, he doesn't have to go to the academy to study. ”
Zhang also smiled: "Shanzi likes to study with his little uncle, and he shakes his head and learns with his head." Let's see later, he's still young. ”
"Sister-in-law has to make up her mind with her eldest brother anyway, our family now has Ming'er studying, and future generations will give our family a reputation of 'farming and reading heirlooms'." Li Xin smiled and said, "But I still think it's better to let Shanzi study, although Ming'er can teach Shanzi, but he has limited time in the end, and he is not a serious teacher." ”
Zhang nodded and said, "Sister-in-law knows, you, don't worry about your own business, take care of us." ”
As he spoke, he laughed and slapped her: "Go back quickly, your boss has been looking at you for a long time." ”
Li Xin's face turned red all of a sudden, and Zhang leaned into her ear again and said, "You have to remember what your sister-in-law told you, don't go in your left ear and out your right ear." ”
Seeing Li Xin nodding slightly, Zhang smiled and pushed her: "Hurry up." ”
"Mother, sister-in-law is driving me away!"
"Look at you, wow, wow, I'll let you go!" Liu smiled and waved at Li Xin: "Go quickly, otherwise I'm afraid it will be late when I get home." ”
Li Xin responded with a smile, and said to Li Houzhong: "Dad, I'm going back." ”
"Ah, go ahead, be careful on the road."
"Sister, Brother Wen, be careful on the road."
"Goodbye aunt and uncle, goodbye brother Yang'er......"
Guan Wen and Li Xin waved at the Li family and asked Yang'er to say goodbye to her grandparents, and Yang'er also waved at them, crying like Shanzi.
The two villains have been playing together for the past few days, and their feelings are naturally there, and they are even more reluctant to be separated at this time.
Li Xin hugged Yang'er, Guan Wen memorized it, which was the things given by Mr. Li at Li Jin's funeral, and Liu also stuffed some eggs, noodles and other foods into it.
The two of them set off to walk to Lotus Village, Yang'er sobbed and choked for a while, but stopped crying, hugged Li Xin's neck and clicked her eyelids, looking sleepy and wanting to sleep.
Guan Wen stopped and said to Li Xin: "I'll hug him." ”
"It's okay, I can hold it." Li Xin pursed his mouth: "Let's go, he's not too heavy, it's much lighter than the one on your back." ”
Guan Wen helped Li Xin change Yang'er's posture, making it more stable and easier for Li Xin to hold him, and then he sighed and said, "What about the long way." ”
"How long are you going to sleep with him? The child wakes up after a while. ”
Li Xin walked forward, Guan Wen followed, Li Xin discussed with him: "I asked my mother today, the three families who showed Ah Xiu in front of me, this marriage is not working." The conditions mentioned by the first family, we can't afford it, and we have already engaged to others, and the kid in the second family wants to keep filial piety to his grandmother, and we can't talk about marriage for three years. And then there is a third one...... is working in the Shen family, Ah Xiu is bound to feel awkward, and I also feel awkward, so I won't mention this stubble. ”
Li Xin suppressed the news of the Ma family, and only told Guan Wen like this.
Guan Wen was stunned at first, then sighed and said: "Why is Ah Xiu's marriage so bumpy, her eighteenth birthday has passed, and the marriage is delayed, and she will always be allowed to marry before the nineteenth ......"
Li Xin naturally knew this reason, but things had caught up, and the people who watched it had gone wrong, and she was also anxious here. The key is where Ah Xiu's age is......
Sighing, Li Xin said, "I'll go to Xing'er tomorrow to discuss it and see if there are any candidates on her side." ”
Guan Wen could only nod.
Li Xin thought that she would sleep with Yang'er for a while, but she didn't think that she would hug her all the way to Lotus Village, and Yang'er rubbed her eyes and woke up, and saw that it was dark.
Li Xin had been holding her, her hands were already sore, and when she saw him waking up, she hurriedly let him go to the ground and rubbed her shoulders.
Yang'er shouted in a daze: "Mother." ”
"Well, do you still want to sleep?"
Yang'er shook her head and yawned.
Guan Wen picked him up and said, "Let you hand him over to me to hug, you don't listen, your hands are sore, right?" ”
"It's okay, you didn't just hold him on the road, didn't you also change his position and let me carry him for a while and hug him for a while?"
"I should make a backpack for pretending to be a child." Guan Wen smiled: "In this way, I won't be tired of carrying him on my back in the future." ”
"What to do with that, you have to think about it. Yang'er himself is sensible, he won't run around and make trouble, you see he sleeps in my arms and doesn't see much movement. ”
Li Xin straightened Yang'er's collar, tightened his neck to prevent the neckline from being open~~.cn-update starter~~ wind, and rubbed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief: "Okay, hurry back, our Yang'er's stomach must be growling." ”
As he was saying that, Yang'er's stomach screamed with "cooing".
Li Xin and Guan Wen immediately laughed, and Yang'er buried her little head in Guan Wen's arms in embarrassment.
When the couple arrived at the new house, it was already dark, and before they could go uphill, they heard Erhei's muffled screams.
It's strange to say that these two blacks are also strange, and when they rarely call, they are just sullenly rushing at people, as if they are ready to pounce. But Li Xin felt that his personality was quite gentle, at least he would never hurt anyone.
went uphill, Er Hei was probably familiar with the smell of the owner, so he ran over and rubbed her leg next to Li Xin. (To be continued.)
