Chapter 208: Visiting the He Family (Part I)

On the way back, Li Xin kept a smile on her face, and Guan Wen couldn't help but smile helplessly when he saw her like that: "You are so happy to stalk my father so much?" ”

"How could I be happy? It's just a matter of solving a good mood." Li Xin grinned.

Guan Wen was not annoyed, nodded and said, "Dad, it doesn't seem that he wants to talk to us about those things now, the matter of the river beach...... Ming'er went to He Bo and said that if he didn't agree, it still wouldn't work. ”

Guan Wen sighed and said: "I still don't understand why you are in such a hurry to get that river beach, if you want to make money, we are not short for the time being, and we still have some savings in our hands." Although the river beach is ours, my father has reluctantly agreed now, and we have opened it, it is our business, no matter what problems occur, it can only be borne by our own family, and it can't hinder the rest of the village from doing anything, but there are a lot of people in the village who chew the root of their tongues, and when the time comes, it is rare to say that we have touched the admonition of our ancestors or something. ”

Li Xin paused and said: "Get that river beach, and you will be able to harvest it in the summer in half a year, otherwise you will only have to pay for the stone land without money, and it will take a while to get it." Although there are still some remnants at home, the lack of income is worrying after all. Although the sweet potatoes and potatoes we eat now can be grown in the mountains, and the vegetables are self-sufficient, those are still not as fragrant as rice, right? Ah Xiu and Ah Mei's dowry, Yang'er's shackles for going to school in the future, and they need huā money everywhere, how can they make a living just by that little money? ”

Guan Wen was silent and said: "But there will always be unpleasant voices in the village......

"It's okay, as long as we don't offend their interests, what will they say?" Li Xin said with a smile: "The rumors in the past all said that the family that offended the lotus god would have an accident, but it didn't say that it would harm others. Now that we are separated and single, we can't hinder others or your father. I don't believe this, when the water rises in spring and summer, just tell Yang'er not to play near the water, Yang'er is also sensible, and will not do those dangerous things. ”

Guan Wen just sighed. The eyebrows were still frowning, and he still looked a little hesitant.

Li Xin took his hand and grabbed it, and said softly, "Awen, this kind of thing." If you believe it, you don't believe it, and if you don't believe it, you can't listen to all of it. Nowadays, it is also said that we must 'get rid of the old and cloth the new', so that everyone must change the bad things of the past and follow the new rules. This is also the oracle that we should be in line with today's 'old and new'. ”

Guan Wen couldn't cry or laugh: "How did you get the oracle?" The emperor is far away."

Li Xin smiled and said, "The reason is the same." ”

Guan Wendao: "I didn't mean to stop you, I told my father about it." Naturally, I am willing to let you do that for a living. But you still have to think about what I told you earlier, after all, lotus root seeds, fish fry, and those things can't be born naturally. And the river beach is now dry, and I don't know how to divert water to it. Although there are streams, rivers and ponds not far away, you have to dig ditches to bring water over, which is not a simple matter. ”

Li Xin listened quietly, nodded, looked up at Guan Wen and said, "Awen." You're so careful, I know what you said, don't worry. Will figure out a way, the road has to be taken step by step, right? ”

Guan Wen put his arm around her shoulders, showed her a doting smile and said, "It's all up to you, I've said everything, everything is up to my daughter-in-law." What I said before was not fulfilled thoroughly, but now I make up for it, and what you say is what you say. ”

Li Xin grinned, her heart was warm, and she was a little hot.

Hurriedly lowered his head and didn't look at Guan Wen's smiling face, and let go of Guan Wen's hand. I walked quickly in the direction of the new house. Guan Wen chuckled lightly and took a few steps up, although his legs were still a little lame when he walked, but now Li Xin had also ignored his slightly unnatural posture of walking, and when he caught up, he involuntarily slowed down.

As soon as I went uphill, I saw Guan Wu holding a firewood torch standing on the opening of the new house. Seeing them busy; "Big brother and sister-in-law, are you back?"

"Well, I'm back." Guan Wen replied, and Li Xin shouted, "Sister, bring all the food in the pot to the hall." ”

There was an answer from the stove, and Li Xin pushed Guan Wen to the hall.

Guan Wen said helplessly: "I ate ...... at my father's place"

"That's what you've eaten, you really saved food for your father, I didn't see you pick up a few chopsticks."

Li Xin glanced at him unhappily, then turned to Guan Wu and said, "Second brother, it's okay, it's getting late, you go and rest." ”

"Whoa."

Guan Wu agreed awkwardly, put out the torch and went back to the stove.

Early in the morning of the second day, Li Xin and Guan Wen picked up a simple and clean clothes and put them on, Li Xin picked up ten eggs and put them in the basket, added a piece of cured pork, thought about it, took the baggage and wrapped a few cotton linen cloth with a refreshing color and soft touch, and the two of them greeted Lao Guan and went to He's house.

He Fanchang has been the village chief for many years, and his family is naturally well-off, compared to other farmers, the main house and hall house of the He family are made of blue bricks and blue tiles, and they are more atmospheric than those farmers with mud straw and bamboo sticky walls.

The He family also has a carriage and a few maids, and in addition to the Sun family in this village, it is probably the first one.

Guan Wen and Li Xin stood outside the door of He's house, and the mother-in-law had already gone to inform He Fanchang just now. Guan Wen looked a little nervous, Li Xin took his hand and said, "It's okay, Yinhuan will help us with the item." ”

After waiting for a while, he came back and said with a smile: "Go in, the village chief is waiting for you in the hall." ”

Li Xin said "Thank you, auntie", and entered the He family with a slight smile.

The He family's house is relatively large, and it also imitates the courtyard of the wealthy people in the city. When he entered the hall, He Fanchang's family was there, even He Chunsheng and Yinhuan's babies were there, the big ones were held in Yinhuan's arms, and the two younger ones were held by the two maids.

Seeing Li Xin coming, Yinhuan grinned and said, "Sister Xin'er, you're here, I haven't seen you for a few days!" ”

As he spoke, he coaxed the baby in his arms and said, "Hurry up and call Aunt Xin!" ”

The baby called Aunt Xin with tears in her eyes, and struggled in Yinhuan's arms again.

Guan Wen stepped forward and saluted He Fanchang and said, "Uncle He, I'm bothered." Li Xin smiled at Yinhuan and winked, and after winking back, she also took Guan Wen's words and said to He Fanchang: "Uncle He." ”

"Where, few people come to my place, and Yinhuan says that there is a lack of popularity at home." He Fanchang smiled and let Guan Wen and Li Xin into the house, let them sit, and said with a smile: "Call me uncle, don't be so polite." ”

He Fanchang knew in his heart that his daughter-in-law was fast-talking, and he couldn't have shaken out the matter of choosing the village head and Guan Wen he liked before. Otherwise, why did he just say who the new village chief was yesterday, and today Guan Wen and his family came to the door?

He sighed in his heart, and his heart was really not very happy.

The Sun family is also out of the limelight in Hehuā Village, and the new village head has been replaced by Sun Hongyan, and I don't know what the pattern of Hehuā Village will be in the future. A generation of new people for the old, although this is the meaning of the saint, but what can the young baby manage? Fortunately, Sun Hongyan will not officially become the village head for another year, and there will always be an inspection period for listening to him during this period.

Although the person was selected by him, the final candidate was still decided.

He Fanchang has a faint headache, if Guan Wenlai is going to talk about the village chief today, how can he wipe his face and say that he lost the election because his daughter-in-law's identity is wrong?

It's a baby who calls him uncle, and he grew up watching it since he was a child, and he can't bear it. He also knew that the Sun family and the Guan family had a big disagreement, although Sun Hongyan was not from Sun Pei's family, but he was Sun Pei's cousin, and he was the cousin of the second child of the Guan family.

Isn't this beam a big deal?

He Fanchang was apprehensive in his heart, but when he saw Guan Wen smiling, his daughter-in-law handed the basket and a burden to the table of the Eight Immortals.

Guan Wen said with a smile: "This is a New Year's greeting to Uncle He, although the New Year has passed, we should have come earlier, but the front was because Xin'er and her mother's family had an accident, and they didn't have time, so we will make up for it now." ”

Li Xin nodded and said: "Eggs and bacon will replenish Uncle He and Uncle Niang's body, and taste the taste of bacon with different flavors." This cloth is for a few little babies, not a good material, but it is soft, and it is okay to make two linings. ”

As he spoke, he pushed the burden to the silver ring.

Yinhuan laughed and said, "Sister Xin'er, you're not right! Why didn't you bring your family to visit the New Year? I'm an aunt who hasn't given me the New Year's money yet! ”

Li Xin smiled: "The year has passed, don't do that." ”

He Fanchang said with a smile: "You can't miss the New Year's money for the baby, the baby is not there, and it is okay to give it to his father and mother." ”

Yinhuan insisted on giving Li Xin a silver shoehorn, pressed Li Xin's hand and said, "You have to continue, this money is not for you." ”

Li Xin couldn't cry or laugh, but he also knew that this couldn't be pushed, so he nodded, looked at the baby in Yinhuan's arms and said, "When will you bring three babies to my house." ”

"Yo, look at it, why are you still worried that you can't make up the New Year's money for my son?" Yinhuanle said: "Don't worry, I'll go to your house in a few days to ask for food!" I don't know why, I always feel that the food you cook at home is very fragrant. ”

"It's not, she always clamored to go to your house to steal from you, but she's lazy, how can she cook, she doesn't have that heart or that strength, she just stopped thinking and howled, and howled after a while."

Zhou laughed and joked, which provoked Yinhuan to say angrily: "Mother-in-law! ”

The He family all burst into laughter.

After saying something that didn't hurt or itch, He Fanchang coughed and asked tentatively, "Ah Wen, come to Uncle He today, do you have something to say?" ”
