Chapter 168: Fifth Brother's Family Affairs
Guo Xuantong sneered even more when she saw it.
How could lime be burned out of stone, this Jiang is really a stupid woman who doesn't know how to pretend to understand.
She couldn't help but look at Jiang Tangtang's eyes with a little more arrogance, and there was still a bit of ridicule and pity that couldn't be concealed in this arrogance.
Jiang Tangtang was speechless, and she didn't know what she had to do with her, making her both mocking and pitying. But she has a lot of things to do, and she doesn't bother to pay attention to them.
Fortunately, the matter of building a lime kiln is not difficult, and after she told her two brothers about the precautions today, as long as there are two brothers in charge in the future, she doesn't have to worry too much.
The next thing is to be busy building a house.
When Jiang Tangtang opened the system, Wang came over, and she handed a rice ball to Jiang Tangtang, "Girl, don't be busy, come over and eat." ”
Waiting for Jiang Tangtang to take it, she took out two duck eggs from under the basket and handed them to her: "This is what your mother-in-law asked me to bring to you, your mother-in-law is not bad to you now, and you will be kind to her in the future." ”
Jiang Tangtang sneered in her heart, if she hadn't pulled out the identity of an immortal disciple for herself, and through the system, the life of the family could be improved, how could the Su family be good to her.
But she wasn't that disgusted. In her opinion, the strongest relationship between people is the exchange of interests.
She responded to Wang with kindness, and fed her another egg, "Mother, you eat some." ”
Wang refused again and again, "No, you can eat it yourself." ”
Jiang Tangtang insisted, "I have two here, and one of us each." ”
Wang couldn't refuse, so he took it.
It was obviously a boiled duck egg, but Wang felt that every bite was sweet.
On the other side, Jiang Lao Wu saw Guo Xinyi following his mother to deliver food, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously cracked.
He walked up to Guo Xinyi in three or two steps, "The road here is not easy to walk, why are you here?" ”
Guo Xinyi's face was flushed, and she said a little shyly: "Just walk slowly." ”
Jiang Lao Wu said: "This is too sunny, don't come next time." No one has cleaned the mountain road here, so it's not good if you encounter a snake on the road. ”
Guo Xinyi glanced at his handsome face, and then shyly moved away and said, "It's okay, I have a stick in my hand, and I heard that you can scare the snake away by knocking it with a stick before leaving." ”
Looking at the way the two got along, Wang's eyes were both satisfied and worried. She wondered in her heart whether to go back today to propose marriage to the Cui family.
Girls care about reputation, watching people get along with their sons, if she doesn't propose in advance, she is ignorant.
Just thinking about Guo Xinyi's identity, she was a little hesitant.
She knows the identities of Cui's mother and daughter. Although Guo Xianling died, she heard that Cui's maiden family was a big merchant of the Jiang family, and the mother and daughter were in trouble.
When a few people returned to Cui's house, her son was not worthy of other people's daughters.
The two of them are not in the right household, but I am afraid that Guo Xinyi will regret it in the future. If she regrets it in the future, she is afraid that her son will be sad.
Thinking that his daughter is out now, Wang asked Jiang Tangtang to come up with an idea, "What do you think of Miss Guo?" ”
Jiang Tangtang naturally also saw Guo Xinyi's relationship with her fifth brother, and she said: "It's better than her sister." But ......" she recalled carefully, and said uncertainly: "I remember that the fifth brother didn't decide to be married?" ”
Jiang Lao Wu is only one year younger than Jiang Lao Si, and according to the memory in his head, Jiang Lao Wu is also a family matter.
Her mother was looking at her daughter-in-law with her fifth brother again, and she didn't know what was going on.
Speaking of Jiang Lao Wuding's family affairs, Wang's face was a little bad, "It was decided before, but then there was a drought and famine, and the girl from the Zhang family came to our house to borrow food."
We saved the family's rations and borrowed 20 catties from her, but I didn't want the girl of the Zhang family to dislike us for borrowing too little. After a few days, we came to the house to borrow it, and we said that the family really couldn't get much, so we said that our family was stingy and wanted to withdraw from the marriage. That's how the marriage is settled. ”
Speaking of which, Zhang Chunhua is still a village of theirs, and she looks at the girl who grew up!
The Wang family never expected that he would look away, and the Zhang family would actually be like this.
It was precisely because she looked away for the first time that she became cautious this time.
Jiang Tangtang comforted: "It is difficult for every family to make a disaster, the girl of the Zhang family borrowed too little food, she is not sensible, this kind of girl has already been calculated." Fifth brother deserves better. ”
"Your fifth brother is just a rough man, and our family ......is like this now" Wang knew that his daughter was comforting himself, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Mother, don't worry, the family will get better and better." Jiang Tangtang said: "Besides, the fifth brother is so good, who is not worthy of it?" That girl from the Zhang family quit the marriage for some food, maybe she is regretting it now! ”
Wang smiled: "In your eyes, your fifth brother is naturally very good. ”
"Mother, I didn't help him talk because I was her sister. Look at the fifth brother, not only is he good-looking, but he is also smart and capable, and he understands the matter of building a lime kiln if I only say it once. With him in charge of the lime kiln, I felt a lot easier. My fifth brother's future will not be small. ”
Wang was coaxed by his daughter's words and smiled, and the sorrow between his eyebrows gradually disappeared.
Jiang Tangtang said seriously: "Mother, if the fifth brother likes the second girl Guo, you will go to kiss him for him, rest assured, our Jiang family will definitely get better and better, and the fifth brother's future will not be small, and he will not be unworthy of her." ”
"I'll ask your fifth brother later."
In this era, the words of the matchmaker are important to the parents, and generally speaking, the parents have the final say in the marriage of children.
However, the Wang family and Jiang's father are quite enlightened, and Jiang Lao Wu's first engagement is not satisfactory, and the Wang family will also take his opinion first.
After lunch, everyone continued to be busy building the lime kiln until it was dark, and the Wang family had time to ask his son, "Are you interesting to Miss Guo?" If the mother is interesting, she will find a matchmaker to talk to her family. If it's boring, you should stay away from other girls, don't ruin the reputation of other girls. ”
Jiang Lao Wu was a little embarrassed, and after a while, he whispered: "Our family doesn't even have a house to live in now, where are we embarrassed to go to the door to say goodbye?" ”
Wang said: "It doesn't matter if you don't have a house, work hard and work hard!" We can always afford to build a house in the future. But if you come and go like this, and don't go to say kiss first, we will be unreasonable. ”
Jiang Lao Wu said: "Let my mother bother." ”
"Stinky boy, say this kind thing to your mother."
Wang turned around and went back to pack a basket of things and carried them to Lu's house. She wanted to ask Su Shi to help go to Cui Shi to find out.
Of course, after experiencing the escape from the famine, the conditions of the Jiang family are not as good as before. In fact, there is nothing to give at home, in addition to food made with wild vegetables, there is also a small crockpot of pheasant soup in the basket.
This was stewed for Wei Ying's milk at night, and she thought that she might go to Lu's house, so she picked out a big chicken leg in advance and put it in a crockpot with a few pieces of chicken.
Su Shi saw what Wang mentioned, and refused: "Mother-in-law, you said that you are too polite." Come here, come here, and carry something. ”
