Xiao Qiulan took out the long cigarette holder she bought for her grandfather, and Uncle Yao was so happy that he didn't forget to ask her: "Tell grandpa the reason, why are you not satisfied with this family business?" ”
Grandpa is an old antique, and he is kind to their sisters, Xiao Qiulan boldly said what was in his heart: "First, he has been sick since he was a child, and he didn't go out of the three-step door, I think people have money or not, health is the most important." ”
Old Uncle Yao nodded: "Health is the most important, this sentence is very reasonable, however, you can rest assured, Aunt Xiu's reputation is still very good, she will never blow nonsense as a matchmaker, since she said that the young master of the Li family is all well, then it must be better." ”
Xiao Qiulan opened her mouth, what if she wanted to say it? Many diseases will recur!
Thinking that this sentence was not very kind, she said the second reason: "He asked a matchmaker to kiss, which is a bit inexplicable, we have never met, and we are not a good match." ”
Old Uncle Yao said: "If you haven't seen him, it doesn't mean that he hasn't seen you. ”
In fact, many men choose a daughter-in-law, they will put a woman's appearance first, Qiuqiu is a beauty embryo at a glance, and she grows up to be the same as her grandmother, it is not an exaggeration to say that the country and the city are captivated, these words Lao Yao Bo did not say.
Well, there is a little bit of truth in what Grandpa said, and she said the third and most important reason: "He is so much older than me, and when I grow up, he will definitely have women, maybe there will be children, I would rather be poor, than intrigue with other women to rob my husband!" ”
Xiao Qiulan's thoughts, Lao Yao Bo is a little dissatisfied, capable men have three wives and four concubines, and women should be virtuous and virtuous.
But he didn't scold her, changed his angle, and said in a somewhat tough tone: "If you think like this now, you may not think like this when you grow up, so this matter will be talked about when you grow up, and you are not allowed to make trouble in the future, and you are not allowed to say anything that is not satisfied with this family business!" ”
Xiao Qiulan was sullen and walked out of her grandfather's room, grandpa was a man in ancient times, a veritable antique, he himself had two wives, and what kind of monogamy he talked to him about was simply looking for scolding.
Back in the room, Wang Dali whispered: "You said that this young master of the Li family, could it be the young man you saw in Nanshan?" ”
Xiao Qiulan was stunned for a moment, and then said affirmatively: "Absolutely not, that young man is wearing finely made silk clothes, and his bearing is extraordinary, I think he is not the son of a rich businessman, or the son of an official eunuch, his attendant, at first glance, is a martial artist, a sick young master of the landlord's family, how can there be that kind of style!" ”
Xiao Qiulan was married, Wang Dali felt uncomfortable inexplicably, and now when she heard her praise the young man, she was unhappy, and she was silent and did not speak.
Xiao Donglan had already gone to herd the cattle, the sun was still high from the ground, and it was still very early for dinner, so Mrs. Chen instructed Yao Zhiqiang: "The peanut sprouts on the top of the hill have been cut a lot by long-legged birds, go and tie some straw men to scare them." ”
"Hmm." Yao Zhiqiang agreed and went to the side room to get dry straw.
The bored Wang Dali said that he would go too, and when he saw that Xiao Qiulan was sullen, he pulled her away.
Mrs. Chen wanted to say something and couldn't help it, there were guests, and thinking of the wedding ceremony she received yesterday, she decided to let Xiao Qiulan go.
When the three of them arrived at the top of the hill, there were a lot of long-legged birds eating the young shoots in the field.
Yao Zhiqiang took out the knife he carried, cut some small branches to make an adult frame, tied the dry straw he brought, and quickly tied it into a small scarecrow.
He stuck it in the ground, tied rags to the scarecrow's hands, and when the wind blew and the hunt sounded, the long-legged bird did not dare to come any closer.
