"Woooooooooo Wow......"

Approaching, in the midst of the lively and noisy scene, the faint crying in the courtyard made the sister and brother realize it at the same time.

Something must have happened at home......

"Wait!"

Hua Shi stopped Hua Yu, who was about to break into the crowd, and stuffed the pheasant in his hand and the basket containing the black cat into his hand.

"What are you doing?!"

Hua Yu frowned and was reluctant to take these two things.

The corners of Huashi's mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were flashing, with a hint of anxiety, and he said, "What else can I do, don't you look at what time it is, you are rushing back now, aren't you looking for scolding?" And what can you do when you go back? Waiting to be scolded together? ”

Her words are reasonable, and every word is heart-wrenching.

Hua Yu pursed her lips silently, stubbornly not saying a word, and still refused to take it.

"Okay, take the things, find a place and wait, and come back when it's almost dark, and the soybeans in the field don't need to be watered anymore, and the pheasant can't be seen by the milk, otherwise you won't have to eat it."

I'll go back and see what's going on, if Ah Xiao and the others do something to make the milk angry, I can still persuade you, you go back and wait to be scolded together, don't ask for it. ”

Hua Shi insisted on stuffing things into his hands, and he didn't care about his reluctance, so he crossed the crowd of onlookers and squeezed in towards the courtyard gate.

Hua Yu's frowning brows never let go, and he watched the back disappear from sight, but there was nothing he could do.

Of course, he knew that what Hua Shi said was reasonable, and now that he was in the field, he usually went to work in the fields, and he would not get home until the earliest.

If he runs back now regardless of it and is seen by the Li family, it will only add fuel to the fire and be useless......

…

"Yo-yo...... What are you crying about? This is a big day, and it's not good to cry like this and cry away all the blessings......"

When he stepped into the threshold, he heard the voice of a hoarse old woman.

When I raised my eyes, I saw an old woman with a big red flower on her head and a big red gown, sitting at the table.

And Li's face froze, he didn't know what was in the way, he wanted to smile or not, and his face was very embarrassed.

On the opposite side of the Li family, there was an old woman who looked familiar, as if it was the grandmother of the Xie family......

The one she carried down the mountain that day......

Hua Xiao and Hua Li, the two sisters and brothers hugged each other, sat on the ground, cried profusely, and threw a broom not far away.

As if she had just been beaten by Li's family, Hua Xiao cried so much that her face was covered with tears and snot.

Hua Li also buried his head, as if he was sobbing faintly, but the cry was not so loud......

"Oops! This is the eldest girl, I'm back! It's just in time! ”

The woman with a big red flower on her head and a wrinkled smile on her face stood up and waved at her when she saw the flower standing at the gate of the courtyard.

Hua Shizheng breathed a sigh of relief, and before he could figure out the situation in front of him, he was pulled in by a woman who came in three or two steps, one hand, and dragged in.

She felt uneasy, and before she could ask, she was pressed down on the bench by the woman.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the woman say happily, "The eldest girl is really good-looking, and she is seventeen this year, which is a little old, but it is just right." ”

Hua Shi was stared at by her eyes, and his hair stood up, and he turned his head to subconsciously look at Li Shi with a gloomy face on the side, and shouted, "Milk ......"

The woman circled around her, and with a pair of hands pinched her shoulders, so sore, that she almost jumped up, and the woman said with a smile,

"It's a little thin, but it's good to raise it, hey, look at my memory, the eldest girl just came back from outside, I don't know yet, I am a matchmaker, your grandmother is telling you kiss, this is the mother-in-law of the in-laws......"

Before Mrs. He could speak, Hua Shi was so frightened by her words that he jumped up, looking horrified.

"Matchmaker...?"

Say pro?!

Hua Shi looked at Li Shi in astonishment and shouted hesitantly, "Milk? ”

Li's mood was already extremely bad, and when he saw the gaze cast by the flower, he looked at the smiling Mrs. He and the old woman surnamed Xie.

Thinking of the old woman's words threatening her, Li weighed the pros and cons in his heart for a long time, and exhaled angrily and annoyedly, and his obscure eyes swept over the old woman Xie who was sitting on the other side.

hated itchy, slowly eased his breath, and then said, "Ah Shi is still young, I have hurt her for more than ten years, and I am reluctant to ......let her marry so early."

Xie Shi turned his head sideways and glanced at Mrs. He, who received a look and immediately understood what she meant, pinched the handkerchief and threw it at Li, smiling,

"What's small! It's seventeen, and I'm not married, and I'll be an old girl in two years, and no one wants it, seventeen is still a little old, Aunt Lianxin shouldn't be confused, this is a matter that has delayed the eldest daughter's life, but it can't be sloppy. ”

A large part of Mrs. He's words blocked what Li was going to say.

Xie Shi, who had not spoken, coughed lightly and raised his eyes to look at Li.

The two old women, who were over half a hundred years old, glanced at each other, and the smell of gunpowder was full of inside.

Li saw the naked threat in the old woman's eyes.

Xie Shi said in a low voice, "Lianxin, don't be confused......

Li Shi had a calm face, not knowing what he thought, he suddenly raised his eyes, glared at Hua Shi who was full of confusion on the side, and said in a voice that was not hurried,

"Ah Shi is my most precious eldest granddaughter, if your Xie family wants to marry her, it's not impossible, take out five taels of silver as a dowry, and I will agree to this family business."

Seeing her relieved, the smile on her face was full of smiles, and she was about to open her mouth to respond, when she heard her lion's big words.

"Five taels of silver?!" Mrs. He stared at her eyes and was shocked.

Li's face didn't move, but he sneered in his heart, "Five taels of silver, there's no need to discuss." ”

Xie's face sank for a moment, and he looked at the proud old pious woman, and cursed in his heart.

Mrs. He hurriedly persuaded, "Five taels of silver is too much, whoever marries a girl in the village will ask for five taels of silver when he opens his mouth, and one tael of silver is almost the same, and it is not a golden pimple......"

Li's attitude was extremely resolute, no matter what the matchmaker said, she refused to let go, and her old face was tightened.

Mrs. He wanted to say something, but Xie raised her hand to block it, so she stopped and continued to persuade, but she couldn't help muttering, "... This is a girl for sale......"

Although Xie's face was not very good, he was still very comfortable when he looked at the old pious woman's appearance.

I saw her nodding, "Yes, five taels of silver, the date will be set on the second day of the Lunar New Year." ”

As soon as she said it, the Li family, who was still a little proud, heard this, and her face distorted again.

She still watched so many people watching, no matter how ugly her face was, she didn't shake her face, and when she heard that she was going to pick people up on the second day of the Lunar New Year, her face was completely gloomy.

"Nope."

Li refused.

Mrs. He was about to say something nice, when she heard Li's calm refusal, and she muttered a few curses in her heart.

She has been a matchmaker for others for more than ten years, and it is the first time she has encountered a hard nail that is standing and standing, and she says that if she changes her face, she will change her face......

Li Shi received the warning gaze from Xie Shi, frowned unhappily, endured not sending it out, and said with an abacus, "Wait for the beginning of spring, wait for the beginning of spring and pick a good day, during the New Year, the snow is slippery, and it is not easy to do a wedding wine, or the weather will warm up in the spring, by the way, first give two taels of silver as a deposit." ”

Seeing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Xie Shi no longer continued to hold on, and nodded, which was considered to be a response.

Let's start spring when spring begins, and I'm not in a hurry to do it......

Seeing that the two sides had reached a consensus, Mrs. He clapped her hands and laughed happily.

…

When Xie left with Mrs. He, the villagers watching outside the courtyard watched the excitement for a while, and finally left satisfied......

In the small courtyard of the Hua family, the atmosphere is terrifyingly quiet.

The second half of the flower stood in place, unable to insert a word, listening to the three women, hastily, and set her family affairs......

"Milk, I don't want to get married."

Half ringing, Hua Shi said.

As soon as Li Shi heard her words, he was so angry, but now it was more like being ignited and exploded all at once.

"I don't care if you want to or not, whether you want to, if you don't want to, let you marry you, you can't make the decision!"

Li roared a little angrily.

Hua Shi didn't know what Li Shi thought, and the half-angry words behind her were almost giving her a death sentence.

This is feudal antiquity, and the village is even more patriarchal who pays attention to the clan surname, and the juniors have no right to speak in front of the elders.

Especially for women, the orders of their parents, the words of matchmakers, marriage is not something that you can decide at all......

When I spend it, my mind is a little messy, and for a while, my mood is also messy.

At first, she was tired of Lee's discipline of her, and she was angry and moody at every turn, and although she intended to escape, she also knew that it was not so easy.

The Li family is her elder, as long as she is still in this huge Shoushan village, she will not be able to resist the Li family at all.

Although I had thought about it before, the only way to avoid it was to get married, but as soon as this idea came up, she denied it.

Let's not talk about who she married, I don't know who she is, not to mention what the situation of her in-law's family is, and she doesn't want to hastily entrust herself because of the Li family.

If the person she marries does not agree with her three views, she wants to do what she wants to do in the future, she has to go through her husband's consent, and she can't help herself......

Taking the time to think about it makes me feel suffocating.

Wait a minute......

If Grandma Xie comes to kiss, then the person she wants to marry won't be Xie Mingchi, right......?

Thinking of meeting a few times, Xie Mingchi's face was impatient and undisguised disgust......

Flower time: "......"

When Li scolded Hua for a while, he suddenly stood up, walked over to pick up the broom on the ground, and hit Hua Xiao and Hua Li who were sitting on the ground.

"Smack! Smack—"

The broom head knocked on Hua Xiao's back at once, and the two sisters and brothers didn't react, so they were beaten by Li Shi when they raised the broom.

"Wow! Woowoo woo ......"

The two of them, who finally stopped crying, were beaten twice by Li, and they were about to burst into a tragic cry.

"Wow! Wow wow...... Stop it! Milk! Stop it... Woowoo...... I was wrong! ”

Hua Xiao knelt on the ground, tugging on Li's broom head with both hands, crying and begging for mercy.

"Wrong? Do you know it's wrong? Don't you like to talk nonsense everywhere! Talking nonsense about everything! Yes? I'll make you talkative! Makes you mouth more! ”

Li was so angry that his old face was hideous.

Pulling the broom out of her hand hard, Hua Xiao let go of her hand painfully, and Li raised the broom and waved it at her......

"Milk, what are you doing, stop fighting!"

It took time to blink an eye, and Li took a broom to beat the twins to tears, and the two curled up on the ground, crying.

Hua Shi hurriedly grabbed Li's hand and stopped her from continuing to beat people.

It's really bad......

Before she could react, she was sold by the Li family for five taels of silver, and the Li family started beating people again......

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Wow......"

Hua Xiao and Hua Li were both hugging each other, and Hua Xiao almost subconsciously protected Hua Li, blocking his wrist that was not yet perfect.

An exposed arm was bruised and bruised.

One by one, swollen blood marks, thin and small arms, covered with scars, looking a little hideous......
