Chapter 340 Whose little children
Second update, please pink.
***……………***
Lian Man'er looked around and saw that the closest ones to her were Lian Ye'er, Erya, Chunyan and Chunni, and the other little girls were either talking by themselves or running to pick wild flowers to play with, and their attention was not on them.
Erya is a relative of the Lian family, Chunyan and Chunni are close to the Lian family, and they all know many things about the Lian family.
"It's not decided yet." Lian Man'er replied in a low voice.
Since Lian Zhi'er got married, Zhou has become more concerned about Lian Xiu'er's marriage. He is anxious and has long spoken out to ask someone to come to the door to talk about marriage. Lian Shouren donated the prison student and said that there would be an official soon, so someone came to Lian Xiu'er to talk about marriage.
The current supervisor, the future official's dear sister, has a lot of dowry, and the girl is talking about a good age. These things combined are very good conditions in the eyes of many people.
"Is that the one from Liujia Village not good?" Erya asked again.
The day before yesterday, matchmaker Wang came to Lian Xiu'er and said to her relatives. She was talking about a wealthy family in Liujia Village. The family also had two hundred acres of land, a large courtyard like the Lian family, with three sons and four daughters. She told Lian Xiu'er that the eldest family was the eldest, who was seventeen years old, and was said to have excellent appearance and character.
"Your second aunt said no," Lian Man'er shook her head and said.
Erya's second aunt is Zhou. This family in Liujia Village lives a very good life and the whole family is honest. Even the old man is very optimistic about this marriage. Even Shouxin and Zhang heard about it, he thought it was very good. However, Zhou did not like it.
"My mother-in-law is too young. There are two younger brothers and four girls below. If you marry into it, you will be a big year for a cow and a horse. ... There are a lot of land, but it is still a farmer. If he doesn't do it well, he will have to let you go down to the land or something."
This is what Zhou said to Lian Man'er privately, and was accidentally heard by Lian Man'er.
My daughter doesn't want her to serve her mother-in-law and help her younger siblings. She gets married to her daughter-in-law, but she always thinks about how to control her and help her. She never wants her to be someone else's daughter.
Tsk tsk, Lian Man'er couldn't help but shake her head when she heard it. Zhou's double standards were really speechless.
"Erya, didn't your mother tell me one to my aunt yesterday?" Lian Man'er said to Erya.
"Well. My mother said it was not possible when she went back, but my second aunt didn't want it." Erya said.
Erya's mother, Wu Yuchang's wife. She told Lian Xiu'er that a scholar in the town. This scholar is twenty-two years old this year. He once married a family and has passed away, so he plans to renew his marriage. The scholar has parents in his family. They are all over fifty years old. There are brothers and sisters above the scholar, and there are brothers and sisters below. Both brothers and sisters and brothers have already started a family. The family relies on a few acres of thin land. There is also this scholar selling his name and building a restaurant for a living.
Wu Yuchang's wife said this family was a relative. Although this scholar became a relative, he did not leave any child or a daughter in the first house. Even Xiu'er married her and married her. Moreover, the scholar was very literary and characterful, and she was very likely to be in high school in the future.
Mr. Lian likes this marriage very much, and Lian Shouxin and Zhang find out. He also thinks that Lian Xiuer can marry a scholar, which is quite a success.
But Zhou was not happy and almost fell down in front of Wu Yuchang's wife.
"My Xiu'er is a young girl. She is missing anything and wants to fill in a house for someone? He is a scholar. My eldest son is still the same as a prison student." After sending Wu Yuchang's wife away, Zhou said immediately.
Of course, this is not the whole reason why she rejected this marriage. Zhou despised this marriage because the scholar's family lived a poor life.
"A whole family, nearly ten people, can do whatever the acres of land can rely on his teaching money. Life is tight, he still has to study, take exams, and so on. Even if Xiu'er has not lived a good life at home, she has never suffered any hardships. Whatever she does, she will follow him to suffer the crime. Whatever she says, wait for him to pass the imperial examination and become a wife. Then, in the year of the monkey and horse, some scholars can't pass the exam in their lifetime."
Several people who asked about kissing were sent by Zhou to use various excuses. Everyone knows that Lian Xiuer has high conditions, so few people come to the door to say kissing.
"What kind of thing does his nanny want to find for Xiu'er?" Zhang said privately.
"I think my breasts are looking for someone better than the Wu family for my aunt. She wants to find someone better than the Wu family." Lian Man'er said.
After rejecting several marriages, Lian Man'er figured out the standards that Zhou had set for Lian Xiu'er. The family background was rich, Lian Xiu'er didn't have to work after marrying, and the family's population was simple. This was based on the conditions of the Wu family. In addition, Zhou also wanted the other party's family status to be higher, and ordinary farmers could not catch Zhou's eyes.
"You just pick too many kids. The scholar and the one from Liujia Village are all pretty good. This is really a loan from your uncle and others. Otherwise, such a family would not be able to propose marriage." Zhang said.
"I've got a lot of reputation out of this, and I'm scared when I come to propose marriage. His grandfather has never twisted his breasts before." Lian Shouxin heard the mother and the other two talked and said.
"His mama has other thoughts in her heart." Zhang said, then pointed in the direction of Jinyang County, "Will his mama send a message to his aunt and ask Xiu'er to find it in the county."
Zhou hoped that Lian Man'er would find a good family in the county for Lian Xiu'er. Of course, Lian Man'er could not tell Erya about this.
"My aunt is not old yet, so I'll take it on my shoulders, and I'm not in a hurry." Lian Man'er said to Erya.
"Your aunt is not in a hurry. I think your Ya'er seems to be in a hurry?" Erya covered her mouth and smiled.
"What?" Lian Man'er was a little puzzled.
"Isn't it just that the Dragon Boat Festival has just passed," Chunyan continued with a smile, "Your second uncle led Lian Ya'er to travel to several houses, and she wanted someone to say kinship to Lian Ya'er. She said she was like Sister Zhi'er, get engaged first, and get married for the rest of the year before getting married."
Lian Man'er said oh. A few days ago, Chunzhu's wife came to visit her and muttered mysteriously with Zhang for a long time, as if she was talking about this.
"Ya'er is only two months younger than Man'er. It's too early to talk about marriage." After Chunzhu's wife left, Zhang said to Lian Shouxin, "Yesterday, his second uncle sat with me for a long time, saying that Ya'er is so good, her feet are wrapped around her, and she wants to marry a wealthy family. She keeps asking what Jiaxing gave during the holidays, and she wants to see everything. Look, she is jealous of those things, thinking of making a marriage for Ya'er early, and she can also get gifts from her son-in-law during the holidays."
"I heard that your second uncle and second uncle have a crush on Xibao from the old Jin family." Erya lowered her voice a little further and said to Lian Man'er.
Lian Man'er was chewing the acid leaves picked by Lian Ye'er in her mouth, and almost choked after hearing this.
Erya is about the same age as her, but she is just when she is confused, but she has already started to pay attention to certain topics. Well, in this era, there are few entertainments for farmers. This kind of thing is from eighty to eight years old, regardless of gender, and is the most popular topic.
Lian Man'er swallowed the sour water of the sour leaves into her stomach, and then asked Erya.
"Eya, who did you hear this? Why don't we know at all?"
"That's Ya'er's father, your second uncle. He came to my house to find my father and wanted my father to go to Lao Jin's house to make peace." Erya hesitated for a moment before saying.
"Then have your father told me?" Lian Man'er asked again.
"It seems... I didn't go. My father said, your grandfather would definitely not agree to join the old Jin family." Erya said.
It seems that Wu Yuchang is really a smart person.
"Erya, when did this happen? I mean, my second uncle asked your father to tell you about this matter. Is it the past few days?" Lian Man'er thought about it and asked again.
"It's been a few days, it's not the case these days." Erya said.
Lian Man'er said oh, thinking to himself, that's what happened before Lian Shouren donated to the prison student. I wonder if Lian Shouyi still likes the old Jin family now.
At this time, all the little girls playing on the side came over.
"Why didn't you see Sister Zhi'er go down to the ground?" The little girl who spoke at the beginning asked again, "Man'er, Sister Zhi'er gets engaged, will she not go down to the ground?"
The few girls laughed like a bunch of laughter. They didn't laugh at each other, but talked about marriage and being shy and curious.
"My sister is doing needlework at home." Lian Man'er said, then pointed to a slightly older girl in a flower shirt and smiled, "Xiaomei, I heard that your mother has made a kiss for you."
The girl named Xiaomei immediately turned red, and the others surrounded her, pestering Xiaomei to ask this and that, and laughing and making fun.
…………
When she got home, Lian Man'er called her own chickens to her, threw a few strings of grasshoppers into the flock, and let them rush to eat them by themselves. Then she entered the house.
Lian Zhier was sitting on the kang and putting on the soles of her shoes. When she saw her coming in, she pointed to the kettle placed on the cabinet.
"I'm back, are you thirsty? I'll give you cold water. It's time to drink it now." Lian Zhi'er said to Lian Man'er.
"Yeah." Lian Man'er poured a glass of water, drank it himself, poured another cup and handed it to Lian Zhi'er.
"Sister, there is nothing wrong with the family in the morning, right?" Lian Man'er asked.
"It's nothing." Lian Zhi'er said.
Lian Shouren donated the prison student, the Song family sent money, and Lian Xiu'er came to propose marriage. The Lian family has had a good weather these days, and even the frequency of Zhou's scolding has decreased a lot. Zhao Xiu'e no longer always provoked Jiang's family like she used to, and the Lian family's life was rare and peaceful.
When the family was fine, Lian Man'er went to the breakfast shop, calculated the accounts in the morning, and went to the riverside. The canal was almost completed, and Lian Shouxin was taking a few people to finish it.
After lunch in the shop, Lian Man'er returned to the old house. When he dared to enter the village, he saw dark clouds pressing against the top of the house. The rumbling thunder seemed to be wiping against the ground.
It was about to change the sky, Lian Man'er raised her legs and wanted to run away, but was blocked by someone.
"Lien Man'er."
