Chapter 429 Good marriage

The first update of the New Year, please download pink txt.

****……………****

Lian Man'er looked down at the little baby girl inside the quilt. The baby girl looked very thin, and her exposed face was almost the same as when the cat Dahua first arrived at her house. She looked up at Zhao Xiu'e, but her face was rosy, and she was a little richer than when she left Sanshiliyingzi.

When Zhao Xiu'e was pregnant, she always said that she must be the first great-grandson of the Lian family in her belly. She was arrogant and blessed at that time. Now she has given birth to a thin baby girl, and someone wants to show her face, but Lian Man'er thinks it is normal.

This has nothing to do with favoring boys over girls.

Zhao Xiu'e pulled Zhang to complain.

"...I'm sure how much I eat, but I almost counted the rice in your bowl......The family of people live in these few rooms, which was spacious before they were at home......I hired one to cook and one to cook, and used our family as a mess."

"On the dining table, half of the fine grains and half of the coarse grains, we will let us eat coarse grains. When it's cold, we have to burn some firewood, and we have to ask for it three or five times... I just hold it in this big yard and don't let us go out. I will tell you that it will have a bad impact on his uncle, and I will make any comments or something." He also complained, "We five are crowded in that small house, and there is not even a place to turn over."

"My daughter is pitiful," Zhao Xiu'e's mother sighed, "No one family can raise their first child well. When I came here yesterday, I saw that there was cold soup and cold water. There was no oil in the soup. The water in the basin was frozen and ice. The family hired people to serve. No matter how they called it, they couldn't call it. Every day, they still had to look at the eyes."

"This is not the reason for blooming first and then bearing fruit. This is the girl. There is the next one." Zhao Xiu'e's sister-in-law said.

"What's wrong with me? She gave birth to a girl too. Read the full text of the big grandma's style. Her girl is inlaid with gold. I'm not the seed of the old Lian family. Who would laugh at her? Don't think I don't know, how can she wish behind her back... I'm obviously a kid in my belly, but I'm a girl after I was born. I don't know if she used any evil tricks..."

Several people complained constantly, and Zhang and Lian Man'er just listened and couldn't talk.

"His second uncle, Erlang and others, didn't find an errand?" Zhang asked.

If several male men in the family find errands, they can receive some silver and rice, plus Lian Shouren's salary and extra money. Even if they have a larger population, their lives will be better.

"What an errand, I just follow his uncle every day and have no money." He said.

"It's not that I'm not capable yet." Zhao Xiu'e glanced in the direction of the upstairs. "He is also a county magistrate. In this county, except for the magistrate, he is the biggest. Not to mention arranging a few people, he is just a hundred and eighty-year-old. Isn't that like playing? That's great. He said that he's arranged an errand, but he's arranged anything. He just swept the streets in front of the yamen, and he can't afford to lose that person."

"Yes, there is no good job. I didn't run away from the hard work." He said, spitting on the ground.

Zhao Xiu'e looked at He and her eyes stood up.

He shrank for a moment, wriggled his lips, and turned his head away with guilt.

When Lian Man'er heard Zhao Xiu'e say this, she couldn't help but feel moved.

What Lian Shouren did as a county magistrate is in name but not real?

Zhao Xiu'e was exaggerating, but it is really not difficult to arrange a few people to serve as a county magistrate. Why can't even Shouren do it? Don't want to do it?

It should be impossible. Letting Lian Shouren and Erlang take part in the job can be used as his eyes and eyes, and also increase the family's income. Lian Shouren has no reason not to be willing.

That's not the ability to do it.

Lian Man'er remembered the general situation of county government offices that Wu Yugui said. The magistrate is naturally the top leader and in charge of government affairs. The county magistrate, as the assistant of the magistrate, has a lot of flexibility in the scope of power. If the magistrate delegates power, the county magistrate has power. If the magistrate does not delegate power and controls it tightly, then the magistrate can be nothing.

Wu Yugui also said that if this county magistrate is not good, he is just an angry official.

Even Shouren can’t even arrange his brothers and nephews. Wouldn’t that mean he can’t afford to eat in Taicang County and has no right?!

"Aunt Four, Man'er." At this time, I heard Jiang greeting outside, "The meal is ready, please come to the room for dinner."

"Oh." Zhang agreed and said goodbye to Lian Man'er.

The dining table was placed on a short kang in the main hall. Gu stood under the kang to direct the kang. Jiang and a woman with a silk handkerchief wrapped around her head served the meal and set it on the table. Then, Zhang, Wulang, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi were invited to the kang for dinner.

Jiang stood under the kang and served some rice for Zhang's mother. The rice was rice. The woman with a silk handkerchief wrapped around her head served the meal, but did not leave, but just stepped back slightly and stopped.

Lian Man'er couldn't help but look at the woman, and looked at her mother with her eyes drippingly.

The woman was about twenty-six or seven years old, and she was less than thirty years old, and had a flat head and a straight face. When Lian Man'er saw her, the woman lowered her head, but she didn't look panicked.

"Sister Ping, you don't need to do this anymore. You go down." Gu said to the woman.

The woman then agreed and retreated.

"I've been busy these two days and the food is not well prepared. I'll put it on first, and there will be good food tonight."

After serving some food for Zhang's mother, Gu and Jiang said they had to go out if they had something to do, so they only invited He to come and accompany them.

The rice has no aroma when you enter the mouth, and it looks like it has not been ground in finely ground. Four dishes and one soup are also very common dishes, but the ones are delicious.

"Second uncle," Lian Man'er chatted with He, "What did you do when you just wiped that sister-in-law Ping?"

"She," He was a chatty man. He kept it in this yard every day, and no one chatted with her, so even Man'er asked her, she knew everything. "It was just a kitchen and cooking... she was a widow. Her man used to be a worker in the county government office. She died of illness, and she was not in a position. The county magistrate lived here before, and she was also cooking."

"How is it? Is the food OK?" He asked.

"It's okay." Lian Man'er nodded.

"The same ingredients we make will taste the same as the water of the pot, and the other person makes it, it will taste the same as the taste of the same." He said authentically.

Lian Man'er thought to herself. It seems that the relationship between He and this lady Ping should be good.

"His second uncle, who is Xiu'er married?" Zhang asked He. "He wrote to us, saying that he was an official family. He didn't say anything else..."

When they came here, Zhou's attitude could not talk about this topic, so Zhang asked He.

He seemed to be energetic all of a sudden, so he simply sat on the kang and said it was open.

"...The Zheng family is a large family in Taicang County. There are twenty or thirty officials in the family. The whole family is full of people and their land. This magistrate, who has to nod and bow when he sees the Zheng family. He can't even sit still if he doesn't let his official position."

"... The one I told Xiu'er was the young master of Master Zheng San's family. Master Zheng San had also been an official before, but now he is old, he is at home to support him. He is a young master, oh, you haven't seen him. He looks handsome than a big girl."

"Then Mr. Zheng, how old is this year?" Zhang asked.

"I heard from the matchmaker that he is a rat. He is sixteen years old this year. I heard that he is studying now. He will be a scholar next year. In another year, he will be a juren." He said with a smile.

"I'm the same age as my brother Xing." Lian Man'er said.

"That's true, that's pretty good." Zhang said.

"That's not just good." He said, "This young master Zheng is Mr. Zheng's old son, but he is rich. His brothers have already started a family, and some of them are about the same age as him. You can spend money on him. Xiu'er married now, but she fell into a lucky nest."

"Who told me about this marriage?" Zhang asked again.

"It's the official matchmaker Hu Mama in the county government." He said, and then showed a mysterious expression, "But, I heard that this family was attracted to his young master."

"Ah, what's going on?" Lian Man'er asked with a curious expression appropriately.

"Isn't this the day? Xiu'er and the others finally went to the back garden to stroll, and by chance, the magistrate invited the guests that day, and Mr. Zheng and his young master were there. After dinner, they also strolled in the garden, and they met."

"Oh that day, we saw Mr. Zheng first. We didn't know him, and we thought the old man came from, Bai Maodi was so sad. After leaving, Xiu'er scolded him a few words. He was not angry either. Later, the young master Zheng came and looked at Xiu'er, and his eyes couldn't be moved away." He laughed loudly when he said this.

"After two days, Mom Hu came to the door to kiss. If you say such a good family, it will be done." He said the mouth was flying.

"Young Master Zheng is not old, why is the wedding schedule so tight?" Zhang asked again.

"He is not old, and his father is old." He said, "Young Master Zheng said that while his father is still strong, he has to marry a wife and respect his father. Listen, what a filial child. It's just right to get married early. Isn't our old lady anxious? This is a heart-wrenching problem."

…………

When he went to the landlord's house, Zhou was talking to Lian Lan'er.

"This person is fate. Xiu'er is fate." Zhou said to Lian Lan'er while fiddling with a ruler, "I didn't make any of the couples I mentioned at home. At that time, I was quite anxious. Who would have thought that Xiu'er's marriage was here and there. If you come here, it would be the right thing to do. Nothing else is worth it just for Xiu'er's business."

"Mom, are you very happy with this marriage?" Lian Lan'er's eyes were a little hesitant and asked in a low voice.

Zhou looked down at the ruler in his hand, but did not look at Lian Lan'er, so he did not see Lian Lan'er's strange gaze.

"If you want to be happy, this is not perfect." Zhou said, "Xiu'er is not young anymore, so I didn't choose any more... The family is good. Xiu'er got married and just asked someone to serve her... There is no mother-in-law on her... A few concubines, and that's not considered serious mother-in-law..."
