Liwei ten
After a while, the pedestrians surrounding him dispersed. Lin Xue glanced at Mrs. Zhou and said, "Wang Gui, clean the door well later. It's so dirty."
Wang Gui nodded with a smile and said, "I understand, madam, don't worry, I must have cleaned the door without any stains."
"Well, you'll do it." After saying that, Lin Xue and Wu Ma turned around and planned to go back. The matchmaker Hua hurried over and stopped Lin Xue and said with a pleasing smile, "Madam Li, look at what I told you yesterday, how are you thinking."
Lin Xue was also quite satisfied with the performance of the matchmaker Hua just now, and smiled and said, "I agree. You can let your son come over later. Then someone will naturally arrange a position for him."
The smile on the face of matchmaker Hua became even more sincere, and he said repeatedly, "Madam, if you need help in the future, I will go through fire and water."
"I understand. I will look for you if you have something to do." After that, Lin Xue went in. Li Feng was sitting in the living room for tea. After seeing Lin Xue, he said, "Mom, what's the point of saying you have to say to someone like her? Just just send it to prison. He even dared to fight my sister's idea, and I insisted that she take off her skin."
Lin Xue gave Li Feng a white look and said, "That person is just confused. It's worth the trouble. By the way, why haven't you gone to the government office yet? Is there anything wrong?"
Li Feng put down the teacup and said helplessly, "Mom, I'm going to give up today. Didn't you tell you all yesterday? You forgot again."
Lin Xue patted her forehead and said, "Look at my brain, I don't remember anything when I get busy. I really can't accept my old age."
Li Feng pinched Lin Xue's shoulders and said, "Mom, you are only in your thirties and you are old, so your son still has to be filial to you."
Over there, Mrs. Zhou got up from the ground and limped back home. Zhou Xiao and his father were having breakfast. When they saw Mrs. Zhou, they were shocked and said, "Mom, where did you run early in the morning? How did you make it like this?"
Mrs. Zhou hugged Zhou Xiao and burst into tears. Zhou Zheng frowned and helped his wife up and said, "What happened? Tell me quickly, what's the use of crying."
Mrs. Zhou wiped her tears and said thrusting, "I went to the Li family to propose marriage in the morning. Unexpectedly, they not only refused to agree, but also humiliated my son. I was so angry that I had to go up and fight with them, but it turned out like this."
Zhou Zheng's face sank and said unhappily, "Who asked to go to the Li family to propose marriage? That's the county magistrate's younger sister, can someone like us rise? I think you are asking for it by yourself when you make it like this."
"You unscrupulous bastard." Mrs. Zhou threw herself over Zhou Zheng and scratched her, and said angrily, "My son's place is high, it is obvious that their Li family is high."
Zhou Zheng was so angry that he threw away Mrs. Zhou and walked out. Zhou Xiao calmly helped Mrs. Zhou up and said, "Mom, let's forget it if their family doesn't want it. Could it be that my grand seven-foot man can't marry a wife? A few days ago, the boss of the rice shop said he was kissing, but I think it was their daughter."
Mrs. Zhou's eyes flashed. When the incident happened in the morning, she was not sure whether the boss would even marry her daughter. She said hesitantly, "Mom is not in good health these days. I'll talk about the proposal for marriage in a few days. Xiaoer, don't worry, what you deserve is yours, and I will definitely not be able to escape."
"Okay, mom, please do whatever you want." Zhou Xiao said indifferently. Anyway, it was just for the woman's dowry, so it would be the same for everyone to marry.
Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his son didn't insist, otherwise she really didn't know what to do. As the mother and son were talking, Zhou Xiao came back angrily from outside, kicked open the door and shouted, "Wang Hua, what did you do when you went to the Li family today? Give me a honest explanation, or you'll get back to your parents' home."
Mrs. Zhou was shocked. Could it be that Zhou Zheng knew about what happened in the morning and couldn't help but hold Zhou Xiao's hand and said, "Mr., what are you saying? Why can't I understand?"
"Yes, dad, isn't my mother just going to propose marriage? What else can I do?" Zhou Xiao became more and more confused. Could it be that something I don't know about was happening outside.
Zhou Zheng gasped for a while, pointed at Mrs. Zhou and said, "Xiao'er, do you know what people outside say? They said that if the family married your daughter to you, they would be blind and blind, regardless of their own daughter's life or death."
"Dad, why did this come out?" Zhou Xiao was shocked. It was one thing that he looked down on the girls in the town, but if no one was willing to marry him, what would he do if his future tuition and daily expenses were paid.
"Then you have to ask your mother. She actually took two packs of snacks as a betrothal gift. She also told others that marrying Miss Li is for the dowry. When it is useless, she will have to divorce her." Zhou Zheng said, kicking Mrs. Zhou. How could he marry such a stupid woman?
Zhou Xiao looked at Mrs. Zhou in disbelief and said, "Mom, you are sick in your brain. Can you say such words out there? Now, let alone the ladies of rich families, even girls from small families, may not be willing to marry me."
Mrs. Zhou covered her stomach and said weakly, "Xiao'er, that's not what I said, it's the matchmaker. She must have listened to the instructions of the Li family to deal with us."
Zhou Xiao glared at her fiercely and said angrily, "What should I do now? If the school cannot afford the money, I will be fired."
Mrs. Zhou stood up with the table and said in embarrassment, "Mr., think of a solution. Xiaoer can't be fired from the school. He will have to take the top scorer in the future and become a high-ranking official."
Zhou slapped on the table and said, "What can I do? You have messed up the matter. I think it's impossible to find a marriage for Xiaoer in Qingyang Town. Go to your parents' home to find it. They may not know what we are doing."
Mrs. Zhou looked bitter, but she didn't expect that his son, a scholar, would actually look for a wife in a small countryside.
Zhou Xiao wanted to refuse but could not think of any other way, so he could only lower his head and clench his fists tightly. This shame was brought to him by the Li family. When he has the ability in the future, he must return it ten times a hundred times.
Over there, Lin Xue was discussing Li Lu's problem with Li Feng. It's not the same thing to stay at home all day, so she still has to find someone to get married soon.
Li Feng didn't object, it was just that this candidate was not easy to find. After thinking about it, he said, "Mom, I'll go out and inquire first. My elder sister is in a hurry."
Lin Xue nodded and said, "Then you ask, it's better to find someone who has married a wife, otherwise I'm worried that the two will have conflicts in the future."
Li Feng also felt it made sense and stood up and said, "Mom, I understand. Xiaowen even made an appointment with me for dinner today, so I'll leave first."
"Okay, go, remember to come back early." Lin Xue sent Li Feng away and turned to Yunyun's room. The red wedding dress was neatly placed on the table. Yunyun was practicing embroidery seriously with a handkerchief. Lin Xue walked over and said, "Yunyun, how is the embroidery? Let my mother see."
Yunyun quickly hid the veil back, shook his head and said, "Mom, I'm still practicing. I'm not well embroidered. You can watch it in the future."
Lin Xue touched her hair and said, "Ghost girl, I haven't seen you so diligent before. I really have a sweetheart and everything is different. I think it's better to get you out of the way early so as not to get in the way of my eyes at home."
Yunyun hugged Lin Xue's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, what are you saying? Even if he gets married, he will be your daughter. Could it be that you don't want me anymore?"
Lin Xue smiled and said, "Okay, okay, mom knows. You will marry into the Bai family in three months. At that time, everything depends on yourself. Remember not to be a little tantrum and be filial to your parents-in-law, but don't bear it if you suffer grievances. When you come back, your mother will make the decision for you." Lin Xue said, tears also appeared in her eyes.
Yunyun's eyes turned red, and she threw herself into Lin Xue's arms and said, "Mom, my family doesn't want to get married anymore, I'll be with you and dad at home."
Lin Xue wiped her tears and said, "Silly girl, your father and I are originally a companion, and you need to accompany you there, so you can get married with peace of mind. Just come back more often when you have time."
Yunyun raised her head and said with tears in her eyes, "Mom, I will come back to see you often, as well as my brother, sister-in-law, and little nephew, I will remember it in my heart."
Lin Xue wiped Yunyun's tears with a veil and said, "Okay, silly girl, let's talk about something happy. Do you know what happened in the morning? That Mrs. Zhou was repaired miserably by your mother."
Yunyun stared at her big round eyes and nodded, "Well, Xiao Luo told me, mom, you should have let me go in the morning. Only then did she realize that she was amazing if someone like that had to teach her a lesson."
"I'm almost getting married, and I'm still so violent. What if Xiaowen finds out that he regrets it?" Lin Xue said in a dialect.
Yunyun put his hands on his hips and replied without hesitation, "If he dares, I will ask my brother to put him in prison and be hungry for a few days, hum."
The mother and daughter were chatting happily. Li Qi passed by the door and listened for a while, then turned around and left.
During lunch in the afternoon, Li Lu finally walked out of the room, with no trace of blood on her pale face. She sighed and said, "Lulu, is it worth it to make herself like this for a man? Since you have made up your mind to draw a clear line with him, forget all the unpleasant things."
Li Lu was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Aunt San, you misunderstood. I'm not like this for Yang Jian." After a pause, Li Lu said again, "I will never have a child in my life."
"How is that possible?" Lin Xue opened her eyes wide in disbelief and asked, "Lulu, how did you know."
A hint of hatred flashed in Li Lu's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "It was Yang Jian who told me that I also asked the doctor for a look. The doctor said that I ate too much ice food when I was miscarriage, so there was basically no possibility of getting pregnant."
"Lulu." Lin Xue didn't know what to say for a moment. Nowadays, men marry their wives to continue the family line. Li Lu can't get pregnant now, so she completely lost the possibility of remarrying unless she is willing to marry someone else as a concubine.
Li Lu smiled and said, "I'm fine, Aunt San, I'm completely disappointed with men anyway. At worst, I can live alone in this life, and I'm quite free." Li Lu had known about Lin Xue's desire to let her marry again, and now that this happened, she had lost this thought.
Lin Xue could only nod, hold Li Lu's hand and said, "Lulu, don't be too discouraged. Women are not the only way to get married. You can think about your dreams and then work hard to complete them."
Li Lu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I understand, Aunt San, I will consider this."
Lin Xue had a very uncomfortable meal. At night, she was lying on the couch and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She pushed Li Qi and said, "Original, do you really want this woman if you can't get pregnant? Having a baby is that important."
"Of course it is important. Continuing the family line is a big deal, and you can't be careless at all." Li Qi answered without hesitation.
Lin Xue glared at Li Qi, held the quilt and thought for a while and felt relieved. Even modern people think that having children is a big deal, let alone the ancients.
Seeing Lin Xue ignore him, Li Qi coughed and said, "Xiaoxue, I know you are anxious for Lulu, but we can't do anything. Everything goes with the flow. Maybe Lulu is lucky to meet a man who doesn't care about her children."
"I understand, go to bed, let's talk about what's going on in the future." After that, Lin Xue closed her eyes. Li Qi smiled helplessly and fell asleep after a while.
A few days later, Li Feng came back excitedly from outside, drank a cup of tea and said, "Mom, let me tell you a good news. The little scholar of the Zhou family has been engaged."
Lin Xue's expectant eyes turned into disdain and said unhappy, "What's the point of being happy about him getting engaged? I don't know that the parents are so unintentional and willing to marry their daughter."
Li Feng smiled mysteriously, sat down and said, "Mom, this Zhou Xiucai married this wife, which is a famous figure. Do you still remember the youngest daughter of the Huang family?"
Lin Xue frowned and thought for a while, then sat up and said, "Feng'er, you are talking about the Huang family, who sells oil. Is the Zhou family crazy this time? Even if you don't care about your appearance, it's still a bit aesthetic."
It’s not that Lin Xue was surprised, but that she had the honor to meet Huang Lianlian. Although it was only a few minutes, it left a deep impression on Lin Xue. She was 1.5 meters tall but weighed 180 kilograms, and she was rude and had a unique personality.
Li Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "Mom, what the Zhou family cares most is money, so Mr. Huang only said that there would be a generous dowry, so Mrs. Zhou hurriedly agreed, and didn't even ask what Huang Lian Company looked like. He asked me to say they deserved it. I want to see what wonderful expressions Zhou Xiucai would have on the day of marriage."
Lin Xue narrowed her eyes and looked at Li Feng and said affirmatively, "Feng'er, you're making trouble for this matter, otherwise how could you know so clearly?"
Li Feng shook his head quickly and said, "Mom, this has nothing to do with me. It was all done by Xiaowen. He was so angry that the Zhou family's approach was so he wanted to teach them a lesson."
"Yes, my son-in-law is really good." Lin Xue was very happy and protected her daughter like this before she got married. It seemed that Yunyun didn't have to worry about her future. She grabbed Li Feng and asked, "Feng'er, are the days for those two families determined? I must go and see the fun at that time."
Li Feng sighed helplessly and said, "The day is settled, it's the day after tomorrow. I heard that Zhou Xiucai couldn't even pay the tuition fee, so he was waiting for the bride to enter and use her dowry to supplement the family income."
Lin Xue shook her head and said disdainfully, "I didn't know how this kind of person got into the scholar at the beginning. Although Lianlian has gained a little weight and a bad temper, it's really aggrieved to marry Zhou Xiao."
Li Feng was stunned. Why did his mother's thoughts become weirder every day? Although Zhou Xiao was not good at character, he was at least pretty good. He blinked and said, "Mom, don't worry, do you think Huang Lianlian's temper will suffer? If the Zhou family really dared to plot against Huang Lianlian, they would probably be themselves who were unlucky. Moreover, Xiaowen told the Huang family about the Zhou family, but the Huang family..."
Although Li Feng didn't finish his words, Lin Xue understood that Huang Lianlian was seventeen years old this year and hadn't come to propose marriage, I'm afraid the Huang family would have been anxious, so it would be a surprise to catch Zhou Xiao. As for character, it's perfect.
Over there, the Zhou family has always been full of joy since they got engaged. Mrs. Zhou also sighed from time to time that there is always a way out. Although the Huang family is not as good as the Li family, they are rich at least. What they lack the most now is this thing.
The Zhou family started to buy betrothal gifts and decorate the house in a hurry. Of course, all the money was given by the Huang family. Otherwise, if the Zhou family really brought two packs of snacks to the door, the embarrassing thing would be their Huang family.
A few days passed in a flash. On the day of the wedding, Zhou Xiao dressed up as a man and went to the Huang family. After a sound of gongs and drums, the bride came out with the help of everyone. Looking at the huge figure under the red veil, Zhou Xiao was stunned. He took two steps back and pulled the matchmaker and asked, "Who is this person?"
The matchmaker glanced at him strangely and said, "Miss Huang, I said to the groom, please get on the horse quickly. This will be a bad thing if you miss the auspicious time."
After getting on the horse, Zhou Xiao rode back in a dizzy way. Huang Lianlian's huge body shape kept popping up in his mind. A voice in his mind kept telling himself that he must have read it wrong, yes, he must have read it wrong.
With this idea in mind, the sedan chair finally arrived at the Zhou family smoothly. Zhou Xiao hurriedly ran down and stood next to the sedan chair. This time he must keep his eyes open and see clearly. Sure enough, the bride was still so fat after she got down. Zhou Xiao looked like she was worse than death, thinking in her heart that she had made a mistake.
Although the people around him were curious about the bride being so fat, they didn't say anything. Zhou Xiao walked in desperately with Huang Lianlian. The matter has developed so far that he can't resist. Even if the bride is a pig today, he still has to marry.
