Man Bao watched the matchmaker and the Yao family go away, turned around and ran back to the main room to look for her mother, "Mother, will she be my fourth sister-in-law from now on?"
Zhou Zhoulang, who also returned to the house, also pricked up his ears to listen.
Qian looked up at the expression on the fourth child, and then asked her, "Do you like her?"
Man Bao scratched his head and said, "It's not that I marry a wife, so I have to like it?"
Qian Shi nodded, looked at Zhou Zhoulang, and asked, "What about you, do you like it?"
Zhou Zhoulang blushed and said, "I listen to mother."
Qian thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid this marriage will not work out."
The redness on Zhou Zhoulang's face faded, he raised his head to look at his mother, almost crying, he pursed his lips and asked, "Is it because their family hates me?"
Just now Fang asked about gambling.
"No," Qian Shi didn't want to explain too much, but seeing Zhou Zhoulang's complexion, he knew that he wanted to go wrong, so he explained: "I think you are not suitable."
She said: "That child is too obedient."
Zhou Zhoulang blinked and asked, "Isn't it good to be obedient?"
Mrs. Qian gave him a sideways glance and said: "I'm looking for a daughter-in-law, not a servant. Why do you want to be obedient? You are not strong-tempered and jumpy. You have to find someone who has ideas to take care of you. This little girl is too Shy, she listens too much to her mother, and I'm afraid she will also listen to you after entering the door, so you are not suitable."
Zhou Zhoulang suddenly felt a chill down his spine, he stammered: "Yes, but I think it's good to be obedient..."
Under Qian's gaze, Zhou Zhoulang's voice became lower and lower, and finally he could hardly hear it, "Okay, I'll listen to you mother."
Is there any other option not to listen to him
Zhou Zhoulang felt that today's busy work was wasted, so he went back to the room and changed Zhou Zhoulang's clothes, "It's so difficult to marry a wife."
But Man Bao found it very interesting, "Fourth Brother, next time you have a blind date, you must call me again."
Zhou Zhoulang was a little discouraged, and said, "It's like picking meat on the chopping board. It's not fun at all."
Originally, he was looking forward to it before people came. After all, he was marrying a wife himself, so he was excited just thinking about it, but today he was a little tired of being scrutinized by Fang's fierce eyes, and then asked all kinds of questions.
"It's not like they don't know about my situation, why do they have to ask again in front of me?"
"Let's see if you are a good person." Man Bao still felt a little regretful, "Actually, Sister Yao is really pretty."
Knowing that this marriage can't be done, Zhou Zhou Lang's face finally stopped turning red, and he said objectively: "That's it."
Over the past year, he has traveled to the county many times, and he has seen more people selling things. Of course, he has seen many beautiful girls, and of course some are prettier than Miss Yao.
Since they had no chance, there was no need to appreciate this kind of beauty, so he quickly left people behind and began to encourage Man Bao, "Man Bao, today is the winter solstice, can't we stew some mutton at home?"
Man Bao swallowed a bit and said, "Mother said to kill chickens today."
"The noodles made by the eldest sister are delicious. You can use mutton as a topping, hide it in pieces, cook it with the sauce, and then pour it..."
Man Bao salivated sharply, jumped off their bed and ran into the main room. She took her money box from Keke, looked at the only twenty-three coins left in it, and finally lost all of them. He took it out, ran to hand it to Zhou Zhoulang, and said: "Fourth brother, you go buy it now, I will ask the eldest sister to make noodles, and we will have noodles for lunch."
Zhou Zhoulang took the money with a smile, took out the money in the purse, and put it in, "Fourth brother has little money, so I can only add seven coins to it. Wait, I'll go buy meat right away." .”
Zhou Zhoulang's money was all picked out of the five Wen that Qian gave him every day when he went to sell things in the county, and he saved one or two Wen every day, and now his savings are a little more than Man Bao's, but he Man Bao will not be told.
Zhou Zhoulang called his elders, five and six together, and the three of them ran towards Dali Village together, where they gathered in Dali Village, where they would surely be able to buy mutton.
Man Bao ran to find Zhou Xi to make noodles, and when Qian asked, he knew that it was Zhou Xilang's idea.
She couldn't help but said to Zhou Xi: "That's it, do I dare to marry him such a little wife?"
Zhou Xi couldn't help being happy, and while agreeing to "do it in a while" with Man Bao, he said: "This kid is too careless. You are talking about kissing him, but he is only thinking about eating."
Qian sighed, "If it wasn't for his age, it would be even more difficult to marry a wife if he stays. I really want to wait two years before marrying him. His three older brothers can support half of the family when they are fifteen or sixteen years old. It's early enough to be sensible, and the fifth child seems to be very successful, why do you feel so worried when you come to him?"
On this side, the Zhou family felt that the Yao family was inappropriate, and on the other side, Zhou Dahong's family, and the Fang family also felt that the two were inappropriate.
After coming out of Zhou's house, they didn't go out of the village immediately, but returned to Zhou Dahong's house. Fang first took care of the matchmaker, and then asked about the meeting between her daughter and Zhou Zhoulang, mainly asking what they were doing outside. , what was said.
Seeing that the siblings seemed not very satisfied with Zhou Lang, Mrs. Yao said, "Zhou Jin's family is a straightforward person. If you don't want to, you can just talk to the matchmaker. Of course, if you look at each other, you have to like it. My daughter is not very old, just take your time and find out."
Fang hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll talk to the matchmaker later, and let her look for it again."
Yao couldn't help being curious, "Don't you see what happened last Thursday? I think what his mother said was right, he changed his mind this year, but in fact, that kid only gambled once."
"I know, he's okay, it's his family..." Fang glanced at her daughter sitting next to her with her head bowed, and whispered, "There are too many people."
Yao was surprised, "It's not good to have too many people, the population is prosperous, who dares to bully them in the village?"
"That's outside, what if it's inside?" Fang said: "Not to mention, there are six brothers in their family, and there will be six sisters-in-law in the future. My girl is shy, and I won't be able to embarrass myself when I marry in. , I don’t know how to be bullied.”
Yao Shi just laughed, "If this is another messy family, it is reasonable for you to worry so much, but you don't have to worry about it in Lao Zhou's house. Don't look at my sister-in-law who is sick now, she is the head of their house , and she has always been fair, you can tell from her treatment of the first three daughter-in-laws, and the niece will not suffer any disadvantages at home when she marries in."
Yao Shi said: "As for the future, if my sister-in-law... then the Zhou family will definitely have to separate. After all, the six brothers, their parents are gone, and it will be inconvenient to live together. At that time, the children will not be the masters of the house." ?”
"This is also one of the reasons why I don't want to," Fang whispered, "Look at her body, she needs to take medicine every day. There is a patient in this family, how much will it cost?"
Yao shi took a look at her and stopped talking.
