Merry Christmas, everyone. Xiao Wu got up early in the morning to type. He was so diligent. He hadn’t gotten up so early for a long time. He drank a large cup of coffee, and then typed the chapter numbers of the first two chapters. I wiped my sweat... In the past two days, I have been fighting guerrillas everywhere. I have been running around with a notebook on my back. I have taken advantage of various opportunities to write a little bit. Sometimes I have to write a little bit. It is almost chaotic~
Dear friends, from 0:00 on December 29th to 12:00 on January 7th, all pink tickets will be counted double. Dear friends, please remember to give us little lotus flowers with your pink tickets~

Zhu Ye couldn't tell what his mood was, but it was hard for him to say anything more after being told this by Fang, so he said that he was not feeling well and it was raining and cool outside, so he and Fang came to the house early in the morning to say goodbye. Got home early.
After Mrs. Fang entered the courtyard, the cellar door was open, and she shouted inside: "Who is in there?" "
The sound of lotus came out, Taoist lady, I came down to take a look at the vegetables inside. With such heavy rain, the potatoes have almost sprouted. If you make potatoes, you must be very careful and dig out all the sprouts, otherwise Something will happen if you eat it.”
"Well, I remember, you should come up quickly. It's wet and cold under the rain. It seems that the moisture has invaded the seams of the bones. It will hurt by then." Madam Fang greeted from above.
"Is the temple matter settled?" Hehua climbed up on the ladder below and asked.
"Well, Fu is a scholar, so it is of course useful. Moreover, the village is now in urgent need of medical treatment. I have not seen the sun for so many days, but this has never happened since I got married. Everyone in the family is worried about getting angry. Seeing that the seedlings in the field are getting worse day by day, who can take it easy?" Fang said with her hands clasped together, "I hope that a Bodhisattva will bless me this time, so that the rain will stop quickly."
"I heard from people in the village that the reason why it has been raining this year is because the village did not worship the Dragon King on February 2nd." Jasmine came out of the house and said, "But Li Zheng was very upset after hearing such rumors. It was Chapter 145 that I was angry when I came to the house to propose marriage. Otherwise, I would not have agreed to build the temple so easily this time. Our village has not built a temple for so many years. Is it really because no one can propose it? It’s just It's just that he didn't do anything about it, but now the complaints from the villagers are getting louder, and it's raining non-stop, so he has no choice but to raise the matter through Fu, and it's all taken care of."
"Okay, forget it if you hear such words in the village. You are not allowed to talk nonsense. People will only think that our family has ideas." Fang's face sank when he heard this and said, "This year, the fields I'm afraid we won't be able to count on our crops. I think the fruits on the mountain won't bloom. All our family can count on are these chickens and pigs. You two should pay more attention to this. Just go ahead and do whatever you have to do.”
In a year like this, the people placed most of their hopes on praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, so temples were quickly built in the village. Because there were no monks living here, they found a childless old man. For the time being, he could live in the side building at the back. First, he could fill his stomach with offerings and charity, and second, he could sweep and take care of the house.
I don’t know whether it was the weather that had really cleared up, or whether the temple offerings and the villagers’ incense prayers finally had an effect. Early in the morning on May 13th, before the lotus flowers even got up, I heard Jasmine singing excitedly in the yard. Shouting that the rain has stopped, please come out and take a look, the rain has stopped.”
Hehua casually grabbed a piece of clothing and wrapped it around her, pulled on her shoes and ran out. Sure enough, only a few drops of water still dripped from the eaves, but it stopped raining outside. The whole family was very excited, and gradually came the news in the village. The noise, mixed with the laughter of children, woke up the entire village and the nearby mountains and forests.
Although it did not clear up directly after dawn, there were only thin clouds in the sky, which was no longer gloomy and made people feel depressed. The sun occasionally showed its face that had not been seen for many days in the corners of the clouds, and shyly shed a little light, and then it returned to the sky. Hide back in the clouds.
But even just like this, the people in the village were so happy that every family brought offerings to the temple to fulfill their vows.
At that time, good news came from the city again, because this year the epidemic was common in the north.
Due to the flood, the imperial court has issued an order to reduce or exempt this year's money, food and miscellaneous taxes, which made the people in the village feel more at ease. The incense in the temple in the village suddenly became more prosperous, and even the surrounding villages heard about it. As soon as the village invited the Buddha statue, it stopped raining, and everyone came here specially to pray for the Buddha to offer incense. The incense was extremely prosperous, and a wandering monk came to the village and asked if he could stay here. Li Zheng looked at him despite his age. He was not big but had a kind face, so he was allowed to stay in the temple. Taking advantage of the good weather, the villagers built three more rooms behind the original three north rooms as residences for the lonely old man and the wandering monk. Coming to the temple felt a bit more respectable, and the people in the village were very grateful for Fu's kindness. They all said that if Fu hadn't proposed building the temple, the rain would not have happened.
Li Zheng also went directly to Fu and asked him to give the temple a name and write a plaque to hang in front of the temple, so as not to have no name and appear too disrespectful.
Fu Wenyan said that building a temple was a great merit. Only the whole village worked together to send their prayers to heaven and make their wishes come true. Fu naturally did not dare to take credit, but the proposal to build the temple was not Fu's hard work* *, but it was a fairy who asked me to have this opportunity, and this temple is built on the mountain, why not call it Xiushan Temple? "
Li Zheng touched it and felt that the name didn't seem grand enough, but now that Fu had already said it, he also told the reason why it was called this name. Moreover, looking at the mountain temple and the several adobe houses, it was indeed not grand. Looking like that, he nodded in agreement.
The people in the village spread the news about Fu, the fairy, to everyone in the village. Naturally, the Fang family knew the inside story. She couldn't help but feel that Fu seemed to have some interest in Zhu, and wanted to go with him. Zhu Daodao said, but seeing that she was distracted and seemed to be very worried, it was hard for her to say the joke.
Since it stopped raining that day, the sky cleared up the next day. People in the village were busy tidying up crops and repairing houses. The crops in the fields had already turned yellow after such a long period of heavy rain. In some homes, the seedlings were planted late. The sorghum was still relatively young and had been drowned in the field long ago. It has been a long time since the awn seeds were planted. As the saying goes, awn seeds cannot be planted too hard. Naturally, sorghum cannot be replanted. Everyone began to think about how to replant sorghum. To plant other things, some families took out the sweet potatoes in the cellar to grow sweet potato seedlings for sale. However, the sweet potato seedlings could not be grown in a day or two. Hehua had an idea and took out all the potatoes from the cellar. Cut the children into pieces, and spread the news in the village that they can buy them with money, exchange them with grains, or they can also write a letter to pay back the grains after autumn.
Nowadays, potatoes are not a novel item in Qijia Village, but most people don’t grow them. Even if they do, they only grow a few for their children to eat freshly, because after all, they are not a serious crop here. However, when He Hua taught Qi Laowu's family to grow potatoes, everyone in the village also knew that potatoes are similar to sweet potatoes and can be eaten as food, and the yields are large and easy to clean, so they came to buy potato seed cubes in twos and threes.
Seeing that the business was not going well, Lotus sold everything except what he wanted to plant.
Boning is the one who loves to eat potatoes the most in the family. After school, I saw that they were almost sold out, so I immediately blocked the lotus flowers. If they sell them again, there won’t be any food at home this year.”
"I'll eat them soon after autumn. These potatoes have grown long buds. Eating them is not good for your health. Go back to your house and study. Is it because I'm missing you or because I'm missing you that you're so greedy?" Hehua laughed. He said with annoyance.
The people waiting to buy the seeds laughed when they heard this and said that Hehua was really born a moment early. It looks like she is a good person at work, and she is so capable at home. If anyone marries you in the future, it will be his blessing. "
Jasmine heard this in the room and raised her voice and said, "How old is my lotus? Who would say such nonsense?" "
After hearing this, another old woman smiled and said to the man that the second wife of Zhu's family, Jasmine, has not yet been engaged. How can it be Hehua's turn? The boss of his family is now successful and will wait for two years to win the election. Are you still afraid that the girl below won’t get married to a good family? I’m afraid people from all over the country will come here to ask for my hand in marriage.”
People who came to buy potato seed cubes in the yard immediately agreed and started talking.
He Hua knocked the weighing plate on the table and asked, "Are we here to buy seeds or are we here to gossip?" If you make me angry, I won't sell this piece of property to my house. Now, thanks to the blessing of Bodhisattva, the sky has finally cleared up. If you are not busy cleaning up the house and tidying up the crops, how can one or two of you have free time to chat with me? "
"It's just a joke, it's just a joke." When the remaining people heard that they were not going to sell it, they quickly laughed and stopped. They bought all the remaining baskets of seed blocks, and the lotus flowers were closed. The courtyard door is closed.
Jasmine is helping Fang to paste the wall in the house. The humidity has been too heavy recently and the rain has been heavy. Moisture has invaded some corners of the wall. Now it looks like yellow marks. Fang has always been happy to see it. Feeling satisfied, he often opened the door to ventilate the room to dry it out, and then asked Jasmine to boil paste and paste it on the wall.
Zhu Yongxin had taken advantage of the good weather to tidy up the outside of the house in the past two days. Lotus flowers were helping Fang and Jasmine pass them underneath, and he raised his neck to watch them plastering the walls. Suddenly, Mrs. Fang said, "We will replace the roof with hard tiles in the future." Right? There are not many words”
Before Fang could see it, Jasmine opened her mouth after hearing this and said, "I see you don't dream anymore. Now that the eldest brother is going to the city to study, the expenses have suddenly increased. Boning and Shuanzi are both still young, and they will continue to study in the future." Yes, and then you have to build a house and get married. You can’t use the money, but you still think about a tile-roofed house? "
Hehua nodded and said, "The most important thing is to save the money for the dowry, but you can't just deal with it casually." "
"Why did you end up involving me again..." Jasmine immediately said in anger after hearing this, "Mom, you don't care about lotus flowers. You don't know how to learn from others every day. Now you like to say such things more and more."
"I'm not talking about you for no reason. I saw it yesterday. Matchmaker Guo from the neighboring village came to my door. Now that the eldest brother is married, the rest of the family is not yet old enough. If I hadn't proposed marriage to you, how could I have been married? Who?" Hehua said, sitting on the edge of the kang and dangling her legs.
After hearing this, Jasmine was stunned. The wallpaper that had just been coated with starch in her hand fell straight down and hit the bed quilt with a "snap".
"Yeah" He Hua hurriedly picked it up, but the kang quilt was already covered with slurry. She frowned and said, "Now that's good, I have to take the kang quilt apart and wash it."
"It's not just you, you're the one who talks to a matchmaker to propose marriage..." Jasmine said unhappily, "I... I'm still young now, and I don't deserve it even if anyone says it."
Mrs. Fang was so upset by the quarrel between the two girls that she got down from the bench and said, "You two, please give me some peace of mind. The matchmaker just came to ask, and I didn't answer her. You two are in a hurry."
Less than half a month after saying this, Hehua was sweeping the floor in the courtyard that morning. He saw Matchmaker Guo smearing the floor with makeup, twisting her body and waving her handkerchief before entering the courtyard. When she saw Hehua, she smiled and said, "This is home." My second daughter, right? There are many words to say that your parents are very lucky, and the girls they gave birth to are extremely handsome and promising. Now, people who come to my house to inquire about your girls have really stepped on the threshold, and everyone agrees. The eldest daughter in your family is of good character, good-looking, hard-working and good at running the house..."
Mrs. Fang heard Matchmaker Guo chatting with He Hua in the house. She hurriedly greeted Aunt Guo and said, "Go sit in the house first. He Hua is not even ten years old. What does she know? Go and pour water for your aunt." "
Matchmaker Guo pursed her hair in embarrassment and said, Moli Niang, I'm not telling you what, your daughter is so lovely, I have never seen a girl with the X mark from all over the country. "
People like matchmakers always talk about people and ghosts. Naturally, Mrs. Fang will not be proud of her for praising her so much. But when people praise her daughter, they always have to give a smile and say, "Auntie, come in quickly." Sit down, what's going on here today? "
Matchmaker Guo stretched out her hand and patted her thigh. "Isn't there something wrong? You see, I'm old and my brain doesn't work very well. I only focus on watching your daughter attract people, and I forget all the important things. I'll give it to you first." Congratulations"
Mrs. Fang hurriedly got out of the way, frowned and asked her aunt where did this joy come from? It’s not too late to explain things clearly first and then say hello. I’m not sure whether it’s my family’s birthday or not.”
"Of course it's a happy event. I've been talking to matchmakers all my life, and this is the first time I've seen such a happy marriage." Matchmaker Guo was not upset when she saw that Mr. Fang didn't accept her blessing. She smiled and went into the house to sit down on the Kang and drank two sips of water. Then he continued, "Ms. Moli, what I want to tell you about Jasmine today is that the family is a good one. In your mother's village, there is a family named Jiang. Although the surname is not Fang, in Fangzhuangzi Our ancestors have lived here for several generations, so we should know each other well. As for the Chiang family, there is no one with good looks and good character who can be picked out from all over the country. I am not afraid of annoying you. If so, your sister-in-law Meizi is marrying very well, but the little brother of the Jiang family, no matter in terms of family background, appearance or talent, is a bit better than your brother-in-law. It is said that he is destined to be married. The little brother of the Jiang family came with your brother-in-law to welcome the bride last time, and he fell in love with your Jasmine at first sight. Look how long it has been. Children today are not as good as ours back then. It is not easy to be so affectionate. Jiang My younger brother and his mother are doing big business in other places. Just a single child, the third generation of the old Jiang family, the whole family is in pain. If you keep your Jasmine and marry her, you will have a happy life. This is not, then The little brother of the Jiang family also passed the scholar examination this year, and he is in the same year as your Borong. The family was busy telling me about it. I told more than a dozen girls, but the little brother didn’t even look at it, so he just recommended it. Well, that’s what I’ve been doing all my life. If you can’t tell it at this point, it’s all in vain. In the end, I thought about it, this must be someone who has been pretending to be someone in my heart for a long time. The rest of the people, even if you are an immortal If you go down to earth, you can't take it into your eyes or put it into your heart, can you?" Matchmaker Guo really has a good mouth, and she talks in one way, so that Mrs. Fang doesn't even have time to open her mouth to interrupt. "I couldn't find it," so I told the old man and the old lady of the Jiang family to find the children and find out. If they are really the right match, wouldn't everyone be happy if their sweetheart comes into the house? Then the little brother finally revealed his thoughts and said He has taken a liking to your Jasmine early on. Except for Jasmine, no matter how good you say it to him, he will not want it. The old man and the old lady of the Jiang family felt sorry for their grandson, so they asked me to come and inquire about it, so I came to see him last time. Once, he really looked like a good person. When he told the Jiang family, his family was also very happy, but they didn't dare to come to propose marriage rashly, for fear that if they couldn't find the way to your family, they would... It's not good for your family Jasmine, so I asked me to go there again to explore your family's tone and find out what you mean. Mommy Jasmine, look, can you give me an answer today? Whether it's success or failure. If it doesn’t work, maybe your family has a request, and you’ve already said it, so we can just discuss it.”
Mrs. Fang was quite impressed with Jiang Shiyan. She had also inquired about his family in Fang Zhuangzi. Whether it was about family background or getting married, it was considered a high level. Moreover, Jasmine was not a arrogant person. Seeing that Matchmaker Guo didn't seem to be sure. He didn't want to stop talking, so he had to excuse himself and said, "Auntie, if you don't do this, how about you give me a few days to do the math with my family, and then we can talk about it?" "
