"Daughter? My God! Elena..."
Melissa's eyes widened all of a sudden: "Rupert wants to marry Elena to Old William's house? Marry Ross?"
"Of course not! How could it be Rose? Not to mention that Rose is still so young, even if Rose grows up, it's not Rupert's turn to think about it. He wants his daughter to marry Old William's second son..."
"Oh, Grace!" Melissa immediately called out the name of Ross's other brother: "Grace... When I went to deliver the cattle yesterday, I saw him in the lord's barn, taking care of the cattle. , Grace already looks very good! The son-in-law your brother wants is pretty good... "
"Yeah, it's good, it's good, it's good..."
Talking like this, Richard suddenly showed a wry smile on his face: "The problem is so good! On the contrary, it is also troublesome!"
"What's the matter?" Melissa asked, "What's the trouble?"
"It's not just my brother who is eyeing on Grace..."
Richard sighed: "Actually, there have been many people in the village wanting to marry their daughters to Grace recently."
Melissa had never heard her husband mention this matter, so she hurriedly asked, "Are there many people? Who are they?"
"Many, as far as I know now, there are Clarence, Archibald, Bartley, and..." Richard first read the names of several people with similar backgrounds to his own, and then solemnly read the last one Name: "Dempsey."
"Oh my god! The handlebar style!" Melissa covered her mouth and gasped.
"Yes, it's the handlebar style." Richard's face was also serious: "Melissa, we are so lucky!"
Of course Melissa understood what her husband meant by "lucky".
Like the cowherd, the handlebar is also a technical occupation, and the job allowance from the territory is second. When the villagers hope to get help or not to be made things difficult, they often have to offer a reward that can make people smile. .
With such an advantage, it is naturally enviable for ordinary free citizens in the village of Akeli to be able to marry craftsmen.
And my family, as early as two or three years ago, had already negotiated a marriage with the current cowherd—Old William's family—it was extremely lucky!
Otherwise, at this time, Wu Qingchen's elder brother, Idra, is indeed not the concern of a family like his own, and he is likely to enter the field of vision of other artisan families in the village like Grace. .
Thinking of these, Melissa couldn't help but ask, "Richard, what happened to Yolanda, isn't there any accident?"
"Cough!" Richard coughed heavily. Melissa, who came back to her senses, looked in the direction Richard was looking at, and immediately saw a bloodstain on her daughter's right hand, which was pierced by an iron needle.
"Oh!" Melissa hurried over, "Yolanda, are you okay?"
"It's okay, mother, I'm fine." Yolanda turned her face away, lowered her head, and replied in a low voice.
"Look at you!" Richard gave his wife a hard look, and said loudly, "I've said it many times! After so many years of old neighbors, don't you know old William? I'll tell you again Old William has told me several times: Idra and Yolanda's marriage will definitely not, absolutely not, and will never change!"
"I..." Melissa felt aggrieved, "Aren't I worried about Yolanda?"
"What are you worried about? Is there anything you need to worry about?"
Richard pointed angrily at the two clay pots by the wall: "How many times did you turn over the beans that Idra sent two days ago? When you turned over the beans, didn't you also think about Idra?" Did Della say that at the time?"
"Okay, I was wrong! I shouldn't have asked..."
At this time, Melissa had already walked to her daughter's side. She held her daughter's right hand and helped wipe off the blood, "Yolanda, do you remember what Idra said?"
"When the autumn is harvested, we will get married." Yolanda replied softly.
"When the autumn is harvested, get married." Melissa repeated softly, and patted her daughter's palm again: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have asked like that, Yolanda, you can rest assured and wait for the marriage."
"Yeah." Yolanda replied softly.
"I'll sew too..."
Melissa let go of her daughter's palm, and was just about to pick up another coat when she suddenly remembered something crucial: "Oh, Richard, the handlebar style has taken a fancy to Grace, why didn't you Tell your brother?"
"He..." Richard's syllable just now was overwhelmed by Melissa's next series of questions.
"Oh, don't you want your brother to help us with the work in the field? Oh, don't you want your brother to be bitten by bees! Richard, we can't do this! When the time comes, your brother will be in vain work, was bitten by a bee, and finally found out that we had lied to him, it must be our fault! Also, we now have beans sent by Idra, and we can often borrow strong cattle from the village. You can live a good life! Richard, don't do this, go and tell your brother! In case... "
"Enough!" "Shut up!" "Stop talking!"
Richard yelled several times before finally calming Melissa down.
"Who said I wanted to take advantage of Rupert?"
Richard's face was full of tears and laughter: "Do you think Rupert doesn't know about this? The handlebar style took a fancy to Grace, and Rupert told me himself!"
"Really? Is your brother really so clear?" Melissa said incredulously: "If that's the case, why do you want to exchange work with us? There are craftsmen who can marry, and Old William may choose her daughter?"
"Hmph! Of course family is very important to a marriage partner, but it doesn't just depend on whether it's a craftsman or not! The girl herself is the one who really gets married!"
"Why?" Melissa didn't quite understand what her husband meant.
"Melissa, you usually only worry about the work at home, don't you know anything about the village?"
"Worrying about the work at home, isn't it good?" Melissa asked back.
"Okay, okay..." Richard quickly comforted her, and then continued with some pride: "My brother's daughter, your niece—Eileen, is a very popular girl in the village!"
"I seem to have heard a little..."
"How could it be just a little bit? Elena! Don't you think...that figure, that waist, that hand, that leg...everything on Elena, makes people like it at a glance?"
Seeing that his wife didn't approve of his niece's charm, Richard continued with some dissatisfaction:
"It's summer now! I just don't have many clothes! I saw Elena yesterday, tsk tsk, that hand..."
Richard rolled up the sleeves of his robe and patted his arm: "It's thicker than mine!"
"That waist..." Richard pulled his wife to his side, and gestured with the two of them together: "It's so strong!"
"That calf!" Richard wrapped his arms around his thigh and shook vigorously: "It's almost as big as my thigh!"
"That's strength!" Richard snorted through his nostrils: "Irene carried two bundles of old and heavy grass by herself! More than Rupert!"
"Such a good girl..." Richard glanced at his wife: "In the village of Akeli, can you pick the second one?"
"Hmph!" This time, it was Melissa's turn to stare at Richard viciously. Following the direction of Melissa's gaze, Richard saw that his daughter, Yolanda, looked down sadly. head.
"Oh..." Richard rubbed his head, "Yolanda, I'm not talking about you... Well, it's not your fault! It's not your fault, Rupert, your uncle has only one son in his family, So Elena can eat as much as a boy since she was a child, so she can grow so cute... "
"Yolanda, you have two older brothers and a younger brother. You are usually a good boy and often give food to your younger brother. So, you don't look so good-looking. It's not your fault, you know?"
"Yes." Yolanda replied softly.
"Well, it's just about this..." Richard turned to his wife again: "Give Yolanda half a bowl when you eat in the future..."
"No need, father." Yolanda quickly refused.
"No, it should be like this." Richard's tone was quite firm: "First of all, these are beans sent by Idra, of course you should eat an extra portion. Then, you are about to get married, if you are still so thin by then, People would laugh at our family when we got married--of course, that's all right--but it would be bad if people laughed at old William's too. Yolanda, don't you think?"
"This..." Yolanda hesitated for a while, then nodded lightly: "Okay, father."
"Well, good boy..." Richard showed a gratified smile on his face: "Don't worry, there are still several months before marriage, you should try to eat more... By then, even if you can't catch up with Elena, you will be better than now." Much better looking."
————
At the same time, Elena, the focus of the Richard family's conversation, was grooming for the upcoming important day under the collective guidance of the whole family.
"Mom, I've changed..."
Lifting off the cover that her younger brother and mother had blocked with several pieces of clothing, Elena walked out from the corner.
With the appearance of Eileen, the dim wooden house seemed to instantly brighten up.
Check it out.
This beautiful girl.
Her lower body is a skirt that is obviously one size smaller, and two strong and beautiful thick legs are exposed under the skirt.
Her upper body was also wearing a robe that was significantly smaller. The robe was tightly attached to the young girl's muscular body, fully setting off the attractive muscular contours.
"It's beautiful, my daughter..."
Wearing Elena's thick dress, the mother's face was full of joyful smiles: "It's so beautiful, when you go to work in your uncle's land tomorrow morning, the work near the old William's house will be yours, Show Gracedo my beautiful girl!"
"Yeah." Elena blushed and nodded.
The beautiful girl nodded firmly.
