"But these belong to your brothers and Wu'er's dowry, you took them all away, what will your brothers do?" Zhou's mother's voice was full of despair, "If you get married, this house is not enough to live in, It’s not always enough to repair a house here.”

Li Qinghe left after hearing this. Speaking of which, every one of the Zhou family is considered a strong laborer, life should not be sad.

But it is said that half-sized children eat me up, and those who eat a lot when there are too many people, the food recovered from other people's fields can last until April and May, and the better ones can last until June and July, which is barely enough. , but the Zhou family... could finish the food a few years ago. When the brothers of the Zhou family got a little older, they went out to find work to fool their stomachs by themselves, and they barely managed to live. Later, Zhou's father was ill for a long time and completely emptied the family. In the past two years, I have paid off all my debts, and Zhou's mother has money, which should not be much.

Therefore, when people in the village mentioned the Zhou family, their first reaction was that they were poor.

When Li Qinghe returned home, Li Fu was sharpening his knife in the yard when he saw her enter the door, "Did you buy the fry?"

Li Qinghe hummed, "Put it in."

Seeing that she was absent-minded, Li Fu continued, "Fish farming is really good, but you have to watch carefully and don't waste your money. After two days of autumn harvest at home, you can help cook, okay?"

"Yes." Li Qinghe agreed. She lives at home and is still willing to help with some things.

Hearing this, Li Fu's face softened a little, "I want to settle Wanwan's marriage as soon as possible. It's not that I insist on forcing you, but that someone from the Hu family seems to be in touch. This marriage is very good, although Wanwan is not I gave birth to her, but I have raised her for nearly ten years, and I still hope that she will be well. Besides, I think you treat her well... Anyway, you have already chosen the Zhou family, can you remind me?"

"I can't." Li Qinghe was a little annoyed, "How about the brothers over there, all of them will come down with betrothal gifts of all ages, so why worry?"

Li Fu was annoyed, "Then I won't agree to the Zhou family, you are the one who insists on jumping in, such a poor family is avoided by everyone, you are stupid."

Li Qinghe is silent, she is indeed stupid, but she just wants a pure feeling, most men are like money, even if they are interested in her, they will change their goals when they find that things can't be done, in this world, there is only one Zhou Chengkang who is willing Guard her wholeheartedly, even if she is gone. She has no reason to push such feelings away.

"Don't rush." Li Qinghe entered the kitchen, "It's useless to rush. The Hu family can't come to help you with the autumn harvest, so why don't you rush to make a decision before the autumn harvest?"

This time Li Fu was silent.

In a rural family, after the two families got married, the son-in-law really wanted to help the Yue family with work, and Li Fu urged her, not necessarily without this reason. Many families will discuss marriage with their children after the autumn harvest, when the grain enters the warehouse, and the family is not busy. Secondly, it is to avoid this life.

Of course, there are also many people who rushed to make an appointment before the autumn harvest to show their sincerity.

The next morning, news came out from the Zhou family that the boss of the Zhou family had gone to Liu Village with a matchmaker and made an appointment there, probably because it was a second marriage, and the wedding date was set for next month.

Immediately after noon, the marriage between Zhou's second child and Li Qingmiao was also finalized. In the evening, the third son of the Zhou family and the third daughter of the Zhang family in the town also made a marriage agreement.

The Zhou family, a group of brothers who are easy to beat singles at first glance, has three people in one day, not to mention Wangcun, even in the whole town, it is very unusual. Zhou's mother is definitely the fastest mother-in-law, not one of them.

With such news, even if they saw Li Qinghe running to the wasteland to feed the fish, everyone was only curious for a moment, then threw it aside, and talked about the three daughters-in-law of the Zhou family enthusiastically.

It wasn't until the next day that everyone suddenly remembered that the wasteland near the west mountain was bought by Li Qinghe, and he bought ten acres at once, and allocated a large area.

Many people were heartbroken, but that was more than a dozen taels of silver. If they did something wrong, they could build a decent house. But I also heard that her own name was written there, what does that mean

It means that whoever marries her will get ten acres of land for nothing!

Although it is wasteland, it still has ten acres. Besides, the pond inside has already been fed with fish, and after two or three days, the little fish is still alive and kicking, and it is very likely that it will grow up smoothly.

This is all silver!

For a while, many people asked Qian and Li Fu about Li Qinghe's marriage, both openly and secretly. Li Fu said that he was not in a hurry, and Qian's side would not take over, but he understood one thing, Li Fu had no intention of swallowing his daughter's land.

These people became more and more interested, and ran to Li Xingwang to inquire without giving up.

On the way Li Qinghe went to feed the fish in the morning and evening, he would run into young people whom he didn't know very well before, and greeted her as if he knew her very well.

I never thought that there would be such a big reaction on this ten acres of wasteland. Looking at the dark and honest young man asking her for directions, Li Qinghe fell into deep thought. Did she underestimate the attraction of this land to the farmers

"Girl, do you know this family?" The young man was a little nervous, "I'm not a bad person, but I'm from Shancun over there. My aunt has been married here for many years, and her surname is Li. By the way, my cousin's name is Qingyu."

Li Qingyu, she and Li Qinghe are cousins, and they live not far from her house, "Go straight this way, and if you see a jujube tree in the yard, it's her house."

"Thank you." The young man smiled honestly, "But I don't know Zaoshu, can you take me there? Thank you very much."

Don't farmers know jujube trees

Li Qinghe was surprised, and suddenly felt that his appearance was misleading, this person is not honest at all, okay, he was about to say that there are not many people with trees in the yard in the past, so he could ask, when a familiar male voice came from behind, "I will take you there .It can also take you around the village a few times.”

The simple and honest man looked stunned, "Who are you?"

"Don't you want to know the way?" Zhou Chengkang walked up to him, put his arms around his shoulders and led him away, "Let me tell you, your aunt's house is very close, and I know her well..."

The corners of Li Qinghe's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
