When bringing the tea in, Li Qinghe found that Hu's mother's attitude was much better than last time, she praised Zhao Wanwan several times, and she seemed to be very satisfied everywhere.
I don't know what happened during this period of time, which made Hu's mother suddenly change her attitude. When Li Qinghe poured tea, Mother Hu did not forget to thank her, and looked at Qian Shi with a smile, "If it's convenient for you, I will bring Granny Xi to the door tomorrow to make an appointment. After that, the marriage will be faster, and the wedding date should be before the end of the year. In this way , We also have one more person in the Hu family during the Chinese New Year this year, so that the mother and son will not have nothing to say when they sit together."
Zhao Wanwan's face was flushed with embarrassment, and Qian Shi was also very happy, "I'm free, I will mention it to Wanwan's father tomorrow and ask him to wait at home."
When Mother Hu heard her mentioning Li Fu, she paused with a smile, then recovered, and talked about Xiao Dingli.
At this time, it was not suitable for Zhao Wanwan to stay any longer. Li Qinghe poured the tea and went out to the field with the tea.
It was only after going out that Zhao Wanwan was following her. Li Qinghe was surprised, "Are you going out too?"
Zhao Wanwan smiled sweetly, "I'll stay with you, I'm too embarrassed to stay there right now."
"Very happy?" Li Qinghe asked with a smile.
Zhao Wanwan nodded, "I thought this marriage was going to be a mess, but I didn't expect them to change their mind."
Li Qinghe was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but said, "Aren't you wondering why they changed their minds? Maybe here..." The words paused, and if she continued, it would seem that she would not see Zhao Wanwan well.
"It will be fine." Zhao Wanwan said firmly, "Auntie and... Mr. Hu are here, and they look happy. They should be fine. Don't worry about it, sister."
In the end it was a misunderstanding.
Conscience of heaven and earth, Li Qinghe kindly reminded her that she really wouldn't be envious of the Hu family's marriage.
Li Qinghe stopped talking, Zhao Wanwan was very excited, and continued, "If the marriage goes well, after I get married to the town, I want to see my aunt more, and next time I have helper work, I will do more."
Li Qinghe: "..." Miss, you think a lot.
Fortunately, it was not far from the field. When Li Qinghe arrived with tea, Li Fu and Zhou Chengkang were working in full swing.
"There's still some tea here, why are you here at this hour?" Perhaps it was because Zhou Chengkang came to help with work, but he spoke softly to Li Qinghe, implying that she should come later after sunset.
Seeing Zhao Wanwan at the side again, he frowned, "It's just delivering water, what are you all running here for?"
Zhao Wanwan's face turned red immediately, "It's not suitable for me to be at home at this time."
Hearing this, Li Fu became suspicious.
"The Hu family is here again. When we came out, we just heard that Aunt Hu said that she would ask Granny Xi to come to propose marriage tomorrow." Li Qinghe's tone was flat, and his face was as usual.
Li Fu frowned, "Didn't you mention the dowry?"
Zhao Wanwan was extremely shy at first, and hurriedly said, "No, my aunt didn't mention that today."
"Come tomorrow?" Li Fu scanned the large fields of wheat in the field.
Zhao Wanwan lowered her head, "Father, it's just a door-to-door proposal. It will take a long time at most. Don't you want to?"
Seeing her look down, Li Fu hurriedly said, "No. It's just that these two days are very busy, and I'm afraid it will rain. You were raised by me, so I would naturally like to see you find your home. This is a good thing. I will definitely be at home tomorrow .”
Zhao Wanwan cheered up again, "Thank you dad!"
"Thank you?" Li Fu laughed, "You are my daughter, you should do all of this."
Li Qinghe lowered her eyes and poured tea, and then sent it to Zhou Chengkang who walked a little farther away. She found that the mother and daughter were very good at using the trick of retreating into advance. Originally, Li Fu was a little dissatisfied with the Hu family's visits these two days, so he could change the time, but as soon as Zhao Wanwan was disappointed, he quickly agreed.
A calm male voice came from the side, but slightly worried, "Don't be unhappy."
The corners of Li Qinghe's mouth curled up immediately, "I'm not unhappy, it just so happens that you can take a rest tomorrow."
There is no reason why the master is not there, and there is a reason why he came to work in the field by himself. He was originally helping, even if Zhou Chengkang really became the son-in-law of the Li family, he had to be brought by Li Fu to come to work.
"I haven't had a break these two days, and the wheat at my house is still thrashing." Zhou Chengkang smiled, "My family is also very busy this year. The elder brother and the second brother are busy helping the father-in-law these days, and the third brother only returned yesterday. If you don't beat it down, I'm afraid it will be covered."
Li Qinghe was noncommittal after listening, looked at the sky and said, "I'm going to feed the fish."
When she left, Zhao Wanwan was with her again and followed her to the pond. Speaking of which, after Li Qinghe bought this wasteland, Zhao Wanwan came here for the first time. Seeing the palm-sized fish in the pond, she was a little surprised, "It looks like this, it grows very fast."
Li Qinghe explained, "The ones that grow fast will grab food. The bigger ones get bigger, and the smaller ones get smaller. It's actually not easy to feed. It's up to you whether you can get back your money."
Zhao Wanwan pondered for a while, and said optimistically, "At least there is no shortage of meat."
This is true.
Speaking of meat, since Li Qinghe came home, the family has not eaten meat a few times. Especially in the past, I never needed to spend money on meat, but now that I buy it, I realize that it is really like cutting myself, it hurts!
Li Qinghe asked with a smile, "Want to eat meat? Don't you have a piece at home?"
Zhao Wanwan smiled, and didn't say much, Zhou Chengkang came to help, and Li Fu bought it on purpose, and even when it was her turn, she didn't say much.
When the two returned, Mother Hu was still there. She greeted them before leaving. Before leaving, she said again, "We will come to the door early tomorrow morning."
Mrs. Qian happily sent them out, and greeted them all the way to the entrance of the village.
At dinner, there was indeed a plate of meat on the table. Li Fu asked Zhou Chengkang to eat more. When the meal was finished, before Zhou Chengkang left, Li Fu said, "I have something to do tomorrow morning, you..."
Zhou Chengkang smiled and said, "Uncle, I understand. I'll come back the day after tomorrow."
With these words, Li Fu was even happier, and he turned and entered the door after watching him walk away. Qian Shi and Zhao Wanwan were eating seriously at this time, Zhou Chengkang was here just now, they were too embarrassed to say hello to the plate of meat, so they don't have to be polite now.
Seeing him enter, Qian hurriedly said, "The Hu family said, they will come in the morning."
"Morning?" Li Fu frowned. He worked faster in the morning, and the sun was much milder than in the afternoon, so he didn't feel so uncomfortable.
Qian took it for granted, "That's right, I came from the town to take advantage of the lack of sun in the morning, or else I'd be sweating profusely, and it wouldn't look good to come to the door." After a pause, he continued, "It's only half a day, Wan Wan is your father, she should be sad if you do this."
"I didn't say anything!" Li Fu looked at Zhao Wanwan, "It just so happens that I can sleep a little longer tomorrow, which is good."
Li Qinghe put away the bowls and chopsticks, and pretended not to see the eyebrows and lawsuits between the three of them.
In the morning of the next day, it was very bright outside. Usually at this time, Li Qinghe would get up and go to the pond to feed the fish, but today she didn’t move, turned over and continued to sleep, planning to go out to feed the fish when the Hu’s came. avoid.
Li Fu didn't have to get up early today, the yard outside was quiet, except for the occasional rooster crowing from behind the house. Suddenly she opened her eyes and felt something was wrong.
She seemed to hear the door of the main room rang. The wooden door had been used for a long time, and it would make a sound when it was opened and closed. The main room where Li Fu lived was on the other side. She could hear it every morning, but today the sound was much quieter.
When did Li Fu and Qian Shi open the door so cautiously
Shouldn't there be thieves
She stood up and put on her clothes nimbly, opened the door a crack and saw Mrs. Qian walked into the yard lightly, and looked back warily.
Li Qinghe was really surprised this time, no matter how she looked at it, it seemed to be sneaking... Seeing Mrs. Qian leaving the yard and heading towards the entrance of the village, she was really curious. She also opened the door, paused before leaving, and went back to get a shoe So, I borrowed this from Qingyu at the entrance of the village, and I've finished drawing it, so I'll return it to her by the way.
Holding the shoe samples, before arriving at Qingyu's house, she saw Qian Shi at the fork in the road to the small river, and there was a man standing beside her, and the two were talking about something.
The sky was hazy, and Li Qinghe couldn't see who that person was. She walked straight to Qingyu's house. At this time, it was the time for every family to get up and wash, so it was a little early. Qingyu was washing in the yard, when she saw her and the shoe pattern in her hand, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't have time to make shoes now." She took it and smiled at her, "How about it, give it to your lover Do you sew all your affection into making shoes?"
Making shoes is something that is done in winter, and now few people are free enough to make shoes. Li Qinghe also wanted to make a pair for Zhou Chengkang, and poke two needles when he had time. The last sentence was to make fun of her on purpose.
The two talked and laughed a few words, Li Qinghe turned around and was about to go home, when he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties approaching leisurely from the corner of his eye, he was the one who had just talked to Qian, and he glanced at them as he passed by , went straight away.
