Just now for dinner, there are several people in the Zhao family, and there may be many people in the Zhou family, so they have to accommodate the guests no matter what, so the Zhou family actually didn't eat well.
Zhou's mother brought out food and meat for everyone to cook. Dinner was also eaten here. There were many people cooking. When it was getting dark, the food was put on the table again. Everyone was preparing to eat when someone knocked on the door outside.
It's only the first day of junior high school today, and there should be no one else except the neighbors. Mother Zhou opened the door by herself.
Then I heard her calling outside, "Fifth Sister..."
Fifth Sister lifted the curtain and went out, and soon Mother Zhou came back, "Zhao Liyuan is here, talk to Fifth Sister, and have dinner."
He picked up the bowl and picked a piece of meat for Zhang Haiyao.
Zhang Haiyao has been in the house for so long, because the dowry is still domineering and unpleasant, this is the first time Zhou's mother has treated her like this, and she immediately smiled, "Mother, if you encounter such a thing in the future, you will come to me."
Mother Zhou spat at her, "Crow mouth."
Zhang Haiyao was stunned, and said to herself, "I was wrong."
Fifth Sister didn't stay outside for long, and soon brought Zhao Liyuan in.
After entering the door, Zhao Liyuan bowed to Zhou's mother, "Auntie, there are some things I didn't say. After I went back and thought about it, I still didn't think it was right. I came here to explain to you."
Mother Zhou restrained the smile on her face, put down the bowl and chopsticks, "I really want to hear your explanation."
Zhao Liyuan took a deep breath. "Rongrong and I grew up together, and I really liked her. Later, as we grew up, she said she liked me too, and we made an appointment to get married in the future..."
Hearing this, everyone in the room frowned slightly or heavily.
"But later, she got married with my third brother, and then got engaged very quickly, and got married last month." Zhao Liyuan lowered his head, and his voice was softer, "I went to find third brother, and only then did I find out that Rongrong had already married her. The third brother agrees with each other. Knowing this, I don’t care about her anymore. The fifth sister is very good, and I will treat her well in the future. Today, I dare to do this in front of my brothers, sisters-in-law and aunt. Said, if you feel that I did not do well in the future, just beat me up."
The attitude is sincere and the tone is sincere.
Zhou's mother's complexion softened. In fact, as long as she didn't have to have a sweetheart, even if she had a heart before, as long as she calmed down and lived a good life after getting married, it would be fine. "Come and eat."
Zhao Liyuan was overjoyed, and sat down on the table in a proper manner. After eating, he even helped send the dishes to the kitchen.
When Zhou's mother saw it, she was even more satisfied. After clearing away the dishes, I talked to him, "Your third sister-in-law, don't many men have feelings for her?"
Zhao Liyuan was silent for a while, "I don't know, I just thought she was innocent and simple, and liked to make friends. But then I found out that she has many good brothers, besides my third brother and me, there are two other cousins of mine, she There seem to be two or three in Waizutang Village."
It's not surprising that He Hoe is also in it.
Li Qinghe is speechless, this girl is quite powerful, in fact, if she wants so many men to surround her, first of all, she must not expose her relationship with Zhao Liyuan, and... who knows that Zhao Liyuan is the only one who has made a lifelong promise with her
After Zhao Liyuan left this time, everyone was also happy, Fifth Sister took out the red silk that she had thrown aside for the past two days, asked Zhou's mother to help cut it, and asked a few sisters-in-law for embroidery samples.
If you want to say that embroidery is the best, it must be Yu Yan. She has all kinds of embroidery samples over there, and Fifth Sister's own craftsmanship is also good. Therefore, it is agreed that she will go to Li Qinghe in two days and ask Yu Yan to borrow an embroidery sample. come over.
When it came to the first month, the weather this year seemed to be all right, and the families began to take care of the weeds in the field. Li Qinghe and his wife took a child and finished their work at home. In fact, they didn't have much free time.
Don't be in a hurry at all. After burying the sweet potatoes in the ground, wait for everyone to clean up before asking someone to come over to help with the work.
Last year, every family survived the drought by relying on sweet potatoes, and even because sweet potatoes can sell food and eat sweet potatoes to fill their stomachs, so this year all the people in Wang Village, every family started to grow sweet potatoes. Some people even came to Li Qinghe for advice.
After the first person came to see the sweet potatoes she planted, several waves of people came to ask for advice almost every day.
On Li Fu's side, Li Qinghe told him that there is no need to bury the sweet potatoes, just come over and pinch the seedlings later.
When the child was 100 days old, it was already February, and the barley in the fields of each family was almost finished. Li Qinghe asked Li Fu and Li Kui to invite people to plant the land in three days. She was a bit deliberate. Originally, Li Fu had a cold relationship with his father and elder brother, but it was all because of Qian Shi. Now that Qian Shi is gone, the relationship can be eased.
Sure enough, after working together for three days, they got along pretty well. How could they not say a word when they went in and out together sooner or later
It is worth mentioning that, because too many people were invited, the work was actually finished in two and a half days. In the last half of the day, after eating at noon, Li Qinghe simply asked everyone to work in Li Fu's field. Although it was only half a day, so many people squeezed into the field, and in a daze they finished all the rest of Li Fu's field.
In the next few days, Zhou Chengkang will go to help her mother with work. Zhou's mother is very busy this year. After she has to take care of the field, she will start to give the fifth sister a dowry. Have to prepare in advance.
Recently, the family is busy, and Fifth Sister also finds time to come to Yu Yan to embroider the wedding dress together, and she can give her some pointers by the way. Sometimes when Li Qinghe went to the kitchen to cook, she would help look after the children for a while.
On this day, when Li Qinghe was still in the kitchen, he heard someone knocking on the door. Originally, they didn't have many guests here, but because of the fish pond, the spring plowing has been busy recently, and many people would ask relatives or brothers to help with the work, so they had to Prepare some meat dishes, and the generous ones will come and catch a fish.
She thought there was a customer coming to buy fish, but when she opened the door, she found that she was an acquaintance.
It was the Yang Rongrong whom I had only met once. Seeing that it was her, Li Qinghe felt a little bit more dissatisfied after hearing Zhao Liyuan talk about the things she did, and her seemingly ignorant attitude towards him that day. Xi, turned his eyes and asked, "Miss buy fish?"
Yang Rongrong froze for a moment, turned around and looked at the fish pond, "Catch one for me."
Li Qinghe went out, closed the door behind her, caught a fish weighing more than four catties for her, collected the money, turned around and entered the door.
Yang Rongrong was carrying a fish, "Hey, fourth sister-in-law."
What sister-in-law
Except for a few brothers and daughters-in-law of the Zhou family who can call Li Qinghe's fourth sister-in-law, there is no girl surnamed Yang.
So, she pretended not to hear and went in directly.
"Sister-in-law on Thursday!" Yang Rongrong chased after two steps, "I heard that Fifth Sister is here, I want to see her."
"What did you ask her for?" Li Qinghe turned around and stood at the door blocking the door, "It's the same with me, it's like this, my son is asleep, I'm afraid you will wake him up if you go in, it's really inconvenient."
Hearing the movement, Fifth Sister had already gone out and stood in the yard. Seeing this, Yang Rongrong, who was still entangled, said, "Just... did she misunderstand brother Liyuan and me? I want to explain to her that brother Liyuan has been my elder brother since I was a child. There is nothing between us." .”
Li Qinghe nodded, "I know, let me remind you, now he is not your elder brother, but your cousin, and he is already married, so how can he even get the name wrong?"
While muttering, he slammed the door shut.
It almost hit Yang Rongrong's nose.
Seeing this, Fifth Sister couldn't help laughing.
"Sister-in-law Si, there's no need to do this." Fifth Sister said with a smile.
Li Qinghe spread his hands, "At first I thought that Zhao Liyuan might be lying, but now it seems that he didn't talk nonsense at all." Then he said, "Don't believe it, if she tells you something in the future, you can directly Just ask Zhao Liyuan, you can't distrust your own people just to trust outsiders, right?"
"Actually, many misunderstandings between husband and wife are due to lack of honesty." Li Qinghe went into the kitchen, saw Fifth Sister following in, and continued, "If you have anything to ask, just ask it clearly. Like her..." She Stretching out his finger and pointing outside the gate, "I can't take advantage of the loophole."
Fifth Sister smiled and nodded, "I understand."
When it was time to plant the sweet potato seedlings, Li Qinghe hired another round of people to finish planting the sweet potato seedlings. In fact, there was not much to do at home. In this village, the Yang family next door was the only one who hired people as generously as her.
Don't look at their family has moved to the village, the Yang family couple and a pair of children have never been in the field.
It is worth mentioning that Yang Lanrou has already married to the Xu family. During the spring farming this year, she ran back to live in her natal family, and she hasn't gone back yet.
What's more, Hu Yanxi has already set off for the county seat again, and he is the one who went back this time. Maybe it's because they didn't bother enough. During the year they lived in Zhao's house, a lot of troubles happened. The woman Zhao Tianfu was looking for gave birth to a boy two days ago. It is said that the quarrel became more violent in the past two days.
Having a child this year, even if the spring plowing is over, she will not be able to go up the mountain to cut firewood with Zhou Chengkang, so she and the child are at home, with nothing to do, and the weather is fine, so she takes the child back to Li's house and brings it to her father. Some steamed buns passed by.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a strange woman in the yard, dressed in muslin, cleaning the yard, and in the corner over there, a large piece of Li Fu's clothes was left to dry.
Seeing her enter the door, the woman rubbed her hands awkwardly and took a small step back.
Li Qinghe was a little dazed when he saw a stranger in his yard, but after seeing her like this, he came back to his senses, "Are... is my father at home?"
The woman nodded hurriedly, "Yes, plant vegetables in the backyard."
