Xu Qing's cheeks were still red as he watched Xie Amo leave, but he actually agreed! However, Xu Qing thought about it, rather than waiting to marry a man he didn't know in two months, it was better to take advantage of these two months to find one!
It was already bright at this time. After Xu Qingqing finished rinsing, he ate the corn buns that Xie Amo had brought with him for breakfast. After the breakfast, Xu Qing said deeply that he would not eat until it was a last resort. I won't eat corn buns to abuse my stomach! Corn is one thing, to make a southerner eat corn buns every day is really looking for guilt!
I planted the small prickly ash tree in the space into the yard and vegetable garden. I also specially looked at the wild ginseng I dug yesterday. Well, it is very fresh. I will sell it at the next market, so I can "marry" my daughter-in-law!
The piglets in the pig sty are already protesting "humming", and now they have to get some hogweed before the sun rises!
When Xie Amo came home, Uncle Xie was sitting in the yard smoking a dry cigarette.
Looking at Xie Ami who came back with a basket on his back, he was a little surprised, "You're back? Hey, did you bring it back?"
"Nuo, take it, you clean it up at noon today, I'll do it!"
Xie Amo handed the basket to the owner of the house and said with a smile.
"Is it all right?"
"It's more than nothing! I'll tell you, butcher Liu's house is coming at noon today. If you have nothing to eat, go out and walk around by yourself. Don't overhear us!" This old man likes to hide secretly every time. Eavesdropping on yourself and others chatting in the corner.
"I said why are you so excited, I'm going to slaughter the rabbit for you! I'm going to open meat today!" Uncle Xie has also been greedy for game for a long time!
"Look at what you said, the meat I bought yesterday is not meat!"
Xu Qing carried the pigweed full of pigweeds in the back basket, and walked on the path covered by greenery. The warm sunshine casts long or mottled shadows from the trees and leaves, which is both warm and cool.
Of course, it would be better if there were no people who always pointed at him along the way!
"I can't believe that after so many years, why is he still so ugly? I made a bet with Liu San'er from the next village, and I thought he had become beautiful!" This is the indignant pair of Han Ziyu in a beige shirt. Said with the chubby man beside him.
"Do you think everyone is the same as you? Every year is getting more and more beautiful!" The slightly fat man pouted, but he is still single!
"Haha, why don't you talk to your grandfather, forget about marrying an ugly brother! Although people are ugly, it's not a long time to turn off the lights!" The beige man who thought of his daughter-in-law's delight in his heart deliberately teased Looking at the slightly fat man, he didn't care whether Xu Qing, who was not far away, heard it.
"Go and go! Hurry up, I have to go into the mountains to try my luck. Although I have been doing odd jobs in the military camp for the past five years, maybe if I am lucky enough to catch something good, I will immediately go to the next village to propose a marriage!"
"Hahaha, just kidding! Let's go!"
Xu Qing listened to the footsteps of their departure, and let out a long breath. It is best not to reason with him, or else he will be entangled! It seems that they are also people who have just returned from military service.
"What's wrong with Ugly! Ugly won't marry you!!"
Xu Qing, who made up his mind to marry a "good man", walked home quickly and chopped the pig grass to the piglets. Xu Qing was ready to clean up the house. He folded all the clothes with patches and those without patches. , and packed up all the cotton wool that had been used for many years and the quilts and sheets that were no longer needed, and put them in the room where Father Xu and the others lived before they were placed outside.
"It seems that I need to buy more cotton wool and quilt covers!" Xu Qing looked at the cleaned room. In addition to a large bed, there was a large cabinet made by Xu's father next to it. The clothes with patches were piled up on the top of the cabinet. , the one with no patches next to it is the Tsing Yi, yes, really poor!
dong dong dong dong!
"Yo, it must be from the Liu family! I'll open the door, and you bring the food to the table!"
Xie Amo wiped the water stains on his hands with a cloth, and after instructing Aunt Xie, ran to open the courtyard door.
"Come in, I'll know you're here at noon, hurry up, the meal is ready." Xie Ame and Liu Ame grew up together when they were young, and they were not familiar with each other, and they were not particular about it.
Liu Amo handed the basket in his hand to Xie Amo, "This is the sweet potato flour that I grind at home. Last time you said you didn't have it at home, take it."
"Okay, by the way, how's that going?"
Compared with food, he is really more concerned about Brother Qing's affairs. He didn't come last time to talk about Brother Qing's recruiting and what he asked for. This time, let's explore the wind first, and then look for it if it doesn't work.
"You don't worry about me doing business! Oh, what's this smell? It's really fragrant!"
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Liu Ame smelled a scent, "Okay, let's eat first, and after we eat, let's chat!"
After dinner, Xie Ame asked Uncle Xie to clear the dining table, dragged Liu Momo into the room, and closed the door.
"Come on, are there any candidates?"
Liu Amei touched her bloated belly, "I've really looked at it these days, and I've visited a lot of people. In the end, I really feel that there is a candidate, the second Li of the Li family at the head of the village!"
Of course, this village head refers to the head of Jixiang Village, the second child of the Li family, is he called Changfeng? He had the impression of this person at the time. He was an honest and responsible child. He had many brothers in the family, and it was easy to recruit him. However, "Didn't he have a marriage contract with the Wang family brother?" "
As soon as he mentioned this, Liu Amei slapped his thigh, "That's right, but five years ago, when it wasn't recruiting, Li Laosan asked Li Lao Er to replace him when he wanted to take the talent test, and I heard that he put his name on it. I just told Mr. Li!"
"Is there still such a thing?!" He really hadn't heard of it.
"No, what's even more absurd is that in the second year of Li Lao Er's departure, Li Lao San married Wang's brother! Saying that his brother can't wait for five years, or he will break off the marriage, or else , just change the bridegroom, bah, it's not because of Li Laosan's reputation as a scholar!"
Xie Amo was stunned for a moment. He had heard that the brother of the Wang family was married to the Li family, but he really didn't know that he had changed the groom.
"Don't think that this second Li is a little older, I just don't think he's superficial like other guys! He's a capable guy, and now he's awkward at home, and his daughter-in-law who hasn't been through the door has become his younger brother. Daughter-in-law! No one can stand it!"
Seeing Xie Amei nodding, Liu Amei lit another fire, "Moreover, there are a lot of people in the village, so the third child of the Li family is making a fuss about breaking up the family! Tsk tsk, who doesn't know that he just wants to give the second child Li. Get out!"
"Separate!"
Xie Amo's eyes lit up, this is really a good candidate for recruiting!
"Cough, let me tell you, after you go back, privately ask your man to invite Mr. Li to have dinner at your house, and then you can give Tantanfeng to you, and I'll tell you that Brother Qing has no other requirements. It's just for recruiting!"
Liu Amo's eyes widened all of a sudden, "Zhou Tuo! Hey, hey, isn't this a God-given marriage? Okay, let me tell you, I'll have someone deliver a letter to you tomorrow at the latest!"
Li Changfeng was walking home with a large bundle of firewood on his back. He was a tall man, about one meter eighty-five, with a square appearance and erect eyebrows! It's just that the skin is a little dark, and when he purses his mouth and does not speak, he gives a very serious expression.
As soon as he reached the door of the house, he heard his third brother shouting loudly to the family.
"Divided! It must be divided! He gave me military service, which I owe him! I remember, I will pay it back! But this family must be divided!"
Father Li took a sip of dry smoke and sat silently in the courtyard. Boss Li and his daughter-in-law also did not speak in front of the background.
"Father! You have something to say!"
Li Laosan said several times that the separation of the family had not been approved by Li's father, and he was a little dissatisfied.
"Separated, where does the second child live?" Youngest Li, who had been silent by the side, said.
"I can build a house for my second brother without my share of money!"
Hearing this, Li Changfeng's heart twitched fiercely, this is his third brother, the third brother he has protected behind him since he was a child!
No one spoke in the yard, and Li Changfeng didn't go in either. He gently put down the firewood and stood in the firewood room outside the yard. He patted the dust on his body, looked at the yard again, turned and walked out, but he still didn't. Not long after walking, he saw Butcher Liu standing at the intersection with a smile on his face.
"Uncle Liu."
"Changfeng, let's go, go to Uncle Liu's house for a drink, I'm here to drink with you!"
Li Changfeng thought about what happened in the yard, nodded, and walked behind Butcher Liu. When he went back, he could only face his closest family members in embarrassment.
Butcher Liu's house was a few minutes away from Li's yard, and he arrived in a short while.
"Changfeng is here? Come in, Liu Amo has prepared the appetizers!" Liu Amo looked at Li Changfeng and immediately greeted him warmly, which made Li Changfeng a little confused, he always felt that Liu Amo Enthusiasm is a little too much.
"Come on, sit down."
Butcher Liu watched his daughter-in-law give him a secret wink and turned to leave, and began to chat with Li Changfeng.
"Li Laosan is making trouble again?" Butcher Liu asked with a fried bean in his mouth.
Li Changfeng took a sip from the bowl full of wine and nodded silently. He and Butcher Liu's house were close and familiar.
"What do you plan to do?"
Li Changfeng took another sip without frowning, "Let's split it up, it's all quiet!"
Thinking of the task given by his daughter-in-law, Butcher Liu thought about it and asked, "What do you think about that king?" Although his words were not pleasant, this was also to find out if there was someone in Li Changfeng's heart. Recruited in, and there was someone in my heart that was not easy to handle.
