As soon as Xu Qiuliang came in, his eyes were not enough. After drinking gruel for half a month, he was greedy for everything and wanted to eat everything. Finally, he asked Lin Erhu to steam a sausage for him and cut it into slices.

I got a few spicy and sour radishes, a small plate of spiced beef jerky, and a small plate of spicy fried fish.

The most important thing was the two jars of wine placed by the wall. Xu Qiuliang smelled good and asked Lin Erhu to boil a pot for him.

Lin Erhu took out the wine and side dishes one by one, and cut half a braised pork knuckle for him.

Xu Qiuliang didn't stay here any longer. He found a food box, packed it in, took it home and drank it slowly.

Before going out, he said to Lin Erhu: "I haven't tested your homework for more than half a month. Don't forget to study there early tomorrow."

Lin Erhu said "yes" respectfully, watched Xu Qiuliang go away, and then closed the door.

When Lin Xiaoman came back after packing up the warehouse, Xu Qiuliang had already left. After hearing that Lin Erhu said that he only took away a few dishes of snacks and a small pot of wine, Lin Xiaoman lightly poked Lin Erhu's forehead and said, "Mr.

Come back, why don't you just take these things with you? We don't want my husband to think that our family is stingy, so you can pack up some snacks and a jar of wine to send to my husband."

Lin Erhu was helpless, "I only thought he wanted to dine in, but I didn't know he turned our house into a takeaway."

"Stop talking about this, let's see if we can pack a few more items as a New Year's gift and send them to my husband. I happened to take a few items to visit Uncle Er Lai and Grandma Fourth. The road is blocked these days and they are going to be very anxious.

”

Now the fourth grandma and the second uncle live in Xu Qiuliang's house, so the siblings don't have to go out separately.

But I prepared two portions for the New Year's gift. I brought one homemade roast chicken and one smoked rabbit, ten steamed bean buns, a knife of pork belly and a braised pork knuckle for my fourth grandma's house, and I also filled half a basket.

The cabbage grown in the house. In addition to these, they also carried two bundles of firewood on their backs, so as not to be embarrassed to light a fire in someone else's house.

Xu Qiuliang was given a few pastries, a roast chicken, a piece of meat, two fish and two large skewers of sausages, and he also got two jars of wine.

There aren’t many things left that I prepared for the New Year at home. If I don’t have the same New Year’s gifts, I might as well just give them whatever I have.

Seeing Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu coming over, Fourth Grandma shed tears of excitement, "Xiaoman... Erhu..."

After shouting, Lin Xiaoman was choked up and speechless. Lin Xiaoman was shocked and thought that besides the collapse of the house, something else happened at home.

Fortunately, after questioning, I found out that the Fourth Grandma had not suffered much these days. Because she was older, the porridge Lu Jin gave her was more rice than others. She was mainly worried about the heavy snow and the

I wonder what is happening to the houses in the city now.

Also, this time the house collapsed, it reminded her of the scene the year before last when a dragon turned over, her daughter-in-law was crushed to death, and her son also injured his leg. She was afraid that the tragedy would happen again. She had been feeling panicked these days, but she didn't dare to mention it to Lin Erlai.

Lin Xiaoman seemed to have a backbone.

Lin Xiaoman comforted, "Fourth Grandma, nothing is better than nothing. Aren't you and Er Lai Shu both fine this time? We will rebuild the house in the coming year and build it solidly. We will not be afraid of anything in the future."

”

"Yes! Build a big house and build it solidly." Grandma No. 4 nodded vigorously.

Just as he was talking, Xu Qiuliang knocked on the door outside, and Lin Erlai opened the door, "Mr. Xu, come in quickly, the room is warm."

Xu Qiuliang, however, held the meat in one hand and the fish in the other: "This is a New Year's gift from Wei Zhen. I don't have anyone here who can cook, so I just want to exchange it with you for something cooked."

Lin Erlai naturally would not disagree, "Okay, Xiaoman brought me roasted chicken, smoked rabbit and pork knuckles. What do you want to change sir?"

Xu Qiuliang said: "I also have roast chicken at my place, so let's switch to smoked rabbit."

Lin Er came to see the meat and fish he had sent, and only exchanged a smoked rabbit to take advantage of him. He thought for a while and said: "I will cut half of the braised pork knuckle for you. I will wait until the meat is cooked, sir."

You can also come and eat together."

Xu Qiuliang was not polite, "Okay, I still have two skewers of sausages over there. I'll have a drink with you when they're steamed."

After the two agreed and exchanged the New Year's gifts, Xu Qiuliang walked back slowly with the exchanged things, and muttered proudly: "I have accepted a good student, unlike some people who don't give New Year's gifts as gifts."

It’s none of his fault.”

Lin Xiaoman still thought he was talking to someone, but then she heard Lu Jin's voice coming from the room next to her: "Aren't you afraid that the snow will slip in the winter and your old man will fall again, so I brought him here?"

Xu Qiuliang was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time. After holding it in for a long time, he could only say one sentence: "I am young and powerful!"

In exchange for a slight scoff from Lu Jin.

Lin Xiaoman didn't expect that Lu Jin, who never said much in front of her, would be so...lively in private, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Grandma Four also laughed, "They are almost sixty years old together, and they bicker together all day long."

Lin Xiaoman calculated and wrote the information about Lu Jin. He was born in the 35th year of Jiaxiang. Emperor Jiaxiang reigned for 42 years. Now it is the 11th year of Qinghui, but he is only one year older than himself?

When Lin Xiaoman went out, Lu Jin came out to stop her and called her aside. It could be seen by people coming and going, but it would not make people feel that there was anything ulterior between them.

Lu Jin said: "I asked people to inquire secretly about the two families you mentioned before. Qi Shuixian is a bit cunning, but Lin Dajiao is a bit more aggressive, but she is down-to-earth and upright. I would like to ask you to inquire about the family of Chief Lin.

, if his family is willing, they will invite a matchmaker to come to their door to negotiate a match."

"Is this... Mr. Xu willing?"

Lin Xiaoman didn't expect that Lu Jin was sincere when he said he wanted to be a matchmaker for Xu Qiuliang, and even went to inquire about her, but would Xu Qiuliang be willing? He is almost forty, and he would have gotten married long ago if he wanted to.

Lu Jin nodded, "I asked him and he didn't object."

After saying that, he seemed to feel that these words were expressed out of concern for Xu Qiuliang, and hummed: "It doesn't matter whether he wants it or not, I just want to marry him a shrewd man and scold him eight times a day."

Lin Xiaoman clicked his tongue in his heart: A dead duck will have a tough mouth.

"Okay, then I'll go to Second Grandpa's house and ask, but this matter probably depends on Da Jiaogu's own wishes. In the past, it wasn't that no one wanted to be a matchmaker for Da Jiaogu, but the people who spoke to her were not very good. Dajiao

My aunt kicked everyone out. As long as my eldest daughter doesn’t want to do it, the second grandpa’s family can’t do anything to her.”

I thought Lu Jin would look disappointed, but he suddenly grinned and said, "I don't like the best. Let the old man know that not everyone cares about him!"

Yes, I am obviously concerned about the loneliness of the other person, and no one knows what is good or bad. I have gone through many inquiries about the person I picked, but they just refused to say anything nice.

"Okay, sir, just wait for the news from me. I will definitely handle this matter properly."
