Aunt He curled her lips, calmly pulled Mr. He to sit down and said:

"I know you're busy, but it's not easy for our aunt and sister-in-law to meet each other, so you have to say hello to me. My sister-in-law won't delay you for long. Besides, there are still two sisters-in-law of yours greeting you outside. My aunt-in-law is doing well.

say something."

Aunt He never spoke in secret in front of this sister-in-law. He was also used to her temper and knew that she would definitely have something to discuss with her now, so she waited for her to continue talking.

Aunt He: "Sister-in-law, you see that Qiangzi has reached the age of marrying a wife. Can you tell your brother-in-law and ask him to work in your shop and learn a craft from the masters, so that we can get married in the future?"

"

Hearing her mention about Qiangzi, Mrs. He immediately became unhappy:

"Sister-in-law, didn't Qiangzi come to my workshop to work in the spring? He couldn't bear the hardship and ran back because he didn't want to continue working. Why do you bring this up again?"

Qiangzi was the eldest son of Aunt He, who was more than two years younger than Shuanzi. At the beginning of spring, Aunt He dragged him to the He family and Yao Tiezhu, begging their aunt and uncle to give Qiangzi business in the Yao family.

Arrange a good location here.

Aunt He repeatedly told Qiangzi that he might be tired if he went out to work for the first time. It would be better to find a place where the work is easier and the wages are higher, such as working as a waiter in a shop.

At that time, Mrs. He scolded her sister-in-law for not being able to spoil her children like this, and she didn't expect to earn much as a clerk in a shop. After saying that, she arranged for Qiangzi to learn the craftsmanship in a carpentry workshop, because he was also her own nephew.

Who knew that when Qiangzi saw that his elder brother Shuanzi was also in the carpentry workshop, and was still a small manager, his mentality immediately became unbalanced, and he said that he would not work under the same roof with Shuanzi. Aunt He also said a few words on the side.

Sour words.

Mrs. He had no choice but to transfer him to the roast duck workshop. She agreed that as long as Qiangzi did well, he would be transferred to the shop. This satisfied Aunt He. As a result, Qiangzi worked in the workshop for less than two years.

After a month, I couldn't stand the hard work and ran back.

Now that he was telling her this again, Mr. He felt angry.

Aunt He disagreed and said, "It's not our fault, Qiangzi. I asked, and Qiangzi said that the job you assigned him last time was not easy to do. Killing ducks every day is tiring and smelly. Our Qiangzi has been in poor health since he was a child.

Okay, if you can’t do that kind of hard work, why don’t you change it to something lighter?”

Seeing her taking it for granted, Mrs. He said patiently:

"There is no easy work in the workshops or shops. Where can I find it for him? Embroidery is easier. Women do it."

Aunt He: "Isn't there a carpentry workshop? I have figured it out, it is better to make money and learn skills at the same time. If you put Qiangzi in and let him learn to make toys from the master, Qiangzi will definitely be able to

Do it well."

Aunt He thinks that a carpentry workshop is better, where you can learn the craftsmanship and earn more money once you learn how to do it.

He looked at her angrily and said: "Sister-in-law, have you forgotten that it was Qiangzi who didn't want to go to the woodwork workshop at first, and he said he didn't want to see Shuanzi, but now he can't go in if he wants to.

, Not to mention there is no shortage of people there, even if there is a shortage of people, carpentry work is more tiring than butchering ducks, are you sure that Qiangzi can persist?"

Mrs. He felt angry when she remembered the contempt that could not be concealed on his face when Qiangzi mentioned Shuanzi as his eldest brother in front of her.

Even if the sister-in-law doesn't want to see Shuanzi, after all, she is not her own flesh and blood, but her three children all look down on Shuanzi, which makes He feel uncomfortable, and Qiangzi himself is too lazy to eat.

He really didn't like this nephew, so she really didn't want to deal with Qiangzi's affairs.

When Aunt He saw that her sister-in-law was speaking very rudely, her eyes rolled around a few times, and she pretended not to care and said:

"Forget it, let's not talk about Qiangzi for now. You see how good you are to Shuanzi. You worry about Shuanzi before and after his marriage, but Qiangzi is also your nephew. You, as an aunt, can't

Can't be partial.

But this time I come here, I really have something else to discuss with you, sister-in-law, you must promise me this time."

He looked at her warily: "What's the matter?"

Aunt He chuckled: "

Of course it's Xingzi's marriage. As you know, Xingzi has always liked her cousin Erlin. Erlin is nineteen this year, right? We haven't talked about a suitable marriage yet, so maybe she also has our Xingzi in her heart.

Now that Xingzi has reached the age of proposing marriage, you can run errands and pull strings. Maybe the two children are destined to be married in the previous life, and Yue Lao will be waiting..."

When Mrs. He heard that her sister-in-law still refused to give up, she couldn't sit still. She hurriedly waved her hands and said:

"No, no, stop it quickly, sister-in-law, why are you still thinking about Erlin? In the past two years, you mentioned it to my second brother and sister several times, in and out of words. Do you think they have responded to you? Why haven't you come up yet?

Where are you determined to give up?"

Mrs. He remembered that when they had dinner together just now, her sister-in-law tried to get close to Mrs. Liu several times, but she was dismissed by Mrs. Liu with a few words. It was obvious that she did not like Xingzi, but her sister-in-law still refused to give up.

Aunt He really didn't give up. Seeing that the matchmaker who arranged for Erlin to marry her was about to break down the Yao family's door, how could she not be anxious?

He grabbed He's hand and said eagerly:

"The two children were still young in the past two years, and your second brother and sister still wanted to find a literate girl for Mr. Er Lin, and I didn't dare to mention it more, but haven't they been found yet?

Let me tell you, when you marry a wife, you don’t ask a teacher. She can read but can’t make a living. How many young people are as lucky as Dalin to marry a daughter from a scholar’s ​​family? That’s almost it. You and the second child’s family

I can’t say for sure...”

He really couldn't bear to listen, so he interrupted her and said:

"Sister-in-law, why are you thinking about good things? If you really want to find a good in-law for Xingzi, be more realistic and stop thinking about my Erlin."

Mr. He is too lazy to talk to his sister-in-law anymore. Nowadays, the people who come to marry Erlin are not to mention the wealthy squires in the countryside. There are even a few rich ladies from wealthy families in the city. His second uncle is the only one.

I don't like it.

It’s not that she despises her own niece, it’s just that Kyoko has no looks, no character, no food, and can’t do anything. The couple chose Kyoko as her daughter because their heads were caught in the door.

daughter-in-law.

Aunt He saw that she had been talking for a long time, but her sister-in-law was not willing to agree to anything, so she couldn't help but secretly pouted, she didn't like this and she didn't like that, I wanted to see what kind of wife Erlin could find in the future.

Thinking like this in her heart, Aunt He still said it nicely:

"What should we do, Kyoko? Such a good girl is not afraid of being picked on by her looks, temper, and character. She only pities us, a pair of incompetent parents. I hope you can give your niece a good look."

, it also fulfills your wish to be an aunt, doesn’t it?”

He was so beaten up by her that she asked patiently:

"Then sister-in-law, tell me, what do you want to find for Kyoko?"

Aunt He thought about it for a while, stretched out her fingers and pinched them one by one and said:

"Your eldest brother and I don't have high requirements. At least the other person's family should be in good condition, with land and a house. It's best to be related to your family. My husband's family has a good temper and is honest and capable. We don't want too many brothers in the family. It's better if we don't have any. It's best to be from above.

Having an elder sister means that even if the elderly in the family get sick in the future, my own daughter can take care of her..."

Aunt He clapped her fingers and thought as she spoke. Mrs. He was dumbfounded and could not speak for a while.

Mr. He turned his face to one side and said, "I have no idea. Just follow the pattern and find it yourself."

Aunt He was a little angry when she saw her sister-in-law giving up and was about to say something else when the sound of wheat ears came in from outside: Chinese website

"Sister-in-law, are you here? Our mother is going back."

Mrs. He's head was swollen from being entangled. When she heard Maisui calling her, she took the opportunity to throw away Aunt He's hand, stood up and opened the door of the box and walked out. Aunt He had no choice but to follow her out.

When Mai Sui saw the two people coming out, she smiled and stepped forward to say a few polite words to Aunt He. Aunt He responded with a smile on her face, and saw Uncle He coming over with three children. They had been out for a long time and had to go back to feed them quickly.

Duck.

After sending Uncle He and his family away, Mai Sui saw that Mrs. He looked tired, and she guessed that Aunt He had said something disturbing. Mai Sui didn't like to inquire about other people's family affairs, so when she met her sister-in-law

She didn't want to say anything and didn't ask too many questions. She just advised her to go back to the backyard with Mrs. Tao to rest. Anyway, the guests here had almost left, and she, the second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law were still here. It would be fine if the third sister-in-law stayed.

Mrs. He was helping her mother-in-law to go downstairs when Bai Qiaoer came over with her son Qilin in her arms and whispered to Mr. Tao: "Mom, Sizhu asked me to go back to the shop over there with him later. He said this

There are too many people, so I will follow him there in a moment?"

Bai Qiaoer has never been out since she was sent back to the village last time. Today the restaurant is opening and the whole family is here to celebrate, so they have the opportunity to come with them. Yao Sizhu also came from the roast duck shop to help, seeing that there are arrangements to be made here

There were many people staying there, so I thought of taking my wife and son back to stay at the roast duck shop.

Mrs. Tao looked straight at Bai Qiaoer: "Your mother's family has also entered the city."

Mrs. Tao said so confidently that Bai Qiaoer was shocked. How did the old woman know? She thought she had sneaked out to meet her mother and sister-in-law, and no one saw her.

Bai Qiaoer hugged her son tightly with a guilty conscience. Just when she was about to say nothing, Tao said again:

"We, the Yao family, are not cruel people. Even though we are broken off, we can't stop you ladies from meeting in private. I just want to say, don't let your Bai family show up in front of us again and dirty our eyes!"

Bai Qiaoer swayed and almost lost her balance. She opened her mouth and finally said:

"I know I won't let them come to my door again. My mother just came to see Qilin and has already left."

Mrs. Tao glared at Bai Qiaoer so sternly that Bai Qiaoer lowered her head and did not dare to look at her again. Then she turned around and was helped downstairs by Mr. He and Maisui.

Bai Qiaoer stood there awkwardly and aggrieved for a while, then slowly went downstairs to find Yao Sizhu with her son in her arms.

After a busy day, the old couple couldn't bear it anymore, so they went to the house in the backyard to rest early. After that, they wandered around the county town for another three or four days, catching up with Lin Xiumu's four days, so they took their grandchildren back together.

Arrive at Shangyao Village.

Finally lying on the hot kang in their own home, the old couple felt the warmth under their bodies comfortably, and their minds were filled with the things they had done in the county in the past few days.

"As I get older, I enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren. As an old woman, I also visited the county town and entered big restaurants and shops. It's quite good."

After a long time, the old lady said leisurely.

Father Yao rolled his eyes at his wife: "The children asked you to go out for a walk earlier, but you didn't want to go out."

Mrs. Tao chuckled: "You said, all these grand restaurants and shops belong to our family?"

Dad Yao: "Isn't that right? We've been eating and staying in restaurants these days. If it wasn't our family's, how much would it cost? Did you pay for it or did I pay for it these days?"

After a moment of silence, Tao continued, "The county magistrate has come to congratulate us."

Dad Yao: "Isn't that right? I, Yao Laosan, am a mud-legged person, but I have sat and had several meals with the county magistrate."
