On the tenth day of the lunar new year, Zhao Changfu and his wife were sure to go out early in the morning with Xianfan in a new dress.
But Xianfan was too timid to say anything.
Li said: "Xianfan, what are you still doing? Get in the car quickly
Xianfan fiddled with his brand-new bright blue round collar dress and said, "aunt, it's strange to dress like this..."
Li said, "what's wrong! This is good material! It costs two liang silver to buy it outside! It took me half a month to make it for you
Xianfan said: "aunt, this dress I think it's just for the new year. "
Li said, "what do you want to keep? Although it's the new year's clothes I made for you, today is a blind date. How can I wear them in advance? Everyone says, "people depend on clothes." if you don't dress up, how can it be that the little red girl of the Li family doesn't like you? "
Xianfan said: "aunt, if the Li girls like me because I wear good clothes, it's called 'judging people by their appearance'! Such a girl must not be a good one. If she is like this, she can't even get into my eyes, not to mention the second and third sisters? Auntie, you wait for me, I'll come Then he turned and ran upstairs.
Li said: "this child! What a fool
After a while, Xianfan ran down with a brown smile and said, "aunt, I'm still the most comfortable to wear this!"
Li Shi glared at him and said, "if you don't like little red girl, don't cry with me!"
Xianfan said: "if you really don't look up to it, it's just that marriage has its own destiny. You can't force it at all."
Li said: "what a fool! Fool, you and I should take a good ride in the carriage and let your uncle drive! "
Xianfan said: "no! You are elders. How dare I take a ride in the car and let uncle drive the car? " He asked Zhao Changfu to come down. He climbed up and saw Li get into the car. Then he waved his whip and said, "OK, let's go!"
Li called out "ah" and said: "Xianfan, you are so busy driving. If little red girl sees you..."
Xianfan said in a loud voice, "what's the point? Anyway, the mill is near the Taohua river. There's plenty of water in the river. I'm worried about no place to wash my face? "
Sitting in the car, Li complained to Zhao Changfu: "Changfu, do you think Xianfan is a little silly?"
Zhao Changfu said with a smile: "where can I stay? I don't think he's stupid at all
Li said, "don't you stay? If you don't wear good clothes, you won't let him drive! It's not "what is it?"
Zhao Changfu said: "it's a good thing that Xianfan is big enough to understand us, isn't it?"
Li Shi looked at him and suddenly said, "yes! I forgot that you brought up Xianfan! You took him every day before he was two years old, didn't you? Even after you married me, you took him to the field every day. No wonder he was so stupid! It looks like you
Zhao Changfu said with a smile: "no! It's my fault again
When they arrived at Taohua village, they went all the way to the mill. Old man Li was about to open the door. When he saw them coming, he said with a smile, "but it's so early! I just opened the door. The Li family hasn't come yet! "
Li said with a smile, "if you don't come, you don't come. We'll just help you!"
Mr. Li said, "go, what can I do for you? It's rare to come here. It's better to go home and talk with your mother
Li Shi also has this meaning, because smile way: "that I go home to look for Niang now?" Then he told Zhao Changfu, "you help dad. Xianfan, do you want to go home with me or talk to my grandfather? "
Xianfan said: "aunt, I'll talk with my grandfather."
Li went home by himself.
As she walked back along the river bank, she saw that the weeping willows and Ficus microcarpa on both sides were very dense. She said to herself, "it's only two years since the river was widened, but these trees have grown so well! We know that the land is for trees. "
After walking for a while, she came to Lingyu's family school. She quietly approached the window and found Xianchang, who read the Scriptures carefully between the desks. She couldn't help laughing. The child was more and more sensible! But it's not the way to separate for a long time. After a year's waiting, I still have to invite my husband back to Xinghua village's private school to teach!
For fear of affecting the children's reading, she just took a look and left.
Back home, Mo was sweeping the floor at the door. Seeing her coming, he said with a smile, "are you coming? How early
Li Shi says with a smile: "just want to come early, good talk with Niang."
Mo said: "you go in and wait for me, and I'll go in and look for you after I've finished scanning!"
The mother and daughter talked for a while about Chunxing's mother-in-law, then about Zhao Changgui, and finally about the Li girl in Shiwan village.
Mo said: "I've seen the Li girl several times. She has two brothers, one younger brother and only one daughter. She hasn't been to the fields since childhood, but she's a good cook and does a lot of housework. It's just the same. She has a straight temper and many brothers in her family. If she follows her brothers for a long time, her temper will inevitably be a little hot, but she is also a reasonable person. "Hearing this, Li frowned: "hot temper? My dear mother, don't you think Miss Li is very good? "
Mo Shi way: "have a little temper just, where bad? Is Qing'er not hot tempered? How dare you say Qing'er is not good? Little red girl has the same temperament as Qing'er. I think she's very good. She's pretty and strong. If she's married, it won't be a problem to hold her for three years! "
Li said with a smile: "three years to hold two? That's not easy! "
Mo said: "when Xiao Hong was a child, she always played with her brother and brother everywhere. She ran faster than the young man! It's only in recent years that her parents have locked her up at home. Because she had only one daughter, and the whole family spoiled her and refused to let her go to the fields, her mother taught her to cook. Strange to say, she could cook alone! After a few years, few people can match the cakes they make! Is the sweet food made by your second aunt delicious? Xiaohong is better than her! Once, she brought a box of cakes and her parents to the mill to grind rice. She only asked her to be her daughter-in-law
Li said with a smile: "how old is brother Qing? Are you going to marry a daughter-in-law? "
Mo said: "you don't say, brother Qing is more than sixteen. Your second uncle and second aunt really want him to marry Xiaohong, but Xiaohong doesn't want to. She says she doesn't like younger girls. Qingge'er doesn't like bigger than himself, so it's OK to talk about it. I also heard your second aunt mention it. Then I remembered Xianfan and told you about it. "
Li said: "I see! I said, "well, how can my mother worry about Xianfan's marriage?"
