Chapter 483 Shy

"You little brat, what are you looking at?" Qin Liupo stood up, stretched out her arm, and reached across the dining table, wanting to give little Jiang Erlang a slap on the face.

Little Jiang Erlang dodged and retreated. She tried her best to hit him but failed. She became even angrier and scolded, "Erlang, the elders are teaching you for your own good. How can you hide? Come here quickly and learn from them!"

Little Jiang Erlang frowned and shook his head to refuse: "Uncle Qin, Sister Xiaomi, and my eldest brother all said that if something is wrong, even if everyone is pressuring you to admit your mistake and accept the punishment, you can't admit it, otherwise it will make the mistake worse and help the evil."

Being confronted by the taciturn little Jiang Erlang, Qin Liupo was shocked and shouted, "Erlang, you have become smarter!"

Little Jiang Erlang felt a little shy and a little proud when he was praised. He felt that he was getting better and better.

Just when he was feeling proud, Uncle Qin scolded him: "Erlang, your mind is still too rigid, you need to be able to think outside the box... If the person who is forcing you to admit your mistakes and accept punishment is too powerful, and you still refuse to surrender, then you are courting death."

He also taught him: "If you encounter someone who is too powerful, you should first admit your mistakes and accept the punishment. After saving your life, you can find an opportunity to seek revenge later... Oh, as for you, Qin Liupo, you can refute directly without any worries."

"You just know how to bully me!" Grandma Qin Liu was furious and started crying to Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin.

Qin Xiaomi was too lazy to watch her act and asked directly: "Sixth Aunt, do you agree with the Lu family's marriage? Give me a definite answer quickly so that my grandfather can reply to the head of the Lu family."

Qin Laoliu quickly pulled Qin Liupo's sleeve and said, "Stop making trouble. This is a big matter concerning our son."

Qin Liupo then sat down, but she still had some concerns, thinking: "With the current financial situation of our Qin family, we can even marry a young lady from the prefecture."

Qin Xiaomi didn't even need to scold her. Grandma Qin said directly, "Okay, then you can find a wife for Ying and Jie in the city. My family will not be involved in this matter."

Seeing that Grandma Qin was really angry, Qin Laoliu scolded Grandma Qin Liu: "You old woman, please speak properly and stop talking about impossible nonsense!"

"I know." Qin Liupo replied seriously, "The Lu family is good, but the two girls do have some shortcomings... Fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law, please don't scold me. Who doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law who is good in every way?"

After hearing this, Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin stopped scolding her.

Qin Xiaomi said, "In the end, Aunt Six just dislikes Miss Lu Liu's family background and is afraid that Miss Lu Jiu will not be blessed... But a good match must be made. Uncle Ying is a man without big ideas, so he must marry a girl who can take on responsibilities. Miss Lu Liu has been helping her sister-in-law run the household since she was young, so she must be a man with big ideas."

"And Miss Lu Jiu, she is not unlucky, but truly blessed... Her parents died young, but because of this she became the daughter of the head of the Lu clan and his wife, and her status was elevated all of a sudden. This is like going from a poor family to a wealthy family. How can one have such luck if one is not blessed?"

"She also has land as a dowry. How many country girls can have land as a dowry? Brothers like Lu Dawen treat her well and even promise to give her a generous dowry. It can be seen that Miss Lu Jiu knows how to behave. At least she is not disliked by her brothers and sisters-in-law. She is a successful sister-in-law."

Qin Xiaomi paused, and Granny Qin Liu's eyes lit up: "Hearing what Xiaomi said, these two are really rare good girls. I agree, let Yingge marry... Lu Jiuya!"

This old woman is simply a person who despises the poor and loves the rich.

She was also greedy and didn't want both of her sons to belong to the Lu family, so she wanted Qin Jie to marry a girl from another big family.

Qin Xiaomi reminded him coldly: "What do you mean by marrying Miss Lu Jiu? Whether this matter can be accomplished depends on the girl's decision."

Fearing that it was not safe, she added, "Sixth Aunt, before the marriage is officially decided, don't tell anyone about it. If you damage the girl's reputation, your family won't get any dividends in the future."

This was going to kill Qin Liupo, so she immediately became honest: "Don't worry, Xiaomi, Liupo will definitely not go out and say anything nonsense!"

Granny Qin Liu begged Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin again: "Fifth Brother, Fifth Sister-in-law, this matter of investigation depends on your family... My grandfather left a message, saying that my husband and I are stupid, and if my family encounters a big problem, we will have to ask you two for help."

Qin Ying represented the Qin family to form an alliance with the local Lu family, so Grandpa Qin nodded and agreed: "My family will hire someone to find out about this matter...but you two have to keep your mouths shut. Don't leak anything before it's settled, otherwise don't blame me for asking the clan law."

what?

Clan law?

Qin Laoliu and his wife were stunned for a moment before they remembered that ever since they had a falling out with Qin Laoqi and his friends, the fifth brother had been the new patriarch of their branch.

Qin Laoliu assured: "Fifth brother, don't worry, my husband and I will keep our mouths shut!"

The matter was settled, and Grandpa Qin said, "Let's eat."

"Hey!" Qin Laoliu and his wife immediately stretched their wrists, wanting to have a big meal, but unfortunately, while they were talking, Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin had already put the delicious dishes into the bowls of everyone except them.

At this moment, there was only a layer of vegetable juice left on the plate, oh, and a few pieces of kudzu starch and wild vegetable cakes.

Grandma Qin Liu wanted to get angry, but when she looked at Qin Xiaomi, she knew what to do and automatically turned off the fire and just concentrated on eating.

……

The next day, before asking someone to inquire about the situation of the Lu family's daughter, Grandpa Qin specifically called Qin Ying to ask, "Brother Ying, do you have a girl you like? If you have someone in your heart, or if you don't like this marriage with the Lu family, Uncle Wu won't ask anyone to inquire."

After hearing this, Qin Ying blushed to the roots of her neck and said in a voice as small as a mosquito: "No, I don't have anyone I like, and I don't have any thoughts... As long as the girl doesn't dislike me, that's fine."

When they were fleeing from famine, he thought that they would die on the road. But now, not only have they survived, but they have also encountered a good marriage proposal, and the girl in question is from the clan leader's family. How could he dare to despise her?

Snapped!

Uncle Qin slapped him on the back of his head: "Are you a little girl? If you make a loud noise, you'll die!"

Qin Ying looked outside the house in a hurry. Seeing no one, she touched her head and said, "Second cousin, before we settle down, don't speak too loudly. If someone hears and spreads the news, it will damage the girl's reputation."

Uncle Qin clicked his tongue: "I didn't realize you were so kind to women."

Qin Ying's face turned even redder when she heard this: "Second cousin, this word is not good, you can't say it."

He is not good at studying, so he always feels that being sympathetic to women is similar to being accompanied by a beautiful woman...these two words are too embarrassing.

Uncle Qin was speechless. He grabbed his collar and said, "Don't waste time. Go into the mountains and teach the Huang family how to collect pine oil."

When they went into the mountains to look for herbs, they discovered that many pine trees in the mountains were producing pine resin on their own, so Xiaomi gave the Huang family another job.

When going into the mountains to chop firewood, you can also pick up pine resin and cut pine oil.

They are paid by the kilogram for the pine resin they pick, and by the tree for the pine oil they cut. Although they only earn a few cents a day, they can earn about 100 to 200 cents a month, which is a very good job.

The Huang family was very happy and waited at the west entrance of the village early this morning for the Qin family to take them into the mountains.

Dangdang Dangdang!

"Assemble, report the number of people..." Qin Ying shouted while beating the gong, calling the roll, and explaining the rules for entering the mountain. Then he carried the strange flag and led Huang Laoer and the others into the mountain.

"He's doing it quite well, but he's smiling all the time, which doesn't look dignified enough." Uncle Qin thought that this brat must be talking about marriage, so he couldn't control his laughter: "Tsk, he's really worthless."
