Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons
Chapter 331 Tacit understanding
At first, one or two people were so enthusiastic, and she didn't care. But when several people continued to be so enthusiastic, she began to wonder: "What's going on today?"
When she saw Xu Liyun, Mrs. Qi immediately expressed her doubts.
Hearing this, Xu Liyun almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She took the opportunity to tease the child to adjust her mood. When she looked up again, her face was full of innocence.
Of course, she couldn't tell her that it was her young master who compared her to a pig and disclosed the couple's private affairs.
"Ahem, do you have something to ask me?"
When asked this question, Mrs. Qi finally remembered the purpose of her visit.
"It's like this, my little sister-in-law is turning seventeen this year, and it's time to consider finding a good husband. We haven't found the right person before, so we've been putting it off. Now we finally have the right person, and we plan to set the wedding this year, and she'll get married next year when she turns eighteen."
When talking about her younger sister-in-law, Mrs. Qi was full of love. Her younger sister-in-law was not only smart, but also very sensible.
Her family carefully selected a partner for her, hoping that she could marry into a family that knew them well and could support each other.
"Already have a candidate?"
Xu Liyun couldn't help but recall what she had seen and heard in recent days.
"Yes, it was her eldest brother who chose him. His name is Liu Degui. We also asked Lanlan for her opinion, and she had no objection."
Since it was these two people, Xu Liyun told Mrs. Qi what she had seen before.
"Now that the candidate has been chosen, it is better to decide on it as soon as possible, so that the person will not give up and continue to pester us, which will affect the reputation of our girl."
When Mrs. Qi heard this, she was furious.
"Tell me, what kind of people are these? We clearly rejected him, but he still pursued my aunt-in-law relentlessly. Does our Qi family owe them the Fu family?"
Xu Liyun heard the hidden meaning in Mrs. Qi's words, which seemed to involve the affairs of Qi Yu and Fu Jun.
"I heard that guy is not from our village. Why didn't the villagers mention him? I thought he was from this village."
"Well, half of it, I guess. He's from Honggou Village next door, and his name is Hong Daming. He lost his parents when he was young, and although he has two uncles, they are not born of the same mother. Aunt Fu is his biological aunt, and she was worried that he would be bullied in Honggou, so she took him to our Zhangjia Village to raise him. He has been living in the village for these years, and occasionally goes back to Honggou to visit. Over time, the villagers got used to him, and even the children treated him as one of their own."
"His household registration is not here, so how will he get food, clothing and other daily expenses? Will he be supported by his aunt?"
Xu Liyun felt puzzled, after all, this man had hardly done any work recently.
"Fu Jun wanted him to work together, but he had an aunt who loved him, so he just let it go as soon as he acted like a spoiled child."
Fortunately, the Fu family does not have many people, otherwise Fu Jun would be exhausted sooner or later if he had to support the family alone.
"I see."
Xu Liyun thought to herself that she needed to know more about the affairs of the village.
"So you came to me today just for this?"
There is actually no need to tell outsiders about the Qi family's private affairs. At most, you can send a gift to express your feelings when the marriage is decided.
"We hope the village chief can help us find out what Liu Degui means."
"Why don't you ask the clan leader? The village chief has never done anything like this before. What if he messes up?"
Xu Liyun was a little puzzled. It didn't seem like the man took the initiative to propose marriage, but rather it seemed like the girl's family was attracted first.
Looking at Sister Qi's expression, she thought that the two families had already understood the matter tacitly.
"Well, we did ask, and Liu Degui agreed. The problem is that the eldest sister-in-law is the boss of the Liu family, and she is secretly planning to let Liu Degui marry a few years later."
Mrs. Qi curled her lips. Everyone knew that she just wanted Liu Degui to help take care of the child for a few more years.
In the small courtyard of the Liu family, several children were playing and running around. They were still young, the oldest was only eight years old, and the youngest was still babbling, surrounding their mother's lap.
Liu Degui, the eldest son of the family, works hard in a dusty brick factory every day. He invests every penny he earns into this big family without reservation. He looks forward to the day when his younger siblings grow up healthily. Only then can he truly consider his own future and perhaps have a little home of his own.
In the village, it is not uncommon to find brothers like Liu Degui who have not separated their families, but in his family, the eldest sister-in-law seems to intentionally or unintentionally obstruct his marriage, which has caused a lot of talk among the neighbors.
Especially Mrs. Qi, she couldn't get over the knot in her heart.
If Liu Degui's character had not been known to all and he was honest and reliable, she would never have easily agreed to let her beloved younger sister marry into such a complicated environment.
Mrs. Qi knows very well that marriage is not just a matter between two people, but also the union of two families. If you are not careful, it will affect your lifelong happiness.
"Liu Degui and I didn't want to make this public. We were worried that if my sister-in-law found out, both of us would lose face. So after thinking it over again and again, we decided to ask the village chief to mediate. Perhaps with the help of the village chief's prestige, there would be some turnaround."
Mrs. Qi said softly, her brows revealing helplessness and worry.
Although Liu Degui himself was not afraid of the turmoil at home, he was very worried that Qi Li would become the topic of conversation in the village because of this matter.
This concern is exactly the original intention of discussing with Xu Liyun today.
Xu Liyun recalled the only meeting with Liu Degui's sister-in-law. She looked gentle and there was no trace of domineering in her words and deeds. It was hard to believe that such a thing could happen.
Life is not easy. Perhaps it is under the pressure of life that we have to make certain choices.
After all, for a family to support five young children, the financial strain can be imagined.
"I'll find out somehow. You're welcome."
Xu Liyun agreed, already having a plan in mind.
Mrs. Qi was about to leave when she heard Xu Liyun's concern: "Don't do anything to the child because of this when you go back, okay?"
This sentence made Mrs. Qi a little stunned for a moment. When had she ever punished her child for no reason?
When Mrs. Qi returned to her tent full of suspicion, the scene before her made her heart tighten: the eldest son was strictly supervising the younger son to practice calligraphy, the tender little hands tightly grasped the brush, tears in the eyes, and two lines of undried tears on the little face.
When the little guy saw his mother come in, he seemed to have seen a savior, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.
Just as Mrs. Qi was about to ask the reason, she was pulled into the tent next door by her mother-in-law.
After some explanation, Mrs. Qi suddenly realized that the villagers' whispers along the way and Mrs. Zhang's hints all came from this.
Don’t hit children?
In this era, which child has not been beaten?
A surge of anger rose in her heart, and Mrs. Qi picked up a bamboo stick from the corner and walked straight towards the child's tent.
When the little boy saw his mother's serious expression, he was so scared that he dropped his pen and hurriedly hid behind his brother.
On weekdays, although his brother strictly required him to practice calligraphy, he cared for him and never did anything against him.
Whenever his parents got angry, his brother was always the first to stand up and protect him.
At this time, although Qi Yang was a little annoyed by his brother's frankness, he couldn't bear it when he saw his brother's frightened look, so he resolutely stood in front of his brother.
