Begging You to Break Off This Engagement!

Matchmaker Qiao went to the Luo family for three days, and finally wrote back to Luo Yong, saying that the Luo family agreed to discuss marriage.When Luo Yong got the news, he immediately went to ask Xi Yanqing for help, asking him what he needed to buy to go to Luo's house.

When Xi Yanqing married Luo Fei at that time, he did not have these previous steps. The three steps of "Na Cai", "Ask the name" and "Na Ji" were all omitted. He started with "Na Zheng" in the six rituals.But that doesn't mean he doesn't know what to give.

Gift giving is either according to the rules, or it's what you like.Xi Yanqing felt that the safest thing to do was to give them both.

So Luo Yong bought some nuts, three feet of shoecloth, and a wooden comb to Luo's house.

Because Luo Yong has no elders, Xi Yanqing went with him.Originally Xi Yanqing and Jing Rong went together, but when they entered the door, Luo Yong suddenly changed his mind and refused to let Jing Rong accompany him.Luo Yong felt that Jing Rong had red lips and white teeth, so don't be dazzled by Luo Ru.Although Luo Ru may not see it, what if? !

"Are you too unconfident in yourself?" Jing Rong was speechless.

"Anyway, Jing Rong, don't follow me in." Luo Yong said, "Are you a brother? If you are a brother, you can either go back and wait for me, or wait for me here!"

"That's right, you bastard, go in quickly, I do what I like." Jing Rong looked at his outfit, "Tsk, I have to go back and change my clothes." Clean and tidy, it looks good, but it is not suitable for work.

"I don't think it will take long, or you can wait here for a while." Xi Yanqing said, "It's just colder." It's the Chinese New Year, and it's the coldest time of year every year.

"Don't worry about me, you go in first." Jing Rong rubbed his hands, "If you don't come out later, I will go to Han Yang's house first." The second uncle of the Han family has already contacted about the pasture, and he also After paying the money, the other party will help deliver it within two days.He went to see if it was delivered.

Xi Yanqing followed Luo Yong into Luo's house.

Not to mention Luo Yong's excitement at the moment, Jing Rong could tell from behind that this guy was both excited and nervous.

Seeing his brother's bear-like appearance, Jing Rong smiled unconsciously, and then walked back and forth at the door of Luo's house leisurely.Yes he was treading on footprints.

It snowed last night, and the Luo family compound was swept clean. There were three piles in the yard, but the gate was not cleaned up, and because not many people set foot on it, the snow surface was smooth and clean.Now that the sun is shining, it is so dazzling.

Jing Rong raised his head to look at the sky, and then he narrowed his eyes slightly due to the light.There was a smile on the corner of his lips, obviously the sunny day brought him a good mood.

In winter in the north, it will not be particularly cold when there is no wind.Jing Rong stood facing the light for a while, then continued to walk around.Like a child drawing a picture, he made a bunch of candied haws with his footprints in a short while.

"Squeak..."

There was the sound of a door opening behind him.Just now, I was so focused on stepping that I didn't hear the footsteps.Jing Rong also wondered why Xi Yanqing and the others came out so quickly, but how did they know that they saw a stranger when they turned around.

That person looked familiar, and Jing Rong wondered if he was Luo Fei's elder brother.

It was indeed Roger.But he had never seen Jing Rong, so he didn't talk to Jing Rong.At first, he felt that if Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong were friends, there would be no reason to stand at the door and not go in.Secondly, it was outside the gate of his house, which was close to his house but not completely belonged to his house. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with people walking around there.

The key point is that this person didn't speak when he came out.He was originally a person who was not very expressive, so if the other party didn't say anything, he didn't say anything.

As for Jing Rong, he actually wanted to say something, but the faint smile that appeared on Luo Ji's face after he glanced at the bunch of candied haws on the ground made him feel a little embarrassed, so he turned around and Went to Han Yang's house...

What's even more funny is that when he left, there was a person behind him.

Luo Ji is also going to Han Yang's house.His family was not big, and his parents invited Xi Yanqing and Luo Yong to be in the main house when discussing marriage, so his younger sister was in the hut.He came out just to avoid it.

It's too cold to stay outside, so I decided to go to Han Yang's house.It's just that the person in front seems to be... along with him?

Luo Ji's steps were longer than Jing Rong's. At first, Jing Rong was in front, but as he walked, Jing Rong was behind.

Jing Rong looked at the back in front of him, feeling more and more embarrassed as he walked, so he gritted his teeth: "This big brother wait a minute!"

Luo Ji stopped and turned around: "What's the matter, little brother?"

Jing Rong coughed lightly: "May I ask if it's Brother Luo Ji?"

Roger nodded slowly: "You are..."

Jing Rong clasped her fists: "Little brother Jing Rong, I moved to Huaping Village not long ago. Before...well, I was waiting for Brother Xi and Luo Yong in front of the elder brother's house."

Luo Ji smiled: "So it's Brother Jingrong. Brother Xi and my second brother often mention you."

Jing Rong also laughed: "Thank you, big brother, for your generous help. My younger brother came to Huaping Village for the first time, and he should have gone to see him at his home earlier, but he didn't get out because the sheep at home needed to be taken care of. I feel really ashamed."

Roger was not the type to argue.Although he did help this little brother who had never met before to repair the house, but it was because of Xi Yanqing's face, and it was not a big deal, so he just laughed and said: "Brother Jingrong You're welcome."

Jing Rong saw that Luo Ji was very easy to get along with, so he asked Luo Ji about Luo Yong's marriage proposal, and learned that Luo Ji was also going to Han Yang's house, so he chatted with him while walking.

After Xi Yanqing chatted with Luo Yong quickly and came out of Luo's house, he only had time to see two small figures from behind.If it weren't for good eyesight, they wouldn't even be able to guess who those two people were.

"Yeah, he's walking fast." Luo Yong looked at the two figures and said, "Brother Xi, I won't be back at noon today, I'll go to your place for a meal, and I'll ask Brother Qi to give me some advice on what to buy. What dowry gifts are suitable."

"Just say you want to eat my family's food, what excuses are you looking for? Don't I know what kind of bride price is suitable?"

"Hey, why do you have to say it if you know it?" Luo Yong whispered, "Oh, you don't know how unpalatable Jingrong's food is. It's not as good as mine. But he feels pretty good himself, tortured Kill me. You say how rough I am, I can eat ordinary things, but even I feel that I can't eat it... Anyway, you and Brother Qi will try it someday and you will know, it is really poisonous!"

"Is it that exaggerated? I really want to try it." I ate a big pot of rice in the military camp, and I didn't cook together when we were separated. Said he was curious.

With an expression of "Why are you so upset?", Luo Yong followed Xi Yanqing to find Luo Fei.

Seeing them coming back, Luo Fei hurriedly asked, "How are you doing? Is it going well?" Seeing Luo Yong's happy face, he said, "Forget it, needless to say, you can tell by Luo Yong's expression that it must be done, right? ?”

Luo Yong chuckled: "With Brother Qi's good words, I will prepare the dowry later."

Originally, the matchmaker should go to the ancestral temple for divination after asking the woman's name to see if they are suitable for marriage.But Luo Yong's elders are gone, and this is not his hometown, so the two steps of "asking name" and "Najib" are saved.

Luo Yong now only needs to prepare the dowry gift and send it over, and then pick an auspicious day to prepare for the wedding.

The problem now is that it is not easy to choose a day to welcome the relatives.Luo Yong is currently living in Jingrong's place, although there are two houses, it is not easy to get married there.And by the time he finishes building the house, it will probably be summer.Half a year doesn't sound like a long time, but when he thinks that half a year is 180 days, Luo Yong is like an eggplant beaten by frost.

But there was nothing he could do about it.

The Luo family insisted that Luo Ru not be able to marry until summer, which was naturally related to the fact that Luo Yong did not have a house of his own now, and another part was due to the eldest Luo Ji.Although Luo Ji kept saying that he had no intention of remarrying for the time being, Luo Tian and Li Yuehua didn't think so.They still feel that the second and third child are all married, but the eldest has been alone all the time. It's not good, and it's not good to say it.It's just that I have been looking for a matchmaker recently, but I haven't met a suitable marriage partner.Either the woman's family felt that the burden of being the elder sister-in-law was too heavy, or Li Yuehua was dissatisfied with the woman's family.

Li Yuehua felt that although her eldest son was married once, he couldn't just make do with one just because of this, right?

But she wholeheartedly wanted to let her eldest son marry another wife before her daughter got married. How could it be that easy?

"Mother, do I have to find a girl's house? Or a younger brother?" Luo Yong and Xi Yanqing went to the town to deliver ice cream and buy a betrothal gift, and Luo Fei was sent to Luo's house. Hearing Li Yuehua's concern, Ask Li Yuehua, "Do you still remember that when Han Xu got married, he had a cousin who came over?"

"Remember." Li Yuehua said, "That kid from the Tian family, right? Your elder brother met him before."

"Ah? Why don't I know when it happened?" Luo Fei was confused.Fortunately, he was still thinking, if his elder brother didn't have strict requirements on gender, let Han Xu tell him if it would work... He had a pretty good impression of Tian Wenyu.

"It wasn't when Han Xu got married. I asked your aunt about it. But people in the Tian family didn't think much about it. I'm afraid they knew about your elder brother's constant thoughts about your sister-in-law, so they were worried about the child. Even if you get married, you won't be able to walk into your elder brother's heart."

"That's very difficult." Luo Fei said, "But I don't know anyone else." And this place doesn't support free love, so when will his elder brother get married?Luo Fei took the sewing basket and sat in the kitchen, "Sambo, what shall we eat later?" He came over after having breakfast at home, and Luo's family changed to two meals a day not long after winter came.He didn't want to disturb the meal time at home at noon, but he was really hungry by now.It's already afternoon.

"Second brother, what do you want to eat?" Luo Ru had already steamed steamed buns in the pot, but hadn't figured out what to cook yet.

"I want something cold." Luo Fei licked his lips, "Can I make some shredded radish salad for my second brother? The sweet and sour one."

"No." Luo Ru said, "Brother Xi told you before he left that he couldn't serve you cold food. He said that you have eaten too much cold food lately."

"Tsk, he's not here. If you don't tell me, who knows?!" Luo Fei said, "Besides, you are my sister first, and then his sister-in-law. Do you think you have to stand by my side? ?! And haven’t you heard? When you’re pregnant, you can’t eat what you want, and the eyes are red after the baby is born! Do you want your nephew to have red eyes like a bunny in the future?”

"Second brother, don't talk nonsense." Luo Ru frowned, "What's the matter?"

"Why not?!" Luo Fei had a serious expression at first, but then he looked like he was about to cry, "Sanbao, do you think the second brother can still lie to you about this? This is related to your nephew, You just have the heart to watch me worry all the time?"

"This..." Luo Ru hesitated for a while, "That's fine, but you can't tell Brother Xi!"

"Don't worry, I can't tell him." Luo Fei said, "Then I want a big plate, more sour than sweet."

"Yeah." Luo Ru went to the cellar to get radishes, and when she came back, she made sweet and sour radish shreds for Luo Fei.As for the rest of the family, she made a stew with cabbage and potatoes.It's like this in the countryside. Once winter comes, we just turn over and over the few dishes, but it's good enough to eat enough.

Luo Fei ate four big steamed buns with sweet and sour shredded radish, and his stomach was round, and then he sat on the kang and waited for Xi Yanqing to pick him up.In fact, he can go back by himself, but Xi Yanqing will definitely be worried when he finds out, so forget it.

Luo Ru looked at Luo Fei's stomach at this moment: "Second brother, do you think you are a girl or a boy here?"

Luo Fei said, "I don't know either."

And I don't have see-through eyes...

Li Yuehua said without thinking: "It must be a kid. When I was pregnant with your eldest brother, I was always hot and always wanted to eat cold."

"What about being always cold like Han Xu?" Luo Fei asked.

"It's either a girl or a little brother." Li Yuehua said, "But no one can tell if I haven't met my baby. We have to meet face to face."

"That's true." Luo Fei yawned, leaning against the wall and almost falling asleep.

The matter of getting sleepy after eating probably has to be implemented from beginning to end.

After Xi Yanqing returned to the village, he didn't go back to Luo's house first, but sent all the betrothal gifts back to Luo Yong's current house with Luo Yong, and then drove the ox cart back to Luo's house.At this moment, Luo Ji came to help unload the truck and feed water to the cattle, while Xi Yanqing took some food bought in the town and went into the house to find Luo Fei.

Surrounded by a familiar aura, Luo Fei opened his eyes: "Are you back?"

Xi Yanqing said "hmm": "I bought you sour berries and rice cakes, do you want some?"

Luo Fei was about to say yes, but he hiccupped before he could speak!Suddenly, a smell of radish flooded Xi Yanqing's face...

Xi Yanqing's expression was complicated: "Did you eat carrots at noon?"

Luo Fei felt guilty, and turned his eyes away: "Yeah. Brother Qing, where are you talking about rice cakes? Where are they?"

How come you still hiccup after sleeping in the trough? !Fortunately, no matter how powerful Xi Yanqing is, it is impossible to smell the smell of raw radish or cooked radish!

Luo Fei rolled his eyes, secretly delighted.He took a piece of rice cake that Xi Yanqing gave him, and ate it without thinking.

At this moment Roger came in.Xi Yanqing asked casually, "Brother, what radishes did you eat at noon today?"

Luo Ji said very frankly: "No, Er Bao ate it. He added a bunch of vinegar and it was so sour that he could eat it by himself."

Luo Fei, who was blocked by Xi Yanqing, couldn't wink at his elder brother in time: "..."

Brother!This is from the same root!Why is it too urgent to meet each other, brother!

Don't you know that once you say that the big tiger has added vinegar, you will know that what I eat is raw?If he knows that I ate raw, he must know that I ate cold!

Luo Fei was speechless, and Luo Ru silently went back to her cubicle.

Xi Yanqing turned her head and glanced at Luo Fei: "It seems that the food is delicious. Let's go, it's not easy to go when it gets dark."

Luo Fei said "hmm", and walked out slowly.When he went out the gate, he hugged Xi Yanqing's arm flatteringly: "Brother Qing, is everything going well in town today?"

Xi Yanqing heard the words and said: "It's a small episode. Some people saw that our ice cream is selling well, so they also learned how to make it, and the selling price is cheaper than ours."

Xi Yanqing also only found out when he heard the owner of the restaurant say it during delivery today, and someone started grabbing market share so quickly.It's funny to say that there are not many people in this town, and it sells hundreds of them a day because everyone thinks it's new at first, and some people buy several as soon as they buy it.In the past two days, the sales volume had seen a decrease, but there were still people involved.

"Then are they delicious?" Luo Fei asked.

"I asked Luo Yong to buy two and try them. The taste is similar to ours. But so far, they only sell popsicles and pure milk. But adding eggs is probably a matter of time."

"Then what shall we do? Should we continue to sell?"

"Of course it's sold. The sales in the county are much higher than this. As long as we can maintain the quality and try to be ahead of others, that's fine. But Brother Shi asked me something today."

"what's up?"

"He asked me if I would like to live in the town in the future. Now we have more and more shipments, and it doesn't matter if we go back and forth, anyway, there is not much work in winter. But no matter how many words, we will be too busy. It's better now, What about when the weather is warmer? At that time, the ice cream will definitely sell better than it is now, and the two of us alone will definitely not be able to do it. The most important thing is that if you want to ship more, you have to expand the production area. We don’t have enough here , is it possible that we still build the factory building?" In that case, if the money in hand is not enough, the new house will definitely not be built again, and the risks will also increase.

"What do you think Big Brother Shi means?"

"I think what he means is that he wants to expand the production area to cope with future sales." Xi Yanqing asked, "Daughter-in-law, do you want to live in a town?"

"No." Luo Fei answered very positively, "I like to eat the vegetables I grow myself, and I also like the atmosphere of the countryside. Maybe it will change in a few years, but for now I don't want to go to the town at all. There are What’s good? There are more shops, it’s more convenient to buy things, but I think it’s not as good as the countryside in other aspects. Besides, there are relatives and friends here, and if we go to the town, we don’t know a few people.”

"It's similar to my idea. So I have an idea." Xi Yanqing locked the door and pushed Luo Fei to sit on the chair. "If I want to, I'll tell Brother Shi all the tricks of making ice cream now. We only sell technology, which is regarded as technology investment. As for production and manufacturing, we don’t care. Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to take care of both in the beginning of spring. Unless we don’t plant the land at all, or lease out all the land.”

"Do you like farming?"

"I like to see the seeds I plant bloom and bear fruit." Xi Yanqing poked Luo Fei's stomach with a smile, "This little fruit is my most proud work."

"Speaking of it is crooked!" Luo Fei slapped Xi Yanqing's hand away, "Brother Shi and the others will be happy? After all, the ice cream we make now doesn't have much technical content."

"I think he hopes this way. To put it bluntly, their foundation is much stronger than ours. We are doing it in such a small way, and sometimes it is not conducive to the overall development. It's just that we are the first to make ice cream. I figured it out, so Brother Shi and Brother Li must not take the initiative to bring it up. But Brother Shi said about making ice with saltpeter. He has already started to choose a site to build an ice cellar. This investment is too big, we can’t invest money now I went in, so I didn't say anything at the time. Brother Shi means that we will take [-]% of the profit from the profit at that time, and it will be regarded as an idea fee, that is, technology investment."

"Ten percent is actually a lot." Compared with building an ice cellar and managing sales, they just put forward an idea here.And it just so happens that the idea is worth a fortune.As for whether it is possible to be deceived, Luo Fei felt that they had nothing to be deceived by Shi Shi and Li Siyuan.

"So if you don't object, I want to just talk to Brother Shi like this." Xi Yanqing said, "Think about it."

"Don't think about it, just do what you think." Luo Fei said, "Didn't we agree that you will take care of the outside world and I will take care of the inside? I don't care about the outside things, as long as you don't starve me and the little tiger to death. "

"How do you know it's a little tiger? Maybe it's a little donkey?"

"My mother said it. When she was pregnant with my eldest brother, she was always afraid of heat and always wanted to eat cold food."

"I really want to see him soon." Xi Yanqing stroked Luo Fei's stomach and couldn't help but kiss it.

Luo Fei looked down at Xi Yanqing, his eyes sparkling.

It's been more than three months, so it should be ok...

Xi Yanqing lit the fire and got a big bucket of bath water for Luo Fei.He hugged Luo Fei horizontally, carefully put it into the bathtub, and sat in it himself...
