"Although she is outstanding, but...she seems to be older than sister-in-law, should she be married?" Shunniang didn't know how to think of this, so she asked Qi.

Seeing that Shunniang was getting serious, Mrs. Qi couldn't keep pinching her arm, so she let go.However, separated by a layer of Gebu, she also liked the feel of her hands, and felt that Shunniang's arms were strong and elastic...

"The slave family seems to have seen her have a daughter who looks like two or three years old. I don't know if she is being led by her mother-in-law or mother. The little girl calls her mother."

"Where is her officer?"

"I didn't see it... Maybe it's..."

"Is it reconciled or died of illness?" Shunniang spoke quickly, and said it all at once, but after she said it, she remembered that Yuan's elder brother died of illness, so saying so might cause her sister-in-law to feel sad.

The Qi family didn't have much reaction after hearing this, and retorted: "What the slave family said is that maybe Liang Erniang's officials are doing business in other places?"

Shunniang thought for a while and shook her head, and said, "What kind of business do you want to do? The family moves and never comes back. In addition, Liang Erniang has opened a tofu workshop. Do you want to do other business? Therefore, I'm sure, it's probably not as good as I guessed before. Not to leave. But, having said that, guess if there are any officials to do something, and there is no man in our family who wants to ask her to be his wife."

"Although there is no man in our family who wants to ask for a wife, there are women who want to ask for a son-in-law." At this time, Mrs. Liu, who had gone to the kitchen to put away dried tofu, suddenly appeared behind Shunniang and said with a low smile.

Shun Niang was taken aback, and immediately looked outside the door, then closed the door, turned around and walked to Liu Shi's side and said, "Mother, don't you get dizzy, please? If this word gets out, Let’s not even think about staying in Yangliu Town. It’s not right for me to look at you and Liang Sanlang today. If you continue like this, something bad may happen someday. I have to warn you, Don't let go of the idea of ​​finding a son-in-law for me, now I just want to earn more money and nothing else!"

It is still useful to say this, Liu thought about what he said and did when facing the Liang family today, it was indeed a bit abnormal.Seeing Liang Sanlang, she wanted to snatch such a vigorous young man to be her daughter Shunniang's son-in-law, but if Shunniang's identity was exposed, the Xi family would have no food and clothing, and she was afraid of the result.So she said right away, she couldn't hold back for a while, thinking of how happy she would be if a lovely young man like Liang Sanlang could become a couple with her own daughter... Well, anyway, she is now He could only watch that Liang Sanlang became someone else's son-in-law.

Shun Niang suddenly slapped her thigh, laughed and said that this Liang Sanlang is here, and Mrs. Wu next door must be attracted to her too. Hey, if she changes her goal from now on and wants to draw that Liang Sanlang to be her son-in-law, then It will be much easier for yourself.

Qi's side agreed: "Yes, yes, uncle is right."

She is as happy as Shunniang in her heart. If Xie Erniang likes Liang Sanlang, Wu Niangzi also goes to play Liang Sanlang's idea, and Shunniang has no one to covet, and An Anxin will work hard for this family, then this family can last forever. Keep it intact as it is now.Although she didn't dare to hope that Shunniang would fall in love with her one day, but if no one else appeared by Shunniang's side, she still had a glimmer of hope...

Mrs. Liu sighed, saying that Mrs. Wu really wanted to see Liang Sanlang as her son-in-law. The rent of the Xi family would probably go up, and there would not be so many big crabs. He ran into the stomachs of Liang Sanlang and Liang Erniang next door.

"Hahahaha!" Shunniang laughed out loud, feeling that she, a cheap mother, had never been so humorous before. After laughing, she concluded, "So, in the final analysis, saving money to make money is the serious business. With money, we can buy a house by ourselves, and we can afford big crabs, big fish and big meat, and the most reliable thing is to rely on ourselves!"

"Uncle is right! My family is willing to work hard with uncle and earn more money!" Qi Shi was also encouraged by Shunniang's words, and said excitedly.

As for Mrs. Liu, she curled her lips and said, "You can also be counted as a mother."

The topic of the new neighbor Liang's family has just ended on the Xi's side, but it has just begun on the Xie's side.

Mrs. Wu also went to see her new neighbors, and when she came back, she was full of praise for the Liang family siblings, saying that their parents didn't know what good deeds they had done in their previous lives to give birth to such a beautiful pair of children. Married, but that Liang Sanlang, who has never been engaged, looks really energetic.

Xie Yi squinted at her when he heard the words, and asked her if she fell in love with that Liang Sanlang again and wanted to recruit him as his second mother's son-in-law. He had to remind her that the second mother had already held an engagement banquet with Xi Erlang next door. Yes, I have already yelled out that Er Niang is going to marry Xi Erlang in the future.

Mrs. Wu said that she did not forget what her husband said, but didn't Erniang and her neighbor Xi Erlang not make a formal decision?

Xie Yi said that he didn't make a formal decision, and he didn't want to go to Qin Muchu like this. He would give his daughter to this one for a while, and then give it to the other one when he saw a better one. Here comes a better-born than Liang Sanlang, do you want to change your mind again?Besides, he thinks whether a man is worthy of being his daughter's son-in-law is not just based on his appearance. His character, heart, and ability are all indispensable.This Liang Sanlang has just moved here, and no one knows his character and heart.As for ability, he didn't even see it.

Wu smacked her mouth, and said in a tone full of regret: "Ah...it's a pity, now I don't know which woman in this town has a daughter."

However, even though she said so, she didn't give up in her heart. She asked Xie Yi, if Xi Erlang next door has not made up his mind and has no intention of asking for his daughter, will it be possible to procrastinate?Don't let your daughter delay when the time comes.

Xie Yi said: "Didn't you let Lu Erlang go to handle the matter? I think there will be a letter soon. Otherwise, I will go to the city tomorrow and find Lu Erlang to ask."

Wu Shi: "Okay, you can go to the city tomorrow and ask, so that the servants can have a solid understanding of what to do next."

Xie Yi really went to the city the next day to find Lu Quan and asked if he had done what he asked him to do last time. Lu Quan said he had already done it, and led Han Yanei to Song Yujie's Songjiazheng store, and Han Yanei had already taken a fancy to Song Yujie , and let the word out that he wanted to marry Sister Song Yu as his wife, and told Xi Erlang that he was not allowed to get close to Sister Song Yu again.

"When did this happen?" Xie Yi asked.

Lu Quan: "It was the Mid-Autumn Festival the day before yesterday."

"Mid-Autumn Festival?" Xie Yi thought back, after Xi Erlang returned from Bianliang Mid-Autumn Festival, there seemed to be no sorrow or joy. Could it be that he didn't care about Sister Song Yu at all?

Hey, that kid, I really don't know what he's thinking.

Seeing Xie Yi like this, Lu Quan probably guessed that Xi Erlang didn't turn to Xie's family to ask for marriage and marry Xie Erniang because he couldn't get in touch with Sister Song Yu. He thought about it and told Xie Yi that he had to wait. Xi Erlang won't give up until Han Yanei really proposes to marry Sister Song Yu, so don't worry too much.

Xie Yi nodded, agreeing with Lu Quan's statement, Lu Quan asked how the Qi family was doing recently, Xie Yi told Lu Quan that it was still the same, nothing changed.He asked Lu Quan what his plans were in the future, otherwise even if he and his wife were willing to help deal with Lu Quan and the Qi family, Lu Quan had to be able to do it himself.

Lu Quan said that he wanted to be an official in the future, honor his ancestors, and marry the Qi family in a grand manner. He asked Xie Yi to help take care of Qi's family, and don't let other people get her ideas.

Xie Yi naturally agreed.

Back in Yangliu Town, it was already dinner time at night, Xie Yi washed his hands and served the table, and found that the dishes on the table today were all tofu, fried tofu, stewed tofu, and roasted tofu.Seeing these tofu dishes, he probably guessed that his wife probably went to Liang's tofu workshop for too long to grind them today, and then sold favors to buy these tofu.

He is a person who loves all kinds of meat, he has no meat to eat, and he feels his mouth is dull, so he slammed his chopsticks on the table and said angrily that he couldn't drink or eat when he saw these tofu.

Sitting next to him, Xie Erniang was holding a bowl and giggling, she advised her father to eat it before talking, she said that the Liang family siblings are really not bragging, the Liang family is indeed outstanding in making tofu.Even though they are all tofu, people may ask how you eat it. If it is boiled, use the tender one, and if it is cooked, use the old one.Take these tofu home and make it. Not only does it not have a beany smell, but it also has a sweet fragrance. It is tender when boiled, and tough when eaten. If you don’t believe it, just try it, it’s no worse than meat.Besides, every ton of meat is eaten, and it's not bad for a change of taste once in a while.

"Yeah, you listened to what our second mother said, don't be so fat all the time, look at your belly, it's almost like a woman who is pregnant in October and is about to give birth." Wu praised it Daughter demotes her husband.

After hearing this, Xie Yi stabbed Wu Shi, saying that she is still like a round drum.

The couple started arguing about this, and Xie Erniang put down the bowl angrily, saying that if they did this again, she would stop eating.

Only then did Xie Yi and his wife stop their quarrel, each picked up their bowls and began to eat. After taking a few bites, Xie Yi found that it was true as his daughter said, Liang's tofu was well made, and it was even more delicious than the usual ones. Gradually, the resentment disappeared, and he started drinking as usual.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu snorted, and didn't want to talk to Xie Yi any more.

After eating, she packed up the dishes and went upstairs again. Because she was worried about the result of Xie Yi's visit to the city today to inquire about Lu Quan, Mrs. Wu also came into the room to ask him nice words.

As for Xie Yi, at this moment, he thought that he had spoken too much just now, so he told Mrs. Wu what he found out in a good voice, and said that he would wait and see.

Mrs. Wu hummed, and then told Liang's tofu workshop that it opened today, and there were many people in front of the store. She went there three or four times but couldn't get in front of it. It was only at noon that there were fewer people, so she went to buy tofu.It was Liang Sanlang who received her politely and enthusiastically, so she bought some of the kinds of tofu he introduced.According to Na Liang Sanlang, for three days in a row, the store offered to buy one get one free, which is why there are so many tofu.She, her daughter and son had already made some tofu for lunch and thought it tasted good, so they made all the remaining tofu at night.

"Okay, I get it, you still have me in your heart, and what I said at the dinner table just now was a bit serious, so don't take it to your heart, lady." Xie Yi scratched his head and said with a smirk.

Wu cast a glance at him and said, "It's good to know you're wrong."

After a pause, she said to Xie Yi that today she saw the lady of the Hu family standing in front of Liang Sanlang with all her strength, and said dissatisfiedly that the lady of the Hu family was playing gongs and nine out of ten places. Is my daughter Xinghua robbing her son-in-law?

Xie Yi lay down on the bed, resting his arms on his pillow and said leisurely: "Now there are fathers in Yangliu Town who have daughters who have not left the court, and brothers will suffer. If you don't eat the tofu from Liang Sanlang's family for several hundred yuan I am determined not to give up..."

This is similar to what Shunniang next door said at the dinner table. She delivered the goods and came back from Bianliang City. At dinner, she saw the big bowl of boiled tofu, the big plate of roasted tofu, and the big plate of dried tofu. People in the town have a daughter in a boudoir who has to eat tofu for several months, until Liang Sanlang decides which family's daughter will be his wife.She also asked her mother not to go to the Liang family next door to see Liang Sanlang in the name of buying tofu, don't forget what she told her.

Liu said stubbornly: "Mother, isn't this for your own good?"

Shunniang: "You're hurting me. I hate tofu! No matter how delicious it is, I don't like it!"

The Qi family immediately said: "Why don't the slaves just go and cook another dish for uncle?"

"Forget it, let's eat it today, hey..." Shunniang sighed and picked up the chopsticks, "I wonder if Uncle Xie next door is as annoying as me at the moment..."

Mrs. Liu answered: "Today I saw Mrs. Wu next door. I went to Liang's tofu workshop several times. I stood in front of Liang Sanlang, looked at him and smiled, and bought a lot of tofu back. By the way, there is also Mrs. Hu. ..."

When Shunniang heard that Mrs. Wu wanted to go next door to get Liang Sanlang's idea, she suddenly became happy, and even took a few pieces of tofu, which she didn't like most. She wished that Mrs. Wu would change her mind and recruit Liang Sanlang as her son-in-law. When I leave Yangliu Town in the future, I won't feel that I owe Xie Erniang.

It's just that she didn't think that she and Erniang Xie were destined to be entangled.

About five or six days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shunniang sent firewood and bean sprouts to the city as usual. After delivering the goods, she met the stone and planned to have dinner together at noon. Suddenly, a few people who looked like Young men who looked like servants from a rich family came over and asked Shun Niang to come with them.

Shunniang didn't know the origins of these people, so of course she refused to go.

One of the leaders said that they would not make things difficult for Shunniang, but their master wanted to see her, and they were in a restaurant not far from here at the moment, and their master invited Shunniang to have a meal together and talk about something.

Shunniang insisted that she had to tell herself who their master was before she could follow them.

"It's Mrs. Song's elder brother, you can go now." The leader hesitated for a moment, but still told Shunniang.

When Shunniang heard that it was Sister Song Yu's eldest brother who saw her, she said, "Lead the way."

Then he followed those people, and before leaving, he gave Shishi a dozen or so money, and asked him to settle his own lunch, and then went home.

Shi Shi said that he was worried about Shunniang, and he would only go back here waiting for Shunniang to come back.

Shunniang: "That's fine, then after you have eaten, just wait for me while you have a bowl of tea."

Not long after walking behind the visitor, he entered a restaurant at the corner of a small street and entered a cubicle.

After entering, Shunniang saw a middle-aged man with two beards, who looked a bit like Sister Song Yu, and was wearing a fancy dress, sitting alone in front of a big table. After seeing Shunniang coming in, he swept Shunniang up and down. She glanced at her, and then asked her to sit down and talk.

After she sat down, he put one hand on the table and tapped lightly, looked at Shun Niang, and asked, "You are Xi Shun? I heard that you are only 16 years old this year?"

Shunniang nodded, but she was calm, and then asked Song Gui, Mrs. Song's elder brother, what she wanted her to do.

The waiter in the store started to serve food at this time, and after a while, a table of delicious-looking food was served, and wine was also served, and at Song Gui's request, he poured a glass of wine for Shun Niang.

Song Gui picked up the wine and drank a glass by himself, picked up the chopsticks and ate a few dishes with the chopsticks, and then greeted Shun Niang and told her to eat too. The two chatted while eating, no matter what they wanted to talk about, they must eat just work.

Shunniang saw that he had no airs, and he spoke politely, which is rare for those who are housekeepers in the official's house, so she relaxed a little bit from the heart that was raised all the way just now.However, her intuition told her that Song Gui asked his subordinates to bring her here to meet him, it was definitely not as simple as just eating, how could she eat this meal safely.

So, she didn't touch the wine in front of her, and didn't pick up the chopsticks to pick up the food. She was waiting for Song Gui to speak.

Sure enough, after Song Gui drank a glass of wine and ate for a while, he looked at Shun Niang and said, "Maybe you know what I'm going to say to you. You are calmer than a man of your age. My sister really has a good eye for you. However, if you think that you want to seduce my sister, become her official, and become the owner of the main store of the Song family, then It's still too simple."

"Seduce? I ask myself that I have never done such a shameless thing. Also, Brother Song, you have said that your sister is too bad, right?" Shunniang said softly, of course she would not do things that she did not do. admit.

Song Gui smiled slightly, looked at Shunniang again, and said, "Okay, I'm wrong, let me ask you, have you ever thought about my sister?"

Shunniang paused, and said softly: "Miss Song is a beauty, if anyone who has seen her has never even thought about her, then they have a different heart."

Song Gui nodded: "Well, it's rare that you admit it generously and don't hide it. Well, since you don't hide it, I will be clear about it. My girl has some unrealistic thoughts about you. Head, if there is no Han Ya Nei, I, as the eldest brother, can let her mess around. However, since Han Ya Nei has taken a fancy to my sister and wants to ask her to be his wife, you should fulfill her. Who is Han Ya Nei? , what kind of family is the Han family? If you inquire about it, you should understand that I told you to fulfill my sister. It is the best for you and her. Before, my sister was very fond of you. You have changed from a woodcutter and fisherman to a seed seller, and now you are earning seven or eight hundred cash a day, you should be content..."

Shunniang: "I am very grateful to Mrs. Song, and I have been thinking about how to repay her."

Song Gui then asked him to tell Shunniang how to repay his sister, that is, go back to Yangliu Town to marry Erniang Xie, and then tell his sister personally that she married Erniang Xie, making his sister completely give up.

"What?" Shunniang never expected Song Gui to make such a request. This request was something she had never thought about, and it was absolutely impossible. As a woman, how could she marry Xie Erniang.If Erniang Xie found out that she was a woman, how would she explain to others, and she concluded that Erniang Xie wanted to marry a man, wouldn't marrying a woman like herself ruin her life?

Looking at Shunniang's expression, Song Gui knew that Xi Erlang in front of him was very unwilling to marry the daughter of Xie Butcher.The people he sent out found out that because of some unfavorable rumors in Yangliu Town, Xierlang held an engagement banquet with the daughter of the butcher Xie next door, but they haven't officially made an appointment yet.Later, Guo Lizheng from Yangliu Town came forward to help Xi Erlang clear up the rumors because his son-in-law Yang Qing flattered him so that he could speak well in front of the Patriarch and get a promotion.Later, his sister sent someone to give him a letter recommending Yang Qing. He also met Yang Qing, accepted his gift, and promised Yang Qing to help him speak well in front of the Patriarch when the time was right, so that he could Go up another liter.From this point of view, Xierlang must be helping Guo Li to talk in front of his sister, and his sister is helping him.

His sister has seldom helped to introduce anyone these years. From this point of view, she must like Xi Erlang very much, otherwise, she would not even look down on Han Yanei.

The reason why Song Gui asked Xi Erlang to marry Xie Erniang was because he thought that in this way he could completely cut off his sister's thoughts about Xi Erlang. If Xi Erlang was a self-aware person, he should readily agree to his request, but Seeing the surprise and hesitation on his face, Song Gui judged that Xi Erlang was really naive. Did he really think that just because her sister liked him, he was worthy of his sister?

"Xi Erlang, I have always done things with courtesy first and then soldiers. Don't have those unrealistic wishful thinking, thinking that as long as my sister likes you, you can cling to her and make money and sex. To be honest, even if there is no Han Ya Nei, you I'm not good enough for her either. I won't talk nonsense to you, so you just give me an answer, do you agree or not?" Song Gui looked at Shun Niang and said coldly.

Shunniang bit her lip, she felt that agreeing to marry Song Gui and Erniang Xie was a way to quench thirst by drinking poison. Although she could escape Song Gui's blow, she would betray Sister Song Yu and deceive Erniang Xie.

But if she doesn't agree to Song Gui's request, then her bean sprouts business will definitely be impossible, and even her personal safety will be threatened. Judging from the fact that he has been a housekeeper for more than ten years, he definitely has this means.

"Would you please don't let me marry Erniang Xie? I'd like to tell Mrs. Song that I don't like her. I like other girls. I don't want to see her forever." , My heart is extremely sad.

After weighing the reality, she chose to give up her little thoughts about Sister Song Yu, and chose to lose Sister Song Yu and protect herself.

She thought, even if this was the case, it would be difficult for her to keep her business, because it was possible that Sister Song Yu's anger would make her current bean sprouts business impossible.But this is better than being beaten and raped by others, not even being able to settle down in Yangliu Town.She made the worst plan, at least she wanted to live in Yangliu Town. Sister Song Yu couldn't go the same way, and she could still use her own ability to expand the sales of bean sprouts and make money with it.
