Shelter in the pastoral

Chapter 17 The Big Brother's Marriage

Li Xiuer looked at Big Brother Fang and hesitated to speak.

Brother Fang said: "I'll bring you some food." He handed the food box to her directly.

Li Xiu'er smelled a little gluttonous, and her stomach started to growl, her pretty face flushed.

Although she is a widow, she can't accept the man's kindness so vaguely, not to mention that the neighbor's sister-in-law is leaning against the door to crack sunflower seeds.I have no intention of leaving at all.

Li Xiuer seemed to have made a big decision in her heart, and said, "Brother Fang, I..."

Brother Fang saw that she was in a thousand turns of embarrassment, but he remembered what his younger brother said, and said, "Let me take care of you from now on, okay?"

Li Xiu'er was dumbfounded on the spot, what this means...

Brother Fang didn't know how to coax girls, so he said with his heart and instinct: "I will treat Tiantian as my own daughter in the future."

He is now a popular son-in-law in the village, and many unmarried girls are willing to marry him, so why find a widow with children.

Brother Fang was waiting by the side. Seeing that she had nothing to say, he became a little anxious, and asked, "Do you want to?"

Li Xiu'er said: "I am willing, but..."

Brother Fang didn't listen to the rest of the sentence. When he heard that she was willing, he laughed: "That's good."

Then he took out a beautiful wooden box from his pocket and said, "This is for you."

Li Xiu'er opened it and found that it was actually a gold silk phoenix headdress, and every feather was made of gold silk and pearls.

There's nothing a girl doesn't like, even those who are watching Tiantian can't take their eyes off it.

Brother Fang didn't expect that it was such a valuable thing, so he thought about giving the silver to his younger brother next time.

The two of them are so nice, the neighbor's sister-in-law is actually a little jealous, so she took a sip and entered the house.A widow who doesn't know how to be safe is really not a good bird.

Hearing the neighbor's voice, Big Brother Fang knew that he had stayed here for too long, and said, "I'll talk to my mother first, and then I'll marry you."

Li Xiu'er was a little flustered, she watched Big Brother Fang go away, packed up her things and went into the house.If you can marry him, you don't have to worry about starving, but the Fang family may not agree.

Seeing that Jinsifeng was very popular with her daughter.The little milk said: "Mom, I still want to see."

Only then did Li Xiu'er come back to her senses and said, "Put the things away, don't touch them randomly, you know." Then she wanted to hide it, but she felt uneasy about putting it anywhere, and finally put it under the bed, saying: "

Sweet, come and eat. "

"Yeah." The little girl nodded.

The two of them opened the food box, and the steamed buns inside were still steaming. They were actually made of polished rice and white flour, and they hadn't eaten them for several years.

Li Xiu'er broke open half of it, and although it was filled with plain stuffing, it was still oily inside.This is the bun made from the tenderest radish tassels. It also has a lot of seasonings and a lot of dried shrimp skin. It tastes delicious after one bite.

Sweetly said: "Mom, it's delicious." After speaking, the little guy took another big bite and devoured it.She has been eating whole grains since she was born, and this is the first time she has eaten fine and soft grains.

The radishes are irrigated with spiritual springs. Fang Shujing is used to eating them and doesn't think there is anything wrong with them, but in the eyes of Li Xiuer and her daughter who have never eaten anything good, they are so powerful.

Tiantian ate two, and Li Xiuer ate four buns the size of a fist.I didn't stop until I felt a strange feeling of fullness in my stomach!

Li Xiu'er blushed a little, and put the rest in the small kitchen, there was still a lot left, and she could have another meal later.

……

Fang is worried about the marriage of the eldest son, after all, he is the eldest and has been single all the time, and it is not a solution if there is no one around who knows the cold and the hot.

Recently, I have been thinking about finding some honest and responsible girls in the village, and I will book it if I find a good family.

Fang's went out in a hurry, wanting to visit the houses of girls in the village.

Just as Big Brother Fang was walking into the house, he stopped Fang and said, "Mother, I have something to tell you."

Upon hearing this, Fang immediately stood still and said, "Go ahead."

Brother Fang saw that there were neighbors drying vegetables in the yard not far away, and he was afraid that his words would be heard by others.Shen said mysteriously: "Go back and talk about it."

Fang only felt a little strange, but she did not doubt that he followed him back to the house.

Just now Brother Fang looked anxious and had something to say, but he was not in a hurry when he entered the room. Mrs. Fang was impatient, and urged beside him, "What's the matter?"

Brother Fang said: "I... I have someone I like."

As soon as Fang's eyes lit up, the corners of her mouth couldn't help curling up on the spot and said: "It's a good thing." Her eldest son has never been ignorant of human affairs, but now he is enlightened: "Which family is it? Make peace."

If the eldest son really has a sweetheart, it will save her a lot of trouble and not have to look at each family.

"It's Li Xiu'er."

Fang's stretched brows suddenly frowned: "Her?"

There are more than 100 households in the village, all of whom have lived here for generations.She knows what kind of family it is.

How could her son find such a person for his first marriage.

Although Li Xiu'er is hardworking and down-to-earth, none of her brother-in-law and in-law's family are fuel-efficient lamps, and there is also a daughter who is only a few years old.If the two of them become successful, they will have to raise children for nothing.

The Fang family is living a better life now, and even the eldest daughter of Huanghua can be found, so why find a widow.

"You bastard, break up with her quickly. I know the important things about your marriage, so I don't need you to meddle by the side."

As soon as Brother Fang heard it, he said, "Mom, I like her, you know it." Before Li Xiu'er got married, the Fang family wanted to make the two into a couple, but at that time her elder brother and sister-in-law hated the Fang family. poverty.

She didn't think so, and said a lot of hurtful things, and finally married her to a medicine jar for five taels of silver, but it turned out to be a good thing. Not long after the marriage, she left a baby and passed away.As a woman, Fang also sympathized with Li Xiuer's current life.But if she wants to marry someone back home, her powerful brother and sister-in-law will probably tremble again.

Seeing the eldest son's obsessed look, Fang became angry, and said: "Who did you learn to be so frivolous, and you like it and love it. You are not allowed to say such things at home in the future."

Brother Fang said: "Mother..." His tone was almost pleading.He really likes Li Xiuer, and his daughter Tiantian is also very well-behaved and sensible.

Fang said: "Okay, if only you can have half of your brother's peace of mind."

The Fang family is also a stubborn breed, once something is determined, eight cows will not be able to pull it back.

After saying that, he shook his face and left.

Brother Fang just made a promise to Li Xiu'er this morning, if he backtracks now, he will become someone.

Just now his mother said, brother, yes, go find Fang Shujing now.I made up my mind and left.

After leaving the room, Father Fang said, "Hold a board for me." The two of them were about to start carpentry work.

When Big Brother Fang seemed to have lost his soul, he left without seeing anything.

Father Fang yelled twice but was ignored, and blew his beard angrily: "This kid..." Since there was no one to help, he had to come by himself.

……

As soon as Fang came to the creek, he saw a few women in twos and threes chatting, but when he saw her go, he fell silent.A mysterious look!

Fang looked over suspiciously, and saw that everyone was gloating in their eyes. Now that the Fang family is getting better, it has been a long time since they have seen these winks, and their heart skipped a beat.

Then I saw Aunt Li coming over. His youngest daughter is only 15 years old this year. Before that, his family was very eager to get closer to her. Said that your boss is getting close to other widows."

It didn't take long for the kung fu to spread, and I secretly scolded my eldest son for not being careful in doing things, and now he is just doing Tai Chi with a dry smile.

Although Fang did not admit it, he did not deny it either.Aunt Li immediately said: "It's not true, isn't it? It's not a close relationship. It's not that I'm an elder talking about her. Li Xiu'er's girl is really pitiful. Her natal family is not good, and her husband's family is not good. She gave birth to a girl. The man still died early. Why is it not good for her to go somewhere?" She didn't say something ugly.

There is a lot of right and wrong in front of the widow's door!

If you are restless, you will have to turn your hat a little green.

Fang Shi was not optimistic about this marriage, but when he heard this, his face became ugly.

"Hmm." Her face was gloomy.

At this time, Aunt Li suddenly said: "Hey, isn't that your Dalang? Where is this going?"

Fang also looked over, and sure enough, she saw her eldest son walking by in a hurry.Could it be that he was bewitched by Li Xiu'er, and immediately ignored the women who were watching the fun and chased after her.

She hurried behind but didn't catch up with Brother Shang.

But soon he felt relieved, it turned out that he was not going to Li Xiuer's house, but Fang Shujing's.

Fang Shujing was chatting with Liu Yechen.

Since he sneaked away that day, he had been hiding from Fang Shujing for several days, but after all he liked him, thinking about it, and wanted to come secretly, but Liu Yechen was caught by Fang Shujing as soon as he arrived.

Fang Shujing smiled and invited him to talk in the yard for a while.

Now that autumn is getting stronger, the weather is very cold in the morning and evening. Seeing that Liu Yechen was still wearing thin clothes, he asked, "Aren't you cold?"

"It's not cold." Liu Yechen didn't know what was going on, and felt embarrassed every time he talked to Fang Shujing.

Fang Shujing said: "Nonsense, your fingers are cold." Last time he pretended to be sick, Liu Yechen's fingers stuck to it, which made him tremble.

Liu Yechen gave him an angry look.refused to speak.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door: "It's me." Brother Fang's voice came from outside the door.

Xu Quan was chopping radishes in the yard, when he heard this, he hurried over to open the door.Liu Yechen wanted to hide, but Fang Shujing held his hand and said, "You should stay here, not an outsider."

Liu Yechen quickly withdrew his hand, his fingers connected to his heart, his heart beat suddenly just now, and his ears felt a little hot.

Fang Shujing's chuckle came from behind, and Liu Yechen felt itchy in his ears more and more, and the heat got worse.

Xu Quan opened the door and saw Big Brother Fang arrived.

Brother Fang wanted to discuss something with him, but when he came in, he found that Liu Yechen was also here.Say hello.

Liu Yechen gave a salute, Fang Shujing invited them to sit down at the round table and said, "They are not outsiders. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Brother Fang hummed, and said, "Xiu'er agrees, but Mother disagrees."

Liu Yechen suddenly heard such a big gossip, his eyes were full of curiosity.Sitting down next to Fang Shujing, he suddenly felt his hand being held under the table.Liu Yechen resisted the urge not to scream, and glanced at Fang Shujing, he was still serious, but he was so bad behind his back.

Liu Yechen shook him back.

Fang Shujing glanced at him.

The two of them listened to Big Brother Fang talking, but they used their fingers to hook each other behind their backs, having a great time playing.

Brother Fang said: "What if Mother disagrees?" He is very distressed now, and really wants to be with Li Xiu'er.But filial piety is the most important thing in the village. If you disobey his mother and don't get the blessings of the elders, even if they are together, they will not be happy.

At this moment, Xu Quan said again: "Ma'am, why are you here?"

Liu Yechen quickly pulled his hand back forcefully.Standing up, said: "Auntie."

Brother Fang and Fang Shujing also stood up and said, "Mother."

Fang came here with anger.Didn't expect Liu Yechen to be here.Her mood eased a little, and she said, "Xiao Liu, come to my place for lunch."

Before Liu Yechen could speak, Fang Shujing helped him refuse, saying: "Mom, he eats at my place."

Fang took a look at his son, and found that his son was listless long ago, always trying to abduct him to his home.Xiao Liu is so good, she was taken aback by her youngest son!

After being interrupted like this, Fang's mood improved a bit, but when he saw the eldest son, his face became a little more cloudy.Said: "You don't have to discuss it with your brother, I don't agree with this matter anyway." People have a face, and a tree has a skin.If he married a widow, how would the family meet people?

"Mother, I don't want to marry her." Brother Fang's stubbornness also came up.Fang's face turned pale: "Then don't recognize me as a mother from now on."

The tempers of both of them came up a little bit.

Liu Yechen quickly comforted her future mother-in-law, and said in a gentle voice, "Don't be angry, big brother didn't mean that."

Fang Shujing asked Xu Quan to close the door and went outside to guard the door.

There are only four people from my family in the whole yard.

Fang Shujing said: "Mother, elder brother has never been married, and now he finally has someone he likes, can't you agree to him?" To be more specific, the reason why elder brother Fang did not marry was because his family was poor, which delayed him...

Otherwise, why would there be so many things to marry Li Xiuer home early.What a pair of fateful mandarin ducks.Now they are finally able to get together again, but the secular world wants to separate them.

After hearing this, Fang said: "I'm looking for him now, I will definitely find him a good one."

"Mother... Xiu'er is not that kind of messy person, she also has affection for her son." Brother Fang still wanted to marry her.

Fang's previous anger was comforted by his youngest son and Liu Yechen, and then he calmed down a little, and said to him patiently: "What is friendship? You don't spend a lifetime with someone, and besides, getting married is not a matter of two people, it is It's about the two."

Brother Fang said: "Her brother and sister-in-law look so heartless and unjust, so they just don't have any contact with each other in the future. Besides, Tiantian is also very well-behaved. You will definitely like them."

Hearing this, Mrs. Fang became even more angry, and said, "Tell me, do you always go to their house on weekdays? Now there are rumors and gossips outside." I always thought that the eldest son was the most honest, but now he told her Such a big problem was posed.It was like putting her on the fire.

Fang Shujing said: "Mother, people only have this life, why can't I let my brother choose the person he likes. It doesn't matter what outsiders say, let's live our own life behind closed doors. If you are afraid of being disturbed. This vacant land is still very big. Why don’t we build another house and move here. It’s quiet on weekdays. Our family should have someone to take care of us.” He is already a reborn person, and he understands many things clearly!

Your own choices are more important than what others think.

Brother Fang gave Fang Shujing a grateful look.

Liu Yechen took another look at Fang Shujing, and then followed suit: "Mother, he is right."

For a moment everyone looked at him.

Fang even forgot to be angry, did Liu Yechen call her a mother?

Fang Shujing's heart was burning, if it wasn't for the fact that there were too many people around, he must be teased to call Xianggong to listen.

On the contrary, Liu Yechen suddenly realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, his cheeks became hot, and he was so ashamed...
