Crossing the Qinghe Landlord GL MTL

At five o'clock the next day, Li Qingshi and Mrs. Chen got up to worship. This worship hall is where the bride offers tea to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, which is different from the day before when she thanked her great ancestor and relatives. But there is no need for outsiders to be around at this time, it is enough for the Li family to be busy on their own.

　Xia Cui and Xia Jiniang also got up to wash themselves up. When they saw Zhang He leading the bullock cart, Xia Jiniang knew that she was going to send eggplants to the city again.

　"Aunt Xia, are you going back to Liujiaqiao Village today? Do you need me to give you a ride?" Zhang He asked.

　Xia Cui said with a smile: "This is too troublesome for Zhang Erlang, so brother Shi has already inquired for us yesterday. Today, there are people in Qinghe Village who are going to Tongzi Village, which is eighteen miles away from here. Let's go and ask if we can take him there. Let's go together."

　"Then... I'll accompany you to ask!" Zhang He said.

　The family from Qinghe Village who wanted to go to Tongzi Village was the Zhao family at the end of the village. Although Zhang He had never dealt with the Zhao family, he had never heard of anything bad happening to the Zhao family. Xia Cui discussed it with him, and he agreed generously upon hearing it. Xia Cui was very grateful and went back to shout out to Xia before going to say goodbye to the Li family.

　After Xia Cui and Xia Jiniang left, Zhang He gave the elder man of the Zhao family a money bag with one hundred coins in it. Zhao Dalang opened it and his eyes widened: "W-what does Zhang Erlang mean?" "

　I want you to send them to Liujiaqiao Village. This is the travel fee."

　Zhao Dalang looked at her and pinched her again. After pinching the money bag and comparing it in his mind, he nodded and said: "Okay, then I will send them back to Liujiaqiao Village and then to Tongzi Village. Anyway, they are on the way!" "Then I would like to thank Zhao Dalang in advance.

　"

　Zhao Dalang thought that Zhang He came from a family of high-ranking officials, but he was different from ordinary people like them. He even acted so generously! But it was impossible for her to be so kind to the Xia family for no reason... Thinking again about the young lady following Xia Cui, he seemed to understand.

　When sending the three members of the Xia family back, Xia Da saw the intersection to Tongzi Village pass by and said, "Isn't this Tongzi Village? Just put us down and we can just walk back."

　Zhao Dalang disagreed: "It's okay. I'll send you back to Liujiaqiao Village and it will be the same when you come back." "

　How embarrassing!" Xia Cui thought to herself that Zhao Dalang is really a good person!

　Zhang He didn't specifically ask him not to reveal it to the Xia family, and he didn't intend to hide it, so he said bluntly: "Hey, it's a matter of loyalty when someone entrusts you! If Zhang Erlang gives me travel expenses, I will definitely help." He sent you back to Liujiaqiao Village safely!"

　As soon as he said this, Xia Da, Xia Cui and Xia Jiniang were all stunned for a moment. Xia Cui glanced at Xia Jiniang and said, "When did he give you the travel expenses? Yeah, you didn't say anything to us!"

　Zhao Dalang was a little worried that the Xia family would refuse him to send them back after knowing the money Zhang He gave them, and would take the money back, so he said: "He also has good intentions, these three Although the ten-mile journey doesn't seem long, it still takes more than half a day to walk. It's busy farming time, so you don't want to waste most of the day on the road, right?" "That's true." Xia Da said, but he admired Zhang He's intentions in his heart

　.

　Zhao Dalang stopped at the entrance of Liujiaqiao Village. He had to hurry and it was impossible to deliver them to his door. Xia Dalang thanked him and walked back home with his wife and daughter.

　When Xia Luojin's wife Xu Shi saw them coming back, she said, "My parents and aunt are back. I didn't see them back last night. I thought something had happened, and the whole family was worried!" Xia Da said with a careless smile

　: "I drank too much yesterday, so I stayed overnight in Qinghe Village. I was afraid that you would be worried, so I rushed back early this morning." Ms. Xia Cui asked, "Is everything okay at home?" Ms. Xu

　nodded

　. , took another look at the second and third bedrooms, and whispered: "My parents didn't go to the ground yesterday, and my second uncle and third uncle were resting at home and refused to go to the ground." Xia Dadeng fell silent, and Xia Cui glanced

　at She glanced at him, feeling displeased, but it was hard to accuse Xia Er and Xia San of their faults in front of him.

　"Then no one is watching in the fields?" Xia Cui asked.

　"Sanlang, Silang, Erniang, Wulang and I took turns watching, but there wasn't any big problem."

　Xia Da breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and entered the main room. He knew that Old Xia had woken up early and should be awake at this time, so he knocked on the door to say hello. Xia Cui asked about the time and knew that it was time to prepare for breakfast. She asked Xia Jiniang to go back to the house to rest first, so as not to have no time to rest when she went to the field later.

　Xia Jiniang returned to the house, and Xia Suniang was already weaving. She saw Xia Jiniang took off the hairpin and put it in her makeup box, and said, "Sister, why don't you continue to wear it? This hairpin is so beautiful!" After taking off the hairpin, Xia Jiniang's bun became loose

　. Loose, the smooth black hair fell down. She picked up another hairpin, tied her long hair back up, and fixed it with a wooden hairpin. Hearing Xia Sumiang's words, she smiled slightly: "The hairpin is beautiful, but wouldn't it be a pity if it was lost?

　" It will be difficult to get it back. However, she asked curiously: "I haven't seen my sister wear it before. Was it given by someone else?" Xia Jiniang

　nodded

　. It means giving it to me not as a token of love, but as a way to repay a favor, so don't think too much about it." Xia Sumiang

　said "oh" and thought about it for a long time, then suddenly realized that Xia Jiniang did not answer her directly. The problem is that the person who gave the hairpin has no intention of being committed, but he did not say whether he is his sweetheart! If it were in the past, Xia Jiniang would not be so vague.

　Xia Jiniang had no time to chat with her. After changing into coarse clothes, she heard Mrs. Xia Cui calling them to have breakfast. After breakfast, everyone in the Xia family went to work separately.

　At noon, Xia Ya ran to the field and shouted to Xia: "Ah, great-grandmother is here!" "

　Why is she here? Who else is there besides her?" Xia Da asked.

　Xia Ya clapped her fingers and thought over and over again. She didn't know how to call that person, so she could only say: "There is another uncle."

　Xia Cui and Xia Da looked at each other: "Huang Kui or Huang Yu?"

　"Go back and take a look. Let's go!" Xia Daodao.

　Mrs. Xia Cui asked Xia Ya to go to the fields farther away and call Xia Jiniang back to rest, while she and Xia Da packed up the farm tools and went back first.

　The "great-grandmother" mentioned by Xia Ya is Xia Hui, Old Man Xia's sister. For Xia Ya's generation, she should be called "great-grandmother" or "great-aunt", and the "uncle" she describes must be Xia Hui. one of his grandsons.

　Xia Hui married into the Huang family and gave birth to two sons. However, the Huang family had few heirs, and each of the two sons gave birth to one son, namely Huang Kui, the eldest grandson, and Huang Yu, the second son's only child. Huang Kui was married and gave birth to a son. The second son was still young. However, Huang Yu was twenty-one years old and still had not married yet.

　When Xia Ya went to look for Xia Jiniang, she secretly said to her: "Auntie, I heard from my great-grandmother that she wanted to come and propose marriage to that uncle.

　"

　"What did Aweng say?" Xia Jiniang held her hand and asked.

　"I didn't hear clearly, it's just that, aunt, I don't want you to marry that uncle." Xia Ya shook Xia Jiniang's hand and pouted.

　Although Xia Jiniang was worried, she didn't show concern on her face. She asked funnyly, "Why is that?" "I hope my aunt will marry

　that Zhang Erlang and he will give me candy!" Xia Ya's big black eyes flashed. bright light.

　"Can she buy you off with candy?" Xia Jiniang said with a smile.

　Xia Ya pouted: "I like him. He is good to us and he must be good to our aunt! In the past, those who wanted to get close to my aunt would never pay attention to me!" Xia Jiniang knew that she was referring to Kong Rong, although Kong Rong

　said He wanted to marry her, but he turned a blind eye to Xia Ya every time, let alone bribe her with sweets. Children have simple ideas, and Xia Jiniang will not be serious with them, but emotionally speaking, this alone makes Zhang He more likable than Kong Rong.

　On a hot summer day, walking around can make you sweat all over, and the sun is so strong at noon that you feel dizzy. Xia Jiniang and Xia Ya returned to Xia's house and saw a man squatting lazily under the tree in front of the yard, with a piece of grass in his mouth, looking shapeless.

　Xia Ya shook Xia Jiniang's hand and whispered, "Aunt, that's the uncle."

　Xia Jiniang ignored him and took Xia Ya directly into the yard.

　When the man saw Xia Jiniang, he first looked away, and then his heart trembled, and he quickly turned his head to stare at her. Those eyes looked at him up and down for a long time, without restraining his wanton expression at all.

　When he saw Xia Jiniang entering, he quickly followed her and called out, "This is Ji Niang, why don't you call me when you see me?" Xia Jiniang then stopped and turned around, pretending not to know: "This

　is ..."

　"Me, Huang Yu, we met seven years ago!" Huang Yu's eyes were almost glued to Xia Jiniang's body, which made Xia Jiniang feel disgusted.

　"It turns out to be Huang Erlang. I have a bad memory and I forgot about it after a long time." Xia Jiniang said.

　"Why are you calling me Huang Erlang? Doesn't calling me cousin make you closer?"

　"Huang Cong's second cousin."

　In terms of relationship, although Huang Yu and Xia Jiniang are of the same generation, they are already first cousins. They are true His distant cousin, Xia Jiniang is right to call him that. But Huang Yu always felt dissatisfied. He hoped that Xia Jiniang would call him "cousin" to show that he was closer to her, and that he would have a greater chance of success in proposing marriage.

　"Okay, you can call me whatever you like." Huang Yu said with a smile.

　Mrs. Xia Cui walked to the door of the main room and waved to Xia Jiniang: "Ji Niang, your uncle is calling you."

　Xia Jiniang walked in, and Huang Yu followed. As soon as she entered the house, Xia Jiniang saw Xia Hui, an old woman sitting next to Mr. Xia, with half of her hair covered with silver hair, covered with wrinkles, and wearing an indigo blue jacket. She greeted, "Ji Niang has seen Miss Zu, Miss Zu." Be well."

　Xia Hui opened her eyes, but only a crack was exposed. She was only in her sixties but looked like an octogenarian. There was no clue that she was Mr. Xia's sister.

　"Hey, this lady is good and good at giving birth." Xia Hui muttered.

　However, Mrs. Xia Cui didn't like her way of complimenting her, especially after she and Xia Da came back. Xia Hui took advantage of her seniority and asked General Xia Da's daughter to marry her grandson. Proposal for marriage is like taking advantage of others. But she is a junior and there is no room for her to speak, so she has been holding back.

　"Brother, you see my grandson likes it too, why don't we just kiss each other!" Xia Hui said to Old Man Xia.

　Old Man Xia glanced at Xia Da and Xia Jiniang, pondered for a moment, and said: "You came suddenly and said this suddenly, which is not good." Xia Hui smiled and said: "Hey, I didn't hear about A Tao recently

　. My daughter was rejected by others for not having a dowry, and she couldn't find a good family for a long time. How could I, a ancestral girl, tolerate it? So I brought brother Yu to have a wedding, so that people could know that Ji Niang was also It's not that no one wants it."

　Mrs. Xia Cui didn't believe her. Although Xia Hui married into the Huang family and didn't come back for several years, her son still came every few years. It was not just a matter of a day or two that Xia Jiniang was rejected for not having a dowry and could not get married. She said that she only knew now that she must be lying.

　Mrs. Xia Cui thought a little too much. She felt that the Huang family was from a better background than the Xia family. Huang Yu also lived in the city. He must have looked down on their poor relatives, otherwise he would not have visited them for seven years. Get married. They had never sent anyone to talk to her before, but suddenly they came to propose marriage. I'm afraid there was something hidden behind it.

　"Why doesn't she have a dowry? She does!" Xia Da replied angrily because of Xia Hui's words.

　Xia Hui's eyes almost flashed with light. She showed a pair of black and yellow teeth and said: "It would be better if you have a dowry!" The author has something to say: Xia Jiniang: Donkey gave it to

　me , what should I do if I lose it?
