Ordinary happy life

Chapter 14 Aunt Zhou

When Lin Qin arrived home, Lin Han and his son were still working in the fields. Lin Qin put down his backpack and went to the kitchen to start working. He quickly made two simple dishes, a stir-fried cabbage with pickles and a tofu soup. Only now that the family is more affluent, Lin Qin is willing to cook two dishes. In the past, one dish could feed four people.

After Lin Qin put the food on the table, he began to clean the yard, and then sat in the yard to shell corn kernels. In rural areas, corn is usually dried, peeled out, and then ground into corn flour. Generally, this corn flour is the main raw material used by most rural people to make noodles, steamed buns, etc.

"Brother Qin, why are you still sitting in the yard when the sun is shining like this?" Lin Dazhu said disapprovingly when he saw Lin Qin sitting in the yard as soon as he entered the yard.

When Lin Qin saw Lin Han and the others coming back, he quickly put down the dustpan in his hand, stepped forward and took the hoe from Lin Dazhu's hand and put it aside. He called out, "Brother, you are back. Wash your hands and eat quickly. The weather is not bad now." It's quite comfortable to sit in the courtyard."

Lin Dazhu rubbed Lin Qin's head without saying anything else. Lin and Han simply washed their hands and sat down at the table to start eating.

Farmers don't have many rules when eating, and they don't eat or sleep without talking. Lin Qin took a few mouthfuls of rice and said to Lin Han, "Dad, I heard a news in the town today that the imperial court will be here next month. A new policy is needed. If a man reaches the age of 22 and a woman and her brother reach the age of 18, if they are not married yet, they will be forced to get married. The eldest brother must hurry up to get married. There are only a few good people who have just gotten married who are in the same situation as our family."

Lin Han and his son were so surprised that they even forgot to use their chopsticks. After a while, Lin Han put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked Lin Qin, "Is this true? ???"

"It should be true. Who among the common people has the courage to spread rumors about the imperial court? Why don't you give up your head!!!" Lin Qin said before Lin Erzhu could answer.

Could Lin Han still not understand something that Lin Erzhu understood? It was just that what Lin Qin said just now was so shocking that Lin Han would ask back. Although Lin Qin said that a new policy may be released next month, who knows whether it will be earlier, or whether marriage will be mandatory as soon as the new policy comes out. Lin Han originally wanted to find out the marriage of Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu together and then get engaged together. As for the wedding time, it would be fine. This would also reduce a lot of things, but now it seems that it is obviously not possible.

Lin Qin picked up his rice bowl and ate a few more bites, then put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'll go find Aunt Zhou in a while and ask her to find a good girl for Dazhu." The

Aunt Zhou mentioned by Lin Han is Murakami who specializes in matchmaking business. Generally, people in the village will find Aunt Zhou as a matchmaker when they want to get married. After the marriage is completed, generous people will give her twenty or thirty cents, while poor or stingy people will give her ten or even five cents.

After dinner, Lin Han didn't even wait for lunch break before he went straight to Aunt Zhou.

"Isn't this Lin Han? Why are you here at this time???" Aunt Zhou was a little surprised to see Lin Han come to the door, but she thought it was expected. She also knew that Lin Qin was lucky enough to dig yams. She also knew how much Lin Han wanted to marry Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu, so she knew that Lin Han would definitely find her. But Lin Han had previously said that he would talk about Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu's marriage after the busy farming season, but now he suddenly came to the door, and Aunt Zhou had to feel strange.

Aunt Zhou and Lin Han are of the same generation. Aunt Zhou's man is older than Lin Han, so Lin Han directly called her sister-in-law, and then said, "Sister-in-law, you also know that the eldest pillar and the second pillar of my family are older. So I want to ask you to help me find a good match."

When Aunt Zhou saw that Lin Han only asked her to help find a good match, Aunt Zhou thought that Lin Han was regretting it, so she didn't ask any more questions and replied with a smile, "Okay. I have watched Dazhuzi and Erzhuzi grow up, and I will definitely help you get your two virtuous and filial daughters-in-law back."

Hearing this, Lin Han couldn't help but reveal a relaxed smile on his face, and then said, "Sister-in-law, Dazhuzi said that he wants to I want someone with a gentler personality. Erzhu said he wanted a boy rather than a girl, and also said he wanted someone with a more lively personality."

Aunt Zhou was a little surprised when she heard Lin Erzhu's request. Normally she would just say she wanted a girl but not a boy. My son, no one has said that I only want a little brother and not a girl, but Aunt Zhou has seen the world, and there is no surprise on her face. She readily agreed, "Okay, I will find it for you tomorrow." "

Thank you, sister-in-law . Okay, this is the deposit, so I need you to worry about it. In addition, if possible, I would also like to ask my sister-in-law to find out the marriage of Dazhuzi first. He is older after all. Although Erzhuzhu is also older, But it won't matter if it takes another year and a half," Lin Han said.

Aunt Zhou took the money handed over by Lin Han and touched it and found ten copper coins. She felt happy immediately. She gave ten copper coins for the deposit. She would definitely need the money to thank the matchmaker when the matter was completed. Aunt Zhou didn't think much about Lin Han's suggestion to find a match for Lin Dazhu first. After all, in rural areas, the eldest son is valued as the legitimate grandson. Generally, the one above him gets married before the one below him gets married. There are not many second-born and third-born children who get married before the eldest. of.
