Before, there was a low wall between the yards of Geng Feng’s house and Qin Nian’s house.
After the house was built, Ye Meizi asked Mrs. Li for her opinion, saying that it would be better not to build the wall in the middle of the yard so that it would be more convenient for the two families to move around.
Ye Meizi and Geng Zhenhai always consider the feelings of Li Pozi and Xiao Nian before doing anything. They are both very good people.
Mrs. Li agreed: "No need to build a wall. After Xiao Nian and Geng Feng get married in two years, it will be convenient for her to come back and for me to go there."
Ye Meizi smiled: "I also think there is no need to build a house. Our two families are like one family."
The yards of the two families became one big courtyard.
When Qin Nian and the Geng father and son came back, Ye Meizi accompanied Geng Zhenlan and Tang Xiaomei and sat in the warehouse of the compound.
There is a shade there.
"Uncle, cousin, what did you buy in the county town?"
Seeing Geng Zhenhai and Geng Feng coming back, Tang Xiaomei asked.
Buying land is such an important matter, so I can't tell Tang Xiaomei about it. She doesn't have the ability to do anything bad to her, but she will definitely spread the news to the Western Department.
"I'll go ask if the price of blue bricks has dropped. If so, I'll buy some to repair the courtyard wall when I have some money.
Just picking up stones is too tiring.”
Geng Zhenhai told a lie casually.
Geng Zhenlan curled her lips and said, "You too, just repair your own courtyard wall.
But other people's houses are also in charge. Such a big yard must require a lot of stones. It would be strange if they are not tired. "
Geng Zhenhai and Ye Meizi didn't respond to the conversation, and Geng Feng acted as if he didn't hear anything.
Geng Zhenlan didn't want Geng Feng's family to be nice to Qin Nian from the bottom of her heart.
"Cousin, what did you do in the county town?"
Tang Xiaomei was actually in an aggressive manner, as if Geng Feng had committed some serious mistake.
"Xiao Nian and I are going for a stroll, and I want to buy her some silk flowers to wear."
Geng Feng's answer was a little angry, and he started to attack. How could he not understand why the girl who was so nice a few years ago has become so annoying now.
He sounded weird, as if he and Qin Nian were committing an unforgivable crime by being together.
Is it her turn to talk too much?
Tang Xiaomei glanced at Qin Nian and said, "Girl, if you want to wear silk flowers, can't you buy them yourself?
You followed my cousin to the county town, don't you know that it's forbidden for men and women to touch each other? You have no shame at all."
Qin Nian was about to close her door, but after hearing what Tang Xiaomei said, she stopped, turned her head to look at Tang Xiaomei, and said:
"Don't be angry to death. If you are angry to death, it means you have a problem with your thinking."
After saying this, he opened the door and went into the house without looking at Tang Xiaomei again.
Mrs. Li prepared lunch.
Mix rice and millet, mashed potatoes, coriander, chopped green onions, and chili sauce, then wrap it in cabbage leaves.
Eat a big rice dumpling with vermicelli soup.
While eating, Qin Nian told Mrs. Li about her plan to buy one hundred acres of land.
One hundred acres? Ever since she was old enough to understand, Mrs. Li had never thought that her family could own one hundred acres of land.
Wouldn’t that make us rich?
After being frightened and shocked for a while, she smiled proudly. She was not afraid of her Xiao Nian who was so young. She had lived for most of her life, so what was there to be afraid of?
What's wrong with the rich? They didn't steal or rob, they got rich by their own ability, there's nothing wrong with that.
"Okay! As long as we have enough money, you can buy as much as you want. Even if we lose money, we will bear it together as grandparents.
At worst, we can just go on with the old days. It’s not like we haven’t gone through them before. When it rains, the wild vegetables and mushrooms will grow like the wind blowing.”
Even though Mrs. Li had only left the village a few times in her life and was illiterate, her courage and heroism were greater than those of most men.
This is something that is in our bones and is innate.
After a simple lunch, Qin Nian said to Mrs. Li, "Geng Zhenlan and Tang Xiaomei are here."
"That girl——"
Mrs. Li shook her head slightly. "I heard from your Aunt Geng that someone is trying to matchmake Tang Xiaomei. The man is the son of Sun Laoxi from our village. What's his name?"
Mrs. Li thought for a long time, and suddenly remembered:
"He is the son of Sun Dalei's uncle Xi, named Sun Daba."
"What's your name? Sun Daba?"
The bus.
Qin Nian was so laughing that she squatted on the ground: "Grandma, you must have heard it wrong. No one would call you by such a name."
"Tsk! Your grandmother isn't so old that she can't even remember people's names. The one your aunt Geng told me about is Sun Daba.
If you don't believe me, ask your Aunt Geng quietly later."
Dawa Village is the largest village within hundreds of miles. There are very few villages this big. Qin Nian believes that there are too many families in the village and her grandmother remembered the wrong names.
Then I thought again, there were no buses in this dynasty, so even if it was really called this name, no one would make any associations.
The lunch at the Geng family next door was corn pancakes, salty wild boar meat stewed with radish, a bowl of chili sauce made by Mrs. Li, and a pot of vermicelli soup.
"Brother, my sister-in-law and I just said that someone is matchmaking for Xiaomei, and it's Sun Daba, the son of Sun Laoxi.
You live in the same village as Sun Laoxi. What kind of people are Sun Laoxi and Sun Daba?
Is Sun Laoxi's wife a troublesome person? I only have one daughter, Xiaomei, and I don't want her to be bullied after marrying him."
Geng Zhenhai said: "Both Mr. and Mrs. Sun are honest and nice people. But I have never met Mr. Sun, so I don't know what kind of person he is."
"Geng Feng, you and Sun Daba are about the same age, did you know that?"
Geng Feng shook his head: "On weekdays, I spend most of my time in the mountains, and I am only familiar with two young people in the village.
I don’t know Sun Daba.”
Ye Meizi lowered her head and ate in silence. She really didn't want Tang Xiaomei to marry into Dawa Village.
She had known Geng Zhenlan's character for a long time. After Tang Xiaomei got married, Geng Zhenlan had to come to Dawa Village every few days.
If he comes, he will definitely go to her house, and there will be no peace in her family.
She could choose not to argue with Geng Zhenlan, but after Geng Feng and Qin Nian got married, Qin Nian was unlikely to give in to Geng Zhenlan.
So, from all aspects, Ye Meizi did not want Tang Xiaomei to marry into Dawa Village.
Geng Zhenhai and Geng Feng didn't know about Sun Daba, so Geng Zhenlan was unwilling to accept it, and said to Ye Meizi, "Second sister-in-law, after dinner, let's go to the headman's house.
Ask Suqin."
Ye Meizi had no choice but to nod: "You can ask Suqin."
Tang Xiaomei suddenly put down her chopsticks: "I have a bad luck. If I had a good luck, I wouldn't have been robbed by others."
After saying that, he started crying.
Several people all knew what she meant by intercepting.
Geng Feng had a blank expression on his face. He didn't respond or look at Tang Xiaomei. He picked up a large spoonful of chili sauce, spread it on the tortilla, put down the chopsticks, and left.
"Geng Feng, what are you doing?"
Ye Meizi asked.
"Go up the mountain and take a look."
After Geng Feng said this, he walked away without looking back.
After dinner, Ye Meizi and Geng Zhenlan went to the village head’s house together.
Ye Meizi was the first to speak and told Suqin that she wanted to find out what kind of person Sun Daba from Sun Laoxi's family was like.
"I know Sun Daba. He is tall, hardworking, eloquent, and capable. He is a very good young man."
Geng Zhenlan was very happy to hear Suqin say this. She thanked Suqin and went back with Ye Meizi.
In the afternoon, the mother and daughter returned to Dahe Village and agreed with the matchmaker to meet each other two days later.
