Ning Zilin ran out and squatted outside Liu Pozi's house because he was worried. Sure enough, he saw Liu Li's head was wrapped by the doctor who was invited, and he was cursing in the house.
"Mother, you will go to Mrs. Qian's house tomorrow to ask for marriage. I want to marry Qian Fangcao!"
"Wife? Have you forgotten that your wife was chased away by you? If Qian Fangcao is welcomed into the family, she can only be a concubine!"
Doctor Xu Danggui glanced at the mother and son, shook his head secretly, and said, "This head injury requires six months of abstention from sexual intercourse, otherwise their lives will be in danger!"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Liu was immediately shocked: "Is it really so?"
"When have I, Xu Danggui, ever lied to a patient?" Doctor Xu raised his head unhappily.
Then he collected his medical cloth and put it into the medicine box.
"You guys take care of yourselves, I'm leaving first!" Xu Danggui walked slowly and did not stay for long.
After Doctor Xu left Mrs. Liu's courtyard, he sighed, "Another trouble for the young lady!"
After Dr. Xu walked a distance, he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Doctor Xu, wait a moment!"
Xu Danggui immediately stopped and said, "Oh, it's Ning Jiazi Lin, what's the matter with you chasing me so late at night?"
"Doctor Xu, is it true what you just told Liu Liniu that he can't do it for six months?"
"Oh, you heard about this? I was just saying it to upset him. If I really force Qian Fangcao to marry me, it won't affect him. I was just trying to scare him out of kindness! Don't take it seriously!"
Doctor Xu smiled and shook his head: "If there is nothing else, I will go home first."
"Okay, thank you, Doctor Xu!" Ning Zilin felt grateful to Doctor Xu at this time.
As long as he can get Qian Fangcao married earlier within half a year, it will be fine.
Ning Zilin immediately walked towards Mrs. Qian's house, "Qian Fangcao, come out for a moment."
When Mrs. Qian heard someone shouting outside, she immediately came out and saw: "Oh, who was it? It turned out to be the poor boy from the poor Ning family. Go away! You are not welcome here!"
Mrs. Qian's disdainful words made Ning Zilin's face flush with anxiety.
If he didn't want to see Qian Fangcao married to Liu Liniu, why would he come here at this time?
Qian Fangcao also came out and saw Ning Zilin: "How dare you come here? If it weren't for you today, I would have been killed by that person~!"
Qian Fangcao actually blamed him.
"You don't know how to appreciate a good person! Humph!" Ning Zilin immediately walked away and no longer wanted to associate with people like Qian Fangcao.
You're just asking for trouble!
Ning Zilin returned to his home, lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Get up early the next morning.
"Have you heard? Mrs. Liu sent a matchmaker to Mrs. Qian's house early this morning to propose marriage."
Hai Moying was chatting gossip with Chen Ya in the kitchen.
"Liu Liniu is a man with a famous bad temper. Who would dare to marry their daughter to him after he chased him away?" Chen Ya stirred the pot and mixed the brown rice to make a thick rice soup for Tangtang to drink.
"I only heard that Mrs. Qian disagreed at first, but I heard that Mrs. Liu actually paid a deposit of ten taels of silver and set a date for Qian Fangcao to marry in six months."
"Ten taels of silver? That's a huge sum of money!" Chen Ya was immediately shocked.
I couldn't help but think to myself that this Mrs. Liu is a person who knows how to save money. She actually saved up ten taels of silver.
"Sister-in-law, you're not thinking of learning Mrs. Liu's craft, are you?" As soon as Hai Moying said this, Chen Ya's face immediately changed: "No, there's no way!"
"I advise you to take good care of the household affairs. If you go out to wash clothes for others, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it!" Hai Moying immediately frowned.
"Why can she do it but I can't?"
"Mrs. Liu is an elderly woman. If you, a delicate young woman, were to become a washerwoman, the wealthy would think you were here to extort money, not to work!"
Hai Moying said this as he added firewood to the stove.
"So, we really can't do the oar-washing work?"
"It depends on the person. Some jobs with rich families are easy to do, but for some, I advise you not to think too much about them." Hai Moying raised his eyelids and said coldly.
Chen Ya's mind was in a state of confusion.
If you can't wash it yourself, you can ask your mother to find a family on the street to wash it, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Ya felt a little more at ease.
After dinner, Chen Ya immediately said he was going to the vegetable garden to pick celery, and then went out.
But Chen Ya turned around and went to Chenying Village, and told her mother about going to the street to wash the oars.
After hearing Chen Ya's suggestion, Chen Liushi immediately said excitedly: "Everyone knows how to wash the oars. I will go out and ask around tomorrow."
Then Chen Ya returned home and picked some celery to make lunch.
When Ning Xiaotang saw Chen Ya's celery, she immediately said to Luo Xiangqin, "Grandma, eat some chicken!"
When Luo Xiangqin heard her granddaughter's voice, she smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go catch a rooster and kill it for meat!"
Luo Xiangqin excitedly entered the chicken coop, and soon she caught a rooster with her bare hands, with two chicken feathers stuck on her hair.
"Tangtang, this is just a castrated rooster, it weighs seven or eight pounds!" Luo Xiangqin came out carrying the heavy castrated rooster and closed the chicken coop tightly again.
"It's time to eat meat!" Tangtang's excitement immediately attracted Chen Ya's attention.
"If Tangtang says we want to eat meat, then our family will kill chickens and eat meat! Others don't have this power!" Hai Moying's words were as sharp as before, with a strong sense of unhappiness.
"Second aunt, aren't you happy to have meat to eat? Don't you want to eat meat?" Tangtang said to Hai Moying in a cute way.
"Tangtang, Second Aunt doesn't miss eating meat, she misses it very much!" Hai Moying suddenly remembered that Tangtang was not the kind of child who spoke slowly. She was smart at an early age and spoke clearly.
This frightened her so much that her heart began to tremble again: "Everyone in the family eats meat mainly for the men, and you will eat chicken feet at noon!" Luo Xiangqin immediately gave an order to Hai Moying.
Hai Moying immediately looked worried: "Mom, can I apologize to Tangtang? I'm sorry, Tangtang!"
"Hmph, Tangtang is angry! Second Aunt won't eat meat at noon. She gave it to her brothers. She won't grow taller, so it's useless to eat it!" Hai Moying took a deep breath after hearing this. "Tangtang, Second Aunt is afraid of you. Please let her go. If she doesn't have any meat to eat, she'll be so greedy that she'll wake up and cry in the middle of the night."
Hai Moying's words made Ning Xiaotang think for a moment. A woman crying in the middle of the night? That was still too creepy.
"Grandma, give Second Aunt some meat to eat, but~!"
Tangtang's words took a turn here.
