Chapter 17: Finding a Marriage for My Big Brother



"Maybe you can trade your stuff with her later, since you don't have a points system."

"Is that so? Does she have caustic soda and other things over there? After all, this is also an ancient time and space!"

"Yes, host."

"I have enabled the conversation function for the host. If the host needs it, he can use it. You can have conversations three times a month."

Qiu Yinong, who was about to use the conversation function to chat with the other party, stopped instantly.

“There’s no time limit!”

"Ten minutes at a time should be enough for the host!"

"Where are the things? How do I collect them?" Qiu Yinong asked again.

Qibao quickly said: "You will understand when the time comes. I have activated the teleportation function for the host. You just need to prepare the things and then you can exchange them."

"However, the host has no points yet. She is still struggling to grow vegetables in the cold palace."

"Tsk tsk, it seems that the other party is much more miserable than me." Qiu Yinong couldn't help but begin to sympathize with the other party.

Qibao spoke again: "Host, since you have been working hard to achieve your goals, I will give you a gift."

"Those goat milk soaps are supposed to sit for a month before use. All the soaps you make this time can be removed from the mold and used directly the next day, including the ones you haven't made yet."

"This is a small token of my appreciation from Qibao, but the rest of the process will need to be done on a regular schedule."

"Thank you, Qibao." Qiu Yinong was also worried about this matter. She was only thinking about doing it at the beginning and forgot about this.

Qibao chuckled and said that he was leaving first.

Qiu Yinong did not try to keep him. After all, the other one was in a worse situation, and things were going pretty well for her.

After a good night's sleep, Qiu Yinong woke up in the morning, washed up, and went to the kitchen. The fourth brother was already busy inside.

"Get up, fourth brother made delicious meat buns for you today." Qiu Hanli said as if offering a treasure.

Qiu Yinong looked at him with amusement. It was obvious that Fourth Brother was asking for praise.

"Fourth brother is amazing, it smells so good."

"Then let me help prepare some side dishes." He looked at the pickles on the table, and then at the meat that Manager Chen had sent over yesterday.

Cut some meat, wash it and cut it into strips, then wash the pickles and cut them into cubes.

Put lard into the pan, stir-fry the shredded pork, throw in two dried chilies, then pour in the pickles and stir-fry, the fragrant aroma will spread quickly.

"It smells so good, what are you doing?" Qiu Hanchi walked into the kitchen and sniffed.

"Good morning, Fifth Brother."

"Good morning, sister." Qiu Hanchi smiled.

"Fourth Brother made delicious meat buns and porridge, so I'll make some pickled mustard greens and shredded pork for everyone to try."

Qiu Yinong served the dishes, Lao Wu took them and put them on the table.

The fourth brother also opened the steamer, and the white and plump buns lying inside looked very tempting.

Put the buns on a plate, and the fourth brother took away the steamer, revealing the cooked porridge underneath.

The fifth brother took a bowl to fill with porridge, and the older brothers also came over one after another, stepping forward to help and preventing Qiu Yinong from doing it.

Qiu Yinong could only sit there and wait for the food: "Fourth brother, when summer comes, I will teach you how to pickle salted duck eggs!"

"What are salted duck eggs?" Qiu Hanli asked curiously.

Qiu Yinong gave a brief description, and when everyone heard that the egg yolk would ooze oil, they all looked forward to it.

"Fourth brother, you must do it." The eldest brother hit the fourth brother on the shoulder.

The fourth brother pretended to be in pain and said pitifully, "If I don't do it, will you beat me?"

"Hahaha, that won't happen, but you have to work harder, Old Four."

"Okay, I will try my best and not give my brothers the chance to beat me." The fourth brother said aggrievedly, looking at Qiu Yinong.

Qiu Yinong pretended not to see it and drank her porridge quietly.

The other four brothers burst into laughter.

The fourth brother didn't care at all, and Qiu Yinong couldn't help laughing.

"By the way, big brother, could you please make me a large embroidery frame later?"

"Perhaps I will be helping Aunt Mo embroider a screen soon. Also, Aunt Mo has a niece who is of marriageable age. We talked about it yesterday."

"My second brother and I want to introduce her to you. What do you think?" Qiu Yinong was so busy yesterday that he forgot to mention this.

When the other brothers heard about their eldest brother's marriage, they all looked at him.

Qiu Hansheng's face turned red instantly, and he began to feel at a loss as to what to do with his hands and feet.

"It's still early. There's no rush. Besides, my family isn't doing well yet, so I'm not in a hurry to get married."

Qiu Yinong looked at him and said, "Big brother is already eighteen years old. Those of the same age are already fathers."

This was the situation in ancient times. Although she did not agree with having children too early, it was her eldest brother's lifelong event after all.

If we don't talk about marriage soon, someone will introduce my former sister-in-law to me soon, and that won't work.

"Besides, I've met Aunt Mo's niece before. She's pretty and kind. I personally think she's the most suitable person to be the eldest sister-in-law."

"Brother, a good girl doesn't wait for anyone. Why don't you come with me next time and take a look at her? If you really don't like her, then we can just pretend that nothing happened, okay?"

Qiu Hansheng was silent for a while and felt that what Qiu Yinong said was right.

"Okay, brother will listen to his sister." Qiu Hansheng smiled shyly. He thought that anyone praised by his sister must be a very good girl.

There is an old saying that it is better to marry a virtuous wife, as my sister has seen, than to marry one of unknown character.

After breakfast, Qiu Yinong took out her embroidery frame and sat under the peach tree to embroider.

Qiu Hansheng went to make a mold for her, while Qiu Hanli and Qiu Hanchi built a brick cave in the corner of the yard.

Because you don't need a lot, just build a small one.

Qiu Hanyan sat next to Qiu Yinong to review his lessons, and the whole Qiu family was in harmony.

The villagers were also busy paying money to register, with smiles on everyone's faces, and people from neighboring villages came to watch the fun.

"What do you think is going on in Taohua Village?" someone asked the people around him in a low voice.

The man whispered back, "I heard they're going to build a residence to entertain guests. Although we're close to the official road, we don't need to build a guesthouse here."

"We're not far from town. If they really want to stay overnight, can't they just go to Qingquan Town?"

"That's right, let's just watch them busying themselves, and then see if they'll be dumbfounded when they can't make any money in the future." The onlookers burst into laughter.

When the villagers of Taohua Village heard about it, some young people couldn't help but want to beat the guy up.

The village head scolded him: "There's no need to bother with them, let's just do our own thing."

The young people finally quieted down, but they all glared at the people from the neighboring villages who were watching the fun.

After lunch, Qiu Yinong excitedly demolded the soap.

Looking at the finished soaps, she was very excited. These seven large pieces made at least 150 soaps.

"Sister, take a look, isn't this what you want?" Qiu Hansheng made the tool for cutting soap.

Qiu Yinong took it with surprise and praised repeatedly: "Brother, your craftsmanship is amazing."
