"Mingqing, your niece is already in her teens. Have you found a talented young man for her in advance?"
Wang Dafeng came up to Li Mingqing and asked curiously.
Her daughter Lin Zhaodi is grown up now, and it's time to find a husband for her.
"He's still young, why rush?"
"Ming Qing, that's not right. This is the most important thing. It doesn't matter whether a girl goes to school or not. Any girl is the same as yours. It's enough for her to know a few words. There are many girls who can't even read. The most important thing in life is to marry a good man, have children, and live a good life."
She chattered non-stop.
Li Mingqing let her words go in one ear and out the other, just listening to them silently.
Li Mingqing was worried and didn't know what to do.
Wu Liguo also said: "That's right, but my old woman won't let Xiaoya get married no matter what. If this continues, it will definitely delay things."
Li Mingqing gave him a sidelong glance.
I don't understand how he has the nerve to say this.
Wu Xiaoya was raised with great care by the old couple Wu.
Besides, he is only twelve or thirteen years old.
It's totally unscrupulous.
Zhang Chengming on the side said: "The child is still young, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Then we must be anxious. We must first see who pays more, otherwise we will lose money."
"That's not the way to say it."
Several people discussed this issue endlessly.
Finally, the topic fell on Li Mingqing.
"By the way, what is your daughter Niu Niu's plan?" Wang Dafeng asked again.
Before Li Mingqing could say anything, he heard Zhou Xiaoshuang say, "Don't say that. Niuniu is definitely not that bad. When she grows up, the matchmaker will probably trample down the threshold of his house."
The others nodded, thinking she was right.
Don't worry about these things at all.
The one you should really worry about is yourself.
"You guys chat first, I'll go home first."
Old bachelor Li shouted, "Mingqing, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Come back and chat for a while. We haven't seen each other for a long time."
"Uncle, let's talk again when we have time."
Sun Jiaxue had just gone out and was planning to call him to eat.
I didn't expect to run into it.
"Brother Mingqing, what a coincidence."
"That's because my wife and I are in perfect sync. Where are those two naughty monkeys?"
"I went out to play with Xiangdong and the others."
"Let's go back to the county town tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Mom and I were just talking about this. She's already busy packing our things."
As soon as he entered the house, Li Mingqing shouted, "Mom, stop working."
Old Mrs. Li came out carrying half a bag.
I smiled and said, "I know you need everything, so I didn't bring you much. Just some freshly chopped peanuts and some sticky corn. You can cook them up when you get home. They are the best when they are in season."
Li Lizhu came out of the kitchen carrying a plate.
"Bring more, there's no shortage at home. I heard from Erniu and her sisters that you often ask Niuniu to bring them delicious food. I see she's gained a lot of weight this time."
"I don't wear it every day, don't take it to heart."
"The money I gave them is enough for them. Don't spend too much next time."
Yang Daya said shamelessly: "Ever since you were not at home, I feel that Xiangnan's appetite has increased."
Hearing this, Old Lady Li patted her arm.
The third son's wife is as outspoken as ever.
Say whatever you want.
"Mom, it's okay. You all know my character. There's no need to hide it."
Thick-skinned and open and aboveboard.
After dinner, several people hurried to work in the fields.
Sun Jiaxue originally wanted to go with him, but Li Mingqing pulled her back.
"Wife, let's go for a walk in the mountains and pick some sour dates."
"The sour dates aren't ripe yet."
"How can it be unripe in the middle of autumn? It's just not fully red. This way the sweet and sour taste is better."
The two of them walked towards the back mountain, chatting and laughing.
Wangcai suddenly appeared out of nowhere and ran happily in front.
It took about half an hour to reach the foot of the mountain.
There is no need to go up the mountain at all, there are a lot of thorn bushes on the slope next to it.
I looked around and there weren't many sour beans.
Basically, they were picked clean by children from the village or other villages.
I understand.
There is no delicious food for sale in the village, and even if there was, you can't spend money on it.
It is more cost-effective to go to the mountain for free.
So, the two of them strolled around, looked at the autumn scenery, and then walked back.
Li Mingqing picked a bunch of wild chrysanthemums on the road.
After trimming it all the way, he made it neat before handing it to Sun Jiaxue.
"Wife, does it look good?"
"It looks good, thank you, husband."
She smiled and said this, then lowered her head and smelled the scent of the wild chrysanthemums.
I kept holding it and couldn't let it go until I got back.
Take out a scoop and put the wild chrysanthemums in water.
Li Mingqing originally came out to look for Xiaozhe and Xiaohong, but unexpectedly he ran into Zhou Jingli.
"Ming Qing, you finally came back and didn't even go to the fields to help! You're so lazy!"
"Even if I don't go to the fields to help, I won't starve. But you're different. The other educated youth are actively working, but you're the only one who's slacking off. No wonder others are getting better and better while you're having such a miserable life."
Zhou Jingli broke down and shouted, "Who's miserable? I'm doing fine!"
"What are you yelling about? Everyone is watching."
"Don't belittle me. I just don't show off my wealth."
"Okay, you have the final say."
After Li Mingqing finished speaking, he took two steps forward.
Shouted: "Xiaohong! Xiaozhe!"
I haven't seen anyone all afternoon.
