The Green Lotus Peasant Girl - Chapter 51

Chapter 51: Wumei




Seeing Li Fu coming out, Qian's voice became quieter, and he cried, "If I have anything with him, I can't marry you again. It's really for the sake of grace that we come together."

Li Fu looked at her, and saw that she lowered her head uncomfortably, before asking, "You mean, I didn't take care of Wanwan?"

No, Qian suddenly discovered that someone who has always been good at talking came up with horns and made no sense, "You take care of it, but sometimes some extraordinary means are needed. You are too upright..."

"You used extraordinary means, and Wanwan married into Hu's family as you wish. What's going on now?"

Hearing that, Qian's face turned pale, and said in grief, "At the beginning you only said that the Hu family was not a good match, and you didn't say that you must not marry. Now something has happened, you are here again, why didn't you stop earlier? I want to know that this is the case now, and I won't let Wanwan marry..."

Li Fu raised his hand to interrupt her, "Do you think you have a clear conscience?"

"I have a clear conscience." Qian looked into her eyes with a serious tone.

"Well, I'm really uncomfortable now, and I don't want to see you. Since there is nothing between you, you should go home first and pick you up when I figure it out." Li Fu waved his hand and said to enter the door.

How can I tell her to go home after so long.

It's not that Qian didn't want to go home. She was indeed worried that her father was alone at home and wanted to go back to take care of him, but that had to be Li Fu's willingness instead of rushing her back because he was so angry now. Besides, there is another biggest reason. His father is too old and can no longer go to the land. In fact, he is now supported by her foster brother, the father who is full of money, because he is too old to cook. , So every day’s meals are prepared and delivered to him, it makes sense for others to serve his father. But why give her food?

So, if this house returns, she won't even have food. Besides, because she is married close, there is no room for her in that family, where do you go back to live?

"Brother Fu, what shall I eat when I go back?" She was just stunned. Li Fu had already entered the door and hurriedly chased for two steps. "Can't you go to my elder brother's house for dinner?"

Li Fu has closed the door, "I have respected their two elders for so many years. Can't I still serve you for a few days?"

Seeing this, Li Fu didn't want to entertain his daughter anymore. Li Qinghe turned and went out, before leaving the house and turned around and said, "You should pay back the money you lent your brother earlier. My father doesn't ask, but if he has three diseases Two pains, I won’t make money either."

Qian gritted his teeth with anger, "He is in the county seat now, if he has the ability, you can ask him?"

"Don't think I dare." Li Qinghe sneered, "I'm going to sell fish in a few days. It will be a good thing to find him when the time comes. If he really gets to his door, do you think he is still famous? "

Qian was shocked.

In the evening, Li Qinghe made a meal, thought about it and brought it to Li Fu.

The yard of Li's house was dark, and the candle was not lit. At first glance, it looked like no one was at home. When I walked in, I saw Qian squatting on his knees, very pitiful.

Li Qinghe pretended not to see him, and went straight into the main room with the food, "Father, eat."

After a long while, Li Fu came out from inside, his complexion softened, and when he saw the food on the table, he sighed, "If I'm hungry, I know how to cook it, so I don't have to give it to me."

"The meat you gave me yesterday, there are still a few steamed stuffed buns. I won't give it to you tomorrow." Li Qinghe said while putting out the food.

There were three big buns and two dishes. Li Fu sat at the table, picked up the buns, and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"I ate." Li Qinghe sat opposite him and whispered, "Father, she's still outside. Are you really going to drive her back?"

"Don't worry about it." Li Fu glared at her, not looking angry. After eating a bun, he said, "I know it in my heart."

Just leave it alone, Li Qinghe talked about other things, "I plan to move. On the fifth day of next month, I will move to a new house there, and then I will live there." She glanced outside when she thought of something. , "If you want, you can go to stay for a while."

Li Fun said, "It's good, live your life, don't worry about your mother and me, you don't have to worry about me, don't do things like food delivery, beware that Chengkang is upset."

does not exist.

But there was no need to explain. After he had finished eating, Li Qinghe put away his bowl and chopsticks and went out without looking at Qian squatting at the door.

She didn't believe that Li Fu didn't cook or eat. She was embarrassed to do it by herself. Didn't she just want Li Fu to relax? Now that people are full, she doesn't need to cook, so she just squatted there hungry.

On the fifth day of October, Zhou Chengkang and his wife were happy to move. Now that they have already told the public, they have to prepare. This time is different from the time when we got married. In that time, Zhou's mother was the leader. This time, she could help, but with those words, Li Qinghe didn't want to look for her in everything, and she couldn't set a precedent for everything. Zhou's mother is already 40 this year. Many, after several decades of hard work, I have raised a few children, and I can rest whenever I can.

The two of them were busy preparing, and spent most of their time at the new house. When they came back that day and was cooking, Zhou Mu went into the kitchen to help Li Qinghe set the fire.

"Qinghe, the fifth sister is only fifteen during the Chinese New Year. I want to find her a family relationship."

Li Qinghe was a little surprised and felt a little too sudden, "It’s important to talk about relatives, let’s take it slow. Wumei is shy, and she doesn’t like to talk when she is wronged. It is easy to suffer. You have to find a simpler person. He is an only child."

She came up with a series of words, Zhou's mother listened, her expression softened, "I came to say that there is an only son."

Li Qinghe suddenly, like Wumei, who has a few older brothers in front of him, some people will especially come to marry a girl like this. Firstly, there are more brothers to help. Secondly, some people think that Zhou's mother can have a son like this. Maybe Wumei also has it.

For the Zhuang family, the son is very important. Like Li Fu, he doesn't care about it. It's all because he only has the Qian family in his heart. Otherwise, just like Li Qingmiao's home, it is normal to leave incense.

"Mother figure it out," Li Qinghe paused, and then said, "Fifth Sister wants to see it herself, after all, it's her who lives."

Wumei just walked to the door, blushed when she heard that, and walked out.

The meal was ready and Zhou Mu was invited to eat together, but she refused. She and Zhou Chengkang sat down for dinner, and then he packed up the dishes and washed them.

Li Qinghe turned around to get her clothes to sew up, and she saw Wumei holding the soles of her shoes, standing stiffly at the door of her room. Wumei usually talks really little, a very shy girl who has been in the door for so long and hasn't seen her talk to anyone.

"Sister Wu, come in and talk." Li Qinghe greeted her to enter the door, "What are you doing standing at the door?"

The fifth sister smiled shyly and sat across from her, "Sister-in-law, if you can't get the soles of your shoes, I can help you."

"Okay." Li Qinghe responded, anyway, waiting for her to marry in the future, just add more dowry to her.

The room was quiet. Zhou Chengkang came back after washing the dishes, and saw his sister and daughter-in-law sitting opposite each other, as if they had something to say, but did not enter the door, and turned to the pond.

Li Qinghe took a peek at her several times, and when she saw that she wanted to speak but stopped but couldn't tell, she simply asked, "Sister Wu is looking for something to do with me?"

"Yes..." Wu Mei lowered her head, "Today I heard my mother tell you about my marriage. I think..."

"How?" Li Qinghe asked patiently.

"I know a person, he is very good, I want to marry him, it is him..." Wumei bit her lip, "he is too poor."

Li Qinghe was dumbfounded, these five sisters were at home most of the time, and she didn't see anything unusual about her, so she couldn't help asking, "Who is it?"

Seeing her biting her lip and not speaking, Li Qinghe whispered, "You told me, I will ask my mother, what if she agrees?"

Wumei lowered her head, her voice was weak, "It's Zhao Dashan."

Her voice was small, and Li Qinghe could still hear her clearly, and her complexion suddenly became complicated.

This Zhao Dashan was also from Wang Village, but the villagers said that he had a hard life. It is said that when his mother gave birth to him, he was not angry when he was born. Before long, his father fell down the mountain and disappeared on the spot. Fortunately, he had an uncle. This uncle had just got married at that time and he had no children yet. He saw that his eldest brother and sister-in-law were gone, so he took the child over. Not long after he took it, Zhao Dashan’s aunt was pregnant. When giving birth to a child, a daughter was born and died.

After that, his uncle took his nephew and daughter to live, and never remarried. When Zhao Dashan was 11 years old, when his cousin was 9 years old, his uncle also passed away. Everyone in the village said that the reason why his parents and aunts died was because of him. That was his cousin, who was fifteen years old, and was still sick. People will be gone sometime.

Don't look at Zhao Dashan at seventeen this year, but there is no one to help him get married.

It stands to reason that his father and uncle's land and house were given to him, so life shouldn't be sad, but his cousin got sick twice in three days, all the land was sold, and the house...the house was also sold.

It was the house he sold, and then the Yang family in town moved over. Zhao Dashan sells his own house, which is next door to Xu's house.

Now even the house is gone. He and his cousin live in his uncle’s house, and usually rely on going up the mountain to chop wood for the town’s restaurants and wealthy people to make a living. outrageous.

For such a person, Li Qinghe just wanted to perfect the five sisters, and he didn't dare to mention it in front of Zhou's mother. How could this be a dear, this was an enmity with the five sisters!

Seeing that there was only one **** top of her head in front of her, Li Qinghe organized her language in her heart and coughed slightly, "Fifth Sister, how do you know each other? Why do you want to marry him? This marriage...I'm afraid she won't agree. "

Hearing that, Wumei’s shoulders are drooping, and her hand holding the soles slows down, “Once I went up the mountain to chop wood, he helped me carry it back. I think... he is very powerful, carrying a bundle of wood lightly. , I have looked back several times to see if I have kept up. It is very considerate. A person like him should be able to carry a family. My mother is too bitter."

It seems that Zhou's father's departure early has dealt a great blow to the fifth sister and directly affected her choice of marriage. Li Qinghe asked dumbly, "So, he doesn't know that you want to marry, right?"

Wumei stopped talking.

Li Qinghe turned his mind twice and asked, "Do you want someone who can stand up to your family, or do you have to?"

"I don't know." After a long while, Wu Mei's thin voice remembered again, "As long as I think of marrying, all I think of is him."
