Chapter 27: Zhoujia

Seeing him walking away unhurriedly, Qingyu asked in a low voice, "Qinghe, who then?"
Li Qinghe shook his head, "I haven't seen it."
But she heard her mother's voice from behind Qingyu, "I know, it's her father Wanwan."
When Li Qinghe heard the words "Wanwan her father", the first thing he thought of was Li Fu, and then suddenly, this person was Zhao Wanwan and her father Zhao Tianfu?
The Qian clan actually had contact with him, does Li Fu know?
Qingyu was just wondering, so I stopped asking when I heard it. Everyone in the village has surnames. There are hundreds of households from the village head to the village end. It is normal if I don't know him.
Li Qinghe said goodbye to her, and walked with a piece of miscellaneous grain pancake stuffed by her mother. It didn't take long to see Qian.
Qian suddenly saw her as soon as he turned his head, moved his feet as if he wanted to hide, but held back, standing still waiting for her to approach, "Qinghe, where did you go so early?"
Li Qinghe calmly took a bite of the cake, "Return the shoes."
Qian also knew about borrowing shoes. Looking at her usual face, Qian asked tentatively, "You just came back, did you meet someone?"
"I met." Li Qinghe nodded, seeing Qian's instantly pale face, she continued, "The third aunt next door went to the town to buy coarse grains."
Qian's sigh of relief, "Go back quickly and help with the cleaning. It's time for the Hu family to come."
Li Qinghe was noncommittal, and wanted to scare her, and asked, "What does Aunt Qian go out so early?"
Qian was stunned, smiling barely, and unnaturally speeding up a few steps, "I went to wash my clothes yesterday and got something off. I will see if I can find it in the morning."
"Have you found it?" Li Qinghe was curious.
Qian shook his head, "No, there are so many people coming and going, where are there?"
Later, he became more and more calm.
When he got home, Li Fu was already up and was washing himself. Seeing the two of them came in, "Where did they go?"
Originally it was just a casual sentence, but Li Qinghe saw Qian's hand on his side instantly squeezed.
"I'm returning shoe samples." Li Qinghe approached and fetched water to wash.
Li Fu didn't ask much, and said, "Clean up the yard, what will it be like when Hu's family comes."
It's true that I'm more polite to my in-laws than ordinary guests. However, with so many people in the family, it is not Li Qinghe's turn to clean, and there are not so many broomsticks.
The sun gradually rose, and no one came to the door. Zhao Wanwan sat in the house with restraint at first, and gradually ran to the yard from time to time to look at the road outside, and finally simply stood at the door.
And Qian was also happy from the beginning, and gradually became suspicious. Li Fu's face was not very good, "Hu Jia said he will come today?"
"You said it." Qian's tone was determined. "Wanwan and Qinghe should have heard it, right?"
Zhao Wanwan lowered her head and nodded casually.
To say that Li Qinghe was the least affected. She ate breakfast as usual, thinking that if the Hu family didn't come again, she would feed the fish first, and then avoid it before trying to find a way. Can't go to the pond under the sun, right?
The sun gradually went to the yard, and the sun was no longer under the eaves. Li Qinghe lost his patience, got up and walked outside. Li Fu anxiously walked around the house with his hands behind his back. Seeing her going out, he asked, "What are you doing?"
"I feed the fish." Li Qinghe said casually.
Li Fu followed her out, "I will accompany you."
Qian was anxious, "If someone comes in a while..."
Li Fu waved his hand, "It's just feeding the fish, not dirty clothes, and back and forth quickly, don't be too nervous."
The father and daughter opened the gate of the yard and were about to go west, when they saw a group of people coming from the entrance of the village, Li Fu's frowning eyebrows instantly loosened, "Here."
Qian heard the voice and came over a few steps, "Know? Where is it?"
A smile reappeared on Zhao Wanwan's face, she opened the curtain and went in.
Li Qinghe stood at the door, waited for Hu Mu to come over, said hello with a smile, and went to the pond with the excuse of feeding the fish.
After feeding the fish, when I went back to pass Zhou's house, I happened to see Zhou Chengkang beating wheat. He was not there when he came just now.
Zhou Chengkang dropped the things he was playing with the wheat and walked to the gate of the yard, "Qinghe, have you fed the fish? Would you like to come in and sit?"
Mother Zhou in the door came out with a smile, "Qinghe, come in and sit down."
Li Qinghe was silent, but still entered the door. In her last life, Zhou Chengkang built a wooden house in front of her grave, and rarely left. She just knew Zhou's family.
Mother Zhou hurriedly greeted, "Qinghe, sit in the house." She shouted again, "Sister, hurry up and have tea, your sister Qinghe is here."
Apart from the three of them, there seems to be no one else in the family. The little girl of Zhou’s family is a shy temper. She only called her sister when she poured the tea, and then stopped talking, but when she heard Zhou’s mother and Li Qinghe talking, her mouth was With a slight smile.
Mother Zhou also took out the melon seeds and pushed them in front of her, "I heard that Hu's family is here today?"
Li Qinghe thanked him before saying, "Here, I just arrived when I left."
"Very good, good." Zhou Mu smiled.
The room is tidy and tidy, just because things are outdated. When I came in just now, Li Qinghe glanced at it and found that the layout of Zhou’s house is exactly the same as that of hers. There are two main rooms and one wing. The layout is not small, it is enough for the Li family, but For the Zhou family...
Just listen to Zhou's mother, "I plan to wait for the grain to dry, then sell it, and build two houses first."
Li Qinghe didn't care about it. She still had some silver in her hands, so she went to a place near the pond to build a foundation on her own. She had never thought about anyone else. However, she was not easy to answer Zhou's words. In the final analysis, she was just an undocumented wife.
After sitting for a while, Li Qinghe planned to stand up and leave. Hu's family there should be about to leave. In fact, she came in mainly to see the surroundings of Zhou's family. She was relieved to see how clean it was. It doesn't matter if you are poor, you are afraid of being lazy.
When he was about to say goodbye, the curtain at the door opened, and a person entered the door in a rush, "Mother, give me some silver. Hai Yao has a fancy bracelet and loves it very much."
When the words fell, I saw that there was an extra person in the room. After looking up and down, "Li Qinghe?"
Everyone is unfamiliar, so it's not wrong to call it that way, Li Qinghe nodded.
Mother Zhou frowned, "I have no money."
Zhou Chengcai was enthusiastic and spoke quickly, "Mother, Hai Yao likes it very much. This time, she said, I bought this bracelet as a betrothal gift."
In front of Li Qinghe, she said that the other daughter-in-law's betrothal gifts, Zhou's mother felt wrong in the first reaction, and said, "I will talk about the betrothal gifts later. What anxious. Besides, Qinghe is still there. What do you think you are so rash?
Li Qinghe got up at the right time, "Auntie, I should go back."
Zhou's mother's complexion changed slightly, and she tried to keep her for lunch, but Li Qinghe had already gone out. It was not convenient for her to listen to this person's private affairs. Zhou Chengkang stopped his mother and said, "I will send her back."
Mother Zhou gave Zhou Chengcai a bitter look, and said in a low voice, "Please explain to her well, don't be angry."
Zhou Chengkang smiled, "Don't worry, mother, Qinghe is not a stingy person."
Li Qinghe went out and walked fast. She didn't hear Zhou Chengkang's words behind him, but he chased after him not long after he left, "Qinghe, I will see you."
"These few steps, what are you going to give?" Li Qinghe waved his hand, "I'm so busy now, go back quickly."
Zhou Chengkang didn't turn around, and continued to walk with her, "That won't work, my mother asked me to take you home, and let me explain to you. My third brother's fiancee is really spoiled."
Li Qinghe raised her eyebrows, "Your family doesn't think that she spoils her and we should let her?"
This kind of thinking is not good, she will not wait.
"Of course not." Zhou Chengkang said righteously, "You are the only one in this world who can make me give in."
Li Qinghe chuckled, "Don't be poor, go back."
When he got home, the Hu family hadn't left yet, and the atmosphere in the lobby was not right, it was a little silent, and there was no small set of joy. Li Qinghe didn't go in, and went straight back to the room. The clothes she made for Zhou Chengkang were the last thing.
Li Fu's voice was calm, "Qinghe is my daughter, and Wanwan is also my daughter. I will give as many dowry as much as the betrothal gift. If you give Wanwan more, I will add it to Qinghe. Only me in my family Working alone and barely making ends meet, these dowries... are very difficult for me. We can't marry two daughters at once, our family can't live anymore?"
Still talking about the dowry.
