"I know, thank you Grandma Li." The children all replied with a smile.
They also knew how to salute and say thank you, which made the village chief, Uncle Zhao and others who were coming in smile.
The village chief began to praise, "These children are really studying for nothing. They understand the rules much better than before."
After that, he asked Mrs. Li, "Will Mr. Jiang come over for dinner tonight?"
"No, I won't. Mrs. Li responded with a smile, "Mr. Jiang is giving questions to the children. He said that before the winter vacation, he would take a test on the children. He also gave an explanation to everyone in the village. I will ask Shuiling to send a plate over later. That's enough!"
The old men all laughed, "We invited Mr. Jiang to come over to teach, but we made a lot of money. He is so attentive to the children, and everyone is grateful."
As he spoke, everyone entered the house together.
Sister-in-law Liu and Huiniang both brought the child over.
At this moment, Liu Yang hugged Bai Pang'er's younger brother, Tong Jiayi, to show off, "Look at my brother, how cute he is, and he can even spit bubbles!"
Jiayi was not convinced, hugged his sister, and shouted, "Look at me. Sister, how cute she is, and how..."
He lowered his head and tried to find the good points about his sister, but Jiayin was holding a small bowl and happily eating salt and pepper shrimp, so he had no time to pay attention to his brother's competitive spirit.
She raised her hand to grab a shrimp and stuffed it into her brother's mouth, which was considered as comfort.
Jiayi had no choice but to answer vaguely, "My sister can pick shrimps!"
Liu Yang rolled his eyes, "When my brother grows up, he can also pick shrimps!"
"Humph, my sister was so good at that time. He's bigger and can sew purses, write and read!"
"Then my brother can also practice martial arts, climb trees and catch fish!"
Jiayin clicked the crispy shrimp shells while listening to the two childish ghosts arguing. .
The day before yesterday, grandma also said that after Jiahuan's brother gets married, in a year and a half, Jiayi's brother will get married.
Now it seems that grandma is probably going to be disappointed.
Brother Jiayi hasn't grown up yet, and all he can think about is going out to make a living, how to get a wife.
Do you want to marry a daughter-in-law and stay alone in an empty house every day? !
By then, will widowed marriage and widowed parenting appear in our own homes?
"No, absolutely not!" Jiayinpo said with a sense of crisis.
She put down the small bowl and scolded her two brothers in a tender voice, "You are so childish. How are you going to marry a wife in the future? If you don't even know how painful it is to marry a wife, then you might as well not marry at all!"
Jiayi and Liu Yang's faces turned bright. Hongtou, I don't understand how coaxing a child to play involves getting a wife!
On the other hand, Sister-in-law Liu, Aunt Wu, and Mrs. Li were chatting away while laughing.
Mrs. Li even snatched her granddaughter away and kissed her one after another, "Oh, we Fu Niu'er, how old are we? We have to worry about my brother getting a wife!"
Aunt Wu held the twins in her arms. The boy also smiled and wiped his tears, "Which girl will be lucky enough to marry into our family in the future. Before she even walks in, my sister-in-law will support her!"
Jiayi and Liu Yang's faces turned redder and redder, and they scurried out like rabbits.
Jiayi was still shouting, "We don't want to take a wife, let Brother Jiahuan do it! We haven't had enough fun yet!"
It happened that Jiahuan came back from the restaurant early today, helping his fourth aunt cook, and also wanted to ask the family After all, the wedding day is only half a month away.
As a result, as soon as he brought the food and entered the house, he was shouted at by two boys who were confused and asked with a red face, "What's going on?"
Mrs. Li came out of the house with her granddaughter in her arms, and smiled to help her grandson, " Ignore them, these two boys are too naughty, just let them be." After that, she took her grandson to sit down, and while everyone was there, she discussed the trivial matters of the wedding.
This is the first happy event for the grandsons of the Li family, so of course there will be a lively banquet.
In addition to all the folks in the village, Li Zheng from Dahuaishu and Xiaowangzhuang, and a few well-known villagers from their villages, we also want to invite a few members of Liu Zhiheng's family, and several of Li Zhensheng's close friends who also want to join in the fun. In addition to the several shopkeepers Li Laosan met in Luo'an...
all of them together, there are about sixteen banquet tables.
The Li family has no shortage of ingredients, let alone chefs, so this is no big deal.
The only difficulty is where to stay!
When I first built the yard, I thought the main house plus the east and west wings would be enough to live in.
But now that the family is happily married, although the young couple will not live here permanently, they will always have a room for them.
When you get married, you will be the bridal chamber, and when you come back occasionally in the future, you will have a place to stay.
We can't let the young couple squeeze into a big bed with their brothers again!
Mrs. Cui was the first to speak: "Auntie, I don't come back often. It's a pity that the yard is empty. Why not give it to the children!
" "Everyone who gets married in the future will be arranged there. There are six whole rooms. I'm afraid it won't be my turn." It's enough for Brother Cat to get married. "No, no! "
Mrs. Li quickly waved her hand and refused, "We agreed at the beginning that wherever you go, you will always be from our village, so we built this yard for you."
"We have something to do at home on weekdays, and we really can't arrange it. It's
okay to just stay here for three to five days. How can we occupy everything!" Li Laoer also looked at Mrs. Cui and said, "My mother is right. It really can't be done. I need to find a place at home." Just build it again, but you and the Marquis' yard must not be touched!"
Mrs. Cui felt warm in her heart when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Then let me lend it to the children to live in. When our family builds a new yard in the future, the children Just move away."
Old Mrs. Li still disagreed, "No, how can we lend the yard to the children to start a family? Besides, you and Mr. Wen will get married in the future..."
"Ahem, cough, cough," Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer listened. The old lady lost her mouth, coughed quickly, and immediately changed the subject.
Li Zhensheng said: "It's a pity that we only grow vegetables in the garden behind our house on weekdays. There is a vegetable field outside the village, and the whole village and the guests from the valley can't finish it. In addition, Fu Niuer's Zhuangzi also goes there every now and then. Here are a few baskets.
"So, this vegetable garden is dispensable, why not tidy it up and build an extra yard, enough to live in until all the boys get wives!"
"That's a good idea. " "The village chief and Liu Biao smiled and nodded in agreement.
"It's just that the garden is not as spacious as the front, and the patio must be a bit narrow. "Uncle Zhao added.
"Don't be afraid. The boys only come back to live here occasionally. In the future, they will all get married and become successful. Maybe they won't be able to come back for three to five years. Li Laoer also smiled and said: "At least Jiaren will be sent away as an official in the future, so he won't be able to come back often." "
The village chief nodded, "That's right. The unpromising boys stay at home all day long, while the promising ones have to go out and learn their skills. "
Uncle Zhao was also envious and sighed, "We are just old, otherwise we would really like to follow Zhensheng to the south and see the endless sea and those foreign weirdos! "
"You accept your old age, but I don't accept it! " The village chief waved his pipe and pot and shouted proudly: "Next time the fleet goes to Quanzhou, be sure to take me with you!"
"That's not possible! " "Li Laoer pretended to pull the village chief's sleeve and kept him pitifully, "Uncle, you are the backbone of our village. If you go to have fun, what will happen to the village? Land preparation will begin after the New Year. Without you, no one will be able to eat the jade melons and golden fruits! The village chief
was so coaxed that he felt very happy. He puffed his pipe and pot twice proudly, and then he said, "Well, since the village can't live without me, I'll just wait a little longer." "
Everyone was amused by the old boy and laughed, and the room was very lively for a while.
