Farmers are lucky if they have a daughter

In the past few days, Bai Danian has been carefully preparing medicine for the old lady. After following Bai Yulian's prescription, the old lady felt much better after drinking it. Now she no longer has to lie in bed all day long and can occasionally get out of bed and move around.

Bai Danian brought the medicine to the old lady, fearing that she would not want to drink it. He always said that it was Bai Yulian's instruction and she had to drink it no matter what.

After drinking these two medicines, you will basically be cured.

The old lady herself felt much better and did not want to lie on the bed. However, after standing for a long time, her legs became weak and she had to sit down. After sitting for a long time, she felt very uncomfortable, so she still had to lie on the bed.

If it weren't for Bai Yulian's advice, the old lady wouldn't want to take medicine now.

Although this old lady is easy to talk to, she is very stubborn when it comes to taking medicine.

The old lady always said, where could there be so many medicines to drink in the past? It costs money to find a doctor, prescribe medicine, and get medicine, so save it if you can.

People who know a little bit about medical skills will go to the mountains to collect medicines themselves to see what medicines can be used.

For those who don’t understand, they have to rely on their own bodies to carry it. If you can bear it, you can survive. If you can't, you will die at most.

The reason why the old lady was so open-minded was that she had experienced a plague, which was particularly violent at that time. At least half of the people in the village were gone. The situation was quite tragic.

During that time, every household was wearing linen and mourning. There was no time to make a coffin, and there was no money to buy it in the town, so they had to wrap it with a layer of straw mat and bury it hastily.

It must also be buried far away, otherwise it will be transmitted to other people. The old lady became a survivor at that time.

People in the village said that the old lady had accumulated great virtues in her previous life and was protected by gods. If she survived a disaster, she would be blessed with good fortune in the future.

Whether she is blessed or not, the old lady doesn't care about that anymore.

Besides, we are all ordinary people, where do we get such great luck?

Wang just saw Li coming back from the east end of the village in front of her home, and she didn't know what she was doing before.

Mrs. Wang didn't bother to ask, since it had nothing to do with her anyway. It would be better not to get involved in Mr. Li's matter, as it would be no good.

Mrs. Li found Mrs. Wang standing at the door and saw her. She was slightly startled at first and her expression changed, but it was not visible on the surface.

Mrs. Li had already made up a reason in her mind, but she didn't expect that Mr. Wang didn't ask a question at all.

This made Mrs. Li feel quite uncomfortable. Well, now even Mrs. Wang looks down on herself. It's really unlucky.

Just wait, that will change soon.

When the time comes, others may have to curry favor with you, but that's not impossible.

Because Li just went out secretly, and for no other reason than to visit Liu Xiucai's home.

Bai Man'er is no longer young this year, and has reached the age to get married.

Li's reputation in the village was not very good now, and she no longer had the right to manage the house in the Bai family. She felt really unhappy, so she decided to target her daughter.

This is Li's only chance, and she must use Bai Man'er's marriage to achieve her goal.

After all, Liu Xiucai was a man of great fame. He had been reading and literate since he was a child, so he was definitely different from other people in the village.

In the future, Liu Xiucai can also take the imperial examination and the imperial examination. In this way, step by step, won't he be able to develop?

If Liu Xiucai became successful, as his wife, it would be a matter of honor for her family.

It seems as if things have already been settled, and I don’t want to think about it. Liu Xiucai has been silent in the past few years since he won the scholarship. This is called insufficient compared with the superior, and more than sufficient compared with the inferior.

Liu Xiucai may have been delayed due to other things. As long as he wanted to take the exam, he would definitely be able to pass it.

The Bai family had previously arranged a marriage for Bai Yulian with Liu Xiucai.

However, when Wang Ziqing's incident happened, Liu Xiucai's family decisively terminated the engagement with Bai Yulian.

He was just a scholar, and the Liu family had their tails raised to the sky. They thought that their son was a very powerful person and would be very successful in the future, so they put their eyes above their heads and looked down on everyone.

Looking back, if Bai Yulian was able to get engaged to Liu Xiucai, then Bai Man'er could too, aren't they all the same?

This is Li's own idea, and he is complacent.

In fact, Liu Xiucai's family didn't pay attention to people like Li at all. What good would come from such a person taking the initiative to come to his home?

"You see, my daughter is also quite good. She has thin skin and tender flesh, and is of the right age. I am looking for a husband for her. I think your son is not bad. If you are willing,……"

"Sister Li," the Liu family still wanted to remain polite on the surface,"please stop talking now, our family understands what you mean. In this case, you go back first and wait for news. If we have an agreement, we will go to you"

"I am not praising my daughter, she is very good, you will know it when you see her. Ms. Li still refused to give up,"How about...I will bring my daughter to see you tomorrow. Take a good look at it. I won't let you down.""

"No, we don’t need to see your daughter. What we mean is... just your family’s conditions.……"

"Hey, what happened to our family’s conditions? Li was still not convinced,"Our Bai family is also an innocent family in the village. We are all from the same village. You know that." Besides, when your family got engaged to Bai Danian's daughter, they didn't say that much. They are all from the Bai family. Bai Danian and my husband are brothers. What is the difference between Bai Yulian and my daughter? You can like her, why can't I like my daughter?"

It's okay if we don't talk about this matter, but the faces of the Liu family are not very good. They had already been engaged, but Bai Yulian actually had an affair with that pauper and cripple Wang Ziqing, which disgraced the Liu family. This matter , The Liu family is still not happy.

Needless to say, this marriage will definitely not work. Now that the matter has reached this point, the Liu family is no longer polite and directly thanks the guests, telling Li to leave quickly.

This The Bian Liu family rejected the Li family, but they didn't expect that their son would have a big problem.

Liu Xiucai seemed to be quite good, and he still had some knowledge in his stomach, but in fact he didn't have much ability at all.

He managed to get by A scholar's reputation only stops here, and he has no intention of taking the imperial examination.

After gaining the reputation of a scholar, he began to wander, and he couldn't control himself, and it was easy for him to have various problems.

Liu Xiucai liked to gamble, Not only did he lose a lot of money outside, he was also said to have had an affair with a maid of a family in the town. Someone found out and threatened to sue Liu Xiucai.

This is a serious matter. After all, he is also a scholar. This reputation spreads , but it doesn’t sound good.

And if the matter gets serious, the scholar will be expelled.

As soon as the old lady of the Liu family heard the news, she fainted. Fortunately, nothing serious happened.

Liu Xiucai I guess I am concerned about my reputation, so I never gamble in the village. I always go to the town, so there are not many people who know about it. How many people in the village often go to the town? They all go there only once to go to the market, and some The woman is doing housework at home and has not even been to the town.

This is not good. The hair of the Liu family is about to turn gray because of this traitor.

It is not easy to get a good name, even if it is just a scholar, it can be regarded as a glorious ancestor. However, under the reputation of being a scholar, they did such a bastard thing. Where would they put their faces when it was revealed?

After much thought, the Liu family still felt that it would be better to find a wife for their son as soon as possible. At least there is someone to watch over him and not let him continue to behave like this. Sooner or later, his little fame and fame will be ruined.

But choosing a wife is also a difficult problem. The Liu family members, look at everyone. It's not pleasing to the eye. The matchmaker has proposed so many marriages, but none of them can be successful. Now even the matchmaker is not willing to take care of the Liu family's marriage, who else can they look for? At this time, Li's head came to mind. She Didn’t you just come here? Since Mrs. Li has this idea, it’s better to let her son marry Mr. Li’s daughter. Anyway, the girl who was chosen before was also the daughter of their Bai family, whether it is Bai Danian’s daughter or his brother’s daughter, Aren't they all from the Bai family?

If we continue like this, our son will behave even more recklessly, so what's the point? Find a wife and tie her to the house. Maybe she will be honest, at least she won't think about going to town every day. Gambling money and seducing other people's maids.

Although the Liu family is still not willing to do so, they can't pay so much attention to it now. Just this, it's okay to make do with it.

But there is another problem. The Liu family just After rejecting the Li family, should they let the Liu family lick their faces and apologize humbly to the Li family?

This is something that the Liu family cannot do.

In this way, the matter will be delayed, no I know what to do, I am so worried.

As luck would have it, Mrs. Li didn't like her in the village, so she went to nearby villages to look for him, but still couldn't find a suitable son-in-law.

The Liu family couldn't tolerate this, so they spent a lot of money to find a matchmaker and asked the matchmaker to find Li to arrange a marriage. But there is one thing. I deliberately didn’t say that I was from the Liu family, and then created an illusion of fate. Wouldn’t it be a knot?

I don’t know who came up with this idea, but the Liu family actually thought it was a good idea and actually did it.

Mrs. Li was quite happy when she heard that. The other party's family conditions were so good. Isn't this the son-in-law she wanted? I agreed on the spot, but I didn't expect that when I followed him, I saw that it was still the Liu family. There was no need for the matchmaker to say anything. Originally, the Liu family told the matchmaker, and fate was involved, but it turned out that this was what Li thought.

This back-and-forth actually turned out to be very close to each other.

With the matchmaker's mouth in the middle, there is no marriage that cannot be agreed upon, unless the other party is too picky.

In order to get a large sum of money to thank the matchmaker, the matchmaker tried her best, fearing that the two families would not be able to get married.

In fact, the Liu family still looked down on Mrs. Li and her daughter from the bottom of their hearts, but now that their son was in trouble, they might as well find a wife as soon as possible. However, the Liu family put forward a very harsh condition, that is, the Li family must put more effort into the dowry.

The reason why the Liu family made this request was that everyone in the village knew that when Bai Yulian, Aunt Bai's daughter, got married, her only dowry was a tattered quilt, and she was not afraid of being laughed at if she told her.

It doesn't matter that Wang Ziqing is a pauper and a cripple, but the Liu family cannot afford to lose this person. The betrothal gifts given by the Liu family were not small, so the dowry given by the Li family should not be small either.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She regards money as her life, and she is obsessed with money. She only knows how to get money from others and put it into her own hands. She tries every means to get it, which is shameless. But if Li is asked to take out the money, then she will do it. Extremely unwilling.

Don't say that this is your daughter's marriage, just marry someone. She has already planned to give it to their family, so why do you have to pay for it? Li also plans to use Bai Man'er's marriage to earn more betrothal gifts, so why does she still need a dowry?

I have only heard of a son marrying a wife and discussing the betrothal gift, but I have never heard of a son asking for a dowry from his wife. What kind of truth is this?

The Liu family had expressed their opinion first. Their betrothal gift would definitely be more than the dowry given by the Li family, so this request is not too much, right? Anyway, you have to earn enough face, so if you agree, just agree. If you don't agree, forget it, and they will go find it again.

Mrs. Li was a little hesitant. This was a good marriage in the Liu family, and Ms. Li didn't want to miss it.

Their family is not only rich, but also famous. Their daughter is married toHe has money to spend and a good reputation. In the future, he hopes that his son-in-law will prosper and Li will be popular and drink spicy food. Things have come to this point, we can't just give up.

In fact, Mr. Li also wanted to be prosperous, but she just didn’t want to pay for it herself.

But the Liu family's attitude was also very firm. Li didn't want to miss this good opportunity, so she could only grit her teeth and stamp her feet, and agreed.

The Liu family members thought that since their son would do something every now and then, they should hurry up and don't delay the marriage.

The longer I put it off, the more I like to mess around. It’s not bad to take advantage of the New Year’s Eve to add to the joy.

After hearing this proposal, Li did not object.

Since the marriage has been decided and the date doesn't matter, it's just right to do it earlier to save the Liu family from regretting it later.

They had broken off their engagement once before. This time, Mrs. Li didn't give them a chance to regret it, and quickly married her daughter off.

It was decided that the date would be the twenty-seventh of the twelfth lunar month, which was a good day.
