Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 75: My wife is going to have her beard cut off?
When Li Muyang was young, he felt that this old lady was really stupid for not enjoying her blessings and suffering alone in the village.

Now he knows that gold and silver are not as comfortable as a free home.

People who grow up in rural environments find it difficult to adapt to the small urban environment, which can drive people crazy.

Along the way, Li Muyang thought about the past of the Xue family's sister-in-law, and suddenly he understood many things that he had never understood before.

He suddenly wanted to play an old song: Take a leisurely walk.

He felt that the Xue family's sister-in-law was like this. She, an old lady, actually lived a very carefree life.

And now he is looking for this chic old lady just to ask her to help him mediate.

There are two matchmakers recognized by everyone in Lijia Village.

One is the matchmaker Hu whom I met on the road last time, and the other is the Xue family's sister-in-law.

The reason why Li Muyang found the Xue family's sister-in-law was not only because he didn't like Matchmaker Hu, but more importantly, the Xue family's sister-in-law was actually somewhat related to Lin Xiuli's natal family.

Specifically, a daughter of the Xue family's sister-in-law married a cousin of Lin Xiuli.

All in all, this old sister-in-law is two generations older than Lin Xiuli.

People in this era attach great importance to this kind of relationship. As long as they can get in touch with each other, they will feel very cordial to each other.

Many times, matchmaking is about taking advantage of this relationship to get closer.

After Li Muyang met Lin Xiuli in his previous life, it was through matchmaking with the Xue family's sister-in-law that he learned that they were somewhat related.

Bang bang bang!
Li Muyang clicked the copper ring on the black lacquered wooden door.

The yard of the Xue family's sister-in-law's house is quite impressive. After all, the children were working outside at first. If she hadn't stopped it, it might have been even more luxurious.

Soon, the sound of trotting footsteps came from inside.

crunch~
The door opened.

A boy of fifteen or sixteen stood at the door.

Li Muyang was stunned for a moment when he saw the young man.

The young man was also surprised when he saw him.

"Wuda, why are you here?"

The young man in the door is called Li Yongzhong, the eldest son of Li Mutian, the nephew of Li Muyang, and the eldest son and grandson of the next generation of the Li family.

This child should be in the third grade of junior high school this year.

He is a kid who studies hard, but he is just a bit stupid.

No matter how hard I worked, I never got into high school and started working as a carpenter with my father.

Later, when he grew up, his development was okay. With the rise of the real estate industry, he engaged in decoration in big cities. Later, he opened his own decoration company and made a lot of money.

Li Muyang was wondering what his nephew was doing here so late when he saw another young man about the same age coming out. As he walked, he asked, "Yongzhong, who is he?"

"I am Wuda."

"Oh, it's Mr. Shepherd."

"Why are you still playing here if you don't go home so late? Go back quickly and don't let you worry."

Li Muyang stretched out his hand to rub his nephew's head and said with a smile.

"I'm going back now. I was doing homework with Longlong just now."

"Row."

Li Muyang nodded.

"Hey, Wuda, why are you here so late?"

This time, it was Li Yongzhong who was curious.

Li Muyang smiled and said, "Children are not allowed to ask questions about adults' matters. Just go back quickly."

"It's still a secret."

Li Yongzhong didn't think much, said goodbye to his friends behind him, jumped out of the threshold and was about to leave.

"and many more."

Li Muyang took out a flashlight from his pocket and gave it to him, "Be careful on the road and don't fall into the ditch next to it."

"No need Wuda, I'm very familiar with this road."

"What are you talking about? Just take it and go back quickly. When I look at your breasts another day, just bring it back to me."

"Then... okay, I'm leaving."

Li Muyang smiled and watched his nephew run away with a flashlight.

The light and shadow on the path whizzed away.

"Master Shepherd, are you looking for my milk?"

Xue Longlong asked with a smile.

Li Muyang nodded, "Are you awake?"

"No, I'm weaving. Should I call you, or should I take you there?"

"Let's go together."

"Row."

Li Muyang forgot which person Xue Longlong was the son of.

He wasn't familiar with the people here either. He was quite far away from them, and he didn't move around much.

Moreover, the children of the Xue family are all in the city and are originally very unfamiliar with their peers at home.

Their children are even stranger.

This Xue Longlong probably went to school in the town, so he got to know Yongzhong.

"Milk, my Shepherd is here."

Xue Longlong took Li Muyang to the door of the last room in the north, shouted inside, and then went back to his room.

Outside the house, Li Muyang heard the "squeaking" sound of the loom inside. After entering, he found that under the dim kerosene lamp, the Xue family's sister-in-law was sitting in front of an old-fashioned loom, weaving slowly.

The material used in this old loom is cotton and linen.

Cotton and linen were a wild plant in the early days. Later, people discovered that its skin was peeled off and divided into thin strands, which could be used to weave cloth or twist ropes.

The very thin and soft inner skin is used to weave cloth, and the rough outer skin is used to twist hemp rope, the kind of hemp rope used to make thousand-layer bottoms.

Of course, even the fine linen on the inside cannot be woven into very fine cloth. What is woven out of it is linen. In the early years, it could also be used in many places. For example, when a person dies, it is said to wear linen and wear mourning. In this era, Just linen.

With the further development of the textile industry, traditional weaving techniques and materials have gradually been eliminated.

It is estimated that only the Xue family's sister-in-law is still weaving this kind of linen in the whole village.

The ground was filled with broken linen and woven pieces of cloth. The space was filled with cotton and linen dust, and filled with a pungent smell.

Hearing the footsteps, the Xue family's sister-in-law turned to look at Li Muyang, smiled kindly and said, "Is Yangwazi here?"

Although they were of the same generation, Xue's sister-in-law was older than her mother Yuan Rufeng, so he didn't feel any discomfort when she called Li Muyang like that.

"Come to talk to my sister-in-law about something."

"Sit down and talk. There is a wooden pier at the base of the wall. Just move it over and sit on it."

"it is good."

Li Muyang brought the dumpling over and sat opposite the Xue family's sister-in-law.

The Xue family's sister-in-law didn't stop her hands, she just raised her eyes, looked at Li Muyang through narrowed eyes, and said with a smile: "Are you worried about finding a wife?"

It is said that the wisdom of old people is infinite.

Before Li Muyang could speak, the Xue family's sister-in-law saw his thoughts clearly.

Li Muyang was a little embarrassed, and said with a naive smile: "Yeah, I think I'm getting older, so I can't put off this matter."

"Yeah, you seem to be 31 or [-] years old, right?"

"31." "31, you are pretty good at finding a partner. People who move quickly have several children."

"That's it."

"It's okay. As long as you are looking for it, my sister-in-law will help you find it." Sister-in-law of the Xue family pulled aside the half of the cloth woven on the loom and replaced it with new twine.

This kind of cloth is not a large piece, and generally has a limited length and width. After a small batch is woven, it can be taken out directly for the next batch.

"Tell me, what kind of girl do you like?"

When Li Muyang heard this, Lin Xiuli's face immediately flashed in front of his eyes. After hesitation, he decided to speak directly.

"It's like this, look at my sister-in-law. By chance, I met a girl on the street when I was shopping. I fell in love with her and thought she was the person I wanted to spend my whole life with. I will never forget her after I come back.

Later, I asked someone to inquire and found out that he was originally from Xialin Village over Yangziling..."

"Xialin Village, that's not a good place. It's so poor. My family, Lanlan, suffered a lot there."

Speaking of Xialin Village, the old lady thought of the girl she was married to from Xialin Village.

Of course Li Muyang knew about her relationship and said with a smile: "Yes, the conditions there are indeed not good, but I will marry my wife from there, so it doesn't matter."

"That's true," the old lady also smiled kindly, "You said you were optimistic. If you know the girl's name, I will help you find out."

This is the basic process of matchmaking.

"Her name is Lin Xiuli."

"Xiu'er?" The old lady was stunned for a moment, then shook her head with a wry smile, "You're too late, I've already introduced someone to her."

"What do you mean?"

Li Muyang was slightly flustered.

"It's a coincidence that you said this. The girl you mentioned is somewhat distant relative to me. I recently met her mother at the market. She knew that I was a matchmaker, so she asked me to help the girl by the way. Introduce someone..."

The Xue family's sister-in-law only focused on operating the loom and did not pay attention to the uneasiness on Li Muyang's face in the shadow of the light.

She thought to herself and continued: "That Xiu'er is 26 this year, and she is considered a big girl. Previously, there was no one to take care of her younger siblings, and her mother was not in good health, so the child was delayed.

Now, my younger brothers and sisters have finally grown up and can finally leave. I want to find a boy from a good family to start a family and live a good life.

She is a niece from my eldest daughter’s husband’s family. I heard from my eldest daughter that the child is good at cooking, cooking and needlework. She is good-looking and has a handsome figure. She is also well-educated and educated..."

Li Muyang felt a little anxious when he heard the old woman talking about Lin Xiuli.

He actually doesn't need anyone to tell him how wonderful his wife is.

He has experienced this all his life.

He wanted to know now who was ahead of him.

In the timeline of his past life, he and his wife didn't know each other at this time. It stands to reason that his wife's blind date should not have been successful at this time.

But he was still a little worried.

After all, he has been reborn. Who can guarantee that the timeline of this world will be exactly the same as that of his previous life.

What if someone doesn't pay attention and someone cuts off my wife's beard?

"...So, that Xiu'er is really a good girl. Anyone who marries her will definitely live a prosperous life..."

Li Muyang couldn't wait any longer.

"Sister-in-law, you just said you introduced someone..."

"Yes, I was the one who introduced him. Her mother told me that we are related, so how could we not be interested in him? He is the younger son of your sixth uncle's family, Zhaohu."

When Li Muyang heard the name Zhaohu, his sense of insecurity did not weaken, but became stronger.

This Li Zhaohu, he is not an ordinary person.

The so-called sixth uncle, of course, does not mean the sixth uncle.

I don’t know which generation the hierarchy was passed down from, but when it comes to this generation, Li Muyang will call an old man in the village his sixth uncle.

Li Zhaohu is the son of Uncle Liu.

This Li Zhaohu is amazing. He was a soldier. After demobilization, he worked as a propaganda officer in the town because of his good looks. By chance, he was spotted by a leader in the county, so he went to work in the county at a young age. .

In Lijiacun, there are very few capable people like this.

Even the village chief, Li Jianshe, was very polite to Li Zhaohu's family, but he was worried that he was a popular person around the leader and easy to talk to. If someone blew the wind or made a small report, it would be enough for him to eat.

But the biggest problem is not that Li Zhaohu's status is "respected", nor is he very good-looking. More importantly, this person is an honest person with good moral character and a loyal temperament.

At least that's what it looked like in the early days.

Li Muyang didn't know what happened later. He just heard that he became an official in the county.

That's not something Li Muyang can know.

At the moment, this Li Zhaohu is not looking for the beautiful and beautiful girls in the city, so he goes to the countryside to join in the fun with him.

This timeline has obviously changed.

As for Li Zhaohu's conditions, Lin Xiuli didn't know that she existed, so she had no reason to refuse.

He couldn't give her a dream at night and tell her to wait for him, that he was her true destiny and her perfect match.

No.

Li Muyang secretly shouted in his heart.

You can ignore other things, but there is no room for retreat on this matter.

He forced himself to calm down.

The one who unties the bell is also the one who ties the bell.

The thing is that the Xue family's sister-in-law "caused trouble", so she must be tricked into solving the trouble.

"...Sister-in-law, when did you introduce me?"

"Just a few days ago, let me think about it, oh, it was just two days before the last episode."

Li Muyang thought of meeting Lin Xiuli at the market. She wanted to buy shoes. Could it be that they were just for the blind date.

Probably.

Otherwise, why would she want to buy flat shoes?

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that was the case.

"Have you made an agreement? When will we meet?"

"It's the day after tomorrow."

The day after tomorrow was the day after tomorrow. Li Muyang quickly turned around in his mind and blurted out: "Sister-in-law, can you place me in front of Zhaohu?"

"Ah, what are you talking about?"

The Xue family's sister-in-law was stunned, holding the spindle in her hand, and looked at Li Muyang in confusion.

Li Muyang just blurted out, but after the words were spoken, he had no intention of backtracking.

Simply open the skylight and speak frankly.

"To tell you the truth, sister-in-law, I actually have a crush on that relative of yours, Miss Xiu'er, and I want to give it a try to see if I can do it."

"This……"

Sister-in-law of the Xue family has never met such a direct person as Li Muyang.

People of this era are very reserved and do not express their emotions so freely and straightforwardly.

Besides, it was a bit unreasonable for Li Muyang to think about going on a blind date with a girl just because of his good feelings.

The Xue family's sister-in-law, who is very experienced in matchmaking, was also surprised for a moment.

"But I've already told that kid Zhaohu, there's always a first-come, first-served basis..."

"Sister-in-law, you have pity on me. Seeing that I am so old, it is so difficult to find a satisfactory girl."

Li Muyang is going to use the "bitter meat strategy".
