Flowers are expensive

Chapter 70 What about the small stone mill? 1
"Hahaha..." A girl's laughter suddenly came from the nearby bamboo forest, which frightened Man Xiang half to death, and almost rolled down the slope.He hurriedly shouted: "Who? Who? Come out!"

In a flash, the two figures turned out to be Mo Xiang and Li Hua.Man Xiang, as if someone had stepped on his tail, pointed at the two of them and shouted, "You...why are you here?" Lihua spread her arms and said with a smile, "Why can't we be here? You have secured this place?"

Man Xiang's face turned red in an instant, and he stammered: "No... no... But it's not kind of you to eavesdrop, isn't it?"

"Who eavesdropped?" Mo Xiang covered her mouth and smiled, "My fourth aunt and I sat in the bamboo forest to rest when we were tired. We didn't intend to eavesdrop. Besides, what's there to eavesdrop on? You like Yutao, this matter I already knew who Yutao likes, do you think I don't know?"

"By the way," Li Hua asked Mo Xiang curiously, "Just now you said you know who Yu Tao likes, who exactly is it?" Mo Xiang asked Man Xiang, blinking his eyes: "Little uncle, do you want to know? Man Xiang turned his head and said, "Huh! I don't want to know! Anyway, isn't it Tian Yisheng? Who else?"

"no!"

"Who is that?" Man Xiang changed his face faster than turning the pages of a book. One second he refused righteously, and the next second he eagerly wanted to know.Even Lihua felt that this kid was quite cunning.

Mo Xiang laughed so hard that she leaned forward and backward, jumped and clapped her hands so happily that she almost turned the sky upside down.Man Xiang picked up a piece of dirt and threw it over, saying, "Xie Moxiang, what are you laughing at?" After Moxiang nimbly dodged, he hid beside Lihua and said, "Little uncle, why are you so angry? If you want to know, you have to speak up ah?"

"Forget it, let's go!"

"Wait, wait!" Lihua hurriedly stopped Manxiang and said, "My family, why not help you? Don't worry, if Yutao likes you, I'll chase her for you."

"Chasing her? What do you mean, sister-in-law?"

"The meaning is to help you turn her into our own family and your daughter-in-law, how about it?" Man Xiang looked at Lihua with a foxy look and asked, "Sister-in-law, can you do it?" Lihua patted her heart and smiled: "I dare not even touch a rock as hard and cold as your fourth brother, let alone a little jade peach! But if I help you, you have to help me too."

"Then tell me, how can I help?"

"You really like Yutao, kid!" Li Hua and Mo Xiang looked at each other and smiled.

"Fourth sister-in-law..."

"All right, all right, this is not a place to talk, I'll call you two out later in the evening, and discuss slowly."

"Negotiation?" "It means chatting. Alright, let's go back!"

"Wait a minute, Yutao went uphill to look for you, and you didn't stop her here just now?" Lihua pointed to the slope above: "You should go at this time, do you understand? The two of us will go, not quite It conforms to the law of mutual attraction between men and women. Go and find Yutao, and you can talk to her again, right? Hurry up!"

"Are you two too lazy to move?"

"Hahaha..." Lihua and Moxiang laughed again, pointing at him and asking in unison, "Will you go?"

"go……"

Man Xiang was quite helpless and annoyed to find Yutao.Lihua and Moxiang smiled at his back, and then ran towards the Xie family compound.

When they got home, Mrs. Guo had already gone back with Jin Xiu.Aunt Xie and Aunt Zhang were talking in the hall.The two carried the herbs back into the kitchen, and were going to wash them with clean water first.

When Zhen saw Mo Xiang, she couldn't help sighing.Mo Xiang raised her head and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Zhen said with a sad expression: "Moxiang, it would be great if you could have an older brother or younger brother!" Moxiang knew that not having a son was a pain in the mother's heart, so she hurriedly said, "It's the same without an older brother or younger brother." Is it? Who made you angry?"

"No one." Zhenshi said with her head down as she weakly cut the rabbit grass.

Lihua looked at Mrs. Zhuang next to her, and Mrs. Zhuang smiled at Mrs. Zhen and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be discouraged. There is more than one Tian Yisheng in this village! He only falls in love with Jinxiu when his brain is flooded. He will suffer in the future."

Mrs. Zhen stopped what she was doing and said, "I'm not just waiting to be the mother-in-law of the number one scholar, but I just can't figure it out! Don't you and I know what kind of person Jin Xiu is? I can’t really talk about anything else. I used to think that Yi Sheng’s child had good eyesight, and he would definitely be able to pick a good wife and mother, but after a lot of picking, he picked something like Jin Xiu. What kind of thing is this? Anyone like Jin Xiu can be a champion wife, is our Mo Xiang bad?"

Mo Xiang asked, "Is Tian Yisheng going to be engaged to Jin Xiu?" Mrs. Zhuang took it and said, "I heard it's done, we just have to wait for the horoscope to be settled." "Heh!" Mo Xiang sneered and shook He shook his head and said, "It really is a bunch of gangsters!"

"Hey, it seems that our Moxiang is different from other people. If it was another girl, she would cry all over the place. She seems to be fine."

"Why am I crying? I never thought about marrying him!"

"Have a temper!" Lihua gave Moxiang a thumbs up, sitting on a small stool and washing herbs, and said, "There are so many men in the world, why do they have to hang on a tree? Moxiang is so good, there is always someone who can do it." Those who love her dearly, sister-in-law, don't worry."

"Ah... Lihua, you will know the worries of being a mother when you give birth to a daughter. Now that you and Manting have no children and live a free and easy life, you can naturally say this. Moxiang's marriage will not be settled for a day, I My head hurts like hell!"

"Didn't I say that last time? Just find a door-to-door!"

"Stop it!" Mrs. Zhuang came over and patted her on the arm and said, "Don't scold me while Mother hasn't nagged you these few days, and live a comfortable life for a few days before returning to the village."

"I'm telling the truth," Lihua said with a serious face, "Do you think I'm joking about Moxiang's marriage?" Mrs. Zhuang and Mrs. Zhen really think so. It's just talking, but I didn't take it to heart.

Lihua motioned for Mo Xiang to close the door, and then said, "Isn't my sister-in-law without a son? The two daughters are married, and who will they rely on in the future? The family will be divided sooner or later, so we have to think about it for her and the elder brother." What do you think, Moxiang?"

"Aunt Si is right, I want to stay and take care of my father and mother too!"

Zhen's heart was moved when she heard it, but she also knew that it was more difficult to recruit a husband in Xie's family than going to heaven.Mrs. Zhuang asked cleverly: "Lihua, do you have any good ideas?" "There is no perfect solution yet, but Moxiang's marriage can't be rushed! It's her life's happiness, and it can't be done just because people outside say it." Let's just settle the two sentences hastily? You are all married, and you can't get along with your own man. You know what it's like, right?"

"But," Zhen shook her head and said, "Even if it's not in a hurry, it has to be settled in a year or two, right? If you push it back, you'll really be an old lady."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, don't make Moxiang look like no one wants it. One Tian Yisheng is gone, but thousands of Tian Yisheng are still there!" Moxiang smiled first, touched Lihua with his arm and said: " Fourth Aunt, where are there tens of thousands of Tian Yisheng? One in this village is enough to annoy people."

"What I mean is that Tian Yisheng is not a man in this world. If you keep your eyes open, you might be able to find a good one! Everyone in the village is staring at Tian Yisheng, can you still see others?" Li Hua Looking at Zhenshi, he said, "Sister-in-law, how about we make an agreement?"

"What agreement?"

"Anyway, Moxiang hasn't made up her mind yet, why don't you give her two months. If she can find someone she likes and settle down, you and Big Brother will depend on her. If she can't find it, she has to obediently listen to you. How about marrying whoever you marry?"

Zhen Shi hesitated, but Mo Xiang already understood what Li Hua meant.She winked and smiled at Lihua, and then said to Zhenshi: "Mother, just promise! I want to take care of you and my father when you get old! If you marry me, I will go back to my mother's house." It’s not easy, let alone taking care of you.”

Zhuang asked curiously, "Why two months?"

Lihua smiled and said: "I won't talk about this for now, second sister-in-law you will understand in the future. Anyway, if sister-in-law agrees, I will naturally help Moxiang."

Mrs. Zhen lowered her head and thought about it, Mo Xiang is indeed not engaged, it is hard to predict whether someone will come to her door to say marriage within two months, it is better to give her two months.If a son-in-law can really come to the door, his life will be more comfortable in the future.So, Zhen nodded and agreed: "Okay, just two months. Within two months, Mo Xiang couldn't find someone she likes to settle down with, so she can't help her. I made it with her father, and she must marry."

Mo Xiang happily gave Li Hua a high-five, and shouted: "Yeah!" Zhuang's mind was more subtle, and she always felt that Li Hua and Mo Xiang seemed to have something to hide, but she was too embarrassed to ask, so she had to give up.

After dinner that day, Lihua helped Mrs. Zhuang wash the dishes, winked at Moxiang and Manxiang, pointed to the attic, and then went upstairs by herself.

After a while, Mo Xiang slipped in first, followed by Man Xiang.Man Xiang was very careful, afraid of letting his family know, after all, it was not good for a brother-in-law to enter his sister-in-law's room.Man Xiang asked worriedly: "Where is the fourth brother? If he sees it, he won't throw me down?"

"He's gone to accompany Dad, and won't come up for a while. Besides, there's me!"

"By the way, sister-in-law, what do you want me to do for you?"

"Build a log cabin."

"Repair the log house?"

"To be precise, it is repairing and repairing, because there was originally a wooden frame there, which may have been a little dilapidated due to years of disrepair."

"Where is it? It won't be the one you stayed with the fourth brother last time, right?"

"No," Moxiang took the conversation, "it's in the ditch under the Tangyuan slope. Remember? The place with a lot of red ones is a bit remote, so it's not easy to find."

"I remember, but why did you build a small wooden house there?" Lihua patted the table lightly and asked, "Don't worry about the rest. In a word, I will help you chase Yutao, and you help me." Repair the log cabin, and keep it a secret, okay? If you are a man, be quick!"

"It's fine, but why don't you go to the fourth brother?"

"He is exhausted from working for the village every day. How can he have the time to do this? Hey, Xie Manxiang, is it okay? No, I'm looking for someone else!" "Yes!" Manxiang said with certainty He replied, "Then, it's time for Mo Xiang to talk!"

Lihua turned her head and asked Mo Xiang: "When did you find out that your little uncle likes Yutao?" Man Xiang was a little embarrassed, and quickly smiled: "Hey, hey, don't talk about this! You are not kind. Already!"

"All right, all right, let me tell you, is the head office okay?" Mo Xiang covered her mouth and smiled, "Actually, Yutao really doesn't really like anyone, I've asked her about this several times, don't I want to help you too? You are my little uncle, and I want to turn her into my little aunt!"

"Really?" Man Xiang asked in great disappointment.

"However, last time, when we whispered together, we managed to hold back Xining's words..."

"Xining stopped," Man Xiang quickly interjected, "I don't like her, and it's no use if she likes me!" "Little uncle, don't raise your tail so high, okay? There's nothing wrong with Xining, right? Her If I really marry you, won't I be caught and bullied by you? Don't you like being obedient to you all my life?" Mo Xiang deliberately teased Man Xiang.
