The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 21
As soon as An Ran heard her mother's words, she knew that no one was using rapeseed to extract oil, so she couldn't help but feel happy.Sesame oil is so expensive now, even if vegetable oil is not as good as sesame oil, the price should not be low, right?If Dad is asked to open up this uncultivated hillside to grow rape next year, he will definitely make money when the oil is squeezed.An Ran still remembered the rapeseed flowers in the terraced fields in Yunnan that she had seen in her previous life, that was a spectacle!This rapeseed doesn't pick the ground, it can grow even on the hillside, but the field is not fertile and it doesn't grow strong.

Thinking of this, An Ran began to inspect the hillside not far away.Because there are many trees and rocks on that hillside, and the terrain is uneven, the village does not open up wasteland on that hillside.Last year, An Ran's family was separated, and they only got two acres of land. There was no other way, so my father planted more than one mu of land at the foot of the mountain and planted wheat, but judging by the growth conditions, it was obviously not as good as the cultivated fields here.

However, everything has to wait for Dad to come back.Counting the days, Dad will take the government examination in a few days, right?Daddy will definitely pass the exam, An Ran prays to God several times a day, he must let Daddy pass the exam!
The days of waiting are very difficult, especially the days of waiting for the loved ones.

Finally, more than a month has passed, and counting the days, both the government examination and the hospital examination should be over, and An Ran is like before, sitting at the gate of the small courtyard with a small bench when she has nothing to do, waiting for her father to come back.

However, Dad didn't wait to come back, but waited for Uncle's carriage.

"Uncle! Uncle!" An Ran greeted her happily.

Gu Shengwu parked the carriage, jumped down, hugged An Ran happily, kissed him heavily, and laughed loudly: "My daughter, your father passed the exam! Your father passed the exam!"

As he said that, Gu Shengwu ran into the yard with An Ran in his arms, and shouted loudly: "Sister, sister, brother-in-law passed the exam! Brother-in-law passed the exam!"

"Did you win? Did you really win?" Gu Wanniang ran out with tears in her eyes, surprise and sadness in her eyes.She knew that their lives would soon be different.The sufferings of the past have all left her.

Zhao Shihua hasn't come back from the state capital yet, but the results of the government examination and hospital examination have been sent to the county government offices in various places. Gu Shengwu got the news from the county government offices.

Gu Wanniang asked about the situation, and immediately took the children and younger brother to the old house, and told the good news to the elder brother, elder brother and younger uncle's family.

Knowing that Zhao Shihua really passed the exam, the whole family is naturally very happy, even though Wang's heart is a little sour, she is actually happy.After all, Zhao Shihua passed the exam and gained fame, which is also good for his family.Especially my son is also studying and will take part in scientific examinations in the future. With an uncle who knows the inside story, he can naturally get some advice.

The news spread quickly. Although Zhao Shihua hadn't come back yet, the neighbors came to congratulate him in twos and threes, sending some eggs, bacon and vegetables as gifts.Even Zhao Yuhe came to the door the next day with seven or eight eggs to congratulate when he got the news.

Five days later, Zhao Shihua finally came back, but to his surprise, he brought a stranger back with him.

An Ran would wait for her father at the gate of the courtyard with a small bench every afternoon.On this day, it was getting late, and there was only a hint of dark red in the sunset glow in the western sky. The evening breeze was blowing, and the face was already a bit cool.An Ran thought that her father would not come back today, and was about to get up and close the door to go back to the house, when she saw two vague figures walking from the end of the road far away.

"Father?" An Ran recognized at a glance that the figure walking in front was her own father, Zhao Shihua.She hurried up to meet her, and only then did she see clearly the person following her father.

It was a young man in his early twenties, with a thin body, good facial features, fair face, wearing a dark blue turban, and a dark blue Confucian shirt that was probably new. He looked gentle and refined, but he had seen An Ran on TV in his previous life The poor and poor scholars are almost the same.In contrast, Dad was tall and muscular, with a slightly dark complexion, two thick eyebrows exuding a heroic look, not like a scholar, but more like a general on the battlefield.

It seems that they should be friends that Dad just met, and most of them are scholars in Jinke.

An Ran's footsteps paused for a moment, and then she threw herself in front of her father's lap without hesitation.

"Daddy, you're back! Daughter misses you so much!" An Ran hugged Daddy's leg, then raised her face and looked at Daddy with a smile on her face.

Regardless of the tiredness of the journey and the burden on his back, Zhao Shihua immediately bent down and hugged An Ran, kissed his daughter heavily on the face and said, "Daddy's sweetheart, Daddy misses you too!"

On the contrary, the man behind Zhao Shihua, who seemed to be a poor scholar, looked at the scene in front of him with a rather surprised look, and then said with a smile: "Brother Sheng Lin, this is Ling Ai? Yuxue is really cute!" Sheng Lin is Zhao Shihua's Biaozi, scholars usually take Biaozi when they are adults.

Hearing this, Zhao Shihua kissed his daughter again, then turned around with his daughter in his arms and said, "Yes, this is my little girl, she is only four years old, she is smart and sensible, and she is the heart and soul of my brother and your sister-in-law." An Ran said: "Ninny, this is Daddy's new friend Mr. Wei, he also has a daughter who is the same age as Nanxi!"

Although An Ran didn't know why his father brought Wei Xiucai home, he still called out politely: "Hello, Uncle Wei! Welcome to my daughter's house!"

Wei Xiucai saw that An Ran spoke clearly and cleverly at such a young age, his eyes showed a bit of envy, but then his expression changed again, and he sighed: "Brother Sheng Lin is really blessed, he has both sons and daughters. Especially your love It's really enviable to be so smart at such a young age. It's a pity that my wife died young, leaving the little girl unattended. She looks about the same age as Ling Ai, but she is timid and cowardly. Don't talk about seeing strangers, just seeing me This father is often too frightened to speak clearly. Sigh!"

When An Ran heard this, her mind turned, and she vaguely guessed the intention of her father bringing people back.

It seems that daddy wants to be a matchmaker for little aunt.

My little aunt, Zhao Yunxing, is 15 years old and will be [-] in July, but she has never found a suitable marriage.Speaking of which, the life of the Zhao family is not bad, not to mention the two aunts, even the three sons are rare good-looking.Because of this, the Rong family has always wanted to choose a good family for their daughter, but the Zhao family has declined, and now there are only more than ten acres of land left, and three sons, where can they get any decent dowry?Occasionally, I heard from my parents that in the past few years, a matchmaker has come to the door, and they have talked about several young children, but grandma picks things up and down, and in the end it is always too high or too low, so such a delay, it is now.However, the reputation of Zhao's sister-in-law's pickiness has spread, and it seems that no matchmaker has come to the door for the past six months.
