Back to ancient times to open obstetrics

Chapter 20 No wonder she would marry you! (2)
"Go to the village next door to do part-time work. Gouwazi and Maowazi are both grown up, and I plan to send them to private schools." Hearing what his mother said, Mrs. Li blushed.No, Gouwazi and Maowazi are only one year younger than Liu Bashun, and Liu Bashun has been in private school for two years.

"Mother, just send the baby there, Shu Xiu, I'll let Bashun take it there."

"Then what's the matter? A whole village looks at you. You usually help us a lot. The harvest in the field is not good. There is nothing we can do about it."

Liu Qiqiao looked at her grandmother's gray hair and the wrinkles on her face. Instead of feeling ugly, she found her simplicity admirable.In fact, this old grandma has always loved herself.

Liu Qiqiao smiled and said: "Grandma, in the second half of the year, the eldest uncle and the second uncle won't have to go out to do long-term work in the village. My mother bought a hundred acres of land in Zhaojia Village and planted it for the two uncles. I'm afraid that yourselves will be able to grow it by then." There is not enough manpower to find short-term labor!"

When Mrs. Li heard this, she was stupid: "Girl, you can't do this, let the ancestors of the Liu family know, how can you go down to see them in the future? Can fill my stomach."

Mrs. Li's eyes turned red when she heard her old mother say this: "This money is the dowry money my mother-in-law left to Qiqiao before she died. Qiqiao asked me to buy the land. She doesn't have her husband's house now. You can buy this land first." Plant it, and when she agrees to it, there will be nothing left to plant."

Mrs. Li thought about it, Liu Qiqiao was going to get married in two years, so their old Li's family didn't count as taking advantage of their old Liu's family, so she nodded and agreed.

Liu Qiqiao took her two younger brothers to wash their hands, took maltose out of their pockets for them to eat, and the family boarded the ox cart and happily went to Aunt Li's house.

Aunt Li's family was really not stingy with money this time. They built an oilcloth shed at the door of the house, borrowed tables from neighbors, and set up a dozen tables in a decent manner.

When Liu Qiqiao and the others arrived at Aunt Li's house, hot water had already been boiled on the stove outside, and several village women were making pasta around a table.This is also the custom of Niujia Village. When there are happy events, they make vegetable and meat buns, rice cakes, etc., and distribute them to each household in the village.Liu Qiqiao didn't know how to do this, so naturally she couldn't intervene, so Li took Liu Qiqiao to a corner at the back of the yard, took out something from her bosom, handed it to her and said, "Qiqiao, why don't you sneak in for a while?" Give this to your little nephew, mother has already given the gift money, so many people are looking at it, it’s not easy to add more, your third aunt and daughter-in-law are going to give birth next month, people will see it, and they will say that I am partial to the ground."

Liu Qiqiao took the thing, it turned out to be a tightly wrapped handkerchief, and when she opened it, it turned out to be a golden peanut.Her family has a lot of these things, and they are all given to the servants in the palace on New Years and festivals. Father Liu is highly valued by the prince, so he has an extra one.Liu Qiqiao usually wove it with red rope and carried it a few times, but later saw that everyone looked at her like a nouveau riche, so she put it away.

"Okay, mother, don't worry, I gave this to my little nephew myself. What does it have to do with mother? Everyone has seen it. I have several strings of this kind of little thing."
