run with space

Chapter 44 Visit by the Village Chief
After thinking about it for a while, Wen Xin decided not to think about it. In the afternoon, she went to the mountain to cut firewood and went to the space to tidy up the ground. The vegetables harvested last time were not rotten at all, and they were still so fresh.

After discovering this situation, Wen Xin was so happy that she went crazy. This is more powerful than a refrigerator, so I don’t have to worry about it being wasted in the future. The only thing I feel dissatisfied with is that the space is too small.

Those vegetables piled up together took up a lot of land, but she couldn't eat too much by herself, so Wen Xin decided to plant some precious and valuable things in the space.

Wenxin likes the roses in the corner very much, but she can't fill the whole space with roses. She plans to plant some medicinal materials, but she has no money to buy seeds.

"It seems that we have to sell a batch of vegetables so that we can afford to buy medicinal seeds, but how to explain the evergreens in winter?" Wen Xin was thinking about how to explain the origin of space vegetables, but someone came to the family.

In the end, Wen Xin decided to reclaim an open space on the mountain, and then took out the soil in the space to grow vegetables, saying that her vegetables were found on the mountain, and no one would be suspicious by then.

Carrying a small bundle of firewood home, she put most of the firewood into the space. After a long time in the deep mountains, Wenxin found that no matter what kind of animal it was, she would not be afraid of her, and seemed to like her very much. Chai Chai Wenxin met a little tiger. At that time, her feet were so frightened that her feet went limp, but the little tiger came to rub her feet, just like those modern pet cats.

It was only after that incident that Wen Xin discovered that almost all animals were not afraid of her and would not hurt her.

When I got home, I saw Lu Fu, the former village chief, chatting with his grandfather in the courtyard. Wen Xin greeted him politely, and then went to the firewood house with the firewood on his back.

"Brother Wen, we used to be from the same village. You know how we are. Lu Qing was also raised by you. What do you think of what I said just now?" After Lu Fu finished speaking, he looked at Wen Xin more and more. Satisfied, she is so sensible at such a young age, it would be great for such a person to be a grandson's wife.

Wen Desheng has always admired scholars in his heart. He knows that Lu Qing will end next year. As long as he passes through, he will be a scholar. Eight generations of their ancestors have mud legs, and they have never produced a scholar. Wen Xin was able to marry Lu Qing, it was really a blessing from the ancestors.

It's just a pity that Huaifu got engaged, otherwise he really wanted to marry Huaifu to Lu Qing. It's unclear how a hunter can compare with a scholar.

"Village Chief, you also know about my family's situation. What do you think about this dowry?" Although Wen Desheng was satisfied with Lu's family, he still did not give up the idea of ​​making money, but he did not dare to use the bridge too much. He was afraid that the village chief would Turn around and leave.

The village chief knew Wen Desheng very well, so he took out a tael of silver and handed it to Wen Desheng while talking, thinking that Wen Desheng had a good heart, and he would be filial to his parents-in-law and treat Lu Qing kindly in the future.

Wen Desheng took the silver and was not very satisfied in his heart. You must know that Shang Qing was just a hunter, and he gave five taels when he was engaged, and even admitted 15 taels as the betrothal gift.

Although he disagreed in his heart, Wen Desheng agreed to the marriage because Lu Qing was a scholar. Wen Desheng accepted the money and called Zhang Hong to ask her to change the name card. The two parties also made a contract.

Zhang Hong listened to Wen Qingfu talk in her sleep at night, saying that she wanted to sell Wen Xin and get a lot of money.When Wen Desheng asked her to change the name post, she still didn't want to change it, but seeing Wen Desheng's face getting worse and worse, she had to change it, thinking about what to do when Wen Qingfu came back.

Wen Xin has never liked to talk to her family members. In her heart, apart from Wen Le, she has not really recognized these family members, especially Zhang Hong and Wen Qingfu.

Wen Xin didn't know that the marriage of daughters in common people's families in ancient times was decided by the elders of the family, and some girls didn't even know about it until the day before they got married.

No one deliberately told Wen Xin, and Wen Xin had no idea that she had been promised.

When Lu Fu returned home, his expression was a little off, because Wen Desheng asked him to add another two taels of silver as the dowry, and also told him about Wen Huaifu's marriage.

"What's the matter, don't the Wen family agree? They are really good at taking bridges. They don't think that our Qing'er is willing to marry Wen Xin because their ancestors cultivated blessings. Maybe they will refuse." Yang Hong saw that Lu Fu's face was ugly. , felt that the marriage proposal was not going well, and she was secretly happy. According to her, Wen Xin was not worthy to be Qing'er's daughter-in-law at all, and taking a concubine was more or less the same.

Knowing that Lu Fu hated those big families taking concubines, Yang Hong never dared to say so even if he had this in mind.

Lu Fu sat down with a tired face, and told Yang Hong about Wen Huaifu, and Yang Hong jumped up after listening.

"Oh my god, the bride price of 15 taels of silver, the engagement of five taels of silver, what kind of shit luck is this Wen Huaifu, it's not that Wen Desheng deliberately made big talk about you, just want us to pay more money "Yang Hong didn't believe what Lu Fu said at all, thinking that Wen Desheng must be lying.

I felt even more determined that it would be better if this marriage was not married. I really don't know why Qing'er fell in love with that thin and ugly Wen Xin, and if she won a scholar and became an official, she would be afraid that she would not be able to marry a daughter-in-law. I really don't understand.

"Oh..." Lu Fu sighed before continuing: "I agreed to the dowry gift of two taels of silver, and exchanged name cards. This marriage is considered settled, but where can I borrow two taels of silver? Fortunately, Wen Xin Since Qing'er and Qing'er are still young, we can only get married two years later."

Lu Fu was worried about the two taels of silver. You must know that he has no way to earn money. A few days ago, his son went to the city to find a job, and was beaten by other people who were looking for a job. For a month, Qing'er didn't have the money to buy the books he wanted to read, and it was about to end next year, so what would he do if he didn't have money.

After careful calculation, Lu Fu found that there were too many places to spend money, and he only gave birth to one son, Lu Kai, and his son had only one child, Lu Qing. The family's labor force is very small, even if Kaichun can work in the fields There are only a few of them, and the harvest of the wasteland must not be as good as before.

Hearing that Lu Fu accepted the betrothal gift of two taels of silver, Yang Hong immediately started cursing, saying that Wen Xin was not worth the price, and giving her one tael of silver was to think highly of her. According to her, Wen Xin wanted to marry They are young, you have to give them money.

"Grandma, don't worry, I will be up to the challenge, next year I will be admitted as a scholar, and then I will let you live a good life, so don't blame Wen Xin, she is actually very good." Lu Qing heard grandma scolding Wen from a distance. Heart, hurried in, anxious to know whether this marriage will be successful or not.

Ever since Wen Xin separated from him, he didn't know what happened. He always thought of Wen Xin's eyes that seemed to be smiling, and even saw her in his dreams. When he closed his eyes, she looked like she was smiling sweetly. Thinking that it would be great if he could see her every day, this thought was like a weed that took root in his heart, and it happened that his grandma was showing him someone, so he said that he only wanted to marry Wen Xin.

Lu Qing knew that grandpa had no problem with Wen Xin, but grandma didn't like Wen Xin very much. Parents listened to him in everything, as long as he liked it, they would like it too.

"Just speak nicely to her. Do you know that their family needs a dowry gift of two taels of silver? It's not like you don't know about our family's situation. Qing'er isn't grandma talking about you, so let's not talk about Wenxin, it's better than her." There are so many girls here, grandma will definitely find you the one you like." Yang Hong persuaded Lu Qing, because those girls all wanted to marry Lu Qing, and they showed their meaning inside and out, and they would support Lu Qing with money read.
