Liu Tong had a very painful few days.
Tan Tong simply regarded him as a thorn in his side, and would always find something to deal with him no matter what happened.
He was just a doctor, with the same official rank as Zuo Shilang, and there was two ranks between him and him.
The first level of the official level crushed a person to death, but now the two levels not only crushed him to death, but almost crushed him.
Fortunately, although Pan Huang was an old man in the officialdom, he was not a bad person. He had some feelings for Xiao Feng before, so he didn't leave immediately and gave him some relief from time to time.
But this is only when Pan Huang can pretend to be confused. If he talks about raising the Yan family, Pan Huang will immediately pretend that nothing is wrong and walk away without looking at Liu Tong's sad eyes.
Liu Tong learned from the experience and felt that the problem was all with her daughter. Yan Shifan kept an eye on his daughter just to get revenge on Xiao Feng.
So, the key to solving the problem is...
"What? You want to marry Xue'er? I don't agree! Xue'er is sad right now, you have to give her some time!"
Mrs. Liu angrily refused Liu Tong's proposal, but Liu Tong finally persuaded her by telling the truth and telling her his tragic experience in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
"And this is also for Xue'er's good. If Xue'er stays in the boudoir, Yan Shifan will not give up this idea.
Although I am temporarily using the wrong door to withstand it now, but what about after the Spring Festival? Yan Shifan should be able to win the first prize!
What other reasons can I use to prevaricate? We can only go head-to-head with the Yan family. Isn’t that an egg against a rock? "
The next thing is simple. Liu Tong started to hint through his friends that my cabbage has just begun to grow, and all pig farmers can consider growing it!
I thought that pig farmers would flock to my cabbage because it was fresh and tender. Unexpectedly, after the news spread, very few people responded.
Liu Tong was so anxious that the first thing he did when he got home every day was to ask the housekeeper if anyone came to propose marriage.
On the first night, the housekeeper told Liu Tong that only one family came to propose marriage. Liu Tong was very dissatisfied: Too few. Why am I, the dignified Miss Liu, so unpopular?
The next night, the housekeeper told Liu Tong that there was no one at home today! Liu Tong lost his temper: No, even if there is a family, that's fine.
On the third night, the housekeeper told Liu Tong that it was not as good as yesterday! Liu Tong got angry: "Fart, there was no one in the family yesterday, how can we do anything wrong?"
"Master, the family that came to propose marriage the day before yesterday came over and canceled the proposal."
Liu Tong really couldn't figure it out and was extremely depressed. Instead of going home after her shift, she secretly went to complain to her drinking buddies.
Dr. Jing shook his head and looked at him sympathetically.
"Old Liu, you are not well-informed enough.
Then Yan Shifan asked the officials of the Yan Party to go around and warn the officials that anyone who dared to propose marriage to the Liu Mansion would be robbing the Yan Mansion's daughter-in-law and working against the Yan Mansion!
Think about it, officials and officials marry for the sake of strong alliances. Who wants to get into trouble for this?
Besides, although your daughter is good-looking, she can't be said to be the most beautiful girl in the country. It's not worth offending the Yan family for her. "
Liu Tong looked at this guy with a deer head and rat eyes angrily, but she also knew that he was telling the truth.
Seeing that spring is about to begin, what will Yan Shifan do after he wins the first prize?
Liu Tong returned home full of worries, only to see that the house was brightly lit and there was a large table of sumptuous food and wine in the main hall.
The wife, daughter, and son were all sitting upright at the table, waiting for him, the head of the family, to come back for dinner.
Liu Tong suddenly burst into tears: This is home, a home that is always warm. No matter how much grievances I receive outside, as long as I go home, everything will be fine!
It was you who gave me a piece of sky. It was you who gave me a piece of sky. Even if the whole world starts to snow, I will see spring when I approach you...
Liu Tong was completely moved, while the three ladies over there were winking at each other. When Liu Tong sat down, Liu Xueer stood up and poured a full glass of wine for Liu Tong.
Red medicinal wine, the butler's unique secret recipe. Liu Tong raised his head in surprise and saw his wife's spring-flowered smile, which suddenly felt like his first love.
"Master, eat two bites of food first before drinking, so as not to get drunk quickly if you drink on an empty stomach."
The lady pretended not to notice that Liu Tong's mouth was full of alcohol, and she persuaded him to eat vegetables very gently and considerately.
Liu Tong ate the food with tears in her eyes, picked up the wine and drank it all in one gulp.
Then Liu Peng filled up another glass for Liu Tong, and Liu Tong drank it all in one gulp with tears in her eyes.
Then the lady filled up another glass for Liu Tong, and Liu Tong drank it all in one gulp.
He looked at the three cutest relatives with tearful eyes, feeling that he must satisfy any request they made at this time!
"Xue'er, Peng'er, madam, if you have any requests, just ask them and I will agree to them!"
"Dad, these days, my father is busy with his daughter's affairs. My daughter knows that she has suffered a lot from her father.
Therefore, the daughter decided not to let her father suffer any more! "
Liu Tong was so moved that her daughter finally realized all her hard work. What more could she ask for?
"Xue'er, don't worry, no matter how hard it is to be a father, I will never let you marry into the Yan family! It's okay for others to say that Yan Shifan is not a human being!"
"Dad, don't worry. My daughter is not willing to marry into the Yan Mansion. My daughter has decided to marry into the Xiao Mansion."
There was silence. Liu Tong wiped his tears and looked at the three guys digging a hole for him. He wanted to spit out all the three glasses of wine he had just had.
"Nonsense, I won't agree!"
That night, Mrs. Liu held Liu Tong in her arms and patiently reasoned with him.
"Master, I know your concerns. Xiao Feng has already gone, and Xue'er will be a widow when she comes. In fact, I don't want to either.
But think about it, Xueer has such a stubborn temper and hangs herself with a rope at every turn. Can I watch her for a while or for a lifetime?
Not to mention the threats from the Yan family, other families don't dare to come to propose marriage, even if they are brave enough, can you guarantee that the Yan family will not cause trouble again?
After Xueer got married, she had nothing to do with Xiao Feng. Long live promised to protect Xiao Feng's relatives and friends. Who will our family be then?
Besides, Xueer definitely can't agree to it. This is the thought that she has been tossing over and over these days. No matter how bad it is to be a widow, it is better than having your daughter die, right?
When my daughter enters the Xiao Mansion, she becomes the mistress of the house. Qiao Niang and Qiao Qiao are both good people, so Xiaomei will not be able to stand it if she follows her.
The most important thing is that the Yan family doesn't dare to touch Xue'er, and he doesn't even dare to touch our family, otherwise it will be a slap in the face of Long live.
Xueer is young and energetic, but after a few years of hard life, she may regret it.
Anyway, we have Xiao Feng's divorce document in hand. Xueer also has the autonomy whether to stay or leave.
Master, you are well-informed, do you think this is true? "
The madam hugged her too tightly, and Liu Tong's mouth was tightly blocked by the madam's breasts. He tried to refute several times but was blocked, so he could only listen calmly.
After listening, Liu Tong had to admit that what the madam said made sense, and he really couldn't think of a better way now.
Maybe, as the madam said, her daughter will regret it in a few years. She has Xiao Feng's divorce document in her hand, so she can regret it later.
And the madam is right, even if her daughter remains a widow for a few years, it is better than hanging herself. Of course, it would be better to hang yourself than to enter the Yan Mansion!
What's more, Madam's reasoning was so great that Liu Tong couldn't open his mouth, so Liu Tong simply lay down. Since you can't resist, just enjoy it.
So, early the next morning, Xiaomei took Liu Peng to the Xiao Mansion, found Qiao Niang who was weaving, and Qiao Qiao who was eating steamed buns, and told them the young lady's decision.
Qiao Niang, who refused to stop weaving no matter how much the Zhang family tried to persuade her, stopped her hand, and there was a glimmer of light in her dazed eyes, as if she had woken up from a nightmare.
Qiaoqiao, who was eating buns blankly next to her, also stopped eating buns and looked up at Qiao Niang. She wanted to say something, but she was filled with fear.
"Miss Xue'er, are you really willing to marry me? This would be too unfair to her."
Qiao Niang cried all of a sudden, and her tears wet the long woven cloth.
Modern people may not understand the significance of this matter, but it is actually the continuation of a family.
Xiao Feng is gone, and the last master of the Xiao family is gone. Qiao Niang and Qiao Qiao are just slaves, they are not qualified to guard this family.
If the Xiao family didn't have any relatives locally, they would have been kicked out of the house long ago. Fortunately, Jiajing's care and Zhang Tianci's care prevented such changes from happening.
But after all, this is not justified. When Jiajing has no time to take care of the Xiao family, the Xiao family will disappear sooner or later.
But if Liu Xueer marries over, it will be different. Now that the family has a mistress, it is a legal family!
Of course, it still can’t work without men, and it will still face the risk of disbandment at any time, but after all, there is a glimmer of hope!
This glimmer of hope is adoption. As the mistress, Liu Xueer can choose to adopt a boy as a continuation of the Xiao family's incense. This legality is recognized!
This is what Xiao Feng said to Xiao Qin. In Han culture, the grace of nurturing is greater than the grace of childbearing, and the inheritance of family ties is greater than the inheritance of blood!
Qiao Niang had never dared to hope for it before. And when Liu Xueer passed out in front of Xiao Feng that day, everyone also saw the letter in her hand. Although I couldn't see carefully, I guessed the content.
Who would have thought that Liu Xueer would make such a decision? Qiao Niang put down the loom in her hand, pulled Qiao Qiao to stand up, and wanted to kneel down to Xiao Mei.
Xiaomei was so frightened that she quickly supported Qiao Niang. When Zhang Tianci and his family heard the noise, they all ran over. Except for Zhang Yunqing, who was in tears and seemed to be disappointed, they were all very happy.
Zhang Tianci hurriedly told Xiaomei: "Master Liu, please stay at home and I will prepare the betrothal gift.
I don't have enough face, Qi Jiguang hasn't come back yet, so I roped in Shen Lian and Zhan Yu and went to the Liu Mansion to propose marriage! "
Some people died, but not completely...
