In the middle of July, the fruits of Yuguoyuan begin to mature one after another, and they are ready for picking.
Ever since someone from the Zhao family in the county asked to buy their own fruits, Li Sanzhu felt as if a big stone was weighing on his heart.
This year's fruit harvest looks like a bumper harvest. Who makes their own fruit famous? In fact, there is not enough fruit for Zheng Cheng and Hu San's family. How can there be any extra fruit for the Zhao family?
Looking at the Zhao family, it was obvious that they had the idea of buying and selling by force. This is really not a good thing.
Li Sanzhu also said that if it didn't work, he would discuss it with the three families. Unexpectedly, no one from the Zhao family came to the house to ask for fruit purchase.
This really made Li Sanzhu breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he calmly asked people to inquire about the family's origins.
The old and new county magistrates alternated, and the Zhao family was imprisoned in the county government prison at lightning speed by the old magistrate Qiao, who was about to be promoted. Later, the county government announced the crimes committed by the Zhao family in the form of notices.
To say that raping women, occupying fertile farmland, and buying murders to injure others is enough to shock the people of Linshan County, then the discovery of dozens of old and new corpses in the deep well in the backyard of Zhao's house is outrageous and outrageous.
The persons involved in the case of the Zhao family were executed by County Magistrate Qiao, and the rest of the Zhao family were sentenced to three thousand li.
Magistrate Qiao handled such a big and satisfying case before the transfer was handed over, and the entire Linshan County people praised and applauded.
Li Sanzhu had been paying attention to the affairs of the Zhao family, and he applauded County Magistrate Qiao's resolute and resolute behavior in his heart.
After dinner that day, Li Qiusui heard her father nagging again, "How is the new county magistrate doing? This magistrate Qiao really deserves to be called our parent officer! Not to mention the past two years. There are droughts and floods, and this is what happened to the Zhao family..."
Li Sanzhu was frothing at the mouth, and he was no longer the taciturn, honest and steady person he looked like outside in front of his wife and children.
In the past few days, Li Qiusui's ears were getting calluses when she heard what her father said, and she couldn't help but want to curl her lips.
Without thinking of a way to change the topic, it was estimated that her father would start half an hour later this time.
"Mom, did Mrs. Cheng say when is the right time for us to propose marriage? Is Sister Chu still at the female gentleman's house at the moment?"
As soon as Li Qiu Sui said these words, Li Sanzhu stopped nagging.
The top priority at home right now is to find a wife for Li Changshan.
Mrs. Chen came to reply two days ago. Although the female gentleman is the biological aunt of the two Chu girls, she cannot directly make the decision on the marriage. It must be approved by their biological father and stepmother.
I wonder what the female gentleman said when he came to your door?
Fortunately, their father was reliable for once.
This is why this marriage has been delayed for so long.
Mrs. Liu smiled from ear to ear when she talked about her eldest son's marriage. There was nothing to say about the appearance of the Da Chu girl. The most important thing was that she was gentle, virtuous and could read and write.
"After we prepare the eight gifts for proposing marriage, we can go to ask Mrs. Cheng to help propose marriage. It's time for the two Chu girls to return to the Chu family. The female gentleman acted vigorously and neatly. He went to the Chu family to discuss the matter that day. The two Chu girls were asked to return to the Chu family that day."
Mrs. Liu sighed again: "I really wish the marriage could be settled as soon as possible! I don't dare to think about getting married this year. Next year your eldest brother will be eighteen, and Miss Chu will be sixteen too. We don't have to wait until the end of the year to get married." "
I am busy working at home and outside every day. I have to learn to read and write in my free time, and I have to learn and sell now. I feel like my head is going to explode.
The two daughters can help each other, but the eldest daughter is already fourteen during the Chinese New Year, and the girl's marriage cannot be delayed.
This was also the reason why Mrs. Liu had always been frowning.
Li Changshan was surrounded by men, and he married a daughter-in-law who came from her own family to live a life. As long as the girl's family didn't have any serious problems, her family's current life would be enough.
It is said that finding a girl's in-laws is a second reincarnation. When living in a girl's family, it is not only important to have a trustworthy husband and wife, but also to be easy to get along with the family.
Mrs. Liu and Li Sanzhu had agreed that once the eldest son's marriage was completed, they would put aside the marriage of the second son and find a husband for the eldest daughter.
Xia He didn't know what his parents were thinking. He just felt that his family would be extremely happy to marry his sister-in-law next year. "Mom, hurry up and prepare those eight gifts."
Li Qiu Sui nodded and turned to look at her eldest brother standing next to her. He was so quiet that he listened to their conversation with his ears turned red.
She became petty and continued what Xia He said: "... Let's get our eldest brother a wife as soon as possible! Why can't we get married this year? Don't everyone say that if you have money but don't have money, it's better to have a wife to celebrate the New Year!"
Xia He was still helping, "Yes, yes! I heard many people in the village say this. Mom, what are the eight etiquettes? No, let's help prepare them together!"
"Do you need wild geese to propose marriage? I heard people say that all the most discerning people want wild geese! The mountain behind us is just a walk away. I'll take care of this!" Li Changlei was gearing up, looking like he was going to hunt wild geese right away. .
Li Changshan was a little embarrassed at first, but because it was his marriage, he suppressed his shyness and wanted to hear it with his own ears. Unexpectedly, his younger brother and sister paid more attention to every word he said than he did, and he couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Li Qiu Sui encouraged Li Changlei, "Second brother, go! Let's catch two live geese for the eldest brother..."
Li Changshan stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Qiu Sui's face, and said quickly before he started talking: "You are the worst and the best at making noises, a stinky girl! How can country people be so particular? I asked Miss Chu for her opinion, and she prepared eight common gifts. Just come to your door to propose marriage!"
Before the words were spoken, he left in a hurry without giving everyone a chance to react.
It looked like a dog chased him from behind!
Is this making people angry?
Li Qiu Sui didn't mind Li Changshan grabbing her cheek and laughing with her sister Xia He...
Liu and Li Sanzhu shook their heads helplessly and refused to scold them. There was a happy event in the family, and it was human nature for brothers and sisters to joke and joke among themselves. They would not take the initiative to interfere with the relationship between several children.
…
Zhao Da was still busy in the county these days, and most of the news Li Sanzhu got from him was transmitted through Zhou Ping, which was still under Li Qiusui's orders.
The blind mother-in-law and her grandson have been settled here. Zhao Da is about to return to Lijiacun. There are many things that he needs to talk to the girl face to face. There are also so many fruit trees planted at home that he cannot live without people day and night. If he goes back early, he can help. .
Zhao Da told his grandfather and grandson, "You guys can live here with peace of mind. The owner of the house bought it and doesn't plan to live in it for a while. I bought an old couple who specializes in guarding and cleaning the yard. If you are free, It’s okay to help me clean up the yard. If my relatives come to look for me, if there’s a better place to go, I can just leave a message and I want to leave.”
One of the grandfather and grandson is blind and the other is heartbroken. The girl looked seventeen or eighteen at most. Ever since she left the Zhao family, she had not spoken a word.
Zhao Da had seen many pitiful people, and he was so angry that he couldn't help but say one more thing, "Your grandma is old. She didn't know whether you were alive or dead before, and she cried blindly. Later, I came to find you, and even risked my life to get you back." Fair enough. Think about the dozen or so bones in Zhao’s well..."
The little girl burst into tears all of a sudden, hunched over and covering her face, sobbing, "I know, I know... We have no place to go, and no relatives are willing to take us in. My grandma is old and her eyesight is bad. Going outside will lead to death sooner or later... Please, let our grandparents and grandchildren stay, and I will work hard to clean the yard!"
After saying that, she pulled her grandma to kneel down to Zhao Da.
Zhao Da stopped him and said, "I'll go back and tell the master's family, and I'll come back in two days to give you the confirmation."
This kind of thing has to be decided by a girl...
Over there, Wang Mao personally found the house here. The person who came to spread the message was the old woman of Zhao Damai's caretaker couple. Her old man was still outside the door to stop people.
Zhao Da knew exactly why Wang Mao came, and he couldn't help but want to sneer.
Changshun's big boss and the white manager were in front of the girl, and they kept saying they were looking for trouble for the Zhao family. They shouted slogans loudly, but they actually had the intention of not offending both parties.
As for Manager Huang, he begged the girl to see a doctor, and he looked honest on his face. That day he quietly touched and talked to him and told him that Wang Mao was hooking up with the Zhao family. Is this really a kind thing?
