Chapter 2947 Liu’s distant sister-in-law (third update)
After Mrs. Liu and Liu’s distant sister-in-law sat down, they cracked melon seeds and drank tea, and said a lot of compliments and envy to Mrs. Sun. .
Sun sat aside and listened patiently with a smile, without showing any impatience.
Xiaohua was sitting not far behind Mrs. Sun, where she was doing needlework, listening and sitting with her.
Here, Mrs. Liu’s sister-in-law said: “Mother Zhuangyuan, you are really a kind and unassuming person.”
"Unlike other people who turn their nostrils into the air once they gain power, you are not. You are really friendly to people. No wonder my mother-in-law, Ju'er, talks about the people and things in her husband's family every time she goes back to her family. You praise yourself to death.”
“Juerniang said, there are so many in Lao Yang’s house. In 2017, you were the best to me as the number one scholar. When I saw her today, I realized it was like this..."
"No wonder your family can produce the number one scholar. This is really because the upper generation is good, and the next generation is the best." What's the future?" Mrs. Liu likes to talk the most, and she hasn't stopped talking since she sat down to meditate.
While talking, the topic turned to Daan’s marriage.
"Dear No. 1 Scholar, I would like to ask you, how old is your No. 1 Scholar this year?" Liu's sister-in-law leaned forward and asked.
Here, Xiaohua, who was immersed in sewing, tensed up and moved her ears slightly.
Here, Mrs. Sun was about to answer, Mrs. Liu on the side said first: "Sixteen, it will be seventeen after the New Year!"
"Really?" Sister-in-law Liu smiled. Then ask Sun again.
Ms. Sun smiled and nodded, "Yes, Madam Ju'er is right. His birthday is in April, and he will be seventeen after the Chinese New Year."
Sister-in-law Liu Said: "It's really amazing to get the top prize at such a young age!"
Mrs. Liu rushed back and said: "It's all straight up in the middle. Regardless of whether it's the scholar examination, the imperial examination, or the later Jinshi examination, you can pass it in one try."
"No. For example, the eldest son of our family, Yongxian, took the exam three or five times to become a scholar, but later gave up.”
“Yongxian’s father used to take the exam. , Yang Huaming’s eldest brother is even worse. After studying for more than ten or twenty years, he is almost going to bankrupt our old Yang family. He hasn’t even found a scholar, and he will still be a child until he dies. Tsk tsk... ..."
"Come, drink tea and eat melon seeds," Mrs. Sun interrupted Liu's words, picked up the plate with melon seeds on the table and greeted them.
Mr. Liu's eyes lit up when she saw the melon seeds. She reached out and grabbed a handful, sat there and started eating them.
Here, Liu's sister-in-law gave Sun a thumbs up, "The number one scholar in your family really has magical powers. It's so amazing. I really admire him!"
Sun smiled again. Her child was When others praise you, you must be in a good mood.
"I heard that the number one scholar in your family is not only talented, but he is also very handsome. He is the handsome man from eight villages in ten miles and eight villages?" Liu's sister-in-law asked.
Without giving Mrs. Sun a chance to answer, Ms. Liu spit out the melon seed shells in her mouth and rushed to say: "Is there any need to say that? Many girls can't give birth to Da'an's handsome appearance, but It's strange to say that he is handsome but not feminine at all. , He has the appearance of an authentic man, a handsome man, he is really a handsome man..."
Sister-in-law Liu glanced at Mr. Liu, then turned to ask Ms. Sun: "In that case, Then you should already be married, right?”
"Also..." Mrs. Sun just moved her lips, but Mrs. Liu interrupted the topic again.
"What? You're almost seventeen, and you're not married yet." Mrs. Liu said.
“His aunt’s cousin Dajie is about the same age as him. The two of them went to school together before.”
“Dajie is getting married in the first month of the year. Not yet "I, the fourth aunt, am worried about him, but every time I mention it to my third brother and sister-in-law, they say there is no rush, let Da'an concentrate on studying first."
"Well, now that I've passed the exam, I'm finally looking forward to getting ahead and can talk about marriage seriously!" Mrs. Liu said.
Sister-in-law Liu nodded in agreement, and then she said: "We have to hurry up and talk about marriage. Marry your daughter-in-law as soon as possible, raise your husband and raise your children, and serve your parents-in-law. He might as well He only wants to work as an official outside, and then get promoted and make a fortune."
Sun also smiled and said, "His father and I don't want him to get promoted and make a fortune. I just hope that he will be safe and sound."
Ms. Liu said: "Third sister-in-law, Da'an has climbed to that height, but you and my third brother can't help but hope for this and that. He. My path is destined to be an official.”
“By the way, Sister-in-law, it’s fate that all three of us are here today.”
Mrs. Liu pointed to her distant sister-in-law beside her, "My sister-in-law lives in Fenglin Town. There are eight grain farms in Fenglin Town, and six of them belong to her family."
"The couple had two sons before them, and they were both married to the daughters of wealthy families in Maplewood Town."
"Now they have two sons. There is a third girl, everyone calls her Third Girl.” Her appearance is not comparable to that of these girls in our family, she is so pretty!"
Mrs. Liu said with a squeaking sound and her saliva was splashing.
Sister-in-law Liu sat aside and drank tea in silence, with a proud smile on her face.
Sun smiled and listened patiently.
Previously, people were praising their own children vigorously, but now it is the turn of other people’s children, so naturally they have to be patient enough to listen.
Xiaohua on the side was also listening, and couldn't help but snicker secretly in her heart.
Because what the fourth aunt Liu said was really exaggerated, especially when she was praising how beautiful the third girl was, she had to pull them out for comparison. It was really... ugh !
Especially when talking about the beauty of the third girl, it shocked everyone in all directions, so much so that the son of the county magistrate's family came to ask for his hand in marriage, and even knelt at the door of the courtyard of the third girl's house and refused to walk that section. Xiaohua couldn't help but burst into laughter. .
"You girl, why are you laughing?" Mrs. Liu glared at Xiaohua a little unhappily and said.
Sister-in-law Liu also glanced at Xiaohua at this time.
Xiaohua paused her sewing and suppressed her laughter: "Sorry, Aunt Four, I thought of a joke my eldest sister told me before, and I couldn't help but laugh."< br>
"What kind of joke did Qing'er tell you? To make you laugh like this, you don't even care that we elders are still talking here?" Ms. Liu, however, ignored her and asked Xiaohua.
Xiaohua was a little surprised, then blushed and apologized to everyone again.
Sun said: "It's okay, you just do what you do."
Liu's sister-in-law didn't say anything, but Liu still looked unhappy.
"Xiao Hua, then I will punish you by saying the little Hua that you thought of earlier to make us laugh. If it's not funny, I will say that you are too young and don't understand the rules!" Mrs. Liu said .
He kept praising the third girl for how well she understood the principles and obeyed the rules, which made Mrs. Liu's own speech become 'profound' and 'literary'.
