267 Ancient times with little entertainment

Carpenter Zhou and his wife not only gave Da Ya and Er Ya New Year's money, but also gave Niu Dali and Li Xianglan a red wedding bag.
As the saying goes, the elders cannot refuse the gifts, and it is disrespectful to say goodbye. Niu Dali couldn't refuse the two old men's wishes, so he had to accept them.
Zhou Huang touched Li Xianglan's hand and smiled lovingly: "I hope you two will have a happy marriage for a hundred years, and your life will be happier and more auspicious. Well, it's best to add another person!"
"Mom, grandma asked you to give birth to a younger brother for us!" Da Ya said with a smile.
"Why is it my younger brother? I want my sister. If I have a sister, I can protect her in the future!!" Erya thought it would be better for her sister, so she could take her sister around to play in the future.
"Brother can protect you too!" said Da Ya.
"It's different. My brother must be very naughty. Brother Xiao Hei is very naughty and he still doesn't listen to Xiao Hei's words." Erya said unconvincedly.
The two girls started arguing over their younger brothers and sisters.
If it were normal, Li Xianglan would definitely teach two little girls a lesson.
But at this moment, her face was red when she was said, and her eyes couldn't help but look at Niu Dali beside her, and she shyly lowered her head and said softly.
Carpenter Zhou and his wife looked at each other with a satisfied smile on their lips.
"Okay, okay, both brothers and sisters want it!" Zhou Huang said with a smile.
Afterwards, Li Xianglan and Da Ya helped in the kitchen. Er Ya wanted to help, but Li Xianglan did not allow it.
But the little girl was unhappy and said she would help Grandma Zhou anyway. Zhou Huang couldn't bear Erya's unhappy, so she asked Erya to help in the kitchen, while Carpenter Zhou and Niu Dali were chatting outside the yard.
There was a table with a plate of five-spice melon seeds on it. The two of them were talking about things while kneading the melon seeds. Those who didn't know thought they were two fathers and sons.
"Dali, your five-spice melon seeds taste good and are better than the tea egg. Are you planning to plant these melon seeds this year?" said Carpenter Zhou, knocking on the five-spice melon seeds.
"Well! I bought more than ten acres of dry land and started sowing at the beginning of the year." Niu Dali said without hiding it.
"More than ten acres! I don't know how spectacular it is!"
Carpenter Zhou sighed, Dali had only planted half acres of land, which made many scholars watch. Now he has to plant more than ten acres of land. If it is planted, it will be a large area of ​​golden color, which is much more spectacular than rice fields.
Niu Dali smiled honestly, whether it was magnificent or not, he didn't know whether it was strong or not, but there must be a lot of melon seeds.
"By the way, I heard that you plan to persuade Shi Hu to agree to Shi Hu marry Sun's Widow?" Zhou Carpenter smiled.
Niu Dali smiled awkwardly and nodded, "That boy Shi Hu likes the Sun family's wife. I'm afraid that Aunt Wang will not agree, so I scared her. You also know the reputation of the Sun family's wife in the village."
Carpenter Zhou waved his hand and said, "Shi Hu's mother is not the kind of person who values ​​reputation? You are young. I don't know that Shi Hu's mother was famous for being in her parents' home when she was young."
Niu Dali was surprised, "There is still this matter!"
However, it was clear that Carpenter Zhou and Wang Shihu's parents were of the same generation. I was afraid that when Carpenter Zhou got married, he might have inquired about the situation of many girls' homes.
Carpenter Zhou nodded and said, "But that's also helpless. Shi Hu's mother's parents' family is soft-spoken and is controlled by her grandparents. His grandparents are also a boyish person. They don't treat their sisters as a person, but they want to sell them. I remember one time, Shi Hu's mother held a kitchen knife and chased her milk all over the village, saying that if she dared to sell her sister, she would fight with anyone!"
Speaking of this, Carpenter Zhou couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Later, many people said that no one dared to marry Shi Hu's mother, but who would have thought that he would be married home by Shi Hu's father in just two years!"
In ancient times, reputation was generally very eye-catching. As long as the family had better conditions, people would naturally not marry some girls with bad reputations, let alone girls who were disrespectful to their elders.
Niu Dali said curiously: "Will Shi Hu's grandparent agree at that time?"
Carpenter Zhou smiled and said, "Of course I don't agree, but in the end, Shi Hu's father said that he would not marry Shi Hu's mother, so he would never marry him for the rest of his life, and finally agreed."
Niu Dali also laughed. He didn't expect that there would be such news in Shi Hu's family. What he didn't expect was that the amiable Aunt Wang had such tough deeds.
Carpenter Zhou sighed, "That happened many years ago. Later, after Shi Hu's mother married into our village, she was filial to her elders and helped her brothers, sisters-in-law and sister-in-law. Whoever saw Shi Hu's mother would not say anything about virtue."
In this way, Widow Sun can really catch Aunt Wang's eyes.
Carpenter Zhou seemed to see Niu Dali's idea and smiled, "I think, Shi Hu's mother was probably seeing your intentions a long time ago, but she just didn't want to name the name. When you will tell her clearly one day?"
Niu Dali was a little stunned when he heard this, but the more he thought about it, the more he agreed with Carpenter Zhou's words.
Wang Shihu bought a piece of land next to his house and was about to build a new house, but Aunt Wang actually agreed.
Another last time, when their family was making tea eggs, Aunt Wang came several times, saying that she would come over to see it, and asked if she needed help.
At that time, he didn't dare to ask Aunt Wang to help with the work, but just asked her to sit in the room.
Could it be that Aunt Wang was watching Widow Sun that time?
If this is the case, it seems that we must seize the time to tell Wang Shihu, and don’t let Wang Shihu wait in a hurry.
"Dad, Grandpa Zhou, the food is ready and you can have a meal!" Erya jogged out of the house and said in a sweet voice.
"Okay, okay!" Carpenter Zhou smiled very happily and touched Erya's little head with his hands.
After lunch at Zhou's house, several people chatted about family matters together. They didn't go home until almost the afternoon of Shen Shizhong. The two girls reluctantly said goodbye.
When he returned home, Niu Dali told Li Xianglan what Carpenter Zhou had said during the day. When Li Xianglan heard it, she looked incredible just like Niu Dali's thoughts.
You should know that Aunt Wang is also famous in the village. She is kind and kind, kind and friendly, and never shows off her character in front of her younger generations. Moreover, when she was at Lao Niu's house, thanks to Aunt Wang's secret help, Li Xianglan could survive so many years.
"I didn't expect Aunt Wang to have such a glorious deeds when she was young!" Li Xianglan said with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect it!" Niu Dali also smiled bitterly.
"Brother Dali, do you think Aunt Wang knows what we are doing? Should we talk to Shi Hu?" Li Xianglan said.
"Let's go in two days, let that kid wait!" Niu Dali said.
There was very little entertainment in ancient times. There was nothing else except visiting relatives to greet New Year's greetings and chatting about family matters. Unlike later generations, they could only take several nights to surf the Internet, play mahjong, and play poker.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it is also called Red Dog Day. Everything is not suitable. In order to avoid the danger, few villagers choose to travel.
