Bao Suyun thought for a moment and said: "It took about two bowls of tea before you arrived."

Yang Ruoqing said: "It's about forty miles from the county seat to Qingshui Town. I guess they got up before dawn and started on their way."

Bao Suyun said: "That's right. I got the message from Yongzhi yesterday, so I packed my things that night and set out before dawn."

"Before, Liu'er said that she would wait until she returned to the village before letting them come over. Now she can't wait to come and see her. It shows that this brother and aunt really love Liu'er, the younger sister."

"Even if my parents have left long ago, after all, having a biological brother means I have a family!"

If his own brother had not had an accident back then, he would probably be very rare for Dabao and Mianmian now.

Looking back at the time when I was in my parents' family and later when I married Yang Huazhou, it was all because I had an elder brother who was supporting me and making arrangements.

Otherwise, according to the intolerable temper of my sister-in-law Zhou, she, Dabao, mother and son would have been sold to others long ago.

It's a pity that eldest brother left early...

Hearing Bao Suyun's words, Yang Ruoqing also recalled her fifth aunt's biological eldest brother.

He was the biological eldest brother who was dependent on the fifth aunt. When the fifth aunt gave birth to Mianmian, he fell off the ladder while renovating the house and lost his temper.

When the news reached Changping Village, the fifth aunt was so sad that she gave up all her milk at that time.

Mianmian howled with hunger. It was Tangyazi who went to the mountains to catch a female goat.

It happened that the female goat had just given birth to a lamb, and the lamb was eaten by other wild animals. If Luo Fengtang had not rescued her in time, the female goat would also have died.

Mianmian grew up eating the milk of that female goat.

Sensing that Bao Suyun was a little depressed, Yang Ruoqing quickly found some other topics to distract her attention.

"Mianmian's uncle is still alive in heaven. Seeing that you, fifth aunt, have a son and a daughter now, and that my fifth uncle loves you, he will definitely be pleased." Yang Ruoqing said.

"By the way, fifth aunt, will Dabao be fifteen years old after the Chinese New Year?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Bao Suyun nodded, "Yes, he was born in the second half of the month, so he was born in the second half of the year."

Yang Ruoqing said: "I also remembered. At that time, I accompanied my fifth uncle to go on a blind date with my fifth aunt. I was thirteen years old that year, and Dabao seemed to be more than two years old. I am eleven years older than him.

I will be almost twenty-six at the end of the year, and he is about fifteen."

Bao Suyun smiled and said: "Do you still remember what happened at that time? It has been twelve years, and I can't even remember it clearly."

Yang Ruoqing also laughed.

"The days go by so fast. Dabao is almost fifteen. In two or three years, we will arrange a marriage for him. His wife will marry him. My fifth aunt and your wife will become a mother-in-law."

"This bright new house will be even more lively. When the time comes, my daughter-in-law will strive to give you grandchildren. The days will be better and better as time goes by. It will be prosperous and lively!"

Bao Suyun said with a smile: "Dabao is younger than Xiao An. Xiao An's brother is not married yet, and his younger brother is not in a hurry."

Even though he said this, Bao Suyun's eyes suddenly brightened a bit, immersed in this beautiful blueprint...

We returned to the village at noon. As soon as the carriage stopped, and before anyone could sit down and take a breath, Xiaohua came over with Feng'er.

"Why do you look so worried?" Yang Ruoqing could tell at a glance that Xiaohua was worried.

Xiaohua said: "Sister, do you want to have lunch? If you are busy, I will come over to talk to you later."

Yang Ruoqing said: "It's okay. Just come to the kitchen with me while I cook. Today, my aunt and uncle went to visit relatives in Zhoujia Village. We have a simple lunch."

Xiaohua nodded and took Feng'er to the kitchen, letting Feng'er play on the side while Xiaohua stuffed firewood for Yang Ruoqing.

"I got mother's instruction last night, and today I found an opportunity to tell Xiaoduo that the cattle dealer from Xiangjiazhuang will bring his nephew Xiang Shengnan to our house for dinner tomorrow. I also told about this meal, and the real relationship between the two elders.

Intention..." Xiao Huadao.

"Then what? What did Xiaoduo say?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Xiao Hua said: "She seemed very unhappy."

"Not happy?" Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows.

While asking, the washed rice has already been put into the pot.

I picked up two more sweet potatoes, peeled them, washed them and put them aside. I will steam them together when I cook the rice soup.

"What are you not happy about? Are you not happy about going on a blind date with Xiang Shengnan?" She put the lid on the pot and asked.

"I didn't say it clearly, but I just didn't like it." Xiao Hua said.

Yang Ruoqing put her hands on her hips and looked at Xiaohua, looking hard to understand.

"She has never seen what Xiang Shengnan looks like, whether he is tall or short, fat or thin, so why does she refuse to go on a blind date? What's the point of this?" she asked.

Xiaohua shook her head: "I don't understand either, so I tried to persuade her, but she hesitated, saying that her leg was sprained, which made it difficult for her to move, so it was inconvenient for her to go on a blind date, so she asked us to postpone the date.

"

"Still pushing it back? She really can think about it!" Yang Ruoqing said.

"Does she know that the blind date was supposed to happen a long time ago? It's because of the continuous problems at home that it has been postponed again and again. For this reason, our father even suffered from Uncle Xiang's complaints!" Yang Ruoqing said, a little annoyed in her words.

Xiaohua also frowned and said, "I told him the same thing. I said that our father has already agreed with Uncle Xiang to invite people over for lunch tomorrow."

"Dad also said hello to my uncle and aunt, asking them to kill the pig tomorrow and leave a pair of pig's feet and pork belly. He said he was going to entertain guests! I don't know what Duo'er is feeling."

Yang Ruoqing thought about it for a moment and said: "A sprained ankle is not a real excuse to resist the blind date. I feel there is something hidden in it."

"Sister, what should we do now?" Xiaohua asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Cook the food first, and after dinner I will go over and help her finish her ideological work."

"Doing ideological work? What do you mean?" Xiaohua was confused by Yang Ruoqing's new words and asked.

Yang Ruoqing was also stunned for a moment, and then waved her hand: "I just went over to be a lobbyist to persuade her and make her willing to go on a blind date!"

"Oh, so that's what it means. I understand." Xiaohua smiled, and then stood up: "Sister, I will go back first. Dad is having dinner at Uncle Chang Geng's house this afternoon. I will go and give Xiaoduo's medicine.

Let her drink it and take a nap when it gets hot."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Then you two sisters are at home with Feng'er. Have you three eaten?"

Xiaohua smiled and said: "After eating noodles, sister, you must remember to come over in the afternoon. Uncle Xiang and the others will be over tomorrow."

"And our father doesn't know about this yet, so I'm hiding it from him first!" Xiaohua was a little worried.
