Chapter 4 On Marriage

   Chapter 4 On Marriage

  The girls of the same age matched the memories in her mind, the little sisters when she was a girl.

  Liu Sanniang opened the door and let the little sisters enter the courtyard.

   Looking at the young and tender people, Liu Sanniang was a little flustered for a while.

Liu Hui looked at Liu Sanniang with a dazed expression, and asked worriedly, "Sanniang, are you still feeling well? Last time your mother asked Granny Li to come to reassure you. We all know that I wanted to see you in those days. , My mother said that your soul is restless, so don't let us disturb you."

  Liu Sanniang recalled the bad memory of drinking incense ash in those days, showing a bitter look.

   She never wanted to invite a goddess again in her life.

   "Sanniang, this is the brown sugar I brought you. I bought it myself. It is said to nourish the body. You boil water and drink it."

  Liu Hui opened the basket, which contained a small clay pot of brown sugar.

  This is an expensive thing, and it will cost some coins.

  Liu Sanniang subconsciously refused: "Xiaohui, I can't accept it."

Liu Hui smiled, her small round face and eyes were curved, and she had a pair of small dimples. She waved her hand: "No, I bought it with my own private money. We are good sisters. You are sick. I will come to see you. of."

   Liu Sanniang was very moved.

Liu Ju'er carefully opened the cloth of the basket, there were twelve yellow eggs inside, she smiled: "Sanniang, this is the hen I raised, it has laid eggs, and the first eggs are delicious to eat. Filled up."

   Willow Zhi'er also opened her own basket: "Sanniang, these are two little turtledoves caught by my brother. There is no meat, but the soup is delicious after you are bored."

  In the basket, two turtledoves with their wings tied were lying in the basket. They fluttered in horror and wanted to take off, but their wings were tied, and they couldn't escape the basket no matter how hard they tried.

   Liu Sanniang already had tears in her eyes.

   These little sisters never lived to the age of seventy in their last life, and they had always had a good relationship. After they died, Liu Sanniang never visited.

   Now, all alive in front of her, she wants to cry.

  Liu Hui became worried: "Sanniang, don't cry, my mother said, this requiem will take a long time, you rest well, we will see you next time."

   The three of them have gotten up and opened the door and walked out.

  Liu Sanniang wiped her tears and got up and ran to the door.

   Liu Hui and Liu Zhi'er both turned back and waved at her, motioning her to go back to the house.

   The three of them went to the corner of the alley and disappeared.

  Liu Sanniang took her eyes back and was about to close the door when she saw Chu Yan standing across from her yard, looking at her.

  Chu Yan's eyes were very deep, coupled with his inherent fierceness, Liu Sanniang felt her legs go weak just at a glance.

  This person is so scary, she hurriedly closed the door, as if a second later, a beast came to eat her.

  Chu Yan came to deliver the hoe, and as soon as he came out, he saw Liu Sanniang leaning against the courtyard gate with tears in her eyes, looking at the backs in front of her.

   She is very weak, so crying, Chu Yan couldn't take his eyes away, as if some beast was about to break free from the cage and escape.

   Liu Sanniang found her, and she looked so frightened... It wasn't like the sheep saw the wolf.

  Chu Yan suddenly laughed.

   He looked at the closed courtyard door not far from the opposite side, and strode away.

   All afternoon, Liu Sanniang never opened the door again.

   The sky also started to get dark.

   Liu Sanniang was busy in the kitchen.

  The two turtledoves sent by Willow Branch were drowned in water by her. After they were cleaned, they were chopped into pieces. A little oil was heated in the pot, and the turtledove meat was poured into it, and it was simmered with water and fragrant.

   At the same time, she also steamed wowotou.

   went to the backyard and chose a handful of small greens to keep.

   took a few potatoes and scraped them into pieces.

   She beat three more eggs and steamed them.

   When the Wei family came back, Liu Sanniang was adding potatoes to the pot.

   The umami taste of turtledoves makes people appetite, Wei Shi is satisfied and distressed: "Who asked you to do it, it's not good."

  Wei has three children, two sons and one daughter.

  Everyone cherishes a son, but she is different. This girl really hurts her heart.

  Daughter is fourteen, and the family of relatives is also active. When she thinks that her precious daughter is going to marry, Mrs. Wei is reluctant.

  Wei took the spoon from Liu Sanniang's hand: "Go to the fire, my mother will do it."

  Liu Sanniang was stunned for a while, the moment their hands touched, she heard the voice in Wei's heart.

  Wei thought to himself: Although there are a lot of relatives, I have to choose carefully. I must find a good husband for Sanniang. The scholar in Daliu Hutong is quite good. I don’t know if Sanniang will like it.

  Liu Sanniang:  …

   She doesn't like it, that scholar Liu Shun is broken.

   Liu Shun in his previous life, on the surface, was as gentle as jade. He was a scholar, and he was already a boy who was about to rely on talents and had a promising future.

   But in private, he is very violent, and his anger is all contained in his heart, and he loves to abuse living beings, whether it is a stray cat or a dog, if he meets him, he will not escape death.

   She was frightened by Liu Shun's ferocious appearance because she saw how he abused cats, so she begged Wei Shi not to accept this marriage.

   Later, Liu Shun married the daughter of a well-off owner of the bookstore. The family was just such a daughter, who devoted himself to studying for Liu Shun and helping him manage his relationship.

   But after Liu Shunzhong became an official, he broke up with this woman. At that time, there was a lot of trouble. Many people were saying that he was ungrateful and white-eyed. After a while, the rumors passed and the woman's family moved away.

  Liu Sanniang didn't expect that there would be a matchmaker who wanted to match her and Liu Shun at this time.

   In the past life, when Wei Shi asked her what was going on, it was only June.

   Liu Sanniang was absent-mindedly burning the fire.

  The sky was dark, the fireworks of various houses, and the aroma of the food wafted out.

  Wei's has already started to set up meals.

   The courtyard door rang, Liu Sanniang heard Liu Erlang's hum: "I'm so unlucky, I actually fell into the ditch, Chu Yan, thank you very much, if you just happened to pass by, I would have suffered more."

   Liu Sanniang came out of the kitchen when she heard the sound, and saw a tall figure sitting down with Liu Erlang, and at the same time he put down the **** and basket on his back.

  Yujiro has some sewage on his body and is thanking him.

  Chu Yan's body was also a little dirty. He didn't talk as much as Liu Erlang, he just gave a faint "um".

  Chu Yan looked towards Liu Sanniang.

  Liu Sanniang felt her legs were weak, mother, she was really afraid.

  I don't know why, but I'm afraid that when she met Chu Yan's bottomless eyes, Liu Sanniang felt like she thought of a sheep that was terrified.

   As for Chu Yan, he is a tiger and wolf who is staring at his prey.

   She was afraid that he would skin and swallow her.

   "Sanniang, go and get the medicinal wine to rub your brother."

   Liu Erlang cried when he saw Liu Sanniang.

   Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Erlang with a worried look, she turned her head and entered the kitchen.

   Wei asked her, "What's the matter, what is Erlang calling outside?"

  Liu Sanniang took out the medicine jar under the cupboard: "Second brother fell into the ditch when he came back and twisted his foot."
