Chapter 20 Looking for someone like me
Zhang Tieniu went out on errands in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. This trip lasted almost a month. If he had saved up a lot of money, he wanted to give it all to Li Qingyou.
"I'm going to Nanzhou Prefecture this time. It's much warmer there than here, the clothes the people wear are nicer, and the food there is better than here..." Zhang Tieniu couldn't hold back his chatter, talking about the things that happened along the way.
knowledge.
Seeing that he was in a lively conversation, Li Qingyou couldn't interrupt him, let alone drive him away, so he could only laugh and listen.
She didn't expect what happened to her brother, mainly because it was not time to eat at this time of the day. This child was so sensible that it made people feel bad. He would never take a step out of the house unless he went to the latrine.
Li Qingyou didn't chase the guests away, and Zhang Tieniu didn't want to leave even more. He wished he could stay here all day. A person who was usually not good at talking would talk endlessly.
Until his mother came to find him.
Iron Niu Niu Niu Niu prepared a meal and went out to look for her son. When she heard that he had come to the Li family, she was very angry.
Her son is a first-class talent and the only one in the family. She cannot let the Li family's daughter bring trouble to him, so he is standing at the door of the Li family with a nose that is neither nose nor face.
"Tieniu, what's the matter with you? You've already cooked all the food at home and you're still wandering around outside. Miss Li lives in a girl's house. Why are you, a young man, just trying to get in front of someone?" Tieniu Niu scolded her son, looking at her.
The knife flew towards Li Qingyou.
This restless nemesis must have seduced her son, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come and even help her carry water. He was never so diligent at home.
How could Li Qingyou not hear that Tieniu Niu was criticizing Sang and Huai, but she was Zhang Tieniu's mother after all, so it was hard for her to say anything.
Zhang Tieniu was not that thoughtful and did not hear the deep meaning in his mother's words. He only thought that his mother was worried about ruining Li Qingyou's reputation. After all, she was the only one in her family now.
"Then I'll go back first. If you need anything, come to me anytime." Zhang Tieniu felt happy, thinking about going back later to bring her the silk flowers he brought this time in Nanzhou Mansion.
He bought it specially for her. At that time, he saw that the girls on the street were wearing it, and thought that Qingyou would look better wearing it than them all.
Li Qingyou sent Zhang Tieniu out of the door again. When he saw Tieniu Niu with a bad expression at the door, he smiled at her and said, "Auntie is here."
Iron Niu Niu didn't want to give her any good looks, so she said angrily: "Miss Li, you have to take what my aunt told you last time to your heart and help her keep an eye on her, otherwise she will point at you."
She was referring to the last time she asked Li Qingyou to introduce a well-qualified little sister to Zhang Tieniu as his wife.
This is just an excuse. Li Qingyou also knows the little sister Tie Niu Niu Niang, so why does she need to introduce her?
Everyone knew it well and was just warning Li Qingyou to stay away from her son.
"Don't worry, Auntie, I know." Li Qingyou answered without any hesitation. Tienniu Niu's face looked better now, and she was busy urging her son to go home quickly.
Seeing her son turning around with reluctance every step of the way, Iron Cowgirl almost lost her temper, and became even more determined to decide on her son's marriage immediately...
Li Qingyou closed the door, thinking about the wolf-proof look on Iron Cowgirl's face, and felt funny in her heart. Then she raised her eyes and saw a figure rushing out of the room, startling her.
When he returned to the house, Adi had also solved his three urgent needs in life and came back feeling relaxed.
Seeing Li Qingyou's busy figure, Adi also took the initiative to come over, and while helping, he asked tentatively: "Sister, do you plan to marry the person just now?"
He was referring to Zhang Tieniu.
Li Qingyou made a move. This was indeed his plan before, but now...
It's probably unlikely.
"Why do you ask that?" Li Qingyou poured the flour into the basin, thinking that the little guy was worried that he would have nowhere to go if she got married, so she deliberately teased him, "You don't like that brother?"
This was originally a joke, but Adi nodded seriously.
You really don’t like it?
Li Qingyou looked at him in surprise, "Why?"
He didn't even meet Zhang Tieniu, how could he not like him?
"His mother doesn't like Sister Qingyou, so she won't have a good life with him. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult." Adi said seriously.
There were many aunts in the house, but there was no one his grandmother could like. Even his stepmother was frightened when she saw her.
Li Qingyou was stunned, but he didn't expect that such a young child would know this. He couldn't help but laugh, and tapped the tip of his nose with a hand dipped in flour, "Ghost Elf, you know quite a lot."
"Really, sister must not marry that man." Adi said seriously: "That man will listen to his mother's words at first glance. Such a man is not reliable."
Li Qingyou laughed out loud, especially when she saw the serious look on her brother's face, she laughed even more.
Adi's face turned red when he was laughed at, but his face was full of persistence.
"Then what kind of person should my sister look for in the future?" Li Qingyou deliberately teased him. With her current reputation, she probably wouldn't be able to get married, at least in Qingshan County, she wouldn't want to get married.
Without even thinking about it, Adi patted his small chest and said, "Find someone like Adi."
Sister Qingyou is so kind and beautiful, she deserves the best man in the world, well, just like him.
Li Qingyou laughed so hard that she almost burst into tears, "You still have to get married, what's the use of me looking for you?"
Adi, "..."
I forgot again that he was a girl.
Li Qingyou prepared the food for the animals and took out the hot sticky bean buns from the pot. She said that the delicious ones would be made in the afternoon, so it was too late.
Adi looked at the fat and white sticky bean buns. It looked very appetizing, but he really didn't want to eat a bite.
As the old saying goes, don't use too much delicious food, not to mention that the food in front of you is far from delicious, especially the greasy meat oil on top. You must drink more hot tea after eating it, otherwise it will be more uncomfortable.
And his eating habits used to be on the light side, so you can imagine how painful it was to eat these all day long.
Li Qingyou also saw it. In fact, it was not only Adi who didn't want to eat it, but she was about to vomit after eating it. But after all, it was made of grain, so she couldn't throw it away, right?
"Let's just have a meal first. There will be delicious food in the afternoon." Li Qingyou coaxed the little guy who obviously didn't want to eat but was trying not to show it. He remembered that today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and there are lanterns on the street.
This is a lantern held once a year. Every year at this time, the young girls and young wives on the street come out to play at night. They can guess lantern riddles and look at the lanterns. If you like them, buy them.
Fortunately for girls from poor families, they always have time to go out. For girls from wealthy families, this is the only time of the year when they can go out to play at night. You can imagine how lively it is.
I heard that Qingshan County is not that good, and Fucheng is more lively.
