Fight the Giants

  Chapter 459 Enthusiasm

  Yang has never felt such enthusiasm.

  After she got off the boat, the younger generation of the Huo family was waiting there. Huo Xuan brought Huo Cang, as well as Huo Zhe and Huo Tong from the first room, and Huo Qing from the fourth room, several juniors were there early to pick them up.

  An'an got off the boat and was hugged in his arms before he could take even two steps. With so many cousins, he couldn't remember who was who, so he looked at each of them curiously.

  He didn't hug An An, so he snatched the gift from Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi, and held it in his hand.

   "Why did you come so far to pick him up?" Huo Erhuai was flattered. He went back to Huojiaba, not to mention walking so far to pick him up, no one at the entrance of the village had waited for him.

   "Grandpa ordered us to pick up the second uncle's family." Huo Xuan replied. Even if grandpa didn't order, he would bring his younger siblings to pick him up.

  Since becoming a clerk in Guangfengshui, Huo Xuan has changed from the inside out. He is no longer the farm boy who just keeps his head busy in the fields. People who saw him said that he had changed a lot, that he looked like a man who could handle things.

  He knew why such a change came about.

  Last year, Huo Xi saw that he was doing well and that he was very familiar with crops, so she ordered Shen Qianzhong to arrange for him to go to the countryside to collect grain and go north with the boat. Bargaining with the villagers to buy grain, and dealing with various grain merchants all the way north, Huo Xuan's whole temperament has changed.

  With gratitude in his heart, he came to Hekou early to wait for Huo Erhuai's family.

   "Cousin didn't come?"

   "She grew up and didn't let her go out."

  Huo Xuan hummed, the cousin was afraid that she would say kiss, and her uncle and aunt did not let her go out.

Mrs. Yang walked all the way to the entrance of the village, feeling very surprised. This year, not only her father-in-law sent the juniors of the family to pick them up, but there were also many villagers at the entrance of the village watching his family's fun. A family say hello.

   She couldn't even go her own way. How come after a year, my family is so popular?

"Last year, the second uncle collected the mottled bamboos from the natives in the village, which attracted everyone to plant the mottled bamboos. The mottled bamboos would not grow so fast in a while, so the second uncle collected the food and native products of many people in the village, such as baskets of bamboo, and so on. Helping the sale has brought a lot of income to the villagers, all thanks to Uncle Er."

  Mr. Yang took a look at Huo Erhuai, saw him straightening his back, couldn't help laughing, but felt a little sad.

  As a married man, the boy's father has never raised his head in his own village. Even if he is living a better life now, he is very cautious when he returns to the village, for fear that others will chew his tongue behind his back.

  Now everyone in the village is grateful for his kindness, and he is not so resistant to going back to Huojiaba now.

  When they arrived at Huo's house, Huo Da was pressing them down, and everyone expressed their great welcome to Huo Erhuai's family.

  Seeing that Huo Xi didn't come, Fang curled her lips: "Our house is simple, I'm afraid it's expensive feet that won't set foot on cheap land." He muttered.

  Huo Erhuai was a little embarrassed, and explained: "Xi'er is old enough to discuss marriage, so I didn't let her go out."

  Fang's eyes lit up: "Your uncle's family has a few suitable ones, and the fat water will not flow into the fields of outsiders. Telling her to go back to your uncle's house is just a good way to kiss her."

  The more I talk, the more reasonable I feel. This second son, I am afraid that he has accumulated a lot of family wealth over the years. His daughter is raised like a lady from a wealthy family, and there is nothing wrong with her looks and temperament.

  It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to do farm work, Erhuai will be asked to pay more for marriage, buy more acres of land, and rent out, and she won’t have to go to the land.

  As soon as she slapped her thigh, someone had to ask her natal brother to come to discuss matters at home.

   Yang looked anxious, and looked at Huo Erhuai. Huo Erhuai didn't need Yang's reminder, he himself didn't like those people from his maternal ancestor's family.

   directly rejected: "Xi'er is not suitable for them."

"Why is it inappropriate? I know that you raised her in the city and made her look like that. You want to marry Gao, mother understands. But marry Gao, what can she rely on in your family? In the future, her dowry will be spent. , being disliked by others, you dare not come to ask for an explanation."

Feeling that what he said made sense, he persuaded: "It's better to marry at a low price. People don't dare to bully her because of her dowry. Besides, there are so many people in our family, and there are many uncles and cousins. If someone bullies her , let's go straight to the door..."

   "Mother." Huo Erhuai interrupted her, only feeling that the more she spoke, the more outrageous she became. "My mother and I have our own ideas about Xi'er's marriage."

   "What's your idea!"

  Fang stared at him: "I'm your mother, you don't pay attention to what I said now?"

   "The New Year's Eve, what is this for? Erhuai said that they have an idea, so they let them handle the children's marriage by themselves, and you want to intervene." Huo Da stopped her.

   "I'm her grandma, why can't I interfere? I can't even say a word? Do you also look down on my natal family?"

  Seeing that the two elders were about to quarrel, everyone rushed to persuade them.

  Mr. Yang has a headache. I knew that she would not come, just like Xi'er.

  Huo Daqin glared at Huo Erhuai. Before the people arrived, his father sent a family of boys out of the village to meet them, just like a nobleman coming to the door.

   And since yesterday, he has been nagging about how many dishes to prepare and how many chickens and ducks to kill. The whole family is waiting for his family to come to the door.

   This visit made my parents unhappy again.

  Huo Daqin felt that his authority as the eldest son was greatly threatened.

Frowning: "Mother is also for the good of your daughter. Marry someone who knows everything. If you have something to do, you can walk two steps away. Parents and brothers can watch at hand. Isn't this a good day? If you can't live in poverty, you should marry more money. Acres of fields, the fields are rented out to others to plant, and she collects the rent comfortably at home without doing anything, being supported by the whole family, isn't it better than a high marriage to see people's faces?"

  Huo Daqin vaguely overheard acquaintance fishermen discussing that Yang's oil bottle brother had spent thousands of taels of silver on a wedding! I heard that the gift money given by the people who came to the wedding banquet was in the hundreds of taels or tens of taels, and the gift money alone was probably a lot.

   His second brother is so rich?

   What his mother said, the fat and water don’t flow into the fields of outsiders, not only the uncle’s family has suitable ages, but Mao’s natal family also has suitable ones, right? I'll ask my mother in a while.

Huo Da saw that the second son's face was uneasy, and in order to avoid their brothers fighting, he quickly suppressed it. It happened that Huo Wuniang's family also entered the door, and they didn't want to lose face to the son-in-law's house. Lele. Don't talk about Huo Xi anymore.

   And Huo Xi wasn't the only one who came to her door in the second year of junior high and was said to be a kiss. Mu Yan was also interrogated in turn at Cheng's natal family.

  Ke’s wife has been talking about it for several years. Now he is almost twenty years old, and he has several cousins ​​and children of the same age, but he is still alone.

  The Cheng family felt pity for this ill-fated grandson. He also said that if he didn't like Cheng's cousin, he would find a suitable one for him among relatives.

  Mu Yan sat with her patiently, but finally refused, saying that she had someone she liked, and prevaricated.
