Chapter 655 Brotherhood
After watching the two adults and two children for about two moments, they turned back, silently holding Niao Nao's hand and jumping in front, Xu Yan walked in the middle carrying a cage with a little white rabbit, and Sambo fell at the end.
"Mom, the little rabbit is so cute!" Mo Mo happily jumped towards Qin Xiaoxiao as soon as he walked in. Every little expression expressed his love for the little rabbit: "I fed them vegetable leaves, and they were very happy!"
Nao Nao, who was one step behind, unkindly said: "You feed too much, and the little rabbit is going to die."
Momo pursed her lips and retorted: "No, they have a big appetite and eat a lot!"
Nao Nao continued to confront him: "The little rabbits don't even want to eat them, it's you who forces them to eat them."
Momo said anxiously: "No, I don't, they like to eat it!"
"You have."
"No!"
"You have it."
"No!"
"..."
The two brothers started quarreling after saying something to each other.
Momo became a little more impatient, feeling that he had been slandered by his younger brother. His face turned red from anxiety and he was about to cry.
Qin Xiaoxiao was so annoyed by their quarrel that she quickly tried to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, stop arguing. Aren't you thirsty after being outside in the sun for so long? Come and drink some water to moisten your skin."
Momo's little body twitched, she glared at her brother fiercely, and looked at her eagerly: "Mom, feed me."
Qin Xiaoxiao followed his wishes, picked up the tea cup and fed him a drink.
After feeding halfway, Nao Nao joined in, and the two brothers drank the same glass of water, neither one disliking the other.
The grandparents and grandsons of the Xu family were very happy to see the twins. They thought the twins were quite interesting. They were quarreling just a moment ago, but they made up after sharing a glass of water.
Seeing sweat on their foreheads, Qin Xiaoxiao took out a handkerchief and wiped it. Seeing that the hands of the two maids who followed him were empty, he couldn't help but ask the eldest son: "Don't you have money? Why didn't you buy a little rabbit?"
Momo glanced at Nao Nao and said aggrievedly: "My brother won't let me buy it."
Qin Xiaoxiao wondered: "When did you listen to your brother so much?" After that, she looked at her younger son and asked, "Why don't you let your brother buy it? He shouldn't ask you for money to buy it, right?"
Nao Nao climbed up to the chair and sat down. He glanced at his brother and said, "The little rabbit will cry when he dies. It's annoying."
Qin Xiaoxiao was stunned. Where did he start talking about this? Little rabbits are easy to feed, right?
Nao Nao stopped talking and picked up a piece of snack and started to chew it slowly.
Silently muttering: "The little rabbit will turn into a big rabbit and won't die. You are the most annoying!"
He is still young and has not experienced death yet. He only knows from the words of adults that even if he dies, he will never see him again.
He wanted to buy a bunny just now, but Nao Nao stopped him from buying it, and even said that the rabbit would die. For some reason, the thought of the bunny dying made him feel very uncomfortable, and he failed to buy it in the end.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't know the riddle between the two brothers, and after asking for a while, he couldn't find out the reason. He had to pick up a piece of snacks and stuffed the big boy's mouth to stop him from mumbling incessantly.
However, she unexpectedly asked that the two little rabbits Xu Yan brought back were bought by Sanbao and given to her.
Facing the meaningful gazes of Qin Xiaoxiao and Mrs. Xu, both of them were too shy to raise their heads. It was obvious that they did not reject each other.
On the way back, Qin Xiaoxiao asked Sanbao about his intention to get married. He was happy but also felt sad for him, hoping that Xu Yan would be the one who could accompany him for three meals a day and know how he was doing.
Two days later, Mrs. Xu came to visit again and praised the three treasures inside and out. This was an indirect message to Qin Xiaoxiao that the Xu family was very satisfied with the three treasures and that the Qin family could send a matchmaker to propose marriage.
This result was expected by Qin Xiaoxiao. After sending Mrs. Xu away, she immediately asked Shitou to go to Qingshan Village to explain the situation to the elders in the family, especially the second wife.
If you have no objections to the marriage, then it’s time to choose a good day to propose marriage.
The Qin family was naturally very happy when they received this news. Ever since Sanbao's future was settled, they all dreamed of Sanbao getting married as soon as possible. But Sanbao had his own ideas. All they could do was remind him from the side, but they couldn't help him find a happy wife.
A desirable woman.
Now that the Xu family's prime minister has fallen in love with the Three Treasures, they are willing to marry their daughter to him. For the Qin family, this is nothing less than a gift from heaven and must not be missed.
However, this is only the idea of Mr. Qin and others, Zhao Caoer's mood is much more complicated. It is extremely honorable to marry an official lady as your daughter-in-law, but it also means that such a daughter-in-law is difficult to handle.
Thanks to Mr. Qin's previous beating of Zhao Cao'er, even if she was not very happy, she would not dare to interfere and cause harm at this time, otherwise Mr. Qin would not be the first to let her go.
Both Dabao and Dabao were happy for their younger brother, and had already discussed how to prepare for the third treasure's wedding and what kind of gifts to send. The two brothers' daughters-in-law, Chen Lili and Yan Yu, were obviously more concerned about Miss Xu's temperament.
The whole family gathered together to discuss for a long time, and finally decided to propose marriage to the Xu family in three days.
In the evening, Dabao returned to the room and saw his wife sitting on the bed and not sleeping peacefully. He asked with concern: "Is the child bothering you again?"
Chen Lili shook her head: "No, I am thinking about Sanbao's marriage. He is the only one in our family who has not married. We cannot help him arrange this marriage properly and beautifully."
Dabao smiled and said, "With your parents here, it's not your turn to worry about this matter. Just take care of yourself and your children."
Chen Lili glared at him and said, "How can I, the sister-in-law, not worry about the important matter of marriage? If I neglect something and cause dissatisfaction with my future siblings, wouldn't I be equally shameless?"
Dabao slowly came back to his senses, shook his head and laughed: "Don't worry, Sanbao is not a fool, and the girl who can make him nod is definitely not a difficult person. Besides, he can still pass it with a smile, and she nodded. It can be seen that Xu
My girl is nice."
Afraid of his wife's random thoughts, he continued: "Sambo is an official in the capital. In the future, he may go out like his third uncle. His wife is not allowed to follow him? Even though the Xu family girl is arrogant and willful, you and her don't see each other every day, so it's okay.
.”
He believed that his younger brother and sister's vision was the same, and his words were purely to comfort his wife, who had a changeable mind after becoming pregnant.
Chen Lili thought about her husband's words and found that it was indeed as he said. She didn't have much chance to deal with him at all, so she felt relieved: "Well, I was overly worried. With Sanbao's character,
It's impossible to marry a house-wanderer back."
Dabao nodded, suddenly remembering what he had just discussed with Erbao, and looked a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should say it at this time.
Seeing this, Chen Lili urged: "Whatever you want to say, just say it quickly. Is there anything else that cannot be said between husband and wife?"
Hearing this, Dabao stopped being pretentious: "The Hanlin Academy is a Qingshui yamen. The salary of Sanbao was not high when he first entered. Now he lives in his uncle's house. I can't continue to live there when he gets married. I want to buy a house with Erbao."
Giving him a house is a token of our gratitude."
It was said that it was a gift with Erbao, but in fact Erbao's enlightenment school did not come with money. If he really wanted to buy a house, he would definitely have to provide all the money. Moreover, the house should not be too small. It must have at least two entrances. Without three thousand taels of silver, it would be impossible to buy it.
arrive.
Chen Lili had settled the account clearly, and she was somewhat reluctant to give up. However, she was not short-sighted. She knew that it would be beneficial to her family to have a good relationship with her brother-in-law, who was an official, so she quickly put aside her reluctance and said with a smile: "Yes.
If you should buy it, we can afford it with this amount of money."
Dabao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her: "Daughter-in-law, you are so kind!"
Chen Lili deliberately made trouble: "Why, would it be bad if I objected?"
Dabao quickly distinguished: "That's not true. It's because my wife is so good that I dare to do this. If it were another man who would dare to try this!"
Chen Lili was amused by his words and patted him twice: "Okay, don't be poor, rest quickly, I have to get up early to work tomorrow."
Dabao kissed her happily, helped her down first, and then picked up the fan on the side to fan her: "You go to bed first, I will fan you if you are not tired."
Chen Lili didn't stop him and let him go.
On the other side, Erbao also told Yan Yu about buying a house for Sanbao.
Yan Yu was nibbling cucumbers, and nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "It should be right, third brother is so good to us, and he is getting married, of course we have to help!"
Erbao was very happy and began to make calculations: "My parents gave us five hundred taels of silver before and asked us to use it to buy fields. We haven't found the right silver yet and haven't spent it yet. Plus what we saved before, we can use it."
Out of six hundred taels."
At this point, his mood became depressed: "Six hundred taels of silver are definitely not enough. The rest can only be made up by the eldest brother and sister-in-law. We will return it to them when we have more money in the future."
When Yan Yu heard this, he suddenly felt that cucumbers were not delicious: "So we are so poor... No, we can't go on like this, we have to find a way to make money!"
Erbao said distressedly: "I also want to make money, but apart from teaching children to read and doing farm work in the fields, I can't do anything else."
Yan Yu put down the half-eaten cucumber and said dejectedly: "I don't even know how to do farm work. I only know how to wash and cook."
Her father is a scholar, and the family is relatively well-off, but they cannot afford servants. She is good at washing and cooking. After marrying Erbao, she also does these tasks, and she really does the work in the fields.
If he didn't come, the villagers would joke that the second wife of the Qin family married two charming ladies.
Chen Lili comes from a wealthy family, and she really doesn't want to touch the spring water.
Seeing that his wife was unhappy, Erbao comforted her clumsily: "It's okay, just use as much strength as you can. We are not lazy people. Our parents, elder brothers and sisters-in-law have never disliked her, so let's not dislike ourselves."
Yan Yu had a big heart and was comforted by these words: "Hmm, let's work hard from now on. I'll be nicer to my sister-in-law. When my nephew is born, I'll help her take care of the baby. This way we won't be wasting their money!"
