Osmanthus thought for a while and said, "I think Ju'er's wife is right. It's not just that the family was poor when they were young, but there are other reasons why they can't get a wife at such an old age. It's just like picking melons."

It seems that the slightly better ones have been picked out, and the rest that cannot be sold are all crooked melons and cracked jujubes, or old crooked melons and cracked jujubes. If Ju'er mother-in-law picks a man like that to marry, wouldn't she

I found a master to serve me."

Mrs. Liu said, "It's more than just looking for a master. It's like finding a father for yourself. You want to provide for him until the end of his life."

"Then find a young man." Da Sun joked with a smile.

Mrs. Liu raised her hand and patted her face, "Look at my face, do you think it's possible?"

Dayun joked, "It's not impossible. If you expand your business and put the money you earn in baskets, you'll still be afraid that you won't be able to marry a young man."

Ms. Liu curled her lips and her eyes were full of disgust, "Come on, I can't waste the spare money I have. I look down on those kind of pretty boys who eat soft rice."

Everyone laughs, and women chat together, sometimes without any taboos.

Especially women from farmers' families are not as particular as noble women from powerful families, and they don't have much dignity. It is most comfortable for a few old sisters to chat happily together.

After some teasing, Mrs. Sun picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. "Speaking of which, fourth brother and sister, you'd better think about the fourth child. The husband and wife were partners when they were young. Other men can't protect the fourth child from his problems."

, but no matter how many children the fourth child has with you, the affection is there, and the feelings for the children are the same, so you should think about it again."

Seeing what Sun said, Guihua and the others also changed their tune and agreed.

The eldest Sun also took Yang Huaming out and praised him, "I think the fourth child is pretty good. He works honestly at home and supports the family. I have never heard any rumors about him."

Mrs. Liu said nothing and just sat there drinking tea from one bowl after another.

But Mrs. Sun knew that Mrs. Liu's behavior meant that her attitude was not as firm as before.

When Mrs. Liu heard this before, she refused without thinking. Now, she doesn't refuse, which means there is still a chance.

As for the fourth child, Sun's intuition is that he also wants to get back together.

"Fourth brother and sister, there are some things I didn't want to say originally, but now that it's important to talk about it, I'll say it." Mrs. Sun said again.

"Actually, a few days ago, the fourth child was trying to make innuendo with us, wanting to know if you would come back to the village to congratulate the fifth family."

"I can see that he also cares about you. You two, to put it bluntly, we are all on the same road. You both have a good reputation. You should go back and think about this matter carefully. If you insist, I will talk to the fourth child.

Qi'er, he is a man, let him criticize you and give you enough face, how about?"

Mrs. Liu grabbed Mrs. Sun's hand and said, "Third sister-in-law, I'm here for the wedding banquet. I'm here for the fifth room, not for Yang Laosi. I don't want to talk about this."

When Mrs. Sun saw Liu's reaction, she understood.

This is OK.

So Mrs. Sun patted Mrs. Liu's hand and said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now, but you have to promise me that if you come back rarely, you will stay at my house for the whole night."

"Suyun also said before that I must keep you no matter what. There is a banquet to be held at night."

Mrs. Liu shook her head as if something were wrong, "I appreciate your kindness, but I really have to go back. The Chinese New Year will be celebrated tomorrow."

"Go back, where are you going? He'er and Kang Xiaozi have both returned to Changping Village to celebrate the New Year. You're not going to Ju'er's house to celebrate the New Year. Maybe you want to spend the New Year alone, so why don't you stay and celebrate the New Year with us?" Mrs. Sun

Stay again.

Ms. Liu shook her head again and stood up to find Ju'er.

After the banquet earlier, Ju'er went to the wedding room to talk to Jiang Guiling. Because the eldest son of Ju'er's family had recently had his teeth replaced, Ju'er wanted the bride to touch his gums, saying that the bride had touched his gums.

Your teeth will grow more neatly.

As a result, as soon as I arrived in the yard, I met the three girls who were coming towards me.

"Third girl, why are you alone and your second sister?" Madam Liu asked.

The third girl smiled and said, "Mom, I just came here to talk to you about this matter. My second sister and second brother-in-law returned to town with their two children."

"Why did you go back to town? Why didn't that damn girl call me when she came back to town? What if you leave me here?" Ms. Liu asked, slapping her thighs with both hands, and was about to run out of the yard to chase Ju'er and Chen.

Biao's carriage was caught by Sun who was chasing him.

Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "Don't scold Ju'er. I ordered them to leave first. You, please stay here honestly. Our sisters-in-law haven't chatted together for a long time. During this period in the village,

There is a lot of gossip today, and you don’t want to hear it.”

Beside, the other women who followed also smiled and said, "Yes, it's enough for three days and three nights. If you don't want to hear it, we still want to hear it."

Mr. Liu was in trouble, "Then where should I sleep at night? I won't sleep in the fourth room."

Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't have enough room for you to sleep in the row of guest rooms here."

While the women were persuading, Bao Suyun also came over.

Throughout the whole day, she was greeted and sent to and fro, and her steps were like a top that never stopped.

Now that he finally had a moment of leisure, and there was still a few hours left before cooking dinner at night, Bao Suyun hurriedly slipped over to Sun's place.

"Sister-in-law, you are here just in time. I was rushing over to say hello. Don't leave tonight. Come to my house for dinner. We are all members of the family, so feel free." Bao Suyun said.

Sun said, "I have already stayed. We will go there at night."

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu could only say helplessly, "That's it, you all agreed upon it."

Everyone laughs.

The three girls smiled with their eyebrows crescent, the most cheerful.

When Mrs. Liu was dragged back to the main room by Mrs. Sun and others to continue drinking tea and talking, the three girls stood in the yard for a moment, looking up at the setting sun above their heads, and saw one or two jackdaws flying by.

Her eye sockets suddenly felt hot and tears fell down.

I don’t know how many times I have seen this kind of scene before. Every time I see it, I feel sad and feel like I am that homeless jackdaw.

Regardless of whether you live in an old house or in a small courtyard at the entrance of the village, everything is empty. When you open the door in the evening, you will find it dark and lifeless.

She understood why.

This evening, with the same scenery, she felt that her heart was filled to the brim.

Because my mother is back.

Just like before, among the women gossiping in a room, one of them was his own mother.

With your mother sitting there and gossiping, as a child, you feel confident wherever you go, because your mother is there and your father is too.
