The next morning, Mrs. Qin got up late.
There is not much work at home during this period, and there is no hard and fast rule to get up early. After all, He Jiuniang hasn’t come out yet.
When Mrs. Qin came out, Lianhua was cleaning the yard, and the three reading people were holding books by the window in the house and reading hard, asking each other questions, and the others were nowhere to be seen.
“Good morning, sister-in-law!”
Lotus greeted her with a smile.
Mrs. Qin responded and asked: "Lianhua, where are your grandma and the others?"
"Grandma is going to the village chief's house to deliver some things, and grandpa is going with a few uncles. The greenhouse has been cleaned, the aunt and Aunt Guilan have gone to the river to wash clothes, and the sisters are still sleeping."
As Lianhua spoke, the movements of her hands did not stop, and she was very active in her work. serious.
Mrs. Qin saw that no one happened to be around at the moment, so she took Lianhua to sit aside and said, "My sister-in-law has something to tell you."
Mrs. Qin was rarely so serious. Talking to herself, Lianhua thought it was a big deal and nodded to show that she was listening.
"You will be fourteen years old after the Chinese New Year. When it is time to say goodbye, you and I will be the only two people left in the Qin family. Your sister-in-law will make the decision for you. Now our family conditions Well, my aunt will definitely find you a good husband who has a good family background and is considerate."
Lianhua never expected that she would say this to herself, and she blushed instantly. She said uncomfortably: "Sister-in-law, I'm still young and I don't want to get married!"
"You kid, you and my sister-in-law have nothing to be ashamed of. Girls will get married when they grow up. Don’t be afraid, this is your natal family, and your uncle said last night that he treats you as his own daughter!”
Ms. Qin felt that Lianhua was too shy as a little girl. I was embarrassed to discuss such a convenient topic, so I said these words to comfort her.
But I only guessed it right. Lianhua is indeed shy, but more importantly, she really doesn’t want to get married.
"Sister-in-law, my family's business has just started. I like doing business and I want to learn more skills."
She looked at Ms. Qin seriously and refused. Very obvious.
In this era, not all families are as open-minded as the Lu family and are willing to let their women go out and show their faces. Lianhua feels that if she does not meet such a family, she will definitely stay at home with her husband after getting married. It’s hard to raise a child even when he’s out of the house.
She felt that she didn’t want to live that kind of life.
She wanted to be like Aunt Jiuniang, have a skill, support herself by herself, and then do whatever she likes.
When she talked about this, Mrs. Qin remembered that Lotus now occupies a major position in the Lu family's business. If her husband's family does not allow her to do business, who will be responsible for the Lu family's business?
Mrs. Qin certainly hopes that her niece will become better and better. With the example of He Jiuniang, she deeply feels that all the children in the family must have some abilities, but she does not want them to be delayed because of these things. The important matter of marriage was entangled for a while.
Lianhua thought she would let her go after saying this, but Qin was entangled for a while, so she simply stopped being entangled and changed the subject: "I see that Lu Xiaoyang is always around you lately. , obviously he has a crush on you, remember to keep your distance, Lu Xiaoyang has an unstable temper, and he might change at some point. You can like anyone, but you can’t like him."
Mrs. Qin was prejudiced against Lu Xiaoyang. She used to think that he was uneducated and a little gangster in her hometown. Later, she did something like that while escaping from the desert, which caused trouble for her clan members. She could accept giving Lu Xiaoyang a job at home, but She would never accept marrying her only niece.
She hoped that Lianhua could find an honest person and live a steady life.
Lianhua was stunned, staring at Mrs. Qin with wide eyes in disbelief, and said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Brother Xiaoyang and I have nothing!"
She said it very seriously. If Qin hadn't suddenly mentioned it, she wouldn't have thought much about it.
"There is no best. I just want to remind you that you are all young and often get together and have more contact with each other. I am afraid that you will be deceived."
< br /> Ms. Qin patted her hand and sighed. Lianhua was good-looking, and she was often asked if she had kissed her when setting up a stall on the street. She was worried that Lianhua and Lu Xiaoyang would be in love for a long time.
Lianhua really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She really didn’t think about that. She and Lu Xiaoyang only cooperated well at work and had no friendship in private.
When Lu Xiaoyang asked him why he was so good at arithmetic before, she couldn't give a reason, so she left it alone. During this time, if she didn't understand something, she would ask He Jiuniang directly.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry!"
Lotus patted her chest in assurance. The strong Qin was worried that she would damage her, so she hurriedly said: " Okay, okay, I believe you."
Just as he said that, He Jiuniang came out, stretched out to greet Qin and Lianhua, and then asked: "What are we talking about?"
Mrs. Qin did not treat He Jiuniang as an outsider and said: "It's not that she thinks Lianhua is almost old and wants to marry her. She said she doesn't want to get married, but only wants to do business."
Lianhua Unexpectedly, the topic came around againCome on, my little face turned red again.
He Jiuniang was a little confused and asked puzzledly: "Is there any conflict between getting married and doing business?"
Mrs. Qin knew that He Jiuniang didn't know that some people had old-fashioned ideas, so she Explain to her: "Not all families are as open-minded as our parents. Many families are unwilling to let their girls go out and show themselves in public, saying that it is immoral."
"Ha~" He Jiuniang couldn't help laughing. He said, "Why would you marry someone like that? If Lianhua is so good, why should she find a good family? Not everyone is as enlightened as their parents, but it's not impossible. Just look for her slowly." No matter what, you can't wrong Lianhua."
When He Jiuniang said these words, it seemed casual, but every word was on the minds of the two of them, yes, why should Lianhua be wronged?
But Ms. Qin is still a little worried: "But it's hard to find such a family. I'm worried that Lianhua will be older in a few years."
"It's too old. What's wrong? Second sister-in-law, let me tell you, I only learned this after I studied medicine. It is best for women to wait until they are seventeen or eighteen years old before getting married and having children. Otherwise, like ours, they would be too young to harm their health in the future. I get sick more often when I get older."
She said it with certainty, which frightened Mrs. Qin for a moment.
"Three younger brothers and sisters, are you really fake? Aren't these seventeen or eighty-year-old old girls?"
Ms. Qin swallowed hard, feeling that she was being hurt The impact.
In this era, normal girls can get married when they are thirteen or fourteen years old, get married when they are fifteen, and become mothers of one or two children when they are seventeen or eighteen.
It’s true that there are still some people who haven’t gotten married by the age of seventeen or eighteen, but most of them have some unspeakable secrets or their parents’ families are difficult to get along with, and in the end they can’t find any good family.
"Of course it's true. I only learned about it after studying medicine. We didn't understand this at that time. Now that we understand, we naturally can't wrong the children at home. Second sister-in-law, you said it is Isn’t that true?”
As He Jiuniang spoke, she quietly looked at Lianhua, who nodded crazily in agreement.
She loves Aunt Jiuniang so much, Aunt Jiuniang really understands her!
Regardless of whether she can get married in the future, at least she doesn’t want to get married now. Besides, at the rate she is saving money, she can fully support herself, so why go to her husband’s house and suffer?
