After farming, I opened a family tree

Chapter 113 Delivering Water

Qingshan Town, Inn.

The few of them knew each other, so they all stayed in the same inn.

"I'm not saying, are you really going there tomorrow?"

"Well, the words have already been spoken. Although I am not a good person, I will not go back on my word with a woman."

A man who breaks his promise is not a gentleman.

Although they were lazy and unmotivated, they had received aristocratic education since childhood.

Not learning well doesn’t mean you haven’t learned it.

"Since my father asked me to come to Jiangnan, I don't know what he would say to me if I go back like this."

"That's right. When my eldest brother looked at me when he left, I felt like he was laughing at me."

......

A few people discussed for a while in the inn and decided that if they were to leave, they should at least wait until the road around Shenjia Village was completed.

The next morning, when Liu opened the door, she saw the young men who had come to eat yesterday were already waiting outside.

They were carrying a lot of things in their hands, and when they saw Liu, they all had warm smiles on their faces.

"Auntie, I'm sorry for disturbing you yesterday. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."

"Yes, yes, auntie, thank you for your hard work yesterday."

Don't hit a smiling person, let alone these handsome young boys who are so kind.

So when Shen Tang got up, he saw Zhu Yi and others surrounding Liu, calling her "Auntie" affectionately.

Everyone saluted when they saw Shen Tang.

Shen Tang heard the happy Liu say:

"Okay, okay, you guys will have dinner at my house. Just tell me what you like to eat and I'll make it for you."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work, Auntie. The spareribs you made yesterday were so delicious!"

“That fish is fresh too!”

......

Seeing Liu's smiling face being coaxed by this group of young men, Shen Tang sighed in his heart.

As expected, no matter what time it is, children with sweet words are popular.

I have been busy making plans recently and have neglected Liu and Shen Dashan a little.

It's rare to have such a lively time at home, so let's make mom happy.

So, this group of people left after a few days.

After breakfast, Shen Tang took the siblings to school.

Zhu Yi and others already knew the way yesterday, so they went there on their own today.

What was different from yesterday was that there were many people gathered on the roadside today, mostly women and some young girls.

As soon as they arrived yesterday, the surrounding villagers knew that a few handsome young men with extraordinary clothes had come.

Naturally, many families also had this idea.

Some families are self-aware, but some families have their own plans.

"Mom, do you think those gentlemen would really like me?"

Li Cuicui is the granddaughter of the elder of the Lijia Village clan. She is one of the more beautiful girls in Lijia Village.

The Li family, the eldest family of the big clan, was a fairly respectable family in Lijia Village. They owned a lot of land, and Li Cuicui's father was the shopkeeper in a shop in Qingshan Town.

Li Cuicui's brother also learned carpentry from an old carpenter, and she was the only girl in the family.

She had reached the marriageable age two years ago, but the elder Li looked down on the families around who came to propose marriage and was determined to marry his granddaughter into a wealthy family.

But the wealthy families in the town were unwilling to marry into the Li family, and after all this, Li Cuicui was already eighteen years old this year.

In later times, she would have just reached adulthood, but in the Great Qi Dynasty, she was already considered an old girl.

Li Cuicui has been indoctrinated with the Li family's idea of ​​despising the poor and loving the rich for many years, and she also dreams of becoming a lady.

Therefore, when the Li family heard that a few noble young men were coming to the roadside yesterday, they became interested.

Today, Li Cuicui specially changed into a new pink dress and carried a small bamboo basket to deliver water to her brothers who were working on the road.

Who would have thought that when she arrived, the roadside was already crowded with people.

Li Cuicui also saw many girls who were dressed neatly and appropriately like her.

Can a group of pheasants turn into phoenixes by changing their feathers?

Li Cuicui felt disdainful.

"Big brother, second brother, Cuicui is here to bring you some water~"

Li Cuicui twisted her waist, pinched her throat, and moved to the front of the crowd.

When the girls saw this, their expressions changed instantly.

The girls who came to the roadside today all had some thoughts in their minds. When they saw Li Cuicui's expression, they instantly knew what she was thinking.

This is a powerful enemy!

"Hey, isn't this Sister Cuicui? Why are you out today? Aren't you usually willing to go out?"

Everyone knows Li Cuicui. She doesn’t even want to wash a few pieces of clothes on weekdays.

Before, when a young man from another village looked at Li Cuicui a few more times, Li Cuicui's mother mercilessly said that the young man was a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

Li Cuicui also looked down on the other girls around her, thinking that they had a country-like air.

Not only did the Li family not think that Li Cuicui did anything wrong, they also believed that Li Cuicui was born to be a wife.

When the two older brothers of the Li family saw Li Cuicui coming, they looked at each other.

"Hey, Cuicui, why are you here? It's so dusty here, go home quickly."

Li Da deliberately raised his voice and spoke towards Zhu Yi and others.

"Brother, it's okay. You guys worked hard on this journey. I'm just delivering water. It's not hard at all."

Li Cuicui spoke gently with a smile on her face.

"Hey, little sister, you are so virtuous. Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed."

Li Er immediately responded, glancing back and forth from the corner of his eyes.

"Hey, second brother, what are you talking about! There are so many people here, it's so embarrassing."

Li Cuicui covered her face with a handkerchief, looking shy.

Li Da looked at Li Cuicui and curled the corners of his mouth.

Then he poured two more bowls of water and brought them to Zhu Yi and others.

"Gentlemen, you've worked hard. Have some water first. My little sister brought this to me. She felt sorry for me and her second brother, so she added sugar to the water."

Li Da said this very complacently.

After all, the price of sugar is not low, and ordinary people can only eat sugar a few times a year.

If a family treats someone with sweet soup, then this guest must be an honored guest.

Zhu Yi frowned as he looked at the two bowls of water that Li brought over with a big laugh.

It’s not that he dislikes the water, but it’s just a little too sweet.

You're working so hard that your mouth is dry, and you're drinking sugar water. Don't you feel your throat is burning?

A few of them looked at the young girl standing on the side of the road twisting her handkerchief. They were also frequent visitors to brothels, so how could they not see through this simple trick?

"Thank you for your kindness, big brother. We are not thirsty. Why don't you ask other people around for the sugar water?"

Although Marquis Anle has no real power, he is still a marquis after all.

Therefore, others also expressed their unanimous agreement with Zhu Yi's words.

Li Da held the two bowls of water in his hands and felt the eyes of the people around him gradually turning towards him, which made him feel extremely embarrassed.

I couldn't help but secretly curse these young men for their lack of tact.

"Brother Li, why don't you give me some water? I'm thirsty."

Two young men around Li Da spoke up.

Seeing this, Li Da could only pass the two bowls of water to the other people around him.

Li Cuicui saw her elder brother talking to the tallest young man on the side of the road, and the other party actually looked at her.

He looked at me, and just as he was beginning to feel excited, he saw his elder brother giving the water to someone else.

For a moment, his face felt a little embarrassed, and he noticed the looks people around him were giving him.

Li Cuicui didn't even pick up the basket, she just turned around and ran away.
