Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

The five siblings bought a carload of things and went home. Not only did Qu's mother look ugly, but Qu's father also turned blue.

They are used to being frugal, and when they have money, they save it. At most, they can buy some meat to satisfy their cravings. When Mother Qu opened her mouth to teach her a lesson, Father Qu grabbed her and asked the five of them to carry their things back with a serious face.

After sending the dog away, he asked, "Why did you buy so many things?"

"I thought the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so I bought the New Year's goods together." Qu Jingxi smiled and said, "Dad, let's see if there is anything missing, write it down and buy it in a few days."

"Go ahead, where did you get so much money?" Mother Qu frowned, hesitantly said: "Xiaobao, if you have a lot of money, why don't you save it for your father and mother, and use it when you marry a wife. You can't spend it so lavishly."

Qu Jingxi smiled shyly, squeezed her purse and said, "That's all that's left."

Qu's father and Qu's mother felt their hearts twitch when they looked at the purse with only a few copper coins, and then at the things in the yard.

Seeing that their faces had changed, Qu Jingxi hurriedly stepped forward to help them back to the house.

Qu Weizhen sneered, moved the things back to the old house with Zhaodi and the others, and then took out the big pig bones and chopped up the soup.

Zhaodi asked in a low voice, "Start making dinner now?"

"Steam the big bones longer, let's stew them slowly. Sister, you and the second sister take out the meat and cut it into strips, each weighing about one and a half catties, and then tie it on a rope and hang it under the eaves. From now on, we can take one strip and thaw it every day."

It's cold now, and the meat can be frozen solid by hanging it outside overnight.

The Qu family had never had so much meat, so neither Zhaodi nor Laidi knew how to handle it, and clumsily cut it according to Qu Weizhen's method.

Qu Weizhen boiled the big bones, took a look at the main room, and took Daidi out. Before going out, she wrapped some sugar brought back from the capital with dried lotus leaves.

Seeing Dai Di staring at her, she stuffed one into her mouth, and said with a low laugh, "Third Sister still has some, I'll give you two more when I come back tonight."

Dai Di's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in a low voice, "Third sister, you are really amazing!"

It's like there's always something delicious to eat.

Qu Weizhen pulled her out, and asked in a low voice: "There is a princess in our village who used to be a matchmaker. Is she still there?"

"Yes, Mrs. Wang, her home is at the end of the village."

"Take my sister to have a look. After a while, you can just play in her yard. The third sister has something to say to Wang Po, and we will go home after we finish talking."

Daidi agreed happily, and dragged Qu Weizhen to Wang Po's house.

Qu Weizhen was looking for Wang Po to entrust her to find a good marriage for Qu Zhaodi. Wang Po, who was holding the candy with a smile, couldn't help but froze. She rewrapped the candy and stuffed it into Qu Weizhen's hand, "Pandi, are you here to make fun of my wife?"

"Wang Po misunderstood, how could I make fun of you?"

"Then you still said that you want to marry your elder sister. Who doesn't know that your elder sister promised to the master Wang of Wangjiazhuang? It should be your second sister."

"The family in Wangjiazhuang is not suitable. Our family plans to retire, so I want to ask Po Wang to say a good one again," Qu Weizhen said with a smile: "Our requirements are not high, and the family has difficulties. Anyway, my family has few things. It's just that the in-laws need to be kind, the brothers need to be harmonious, and the sisters-in-law need to be kind. You know that my eldest sister has a first-class temper, quick hands and feet, and good looks..."

"Wait, wait," Wang Po interrupted her, looked at her suspiciously and said, "You can decide this matter?"

"Wang Po, don't worry, the marriage in Wang's Village will be withdrawn in a few days, but you have to pay attention from now on, it's best to finish the marriage within a month. We don't want much bride price, as long as it's similar to other people's family."

Wang Po's eyes gradually brightened. The marriage between the Qu family and the Wang family village was secured by the matchmaker at the Wang family village. She was not optimistic at the beginning, thinking that the Qu family was selling their daughter. How old is Mr. Wang, and he beat his daughter-in-law so hard?

Qu Weizhen saw that her heart was moved, and continued to insist: "Wang Po, don't worry, my brother and I still have some savings, and the matchmaker will not treat you badly."

Wang Po patted her thigh, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll take over this matchmaking match, just wait, there will be good news in a few days, I will definitely choose a good brother-in-law for you."

Only then did Qu Weizhen leave with a smile, and took Daidi home.

Wang Po's daughter-in-law came out of the house, looked at Qu Weizhen's back and said, "This girl is prettier than her two older sisters, and I don't know who she will fall into in the future."

"Eat and drink well, can't it look good?" Wang Po gave her the candy and said, "Put it away and give it to Shuanzi when he comes back. Give him one a day, don't give too much."

The daughter-in-law agreed and asked curiously: "Mother, why did you promise her to hire Di's matchmaker? Her mother is not easy to mess with, and there are really few families who can afford the bride price offered by her family."

It is normal for girls in the countryside to marry at the age of fourteen. For example, Zhaodi stayed until the age of sixteen, partly because of Qu Jingxi's request, and partly because Qu's mother wanted to keep her daughter to work for a few more years.

In the past few years, there have been marriage proposals with their family, but the bride price proposed by the Qu family is 8 taels, which is four times that of ordinary families. This is not something ordinary families can afford, so Zhaodi's marriage has been delayed.

"How good is the character of the one who can afford the dowry gift? The composer who can't afford it doesn't look down upon him. Isn't your effort wasted?"

"What do you know?" Wang Po glanced at her and said, "That was before Xiaobao came back, and now that he and Pandi have come back, whoever has the final say in the Qu family is not sure. Didn't you see that she said categorically just now, can the marriage in Wangjiazhuang be rescinded? If the Qu family is still in charge of Qu Lao San, then the marriage cannot be rescinded, if it is..."

Wang Po smiled meaningfully.

Her daughter-in-law suddenly realized that if she quit, the Qu family would naturally be the Qu Weizhen siblings.

Wang Po sighed: "That child Zhaodi is indeed pitiful. I feel pity for her. Fortunately, she has lost a good sister, and her brother is not unconscionable. Otherwise, with such parents, it would be better not to come to this life."

Wang Po's mouth has always been tight, knowing that the marriage between the Qu family and Wang's family is still in progress, so she dare not say anything, and only quietly looks for candidates for Zhao Di.

Qu's father and Qu's mother were worried all night, and they didn't care about the family sitting together for dinner. The next day when they came back to their senses, they found that they had used up more than a catty of pork and a piece of aunt in just one night, and they felt distressed immediately.

Mother Qu made steamed buns for Zhaodi's four sisters again, and if they wanted to eat them separately, they started a small stove with Qu Jing.

Qu Weizhen looked at it without saying a word, Qu Mu measured out the rice for them to cook, and she took advantage of people's attention to get into the kitchen to add rice and cook a pot of white rice. When Qu Mu found out, the rice was cooked.

She was so angry that she picked up the broom and was about to whip her, Qu Weizhen yelled, and directly pulled Qu Jingxi who ran out to watch the movement to block in front of her, raised her eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Mother, you have to be careful, who might be hit by this broom?"

"You, Xiaobao, get out of the way and let me teach her a good lesson. It's just that there is no law. How come there is a thief in the family who has learned how to steal rice."

"Who is that thief? We have rice and meat at home, but we sisters insist on eating steamed buns. We bought the meat, Qu Jingxi, tell me, will you give us the meat?"

Qu Jingxi stretched out her hand to stop Qu Weizhen, and said fiercely: "Mother, have a good Chinese New Year, you insist that our siblings be divorced? Aren't eldest sister and the others also your flesh and blood?"

Mother Qu choked, waving the broom and was about to scold, but she saw Zhaodi, Laidi and Daidi standing at the door of the room looking at her, her movements froze suddenly, her face flushed red.

Qu Weizhen sneered, turned around and took a piece of pork to defrost, took a small piece of mutton, and turned back to Zhaodi with a smile: "Sister, mutton is the best to eat in winter. Let's make it up at night. Drinking mutton soup will keep you warm all night."

In the evening, Mother Qu sat at the dining table with an ugly face, Father Qu looked fine, but he was also worried, Qu Jingxi looked around, got up silently and went back to the kitchen to bring out the steamed buns.

Mother Qu's eyes lit up, she looked at Qu Weizhen proudly, and was about to tell the four sisters to eat vegetable buns, when Qu Jingxi poured a bowl of soup for each of them, then picked up the vegetable buns and said, "Mother, I will eat this vegetable buns from now on."

Mother Qu opened her mouth wide.

Qu Weizhen took a sip of the soup calmly, looked at the fidgeting Zhaodi and the others and said, "This is served for you by my younger brother, drink it up, let's eat after drinking it."

"Brother, save that steamed bun for tomorrow, let's have soup and eat together."

Mother Qu's eyes were filled with tears, she wanted to get angry but didn't dare, she could only forced a smile and said: "Yes, yes, your third sister cooked a lot of rice today, let's eat first."

As he said that, he was about to take away the vegetable bun in front of him.

Qu Jingxi pressed down on the bowl, and said calmly: "No, I just eat vegetable buns. I haven't eaten them for many years. I almost forgot the taste of vegetable buns. When I came back, my third sister had already eaten it once, so I have to eat it again."

After all, she insisted on tearing apart the steamed buns and stuffing them into her mouth. The steamed buns made by Mother Qu for them had less oil and salt, and the noodles were still rough. How could it be delicious?

Qu Jingxi hadn't eaten such a thick meal for a long time, and it took a long time to swallow it, "It turns out that my sisters have been eating this kind of meal..."

Mother Qu couldn't help weeping bitterly, grabbed his arm and said, "Bao'er, we don't eat vegetable buns anymore, we only eat meat and soup, and I will give them to eat in the future. Is it okay if I don't divide them?"

Qu Jingxi smiled at her mother, pushed her soup bowl to her and said with a smile: "Mother, you can eat quickly, I don't want to drink soup or eat now, I just want to eat vegetable buns."

Mother Qu watched Qu Jingxi swallow the two steamed buns bit by bit, she couldn't help wiping her tears with her head down, Father Qu slapped the table with a green face and shouted, "Eat!"

The three Zhaodi sisters picked up their chopsticks to eat with trepidation, and Qu Weizhen had already eaten with relish. Tonight, I'm afraid she will be the one who eats the best.

It's just eating two steamed buns, and it won't kill anyone. She glanced at Mother Qu and shook her head speechlessly. Jingxi also ate this kind of food before, okay?

The next day, Qu Jingxi got up early to cook meat porridge for everyone, and took out the eggs she bought for everyone to make pancakes. The Qu family ate the most sumptuous breakfast ever.

Qu's father and Qu's mother no longer objected to eating at the same table as a family, but just ignored the four daughters indifferently.

And Zhaodi and the others were also persuaded by Qu Weizhen to let go after being anxious for half a night. Today, they treated this breakfast with the attitude of welcoming delicious food. Although they didn't speak, their hearts were jumping with joy.

Seeing this, Qu Jingxi breathed a sigh of relief, took a piece of cake and handed it to his father, then handed another piece to his mother, and then took one for himself.

Qu's father and Qu's mother breathed a sigh of relief, they were really afraid that he would eat vegetable buns again, this is their sweetheart, how could they eat vegetable buns?

The condition of their family is not that they can't afford white rice.
