Chapter 271 Peach Blossom Buds

At this time, the third uncle also said politely: "Xiao Jin, the third uncle is here to say thank you. Xiao Lin doesn't need to pay you for his work. I will pay him after he learns it."

The third aunt also nodded beside her and said awkwardly, "That's right."

Seeing that my son has a job, I feel relieved.

After living in my parents' home for a month, I realized that my parents had never loved me.

However, in order to help her mother's family out of poverty, she treated her own son badly.

Now I think I am not a human being.

Fortunately, it’s still not too late.

After the meal, everyone was very happy.

The host and the guest are happy.

Needless to say, in the afternoon we just chatted about everything.

Shen Xia is used to taking a nap.

Zhao Xue took Shen Xia back to her room to sleep, and even heated the kang for Shen Xia so that she wouldn't feel cold.

Everyone was eating melon seeds and chatting in the main room.

Shen Xia didn't know what time she had fallen asleep, but she woke up when she heard it was very noisy outside.

After a good sleep, I felt refreshed all over.

Shen Xia pricked up his ears and listened to what was happening outside.

I only heard my aunt say, "He family, you broke off the engagement first, so let it go now. What's the meaning of coming here again today?"

Mother He smiled and said, "Xu Mei, that's not the case. At the beginning, our Yu'er waited for your Zhao Yuan for several years. It was because your family didn't want to repair the house that we broke off the engagement."

Xu Mei said: "Yes, our family is not willing to repair the house now, so your family should find another one!"

Shen Xia got up and put on her clothes.

Then go out.

Looking at the yard, the entire He family is here.

But because of the noise, the people next door were also watching the fun outside the yard.

Because it’s in the countryside, the houses are next to each other.

Xu Mei saw Shen Xia getting up, and quickly came over to apologize, "Xiao Xia, did I disturb your sleep?"

Shen Xia smiled gently and said, "No, you're welcome, aunt. You can handle your personal affairs first."

Xu Mei nodded and said, "Okay, go into the main hall and sit down to chat with your grandma and the others."

"Ok."

Then he turned around and looked at He Yuer's mother: "He's family, there are some things that we don't need to explain too clearly. Everyone knows the situation. You know what happened in our family recently, so of course we can also know what happened in your family recently. You have wanted to meet a lot of matchmakers in town recently! But none of them were satisfactory. Suddenly, you heard about our family's situation, so you changed your mind."

The He family had no way to hide due to the aunt's straightforward words.

He Yuer looked at Zhao Yuan with an aggrieved look on her face: "Brother Zhao Yuan, it's not like that. I never wanted to cancel the engagement."

Zhao Yuan looked at He Yuer, the girl he had been eyeing since childhood that he would marry when he grew up.

He always called himself Brother Yuan behind his back, but things changed when his brother started working in town.

How could I not know the reason?

But I have been clear about this period of time.

Maybe the initial liking was just a habit!

Zhao Yuan hesitated and said, "If you didn't want to cancel the engagement, you could have said so, but you didn't say a word and just accepted your parents' arrangement, right? Now that you've accepted it, let's be polite and not disturb each other, okay?"

Zhao Yuan turned around and didn't look at He Yuer's pitiful appearance.

Seeing that they couldn't convince him, Mr. and Mrs. He took their daughter away dejectedly.

After leaving the yard, He Yuer looked at her mother with tears in her eyes and full of regret: "Now it's over! I had a good marriage originally, but you insisted on bargaining. Now everything is gone."

Mother He's face was full of anger: "Isn't it for your own good?"

"What's the result? Is it good for me?" He Yuer said angrily.

At this time, He's father also blamed him, "I blamed you at the beginning. I told you not to be anxious, but you insisted on being so anxious. Now look what you have done. The threshold of the Zhao family is about to be broken. If you don't back out, what a good marriage it will be!"

He's mother also said aggrievedly: "How could I know that the Zhao family would be in such a situation today!"

"You're such a short-sighted guy." He's father scolded.

My aunt watched the He family leave.

Then he looked at Zhao Yuan and said, "Xiao Yuan, your father and I still respect your opinion. Think it over. If you are still willing, we will not stop you."

Zhao Yuan glanced at his mother. Of course he knew that his mother had been worrying about his marriage over the years.

After thinking for a while, he comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, I will work with my cousin first, and we can talk about marriage later."

Only then did my aunt feel relieved.

All mothers are confused!

For the sake of the children, even if I don’t like it, I can tolerate it if the children like it.

But since you can put the children aside, it would be best to work first.

In this way, Shen Xia and his family stayed at grandma's house for a day.

Everyone is very happy.

After dinner, the family is going back home.

Grandma wanted to keep us all here for one night.

But Shen Xia felt that it was more convenient to live at home.

The eldest aunt smiled and said, "Xiao Xia's house is a bit crowded now. It will be better when it is renovated and made wider by the end of the year. Then you can stay overnight."

Shen Xia smiled and said, "Okay."

Suddenly I thought: "My aunt must want to build the house here?"

Everyone was confused when they heard this.

if not?

Shen Xia smiled and said, "It's like this. I don't know if Zhao Xue has told you that I will build a college over there in the future, and I will also build a town. So, if you don't have to build a house here, you can buy a house over there. After your cousins ​​get married, it will be convenient for their children to go to school."

Listen to it, everyone.

Town building——

Such a grand decision.

Song Yun was surprised when he heard this.

Although it seems like a fantasy to everyone now, he believes that as long as Shen Xia says it.

Then the future won’t be difficult.

Second aunt wondered: "Buy a house? There is no house to sell?"

Shen Xia smiled and said, "In the next one or two years, I will buy a piece of land and build a lot of houses and sell them to everyone."

My aunt asked, "Will it be expensive?"

"No? It's just gathering people." Shen Xia explained.

"Oh, that's good too. The main thing is that it's very good for the child to be able to study." said my aunt.

Although my third aunt didn't say anything, she was thinking in her heart that she must raise more silkworms this year so that when she has enough money, she can buy a new house.

My grandchildren will also be able to study in the future.

Shen Xia thought that if his uncles bought the house, then his grandparents would definitely have to move there as well, and then his mother would be able to see her parents more often.

"Well, there are shops in front of the yard, and we can do some small business there." Shen Xia explained.

My second aunt smiled and said, "That's great," then she looked at my second uncle and said, "Boss, we must make money to buy a house."

The second uncle nodded with a smile: "Okay."

Everyone has said pretty much the same thing.

Song Ming helped his mother get on the carriage first.

Song Jin helped Shen Xia get into the carriage.

In this way, Song Jin also went out on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Song Yun, Xiaowu and Xiaotian went to school.

There were only Song Ming and Song's mother at home.

As time went by, the snow on the ground gradually melted, as if swallowed by the changes in the weather.

The earth is coming back to life, peach blossoms are beginning to bloom, and the scent of spring is everywhere.

The ice and snow have melted for a month, and everyone has already started to receive silkworms and raise them.

Although many people are raising silkworms now, there is no shortage of supply.

Previously, I only made colored silk into thread, but the silkworm pupae could not be preserved because they were used to make thread.

But there are a lot of white cocoons, so there are still enough silkworm treasures.

The weather is slowly getting warmer.

Shen Xia sat in the yard, lowered her head and gently stroked her bulging belly, her heart full of anticipation and anxiety.

There was less than half a month left until the due date, but her eldest brother had not returned yet, and her third brother, who had promised to come home in early March, was also nowhere to be seen.
