Zhou Lang ran a little hard, and when he stopped, not only his hands and feet were weak, but also his body was shaking a little.
He changed his clothes with difficulty and returned to the main room shaking his hands and feet.
Lao Zhoutou was a little unhappy because he had been blamed for nothing. When he saw him, he asked, "Why are you crying?"
Zhou Lang blushed and lowered his head without saying a word.
Old Zhou couldn't help but slap the table, "I want to ask you a question, did you get into trouble today?"
Friday Lang and Saturday Lang were extremely anxious, but they couldn't think of a good excuse.
Zhou Lang murmured for a long time, and finally said with a pinched neck: "No, I, I'm just sad."
"Why are you sad? You have food and clothing, and you are going to move into a new house in two days. What are you sad about?"
Man Bao said quickly: "Fourth brother is not married."
Lao Zhoutou glanced at her, and then asked Zhou Lang: "Don't you have a wife? You are only eighteen, why are you so anxious?"
After saying that, he said with a hatred of steel: "It is difficult for you to marry a wife, but it is even more difficult to cry like this. Look at you, do you look like a man? Who is willing to marry their daughter to a crybaby?"
Old Zhou was so angry that he caught him and scolded him. He didn't stop until his daughters-in-law had prepared dinner and brought the food to them.
Although there was meat to eat tonight, everyone ate quietly. Zhou Dalang rarely expressed his brotherly love to Zhou Lang and gave him a piece of meat.
Zhou Lang and Zhou Lang also expressed their friendship to him and gave him a piece of meat.
Thursday Lang:......
Friday Lang and Saturday Lang:...What should we do if we want to cry too?
Man Bao also diligently gave him a piece of meat in his bowl, and then he immersed himself in eating.
Mentioning Zhou Lang's marriage, Lao Zhoutou couldn't help but ask Qian before going to bed at night, "If we fell in love before, why did the matchmaker not introduce us again?"
Qian glanced at Man Bao, who was hiding behind the screen with a guilty conscience, and said, "Do you really believe what they say? Do you think the fourth child is in a hurry to get a wife?"
"He is not young anymore. He should really be anxious."
Qian said: "The matchmaker later proposed another family, but it was so good that I didn't dare to mention it because I was afraid that the fourth son of our family would not be worthy of his daughter."
"Whose family is it?"
"The little girl from Fang butcher's family in Dali Village."
Lao Zhou thought about it for the first time and realized that his family was really not good enough for him. "Why did the matchmaker mention his family? It can't be that his family has taken a liking to our fourth child, right?"
Qian said: "The Fang family may not be interested in it, but the Fang family's little girl is."
She smiled and said: "The fourth child is not bad looking. He has been going to the market a lot this year to buy meat. I guess the Fang family couldn't bear to mention it to the little girl, so they mentioned it to the matchmaker."
Of course, Qian could guess this because the matchmaker revealed it intentionally or unintentionally.
Although she didn't say it clearly, her meaning was revealed. It was the little girl of the Fang family who fell in love with Zhou Lang, and her parents couldn't bear the child's begging, so they mentioned it to the matchmaker.
Qian had always been self-aware, and marriage was about being well-matched, so she only listened and had no intention of telling Zhou Lang about the little girl of the Fang family.
But Lao Zhoutou was silent for a moment and said: "Then take the children to have a look when you have time."
Mr. Qian frowned, "There's a big difference in family background."
"It's not that big. The Fang family is relatively rich, but our Zhou family still has scholars." Old Zhoutou was very confident in his family. He said: "Now several children have learned how to read with Manbao. This is great in the world."
There are only one families in every village. Don’t you want to find a powerful wife for the fourth child? I think the Fang family is good. The daughter-in-law has enough confidence. If the fourth child behaves stupidly in the future, it will be easy to clean up."
Qian became thoughtful.
Manbao hid on the bed, silently mourning for his fourth brother in his heart.
Early the next morning, she slipped out of bed and ran to inform Zhou Lang. Of course, she would not tell him her parents' plan, but told him happily, "Fourth brother, mother is going to kiss you again.
"
Zhou Lang slept for a night and his condition improved. Hearing this, he yawned and asked, "Whose girl is this?"
"You will definitely like my sister this time."
Zhou Lang perked up and asked, "Why? Is he particularly beautiful? Have you ever seen him?"
Man Bao said: "I haven't seen it, but you must have seen it. There is a lot of meat in her house."
Zhou Lang blinked and asked: "What do you mean her family has a lot of meat?"
"Because her family is a butcher!" Man Bao said: "My biggest wish when I was a child was that my father would be a butcher, so that I would have meat to eat every day. Fourth brother, my wish cannot be realized, but you can.
."
My father-in-law is also my father.
Zhou Lang thought about it for a while and found that it was true. His eyes gradually brightened and he asked: "Which butcher's girl?"
Man Bao said: "It seems that his surname is Fang."
Zhoulang's eyes lit up and he sat up from the bed immediately, "It's her!"
He knows the young lady of the Fang family very well!
This year, because Man Bao was very wealthy, he often gave him money to buy meat. Unless he went to the county town, he would buy it at a large market.
As for mutton and pork, he prefers to buy mutton. Of course, mutton is more nutritious.
There are only two meat stalls in Daji, one sells mutton, the other sells pork, and the Fang family sells mutton.
Sometimes when Zhou Lang went to buy meat, Uncle Fang was not there, so the young lady of the Fang family looked after the stall. After going back and forth, the two of them became acquainted with each other.
Because they were acquaintances, Zhou Lang blushed a little and asked Man Bao: "Did you hear clearly, this is the young lady of the Fang family?"
Man Bao nodded and asked, "Is she good-looking?"
Zhou Lang said coyly: "That's it."
But his eyes were sparkling, and he stopped lying down and simply got up, "Did Mom say when we will go on a blind date? Should we go, or will they come to our house?"
"I'll ask for you." Man Bao turned around and ran away.
Zhou Lang quickly grabbed her, "Why are you asking? This is a matter decided by adults. Ahem, just listen to what your parents say."
"Mom said you are not worthy of the little lady from the Shang family. Dad said you can give it a try. Maybe she will like you..."
Zhou Lang reached out and covered her mouth, "Okay, you don't have to say anything."
Sure enough, a dog cannot spit out ivory from its mouth.
Zhou Lang found his best set of clothes and put them on. After thinking about it, he said to Man Bao, "Why don't you go ask your mother?"
Man Bao snorted, turned around and left.
Zhou Lang scratched his head, lowered his head and walked out with her.
Man Bao was unreliable, but Zhou Lang took it personally and began to pay careful attention to his mother's movements. This attention revealed a problem.
Qian finally listened to what Lao Zhoutou said and asked the matchmaker to come over. They talked for a while in the room and the matchmaker left. Then she came over again in the afternoon. In the evening of the same day, after dinner,
After eating, Qian said to Zhou Lang: "Tomorrow you and I will go to Dali Village and buy some meat to make meat buns."
Man Bao immediately said: "I'll go too!"
Qian lowered his head and said with a smile: "Okay, Man Bao will go with us."
Zhou Lang was a little excited and glanced at Man Bao, why are you everywhere?
