Li Yu worriedly stepped forward and opened Li Qing's eyelids to take a look. He saw some redness and smiled angrily, "Does it still hurt? Why are you so careless?"

After hearing this, Li Qing's nose became sore and tears almost fell again. He quickly turned to look at the kitchen and touched his stomach, "Sister, I'm hungry. Are the pumpkin buns steamed?"

Li Yu felt that something was wrong with Li Qing, thinking that Zhou Jia was reprimanding him for not doing his homework well. He turned around and glared at Zhou Jia, and said softly: "When it's done, go to the kitchen and ask Mrs. Liu to get it for you."

After Li Qing left, Li Yu said to Zhou Jia: "Xiao Xi, I think Ah Qing has cried. Did you teach Ah Qing that he didn't do his homework well?"

"No way, Ah Qing is very good at his homework. Mr. Lin is so interested in him that he will take the exam next year!"

Zhou Jia knew that Li Qing must have been secretly hiding in the bathroom and crying, but his brother-in-law cried twice. It was not important to have a wife, so he touched his nose and pretended not to know.

After dinner, Li Qing took out a carved hosta with blooming flowers from his bag and handed it to Li Yu, "Sister, I chose it for you in the shop and gave it to you. I wish you and your brother-in-law a happy harmony. of."

Li Yu's heart felt warm after hearing this, and he looked at Li Qing with a smile on his face, "You stinky kid, you speak in the same tone as your aunt at such a young age. Don't worry, I will be fine."

Li Qing looked at Li Yu and said, "Sister, after you and your brother-in-law get married, feel free to accompany your brother-in-law to Kyoto to take the exam. I will come find you in two years." As tears started to come out again, Li Qing stood up quickly, "Sister-in-law , I’ll go to bed first when I’m tired from riding in the car, and you should rest early.”

"Go! Get some rest early." Li Yu looked at Li Qing's back with emotion in his heart: The skinny little kid back then has turned into a handsome young man, and he will take the exam for merit in two years.

Early the next morning, Li Mei took Li and several women to put all of Li Yu's dowry into boxes. Each box was filled to the brim. Together with the betrothal gift sent by Zhou Jia, there were sixty items in total. Eight lifts, everyone looked at these dowries with envy. Someone pointed at the dowries and said to Li Mei, "Amei, those fields on Zhuangzi are all Xiaoyu's dowries?"

Li Mei smiled happily, "Those lands were all betrothal gifts sent by my uncle. There are also some shops and properties that my uncle bought and sent over."

After hearing this, several women opened their mouths in surprise, "Oh! Mr. Zhou really loves his wife. He has bought so many real estate shops and hired people. Xiaoyu is a lucky person."

Li said with a smile: "Why don't you say how capable Xiaoyu is! A man who can marry such a wife is lucky!"

Everyone thought so after listening to it. The women quickly packed their dowries and began to decorate the house. Li Mei, along with the women who helped in the village and the servants of Li Yu's family, posted happy words and various auspicious symbols everywhere in the house. The window grilles were cut out, and the Zhou and Li families were decorated with lanterns and festoons, beaming with joy.

On the morning of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Ruyi and Jixiang went to the mountains to hunt some game and came back. Old man Zhao and Jin Jiu selected the fattest chickens, ducks and fish from the breeding farm and sent them to their homes.

Starting from the seventh night of the Lunar New Year, the villagers began to have a pig-killing banquet at Zhou's house. Li Yu called Li Qing into the house and took out the family's account books and prepared to hand them over to Li Qing one by one. Li Qing looked at Li Yu and refused. He took the account books and said with a forced smile: "Sister, just leave the account books with you. When I get married, you can give them to my wife to take care of."

Li Yu teased him with a smile, "Hey! I didn't expect that my Ah Qing is also a doting wife, but I still have to leave these things to you. As the head of the Li family, how can you not know what kind of property the family has?" Li Yu said to the villagers The land deeds and house deeds, as well as the house deeds of the shop Zhou Jia bought for Li Qing in Tongzhou, were all handed over to Li Qing. "Ah Qing, you have to put them away. These are the house deeds, land deeds of the family, and the house deeds of the shop in Tongzhou. In the workshop at home, your brother-in-law has 50% of the stock, and there is another 50% of the stock, you have 20%, my sister has 20%, and my aunt has 10%. You can study in peace, Uncle Zhou, uncle, and aunt will take care of it."

Li Qing could no longer control the reluctance in his heart, and hugged Li Yu and cried loudly. Li Yu hugged Li Qing, who was almost as tall as himself, thinking that in two months, it would be several years before the siblings could see each other. Seeing this, I felt extremely sad and started to cry.

Li Yu wiped away his tears and patted Li Qing's back gently. Li Qing cried for a while and wiped away his tears. He looked up at Li Yu and said shyly: "Sister, I'm either scared or feeling uncomfortable. Don't worry and be with me." My brother-in-law will go to Kyoto to take the exam together. I will study hard and try to meet you in Kyoto as soon as possible." Li Qing paused and said, "Sister, you should be good after you get married. Don't wrong yourself. It's okay for my brother-in-law to be nice to you. Not good. I will definitely knock on your door and pick you up."

Li Yu laughed after hearing this, "Our Aqing and aunt are indeed aunt and nephew. You two said the same thing. Don't worry, your brother-in-law won't treat me badly. Besides, your sister is not a character who wants to be submissive."

Li Qing looked at the smiling Li Yu and thought: I'm not afraid that you will be coaxed by his brother-in-law's sweet words.

On the eighth day of September, as soon as the sky turned white, Zhou Jia began to worship the ancestors of heaven and earth. He informed the ancestors of heaven and earth that the Zhou family was getting a wife, and asked them to bless the bride with everything going well and a son soon.

When the auspicious time came, Zhou Jia wore a bright red wedding dress, with a same-color belt embroidered with gold patterns around her waist. Her black hair was tied up and fixed with a gilt gold crown. The whole person was made even more handsome and incomparable. In the village, The eight young men who were helping to welcome the bride stared straight-up. Uncle Zhou coughed dryly, and then they came to their senses and followed Zhou Jia on horseback to welcome the bride.

Before dawn, Li Yu was awakened by Li Mei, "Yu'er, go take a bath and wash up quickly. Aunt Li has invited Aunt Li to treat you."

After Li Yu got up and took a shower, Mrs. Li pulled Li Yu to sit in front of the bronze mirror and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, this is my first time doing this, so I'm a little unfamiliar with it. If it hurts, please bear with it!"

Li Yu bent his knees and saluted Mrs. Li, "Aunt Li, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Why bother?" Mrs. Li smiled and took out the string, humming a festive song, and opened Li Yu's face with a somewhat clumsy movement. After the opening, she applied a layer of egg white on Li Yu's face. Mrs. Li looked at Li Yu and praised: "Xiaoyu is naturally beautiful, look at this face, it's as white, tender and delicate as a peeled egg."

Li Yu's face was taut with egg white, Laidi smiled and said to Li Yu: "Cousin, don't forget, you promised me to be the shopkeeper for you."

Li Yu looked at Lai Di and Li Qing and Li Mei who were standing aside and stared blankly at him. He stretched out his hand to hold Lai Di and smiled slightly. Li Mei and Zhao Di both had red eyes and patted Lai Di. "Smelly girl, heartless."

Laidi looked at the others aggrievedly, "Why is it my fault again?"

Li Yu washed his face again, and Mrs. Li gave Li Yu a bun. Together with Li Mei, she helped Li Yu put on her wedding clothes. Mrs. Li looked at Li Yu's lips and said, "The little fish is born well. I think it's fine." Put some lipstick on your lips and don’t need to apply anything else.”

Li Mei picked up a piece of lipstick and handed it to Li Yu's lips, "Okay, just put some lipstick on your lips."

Li Yu put on her lipstick and looked at the red and festive face in the bronze mirror. She suddenly felt a little absent-minded. She had been married for two generations and just put on her wedding dress today, but the person who wanted to see her get married the most was no longer there.

Mrs. Li picked up the phoenix crown and said to Li Mei: "Amei, it's up to you to put the phoenix crown on the little fish!"

With moist eyes, Li Mei took the phoenix crown and put it gently on Li Yu's head. Mrs. Li put the fan in Li Yu's hand and asked her to cover her face. Erya called at the door, "Girl, my uncle is here to welcome the bride." .”

hey-hey! Book friends, our little fish is getting married!
