The seven emotions and six desires are all my nourishment

After a while, Liu Xiao'e came over with the doctor. "Doctor, please take a look. Our uncle said that our parents have been ill for several days. What's wrong with them? What medicine did you prescribe? How could they pass away so suddenly?"

The doctor gasped and waved his hands, "They haven't come to get any medicine, so they dare not wrongly accuse me!"

He reached out to feel the pulse, confirmed death, and then checked the tongue and eyes. "Your parents are suffering from a bad stomach, dehydration, and heatstroke. They must have died!"

No one saw Hua Xiucai glare at Liu Xiaoe fiercely, except Hua Lao Da who had been observing him.

The doctor's words prevented him from being blamed, but his reputation wasn't very good either.

The weather was so hot that the body could not be kept there, so the elder family bought two thin coffins and the two brothers wore mourning clothes to settle the matter.

After the incident, Hua Xiucai didn't spend a penny and even gained a reputation for filial piety.

Boss Hua smiled grimly, "My fellow villagers, from now on I will be the son-in-law of the Liu family, and I will not compete with Hua Ganji for a single share of the family property."

"Please bear witness here. From now on, if Hua Ganji lives a good life, I will not ask him for a bite of food even if I beg. If he lives a bad life, I will not give him a single steamed bun!"

Hua Ganji was naturally willing, but now he was just trying to persuade her, "Brother, why bother? Is it really necessary for us brothers to go to this extent..."

Boss Hua didn't say much to him. He took his wife and children and left without caring what the villagers said about him.

Hua Ganji looked unhappy. The wheat harvest was about to begin. What should he do?

There is no way. He can’t carry it on his shoulders or lift it with his hands. Sooner or later, he will fly out of this broken village!

In that case...one word: sell!

Families with large populations would be very happy if they could buy this land!

You can buy land and get food, and it’s tax-free. This is a great thing!

After the wheat harvest, Li Xiucai asked the village head to allocate a piece of land to him. It was right next to Zhang the Butcher. He built a house in just three or two months. Although it was not big, it was clean and tidy.

Li Xiucai never fights a battle without preparation. If he wants to marry Yaoyao, he must have his own house. It doesn't have to be too good, because he wants to take Yaoyao away in the future.

Keep this, I'm worried...

Now, in addition to earning money by copying books, he also goes to the town to do abacus work for people.

The rest of the time I would read in the yard at home, enjoying Yaoyao's obsessed gaze on the wall.

Distance creates beauty... He has a lot of clothes now...

Yaoyao even asked her father to make a small ladder under the wall. Yaoyao was very happy to watch, but this did not stop her from looking at other handsome men.

It's also because the current dynasty is not so feudal, otherwise, this female hooligan like Yaoyao would probably be thrown into a pig cage for her behavior.

The days passed by like flowing water. One day, Yaoyao and his father were selling pork in the town. Li Xiucai had just handed in the copied books and received a few taels of silver. He turned around and went to the jewelry store to choose a peach blossom hairpin for Yaoyao.

"Recipe, Shining.

The son is married, suitable for the family...

Yaoyao will be fifteen next year..."

Li Xiucai stroked the peach blossom hairpin and put it in his arms.

With a gentle smile on his face, he walked towards the pork stall at the intersection of East Street.

When Li Xiucai arrived, Hua Xiucai was also there, but he was standing on the other side of the pork stall with a gloomy face.

Now Yaoyao is holding a fair-skinned young man in her hand, with almond eyes and rosy cheeks, like a girl.

"Whose son are you? How old are you? Are you married? Your hands are so soft. Which piece of meat do you want? I'll make you a pig's trotter~" Yaoyao looked like a crazy fan. The man was so handsome, and his hands were also beautiful and soft.

The young man was so enthusiastically pulled by her hand that he couldn't pull it away. When he heard about the pig's trotter, he stopped struggling and said, "I... my mother and I just moved to town... I want pork leg meat... two pounds... thank you."

The young man was thin-skinned, and when she pulled and rubbed his hand, his face turned red all the way to his neck.

Yaoyao did not delay in cutting the meat and cut it without blinking. If she did not let go, she would not be able to tie the straw rope, but she was reluctant to let go.

Hua Xiucai's face was gloomy. He had a hard time spending his money, and he had sold all his land. The exam would not be held until next year...

Now the treatment that was exclusively reserved for him was first snatched away by Li Xiucai, and now that he has gone to such great lengths to find her, this wanton woman has grabbed another man's hand!

When he passes the exam, he will definitely kill this bitch!

Li Xiucai's face didn't look good either, but after he took a deep breath, he walked over with his immortal demeanor and a murderous aura.

"Xiaoyao, don't you have time to tie the rope? Have you weighed it yet? Let me help you." Li Xiucai took the meat naturally, weighed it skillfully, and tied the rope. "Two catties and two ounces. Just pay for two catties. Thank you for your patronage."

"The pig's trotter is already taken, so I'll give you a bone instead."

As he said this, he specifically brought over two ropes, one in each hand for the young man opposite.

The young man couldn't pull his hands away, and his blushing face made him look like a green tea scoundrel in Li Xiucai's eyes.

Li Xiucai was a little unhappy. He put down the meat and gently pulled Yaoyao, "Yaoyao~" he said while looking at her affectionately.

"Ah? You're here?" Yaoyao immediately let go of Li Luo's hand and grabbed it again, stroking it with enjoyment, with curved eyebrows and eyes, looking very cute.

Although the boy with peach blossom eyes is good-looking, he does not have the indescribable energy that Li Xiucai has.

Tsk, it’s really exciting anyway!

Also, he won't resist and will just smile to himself.

Li Xiucai took the time to collect the money, and the young man took the bones and meat and ran away like a rabbit.

Hua Xiucai walked towards the stall with a gloomy face, adulterous couple!

Old Man Zhang came back, picking his teeth and carrying a steamed bun in his arms. He nudged Hua Xiucai lightly with his shoulder and said, "Who is that? You're blind!"

"Oh, it's Mr. Hua. What do you want? Five cents' worth of fat meat? I really have some today. Come here and give me the money!" Old Man Zhang stretched out his hand as big as a bear's paw, with a sarcastic look on his face.

Hua Xiucai stumbled after being knocked back, then stood up and sneered, "Uncle Zhang, you are so polite. Today I'm here to propose marriage. My daughter is about to turn fifteen..."

Father Zhang finally realized that his daughter has grown up so much!!!

"I don't mind Yaoyao being a widow, and I've come here today to propose..."

"Get out! Bah! I would never marry my daughter to anyone else but you! You're dreaming! Bah!" Old Man Zhang really hated him.

Especially since he was so disrespectful, coming to the pork stall and saying that he wanted to marry his beloved baby, and he looked like his father and daughter were taking advantage of him, which was particularly hateful!

If it were Hua Xiucai in the past, he would have definitely walked away, but there was Li Xiucai beside Yaoyao, so he felt a little nervous.

So he didn't leave, but just said, "I think Miss Yaoyao has a plan in mind, I'll ask her myself!" He walked around Old Man Zhang and went straight to the pork stall.

The adulterous couple were still holding hands at this time, which was particularly eye-catching to the scholar. "Xiaoyao, you will be fifteen next year. I am proposing to you today. Are you willing to marry me?" Although he was asking about marriage, he still looked arrogant, without any change.
