Chapter 31 Going to the Hunter's House
Xu Qiuyue wants to help Tian Chunlian.
Because if you pay off your debts with work.
Tian Chunlian's native place remains unchanged, as long as she pays off the money.
In this case, Tian Chunlian and the hunter might still be able to be together.
Although Xu Qiuyue was angry that the hunter had married long ago in his previous life, he had let down Tian Chunlian's deep affection.
If he could hold on for two more years, just two more years, he would be able to marry Tian Chunlian.
But he didn't.
But there are many men like this in this world.
A man like Hunter can be considered a good man.
Xu Qiuyue sighed in her heart that some of what Liu Ping said was right.
In her heart, Xu Qiuyue still hopes that Tian Chunlian can achieve her wish in this life.
Able to marry a hunter.
Tian Chunlian did not have a good life in her previous life, and she suffered a lot.
The most important thing is that Xu Qiuyue knows clearly in her heart that Tian Chunlian only wants to marry a hunter, have many children, and live an ordinary life.
Everyone pursues different things in life.
Tian Chunlian disliked Liu Ping very much in her previous life. In Tian Chunlian's heart, a woman can only love one person in her life.
In this life, Xu Qiuyue hopes that the hunter will not let Tian Chunlian down.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiuyue felt that it might not be safe to tell Lu's mother.
Xu Qiuyue decided to take the initiative to find the hunter.
Xu Qiuyue took Wang Po with her and went to find the hunter.
Wang Po is the matchmaker of Taohua Town.
The hunter went out hunting.
Xu Qiuyue sat in the hunter's house waiting.
The hunter has a younger brother and sister.
Although his parents died early and he has two burdens, the hunter is still a popular man.
Because the hunter's younger brother is a scholar and now he is already a student, he may become a scholar in the provincial examination next year.
As for my younger sister, she will get married sooner or later.
Moreover, the hunter has several acres of land in the village.
These conditions are not bad.
Moreover, the hunter's younger brother was also very polite and took the initiative to pour tea for Xu Qiuyue and the matchmaker.
In the evening, Tian Chunlian took the initiative to come to the hunter's house and cook for the hunter's family.
"Qiuyue, why are you here!"
Tian Chunlian said with great surprise when she saw Xu Qiuyue.
"You haven't even married yet, but you come to someone's house to work every day."
Xu Qiuyue said jokingly to Tian Chunlian.
"Qiuyue, what nonsense are you talking about! It's all because Brother Xu is so kind. He not only gave me food, but also meat."
Tian Chunlian lowered her head and spoke to Xu Qiuyue shyly.
Only then did Xu Qiuyue remember.
According to the Tian family’s style, women are not allowed to sit at the table, nor can they eat. They can only drink wild vegetable porridge to fill their stomachs.
The meat in the house can only be eaten by men.
Tian Chunlian did not become emaciated due to hunger, and half of this was due to the hunter.
Every evening after finishing her farm work, Tian Chunlian would go to the hunter's house to help.
The hunter would keep Tian Chunlian for dinner.
Not only did he let Tian Chunlian sit at the table, he also took the initiative to pick up some meat for her.
Tian Chunlian and Xu Qiuyue talked about this matter over and over again.
Tian Chunlian always said that she had never met anyone as good as Hunter in her life.
At night, the hunter returned with pheasants, hares, and some herbs.
Hunters know a little bit about medicine, and they treat injuries themselves. Hunters also pick valuable herbs, collect them together, and then sell them in town.
Except for medicinal herbs such as ginseng, they are generally not dug up, because if they are dug up, the roots will be cut off and they will not grow anymore and cannot be harvested.
Xu Qiuyue saw the hunter, pulled him outside the yard, and said to him, "Tian Chunlian is a good girl. I brought a matchmaker to your house today and wanted to ask you, are you willing to marry her?"
The hunter's surname is Xu, and he is also from Xujia Village.
Seeing that the hunter was silent, Xu Qiuyue said to him, "The Tian family borrowed money from the Lu family, and now they are unwilling to sell the land to repay the debt. Chunlian is also old enough to get married. I don't want her to be implicated because of this matter. She likes you.
The herbs you picked today are worth a lot of money. I spent thirty taels of silver to buy them. You can go to the Tian family to propose marriage when the time comes."
"These herbs of mine are worth at most two taels of silver. They are not worth that much."
"It's worth it if you give me the pheasant and rabbit, Hunter Xu. Chunlian came to your house to cook such a meal. You are a man, so you should take the initiative.
I grew up with her and dug herbs in the mountains together. I am her family member.”
As Xu Qiuyue spoke, she stuffed the silver that she had exchanged in advance into the hunter's palm.
Xu Qiuyue was afraid that the hunter would return the money to her, so she took the initiative to pick up the herbs, pheasants and rabbits and left.
"The matchmaker will stay at your house for one night. Go and ask for marriage tomorrow morning. I have already paid the matchmaker money.
I am now married to the Lu family. Lu Yuan is the richest man in town and has no shortage of money, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Xu Qiuyue did not look back at the hunter.
Tian Chunlian didn't understand what was going on. Seeing Xu Qiuyue leaving, she hurriedly chased after him and shouted, "Qiuyue, it's so late. It's dangerous for you to walk on the mountain road. You can stay for dinner and stay at my house."
But Xu Qiuyue did not look back.
Although the mountain road is long, her pace is not slow. If she uses light skills, she can be even faster than a carriage.
And Xu Qiuyue rented a carriage.
After all, the driver has to go back after coming here.
The driver was waiting in the car.
Tian Chunlian watched Xu Qiuyue get on the car, and asked the hunter curiously, "Qiuyue is so strange! Why did you come here suddenly, but you didn't even eat and just went back."
Tian Chunlian didn't know what Xu Qiuyue and the hunter had said.
Because Xu Qiuyue pulled the hunter out to talk alone.
"Chunlian, will you marry me?"
The hunter suddenly asked Tian Chunlian.
Tian Chunlian lowered her head, embarrassed to look at the hunter, but her ears and cheeks were already covered with red clouds.
"Brother Xu, why did you suddenly say that?"
"Mrs. Lu said that your family owed the Lu family a lot of money, so she gave me thirty taels of silver and asked me to marry you."
"Brother Xu!"
Tian Chunlian was very grateful.
She didn't expect that Xu Qiuyue would come to the countryside just for her.
She felt that Xu Qiuyue's life in the Lu Mansion was not easy.
Because the Lu family gave so much betrothal gifts, but in the end Xu's parents only gave a few rotten vegetable leaves as a dowry.
Only the Xu family could do such a wicked thing.
No matter who you are, if you marry into your husband's family like this, you will definitely be looked down upon.
Xu's father felt ashamed and now basically never returns to Xujia Village. I heard that he went to the next town and bought a house there.
Xu's mother took Xu Chunhua to Taohua Town.
And then what happened later.
Tian Chunlian didn’t know.
But Tian Chunlian knew about her family's situation.
Her parents didn't want to pay back the money and thought about kneeling down in front of Lord Lu and crying so that they could deny the debt.
But Lu Yuan is not a vegetarian.
I heard that Lu Yuan specially hired a very famous lawyer to deal with them.
Tian Chunlian was a little worried.
