Chapter 64: Where did Ding Sanniang go?
After chatting with Tang Yiyun for a few hours, this topic didn't know how many turns, but this Tang Yiyun just didn't know what he meant, either looking ahead and looking backwards, or looking left and right to talk about other things, so that Yue Yao blocked his chest in one breath, and he couldn't go up or down.
"Sister, you can say a happy word to your sister, but you don't look down on your sister's family. Yue Yao simply picked out all the words and said.
Tang Yiyun looked at Yue Yao's face with a little anger, and didn't know if she was really angry, so she hurriedly said with a smile, "Sister, what do you want, it's naturally a good thing to be able to marry my sister, but this brother is not here, at least listen to what this brother says, marriage is a big event, and it's not easy for me, who is an uncle, to call the shots." ”
"Hmph, I said that my brother likes your family, my sister has pretended to be stupid again and again, it seems that she has something else in her heart, it is better to say it and tell her sister, so that my sister will not think in vain. Yue Yao pinched the woolen bag in his hand in the palm of his hand, and was about to stand up.
Tang Yiyun hurriedly took Yue Yao's hand, with a smile on her face, "Good sister, don't be angry first, I haven't finished saying this yet, this Yanqing is naturally good to marry into your family, in this way, let's pick a day, I will send you the eight characters of the birthday, and then when Brother Chao'er comes back, you will come to propose, this ceremony is done, this bride can't run away." ”
"Brother Chao is still in Shanghai at this time, and it may take a month to come back. Yue Yao frowned slightly, looked at Tang Yiyun, and said, "Sister, I have to leave Yanqing to my brother." ”
"This is natural, in this Rong City, there is still a young man in this Rong City. Tang Yiyun praised beside him.
Feng Ranran walked back from outside, and just talked with Fang Yanqing in the courtyard for a while, thinking about it for a long time, afraid that Yue Yao would not find anyone later, and then Tang Yiyun sent someone to find it, so he thought about going back to the main house to sit first.
Chao Tang Yiyun and Yue Yao blessed their bodies and bowed, Feng Ranran sat next to Yue Yao with a smile on her face, "I just heard my cousin's name, what are you talking about?"
"You kid, you're talking about your brother's marriage with Yanqing, you're not married yet, and you don't know how to be shy, so you only inquire about other people's marriages. Yue Yao reached out and pinched Feng Ranran's soft and tender little face, and said with a smile.
"My brother is no one else, and I also want Yanqing to be my sister-in-law. Feng Ranran was coquettish and rubbed beside Yue Yao.
Yue Yao listened to Feng Ranran's words, and looked at Tang Yiyun with a smile, "This child is spoiled, sister, don't be surprised." After speaking, he looked up at the sky outside and said, "I've been bothering for a few hours, and I've said what I should have said, so let's go back to the house first, uh, my sister said that the birthday post will be sent tomorrow, and I just want to go to the temple to worship the day after tomorrow, and by the way, take it with me, and kill two birds with one stone." ”
Tang Yiyun listened to Yue Yao's words, and also laughed, "This feeling is good, I will ask someone to send it over tomorrow after I finish writing the post, and it will be time for lunch later, why don't you stay and have a light meal?"
Yue Yao shook her head gently, "The old lady is still in the house, the season has changed these days, the old lady is not in good health, I have to go back to accompany her." ”
Tang Yiyun nodded clearly, and also stood up, her dark green cheongsam was a little wrinkled, "Then I'll send my sister." ”
The two laughed all the way, the elder sister and the younger sister walked outside the Fang Mansion, and kept sending Yue Yao into the carriage, and only walked back to the courtyard after watching Yue Yao leave.
There was not much space in the carriage, and Yue Yao supported her head with one hand, slightly exerting force, rubbing the circle, relieving her fatigue. This Tang Yiyun, I don't know what the hell she is thinking, saying that she doesn't want to get married, and she is very enthusiastic, saying that she wants to get married, and she keeps shirking it, and she is angry and agrees with a smile.
Feng Ranran looked at Yue Yao with a headache, and helped Yue Yao rub her shoulders beside her, "Uncle, I just went to Yanqing's yard, Yanqing is fine at all, she is in good spirits and makes pastries and reads in the house, that Tang Yiyun she lied." ”
"I know she lied. Yue Yao laughed when she heard Feng Ranran complaining to herself and complaining, "It's just that we know that if we lie, we have to accompany her to act." ”
"Why? Feng Ranran said puzzledly, unable to figure out how to think about these false exchanges.
Yue Yao's hand scratched Feng Ranran's nose, "Just because we still have to marry your sister-in-law from her." But there is no need to be afraid of her, she is clear in her heart, and she doesn't dare to go against our family too much, let's follow her first, and wait for Xiao Yanzi to marry back, otherwise, your future sister-in-law will not be able to control if she is bullied in that family. ”
Listening to Yue Yao's words, Feng Ranran also nodded.
Ding Sanniang's yard was in the west of the city, and at the intersection, Feng Ranran called a car and stopped, told Yue Yao that she wanted to visit someone, and got out of the car.
The courtyard door was closed, Xiao Man knocked on the door several times and didn't hear the footsteps, it stands to reason that someone should hear it, is it going out, Xiao Man patted the door vigorously, and then hung his hand down weakly, "Girl, it seems that no one is there." ”
Feng Ranran wrinkled her nose a little strangely, "It's strange, Kung Fu is not at home at this time, is it possible to eat at someone else's house?"
"Probably. Xiao Man said, looked up at the courtyard wall next to him, and then looked at Feng Ranran.
"Forget about going over the wall, I'm wearing a new outfit today, I'm wearing it for the first time, and I don't want it to be scrapped yet. Feng Ranran hurriedly shook her head and said.
It seems that there is no one in this courtyard, Feng Ranran sighed a little frustratedly, and thought in her heart that it would be better for Yanqing to come out tomorrow and come to see it again with Yanqing, and when she turned around, she saw a woman not far away wearing a gray and blue short shirt, black pants, a pair of cloth shoes, and a pair of sleeves on her sleeves, sitting on a chair, holding wool in her hand, basking in the sun, knitting a sweater, Feng Ranran's eyes turned and walked forward.
"Eldest sister, can I ask you something?"
The middle-aged woman who was knitting a sweater under the sun raised her head and looked Feng Ranran up and down, no wonder the woman was curious about Feng Ranran's dress, after all, in this small city, there are cheongsams and cotton clothes, and there are only a few styles, this type of skirt has never been seen, although I have never seen it, but I have heard of it, and I immediately judged that Feng Ranran should be a girl from a rich family, and grinned, "What does the girl want to ask?"
Feng Ranran looked at the woman's smile, as if she understood something, and turned her head slightly to look at Xiao Man, Xiao Man hurriedly took out three taels of silver from her purse and handed it to Feng Ranran, Feng Ranran took the silver and handed it to the woman, and said, "Eldest sister, is this embroidering a sweater? I just want to ask where this family has gone? Have you been busy lately?"
The woman took the silver, stuffed it into her sleeve, and continued to embroider her sweater as if nothing happened, "You said Ding Sanniang, she is an old woman who can't get married, she works as a matchmaker for others every day, but she can't marry herself, oh, she doesn't seem to be in good shape, she always cooks medicine in the yard, Ou Yo, you don't know the smell, it's all floating to our house, but it smells bad, it's really annoying." ”
Feng Ranran originally just wanted to ask Ding Sanniang what she was busy with recently, but she didn't expect to hear a series of complaints from this woman first, her face stiffened a little, the woman didn't look at Feng Ranran's face, and she didn't know the changes in Feng Ranran's face, and continued to say unconsciously, "People in their thirties, they dress like a little girl every day, and they don't know what to do, and they don't serve people, what do you pretend." ”
Feng Ranran's face turned cold and coughed, "Eldest sister, I just want to ask what Ding Sanniang has been busy with recently?"
The woman heard Feng Ranran's voice cold, probably a little unhappy, and pursed her lips, "How do I know this, it seems that she was not in good health a few days ago, she went out, and she hasn't come back for several days, I don't know where she went." ”
Feng Ranran didn't expect Ding Sanniang to stay at home for so long, and frowned slightly, "How many days? Can you give me an approximate time?"
"Days?" the woman's hand to knit the sweater stopped, stretched out her fingers to buckle her chin, and frowned, as if she was trying to recall, "It seems that I didn't come back in the middle of this month." ”
If you start in the middle of this month, it should be the day when you send your brother to leave by boat in Jia County, it has been five days, and she has not returned home for five days, even if she goes to other homes to help, it is impossible for so long, not to mention that the situation is unstable today, most people are nested in their own houses, and there are no more people to visit relatives, where can Ding Sanniang go? Feng Ranran frowned puzzled, Fang Yanqing has a good relationship with Ding Sanniang, if she let Yanqing know that Sanniang doesn't know where to go, she must be very worried.
"I see, thank you, big sister. Feng Ranran said politely, ready to turn around and leave.
"Hey, that..." The eldest sister behind her suddenly spoke, Feng Ranran heard the voice and turned her head to look, "Is there something wrong with that family?"
Looking at this woman's curious look, Feng Ranran suddenly felt a little tired, she really didn't know what these women thought, it seemed that she knew a great gossip mind, why she was so idle to inquire about other people's affairs, Feng Ranran pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "It's okay, I just want to find someone, so I came to ask." After speaking, he walked with Xiaoman to the Wei Mansion.
"Girl, most of the people here are like that. Xiao Man looked at Feng Ranran and pouted, and knew that Feng Ranran was a little unhappy, and said softly, "The women here don't have any entertainment activities, like Mrs. Kuo can also play mahjong and go to listen to the drama together, these ordinary women are washing and cooking at home every day to serve men, and they don't have any money to squander for entertainment, so don't you just talk?"
"Then she can't talk nonsense, you didn't hear it just now, what she said is really..."Feng Ranran grinded her teeth and said a little angrily, "It's really excessive, there are so many people behind this, people can wear it how they want, and... I still think about people like this..."Feng Ranran was a little angry, and she couldn't think of any dirty words to scold people, she flipped through the adjectives in her mind for a long time, and couldn't choose an appropriate one, so she had to grind her teeth in the end, and everything was silent.
"I know, girl, don't be angry," Xiao Man patted Feng Ranran's back and comforted softly, "You have to think about it, the women in this small city, she grew up seeing these things, and many things are incomprehensible in their eyes, just... For example, free love, this is incomprehensible. ”
"I know they can't understand this," Feng Ranran pursed her lips and sighed, "Hey, if everyone has knowledge and can distinguish between right and wrong, they're... It would be nice to understand each other and respect each other. ”
"Girl, they don't understand what you're saying. ”
"I know, so I said it would be nice if it were!" Feng Ranran was a little furious, and after roaring, she suddenly felt that the depression she had received at the eldest sister's place just now dissipated a little, and shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know where Sanniang went, I'll go back and ask Xu's mother later, I heard that she has a good relationship with Sanniang." ”
