Dongxiang Ancient Village (novella love story) Zhang Baotong

It's finally time for the day to sing and sit down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info This day is also called the Wedding Day, which is the big day for the engagement of the brothers and sisters who love each other. Although the elder brother and sister have long been tacitly in love with each other, they must be married and lovers on this day through a certain form and start a life of trial marriage and cohabitation.

On this day, Wen Li got up very early and sat alone in the middle of the hall early. Grandma got up early because she was going to go to the ground, and when she saw Wen Li sitting in the hall in a daze, she was so surprised, combing her hair, and asking, "Why are you sitting here so early?" Wen Li said straightly, "Grandma, I have a good brother." ”

Grandma smiled happily and said, "Okay, which descendant brother in the village is it?" Wen Li said, "He is not in our village, he is in Guilin." Grandma pondered and asked, "Where is Guilin?" Wen Li said, "It's in the big city of Guilin." When Grandma heard this, her face immediately changed greatly, and she said, "If you don't look for the elder brother in this village, what are you looking for Han people in the big city of Guilin, don't you want to break the customs and rules of our Dong family?"

Wen Li not only didn't listen to Grandma's words, but asked Grandma, "Isn't Abba also a Han Chinese? Isn't Grandma's finding Abba also breaking the customs and rules of the Dong family?" When Grandma heard this, she was even more furious, slapped the table, and shouted, "I don't allow you to find a Han brother." I'm having enough trouble looking for you, Abba. So saying, he knocked on the door of his grandmother's house. Grandma shouted, "What's the matter, it's so urgent, I'm afraid that there are no dead, right?" Grandma shouted, "Your granddaughter has found a Han brother, what can you do?" So saying, he picked up his hoe and went out.

After a while, my grandmother hurriedly walked out of the house while lifting her pants, and when she saw Wen Li, she said, "Ali, look what you have made your grandma angry." Seeing that you are usually obedient and obedient, how can you learn to be disobedient?" Wen Li said, "I am not disobedient, but I like that Guilin tour guide Brother Xu, and he also likes me, that's all." ”

Grandma sat on the small stool next to her and said to Wen Li, "Ali, you are the heart and soul of me and your grandma, and your grandma and I love you the most." If you want to say anything else, your grandma and I will follow you, but if you find a big thing like your brother, your grandma and I will make decisions for you. Then, my grandmother said, "I'm not saying that the Han people are bad, but their personalities and habits are different from our Dong family, and they will have trouble living together for a long time." Not to mention anything else, your father grew up with us since he was a child, but after all, he is a Han Chinese, and there are still some places where he can't live with us. Therefore, your grandma and I will not agree with you to find a Han brother. ”

Wen Li didn't like that her grandmother and grandmother were prejudiced against Abba, so she said, "What's wrong with my Abba? What's wrong with him? Doesn't he just like to play pai gow, and he is not the only one in the village who is playing cards." Grandma didn't expect Wen Li to be so stubborn, and she didn't listen to persuasion, so she couldn't help but start a fire, saying, "Why are you like your father, don't listen to persuasion for anything?" ”

Wen Li knew that it was useless to say anything, so she went out angrily without eating breakfast. She went out and sat alone under the pergola. The air after autumn is already a little cool, and there is some dew on the bamboo benches. But Wenli just sat on the bamboo bench, feeling so annoyed. After a while, some of the old men and women who went down to the ground took hoes, and some led buffaloes to pass by in front of the pergola, and when they saw Wen Li sitting on the pergola so early, they asked with concern, but Wen Li lowered her head, pouted, and did not say a word or answer. When everyone saw her like this, they knew that she was angry, so they hurriedly walked by.

Soon, the sisters also began to come to work under the pergola. Seeing Wen Li like this, they were very sympathetic, but there was nothing they could do. Seeing that Brother Xu was coming, Yuhua was so anxious that she had to take Yuxiu and Gina to find Wenli's grandmother to say good things. However, within half an hour, they returned dejected.

This made Wen Li's heart even more tormented. She thought about it for a while, and then said to Yuhua, "No, you can call him and ask him not to come first." But Yuhua shook her head and said, "Everyone is ready for everything, and it's almost here at this time, how can you say that people don't come." Besides, today is the wedding festival again, and this day can't be missed. ”

Wen Li felt that Yuhua was reasonable, so she said, "But, grandma doesn't agree, what should I do if I let people come?" Maybe grandma will make people ugly again, where will this make my face go?" Yuhua said, "Our Dong family has always been hospitable, and we will not give guests ugly." Even if your grandmother and your grandmother disagree, they will explain the truth to others. ”

As he was talking, Brother Xu drove a brand-new car to the front of the pergola, and as soon as he got out of the car, he greeted the sisters with a smile, but what he saw was the frowning faces of the sisters, so he scratched his scalp and said, "What's the matter? You don't seem to welcome me?" Yuhua said, "It's not that we don't welcome it, it's that Wenli's grandmother and grandmother don't agree with her looking for a Han brother." ”

Brother Xu was stunned for a moment and said, "What's wrong with our Han brother? There is no shortage of noses and mouths, why is she not waiting to be seen?" Gina said, "I think you Han brother is heartfelt, women love more, marry more, and leave more." I don't know when I dump our sister. Brother Xu couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "How can this happen?" and then said, "Otherwise, I'll visit them first and explain it to them." ”

Wen Li immediately stopped and said, "No, they are angry now, you go, it's not good." Brother Xu said, "What should I do then?" Wen Li said, "I can't help it, I can only wait and see." Brother Xu said, "I brought some gifts, can you send these gifts first?" Yuhua said, "If you want to send them, you have to send someone to send them, you can't send them." Brother Xu said, "Then who should be sent to deliver it?" Yuhua said, "It's better to send an elderly uncle." Gina immediately said, "Then send the old branch secretary." He is not only responsible for the tourism work of our village, but also has been to many places and has a wide range of knowledge. When Brother Xu heard this, he said, "Then I'll visit him now, okay?" Gina said, "Okay." With that, Brother Xu took out a cigarette and a bag of bananas from the car and followed Gina to the secretary's house.

However, when Brother Xu returned to the pergola from the secretary's house, he did not show any joy. Yuhua asked, "What?" Brother Xu said, "The old man said that he could help with other favors, but he couldn't help with this favor." So, he could only help me send the gifts, but it was difficult to persuade me. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and was speechless for a while. Seeing Wen Li's sad face, Brother Xu took her hand and said, "It's really not good, you just come with me, and after a while, they will come to you themselves." Ke Wenli shook her head and said, "No, it will make them sad." They are my elders, and they love me so much, I can't bear to make them sad. ”

Brother Xu frowned and said, "What if they insist on disagreeing?" Wen Li held Brother Xu's hand tightly and said, "If they don't agree, I won't go downstairs and eat." As soon as Brother Xu heard this, he hugged Wen Li tightly in his arms and said, "My dear sister. Wen Li put her face in Brother Xu's arms, and said emotionally while crying, "As long as you don't deceive me, don't dump me halfway." Brother Xu said with a whimper in his throat, "I swear to God, I will love you for the rest of my life and will never let you be wronged." Wen Li nodded and said, "I believe in you, and I am willing to give me to you." ”

In order to express his oath, Brother Xu took out a diamond ring and put it on Wen Li, but Wen Li pushed his hand and said, "Don't worry, it's not time yet." Both of them burst into tears and laughed again.

At noon, the sisters went home for dinner. Wen Li refused to go home, so she had to sit in the pergola with Brother Xu and talk. At this time, Abba came over and asked Wen Li to come home for dinner. Wen Li said to Abba, "Abba, he is Brother Xu, a Guilin tour guide who often comes to our village. Abba took Brother Xu's hand tightly and said, "Let's go, go home and eat." ”

However, Wen Li knew that what Abba said would not work, because neither his grandmother nor his grandmother agreed, and he could not bring others home for dinner. Therefore, Wen Li made a very stubborn appearance and said to Abba, "Grandma and Grandma don't agree, so I won't go back to eat." Abba looked a little embarrassed and said, "But you haven't eaten in the morning." Wen Li still said, "As long as my grandmother and grandma don't agree, I won't eat all the time." Abba had no choice but to go back by himself.

It was earlier than usual that night, and before it was dark, the young people of the village were returning home from the fields to prepare for an early meal, to dress up, and to participate in the wedding festival of the evening singing and sitting sisters. Because Wen Li was going home to prepare, she handed over Brother Xu to Yuhua and asked her to take him to her house for dinner.

When Wen Li came home, her grandmother was washing her feet in the hall, and when she saw Wen Li coming back, she said with a smile on her face, "My Ali, are you back?" When he returned to his room, he lay down on the bed and sighed vigorously. After a while, my grandmother shouted downstairs, "Ali, let's go downstairs for dinner." Wen Li lay on the bed and didn't move, only replied, "Don't eat." Grandma couldn't help it, so she said, "This girl is really bad." ”

It soon got dark, and you could hear the singing and laughter on the other side of the house and the singing of the brothers and sisters. At this time, Yuhua, Gina and other sisters entered the hall and called Wenli. Wen Li got up from the bed lazily, simply put on makeup, and went downstairs. Seeing Wen Li go downstairs, Grandma said, "Ali, let's go after dinner." Ke Wenli also said "don't eat", and went out with the sisters.
