Chapter 19: I didn't borrow any money
Liu Hong's eyes were watery, and she said to Liu Guo pitifully: "My aunt refused to borrow money, saying that we couldn't pay it back at all." She also said that if I can marry Li Gen'er, it will also be my creation. In the future, our family will be able to enjoy happiness. ”
Liu Hong leaned on her sister's thin shoulder and cried, Liu Guo patted her back and comforted: "Eldest sister, don't be afraid, there is still me." Li Guifen promised me today that we can refund half of the bride price. The remaining half of the bride price should be paid within a month. ”
Liu Hong was extremely pessimistic, shook her head and said desperately: "We can't afford to pay back half of it." I really can't do it, I'll just get married. In the future, you will serve our mother with the second child. Liu Hong wiped her tears: "Li Gen'er is not only stupid, but he is still very good." ”
Liu Guo gritted his teeth: "What's good? He doesn't look good, his family has no money, and his brain is not good." It's clear that it's a fire pit, and my eldest sister is beautiful and good-natured. You deserve to be better, and I won't let you marry him. ”
Jian Yihong has always been regarded as air by the two sisters, and he wanted to leave when he saw the excitement that the two said. But before leaving, he felt that he should still say hello to Liu Guo, so that it could be considered polite. But Liu Guo spoke too fast, and he couldn't insert it at all.
After shaking his spirit, the rabbit in his arms broke free from his confinement and jumped down.
"Hey, bunny, bunny. Jian Yihong interrupted the two sisters with an exclamation, and Liu Guo twisted a few steps forward and reached out to grab the rabbit in his hand.
"Little rabbit, when it comes to the meat in my mouth, do you still want to run?" Liu Guo squinted at Jian Yihong: "You can't even hold a rabbit, what else can you do?"
Only then did Liu Hong notice that there was a man standing there in the night, when she found out that it was Jian Yihong. Liu Hong felt uncomfortable, she lowered her head and pursed her lips and reached out to collect her bangs.
whispered to Jian Yihong: "Jane, Teacher Jian." ”
"Hey, hello. Jian Yihong smiled at her and said to Liu Guo: "I'm afraid of strangling her, so I don't dare to grab it hard." ”
Liu Guo looked down at the rabbit, a little hesitant to give it to Jian Yihong. Jian Yihong saw Liu Guo licking her lips through the light reflected from the snow on the ground, and knew that the rabbit would inevitably be eaten in her hands.
Hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the rabbit: "It's not early, I'm going home." Come in, too, it's so cold outside. ”
"Hey, rabbit, will you do it? Or I'll fight another one tomorrow, and the two of them will be roasted and eaten together?" Liu Guo shouted at Jian Yihong's back, and Jian Yihong was so frightened that his steps were faster.
I only heard Jian Yihong's eager refusal in the night: "This rabbit is too thin, when I am fattened, you can eat it again." ”
Liu Guo shrugged his shoulders and turned around with a smile. When I raised my eyes, I saw my eldest sister Liu Hong looking at the direction that Jian Yihong left. She couldn't help but ask, "Eldest sister, it's so cold outside, why are you in a daze?"
Liu Hong replied, "Why did you come back with Teacher Jian?"
Liu Guo was difficult to explain clearly for a while, and pulled Liu Guo into the house. Briefly recounted to her what happened during the day.
"You helped Li Guifen find the cow, so you gave us half of the bride price?" Under the faint kerosene lamp in the house, Dong Fang listened to the two daughters while holding her shoes.
Hearing that Li Guifen promised to reduce half of the bride price, Dong Fang was as happy as something.
"But with half of the money left, where can we get it?" Liu Ping lay on the kang worriedly.
Dong Fang put away the last stitch, put the white thread between the teeth, and gently bit off the thread. His fingers were knotted, and then he whispered, "I'll go to your uncle's house tomorrow." ”
"Mom!" Liu Hong frowned: "Forget it, my aunt said it today." As long as my uncle lent us money, she would take her cousin back to her parents' house and never talk to my uncle again. ”
