Chapter 20: The eldest sister is waiting for me

Xuan Miao'er hurriedly hid behind the wall, fortunately, the two sisters had an awkward quarrel, and no one noticed her, she also knew in her heart, she was framed this time and there were so many hidden secrets, it was related to Xuan Meng'er of the third uncle's family?

It's just a pity that they didn't understand too much, they were framed and their reputation was ruined, what good is it for them? I can't figure it out for a while, but let's go to the thatched house first, there will always be clues to this matter, anyway, just keep an eye on it.

After breakfast the next day, Old Man Xuan went to the town in a carriage with the third uncle Xuan Wencheng's family.

Today's sky is gray, and there has been a little rain, so there is no farm work to go out to do, and it is rare to be idle.

Sitting on the kang, Xuan Miao'er suddenly remembered her eldest sister, but she hadn't seen it, so she asked Xuan Anhao in a low voice: "Brother, is the eldest sister married far away?"

She likes to ask Xuan Anhao everything, Xuan Anrui is older, and she has reservations about some things, Xuan Anhao is still young, and she trusts Xuan Miaoer, so she asks what to say.

"Not far away, in Hebei Village, walk for half an hour. Xuan Anhao whispered to Xuan Miao'er.

The sister and brother have been on the kang all the time, and their voices are quiet, and others have not paid attention to them, because the sister and brother have always been very tight.

"Then why doesn't the eldest sister come back often?" asked Xuan Miao'er.

"It's someone else's who gets married, not to mention that the Zhang family is equivalent to buying, how can you let the eldest sister go back to her parents' house, and then say that if you want to eat again, your grandmother will scold you again. After Xuan Anhao finished speaking, his little face tightened, and he could see that Xuan Ling'er had also suffered a lot of anger when he came back before.

Xuan Miao'er lowered her voice: "You take me to take a sneak look at the eldest sister." ”

Xuan Anhao thought for a while before nodding: "Okay." "It seems like a lot of determination.

The sister and brother wore shoes, and the rain was not heavy, and one ran out with a straw curtain, and the child was not expensive at this time, so the sister and brother ran out, and the adults thought they were going out to play, and no one paid too much attention.

The two of them ran fast, and after a while, they arrived in Hebei Village, and Xuan Miaoer took out more than ten copper plates from her arms: "Brother, let's buy some food for the eldest sister." ”

Xuan Anhao hurriedly objected: "No, we can only peek and can't go in, otherwise the eldest sister will not have a good life here, and my mother will scold us if she finds out." ”

Xuan Miaoer really didn't understand, the cheap brother-in-law was paralyzed, how could she not let the eldest sister feel better: "Let's buy it, the eldest sister comes out alone, let's steal it for her, if it doesn't come out, we'll eat it ourselves." ”

"That's okay, let's talk about it, let's see and go back. Xuan Anhao's expression was very nervous, which made Xuan Miao'er uncomfortable.

There is a grocery store at the head of each village, very small, selling some things that are urgently needed in life, and there are also some children's chews, the sister and brother went in to look around, there is really nothing to buy for the eldest sister, and finally Xuan Miaoer bought a handful of candy cubes, she thinks that when people are hungry, eating a piece of candy can have a little strength.

The two sisters and brothers ran to Xuan Ling'er's house with the straw curtain again, and when they arrived outside a stone wall, Xuan Anhao stopped: "That's it, let's take a look at the eldest sister here and go back." ”

Xuan Miao'er looked at Xuan Anhao's appearance, it shouldn't be the first time she came to peek: "Hmm." ”

It's raining, there is no one on the road, the sister and brother are draped in straw curtains, no one really pays attention to them, the yard is not big, but it is also a brick house, and the courtyard wall is only ten steps away from the window, so you can hear the conversation inside.

After a while, I heard an angry rebuke in the room: "Xuan Ling'er, you little cheap hoof, let you wipe your body, what are you thinking about? ”

"Mother, bring me the whip, this slut dislikes me, she doesn't serve me well, I can't beat her to death. A man's voice came out.

Then there was the sound of whipping, and some women snorted twice, but the sound was not loud, and it could be heard that she was patient.

After coming for a while, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old woman came out of the room, although her clothes were shabby, but she couldn't hide her delicate face, she was definitely a beauty embryo, but she was too thin, and this dress was on her, as if she was about to fall off.

As soon as the woman went out, she looked at the wall, maybe it was a blood relationship, she seemed to know that someone in the family was peeking at her again, she smiled at the courtyard wall, and seemed to tell the people on this side that she was fine.

Such a woman, such a heart, Xuan Miaoer's eyes were moist, she really wanted to rush out and call the eldest sister, even if it was to give her a warm embrace.

Xuan Anhao beside him pulled Xuan Miao'er deadly: "You can't do anything when you go out, you are seen by his family, and the eldest sister will be beaten again." ”

Xuan Miao'er pursed her eyes with her sleeve, then took out the bag of candy cubes, made a gesture to Xuan Ling'er, put the candy in the crack of the wall, and ran away without looking back.

She didn't have the courage to look back at the eldest sister's eyes, the woman was so helpless, she vowed to take the eldest sister back as much as possible.

The two sisters and brothers ran out of the village before stopping, and when the rain fell heavier, Xuan Miaoer and Xuan Anhao hugged each other and cried bitterly.

After crying enough, the two went home.

"Brother, within half a year, I will definitely pick up the eldest sister, no, I will take the eldest sister back before the Chinese New Year. Xuan Miaoer had all kinds of calculations in her heart at this time, how to divide the family, how to make money.

"Let's work more, the eldest sister is also very capable of working when she is at home, but the grandmother is too bad. Xuan Anhao stepped on the puddle with one foot, making a splash, and the uppers of the two sisters and brothers were covered with muddy water.

"Don't worry, with me, there is no unbeatable cut in our family, and I will definitely be able to pick it up before the eldest sister. "Xuan Miaoer has made up her mind, it really can't be done, you can go to Hua Dashao, the other party still appreciates her skills, sell him a painting, it costs twenty taels, it should be possible.

But this is a decision, that is, if you haven't scraped together enough money during the Chinese New Year, then you can only sell paintings, but there are still many months left, and I still have time to plan.

She doesn't want to use this last resort, once she sells her paintings, her identity will be suspected, and she has no backing now, so it is easy to be targeted.

When they arrived at the entrance of Hewan Village, Xuan Anhao looked at the upper shoes of the two: "Hey, we will inevitably be scolded when we go home." ”

"Whoever makes you angry and step on a puddle will be scolded. ”

As soon as the sister and brother entered the door, they heard the loud voice of the fourth aunt Wang: "Yo~~~ Where did these two mud monkeys come from, whose girl is so old, and she goes out to play in the mud, it's really unbelievable." Our Saburo is going to school, and it's really different from you mud legs. ”

Xuan Miao'er only then heard the focus of the fourth aunt Wang's words, this is to show off, but Xuan Miao'er is more concerned about the family has to spend another amount of money, San Lang Xuan Anben, who is a thief and a rat-eyed, can only steal chickens and touch dogs, and will also go to private school?

Xuan Anhao listened to Wang's words, his eyes turned red, and he snorted and ran back to the west wing.

Xuan Miaoer understood in her heart, this is her younger brother also wants to go to a private school, it is true that these children in her family are literate and talented, but they don't have the opportunity to enter a private school, and she is too lazy to talk to the Wang family, doesn't she want to show off her son, she doesn't give her a chance, and Xuan Miaoer also turned around and went back to the West Chamber.
