During the period, in order to express his gratitude, Mo Fengshou took out the liquor roasted during the New Year and toasted Geng Hao with two glasses of wine. Geng Hao was hindered by his seniority, and returned two glasses of wine. Mo Fengshou saw that Geng Hao seemed to be able to drink, so he fooled him into drinking two glasses, Geng Hao was helpless, and said that he would not drink anything after eight glasses of wine, saying that he would go to Teacher Liu's house for dinner in the evening, and it was not good to go dizzily. Mo Fengshou accepted this reason and began to chat with him. Originally, he was going to teach Mo Yuancheng to read and write, but it turned out to be chatting with Mo Fengshou. It wasn't until Geng Hao saw that the time was not early, and Mo Fengshou let him go.

Geng Hao came down from the mountain, and he didn't have time to go back to the village committee to rest for an hour or two, so he went directly to Zhong Xiu's house. Liu Jia said that she didn't know where her home was, so she asked Zhong Xiu's family. Geng Hao left Zhong Xiu in the village committee for a few hours last night because of the matter of recording and printing the transcript, and waited until the evening to send her back. When I went to Zhong Xiu's house a few times, I already knew the meaning of familiarity, and when I saw Zhong Ling in the yard, I called "sister". Zhong Ling was overjoyed when he saw Geng Hao, thinking that he was here to find Zhong Xiu, and directly said that Zhong Xiu was still busy with the affairs of the village and did not return.

Geng Hao hurriedly explained his intention, he wanted to find Liu Jia's home, Zhong Ling suddenly called Huang Jiujiu to lead the way. As soon as Huang Jiujiu saw Geng Hao, it was like seeing a plague god, his eyes were full of fear and wanted to dodge, and he complained a little, but he was stopped by Zhong Ling's roar, and obediently took Geng Hao to Liu Jia's house.

Regarding Huang Jiujiu's performance, Geng Hao expressed his understanding and did not mind at all. Last night, Zhong Xiu's face sank when he saw Huang Jiujiu's results, and Geng Hao felt bad at that time, and was faintly worried about Huang Jiujiu, both apologetic and helpless. Who let Zhong Xiu be her aunt? Who let Geng Hao only look for her aunt when he needed help from the village committee?

Geng Hao touched his conscience and swore that he saw Zhong Xiu's face wrong last night, and he also said good things. said that although Huang Jiujiu's score did not score 100 points, he was 87 in Chinese and 90 in mathematics, which was already very good. In Geng Hao's heart, this is really good, he didn't deliberately protect Huang Jiujiu. But Zhong Xiu pointed to the ranking list and said that five of the twelve people ranked fifth, five of them were usually not good at studying, and Huang Jiujiu's score was at most middle and low. Geng Hao had nothing to say at that time.

It is conceivable that last night, Huang Jiujiu must have not been able to sleep well.

As soon as you go out from the back door of Zhong's house, you will find Liu Jia's house, and it is really close. Huang Jiujiu gave him directions, turned around and went home full of depression. Geng Hao took a deep breath tiredly. He really can't protect Huang Jiujiu, Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu's requirements for her are really high. Walking step by step to Liu Jia's house, I found that Principal Huang and Wang Dahua were there, they were sitting in the shade at the door with Liu Jia's father chatting, and Liu Jia was helping to cook in the kitchen.

As soon as Geng Hao left, several big men smelled a strong smell of wine. Geng Hao scratched his head very embarrassedly, saying that he had a drink with Mo Yuancheng's brother's father at noon. Principal Huang and Wang Dahua both said that they should drink it, and also said that at the wine table for a while, Geng Hao would have to drink some more, and Geng Hao couldn't refuse tactfully.

Today is the venue of Liu Jia's group, and under the leadership of Liu Jia, everyone has passed a circle of wine. Liu Jia looked weak and introverted, but he could drink very much, and it was nothing to salute him for a while. Talking at the dinner table, Geng Hao just listened silently, and when he mentioned him, he answered twice. But Geng Hao found that Liu Jia frowned melancholy every time he saw him, with a slightly drunken sense of alcohol, just like Lin Daiyu's grievances. Geng Hao thought about it and didn't know where to provoke her. It wasn't until Father Liu chatted with Principal Huang later, recalling that Liu Jia grew up in adulthood, that Geng Hao probably understood something.

"Jiajia has been smart and diligent since she was a child, and she is still a good material for reading. But at that time, her family was poor and couldn't afford her to go to high school, otherwise, she would definitely be the second college student in our village. Because in front of Geng Hao, Liu's father used non-standard Mandarin, looked back at Geng Hao with a red face, and pointed, "A college student like you may also be a famous brand." ”

"Dad, you're drunk. Liu Jia pulled Liu's father's clothes, and also anxiously grabbed Liu's mother, wanting Liu's mother to persuade her, but her eyes fell on Geng Hao uneasily.

Geng Hao knew that Father Liu was drunk, so he was silent and didn't speak, but just smiled lightly and echoed, and secretly looked at Liu Jia with his eyes. It turns out that Liu Jia also has a college dream, no wonder Liu Jia's expression is different from the first time he sees him. At that time, Liu Jia saw herself with the label of a famous university student, probably thinking of her college dream. That weird gaze, that's probably it.

Father Liu ignored the persuasion of his wife and daughter, continued to rely on Principal Huang, and burped and said, "Principal Huang, do you say?"

"Yes. Liu Jia is smart, you gave birth to a good daughter. "Principal Huang didn't drink much because he was old, so he had to be more sober, and he helped Liu's father smile kindly.

"A good daughter is going to be someone else's family. Father Liu said, wiped his face with his hand, exhaled the tears and snot that were about to flow, and leaned on Principal Huang like a scoundrel, "Not long after, my daughter will get married, and I will be such a daughter." I still have to marry in the county seat. ”

"Dad, if you say it again, I won't get married, and I'll stay at home with you and Mom. Liu Jia saw that he was endless, and threatened a little helplessly and a little tiredly. The corners of his eyes have long been red.

As soon as Father Liu heard this, he immediately stopped doing it, sat up urgently, and pointed sideways at Liu Jiayu: "This wedding date has been set, can you say that if you don't marry, you won't marry?

Father Liu is really drunk, he can't talk well, and his temper is very short-tempered. Everyone else frowned and looked at him, feeling very sorry for Liu Jia. Anyone can hear that Liu Jia is clearly a joke, just to deal with Liu's father's words of reluctance to give up his daughter. But Liu Jia has drunk now, and her temper and courage have come up, seeing that her father is a little bit, and she is still unreasonable, and all of a sudden, all kinds of grievances are surging up wildly along the strength of the wine, and they are about to squirt out of her mouth. Liu Jia immediately blushed and blushed, and quarreled with Liu's father angrily.

"Where do I play with my child's temper? If you let me go on a blind date, I will get married, and if you say that the man wants me to marry, I will listen to your marriage. I've always listened to you, and now you're saying I'm a kid with my temper. ”

"Oh, now you say that we forced you, aren't we all for your good?" Father Liu argued back without showing any weakness.

Mother Liu fought straight between their father and daughter: "Okay, okay, don't make any noise, there are still guests, what does it look like?"

"I'm not afraid of being embarrassed,...... "Liu's father is addicted to arguing, no matter who tries to persuade him, Liu Jia has already cried. As an elder, Principal Huang couldn't watch it, so he could only help persuade Father Liu, "Jiajia is just joking, because I am afraid that you will feel sorry for your daughter, and you will not be willing to do it." If what you said just now isn't true, you shouldn't quarrel with her. ”

Liu's mother also persuaded Liu Jia, helped her wipe her tears and said: "Your father is this virtue, he talks nonsense when he drinks, don't fight with him, what's there to fight about?"

Geng Hao sat in place, stunned, not suitable for meddle anywhere. Wang Dahua seems to have gotten used to it, but he just sits in a proper manner.

"Is she joking? Just said that we forced her to marry!" Liu's father struggled to beg for reason.

Liu Jia also quarreled back with tears in her eyes: "Why not? I want to teach, I want to study, I don't want to get married so early,......"

"See? That's what this unfilial piety means!" Liu's father grabbed the evidence and became even more powerful, pointed at Liu Jia and continued, "If you get married, who can stop you if you want to read? You are so old, if you don't marry, you don't expect your family to support you? How much money can you earn by teaching?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Dahua and Geng Hao glanced at each other invariably, feeling inexplicable. Principal Huang's face also showed a subtle tangled. Mother Liu knew that he had offended a table with his words, so she quickly slapped Father Liu's back and shouted at the highest volume: "Ouch! Old Liu, don't say it! What are you talking about when you are drunk? The girl didn't say that she wouldn't get married, what are you angry about?"

The volume of this roar is also soft and deterrent. Geng Hao knows that Liu Jia's temper follows his mother, a standard farmer and obedient girl, but in his bones he follows his father, and once it breaks out, the quarrel is really powerful. Liu's mother wanted to persuade peace, but Liu Jia did not cooperate, and said angrily: "Who said I didn't say it? I will say now, if I don't marry, I won't marry!"

"You!"

Liu's father stood up and waved his hand to slap it, Liu Jia was so frightened that he subconsciously hid back, and Liu's mother reflexively blocked in front of her daughter. Geng Hao and Wang Dahua's eyes widened in surprise. Fortunately, Principal Huang was quick to catch Liu's father's arm, and almost stumbled and fell to the ground. He was still angry and said, "Oh, I said Xiao Liu, what are you doing?

"Don't stop me, I have to pack up this unfilial girl today!"

"What kind of service, if you dare to hit her, hit me first!" Mother Liu stopped in front of Liu Jia and glared at Liu's father angrily, and Liu's father was immediately speechless, staring at Liu's mother anxious and annoyed. Mother Liu took advantage of this opportunity and hurriedly said, "Jiajia, you go to Xiuxiu for a while." Seeing that Liu Jia was just crying stubbornly, he just didn't move, he looked around, and he could only find Geng Hao, "Teacher Geng, help send Jiajia to Xiuxiu." ”

Geng Hao was ordered to be in danger and hurriedly moved. In this situation, the more they look at it, the more angry they become, and they will only get more and more noisy, so they should calm each other down. Geng Hao went up, but it was not easy to get started, so he could only persuade him with words: "Let's go, let your father calm and calm, and you will also be calm and calm." ”

At this time, it is not easy to persuade acquaintances, only Geng Hao, an unfamiliar person from the village, will let people give some thin noodles. It's already ugly enough tonight, Geng Hao persuaded him, Liu Jia's mind cleared up, and he found that it was very embarrassing, so he quickly wiped his tears and followed Geng Hao out. I really don't want to see Liu's father's annoying drunken face.
