Chapter 5 Gossip

The people who came were Jin Dazhong, Jing Sheng and Su Jinchen. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info It was Jingsheng who spoke.

"Su Gongzi, why are you here?" Zhang hurriedly greeted him, and glanced at Jin Dazhong with some reproach, "His father, didn't you go to visit Su Gongzi? Why did you still see people at home, you should rest more if you were frightened yesterday." "

"It's okay, there was nothing wrong with yesterday. It just so happened that Uncle Jin and Jingsheng came over today, so they came over together, and by the way, they took a look at the peach blossoms. Su Jinchen put one hand behind his back and looked at Peach Blossom as he spoke.

Peach Blossom stepped forward, lowered her head slightly, and said, "Thank you for your concern, I am already well." "

"Alright, don't stand here, sit in the house. Kim Dae-chung greeted.

"Yes, yes, Su Gongzi will sit in the house. Pear Blossom, go boil water and make tea for Su Gongzi. Zhang instructed Pear Blossom. Peach Blossom was also busy with her to help.

Walking into the kitchen, Pear Blossom hurriedly lit a fire, and Peach Blossom added water to the pot.

"Second sister, does Gongzi Su have a good relationship with the eldest brother?" asked Peach Blossom. Take three bowls out of the cupboard, wash them in a basin of water, wipe them with a cotton cloth and put them on the stovetop for later use.

"Well, it's not bad. The eldest brother is the same age as Su Gongzi, so it may be easier to talk. In the past, Su Gongzi often came to teach his eldest brother to read. Rika said, adding a few more sticks of firewood to the stove.

Peach Blossom suddenly squatted in front of Pear Blossom with some gossip, and asked mysteriously: "Master Su looks very good, does the second sister like him?"

"What?" Pear Blossom's eyes widened in surprise, looking at Peach Blossom's curious appearance, she couldn't help but smile and shook her head: "Silly sister, how can a character like Su Gongzi marry us Zhuang women, the village chief will definitely find him a lady who can read and break words, and we," Pear Blossom looked at the prosperous fire burning in front of her, and said with some distraction: "Our future is also doomed." "

"Doomed to what?" asked Peach Blossom.

"Hehe, why do you ask so much at a young age. Rika winked at Peach Blossom and smiled strangely.

"Oh, where did the second sister go? I'll just ask casually. Peach Blossom stomped her feet and stood up, saw the heat rising in the pot, and called, "The water is boiling, let's quickly bring the tea." "

When the peach blossom sisters brought the tea bowl soaked in dried chrysanthemums, several people sitting in the main room were talking lively. Peach Blossom put down the tea bowl and went out. Before leaving, Peach Blossom glanced back, and it happened that Su Jinchen also looked over, the smile on his face had not been put away, the slightly raised eyebrows, and the upturned corners of his mouth all showed the good temper of the master, and a pair of eyes were starry. What a rare beautiful man. Peach Blossom couldn't help but smile.

Back in the room, Pear Blossom picked up the embroidery and sat on the windowsill to embroider, the long silk thread shuttled between her white palms, and the peach blossoms bloomed on the embroidered handkerchief, and she was afraid that she would attract butterflies to settle on it. Peach Blossom was fascinated, no wonder the eldest mother and second mother wanted to take it.

"I don't know when I'll have the craft. Peach Blossom sighed.

"Take your time, just embroider with your heart, you're not too young, it's time to learn. Rika smiled shallowly.

Peach Blossom was startled, "I don't want to learn it, I'll just take a look." "

"Then how can I do it, every woman has to learn female red, otherwise she will be laughed at when she goes to her mother-in-law's house in the future. Pear Blossom said solemnly, and picked out a simple pattern and handed it to Peach Blossom, "Come, I'll teach you." "

Peach Blossom looked at the embroidered handkerchief in front of her and her eyes widened, and after her eyes purred a few times, she said as if surprised: "Oh, it's almost noon, why hasn't Mingsheng come back yet?" After saying that, he hurriedly jumped off the stool and ran out. Pear Blossom had to look helplessly.

Peach Blossom walked out of the courtyard and walked along the village to the house of Wang Da Zi in front of him. San Lang has a good time with Mingsheng on weekdays, so it should be at his house. Wang Da's house is close to the stone bridge, with a mud wall surrounding a courtyard, a typical farmhouse. Only those who are poorer like their own families will build a fence with wood as a fence.

Peach Blossom stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it took a while for the door to open. It was Da Lang who opened the door, as if he had just woken up, his hair was scattered, his eyes were shrugged, and Peach Blossom even saw the eye droppings in the corners of his eyes.

"What are you doing?!" Da Lang looked at the little one in front of him and said in a vicious voice.

"I'm looking for Mingsheng, I don't know if I'm here. Peach Blossom looked at the sloppy young man in front of her and said with some disgust.

"No!" "Boom" Da Lang closed the door. Peach Blossom looked at the door panel in front of her speechlessly, and quickly withdrew before the dust fell.

Where is it if you are not at Saburo's house? Peach Blossom looked in the direction of the Qingshui River, maybe she was playing in the river.

Peach Blossom lowered her head and walked towards the small stone bridge. The September sun is still a little hot, shining on the body warmly. The yellow earth is dusty as you walk. The cloth shoes on Peach Blossom's feet are a little cracked, and I have to ask the second sister to make up for them when I turn around.

When I was about to walk to the small stone bridge, Peach Blossom stood on it and looked around. There are many large bluestones on the banks of the Qingshui River, which are occupied by a group of women at the moment, the sound of wooden sticks beating clothes, the laughter of women, and the children playing behind their mothers on the other side. The gentle wind stirred the clear water river with the smell of grass. What a picture of autumn washing.

The women had sharp eyes and saw that the peach blossoms were coming, and they greeted them warmly.

"Peach Blossom, why did you run out? Are you getting better?"

"Why don't you rest at home more?"

Peach Blossom smiled and replied one by one: "Well, it's better, it's almost noon, come out to find my fourth brother." "

Peach Blossom looked at Aunt Li, who was closest to her house, and said, "Aunt Li, have you seen Mingsheng coming this way?"

The woman named Aunt Li raised her head and wiped the sweat on her forehead with wet water: "I was still there just now, this may be going home." "

"Hey, then I'll go back and have a look. Thank you, Aunt Li. Peach Blossom agreed, turned around and walked in the direction of home.

"This third girl of the Jin family is sick, but she is much more lively. Another woman with a slender face next to Aunt Li approached and said.

Without waiting for Aunt Li to speak, the two women of about three or five people were busy talking and said, "But isn't it? Why did you fall into the water yesterday? I heard Tang Yatou say that she fell into the river just to talk to other Su Gongzi, and even pulled Su Gongzi with her! Ouch, I am really not ashamed, and I don't look at what kind of character Su Gongzi is, will you fall in love with her?" When he said this, his eyes were full of disdain, and he looked at the mad man in the sun with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

Aunt Li looked at the person who spoke, it was the princess in the village who was even more disgusting than Peach Blossom Erniang.

"How old is the peach blossom baby, what do you know, Mrs. Wang, don't talk nonsense, and you're not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue. "

"Why am I talking nonsense, it was the Tang girl herself who said it. Others can also see it clearly, otherwise the two of them stood well on the bridge, how could they fall into the river. How many times have I walked over? Why haven't you seen me fall? Mrs. Wang shouted, waving the wooden stick in her hand vigorously in the air, as if to boost her momentum.

"It's up to you. Aunt Li didn't bother to argue with her, so she stopped talking and just buried herself in the laundry.

"What I said is not reasonable, this is a peach blossom is still small, if it is bigger and falls into the water like last year, then Su Gongzi will have to marry her. As Mrs. Wang spoke, her voice sank, as if she had thought of something, she grinned and smirked: "Ouch, I didn't expect Jin Dazhong Zhang to be so honest and give birth to a daughter who is so scheming, isn't this what flies on the branch as a phoenix." Do you think I'm talking about it?" Mrs. Wang couldn't help but be very proud of her reasoning.

But no one around answered her words, which is tantamount to ruining the reputation of other girls. Although Peach Blossom is still young, she is already eight years old after all, and she will be a big girl in two years. If this word spreads, the old Jin family will not have to find themselves desperately! But in private, they inevitably changed their minds, this little girl can't really be so scheming, right? If you really climb the big tree of Su Gongzi, it would be terrible, Su Gongzi is not the grandson of Lizheng's only grandson, but his father teaches in the academy in the city, and the three generations of his ancestors are all scholars, I heard that the older generation is still from the capital, who can tell how thick the family is, and Su Gongzi has no choice but to say, even a woman like himself who has been married for many years has to blush when he sees it. Ouch, why didn't you let your girl take this on this matter? No, I'll have to ask what the hell is going on when I go back? Don't really let that Jin girl take the lead.

Qingshui River seems to have calmed down all of a sudden.

When I was about to get home, I happened to meet Su Jinchen. The young man was dressed in light blue, calm and gentle.

Peach Blossom didn't know what to say to him, after all, the two didn't have much to do with each other. But it didn't seem appropriate not to speak, so I had to say dryly: "Why don't you leave after eating?"

"No, I'm going to the city in the afternoon. Su Jinchen replied with a smile, it seemed that it would always be such a heart-warming look.

Eating and going to the city to do wool business? It's okay not to eat, just to save some food for the family.

"Hmm. Peach Blossom nodded.

"By the way, I didn't mean to pull you that day, I just wanted to lift you high. ”

When the two passed by, Su Jinchen suddenly said loudly.

"What?" Peach Blossom turned around.

Su Jinchen has already gone away.

Peach Blossom looked at his back and pouted depressedly, what a strange person.

When he got home, Mingsheng was really at home. The family sat together again and talked, Zhang's praised Su Jinchen for being sensible and polite, and Jin Dazhong also nodded in praise. Mingsheng said dissatisfiedly: "My eldest brother is also very good." "

"Yes, yes, big brother is better than anyone else!" said Peach Blossom as she rubbed Mingsheng's head. Jin Dazhong and Zhang's Pear Blossom both laughed, and Jingsheng also smiled.
