The magpie's father sat on the kang and was stunned for a long time, recalling this conversation in a daze, was there anything wrong with it? Or was he too cold to others?

Thinking left and right, he didn't notice the inappropriate words and attitudes, so he jumped to the ground and hurriedly chased him out barefoot.

As soon as he stepped out of the door and stood on the steps, he saw the second stunned man and Old Man Li still dragging in the courtyard, one wanted to come in, and the other wanted to walk away.

The magpie's father hurried down the steps, ran to the two of them, and said, "Don't go, you must have a meal anyway!" When he had finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pushed them both in.

When the three of them returned to the house, the magpie's father pushed them both onto the kang and then set up the table and prepared to serve the food.

After a while, the magpie's two sisters brought two dishes from the kitchen and put them on the table.

The magpie's mother brought a pot of hot soju, and the magpie's father took it with both hands, poured it for the guests next to each other, and then toasted the two of them, and urged them to move their chopsticks, so they ate and drank hotly.

The three of them chatted while eating, first chatting for a long time about the corn, beans, potatoes, cabbage, and the growth of crops in the fields, and then chatting about some news and anecdotes in the countryside.

In the middle of the conversation, Old Man Li tried his best to talk about marriage and get married, while the second stunned man tried to pull to the side, and this topic couldn't get closer together.

When the wine is over three rounds, the dish is over five flavors. The magpie's father smiled and asked the second stunned man, "Young man, how can I repay you for saving your life?"

The second stunned man smiled and replied, "Uncle, don't take this little thing to heart, it's just an accidental encounter and stretched out his hand." Whoever encounters it will reach out to save people, and there is no need for anything in return. ”

The magpie's father said, "No, you saved my life!" Say, young man, what do you want, and I will try to satisfy you. ”

The second stunned smiled innocently, shook his head like a cow's head that had been bitten by an insect, shook it a few times quickly, and said, "No, no." ”

The magpie's father looked at the old man Li, who was anxiously looking at the second stunned, and then at the magpie father, who was about to open his mouth to speak. The magpie's father said to Old Man Li: "Brother, did you come to my house today with an important mission?"

Old man Li put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, smiled and said, "Yes, I'm here today to ......"

The second stunned man quickly took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and stuffed it into the old man Li's mouth, and the old man Li had no choice but to stop talking, open his two lips and clamp the cigarette handed over by the second stunned man first. The second stunned man then lit a cigarette for Old Man Li, and then the second stunned man took advantage of the fact that he lit a cigarette for Old Man Li and said: "Yes, today I came to the village to do something, Uncle Li said that I know you, and I want to come in to see you when I pass by." ”

Old man Li watched the second stunned man plug his mouth with a cigarette, and then the second stunned man lit the fire, he had to say half a sentence, and then the cigarette handed by the second stunned man smoked.

This move was seen by the magpie's father. The magpie's father thought to himself: "This young man has been interrupting, eighty percent of them are 'talking about haircuts in front of bald people--afraid of too many people!'" So he raised his wine glass and toasted Old Man Li with a glass of wine, and then said with a smile: "Brother, you haven't finished what you just said, have you?

After hearing this, Old Man Li tilted his neck and poured down the glass of wine, his heart was anxious, the wine was hot, and the face of the white beard with a circle on the side immediately turned red .......

This old man Li loves to drink, and every morning at home, he has to carry a small wine pot to the rural supply and marketing cooperatives to buy loose liquor to drink, he does not buy more or less, and only buys one or two wines every day. And his little wine jug didn't put more or less, just one or two wines. And the salesman of the supply and marketing cooperative, did he give him enough scales, he only needed to look at the small wine jug to understand. If the flask is not satisfied, he will deal with the salesman, who will have to fill it up for him as soon as possible.

After filling the small wine jug, Old Man Li carried it back to the house. And every day at noon, his wife has to fry a dish for him. As soon as lunch time came, he sat down on the kang with his legs bent, waiting for his wife to bring him a hot plate of dishes to the small kang table, and then brought the small pot of wine to the hot one.

All year round, not a day, not too much at all, no more at all. Just one or two drinks a day. His face and neck were full of drunk, and both ears were red.

This year, Old Man Li is eighty-one years old, with a childish face, no deafness and no dazzle, strong spirits, quick hands and feet, quick thinking, and coherent speech. At first glance, people think they are in their early fifties.

Old man Li is warm-hearted, and he likes to talk to young people about the matchmaker all his life, often running around the east and the west, introducing the young men of the east family to the girls of the west family, introducing the girls of village A to the young men of village B, and passing on information to the young men and girls who are married and married, and tying the knot.

In the celebration of the wedding tie, you can always see the shadow of Old Man Li. Old man Li also likes to come out and show his face and say two impromptu comments from the matchmaker. Then he was honored as a guest of honor, sat on the upper seat, and drank his face like a big red apple in the Mid-Autumn Festival, round and red.

This old man Li heard the magpie's father say that he still hadn't said half a sentence, so he asked him to take out that half of the sentence as well. I thought to myself that this half sentence couldn't just be taken away in my stomach, I had to say it, or I couldn't breathe if I didn't hold my breath.

So while he was drinking, he reached out and touched his flushed cheeks, and said, "Just open the window and say something bright! This is a good thing! There is no need to hide it." I don't think you are ordinary fate, I am stunned when I hear it! There are thousands of things in the world, and there are thousands of people in the world, why does this happen between you? This is a great fate!"

After the old man Li finished speaking, he turned to the magpie's father and said, "This young man is a little careless today, he didn't know in advance that the object I introduced to him was the family he had saved her father, and he found out that this was the case when he came." He has known your girl for a long time, and he thinks that he is not worthy of your girl, and he doesn't want to embarrass you because he once saved you. He said that saving people and marriage are two different things, the bridge returns to the bridge, and the road returns to the road, and the two can't be confused together, and you can't let the girl marry us just because he saved someone's father, this is not what a righteous man and a gentleman does. So when they saw this, they didn't let me go any further, and tried to drag me away. ”

When the magpie's father heard this, he smiled and said, "This young man is not only kind-hearted and kind-hearted, but also a righteous gentleman. Okay, I like this young man, and I agree to this marriage. However, we are a modern society after all, this marriage requires a man's love and a woman's wishes, don't people often promote the freedom of marriage, and we can't force others to do it. Besides, this marriage is a matter of two people, as the saying goes, 'the twisted melon is not sweet, and the forced marriage is not round', let's do this, let the magpie make a statement, if the magpie is willing, we will do it, if we don't want to discuss it again, how about it?"

Old man Li said: "This is good! After all, it is a major event in the girl's life, let's just say a word, life is lived by others, and people's own fate is appropriate for their own ideas." As long as the girl says something, whether it is successful or not, our hearts will be open. I don't have to run my legs, do I?"

Speaking of this, the magpie's father called his wife over and said to his wife: "You go and ask the magpie to see if she likes or dislikes the marriage introduced to him by Uncle Li, no matter what the situation, let her be clear and give us a reply." In a moment, you come and sue us. ”

When the magpie's father finished speaking, the magpie's mother was ordered to go out.

After a while, the magpie came accompanied by her mother. As soon as she entered, she stood aside with a red face, hiding behind her mother.

The magpie's father said, "Son, it's better for you to come here." Your Uncle Li has also been here several times, this young man, you have known each other before, and he is not a stranger who has just met. Your mother also went over and told you just now, so you can make a statement to all of us and see if you are willing or unwilling?"

After speaking, the magpie raised his head, blushed slightly, and said, "I do!"

The two stunned people suddenly had a fast heartbeat, their whole body trembled violently, their faces turned red, they looked at the magpie with their eyes open, and they couldn't say a word for most of the day, "This swan is actually willing to marry me, a toad?" he thought, he couldn't believe his ears, this unexpected surprise, almost made him so excited that he turned his back on his breath, and in an instant two tears poured out from his eyes!

After the magpie and the two stunned sons tied the knot, the two fell in love, and the couple fell in love, loved each other, and respected each other like guests. Especially the second stunned always felt that he was not worthy of the magpie, a beautiful girl married him with a big hairy face, and the family was not rich, so it was too much to the girl, so everything at home depended on the magpie, and the magpie was a little unhappy, so he pretended to be a gorilla and danced to make the magpie happy.

And today, because of a cart of watermelons, the husband and wife turned against each other, and quarreled on the street in Shilianzi Village!

The magpie is going to Huangling Village to find the king who has calculated a cart of watermelons, and wants to get this cart of watermelons back. Because the cart of watermelons was bought with the money from her father's hospitalization. If she doesn't sell the caravan back now, she won't be able to pay her father's medical treatment.

Her father's life is now hanging by a thread, and he is desperately waiting for the money to go to the hospital.

And the second stunned man couldn't let the magpie go to Huangling Village to ask for this cart of watermelons. Because the second stunned man is a person who loves face very much. The face of the man he looked at was more precious than gold. His philosophy of life is that face is a man's pass and credit card in the world. If you lose money, you can find a way to earn it back, once you lose face, you will have no prestige in society, and people will not want to deal with it. As a result, it becomes difficult to move an inch.

Therefore, his principle is to lose money without losing face. The second stunned man lived so long and behaved like this. Therefore, although these two stunned people speak rudely, their reputation is very high. Whether it is from his own village or from other villages, wherever he walks by in a daze, people trust him very much and are willing to do business with him.

This time, the two stunned drove a donkey cart of watermelons, and lost the bet in the face of the half-village people in Huangling Village, and in the face of the half-village people, he fulfilled the bet promise on the spot, and asked the family to take away all the watermelons, and now he went to find someone to regret it and asked for the cart of watermelons back, which is not the same as slapping him in the face!

He would rather die than let a magpie go to Huangling Village to be embarrassed.

But this magpie is in a hurry because her father is in a hurry to see a doctor!

If the old man of the family delays his medical treatment because of this incident, and there are three long and two short, how can he explain this to the other family? The magpie hates me to death from then on! If this family is not good, this family will not be able to get by!

Thinking of this, the second stunned person got up from the ground and said, "You give me two days, and I will go and earn back the money for your father's medical treatment, okay?"

The magpie was silent. The second stunned turned around and patted the dirt on his trouser leg and walked towards the outside of the village.

In the summer afternoon, the sun was scorching, and the two stunned people did not drink a sip of water, did not eat a mouthful of food, were hungry, had a dry mouth, were penniless, and walked towards the outside of the village step by step with weak limbs .......
