Chapter 58: My son is a showman
"Sister-in-law Rong, Uncle Fuqing, Aunt Fu......" Yuxiu greeted one by one with a smile, and then replied to Sister-in-law Rong's words, "We don't worry about Auntie, come and see her." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
She said that she had already walked to the door of Yan Qinghong's house and gently pulled the door knocker, "Uncle, aunt, are you at home?" I'm Xiuxiu. ”
She shouted, and pushed with a little force in her hand, but the courtyard door was not bolted, and it was pushed open with a creak.
Behind the door, Yan Qinghong was standing up from the hall, and Yan Jinpeng walked to the back of the house.
Yan Qinghong saw Yuxiu and greeted him kindly, "Xiuxiu, here?" Quick, come in. ”
Yuxiu glanced at Yan Qinghong, still as in his memory. He is about the same age as his father, has stayed in the village, and got married early, so his two sons are much older than his four brothers and sisters.
Like his father, he has a square face, slender eyebrows, and obvious facial features.
It's just that his lips are much thinner than his father's. It is said that people with thin lips are ruthless, but there is some truth to it. Ah Gong brought him up, and he didn't see him miss his grandfather, his father, and himself.
Because of the perennial ground, Yan Qinghong's skin has become bronzed, and the wrinkles on his face make him look like a peaceful old man when he smiles, and even reveals a little honesty.
But if you look closely, the liveliness revealed in his eyes is not honest at all. Those eyes were too bright and flexible, always looking at them, making people feel that the idea in his heart was constantly changing.
Just like now, he greeted with a smile, and those eyes had gone up and down, left and right, looking at Yuxiu, and even the two head ropes that Yuxiu tied to the girl's bun did not escape his gaze. The muslin plain clothes on his body were even more glanced at several times.
"Uncle, we're coming to see you." Yuxiu screamed crisply, raised her feet and walked in.
In the courtyard, I didn't see Chen, well, she should be embarrassed to see people and hid. However, why didn't you see Han Qiaoniang and the two children?
Yuxiu thought to herself, she didn't stop, Yudong followed behind her and called "uncle", and the two walked to the side of the hall, and the courtyard door opened behind them.
Sister-in-law Rong and the others stopped talking for a while, and listened intently to the voices in the room.
Jin Fuqing also subconsciously followed behind the Yuxiu brothers and sisters, and took a few steps closer to that side.
Yuxiu walked to the hall, and without Yan Qinghong's greeting, she put the things in her hand on the table.
Yan Qinghong said politely, "You kid, why are you still taking things when you come......" When he saw clearly what Yuxiu put down, the rest of the words were gone.
What Yuxiu placed on the table was a stack of yellow paper and an octagonal talisman.
Yan Qinghong was a little annoyed, "Xiuxiu, what do you mean by this?" ”
Yuxiu was taken aback by Yan Qinghong's roar, and said aggrievedly, "Uncle, it's not that I didn't say that my aunt was scared when she was at my house, so she would ...... will get the skirt wet...... I went to the village temple to ask for it, saying that this charm can drive away evil spirits. Can't you take this? I...... Uncle, we ...... We are too young to understand, so please don't be angry. ”
Yan Qinghong's voice was a little loud, and after everyone heard it, they all gathered at the gate of the courtyard to watch the excitement. Yuxiu's voice was not soft, and everyone outside heard it.
As soon as Yan Qinghong shouted out, he felt that he was reckless, and he just wanted to change his words.
Yuxiu was already crying aggrievedly, "Uncle, don't be angry, our father and mother are gone, uncle is an elder, take care of us......"
This crying was just like the crying she had in front of Chen, which made Yan Qinghong cry.
"Xiucai Dad, other people's children are also kind, if you are not happy, you can't scold Xiuxiu."
"That's it, the talented lady just carried a big bag and a small bag, and you can't scold you when you look at things."
Someone outside couldn't see it, Jin Fuqing coughed, and walked into the house, "Daddy Jincheng, how about you look at Qingshan's two faces......"
Yan Qinghong looked at Yuxiu, who was crying more and more sadly, only to feel that his brain was buzzing because of the crying, "Xiuxiu, uncle didn't blame you just now, look at you, why are you still crying." Yudong, don't hurry up and help Xiuxiu up. ”
He watched himself speak, Yuxiu didn't react, and saw Yudong standing on the side, so he had to order Yudong.
Yudong heard Yuxiu crying for her father, her eyes were also red, and she reached out to pat her sister on the shoulder, "Xiuxiu, don't cry, ah, don't cry." ”
Yuxiu listened to her brother's nasal voice, for fear that he would cry too, so she listened to the discussion of outsiders, got up and wiped her face, "Well, I don't cry." ”
Her skin is as white as jade, which makes the red of her eyes and nose even more conspicuous, taking advantage of the white cotton dress, she is too thin to wear, which makes people look even more pitiful.
Yuxiu wiped her tears, turned her head to Jin Fuqing and said, "Uncle Fuqing, you misunderstood, my uncle didn't scold me just now." ”
This kid doesn't know what to do, Jin Fuqing is thinking that he is kind enough to persuade people to be treated as donkey liver and lungs, Yuxiu continued, "Uncle Fuqing, look at my deceased father's face, if I don't speak correctly, don't be like me." You're here, just right. I was afraid that you would be busy and would not bother, but you happen to be here, and I have something to ask you to testify. ”
Jin Fuqing was embarrassed to get angry by what she said, and asked strangely, "What kind of witness?" ”
Yan Qinghong was relieved when he heard Yuxiu tell others that he didn't scold them, as soon as he heard that she was going to find Jin Fuqing as a witness, his heart rose again, and his mind was spinning rapidly, did Yuxiu want everyone to help their brothers and sisters talk, and they couldn't get along with themselves?
"Xiuxiu, with your uncle here, what grievances do you have to say? Your father and mother are gone, and your uncle is your elder, and they are all members of the Yan family, so they should take care of you. He bit down heavily on the word "Yan", "Besides, there are your eldest brother and second brother here, your eldest brother is a showman, and the county magistrate can talk, what can't help you make the decision?" ”
Yan Jincheng is a talent, and he doesn't need to kneel when he sees the county.
In other places, there are showmen and even jinshi, and white-clothed talents may not be looked down upon. But in a small place like Dongping Village, Yan Jincheng, a talent, is still worth a little money.
Yan Qinghong's words not only emphasized that the matter between them and Yuxiu's family was the housework of the Yan family, but also threatened everyone that he had a talented son.
"Xiuxiu, if there is anything to trouble Uncle Fuqing, he may not be idle, in the village, there are many important things to manage. It's better to tell Uncle first, if Uncle can't do it, it's not too late for you to find Uncle Fuqing. He took advantage of the situation and praised Jin Fuqing again.
"Uncle, this matter is related to the reputation of you and your aunt, and it is also related to the reputation of the eldest brother, so I want to find Uncle Fuqing." Yuxiu immediately answered, turned to the outside of the courtyard and said, "It just so happens that everyone is also here, I just said it today, and everyone can know the ins and outs of the matter." ”
"Xiuxiu, what do you say, let's all listen." It's not a big deal to watch the excitement outside, listening to Yuxiu's words, the thing to say is quite serious, and it is also related to the reputation of Yan Jincheng, a talented showman, so I am anxious to hear it.
