Chapter 102: So Close, So Far
Xiao Han suddenly opened his eyes and spoke, which startled Xiaolian: "Ouch, I thought you were asleep, and suddenly speaking, it scared people." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Originally, I was about to fall asleep, but I was awakened by your aura, you say, what aura?" Xiao Han shook her body and joked.
"Well, I thought about it, could it be that your aunt saw that Tang Yun was promising, and wanted your cousin to be his concubine. It must be, your cousin will be nineteen years old after the New Year, and she will become an old girl, and she can't get married. That's why your aunt has such an idea. But Tang Yun is three years younger than your cousin. However, as the saying goes, a female junior holds gold bricks. It is also possible that the Li family is in a hurry to hold their grandson...... However, I didn't expect Tang Yun to be so vicious and want to harm you. Now that he's gone, I don't know where he ran to hide, and your aunt's calculation has been in vain......"
Xiaolian kept talking with a small mouth, Xiao Han's eyes widened more and more, and finally couldn't help laughing, this little girl, can really think, really dare to think! I have to say that a woman's imagination is so rich.
Xiaolian was talking energetically, and when she saw Xiao Han smirking there, she didn't follow it, stretched out her hands to scratch her armpits, and said, "What are you laughing at, don't laugh, am I not right?"
"Haha, yes, you're so right...... Giggle, stop scratching, spare me...... Haha, I was wrong, Xiaolian...... Oops......" Xiao Han dodged left and right, laughing breathlessly, and kept begging for mercy. Xiaolian saw her smile and her face was flushed, so she withdrew her hand and spared her.
The two talked and laughed for a while before falling asleep sleepily.
Unexpectedly, in the next room, there were people who tossed and turned like pancakes and couldn't sleep.
It turned out that Huang Erhu was sleeping next door, originally he also went to help Lixia's family build a house during the day, and he was very tired at the end of the day, but the wall room that was not soundproof at all, and the laughter of his sister and Xiaohan like silver bells came clearly, so that he couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen attentively, until they all slept, he still didn't feel sleepy, and he always felt that there was something in his heart, itchy.
A few days ago, knowing that Xiao Han was going to come to live with his sister, he was happy and nervous at the same time. He is eighteen years old after the New Year, and he has reached the age of finding a partner early, the eldest brother has become a relative at this age, and now the children are three years old. So my mother has repeatedly looked at the girl for herself in the past two years, but somehow, she is not interested.
However, since the last time he saw Xiao Han at Lixia's house during the Chinese New Year, he suddenly had a feeling of excitement in his heart. As long as I saw her, I was nervous, and my palms were sweaty.
At that time, I didn't understand why, but later, when I saw the thin Xiaohan fearlessly protecting his family in front of Li Zhutou, talking eloquently in front of the county lord in court, he was stabbed but he was not afraid, and scolded Gao Lianlian to the point of incompleteness, and finally made the Gao family lose 2,000 taels of silver. And to everyone's surprise, she didn't take it for herself, but took it out to run a righteous school. Later, after listening to her impassioned speech at the opening ceremony of Chunhui Yixue, Huang Erhu deeply regretted that he was not two years younger, if only his mother had been born two years later, he could enter Yixue and be a glorious Chunhui person......
Huang Zhang, who was already asleep, didn't know the second son's thoughts, if she knew, she would probably scold him, and the stinky boy complained that he gave birth to him early.
Hey, she's so good, so good that she can only look up to herself, and she's five years older than her, it's impossible, don't be delusional.
Intellectually, Huang Erhu soberly told himself not to think about it, but emotionally he couldn't control it, especially thinking about her crisp laughter before, thinking that she was next door to him, and he was only separated by a wall.
So close, yet so far away!
Young Sichun, but that mind has just sprouted, but he can't pull out the branches, which makes people so helpless and uncomfortable!
Huang Erhu slowly stretched out his hand and put it on the cold wall, as if he could really touch the goddess in his heart.
The next morning, Huang Erhu woke up and found that it was dawn, he panicked, bad, got up late, it was estimated that Xiaohan had left. He hurriedly put on his clothes, ran out, and when he saw his mother, he complained: "Mother, why didn't you wake me up, I got up late, and when I got there, breakfast was gone." ”
"Poof!" someone couldn't help but laugh out loud. Huang Erhu looked up, and suddenly felt embarrassed, it turned out that his sister and Xiao Han were standing at the gate and looking at him with a smile.
Why haven't they left yet, oh no! She must have heard her own words just now, and she must have thought that she was gluttonous to go over to help. Hey, Huang Erhu really wants to slap himself and make you okay!
"Brother, don't worry, your sister and I are cooking, look, this is steamed bread and oil cakes, I left them for you. Enough fun, right?" Xiaolian walked over and handed him an oiled paper bag.
Huang Erhu didn't answer, but muttered, "You, why are you back again?"
"Oh, Aunt He's aunt was not feeling well this morning, and there were not enough people to cook, so we came over and asked my mother to come over to help. Xiaolian said.
"Yes, my mother asked me to come over and ask my aunt to come over and help. Xiao Han also said.
When Huang Zhang heard this, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand, and walked out, urging again: "Erhu, why don't you go wash up quickly, look at your hair is messy, hurry up, hurry over after eating." ”
Huang Erhu listened to his mother's words, his face was even more panicked, he just noticed that he was just wearing clothes indiscriminately, he didn't even comb his hair, and his face was not washed.
Huang Erhu rushed into the room like a gust of wind, but he didn't notice the threshold under his feet, and he tripped and almost fell. There was a sneering laugh behind him, and he slammed the door shut, his ears red and his heart pounding.
After a while, he walked out with his head down, only to find that the room was quiet, with an oiled paper bag on the table and a bowl of water. It turned out that both girls were gone. Huang Erhu breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't have to face them, at least he was free of embarrassment, but he was a little lost in his heart. He also wanted to see her again and hear her laughter.
So he gobbled up his breakfast, drank a few more sips of water, and hurried out the door.
There is a lot of strength in numbers, and three days later, Xiao Han's house was built. The new house is divided into a front yard and a back yard, and the front yard has four large blue brick houses, which are two guest rooms and two study rooms. The backyard is also four identical rooms, one for Lin Jincai and his wife, and one for the three brothers and sisters of Lixia. There is a door between the front and back yards, which is set up to prevent more guests from entering the backyard casually in the future, but now that there are only Chu Zhao, there is no need to close this door. In addition, there are transepts on the east and west sides of the backyard, which serve as bathrooms and kitchens.
There is also a vegetable patch in the middle of the backyard, which is ready to be used to grow fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. The yard in the front yard is not very spacious, and Xiao Han plans to plant some flowers and some vegetables. Anyway, all the land that can be used must be used and cannot be wasted.
The walls and floors of the new house are paved with green bricks, and the new beams exude the fragrance of wood. Lin Jincai's family stood in front of the gate of the new house, very excited, and finally no longer had to live in those broken tile houses.
"I want this!" the spring breeze shouted and ran into the easternmost room, "I want to live next to my sister." ”
"Then why don't you live in the middle room, which has the best light and the best location, warm in winter and cool in summer. Lixia deliberately teased him.
"The middle two rooms are for my father and sister to live in, and we brothers are men, so we live on both sides to protect them. "The spring breeze is sensible and authentic.
"What a good boy with filial piety. Chen touched his head and said, "Daddy's position will be changed with you, you are still young, let Daddy protect you first, and when you grow up and Daddy is old, you will protect us." ”
Chunfeng shook his head and insisted on his choice.
"Let him be, the spring breeze has grown up, he is a little man, and he can protect us. Xiao Han smiled, "It's good to exercise early, and in the future, the two brothers will be able to support the burden of the family." ”
With Xiao Han's words, the matter was settled.
The new house was built, and the furniture was also bought ready-made from the furniture store in the town, and it was ready to use when you moved back. Because I had to move in right away, I didn't have time to ask someone to do it.
Lin Jincai asked someone to choose a date, which was five days later, but because they had no place to live, they planned to move into a new house first and live first, without firing. According to custom, you have to officially move to a new house, that is, "settle into a new house", before you can start a fire and cook. Therefore, I still went to He Mu's house next door to cook and eat, and the furniture was temporarily placed in their house.
Five days later it was an auspicious day, and eight o'clock in the morning was an auspicious time. According to local customs, in the auspicious morning, the elderly uncles and uncles of the clan who are famous and have many children and grandchildren should be invited to "open the gate". Lin Jincai went to invite Lin Chaoyuan, the patriarch of the Lin family, and his wife to be uncles and aunts, and there was no one more noble in the Lin family than their status. After listening to Lin Jincai's explanation, the old couple readily agreed.
When opening the door, Lin Chaoyuan is on the left, his wife is on the right, standing in the door, the door in front of the new house is hung with a big red cloth, called "door red", the door side is pasted with red couplets, and the red lantern is hung, and the whole new house is lit up. Then Mr. Geography (Mr. Feng Shui) and the house master are waiting for it, and the door is closed. When the procession of "falling into the new house" arrived at the door of the new house, Lin Chaoyuan and his wife opened the door, set off firecrackers, and recited aloud such eulogies as "Huatang is auspicious! The jade room is shining! The house is prosperous! The wealth is prosperous! The talents are numerous!", Lin Jincai took the lamp to enter the door, and a group of people behind carried the furniture into the house, and then set it up in the designated position.
After officially entering the new house, each room must be lit with a kerosene lamp, which cannot be extinguished during the day, and must be lit for three days and three nights. Then pick up a piece of charcoal from the original cooking place and put it in the new pot, and then put it from the pot to the stove, and you can cook in the new house.
After settling in the new house, in order to thank the villagers for their help, the Lin family held a sumptuous banquet. (To be continued.) )
