Chapter 51: Marriage (17).

Today is August 14th, because tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the people in the town are all overjoyed.

Boss Chen and his wife rushed to finish all the work in the short term this morning, and deliberately set aside the time for today and tomorrow to prepare for the holiday.

In the morning, Boss Chen went to the market and bought a big bag of melon seeds and peanuts. Xiaopang didn't think the melon seeds were delicious, so he asked the proprietress to fry salt melon seeds for him.

The proprietress hurriedly finished her lunch and took Boss Chen to make a fire and fry salt melon seeds for Xiaopang.

I thought it was another sleepy afternoon, but I thought that a neighbor next to Boss Chen's house suddenly came to visit the door. As soon as she entered the door, she said in a loud voice: "Alas, Tian Niang, have you finished your work?" I've been in a hurry with my family for a long time today, but I'm almost done, just waiting for a light holiday tomorrow. ”

I looked up and saw a tall woman blocking the doorway, and she blocked out most of the sunlight outside the door. She was about thirty years old, and she wore a big red dress, which looked very funny because of her dark complexion. He wears a red silk flower on his head and a silver-plated hairpin.

She found my gaze, not only did not dodge, but grinned loudly: "Yo, these are those distinguished guests from afar, sure enough, they are all different from the people in our town, with fine skin and tender meat, and they all look noble." ”

I can't help but be a little speechless, this eldest sister has such a unique vision, and we don't have more eyes and less mouths than the people in Qinghe Town, what difference can there be?

After a pause, the eldest sister seemed to have discovered something new, looked surprised, clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Ah, this little brother is still wearing the clothes of a Taoist priest, won't he come to us to kill demons and demons?" I heard that you've been here for half a month, how is it? Are there any yokai in our town? ”

I turned my head to look at Song Yunjing, a little curious about what kind of reaction he would make.

"Sister Li is here, Chubby, why didn't you call me?" The proprietress who had just come out of the kitchen glanced at Xiaopang with disgust, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet Sister Li enthusiastically.

Sister Li patted the proprietress on her hand and said, "You and Lao Chen are so diligent, why haven't the work in the house been done yet?" ”

The proprietress smiled gently, brought her a chair, and said while pouring tea: "It's done, it's done a long time ago." This kid at home fried to eat salt melon seeds, so he went to fry salt melon seeds for him. ”

"Oh, I'll just say it." Sister Li nodded lightly and took two sips from the teacup.

Not long after they sat down at the table next to us, Boss Chen brought out two plates of fried melon seeds, and looked at them from a distance, and there was still a trace of heat on top of the melon seeds. Xiaopang couldn't wait to run over, snatched a plate from Boss Chen's hand, and brought it over with a grin.

Boss Chen put another dish on the table over there, "Come, try the freshly fried salt melon seeds." ”

Sister Li grabbed two with a smile: "What's so embarrassing?" Then I'd be respectful and obey. ”

The proprietress said: "Sister Li just eat more, what can this neighbor be embarrassed about?" ”

I tried to swallow two of them, and found that Chubby was very prescient, and the flavorful ones were indeed more fragrant than the tasteless ones. However, the melon seeds have just come out of the pot, and I am afraid of burning my mouth, so I just wait for it to dry first, and then swallow it when it is cooler.

Sister Li swallowed melon seeds for a while, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to moisten her mouth, and then continued to swallow, suddenly as if she remembered something, she lowered her voice and said: "That Miss Qian is getting married, do you know?" ”

The proprietress was slightly stunned: "Miss Qian? Which Miss Qian? ”

Miss Qian's words suddenly came into my ears, and I was drinking tea and subconsciously looked up at Sister Li, a few drops of hot tea spilled the cup and fell on the back of my hand, but I didn't feel much of it.

Sister Li put the melon seeds in her hand back into the plate, and said with a pout: "Which other Miss Qian family?" It's just the sick seedling who fainted at the end of three days. ”

Qian Siyu is getting married, and the other party must be Sun Yu.

The proprietress really lived up to her expectations and asked, "Which family are you going to marry?" ”

Seeing the proprietress selling her face like this, Sister Li was in high spirits: "Doctor Sun from the medicine shop? Unexpectedly, these two people actually walked together. Alas, Tian Niang, did you say that Dr. Sun was willing to marry this sick man, did he take a fancy to the Qian family's property? Otherwise, why would you marry such a delicate daughter-in-law? The body is weak and can't help the wind, so you can't always offer her like an ancestor? ”

I frowned slightly, although I didn't want to see Sun Yu, I knew that he was by no means such a despicable and shameless person.

Obviously, the proprietress didn't agree either, she frowned: "How can Doctor Sun be such a person?" There are a few people in our town who have not received his favor, but if they have some minor illnesses and pains, they have to go to Dr. Sun, and the cost of medicine can be waived, and if they can be less, they will be less. If he really loves money, we are afraid that he will even look down on a sickness. ”

Sister Li was dumbfounded by the proprietress and touched her nose and smiled: "It's also ha." ”

There was a moment of silence in the room, and a pin drop could be heard. In order to save her previous mistakes, Sister Li thought for a while and said, "Actually, don't say anything else, in terms of appearance, only Dr. Sun in our town can be worthy of Miss Qian." Dr. Sun's medical skills are good, so she will help Miss Qian to recuperate, and in less than two years, Miss Qian will definitely be in good health, and it will not be a problem to give Dr. Sun a big fat boy. ”

The proprietress nodded and smiled: "If that's the case, then it's also Dr. Sun's blessing." ”

Sister Li laughed some gossip again, grabbed two handfuls of salt melon seeds in her pocket, and got up to leave.

The proprietress got up and sent Sister Li away, and said to us while cleaning up the melon seed shells that Sister Li had swallowed: "I really didn't expect Dr. Sun to marry Miss Qian's family, there are many girls in our town who like Dr. Sun. ”

I bowed my head: "Maybe it's been a long-term love, didn't Miss Qian relapse from her old illness some time ago?" It is said that the condition is very serious, and Dr. Sun took care of him day and night before snatching Miss Qian back from the hands of the king of Hades. ”

When I said this, I couldn't help but secretly despise myself, and my ability to lie without changing my face was a little higher, the person that the king of Hades wanted, he was just a mortal, where did he have any ability to snatch it back?

The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled: "How did I smell a sour smell from Miss Dongge's words?" ”

Acerbity? I looked at the proprietress puzzled, what does that mean?

Beiqi smiled: "She's not sour, it's sarcastic." She's crying out for someone. ”

The proprietress paused slightly, and said curiously: "Who is the girl complaining about?" ”

I smiled awkwardly, ready to say something to fool me. But when I saw that Sister Li, who had left not long ago, went and returned again, her face was still a little anxious.

She walked over and took the hand of the proprietress, "Tian Niang." I just left your house, and I heard someone in the town saying that the Miss Qian family had fainted again, and this time it seems that even Dr. Sun can't do it. ”

The proprietress stopped what she was doing, and her expression didn't change much: "Sister Li, go home first, since there is no accurate news, let's not guess casually, it's not good for people to hear it." ”

Sister Li was stunned, realizing that she had said the wrong thing again, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. This time, I didn't even gossip anymore and said goodbye to the proprietress directly.
