Chapter 101: Surrender

Nothing was said all night.

The drizzle fell overnight before stopping, the sky that had been dull for two days finally cleared, the morning sun rose, the water vapor was evaporated, the distant mountains were surrounded by clouds and mist, and the smoke of Shili Tunzi was everywhere, painting a beautiful ink painting.

Qin Ruwei got up early to clean up, boiled down the porridge, and then walked to the vegetable field behind the house to pick two handfuls of green onions.

The two rows of vegetables planted after the year have now grown up, a row of cabbage sum and wheat cabbage are extremely tender and green, and she also planted a small piece of chives and coriander, which are also luxuriant, enough for Qin Ruwei to eat alone.

"Sister Qin, picking green onions, but what's delicious?" A farmer passing by with a dustpan passed by and asked with a smile.

"Hey, just boil some porridge, Uncle Su is going to the field." Seeing someone say hello, Qin Ruwei also replied with two sentences.

There is more than one person in this kind of conversation, Qin Ruwei removed all the grass in the vegetable field, returned to the yard with green onions and coriander, and saw that General Black was chasing a small cockroach running all over the ground.

"Naughty." Qin Ruwei laughed and scolded, and General Hei pounced on her skirt again, whimpering.

Qin Ruwei simply squatted down, leaned over, touched her head and said, "You'll have something to eat in a while." ”

The black general snorted and shook his head, as if he was dissatisfied, Qin Ruwei also remembered its former owner, so he said again: "It seems that your former master didn't look down on me here and refused to come." ”

The black general snorted, lay down, leaned over, stuck out his tongue, and looked at the door.

Qin Ruwei smiled, stood up, and frowned, could it be that she really miscalculated? That kid doesn't want to come?

She didn't think much about it, washed the green onions and vegetables in the yard, and then walked into the stove room.

"Sister-in-law."

Qin Ruwei poked her head out, only to see Qin Yi walking into the courtyard with a plate in both hands, and said with a smile: "You are here, have you had breakfast?" ”

"I only came here after eating." Qin Yi raised his hand and said, "My mother made mugwort last night, let you try it too, Dad is wearing a wreath today, I'm afraid I won't come, let me talk to you." ”

Tomorrow is the Qingming Festival, and the people of Shili Tunzi will steam mugwort to sacrifice to their ancestors, and they will also tie some wreaths and burn them when they go to the grave.

Qin Ruwei took it, uncovered the gauze and took a look, there were several mugwort neatly stacked on the flat plate, with a layer of oil, and the smell of mugwort leaves mixed with a hint of sweetness came, fragrant.

"I know, and I've thanked your mother for me when I go back." Qin Ruwei said with a smile, no matter what kind of mentality the Gu family has, it is the superficial harmony, and she is also happy to see it.

Qin Yi scratched his head, looked around, and said, "What are you going to do today?" ”

Qin Ruwei looked at the sky and said, "There is some sunshine today, go back and wash those molds, so you can dry them." ”

A batch of pancreas was demolded just two days ago, and Qin Ruwei had long thought about cleaning those molds, after all, it was good to do more work and do more work.

Qin Yi answered, and went to the place where the mold was stacked to move the pancreas without mentioning it.

After breakfast, Qin Ruwei took out the account book and calculated the account, and now there are one hundred and thirty taels of silver on the account, which is definitely a great property for ordinary farmers, but for Qin Ruwei, it is nine cents and one cent, which is not enough to buy a shop in a better area.

She has too many plans to carry out, to build a house, to buy a shop, if she has spare money, she also wants to buy some land, after all, land is the most confident foundation for survival.

Closing the account book, Qin Ruwei bit her lip and remembered the land behind the house, except for the vegetable field, which was her own, the rest were not, they were all left by the past desperate households and registered in the village.

If you want to build a house in the future, you must not be able to build a small house, so your own three points of land are far from enough, and you have to buy the land behind and on the left and right.

After making up her mind, Qin Ruwei called Qin Yi, locked the door, and walked towards Lizheng's house.

To go to Lizheng's house, she had to pass by Zhuang Churan's house, she deliberately stopped, the courtyard was quiet, she bit her lip, and she was not embarrassed to knock on the door.

Zhuang Churan didn't know that Qin Ruwei had just passed by, and at this time he was kneeling in front of Aunt Zhuang's bed with a tray and begging bitterly.

"Mother, no matter how angry you are, don't get along with your body, let's eat something."

Aunt Zhuang was so angry with Zhuang Churan that she fainted last night, and she woke up not long after she smeared the oil, and she didn't talk to Zhuang Churan when she woke up, and drove him out directly

No, even if Zhuang Churan knelt for a long time, she was still lying on the bed with her back to him, not saying a word.

"Mother, it's the son who is not filial. How much should you eat, but what if you get sick? Doesn't this make my son uncomfortable? Zhuang Churan continued to plead.

He really didn't expect Aunt Zhuang to resist so much, so he didn't dare to mention Qin Ruwei at this juncture, for fear that she would be angry.

Aunt Zhuang snorted and said, "Isn't this just your will, when I die, it's up to you who you want to marry and love." ”

"Mother, why do you say such things to rip out your son's heart?" Zhuang Churan's words revealed deep exhaustion.

Aunt Zhuang turned over and sat up, glared at him, and sneered: "I'll rip out your heart? Who is ripping out my heart? Yes? She patted her heart, her eyes were full of tears, and said, "Your father went early, and my widowed mother brought you up with hard work, how many eyes did you suffer?" Do you remember how we got here? ”

"It's your two wolf-like uncles who wronged me for a few acres of land in our family? Yes? It was a woman who came to the clan with a knife, and she worked hard to protect those acres of land, and then sold it to take root here. Why am I doing that? I look forward to you going out of the ground, glorifying your ancestors, in addition to letting your father feel at ease underground, but also for the day in the future, return to Bailizhuang and raise your eyebrows, so that those who bully our orphans and widows can see that we are not easy to bully, let them regret it, and give our name to the family tree. ”

Zhuang Churan pursed his lips and was silent, his hands clenched into fists, he was still young at that time, but he was also sensible, how could he not remember?

The two uncles wronged Aunt Zhuang for stealing people for a few acres of land, and it was his mother who dragged him to the ancestral hall with a kitchen knife to wipe his neck, which calmed down the matter, but later, they couldn't live anymore, and they sold their fields and came to Shili Tunzi to settle down.

"But what about you? How do you do that? Aunt Zhuang looked at him sadly: "You are pulling and pulling with an abandoned woman, and at night, you still run to her, what do you want to do?" Do you still want fame? Do you want to be face-saving? What, you still said you wanted to marry her? An abandoned woman? It's really ridiculous and generous. ”

Zhuang Churan couldn't help but argue: "Mother, Wei'er is a good girl, you also watched her grow up, don't you know what kind of temperament she has?" ”

Aunt Zhuang sneered: "I only know now that I am blind." She is a married woman, and she is shameless, and she still wants to lure my son. ”

If it is said that Zhuang Churan does not know how to be honest, Aunt Zhuang is more inclined to Qin Ruwei to go to the ditch to lead Zhuang Churan without shame, which makes Zhuang Churan not know what to do, and he is dizzy and ignores, and he leaves all the etiquette, righteousness and shame behind.

"Mother!" Zhuang Churan couldn't hear anyone insulting Qin Ruwei, so he stood up, touched Zhuang Auntie's gaze, softened his tone, and said, "Mother, it's not her fault that you were divorced, you are also a woman, how can you not understand her suffering?" She is smart and quick-witted, has a good temperament, is generous and reasonable, is an excellent woman, and she is worthy of her son, so you don't have to say those words again. ”

"Phew!" Aunt Zhuang snorted coldly: "A truly innocent yellow flower girl, will she be alone with a man before she is married?" I used to think she was a good one, but I was blind. ”

"Mother said this, that is insulting the children?" Zhuang Churan's face sank with anger.

Seeing his gloomy face, Aunt Zhuang knew that what she had just said was serious, but she refused to admit defeat, tilted her head and said, "In short, if you want to marry her, it is impossible." If you want to get married, okay, after the Qingming Festival, your father will go to the grave, and my mother will go to the matchmaker to find a serious family affair for you. ”

Zhuang Churan's eyes were cold, and he said with some disappointment: "Does my mother want to see that her son is not good?" ”

Aunt Zhuang was furious: "The marriage of my children is the order of my parents, your father is not here, and I am still the master, can't I still make decisions for you?" Do you want to be unfilial? ”

Zhuang Churan closed his eyes, knowing that Aunt Zhuang was angry now, and she couldn't say anything, if she was going to work with her, maybe she would carry people into the door tomorrow, and it would be worth the loss, thinking so, she softened her voice and said: "Mother, let's not mention this stubble, the left and right sons have no fame, and it is not too late to mention family affairs in the future." ”

Aunt Zhuang saw that he was soft, and she was a little proud, no child has ever been able to beat her father, and a filial piety word can penetrate them.

"Then you promise me that you will not be confused in the future, and you will not be allowed to go over there again?" Aunt Zhuang glared at him.

Zhuang Churan narrowed his eyelids and said lightly: "Children often go to school in the county, how many times can they be at home in a year?" ”

Aunt Zhuang thought about it, and only came back once a month, sometimes once every two months, but there were really many fewer opportunities to meet, and she had not allowed it, what could they do?

In this world, men can wait, but women can't.

Seeing Zhuang Churan's declining appearance, he stroked his shoulder and said: "Son, you listen to your mother's advice, and when you become famous, your mother will ask for a famous lady to marry for you, and you can study with peace of mind, huh?" ”

Zhuang Churan smiled bitterly and looked at her: "Mother, when you are successful and famous, how many of you don't look at my fame?" How many people are genuinely looking at me, whether rich or poor? ”

Aunt Zhuang's face froze.

"I'm afraid this porridge is going to be cold, I'll go and bring it to my mother again." Zhuang Churan took the tray that was set aside, and walked out without waiting for her to reply.

Aunt Zhuang watched his back disappear, opened her mouth, and felt a sour feeling in her heart.

But thinking of Qin Ruwei's life experience, she turned cold again, if she didn't succeed, she would not marry a famous wife, but also marry an innocent scholarly girl. R1154
