Chapter 174: Going to the roof
The cuckoo slowed down the action of thrashing his coat and listened with a smile.
The sound of the flute echoes over the mountain village, harmoniously intertwined with the natural human voice, and becomes part of the spring night sonata.
Du Juan told Lin Chun that the skills of carpentry can be gradually improved through practice, but some things can not be improved by practice, such as the ability to perceive nature.
She felt that Lin Chun's craftsmanship had risen to the level of art, and that if she wanted to form her own unique style, she must form a keen perception of the things around her, and understand the connotations that ordinary people could not understand, so she suggested that Lin Chun learn to play the flute.
Music cultivates sentiments, helps to purify the mind, and reaches an ethereal realm.
Of course, you can play the piano, but no one in the village can play it, and many people can play the flute.
It happened that Ren Sanhe could blow the flute, so Lin Chun learned the flute.
At first, the noise made the neighbors uneasy. After a long time, everyone got used to listening to it, and fell asleep with the sound of the flute every night. If Lin Chun doesn't blow one day, some people are still not used to it.
Of course, there are also those who are vulgar and scenic.
For example, a man said: "This baby, where does this good spirit come from, blowing every day!" β
He was so tired that he wanted to fall asleep.
Another person continued: "Teenage boys, can you be in good spirits?" I'm older, and I miss my daughter-in-law. Even the cat is called Chun, let alone a teenage male doll! β
If Lin Chun heard this, he was afraid that he would have to plant himself from the house.
Although on such a spring night, the boy does have some affection, but compared to "Cat Calling Spring", he must not be able to tolerate it.
Lin Chun was not the only one who was compared to "Cat Calling Spring", and he only blew it for a while. In the middle of the village, there was a sound of harmony, full of energy. Very eager and high-pitched.
This is Jiu'er!
This kid is blowing so hard tonight, as if he is very excited.
The second girl saw the cuckoo and gently pounded his clothes. While paying attention to the music, even the yellow finch who was washing his clothes had no sound, so he didn't dare to speak.
Although she didn't understand it very well, she probably knew that the sound of the flute was particularly cheerful because of the cuckoo.
For Lin Chun and Jiu'er, it's not that she hasn't secretly fantasized about it, it's just that she is too self-aware, so she never dares to expect extravagance.
She lives next door to the Lin family, and Lin Chun has treated the cuckoo as a top child since she was a child, and she can see it very clearly. understands that even if Du Juan doesn't marry Lin Chun, Lin Chun won't marry her; As for Jiu'er, he is the most promising son in the Lin family's big house, and she can't climb high.
But teenage girls inevitably have to think about it.
A few days ago, someone came to her to propose marriage.
Although she didn't dare to climb like Lin Chun and Jiu'er, she also had her own expectations. It's just that her parents may not take into account her thoughts, and she doesn't have the courage to compete with her grandparents.
But you can't do nothing!
She wanted the cuckoo to help her. Cuckoo has a lot of ideas, and he has always taken care of her. Besides, that person has a good relationship with the cuckoo.
Because there is something in my heart. Erya couldn't listen to the tune quietly, and after a while, she couldn't help it.
She said softly: "The brothers of the Lin family are so capable, and my father praised them tonight, saying that they are better than many boys in the village." also said that your little brother is good. learn carpenter, and learn hunting; He is sensible and capable. Better than his father. β
She knew that although the Du Juan family was at odds with her grandparents, their sisters got along well with Huang Xiaobao. That big fuss a few years ago. Huang Xiaobao also helped them speak.
Du Juan was also willing to help his cousin say good things, so he said softly: "Brother Xiaobao is very capable." I am willing to use my brain, and the things I make now are better than those made by my uncle. β
Erya paused and asked casually: "It's been two years since your eldest sister got married, and Xiaobao is about to marry your sister-in-law, right?" Your family is going to have a lot of money to pay again. β
The eldest girl married Lishugou. When they got married, Father Huang ordered his eldest son to take five taels of silver to add makeup to his niece.
In the past few years, it has been quiet, and the cuckoo is too lazy to fight with her grandparents, anyway, Huang Que'er will get married in a few years, and when the time comes, the uncle dares not to take the corresponding silver to add makeup, she has a way to make them embarrassed, so she gives it as it is.
Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't want to tell outsiders about it.
Therefore, he replied: "I'm afraid that Brother Xiaobao's marriage is not so fast." I met several relatives but didn't succeed. β
Erya was not interested in the matter of the cuckoo's family's money, but she was just talking about it, so Cuckoo's answer was right to her heart.
She chuckled: "I can't see that your little brother is still picky." β
Huang Que'er continued: "Who doesn't pick?" If your brother doesn't choose, why didn't the people who looked at each other in the past succeed? β
Erya skipped her brother's scales and continued to ask Huang Xiaobao about the criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law: "Where did my brother choose, that is because people look down on my family." What kind of girl do you want to find? β
Pose as if you're listening to gossip.
Cuckoo wasn't suspicious, because she herself liked to hear about it.
The lives of these people are like stories, trivial to listen to, and very chewy to taste.
She smiled and said, "How can this be said? Probably there must be some fate. is the eldest granddaughter-in-law again, and my grandparents will inevitably be more careful when choosing people. β
There is another sentence she didn't say, that is, there is a lesson from Feng's past, grandparents are afraid that the granddaughter-in-law who will marry back is the same as the eldest daughter-in-law, but they don't have to open their eyes to pick.
The second girl was silent.
Before she knew it, her clothes had been washed, and she was still in a daze.
Until Huang Que'er asked, "Erya, have you washed it?" β
Er Ya hurriedly said: "Wash it." I'll go back first, and the whole family will be asleep. β
Picked up the wooden basin and hurried away.
After she left, Huang Que'er whispered to Du Juan: "What does she always ask Xiaobao for?" Didn't you fall in love with ......?"
The cuckoo was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "No! β
Huang Que'er glanced at her and said, "How could not! You're stupid. β
She always thought that the cuckoo was very smart and understood everything. When I got older, I suddenly found that this sister didn't actually understand everything, and sometimes she was very naΓ―ve. For example, Erya just now, she understood the little daughter's thoughts as soon as she heard them, but she couldn't hear them.
She didn't know that the cuckoo was older because of her mental age. If there is another person in my heart, how can I care about this. It's just gossip. If she had put her mind to it, she would have noticed it.
I saw Huang Que'er saying that he was stupid. The cuckoo couldn't help but laugh.
The two washed their clothes and turned to enter the hospital.
While drying clothes in the yard, Xia Sheng walked in and called softly, "Sparrow! Washed? β
Huang Que'er nodded and said, "You haven't slept yet, what are you doing?" β
Xia Sheng approached her, and it seemed that he had something to say to her.
Such a wonderful moment, the cuckoo didn't want to disturb them. Anyway, they are all married, and they are in their own courtyard again. Under the nose, there is no fear of something. Therefore, she looked up at the roof of the west wing of the Lin family, waving her hand.
The sound of the flute immediately stopped, Lin Chun raised his hand, and a rope flew down, with flying claws tied to the end of the rope, and hung on the wall of the Huangjiayuan wall.
The cuckoo stretched out her hand to hold the rope, and Lin Chun gently took a walk on it, and she stepped over the wall of her own courtyard and the wall of the Lin family's courtyard wall. flew on the tile surface of the west wing of the Lin family.
came to the roof, sat down beside Lin Chun, and chuckled: "It's better to be above, as soon as you come up, you feel open-minded." Why don't you practice yet? β
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but admire. While learning from himself, this child also learned carpentry, and his martial arts never left behind. Practice morning and evening, rain or shine. How many years are like a day.
Lin Chun looked at her and asked, "You're not going again?" β
The cuckoo said unashamedly: "No, I won't go." I'm so tired that my back hurts, and it's too late to sleep. I don't want to be a hero. Just get up every morning and practice again. β
When Lin Chun heard this, he looked at her and smiled.
As the two grew older, Du Juan's original earnest teachings to Lin Chun unconsciously became a consultation with him, and recently he often asked him for advice, and even began to rely on him in some matters.
This kind of change, even the cuckoo himself did not feel.
Lin Chun has always protected her as a matter of course, and he didn't feel it.
The cuckoo asked again, "Where is the tea tree you said in the afternoon?" Far from it? β
Lin Chun said: "It's far away. I'm afraid we'll have to run for four or five hours. β
If it weren't far away, the tea tree would have been discovered long ago.
The cuckoo said: "Then my sister won't be able to go." I'll take the oriole with me. β
It's not good for her to go out with Lin Chun alone, Huang Li is practicing martial arts, so take her there to exercise.
Lin Chun nodded and said, "Call Jiu'er a piece." If you go out of the city, you have to get some good things back. The day after tomorrow. The mountains in that place are high, and the tea leaves grow slowly, so you can't go early. β
The cuckoo nodded, looking around.
Sit high and see far.
The moonlit village is so beautiful that the mist is light!
After being silent for a while, she looked sideways at the courtyard below, Xia Sheng was showing something to Huang Que'er, and whispered. She smiled and said, "What did your brother do, mysterious and secretive?" β
Lin Chun glanced down and said, "Stone carving." He pondered every night and carved it for many days, according to the sister of the finch. I took it and thought it was carved. β
The cuckoo couldn't help but chuckle and said, "He also has a clear distinction between public and private, and he doesn't take up time to do work." Or are you afraid that your father will be scolded when he sees it? β
Lin Chun whispered: "No, it's because I'm afraid that people will see it." β
The cuckoo covered his mouth and snickered.
Although the two of them lowered their voices and spoke, Lin Datou in the east wing house opposite found out.
The man looked at the little girl sitting on the roof, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he tried his best to tolerate it.
That is, the cuckoo, if there is another person, he is afraid that he will immediately jump to his feet and scold.
That's the roof!
Women can't go up to the roof, otherwise the whole family will be unlucky!
The little girl didn't make it!
The good-looking little girl doesn't make it!
However, this little girl is not an ordinary little girl, it is the cuckoo who he wants to ask to be his daughter-in-law. It's so easy for her to sit with her son, it's night, and under such a beautiful moon, can he be so ignorant and destroy this pair?
Of course not!
He convinced himself: The cuckoo is not an ordinary little girl, she is the person who Yu Niangniang has saved, and she is blessed, so she can go to the roof!
After finding a reason, he went to sleep, and came to "out of sight and out of mind".
Since the day he saw the cuckoo, he had not had the upper hand in front of this girl, he was used to it. (To be continued......)
