Chapter Twenty-Three: The Shadow of the Young Man Comes
"I want it too, I want it too. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Gu Sanniang pestered Chen's coquettishness, "Mother, you are eccentric, only for Siniang to paint so good-looking, I want to paint it too." ”
"We want it too." Gu Yuanniang and Gu Erniang also spoke one after another.
Chen was very helpless, and looked at his daughters funny, "Okay, okay, they all look at me like this." What a big deal. After lunch, I will come over, and my mother will draw you one by one. ”
After lunch, Gu Yuanniang, Gu Erniang, and Gu Sanniang all went to Chen's room, and Gu Siniang moved a small stool to wipe the persimmons picked back in the yard, and then put them into the cleaned jar one by one.
"Are you sure you want to shave your eyebrows?" Chen looked at the three daughters in front of him with some surprise, very incomprehensible.
"We've decided, mother, you can help us turn into the same eyebrows as Siniang." Gu Yuanniang looked at Chen and said.
"That's right, Siniang's eyebrows are so good-looking, since we are sisters, we naturally have to draw the same one to look good." Gu Erniang also answered.
"Mother, don't hesitate, we have to help Siniang get persimmons." Gu Sanniang couldn't help but urge when she saw Chen's hesitant appearance.
Chen was very helpless, she was a little sad, where did the education of these daughters deviate, and there was such a strange aesthetic.
Gu Siniang's eyebrows were burned by the fire, and there was no way for her to replace them, but her three daughters' eyebrows were obviously very beautiful, how could they make such a request.
But they all looked very serious, which made her unsure, is there such a big gap between the aesthetics of girls and her.
Not long after Gu Siniang was in the courtyard, she saw her three sisters walking out of the house, all of their eyebrows were shaved, and they used snails to draw the same shape of eyebrows as her.
"You guys? How can eyebrows .....? Gu Siniang was stunned, these three people stood in front of her, drawing exactly the same eyebrows, how awkward it looked.
"Why are you allowed to secretly become good-looking, can't we?" Gu Sanniang came over and looked at her with big eyes and a smile.
"Well, it's not." Gu Siniang hurriedly shook her head, but the problem was that her eyebrows were burned.
"What are you still standing for, so many persimmons, you have to finish it today, hurry up." Gu Yuanniang quickly glanced at the persimmons in the yard, said hello, and then squatted down and took the lead.
Gu Erniang and Gu Sanniang also followed suit, leaving Gu Siniang alone to stand in place and look at the three sisters.
The autumn breeze rose, and the coolness hit, but Gu Siniang felt that there was a bright flame burning wantonly along the wind at a certain point in her heart, and this warm feeling quickly spread throughout her body.
She is not really only five years old, how can she not understand why the three sisters in front of her shaved their eyebrows, just because they were afraid that she would be sad without her eyebrows, so they simply shaved them all and accompanied her.
For a moment, his eyes were a little moist, and the indescribable feeling was blocked in his heart, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he felt that it was not necessary.
"Siniang, what are you doing in a daze, give me the persimmons in that basket." Gu Sanniang was busy, looked back at her and shouted.
"It's coming!" Gu Siniang came back to her senses and got busy.
Standing by the door and looking at the busy appearance of the four girls in the courtyard, the corners of Chen's mouth slightly hooked up a smile.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Dazhuang walked over and reached out to hold Chen's somewhat cool hand, "The autumn breeze is cold, why are you still wearing so little?" ”
"It's not cold at home, and besides, I'm so delicate." Chen turned around and smiled, and entered the house with Gu Dazhuang.
Inside the house, Chen lowered his head and was doing needlework, and Gu Dazhuang sat quietly on the side, drinking water cup by cup, occasionally looking up at Chen, looking like he wanted to say something.
"Dazhuang, do you have something to tell me?" Chen asked as he put aside the half-sewn garment.
"No, no." Gu Dazhuang hurriedly shook his head, took the water cup and drank another big glass.
"What are you doing with so much water, and you are lying to me. Your face is full of the word "something". Chen said angrily.
"Well, I wanted to ask you about that thrush conch." Gu Dazhuang was a little hesitant, and his voice was obviously uneasy. glanced up at Chen, and saw that her expression naturally didn't look like anything, so her heart relaxed a little.
"Luo Zidai." Chen sighed lightly and reluctantly corrected, "I still can't remember after so many years." ”
"Hey, hey. I just can't remember the name of that crepe. Gu Dazhuang grinned.
"I know what you want to ask, what do you remember about what happened so many years ago?" Chen looked at him funny, his voice was always gentle, "That thing has been put for so many years and it is really a waste, if it weren't for Siniang's eyebrows burning this time, I wouldn't have remembered this." ”
I don't know why, when Gu Dazhuang heard her say this, his heart was obviously relieved, and his voice unconsciously brought some joy, "Eh, I just said that my mother thought too much." ”
"Okay, you can rest assured, go outside to help your daughters. I'm going to get my clothes out of the way. Next month is my mother's birthday. Chen lowered his eyes, reached out and tucked up the broken hair next to his ear, and his voice was very calm.
Gu Dazhuang nodded hurriedly, and went out with a smile, and soon remembered a burst of cheerful laughter in the courtyard.
Chen listened to the voice quietly, and the little irritability in his heart disappeared, and he took out a handkerchief from his arms, put it in the palm of his hand and opened it, revealing a small snail dai inside.
She looked at it for a long time, and finally all the thoughts in her mind turned into a low sigh.
"A whirlpool of clouds, a shuttle of jade, a thin shirt and a thin Luo, a light snail." There seemed to be a low smile in his ears, "Qing'er, this is for you." ”
Her heart still inevitably hurt, she rewrapped the handkerchief, picked up the needle and thread, and slowly sewed the padded jacket in her hand.
"Qing'er, you are so good-looking, I will definitely marry you as a lady in the future." The boy stood in the sunlight, grinning, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth.
"Then you have to be the champion." The young girl covered her lips and smiled, her face delicate like a magnolia blooming in March.
"Okay, I'll definitely get the top prize." The young man swore and said, "You wait for me to come back and marry you." ”
The young girl's face was red, and her heart seemed to be beating like a deer, and she covered her face and ran away.
"Ahh With a low exclamation, a silver needle pierced his finger, and red blood oozed out.
Chen hurriedly put his finger in his mouth and held it, and when he looked up, he saw Ma standing at the door with an indifferent gaze.
"Ahh Mother! Obviously startled, with panic, he hurriedly stood up, with his head down like a child who had done something wrong, "Why are you here?" ”
