Chapter 15 The Sun Family Proposes Marriage

Mrs. Chen sat on the bench and took the hymn score to look at it carefully, but Si Xiao was not by her side, it turned out that she had gone to meet an important father with Chen Dashuai. The piano sounded at one www.biquge.info a while, the priest presided over the ceremony, the choir sang the praises of God's grace, and everyone sang in harmony, solemn and beautiful, and even more wonderful was that the aunt who was in a hurry to pat the horse sat next to Mrs. Chen, and because of the solemnity of the ceremony, she could not open a word, and purified the ears of everyone.

The priest spoke on the stage in simple terms, and the words were also moving, and he spoke for more than an hour, and after prayers, blessings, and ode to Amen, the service was over, and some of the people went out, and some stayed to talk to the priest. Si Ling stood up with Mrs. Chen's arm around him, and said idly: "Mother, you are too late, and I didn't see an old man who was in a hurry, and a doctor saved him." I've never seen such a person in this parish, do you have an impression, mother? Such a height, such an age, such hair and eyes. ”

Xu Ning quietly pricked up his ears. It was rare for Mrs. Chen to hear her daughter talk about the young boy, and she thought about it with all her heart, but she didn't remember such a person. The aunt next to her leaned over and said, "I just helped save people, I also saw it, it seems to be Brother Jiang and Sister Liu's son who went to a foreign country to study medicine, called Chu Ren." ”

Saying this, Si Ling also had an impression: "Didn't you say it a few years ago, and now you're back?" ”

The aunt said: "A few years ago, we didn't fight a war, chaos! The Jiang brothers and his wife were careful, so they told him to stay outside, work in the foreign hospital, and simply not come back. Not long ago, his contract with the foreign hospital expired, and our Renai Hospital heard about his reputation and hired him with a lot of money, so he came back. ”

Mrs. Chen smiled: "Nowadays, the world is not very peaceful. ”

The aunt laughed: "Not really. However, this kid has never been married outside, foreign girls, the Jiang brothers and his wife are not very happy, and he himself can't look down on them, what about our Chinese girls, after all, there are fewer over there, and even fewer suitable ones. The Jiang brothers and his wife asked him to come back, which also meant to renew the incense. ”

Mrs. Chen joked with her: "You know it clearly, it's like your own affairs." ”

The aunt recited the holy name and said, "It's a pity that I don't have a girl in the family who can match him, otherwise, I would have inquired more clearly!" ”

Mrs. Chen smiled and glanced at Si Ling, who also curled the corners of her lips, but glanced at Xu Ning. Xu Ning's face was hot, don't look over.

A group of four people had their own thoughts, out of the church, the Chen family's black Austin six-cylinder car was already waiting at the door, the driver jumped down to open the door for the lady, well-proportioned, wearing hazel breeches and a white shirt, black eyelashes, and a resolute chin, but he was thinking about it. Si Ling shouted happily, jumped over and pounced on Si Xiao, Si Xiao caught her, spun around and put it down. Si Ling asked, "What about you?" Mrs. Chen also asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Si Xiao nodded to Xu Ning, and replied to his mother and sister with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm here to pick you up." The Red House restaurant booked a seat, and my father said that he would pick me up, Aunt Zhu and the others went over first, and I came to pick you up with me. With a wave of his hand, Xu Ning was also included.

Si Ling pulled Xu Ning up: "Let's go together!" ”

Mrs. Chen froze, nodded and smiled: "It's going together!" A-Ning is now like our family, go to dinner together, and make us daughters-in-law! ”

Xu Ning was so frightened that he didn't know how to answer, and Si Ling said angrily: "Mother, what are you talking about!" ”

"Really, I'm so confused," Mrs. Chen said to her, "the Sun family has proposed to Sixiao, and I'm still joking." ”

Xu Ning was stunned, and Si Ling was shocked: "Sister Sun? When was this? Si Xiao frowned a little: "Mother, there is no such thing." ”

"How?" Mrs. Chen was surprised, "When you saw Uncle Sun just now, didn't he say anything?" Mrs. Sun fell in front of me and told me everything! They said that they would be blessed to be able to have you as a half-son. Speaking of this, he smiled, "You know that I have always been proud of you, and I am a little ashamed to hear people praise you like this-why is the Sun family not in the red house now?" ”

Si Xiao had no choice but to reply: "Yes." ”

Mrs. Chen said: "Look at what shame you are so embarrassed about this child, Miss Sun is in the school next to you in Beiping, and she is on the same train on the return trip, why don't you see shame when you help her carry her suitcase and get off the platform-A-Ning, you want to come, you must come." Miss Sun is both talented and good-looking, and our A-Ning is not bad, so let's sit at a table and go to Bibi! ”

Si Xiao said: "Mother! "I'm really angry this time.

Xu Ning retreated, Si Ling grabbed Xu Ning, and Si Xiao coughed: "It's getting late, I'm afraid Master Xu and his wife will have to worry at home." Let's send Sister Ning home first. ”

Xu Ning nodded, and shook his head again: "Thank you, I'll go by myself." ”

Si Ling also wanted to pull her into the car, Xu Ning pulled Si Ling's hand, let her body block the sight of Si Xiao and Mrs. Chen, shook her head again and again, Si Ling saw that her face was full of pity, tears were about to burst out of her eyes, like a little rabbit that was forced to break, stunned, as soon as her hand was loosened, Xu Ning had already run away. Si Ling hurriedly chased after him: "I'll help you call a rickshaw." "I sent her back, and Mrs. Chen has urged her several times. The three of them sat in the car, silent for a while, red and white lights flowed outside the window, and Si Xiao said, "Sister Ning seems to have grown taller?" ”

Si Ling snorted: "What about when people are children?" Also tall! Don't wear leather shoes with high heels? ”

"It's not a child anymore." Si Xiao sighed and said, "You don't have to take her here and there, and people have their own opinions." ”

Mrs. Chen knew that her words were a bit heavy just now, waiting for her children to question, but she didn't expect Si Xiao to be so sensible, and her heart warmed. Si Ling was angry, Si Xiao turned to Mrs. Chen and said, "Mother, I'm not a child anymore." ”

Mrs. Chen was stunned, raised her eyes to see the night light drifting off, his resolute side lines, and let out a long breath: "You have your own idea about marriage, I don't care." ”

Xu Ning came home, her spirit was not very good, Xu's mother was tired of her, urged her to rest quickly, she refused to go, filled water to wash her handkerchief, a total of two, Xu's mother naturally saw it, and asked, "Where did it come from?" Xu Ning replied: "Someone in the church was sick, and a doctor helped to save the person, and accidentally fell off." ”

The tone was as usual, and she didn't say the doctor's age, so Xu's mother didn't take it to heart. Xu Ning rubbed his handkerchief, buried his head in watching the snow-white foam piled up high on the linen yarn and rose red cotton handkerchief, and then was carried away by the water, and suddenly asked his mother: "Mom, why don't you believe in religion?" ”

Mother Xu responded: "Look at this dead girl! They smoke the 'eleventh tax'! Who has this spare money to serve. "It's a church rule: out of 10 of your income is to be donated to the church. Xu Ning didn't make any income left and right, so if he went to listen to the lecture, Xu's mother would forget it. If she wants to enter by herself, she will feel sorry for this for the first time.

"Actually, the money you stuffed into the hands of monks and nuns is almost enough!" Xu Ning said.

Mother Xu was surprised: "You only went for one night, and you asked your mother to join the church?" What kind of Ecstasy do they do? ”

Xu Ning hung up the handkerchief, looked at the quiet moon behind the two handkerchiefs, one large and one small, and sighed faintly: "Mom, that's not what I mean, I went to sleep." ”

Mother Xu didn't sleep, stood under the eaves, thinking about the scene where her daughter had no head and no brains to ask, and looked at the moon and sighed, and said, "This girl has really grown into an adult, right?" "I don't know if my heart is sour or happy.
