Chapter 19: An Unexpected Guest
I rushed to the market to buy meat, and when I got home, it was past lunch time, Sang Yu was talking to the pheasant she named Xiaolu in the house, Lin Dashan thought about the two of them this morning, and they didn't eat anything, just get a dish to fill their stomachs first, and then say, the meat, first ice it with well water, this weather is so big, don't spoil the smell.

Maybe it was too hot, Sang Yu only ate a small bowl of rice at noon, and then put the bowl away. Lying on the bed, holding Lin Dashan's homemade pu fan in one hand to cool off.
Lin Dashan ate dinner, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, left the cool bed still on the ground, and began to take a nap.
Sang Yu actually didn't fall asleep, she was still excited, and now she has two taels of silver in her hand, so she only sells things twice, as long as she sells it a few more times, will she be able to make more money, when the time comes, when she walks out of this remote mountain village, there will always be a world outside that belongs to her.
It's just that Lin Dashan will be sad at that time. has been here for so long, Lin Dashan is the best and best person for her, if she leaves, Lin Dashan is afraid that she will be sad.
But do you want to stay here for the rest of your life? Is this kind of life really what you want?
Sang Yu thought about it and fell asleep in a daze.
In the afternoon, Jiang came and brought a few fresh cucumbers, and the two talked about talking and agreed to go together next time.
After Jiang left, Sang Yu looked at the tender green cucumber, and couldn't help but pick it up and nibble on it. It's really very crisp, and the lips and teeth are full of the fragrance of plants.
Lin Dashan had already gotten up, sitting under the eaves and weaving things with bamboo strips, and Sang Yu had nothing to do, gnawing on a small bench at the end of a cucumber and sitting next to him. also said that she would ask Lin Dashan to help her weave a small basket, and she would go into the mountains to pick mushrooms in the future. Lin Dashan smiled, "There are a lot of mushrooms in the mountains that can't be eaten, they are all poisonous. ”
Sang Yu didn't follow, the cucumber was wrapped in his mouth, his cheeks were bulging, and his eyes were staring at Lin Dashan, "I'm just going to pick mushrooms, I don't eat them, I picked them to play." You don't want to weave a small basket for me. ”
looked at Lin Dashan unrelentingly, without even blinking his eyes. It's really more serious.
Lin Dashan especially likes Sang Yu to be coquettish to him, that little appearance is pretty, which really makes him have no resistance. Of course, he didn't want to be resistant.
"Okay, make it up for you, whatever else you want, make it up for you."
Sang Yu wanted to get a satisfactory answer, gnawed a bite of cucumber, threw away the cucumber in his hand, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, his eyes narrowed slightly, "It's about the same, I also need a small basket for needlework, well, it's best to have a small dustpan, which can dry the mushrooms I picked up and turn them into dried mushrooms." ”
Sang Yu still didn't give up on her mushrooms, Lin Dashan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I will go to the mountains with you to pick up mushrooms when the time comes." ”
The two were talking happily when they heard a shrill and delicate voice.
Sang Yu looked up and saw that the man was wearing a peach-colored dress, and a handful of green silk was combed into the women's hair bun that could be seen everywhere in the mountain village, but the side of the bun was wearing a lot of pink silk flowers, and it looked more flamboyant. The appearance is not good-looking, but the pair of Danfeng eyes are slightly distinctive, and the slightly upturned corners of the eyes have a coquettish feeling. At the moment, she was standing outside the courtyard and looking at this side with raised eyebrows.
"Yo, big brother, you're having a good day." Lin Lanxiang stood outside the courtyard gate, in the past few days, Lin Dashan has cut a lot of bamboo, and surrounded his yard with a bamboo fence, looking a little better, but the thatched house is low and low, Lin Lanxiang can't help but curl the corners of her mouth, with a look of disdain. She already knew about Lin Dashan's separation, and she also knew what the house she got was like, it was still the ancestral house where her grandfather used to live, and later a new house was built, and this house was never inhabited again, it was in disrepair, and even the naughtiest children in the village didn't want to come here to play. Now that the yard is full of bamboo and wood, it is even more dirty, and Lin Lanxiang feels that she doesn't even know where to put her feet. Well, if it weren't for that, she wouldn't be here.
Lin Dashan was talking to Sang Yu, and when he looked up, it was his eldest sister Lin Lanxiang, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a sincere smile, and there was still a little happiness on his face. Hurriedly stood up, "Why is the eldest sister back, what are you doing standing outside, hurry up and enter the house." It's just that there's nothing to clean up in this house, and there's not even a place to stand, hey. Lin Dashan was busy beckoning Lin Lanxiang into the house, looking for a stool and pouring water.
That Lin Lanxiang only stood at the door, with a disdainful smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't seem to take Lin Dashan's busyness in her eyes.
As soon as Sang Yu heard the words of the two, she knew that the woman was Lin Dashan's sister, thinking of the Wang family, Sang Yu couldn't help frowning, she didn't have any good feelings about the Lin family at all now, probably because of what others said. She felt that she couldn't blame herself, who told that just to ask for a needle and thread that time, she made herself look like she was going to rob.
Therefore, when he saw Lin Dashan looking for a stool all over the house, Sang Yu didn't let go of the only small bench he was sitting on, and he didn't even lift his buttocks, but just supported his chin with both hands, looking at Lin Lanxiang with a smile, and what curiosity was waiting in his eyes.
Lin Dashan looked for a bench, but in the end he didn't find it. He has been making bamboo fences for the past few days, and even Sang Yu's small bamboo bench is still something she strongly asks to do. Lin Dashan remembered the small bench in the kitchen where he was sitting, touched his head with a smile, looked at Lin Lanxiang with some embarrassment and said, "Eldest sister, the stools at home have been moved by your second sister-in-law, and I have been busy these days and have no time to do it, so you can sit down." Yes. You're tired of walking, I'll pour you a glass of water. So saying, he went back into the house again.
Lin Lanxiang didn't plan to sit and chat about anything, she squinted her eyes and glanced at the bench where Lin Dashan was sitting just now, hmph, that kind of thing is also worthy of her to sit on, she is wearing a new skirt, if it gets dirty, what can I do. Besides, his eldest brother has never known that he is spinning in the field, and his body is full of mud, so he sits, and he is not allowed to touch the soil, and she has only worn this skirt for the first time.
Hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need big brother, I'll just stand, our brothers and sisters haven't talked together for a long time, you see I married in the town, and I don't come back often on weekdays." Yo, this is my sister-in-law. It's so beautiful. Lin Lanxiang looked at Sang Yu, who was curious about the baby, and asked.
Now Sang Yu finally had something else in his eyes. This is the first time that someone in the Lin family has taken the initiative to notice him, and he still calls himself sister-in-law. This is a strange thing. Sang Yu's originally curious gaze was filled with scrutiny.
Lin Dashan's most precious thing is his daughter-in-law, although the old man Li in the village said that she couldn't have children, but he was the baby her, and he was reluctant to let her suffer a little grievance, of course, he also hoped that everyone would like her.
On weekdays, Sang Yu never goes to the Lin family, sometimes she wants to go to see her father and mother, let Sang Yu be with her, she is unwilling, she would rather stay in the house in a daze, and she is not willing to force her. Sang Yu rarely goes out, of course, now that the weather is hot, she doesn't want her to go out, so she can only say a few more words to Sister-in-law He. The eldest sister came for the first time after she broke up, and she called Sang Yu to call her sister-in-law, and even the younger sister Lixiang never shouted. shouted Lin Dashan's heart was sweet, and he couldn't say how happy he felt.
Afraid that Sang Yu would not be willing, he looked at Sang Yu cautiously, and was relieved to see that there was no anger on her face.
Sang Yu saw that he said himself, and he couldn't pretend not to hear it, but he didn't want to talk more, so he only said lightly, "Hello." ”
And he was speechless and speechless. Sitting on a low stool playing with your fingers. I don't know if it's because I've cooked too much, but I feel like my fingers are getting thicker. Sang Yu pointed his finger in the direction of the sun, and the snow-white fingers in the sunlight almost became transparent, and it seemed that there was still no change.
Lin Lanxiang thought that Sang Yu would say a few more words in her eldest brother's face, but there were no two words, and she didn't greet her to sit and drink tea or anything, so she actually played with her fingers, and she was still waiting for her next words with a smile on her face. Immediately, it was difficult to look on the face.
Looking at Sang Yu's fair and beautiful little face again, he suddenly felt even more displeased. Even he is twenty-four years old, and his eldest brother is almost thirty years old, if you want to find someone about the same age, this sister-in-law heard that she is only fifteen years old, younger than herself, and about the same age as Lixiang. Thinking of Liu Changxian, the son of her family, she was even more disgusted with Sang Yu in her heart. Even his brows couldn't help but furrow.
It seems that this man loves beauty.
Lin Dashan saw that Lin Lanxiang had been standing outside and didn't come in, so he thought about whether his yard was too messy, the eldest sister married into the city, she must have loved neatness and got used to it, and she really didn't know what to do in her yard. Hurriedly piled the bamboo and wood in the yard to the side.
Sang Yu didn't speak, just watched Lin Dashan with such interest and sweat, even Lin Lanxiang didn't say a word to help. His mouth is homely, but his eyes are full of impatience.
Lin Lanxiang entered the house, Lin Dashan poured her a bowl of water, Lin Lanxiang didn't look at it, and she didn't even raise her hand.
"I said, big brother, it's time for you to rest in this house. You look at the roof, it's full of holes, and you sleep in this room at night, and you can even see the stars in the sky. What can I do if it rains? You see, you don't even have a door, your sister-in-law is so young and delicate, what if there is a thief in the house one day, what can you do. ”
Lin Lanxiang frowned deeply, looking like she was thinking about him.
When Lin Dashan heard this, especially the last sentence, his heart was raised. Yes, Sang Yu is so good-looking, if something happens, how can I be worthy of her. Lin Dashan couldn't even think about it. Looking at my house again, it is indeed too simple and not safe at all. I hated my wooden mind again, I didn't expect it, and I was very satisfied with my current life.
