Chapter 19 (Door-to-door)
The morning sun, as big as a wheel, and as bright red as molten iron, with a thin burst of light, lifted the veil of mist from the ridge in the east.
In the Bai family's old house, Bai Cuicui has long been familiar with this "beautiful scenery", after all, if anyone can't even solve the basic survival problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation, then how can they be in the mood to enjoy this "beautiful scenery"? What's more, there have been many disasters in the family in recent days, and there is always a low and depressing atmosphere. Although, she also comforted herself silently in her heart, her mother's recent change in her attitude towards her is that she thinks too much, but people's feelings are sometimes very sensitive, who is good or bad to whom, where can I not feel it?
She was once glad that she also had a valuable family affection, but she didn't expect that a qiē was actually a mirror flower, less than two months of hard work, and the reality gave her a slap in the face, heh, what doesn't belong to her is how to cherish and work hard, in the end it's just a void? However, what did she do wrong, why did she blame everything on her, she was jealous of a man and embarrassed her family? Or did she instigate Bai Gao's party to sweep her house out? Obviously, it was not what she wanted, but why did she have to swallow the final bitter fruit by herself?
Bai Cuicui sat on the edge of the well and pounded the clothes inside with a wooden basin, while silently wiping away her tears, and laughed at herself in her heart, "Forget it, Bai Cuicui, do you really think you are the original owner?" What does it matter what they think of you? Anyway, you have nothing to do with them, so it's okay to save yourself too much emotion. ’
And when Bai Cuicui was still mourning and pitying herself in the courtyard, a tall and handsome young man outside the courtyard gate had already observed her through the fence for a long time, and from his dark and bright eyes, he seemed to be very satisfied, so he stroked the new clothes he had specially changed this morning, looked at the gift in his hand, and smiled and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Bai Cuicui quickly stopped working, wiped her hands, stepped forward and stood behind the door and asked, "Who is outside the door?" Is there any? ”
"I'm Han Jingsheng from a nearby house, and I heard that Uncle Bai is sick, so I want to come and visit." Han Jingsheng squinted his eyes when he heard Bai Cuicui's crisp voice, and hurriedly replied, As for the real purpose of coming here, he will naturally know it in the future.
It turns out that he is the evil star that the people in the village say, but according to his memory, he doesn't have any intersection with him on weekdays. What kind of disease is this? Although Bai Cuicui was puzzled, there was no reason to block people out of the door, not to mention that people were here to visit the sick. Immediately, he was stunned and answered, and quickly pulled the door bolt open and invited someone in.
"Cuicui, who's here?" Lu heard the eldest daughter talking to someone in the yard, and couldn't help but come out of the house and ask.
"Auntie, it's my Jingsheng, I heard that Uncle Bai is sick, so I came to visit him." When Han Jingsheng saw the Lu family coming out, he didn't wait for Bai Cuicui to speak, and hurriedly replied.
When Lu Shi looked at Han Jingsheng standing in the courtyard, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then said unnaturally: "Oh, it turned out to be Jingsheng, you have a heart, my aunt is here to thank you first, but your Uncle Bai has just fallen asleep." I can only wronged you for a trip in vain. Lu actually vaguely knew the purpose of his coming, but no matter how much she thought that the recent incident was caused by her eldest daughter, it was just a guess, even if it was true, she would not push her daughter into the fire pit because of this, after all, she was pregnant and gave birth in October, where would she be willing to give it. Naturally, he can only perfunctory.
"It's okay, since Uncle Bai is asleep, then I won't bother him, but if my aunt has anything, go to me for help, then I'll come to see Uncle Bai in a few days, and I'll give these things to Uncle Bai to make up for his body." After Han Jingsheng finished speaking, he put down his things, and without waiting for Lu's refusal, he nodded, turned around and strode towards the door.
The Lu family didn't want to accept Han Jingsheng's things, but as soon as the people put down the gift and left, she was embarrassed to refuse again, opened her mouth and closed it, and finally had to pick up the things and plan to accept them first.
Bai Cuicui stood aside and watched the development of the whole thing, but the more she looked at it, the more confused she became, and after thinking about it, she still opened her mouth and asked, "Mother, why is this Han Jingsheng so concerned about our family's affairs for no reason?" ”
"Hmph, why else, isn't it that people have taken a fancy to you, so they came here to offer their courtesy." Bai Dongye turned lazily from the side, glanced at Bai Cuicui, and said disdainfully.
"What? Mother, is what Dongye said true? Bai Cuicui really didn't know anything about this matter, after all, due to the big push at home recently, she rarely went out, and she couldn't help but ask Lu Shi in astonishment.
"Okay, you don't care what he does, anyway, your father and mother will plan it for you, and you don't need to worry about the rest." Lu Shi frowned when he heard his eldest daughter's question, and then said to her impatiently.
Bai Cuicui saw that the Lu family obviously didn't want to pay attention to herself, and she didn't want to talk to herself, so she stopped making a sound, turned around and planned to go back to the well to wash her clothes again.
Bai Dongye saw that his mother was gone, and he didn't want to have such an opportunity to ridicule Bai Cuicui, so he followed behind Bai Cuicui and laughed at himself: "Why have people already come to the door, are you still in the mood to wash clothes?" If you want me to say, if you still have a conscience, you should agree to other people's family affairs, so that the family will be better, and it will not be in vain that we were so miserable by you. ”
"Shut up for me, I'll take care of it myself, and you don't want to splash anything dirty and smelly on me, otherwise, since the family is already so difficult, then I don't mind pulling you to hell with me." Bai Cuicui suddenly turned around when she heard this, stared at Bai Dongye with a cold face, and said with a resolute threat.
"You ......" Bai Dongye pointed at Bai Cuicui "you" for a long time, but she didn't finish the words, after all, although she usually looks at Bai Cuicui very unpleasantly, and she also builds her happiness on her pain, but she doesn't plan to die with her Bai Cuicui, it seems that she has been forced too hard recently, and she even said this kind of thing, although Bai Dongye thinks that she shouldn't do stupid things, but she is not afraid of 10,000 just in case, she doesn't want to die young. So he only dared to glare at her, turned around and walked away quickly.
Bai Cuicui saw that her "second sister" was finally deceived by herself, and suddenly felt that the surroundings were not only much cleaner, but also the air was fresh, in fact, Bai Dongye guessed correctly, it was impossible for her to have to drag her to die for her words, after all, there was only one life, and it was impossible for God to give her another chance to cross, and it was not her style to die or live for this matter. It's just that you can still think about the thing that Bai Dongye said about Han Jingsheng's request to marry him......
