Chapter 21 (Surprise)

Bai Cuicui has never been a procrastinator, and if she says it directly, she is an anxious person. So since he had decided that he was willing to marry that Han Jingsheng, he got up and walked to the bedroom of the white father and white mother.

"Cuicui, what's wrong, is there something to find your father?" Bai Dafu, who was sick in bed, first saw his eldest daughter who walked in, and couldn't help but ask out loud in confusion.

"Well, I want to discuss something with my parents." Seeing Father Bai speak, Bai Cuicui nodded and looked at them, and said calmly.

"What can't we talk about later? Didn't you see your dad drinking medicine? Lu Shi took the medicine and turned around and said to Bai Cuicui disapprovingly.

"Okay, maybe there's something important about my daughter." Father Bai patted his wife's hand to appease, then turned his head and whispered to Bai Cuicui, "Cuicui, do you want to say something to your father?" ”

Bai Cuicui saw that the Lu family was always finding fault with herself now, although she knew that she was angry with herself because of what had happened recently, but she still couldn't help but feel sour and uncomfortable in her heart. After all, she was so spoiled and maintained by herself at the beginning, she couldn't imagine it in the blink of an eye...... Is it really like the old saying "love is like a treasure, and discarding it is like a mustard"? In this case, why should I be so good to myself in the first place, it is better to keep the same as now, at least not to let myself have any unrealistic extravagant expectations. Oh, family affection......

Although Bai Cuicui thought a lot there, it was actually only a matter of a moment, so as soon as she heard Bai's father's question, she took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I know that the current situation at home is not good......

"Since you know, don't come here again to make trouble, do things obediently, and I will take care of your mother." Lu didn't wait for Bai Cuicui to finish speaking, and then interrupted impatiently.

"No, I mean, I'm willing to marry Han Jingsheng." Bai Cuicui saw that the Lu family didn't even want to listen to her finish speaking, so she didn't wait for her to make a sound to drive people away, so she quickly interjected.

"What? Cuicui you...... Do you know what you're talking about? As soon as Bai Dafu heard his eldest daughter's words, he said with wide eyes in disbelief.

"I know what I'm talking about, and I'm not kidding." Bai Cuicui looked at Father Bai's eyes firmly, and said slowly: "I'm fourteen years old, not young, there is such a big thing in the family, I ...... I also have a responsibility to help my family through this. ”

"I have a good idea with your mother about this, you don't have to worry about it, not to mention that there is no food at home, why do you want a girl to come out of the top tank. It's just nonsense. Hearing this, Father Bai was so angry that his pale face began to flush unnaturally.

And Lu on the side listened quietly to the conversation between the eldest daughter and her husband, although she couldn't bear to let the eldest daughter jump into the fire pit, but it was impossible for her to pretend that the eldest daughter was alone, "What if...... If Cuicui is willing to marry herself, then the life of the family will be much better now, and she didn't force her by herself, she just didn't speak, not to mention that the family has become like this, she can't get out of it, right? So, she didn't do anything wrong, she was just atoning for her sins. ’

Bai Cuicui didn't know what Lu was thinking, but seeing that she had sat there with her head down and silent since she said that she was willing to marry Han Jingsheng, she knew her attitude. So he quickly shifted his gaze and stopped looking at her, relieved his breath, and forced back the tears that wanted to fall in his eyes, and then bowed his head to Father Bai with red eyes and said, "Our family still has food to eat, but how long can those two bags of brown rice last?" There are still a few months left in the spring, and our family has no income now, and your illness is cured, so you should also recuperate for a while. But the family can't just drink porridge and not eat vegetables. Now the weather is getting colder and colder, and there are not many wild vegetables in the mountains. If there is no one to help them, how can such a large family live? Even if we want to borrow from others, but everyone has a family to support, how much can we borrow for no reason? ”

In fact, there is another sentence that Bai Cuicui did not say, the reason why everyone was so enthusiastic to help their family when they separated was because they sympathized with their own suffering, but also because they saw that Bai's father had some skills in the past, so when they saw that their family was separated, they felt that maybe without the drag of that family, life would be better. After all, not everyone is like Bai Gao's and them, stupidly doing things to "kill chicken eggs".

But now it's different from the past, because under Bai's father's illness, everything is different, that is, Lu told others that Bai's father was just suffering from heat stroke, who would believe it? Everyone is not stupid, and some of them are often not very clear, but they still know whether Bai's father's illness is heat stroke, and this is in ancient times and not in modern times when medicine is developed, where a small wind and cold may kill people. Naturally, everyone is even more reluctant to lend their own money to their own family, if the disease is not cured, then their money is not wasted? It's just human nature.

"Enough, don't say any more." Seeing that the eldest daughter had dissected everything one by one, Father Bai could no longer deceive himself, so he beat the bed board with a painful face, and said in a hoarse voice with tears in his eyes: "It's all my fault as a father, I'm sorry for you, if I hadn't fallen ill at the beginning, where would I have become what I am today." It's me, it's me, the sick ghost who can't die, that drags you down. ”

"No, master, how can I blame you for this, where did you know that this kind of thing would happen, this ...... It's our life. Seeing her husband's painful appearance, Lu was worried that his condition would worsen, so she quickly took her husband's hand and comforted him.

Bai Cuicui saw the appearance of the white father and the white mother crying, and she didn't know what to do, although her heart was also faintly throbbing, the tears seemed to flow to her heart, and she never saw a trace of it. So she just calmly said to Bai's father and Bai's mother: "That Han Jingsheng said that he would visit his father again in a few days, and then his mother would mention this matter to him." In addition, I used red rope to weave some auspicious knots a few days ago, thinking that this thing should be able to be used as a singular thing, selling for some price, and my mother will find a time to go to the county to see if she can sell it. With that, Bai Cuicui took out some Chinese knots from his sleeve and handed them to Lu on the side.

"What, how can you also weave auspicious knots?" As soon as Lu saw what his eldest daughter took out, he also came back to his senses, and was immediately taken aback. "I only know this thing from other people's mouths, saying that it once appeared in a neighboring county town."

Compared with Lu's surprise, Bai Cuicui was really taken aback now, after all, Lu's words just now could not be said to make her think deeply, because what Lu said is such a thing, but Bai Cuicui can only be found in modern countries, and now it appeared in this otherworldly ancient world earlier, doesn't it also mean that there are really other time-travelers who arrived here earlier than her?
