In the next few days, Zhao Ruoxin and Pu Suhua did not go to the wheat field by the Darong River, Pu Suhua always went to comb Zhao Ruoxin's hair and wash her face early in the morning, and dressed her up beautifully in the yard to learn the piano, fortunately, the old lady and lady in the backyard did not come often, otherwise there would definitely be some moths coming out, and the maid and the young lady reversed, which was repaid.

Pu Yi's face is getting worse and worse, every time he returns home, Aunt Cao always sighs and sighs for a while, as the people by the Darong River said, none of the veterans who came back from the Northern Desert have no old injuries on their bodies, if Pu Yi falls, this Pufu will be over.

In the middle of the night, Pu Changqin returned to the courtyard and went directly to the backyard to rest, this young master of the Pu family, who always likes to nag and complain, seems to have no strength to complain.

Steward Qiao walked in from outside with a lame sigh, a face that was already stained with wind and frost was a little peeling, and Aunt Cao, who always said that he was a toad and wanted to eat swan meat, came up from the laundry basin and wiped her hands worriedly, stretching her wet sleeves and wiping his face: "Old Qiao, you take it easy, if you have three long and two short, how lonely it must be to leave the old woman and me alone in this yard!" ”

Steward Qiao grinned, stretched out his calloused hand to help her pick up the hanging ear hair, and said weakly: "Take care of it, it's still like flowers, I said apricots, why aren't you old, it's still as beautiful as when you were sixteen years old!" ”

Aunt Cao's face was so red with shame that she didn't use any strength at all, and with a gentle push, Steward Qiao staggered back a few steps, and almost sat on the ground.

Aunt Cao was so frightened that tears came out, and hurriedly pulled him back: "I said Old Qiao, you can't scare me, go, old woman, I'll take you to see Langzhong." ”

Steward Qiao smiled weakly with a pair of cracked lips, pulled Aunt Cao's arm and said, "Xing, do you remember when I saw you that year?" You stand in the river and wash your clothes, the peach blossoms bloom bright on the top of your head, the moment you turn back. The petals on her head fell and she was as beautiful as a bride."

Aunt Cao touched a handful of tears: "I remember when you were always riding a big horse, and the earthen wall of my house was missing a corner, and you always hid somewhere to peek." Cheng Liang Cheng Liang didn't fit well at all, his face was white and clean, like a scholar rushing to take the exam, my mother always praised you for saying that this young man was handsome. ”

Steward Qiao smiled happily, his face full of yearning. The voice is getting weaker and weaker: "It's spring again, the big peach tree at the front door of your house should be open again, right?" ”

"The season in the Northern Desert is later than that of the capital, so it shouldn't have opened yet, and there should be a lot of sheep on the grassland at this time!"

"How about we go back and build your yard? I remember that your brother used to jump from the earthen wall to the peach tree and pick unripe peaches for me to eat, and he would let me eat them once I came, and it was sour, but it was sour, so sour that my teeth fell out! ”

"Poof" Aunt Cao smiled happily, she held the weak housekeeper Qiao in her arms, and the corners of her eyes full of crow's feet showed a bit of girlish beauty. "Then you still eat, what a fool, my brother always told me that you come here every day because you are hungry for my peaches"

"Fart, that kid is underwhelmed"

Steward Qiao was so excited that he was incoherent, but when he said this, his weathered face showed guilt and sadness.

Aunt Cao burst into tears, she felt that Steward Qiao's life was losing rapidly, she had seen dead people, her father, and her naughty brother, all lying in her arms like this and being sent away by her. But she never imagined that there would be one of them lying in her arms like this.

She laughed for no reason, and didn't call him Old Qiao again, but looked up at the starry sky and said, "Second Brother Qiao." Why are you so stupid, it's been more than 20 years, why don't you know how to marry one after more than 20 years, Xing'er has the strength, and she can also bring you children, watching the children call you dad. Apricot is also happy in her heart."

Steward Qiao shook his head weakly, staring at this Cao Xing, who was getting old, this Cao Xing, who was as beautiful as a fairy when he met him back then.

He said: "You know, I only have you in my heart, and I can't pretend to be anyone else. ”

Aunt Cao shook her hand and slapped him in the face, screaming heartbreakingly: "Bastard, you know that I can't marry you, you know that I'm not clean anymore, I can't have children, I can't let your old Qiao family cut off the incense, bastard, you bastard"

Steward Qiao was slapped in the face, but he still looked at him gently and smiled: "So what, everything happened back then, I never blamed you, and I never disliked you"

"But I can't get over this hurdle in my heart"

Speaking of this, Aunt Cao cried loudly, shaking Steward Qiao, who couldn't even open his eyes in his arms, and shouted like crazy: "Old Qiao, don't die, I allow you to die, I marry you, can't you marry you, you stubborn donkey"

Duan Qing, who had never made a sound when he walked, didn't know when he appeared in the courtyard.

In detail, since the night of the day he met Zhao Ruoxin on the bank of the Darong River five days ago, he has been guarding here inch by inch.

He silently checked the pulse of Steward Qiao, who was already dying, and shook his head helplessly: "Accumulated hard work becomes a disease"

After saying that, he disappeared into the night again.

Aunt Cao cried loudly: "I marry you, I marry you, I marry you"

Steward Qiao seemed to be reflecting the light, smiling unusually happily, he reached out to help her wipe away the tears on her face, and said softly: "I finally waited for this day."

After saying that, his hand hung down weakly.

Looking back, I don't know when all the people in Pufu were standing up and down, even the old lady and lady who had never been out of the backyard had already come out.

They all wept silently.

Pu Yi muttered, "Apricot! Why do you have to wait until today to get married, do you know that Qiao Lao Er is notoriously timid, with me Pu Yi for more than 20 years, the only time he has killed Hu people is the ones who broke into your house to do evil, more than 20 people, he didn't tell me, he was alone, he went deep into Hu Di for more than three miles, and hid in the snow for more than a month, he just killed all these 20 people before coming back"

"I know I know" Aunt Cao was crazy, tightly hugging Steward Qiao, who was no longer breathing at all in her arms, she said: "I know, I know everything, it is because I know that I can't marry him, master, my Cao Xing is not worthy of him, I told him, as long as he gets married, Xing'er will give him a concubine, give him children, and take care of him for a lifetime, but this stubborn donkey"

Mrs. Pu next to her also couldn't cry: "He told me that he will only marry you in his life!" ”

Wails arose, and the whole Pufu was gloomy.

The black tiger, who was still stubbornly guarding outside Zhao Ruoxin's room, was screaming at the moment, and his voice was also miserable

However, just when everyone was crying, suddenly, Pu Changqin in the courtyard seemed to think of something, and he ran towards Zhao Ruoxin's room as if he was crazy.

He didn't dare to push her room, but walked to the door and knelt down deeply, begging: "Miss Shao, please save Uncle Qiao, please."

"Squeak"

The door of Zhao Ruoxin's room opened, and the faint light refracted from inside, only to hear her say nonchalantly: "Cry a hair!" People are just tired and sleeping, look at you who have no interest, and bring people in to Young Master Ben" (To be continued.) )
