When I returned to Xialiang Village, the sky had begun to darken, Xia Chan and Lianxiang moved the things on the ox cart into the kitchen together, Xia Chan saw that Lianxiang was not in high spirits all the way, guessing that it should be Uncle Xu's business, so she asked her to go back to the house to rest. Aunt Lin has been guarding Mu Mu every step in the past few days. The cooking work is all done by Lianxiang. Now she asked Lianxiang to go back to the house to rest. I'm going to have to do my own dinner.

Since Aunt Lin and her family came, all the cooking work has been done by Aunt Lin. She hadn't cooked at home in a long time. I didn't eat anything at noon because I was in a bad mood. Lianxiang shouldn't have eaten well at noon because of Uncle Xu's affairs. Xia Cicada thought that dinner would not be too rich. Boil a porridge and stir-fry a small green vegetable. Just steam another pot of white flour steamed buns.

Wash rice and boil water, light the stove. After waiting for a qiē to be done, Xia Chan sat in front of the stove, remembering what happened in the town today, and she suspected it when she first saw Wen Zhongnan, but there was no evidence at that time. Now that he is pointed out by Xiao Dalang**, to be honest, it is quite unpleasant. Although she doesn't have a deep friendship with Wen Zhongnan, she hasn't met a few times. But in her heart, she still regarded him as a friend. It doesn't seem like a good feeling to be deceived by someone who is a friend.

Daddy's case seems to have reached a dead end now, and there is no new progress. The matter of the secret training camp was last time because of Xiao Dalang's sudden arrival, and I didn't have time to take a look. Recently, both the county seat and Yeyuan Town have been unusually peaceful, as if the various situations in the previous period were just an accident. Xia Cicada looked up and saw that the fire in the stove was weakening, so she took some branches from the side and stuffed them in. I got up and looked at the pot

Dabao will have a holiday tomorrow, and I haven't been to see Xia Xiaohua's family for a while because I'm busy recently. Xia Chan thought about going to the private school tomorrow to pick up Dabao and then go to Xia Xiaohua's house to have a look.

Dinner was a side dish and porridge, and Mu Mu's spirit seemed much better than before. Everyone's hanging hearts also relaxed a little. Aunt Lin rushed to start working after seeing that Mu Mu's love was good, but Xia Chan saw that she couldn't compete with her, so she had to let her go.

When I came out of the kitchen, I saw Lianxiang sitting alone in the yard in a daze. Looking up at the somewhat gloomy sky, he stepped forward.

"Still thinking about the day? Uncle Xu's greatest wish is to hope that you can live a happy life. So for the sake of Uncle Xu, you have to live well. ”

Lianxiang looked up at Xia Cicada, her eyes full of sorrow. "I know, it's because I know it so much that I feel more guilty. Xu Bo was still thinking about me at the last moment of his life. He has suffered too many grievances for me in his life. I'm afraid I won't be able to carry his weight. ”

"Lotus incense. Don't say that. I think Uncle Xu did this at the beginning, and I didn't think about whether you could repay him something. Instead, it's more about hoping you can be well. Your peace and happiness are the most important thing to him. So, it's okay to be happy for Uncle Xu. In the future, I will accompany you to see Uncle Xu every Qingming Festival, okay? Xia Cicada stepped forward and sat down next to Lianxiang.

"Really?" Tears appeared in Lianxiang's eyes. Xia Chan smiled and nodded at her, "Really, you stay with me every day, even if I want to lie to you, you won't rely on it." ”

Lianxiang thought about it, and a faint smile appeared in her eyes. Remembering the events of the day today, the worried look that had just disappeared came to his cheeks again

"Erya. Have you really decided on Brother Xiao's matter? And Wen Gongzi, is there any misunderstanding among you? With what I know about you, if Wen Gongzi simply concealed his identity, would you not be so angry? Lianxiang wondered about the question for an afternoon, and finally couldn't help but ask.

Xia Chan didn't expect Lianxiang to suddenly pull the topic to herself, and was stunned for a moment. He turned his body in a different direction and sat side by side with Lianxiang. Intentionally or unintentionally, he looked up at the dark night sky, and the voice of the exit was tinged with a touch of melancholy, which was particularly clear in the silent night.

"Me and him, we decided the ending a long time ago. Therefore, this topic will not be mentioned in the future. As for Wen Zhongnan. That's a private matter between us. Lianxiang, it's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that sometimes knowing too much may not be a good thing for you. I hope you can live as simple and happy as Uncle Xu expects. As for the rest, let someone else worry about it, okay? ”

"But you're no one else. Erya, don't think that I have been in this house for a short time, just think that I really don't know anything. Since you decided to take me in, I made the decision to share the honor and disgrace with this family. Eat with peace of mind. You're left to worry about everything else. What do you think of me? Also, aren't you tired of doing everything alone? Erya, we don't just depend on you to survive. We are still your dependents. We are willing to be implicated. Lianxiang looked unhappy at first, and the words she said were also very loud, and slowly her feelings gradually faded. The tone has softened a lot. In the end, there was more distress and unbearability in the voice.

Xia Cicada looked up at Lianxiang, half loud. The corners of his mouth raised a chuckle, "Okay, what are the two of us fanning here." Let's talk about your life's events. You see, you're not too small. I used to be involuntarily. Now you're free. If you have a boy you like, remember to tell me. When the time comes, I will definitely marry you off in style. ”

The low air pressure just now suddenly became happy by what Xia Cicada said. Lian Xiang glared at Xia Cicada with a coquettish face

"You are not serious. Always make fun of others. Ignore you. ”

"Where did I find you to make fun. Obviously, I care about whether you are good or not. Hey, tell me the truth, Brother Li next door to us, what do you think? "After a period of observation by the summer cicada. She felt that Lianxiang and Li Dating were a good match. Lianxiang is gentle and lovely, and will be housekeeper and kind to others. Li Da is honest and honest, and knows how to hurt people. The family background is not bad. Although Aunt Li is sometimes a little confused, she is still good overall. If Lianxiang can be given to Li Da, the two families are next to each other. She was relieved. I just don't know what the two of them think.

Xia Chan's eyes stared straight at Lianxiang, not missing a trace of expression on her face. Half loud, I don't know if I was embarrassed or shy to be stared at by Xia Cicada. His face was flushed, and he whispered with a shy face

"Erya, girls must know how to be reserved. You'll be two years younger than me next year, and you'll always be so unashamed to speak. Marriage is a major event, the life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, even if I have no parents now, I can't casually make a private agreement with someone for life, not to mention, this issue is not up to me alone. ”

"What do you mean......." Xia Chan turned around and looked at Lianxiang with a look of surprise, "Do you really like Li Da?" She swore that she had just guessed, but she didn't expect it to be really crooked.

Lian Xiang glared at Xia Cicada shyly, and nodded lightly after half a ring. Seeing this, Xia Chan was so excited that she didn't care what time it was, so she got up and was about to run next door. Seeing this, Lianxiang grabbed Xia Cicada first. said with a smile on his face

"Erya, what time is it? Everyone is sleeping. What are you crazy about? "If you want to ask, you'll have to wait until tomorrow. Lianxiang finally said a silent sentence in her heart.

Xia Cicada came back to her senses after being pulled and looked up at the sky. He patted his head with an embarrassed face

"Oh, you see, I'm so happy that I forget the hour. Well, I'll go over and ask you early tomorrow morning. If Aunt Li knew that you were going to be their daughter-in-law, she would definitely be so happy that she couldn't sleep at night. "Aunt Li has seen Lianxiang a few times, and every time she sees her, she has an expression of whether she can be our daughter-in-law, and Xia Chan laughs at Lianxiang every time she thinks about it. I didn't expect Aunt Li's wish to come true soon.

Xia Chan has always been a man of action, and as soon as it dawned the next day, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went out. Li Da would pass by the door of Xia's house early every morning, and then go to the field to hoe. Xia Chan thought about taking advantage of the lack of people in the morning to ask Li Da what he was thinking.

Xia Cicada got dressed and went out of the house, washed her face casually in the yard, and hurried to the gate. On a June morning, before the sun rises into the sky, the air is still a little cool. Xia Cicada is not dressed thickly, and she feels a little cold when she stands for a while. When Li Da came out of Li's house, he saw Xia Chan standing at the gate and looking anxiously in the direction of their house, rubbing his palms together, looking very cold. Seeing this, Li Da frowned slightly at the corners of his eyebrows and walked a few steps forward quickly. Although Li Er was a little confused when he saw this, because he cared about Xia Chan, he also followed his brother and walked forward quickly

"Erya, what are you doing standing at the gate so early in the morning. I don't know how to wear more clothes. What should I do if I catch a cold? Quick, hurry back and warm up. Li Da walked up to Xia Chan and said worriedly. Li Er, who followed behind, also nodded and agreed, "Yes, Erya, getting up so early in the morning doesn't look like your style." I just watched you look in the direction of our house, are you waiting for us? ”

Li Er has a much more flexible brain than Li Da. Xia Chan was still thinking about how to speak just now, and when he heard Li Er say this, he immediately echoed

"Yes, yes, I'm just waiting for you. Brother Li, let's take a step to speak. Xia Chan turned back and smiled at Li Er, "Li Er, you wait a minute, I have something I want to talk to your eldest brother alone." ”

After hearing this, Li Er nodded at Xia Cicada with a smile. Li Daze looked confused. Xia Chan saw that Li Da was standing in place with a stupid look, and he didn't care too much, so he stepped forward and pulled Li Da to the side

"Erya, don't, don't be like this, if someone else sees it, you will talk nonsense. (To be continued.) )
