Chapter 144: Expectation

Qian Yixiu bent down and patted her head and tail to show her goodwill, and looked up at the background of the little lady.

In the morning light, the little lady stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked into the distance.

Since the first wildflowers bloom in front of the door at the end of February, the little lady has spent more time standing at the door than in winter.

It's mid-to-late March, and the wasteland is full of wildflowers. The gentle spring breeze blows the fragrance of flowers and herbs all over every corner, and also blows people's hearts to move. Not to mention the little lady, even other people occasionally stand there and look at the purple and red scattered in the green grass in front of them.

Now the little lady's schedule is relatively fixed. If it doesn't rain or there are no guests, she will stand at the gate of the courtyard and watch for a quarter of an hour before breakfast, noon and dinner. The rest of the time is spent embroidering, and I don't even stop sleeping.

The little lady became more and more focused on her embroidery business, sitting for an hour or two, and sometimes even embroidering under the lamp, and she couldn't persuade her. She not only embroidered on the embroidery stand, but also on the handkerchief, what stitches embroidered what looked good, and after "studying" it, she embroidered it on the shelf again. Even with this effort, progress is still very slow.

Now the family does not expect her embroidery to be sold for silver, as long as she does not get sick, they will follow her. It's just the same, because of the "research", embroidery thread and plain silk are used more. Moreover, she put forward higher requirements for the embroidery thread, which made the saving Wu family quite helpless and complained.

If Wu doesn't give it, Cheng Yue will look at her with tears in her eyes, Qian Yixiu and Qian Yijin will also help the little lady to intercede, and even Qian Sangui and Qian Manxia have to help beg, Wu has to grit her teeth and ask someone to bring it to her in the provincial capital. He also snorted angrily and said, "Yes, I am disgusted, I offend people, I am not saving so much for this family......"

said that it was said that someone brought her a dozen taels of silver embroidery thread in the provincial capital.

The bluestone slabs in the yard were wet, and there was standing water in some places. The peach trees are full of cherry blossoms, and the land is red. Qian Yixiu bypassed the stagnant water and came to the side of the little lady herself.

She stretched out her little hand to pull Cheng Yue's skirt. Cheng Yue looked down at her daughter, looked up into the distance again, and said faintly, "The flowers have bloomed so many again, it's so beautiful......"

"Brother Jiang" was replaced by "really good-looking". Perhaps, the little lady who has been waiting for so long also has some complaints.

In the morning light, the fog on the wasteland has not yet dissipated, and the grass is greener and the flowers are more colorful. With the gusts of spring breeze, the undulating mist is like a shaking white silk, and the flowers and plants are like embroidered on the white silk, swaying slightly with the shaking of the white silk.

Not far away, there are a few flowers that stand out, with much taller stems and much larger petals. They swayed more gracefully, the dew on the petals rolled around like bright pearls, and there was a bee in the stamens of the flowers.

On the other side of the wasteland, in the morning glow at the entrance of the village, Qian Yixiu also seemed to faintly see a slender back walking alone in Yu Yu, and disappeared in the glow in an instant.

For so many years, is this the indelible picture in the heart of the little lady?

The money is also unknown. She silently stood with the little lady for a while, did not disturb her again, but went to the kitchen to scoop water and wash.

She is willing to enjoy the beauty and expectation of the little lady in her pure world, and she is also willing to take a look at the distance and rest her eyes more.

At breakfast, everyone was delighted that Qian Yixiu was finally able to walk on the ground by herself. Only Wu also knocked her and said, "I am almost seven years old, and I should be like a big girl, learning to embroider and do needlework with Xiaoyu, and I have nothing else to do running around." ”

Qian Yixiu was silent, although she likes good-looking embroidery, but she is really not patient to learn needlework. She also knew that in ancient times, she had to be able to embroider, even those ladies had to learn to do needlework. But she still can't calm down to do this, and when she starts her home, she will sit in the embroidery building and learn slowly.

Seeing her look like her left ear was going in and out of her right ear, Wu poked her little head with his finger in hatred. Seeing that Qian Sangui's face sank a little, he retracted his hand.

After the meal, those who went to school went to school, those who worked, and Qian Yixiu, who had nothing to do, pulled Wu and said, "Milk, Brother Monkey and the white wolf have worked hard to save me this time, can you cut some materials for Brother Monkey and Ben Ben to make a set of clothes?" ”

She wanted to coax the angry monkey brother.

Wu Qi said, "If there are no monkeys, you don't dare to enter the mountains without permission." It's good if you don't teach it a lesson, and what kind of clothes do you make. ”

Qian Yixiu couldn't, so he had to take the jump to the big yard. After passing the side door, I heard Wu shouting from behind, "Don't go up the mountain through the back door, and run around again to see if you don't break your legs." ”

Qian Yixiu's footsteps paused. When she first came to this small courtyard many years ago, Wu was such a gentle person, and so many years of hard life not only tempered her into a capable peasant woman, but also her personality became pungent and hard.

The big yard has completely changed. Far away, you can see the rippling blue waves in the lake, and a small wooden bridge in the middle twists and turns. In two months, the lotus flowers will bloom, and what a beautiful scenery it will be. Thinking about Qian Yixiu, it's so beautiful.

But the dirt road in the yard is really not flattering, the potholes are full of potholes, and it is even more muddy after the rain.

She carried her skirt and walked to the protruding stones, walking and jumping all the way until she reached the lake. Came to the small wooden bridge and walked back and forth a few times. The whole big yard, only the road here is easy to walk.

Look at the rocky mountain behind the courtyard, where a few pearls are hidden. Although it is not the best, as long as it is produced in Dongtian Pond, it is of high quality. Looking back at the small yard where he lives, and the houses in front of him, as well as this muddy yard, the living environment is obviously lower than his economic strength.

I want to wait for my own house to be stronger in the future, and then rebuild the house, plan well, and build a large courtyard with flowers and water embracing each other and exquisite pavilions. The comfort of living by yourself can also hide the beautiful little lady deeply. Now as soon as the guests come to the house, the little lady hides in the East Wing hut, which is really wronged her.

It's just that I can't repair it now, because of my eagerness, my family has already aroused a lot of suspicion and discussion, and it's not good to be high-profile anymore.

There is also how to tell the grandfather about the pearl, how to sell the pearl at a good price, how to buy land and buy the golden lotus root, and what happened to the shopkeeper Cui......

At this time, Qian Yiduo came. Since Qian Yixiu was injured and locked in the hut, this little Lori will often come to play with her.

Little Lori said loudly when she was far away, "Uncle Wan is coming to your house again, the two of us came together, and he also brought two fat rabbits." ”

Even if you are far away, you can hear the sound of little Lori's saliva. Duoduo Xiaopan friends often eat meat now, and they still can't change the problem of drooling at the sight of big meat.

Since Wan Dazhong ate that meal at her house, he would come to the house every once in a while to deliver some hunting catches, under the pretext of "asking Uncle Qian for martial arts".

Although Qian Yixiu was embarrassed to pick up people, he still didn't want to see him for a million points. feels that Wan Dazhong is not worthy of his little aunt even if he is not a bad person. First of all, the identity of a hunter is not good, it is a high-risk profession, and it is easy to kill and disable.

For example, his grandfather Qian Sangui, if he didn't be a dart master at the beginning, did a small business or learned a craft, even if he was only a farmer, the family would not have been so miserable.

He was also a dart master in his workplace, and after his work-related injury, the unit also helped to treat the illness and gave him a compensation of 100 taels of silver. The family was defeated to only two acres of slope land, and if he didn't cross it, he might not be poor.

And the hunter is self-employed, whether he is disabled or dead, he pays for it, and even the third noble grandfather is not as good. If there is an accident in Wan Dazhong, what should the little aunt do?

Qian Yixiu looked up at the sky, it seems that it is only time now, where is there anyone who comes to someone's house so early to be a guest, there is really no eyesight.

She led the little Lori back to the small yard, and there were really two dead rabbits under the eaves. There was the sound of Qian Sangui and Wan Dazhong talking and laughing in the hall.

Qian Sangui stayed alone in the room with nothing to do and was lonely, there was someone to talk to him, and he was still a person who had a common language and admired him, he was happy and talked more.

He also told Wu in a loud voice that they would braise a rabbit at noon, and they would drink two cups. Wu happily asked Qian Xiaofeng to come over and take care of the rabbit.

Qian Yixiu came to her aunt's hut, where she and Qian Xiaoyu were doing needlework. The little aunt's face was red, and she seemed to look a little like a little woman in love.

Qian Yixiu walked around the room, and said to himself as if unintentionally, "I heard adults say that they want to marry women from high doors and marry women from low doors." Our family is now a small landlord, and maybe he will be a big landlord in the future, so don't marry those who want to climb the high branches. Especially those men who are easily injured, let alone marry. To be clear, guilt and joy are two different things......"

Qian Xiaoyu was used to Qian Yixiu's amazing words from time to time, but these words still made her laugh out loud. Qian Manxia's face turned red with anger, she got up and grabbed her and slapped her little ass a few more times, and said angrily, "What nonsense, see if I don't tell my mother, let her pinch you hard." ”

Qian Yixiu walked out of the hut depressed, feeling like a nosy Fahai. But she really can't bear to let her little aunt suffer a little more, she hopes that her little aunt can live a comfortable and comfortable life after getting married, not necessarily rich and rich, but must be comfortable, and there will be no big twists and turns.

This is also what she hopes for her future.

She also hopes that the relationship between her husband and Xianggong in this life will not be too strong, let alone too fond of a certain man. That kind of long and obsessive wait is very difficult. It's like yourself in the previous life, like a little lady in this life......

Qian Yiduo didn't understand much about what he said just now, and asked, "Sister Xiu'er, who is going to marry a big landlord?" ”

"It's Duoduo, now Duoduo is also the daughter of the shopkeeper's family, and she will marry a big landlord in the future." Qian Yixiu flickered with little Lori.

Qian Yixiu shook twice at the door of the hall, and Wan Dazhong greeted inside, "Xiu'er, come in and see what Uncle Wan has brought you." ”

Qian Yixiu walked into the house. Seeing that Wan Dazhong's black face was smooth except for the long mark, the other places were smooth, the facial features were hard and a little handsome, the figure was straight, and the sitting posture was like a pine. Although he is much worse than his handsome little father, he is still a handsome guy, no wonder the girls in several villages are staring at him.

"What's the matter?" She asked.

Wan Dazhong took out a few stones from his purse and handed them to her, and said with a smile, "This is what I saw in front of a waterfall when I was hunting." If you think it looks good, I'll pick up a few and bring it back for you to play with. ”

It turned out that she was bribed.

This is six rain flower stones, the color is gorgeous, crystal clear, the graphics in the stone are different, some faintly like birds and beasts, some like green mountains and green waters, and some like the silhouette of a girl...... Qian Yixiu liked this gift very much, and was reluctant to refuse.

She was looking at it in a daze, and Qian Yiduo's little mouth was deflated, "Uncle Wan, isn't there much of it?" ”

Wan Dazhong smiled and hurriedly picked the smallest one from Qian Yixiu's chubby paws and gave it to her, "This one is Duoduo." ”

Qian Yixiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Wan." ”

At noon, Qian Sangui and Wan Dazhong ate on the small table on the Luohan bed, and Wu led Qian Manxia and Qian Yixiu and Qian Yiduo to eat on the big table.

Qian Yixiu stood up and listened to Qian Sangui and Wan Dazhong. Wan Dazhong didn't say much, so he listened to Qian Sangui more. interjected two sentences from time to time, which was very pleasant, and there was no trace of Qian Sangui's sycophant, which made Qian Sangui's haha louder than usual. Wu asked Wan Dazhong to eat and drink well from time to time across the table.

The little aunt blushed and bowed her head to eat, without saying a word, but her crooked eyes showed joy in her heart.

After the meal, Wan Dazhong left, and by the way, he took Duoduo Little Lori home with him.

At the next morning, Qian Yixiu frowned and secretly told Qian Sangui about his worries about Wan Dazhong's career.

Qian Sangui laughed when he heard this, pinched her little chubby face and said, "Our embroidery is really a worrying fate." Na Wan Dazhong is a good person, bold, polite, and has some real skills in hunting. He is a guest at home, and we welcome him. If he asks to marry your aunt, he has his own plans. It's not your little doll's concern, don't talk about it, your milk will hear it and be beaten again. ”

Before dinner, Brother Monkey and Dashan Benben returned. Brother Monkey still ignored Qian Yixiu and didn't even look at her. Qian Yixiu went into the kitchen and personally steamed a bowl of minced meat and egg custard for it, and ordered a few drops of sesame oil. Although it ate deliciously, it still pointed the back of its head at her, expressing its strong dissatisfaction.

Qian Yixiu pinched the back of its neck, and it asked her to pinch it with a wooden face, and walked away with a wooden face after pinching.

The next day, a long-lost little guest came to the house, the little monk Hongji, who had only returned from the capital a few days ago.

The little monk hadn't seen Brother Monkey twice last year, and this time he was very happy to see Brother Monkey at home. He picked it up and said, "Ah, you've grown up, you've grown up, and you're doing a great job here." ”

Brother Monkey hugged him with tears in his eyes, and his mouth was full of Yiyi, as if he was accusing Qian Yixiu of abusing him.

Qian Yixiu was angry and funny, so he talked about the cause and effect of the incident, which also made the little monk happy. He said, "Amitabha, you monkey is too persistent. The little benefactor has already reasoned with you, and you are still so unrelenting. Why don't you follow the poor monk to the temple? (To be continued.) )
