In the afternoon, a thin snow suddenly drifted, and the cold wind outside whined.

After Shen Niannian embroidered more than a dozen purses, the sky had already darkened, and it was almost time to cook, so she rubbed her hands, exhaled a breath of heat, and walked out of the door.

I went to the hall first, and after finding that there was no one, I went to the main house of the Shen family again.

Sure enough, there was no one.

"I really can't see that Shen Xiuniang really went out, but she is still quite anxious for her son."

With a chuckle, Shen Niannian went directly to the kitchen, lit the fire and prepared to start cooking today's dinner.

All the ingredients prepared by Li Zheng and them were for Du Shengnian to eat, and if the meal time was staggered, then what the mother and daughter ate would only be the leftover meal from the last time they invited the villagers to dinner.

At night, it is an ordinary coarse noodle porridge, which can be left for a long time after being fried with a little meat oil with coarse grains, and can be brewed with boiling water when you are hungry on weekdays, and you can eat it quickly.

"Tonight, you're going to eat this?"

The light of the fire under the stove dispelled the coldness and darkness of this cold winter, Shen Niannian was holding the bowl and was about to eat, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ears.

She looked up at the kitchen door, only to see Li Jiaheng standing by the door, looking at her puzzled, "Why are you eating alone in the kitchen?" ”

Shen Niannian pursed her lips, put down the bowl, and said with a light smile: "Alone, it's convenient to eat warm here, why doesn't Brother Heng have to accompany Du Gongzi?" ”

"Anyway, Du Gongzi is also an adult man, and he is a general, so he won't be afraid of the dark like a woman, right?" Li Jiaheng looked indifferent, walked into the house, and took some things, "Eldest sister of the Shen family, what do you think about the affairs of the Liu family?" ”

"The affairs of the Liu family naturally have nothing to do with me, why are you asking me this?" Shen Niannian looked at him puzzled.

Li Jiaheng frowned slightly: "After coming back this time, I always found that you seem to be a different person than before, could it be that you have broken away from the Liu family, and it has such a great impact on you?" ”

"It's not a matter of influence, Brother Heng, you're still young, and you don't understand many things." Shen Niannian smiled faintly and began to eat by himself.

Li Jiaheng seemed to be very dissatisfied with her words, but it was not good for this lonely man and widow to be in the same room all the time, so he took his things and prepared to leave.

"By the way, Brother Heng, when will your father come back?" Shen Niannian suddenly asked.

Since it was determined that the eldest cousin was recuperating at her house, Uncle Li Zheng went to the county to help him bring the letter, calculate the time, and probably come back at about the same time.

"I don't know about this, why does the eldest sister of the Shen family want to know this?" Li Jiaheng was stunned for a moment and asked puzzled.

"Nothing, just curiosity." Shen Niannian smiled, lowered her head and continued to eat, but if she looked closely, she could find that she was actually a little absent-minded.

Li Jiaheng didn't care, and quickly walked out.

It's been two days since Rizheng left, and counting it, he should be on his way back by this time.

If he brought back his eldest cousin's people, she would not have a chance to ask her father about their whereabouts.

I'll have to figure out a way to talk to my eldest cousin again.

She didn't know when Shen Xiuniang would come back, but on the afternoon of the second day, she heard that people from Caojia Village had come to Liu's door, and many people in the village went to see the excitement.

"Mother, look at you so happy, what did you do yesterday?"

Shen Xiuniang was sewing the soles of her shoes at this time, and she couldn't stop smiling on her face: "I didn't do anything, Nian Nian, I heard from the people of Caojia Village that the town has recently been under martial law, and last time I found traces of those Hu barbarians, and after the matter of the Liu family, we will close the door and live our own lives. ”

Kiss?!

Shen Niannian's eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at Shen Xiuniang in shock: "Mother, why did you remember to suddenly tell me about a family matter?" You weren't ...... before"

"That was before! Didn't my mother be reluctant to let you leave my mother's side before? Plus your face ......" Shen Xiuniang looked at her lovingly, but her somewhat distressed gaze made Shen Niannian not feel the slightest warmth.

"Mother, why are you so sudden, wasn't my face the same before? You said at the time......" She looked at her in bewilderment and muttered softly.

The smile on Shen Xiuniang's face froze, but it was fleeting in the blink of an eye, I saw her sigh lightly, put down the things in her hand, gently grabbed her hand, and patted her helplessly twice, "Mother is also reluctant to marry you, but when my mother came back last night, I thought about it for a while, what Aunt Zhang said is not unreasonable, you are so old, even if your mother is reluctant, you will marry after all......"

Seeing that Shen Niannian was stunned and didn't speak, Shen Xiuniang thought that she was frightened by her words, pursed her lips and smiled helplessly: "But you can rest assured, Niannian, my mother will never allow you to suffer any grievances, and when the time comes, my mother will inquire about your other villages and find a son-in-law who will come to the door, so that you will become a relative in the future, and he will not dare to bully you." ”

The people on this border are simple and arrogant, but unlike those prosperous towns in Kyoto, the women who recruit their sons-in-law here are also the masters of the house in the future, and basically have the same rights as men.

Although the son-in-law is divorced, there will definitely not be a woman who is divorced, but it will be ridiculed, so the man who is willing to be the son-in-law is either a poor family who can't open the pot, or someone who is about to starve to death.

This Shen Xiuniang said that it was for her good looks, but if it was a really capable man, who would be willing to be a son-in-law and make people laugh?

Although Shen Niannian had a hesitant look on his face, he was really suspicious of Shen Xiuniang.

I had quarreled with those long-tongued women for her family affairs before, why didn't she see her for one night, but she changed her mind?

Although this Shen Xiuniang is just a country woman, even she can't understand what she has in mind.

"Mother, let's talk about this matter later, we just moved to a new house, and there is no news about Qi Ge'er's side yet, anyway, my daughters have been left at such an age, and it's not too late to wait a year or two to talk about this?" Shen Niannian was like an ordinary woman who had not left the pavilion and was shy when she mentioned her family affairs, and did not let Shen Xiuniang see anything unusual.

Shen Xiuniang smiled and nodded, then picked up the needle and thread again, and continued to seal the insole.

Shen Niannian stood up, "Mother, then I'll go to the kitchen first and boil medicine for Du Gongzi, and I'll come over and talk to you later." ”

Shen Xiuniang nodded and answered twice.

Seeing this, Shen Niannian turned around, restrained the smile on his face, and looked at the guest room where his eldest cousin lived.

What kind of method should be used to get words out of the mouth of the eldest cousin?

Headache, what a headache!

Sighing softly, she sighed helplessly.

As soon as he went out, he saw Li Jiaheng walking out of the guest room with pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Shen Niannian stared at the rice paper in his hand, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.
