When the Ling'er brothers and sisters returned to Wangjia Village, the father and mother naturally couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hugged the ten sisters tightly for a long time and were reluctant to let go. [Ran^Text^Library] []

Indeed, I haven't seen it for a few days, as if a few years have passed, the old lady proposed to set up another banquet, and invited the surrounding fathers and villagers to come to the lively and lively, one to the ten sisters to rush to be happy, and the other to celebrate the joy of the two mothers.

Several people glanced at each other, and Ling'er said: "It's not proper, mother, Shuangniang's sister-in-law is happy for less than three months, the doctor said that you need to be careful to recuperate within three months, it's too noisy, I'm afraid it's not good;

Moreover, when we came back this morning, we met a large number of officers and soldiers rushing to the Cangzhou camp, and it is said that the war in the north is tight, and the Cangzhou camp will also be transferred to the border to participate in the war. ”

Father and mother looked surprised when they heard this, "There is another war?" ”

"Alas, when will this war end? Old man, let's be out for 30 years, and I don't know what's going on in my hometown? ”

The old man was also stunned, the room was silent, and after a while, the old lady suddenly said: "Old man, we can't live for a few days when we are old, and we all say that the fallen leaves return to the roots, or let's go back to our hometown to see?" ”

Ling'er and several people were shocked, "Don't do it, father, mother, thousands of miles away, Daddy has just recovered from a serious illness, how can he withstand such a bump?" ”

The old lady paused, "Alas, really, look at my mouth, I talk nonsense all day long, I should be beaten." Old man, don't go to your heart, let's recuperate, and talk about it when our bodies are well, ah! ”

Although my father didn't say anything, since that day, he has always had a sad face, and he looks in the direction of his hometown in the north in a daze. Ling'er was also distressed when she saw it, but she didn't know what to say.

Two months have passed in a blink of an eye, today is the day of Ningshu's holiday, the old lady arranged it last night, ready to have a reunion dinner at noon today, Daqiang went to the town to buy things in the morning, and Ling'er commanded and arranged for the maids to clean the yard.

Half morning. Daqiang came back with Ning Shu, and Ning Shu asked before he entered the courtyard: "Sister Ling'er?" Where is Sister Ling'er? ”

Ning Shu hurriedly searched for most of the yard, and finally found Ling'er in the garden, "Oops." Sister Ling'er, why did you come here? Make it easy for me to find. ”

Ling'er put down the book and said with a smile: "What's the matter, I haven't seen you for a month, so I miss my sister?" ”

Ning Shu's face turned red. His face was bulging: "Sister Ling'er, I've grown up, don't talk about me like that." ”

Ling'er smiled brightly, Ning Shu looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he came up mysteriously: "Sister Ling'er, I'll show you something." ”

Ning Shu carefully took out a piece of paper from his arms, Ling'er looked at him and said with a smile: "What are you doing here?" It's not a little girl who you fell in love with. ”

Ning Shu had a big red face again, and his half-angry appearance was very cute: "Sister Ling'er." Don't laugh too early, look, who's in this picture? ”

Ling'er looked at him suspiciously, took the paper and opened it. I saw that the woman in the painting was wearing a gorgeous pleated skirt, her body was slightly sideways, her fragrant shoulders were half exposed, her eyebrows were affectionate, and she looked like a woman in a green building.

Damn, it must have been the little devil's doing. Ling'er gritted her teeth with hatred, and her heart was very irritable, she pinched the painting and walked around in front of Ning Shu, Ning Shu stood obediently and did not speak.

Half an hour later. Ling'er stopped, "Ning Shu, where did this portrait come from?" ”

Ning Shu carefully observed her expression, and whispered, "I bought it at the roadside stall at the entrance of the academy." ”

"What!" Ling'er was shocked and angry, and crumpled the paper into a ball and wanted to throw it out, but Ning Shu hurriedly grabbed it: "Sister Ling'er." Don't throw it, don't throw it, it's troublesome for outsiders to pick it up! ”

Ling'er stopped, holding the paper ball and stood for a while, she quickly calculated in her mind, this painting must have been drawn by the little devil, but why did he take it to a roadside stall to sell?

Humiliate me? There are not many people who know me in the city, even if they know me, they can't be sure of me, there are so many similar people in the world, and the kind of place in Qinglou is not something that ordinary people can go to, as long as I am determined, who dares to name and say that it is me?

Ten thousand steps back, even if they really think it's me, it doesn't matter, anyway, in their eyes, my reputation is long gone. The only thing that is hard to say is my father and mother, who are already heartbroken for my so-called girlfriend reputation, if they see such a portrait circulating in the community, it is strange that they are not so angry that they vomit blood.

There is another point, don't let the little demon king find me because of this portrait, otherwise none of the ten sisters of Da Qiang Ningshu Qi Liu will be able to escape, and our family will be doomed.

But what can be done to stop this from happening? Ling'er became irritable again, pacing up and down the garden.

"Ling'er, Ning Shu, what are you doing?" The old lady came through the arch.

Ling'er hurriedly stuffed the paper ball into her sleeve and said in a low voice: "Ning Shu, don't tell others." ”

"Brother Da Qiang can't say it?"

"Don't talk about it for the time being, I'll think of a way first, my father and mother can't leak any wind there, you know?"

"Don't worry, I know."

This family banquet was unusually rich and lively, but Ling'er had been absent-minded, and Ning Shu naturally knew the reason, so he deliberately kept telling everyone interesting things in the city, so as not to let everyone see Ling'er's strangeness. Even so, the delicate Shuangniang who was sitting next to Ling'er saw the problem at a glance, and she spoke to everyone quietly and with a smile.

Ling'er didn't eat much and excused herself to go out to leave the table, and when she stood up, a paper ball fell from her sleeve but she didn't know it, Shuangniang saw it and picked it up and stuffed it into her sleeve.

When the family banquet was over, Shuangniang pulled Daqiang back into the room and closed the door, Daqiang was quite strange: "Shuangniang, what are you doing when the door is closed in broad daylight?" You're pregnant now, and you can't just toss around. ”

Shuangniang's eyes suddenly turned red, and she said half-angrily: "What are you thinking?" ”

Daqiang smiled, Shuangniang blushed even more, she turned her back, took out the paper ball in her sleeve, opened it and looked at it, and was suddenly frightened to take two steps back, Daqiang hurriedly supported her: "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"This ...... This ......" Shuangniang handed over the portrait tremblingly, Daqiang only glanced at it, and then grabbed it angrily and was about to tear it up: "What kind of mess is this, Shuangniang, where did you get this kind of thing?" ”

"Don't tear it, Brother Daqiang, this is falling out of Sister Ling'er's sleeve."

"What? This...... This ......" Da Qiang was so angry that he slapped the portrait on the table and sat next to Shuangniang angrily.

The two were silent for a long time, and Shuangniang looked at Da Qiang: "Brother Da Qiang, this ...... The woman in this portrait seems to resemble a ......"

"Like what? Not at all! ”

Daqiang because he was angry. The tone was very bad, they had been married for a few months, and Shuangniang had never seen him lose his temper like this, she pursed her lips: "Brother Da Qiang." What's the use of you being angry? Since this portrait fell from Ling'er's body, Ling'er must have seen it, and I saw that she was not keeping her mind when she was eating, and most of them were worried about this portrait.

She can't tell her father and mother about this kind of thing, and she's embarrassed to tell us. A little girl who has not been out of the cabinet, she has suffered this kind of humiliation but can't say it, alas, if we don't help her as brothers and sisters-in-law, who else will help her? ”

Daqiang calmed down, thought for a moment, and stood up with a hula: "I'll go see Ling'er!" ”

He took a few steps, then came back and took the portrait and instructed: "Shuangniang, no one is allowed to say anything about this, you know?" ”

"Got it, go ahead!"

Daqiang hurriedly came to the gate of Ling'er's campus but stopped. He walked up and down in front of the small courtyard with his hands clasped hands, and he didn't enter the courtyard for half an hour.

"Brother Daqiang, what are you doing?"

Daqiang turned around and saw Ning Shu coming, as if he saw a savior, he pulled Ning Shu and walked quickly to the small pavilion next to him. Da Qiang looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered: "Ning Shu, let me ask you, do you know about Ling'er's portrait?" ”

Ning Shu's mouth opened wide in surprise. I thought to myself, Brother Daqiang will know so soon, Sister Ling'er obviously asked me not to say it, but she said it herself. I really don't know what she's thinking?

Da Qiang looked at Ning Shu's expression, and naturally thought that he didn't know, he carefully took out a crumpled piece of paper from his chest, and Ning Shu recognized it at a glance that it was the one he gave to Sister Ling'er.

Daqiang wanted to unfold it to show him, but he hesitated again, and said with a cautious face: "Ning Shu." Only a few people know about this, so don't take it out and talk nonsense. ”

Ning Shu twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Brother Da Qiang, the person on this portrait looks like Sister Ling'er, right?" ”

"It's not, it's just too similar, hey, you haven't seen it yet, how do you know?"

"I bought this painting from a roadside stall in front of the academy."

"What?!" Daqiang jumped to his feet in shock, "You say it again." ”

Ning Shu repeated it word by word, Da Qiang was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he grabbed Ning Shu: "What did Ling'er say?" ”

Ning Shu shook his head: "She just said not to let outsiders know, she went to find a way." ”

"This girl, she is a little girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, what can she do when she encounters this kind of thing? You kid too, I'm going to pick you up in town, why don't you discuss with me first. ”

Ning Shu scratched his head: "This ...... Isn't our family Sister Ling'er the most thoughtful? ”

"Stinky boy, no matter how much you have an idea, it's a girl's family, if we don't take care of this family, do we have to rely on Ling'er for the rest of our lives?" Daqiang knocked Ning Shu hard, Ning Shu was in pain but didn't forget to mutter.

"Stinky boy, what are you muttering? Let's go, let's go see Ling'er together. ”

The two entered the Ling'er courtyard and saw that the tenth sister was also there, so it was naturally difficult to mention the portrait, the tenth sister did not leave, and they did not leave, sitting on the side and smiling and watching the two embroider.

Looking at the expressions of the two people, Ling'er immediately understood, she found a reason to send away the tenth sister, and then said to them: "What's the matter, say it!" ”

Da Qiang and Ning Shu glanced at each other, and Da Qiang took out the crumpled portrait from his arms: "Ling'er, this ...... What are you going to do? ”

When she first saw the portrait, Ling'er was really confused, shocked, angry and afraid, but after two hours of silence, she slowly came to her senses. It's just a portrait, what's the big deal, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, there will always be a way.

She said lightly: "What can I do, anyway...... The person in the painting is not me. ”

Daqiang hurriedly said: "But this appearance and this clothes are all yours!" ”

Ning Shu secretly kicked Da Qiang, but Da Qiang was still dead-headed: "What to do, Ling'er, Ning Shu said that portraits are sold everywhere in the city, and there are many people who see them, and there will always be people who will recognize them, and they will ...... when the time comes."

"What if I recognize it, if I don't admit it, can she find someone to confront me?"

Ning Shu nodded: "Yes, yes, after all, only a few of us know about Sister Ling'er's going to the Qinglou, not to mention that it is for the tenth sister, that set of fancy clothes has already been burned, as long as Sister Ling'er doesn't recognize it, it's useless for anyone to say." ”

Daqiang thought for a moment and felt that it could only be like this, but ...... Always feel like you're missing something?

Ling'er fiddled with the thread on the table, and said slowly: "Brother Daqiang, Ning Shu, from today on, you will call me sick to the outside world, and I will ask you for the fields and businesses at home, as well as on the vast mountain." ”

Daqiang exclaimed: "Where is Ling'er uncomfortable?" ”

Ning Shu said: "Brother Da Qiang, why are you so brainless!" Sister Ling'er wants to avoid the limelight, and when everyone gets tired of passing on this portrait, they gradually forget about this thing, won't it be okay in the future? ”

Daqiang thought about it, nodded and said: "It makes sense, it's okay, Ling'er, you have a good rest, the eldest brother promises, you will definitely do everything properly." ”

After several people agreed, Ling'er pretended to be infected with the wind and cold and was bedridden all the time, although her father and mother were distressed, seeing that she was not serious, she did not worry.

Sure enough, in less than a month, the enchanting Ling'er portrait appeared in the bazaars of various towns, and the Shankou Town, where Ling'er's house is located, is no exception.

When the villagers saw the Lin family, they either insinuated or came over to inquire with concern, but the Lin family scoffed at the portrait as if they were nothing, and said There are so many similar people in this world, why do you think it is Ling'er? Could it be that you are uneasy and kind?

Naturally, the villagers didn't dare to say anything in front of the Lin family, they just discussed it in private, and they were very curious about Ling'er's reaction, and by the way, how much difference was there between the real person of the Yang family Ling'er and this portrait? Helplessly, Yang Ling'er was sick in bed a month ago, and she never made a good move, so she never went out, unable to satisfy everyone's curiosity.

This matter has been rumored in the village for two or three months, but unfortunately I have not been able to see the main master, and there is another more unprecedented and more interesting thing, that is, the matter of another big family in Wangjia Village.

It is said that Wang Fugui's mother, Feng, wanted to book a young lady in the city for Wang Fugui, but Wang Fugui desperately did not agree, but wanted to marry his cousin Wang Wan'er of the same clan. Originally, two people from the same village, the same surname, the same clan and the same generation could not get married, plus Wang Wan'er, her own mother or Wang Fugui's father's aunt, the two are real brothers and sisters, how can there be brothers and sisters who get married? Isn't that kuai?

Not only did Feng disagree with this matter, but Wang Fugui and his father Wang Jiaqi also disagreed, Wang Wan'er was heartbroken and wanted to go to the well, Wang Fugui held on to his hand and shouted to his father: "Wan'er is already pregnant with my child, it is best for you to agree, if you don't agree, we will leave this house and never come back." Feng Shi fainted on the spot when he heard this.

The hatred in Feng's heart, her husband was taken away by the fox spirit, and he didn't look at himself all day long, and now, his son has also lost it, Feng threatened in a fit of anger: "Wang Jiaqi, if you don't drive those two fox spirits out of the house, I will reconcile with you, and I will return a lot of my dowry to me, and I will not let go of any of your surname Wang." ”

Then Feng really took all his belongings and went back to his parents' house. (To be continued.) )
