In front of the lively bun shop, the business is still booming, it seems that the fathers and villagers of Taiyuan City give special face, and they still enthusiastically surround Zhao Xiaoba, a handsome man, and ask long and short questions from time to time.

"Xiaoba, I said that you are not too young, and it is time to marry a wife. Didn't my aunt tell you about my niece a few days ago? People are not boasting about me, but they are beautiful and wise, gentle and virtuous, do you want to see them? ”

The aunt in front of her, who plays the role of a matchmaker, is the daughter-in-law of the blacksmith Li across the street, known as Aunt Tie. Recently, I came to the bun shop to talk to Zhao Xiaoba every once in a while, and his persistence was as difficult as the one who struck iron in his family.

Zhao Xiaoba, a foreigner, always smiled kindly whenever he faced such enthusiastic villagers, carefully picked up the buns that Aunt Tie wanted, and answered patiently.

"Aunt Tie, it's my personal decision to make a lifelong event. Your kindness, Xiao Hachixin got it. ”

But Aunt Tie is such an easy person to dismiss, she is as persevering as iron, and she continues to want to say that she is tempting Zhao Xiaoba.

"Hachi, you can't say that. Although a lifelong event is not a child's play, it must also be a matter of affection, how can you know that there is no drama if you don't look at my niece? You young man looks very clever, but his brain is pedantic, why are you so unenlightened! If you look at the right eye, you might even go out and bring back a happy event. ”

"Aunt Tie, aren't you obviously hurting me? An innocent girl's family, if I really make such a rash move, it is not a bad girl's reputation. I can't help it. ”

With a dry laugh a little embarrassed, Zhao Xiaoba hurriedly handed the picked buns to Aunt Tie and diverted the topic.

"Your bun Aunt Tie, a tael of silver, take it."

"What a bull's temper, it won't be good to look at it! Forget it, my old iron is still hungry at home, and my aunt will talk to you again when I go back. Silver. ”

A little unconvinced, Aunt Tie stuffed the silver into Zhao Xiaoba's hand and let the next one, and Zhao Xiaoba was trying to express his breath, not wanting the aunt to follow to make up for the knife.

"Hachi, don't you listen to the braggadocio of the iron lady? The niece in the show is just an uninformed country girl, and she doesn't look very smart. Listen to my aunt, I'll introduce you to a Peugeot tender one, and I guarantee that you will see it twice! ”

This round of brainwashing said that the matchmaker seemed to be endless, and the helpless Zhao Xiaoba raised his head and bypassed the aunt in front of him, and looked at the situation behind him, and several eager mothers-in-law looked at him, and it was estimated that it had nothing to do with it.

All of a sudden, the embarrassment on his face was even more obvious.

"Auntie, you are so exalted to me. I, Zhao Xiaoba, He De, how can I let you worry about it?"

"Oh, don't you care so much! A young man like you, who is a talented man, wants to accept him as a son-in-law, not to mention anything else, stand up and compare with those five big and three thick men, and he also has a long face. ”

Listening to what the aunt said, Zhao Xiaoba was really sweating all over his body! Look at this cold street, it's winter, yes, but why do you always feel that the peach blossoms are blooming in spring?

And Zhu Xishi, who was on the side, didn't want to meddle in this matter. First, I have always been accustomed to the situation of Taiyuan's fathers and elders chasing Zhao Xiaoba, and I have long seen it; The second is that he and Zhao Xiaoba have a lot of rights and wrongs, and they are not qualified to meddle in this matter, so as not to provoke a jealous charge.

However, although Zhu Xishi watched this from the sidelines, he still couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face. It can be seen that everyone is very interested in this outsider Zhao Xiaoba, maybe their sincerity was perceived by Zhao Xiaoba at the same time, so he was in such a dilemma.

When he was besieged by the three aunts and six mothers-in-law, Zhu Xi couldn't help but glance at him, and his heart suddenly resounded that he had commented on Zhao Xiaoba's words: A person like him is the focus wherever he goes, and no one can ignore it.

Maybe that's the charisma.

I don't know what kind of person can remember in his heart, like the one he remembers? Such a woman, Zhu Xishi had no confidence at all at this time, and he didn't dare to guess what kind of beauty she was, and the difference between the heavens and the abyss was too obvious.

There is joy in the heart, joy and sorrow, and sorrow in the sorrow, which is the state of mind that Zhu Xi hesitated at this moment.

The business of the steamed bun shop gradually came to an end with the empty steamer, and when Zhu Xi, who was preparing to close the stall, he had not yet picked up the steamer, and saw Xiao Yi and his two brothers hurrying from the street from a distance.

I don't know what's going on, like a small needle that coldly stabbed Zhu Xishi's heart, and the steamer in his hand fell back to the board with a "clang".

"Hello Miss Zhu."

When Xiao Yi, who approached, greeted Zhu Xi with a kind face, she suddenly realized that she was too out of shape in front of others, and hurriedly raised her cuffs to wipe her sweaty sideburns, and also hurriedly greeted Xiao Yi.

"Brother Xiao, have you had breakfast?"

"Thank you girl for your concern, I've used it a long time ago. By the way, is Zhao Gongzi here? ”

Before Zhu Xishi could answer, Zhao Xiaoba walked out of the shop and saw Xiao Yi talking to Zhu Xishi at the door, and his face was also a little surprised.

"Xiao Yi, why are you here?"

Bowing to Zhu Xishi, Xiao Yi went straight around Zhu Xishi and stepped forward to answer Zhao Xiaoba's question.

"The first qiē on the road has been taken care of, and I specially came to ask when Childe can leave for the road."

Although Zhu Xishi had been informed of his departure from Taiyuan last night, Xiao Yi brought up the matter quickly and a little unexpectedly, and Zhao Xiaoba also looked a little embarrassed, and his eyes immediately turned to Zhu Xishi, who was facing away from him.

Zhu Xishi, who was standing by the stall, pulled his palms tightly at this time, trying hard to smile, but he found that it was so difficult to squeeze out a smile. In some things, Zhu Xishi thought that she was not clever enough, maybe she was relieved to leave after crying all night, but she still couldn't accept that this qiē came too quickly and too quickly.

What kind of attitude should she use to face Zhao Xiaoba, who is about to leave? The time to think was so short, and then Zhu Xishi couldn't turn around with a more appropriate expression.

And the matter has been unintentionally said in Xiao Yi's mouth, Zhao Xiaoba knows that even if he is embarrassed, no matter how difficult it is to ride a tiger, he must continue. After hesitating a few times, Zhao Xiaoba still took a step forward and walked towards Zhu Xishi, who was facing away from him.

And a step away from Zhu Xishi, Zhao Xiaoba stopped, and seemed to understand Zhu Xishi's mood now, give her the respect she wanted, and don't look at what kind of sad appearance she is.

"Xiao Yi prepared so fast that I didn't know what to say. I won't say anything superfluous, I just hope that you can live happily in the future, have endless money every day, and be a carefree little rich woman. ”

Pursing his lips that were a little astringent, Zhao Xiaoba lowered his head, and suddenly saw the piece of gold on his waist wrapped around Yunyu, and suddenly decided something, and slowly took off the jade pendant from his waist and put it on the board in Zhu Xishi's hand.

"If you have the opportunity to come to Lin'an in the future, you only need to take this jade pendant to Shuanghua Lane on Jinshui Street and ask, and you can find me. At that time, Xiaoba will definitely be hospitable, swim with you, and see the prosperous scenery of Lin'an City, in order to repay Xi Shi for your Taiyuan rescue. ”

Putting down his jade pendant, Zhao Xiaoba consciously took a few steps back, and when he looked at Zhu Xi, who had been with him day and night, life and death together, his eyes also flashed with guilt. But in the end, he was a person who knew how to restrain himself, Zhao Xiaoba swallowed those unfinished words in his stomach, and simply replaced them with two words.

"Take care."

The short and profound words fell, and Zhao Xiaoba turned around and walked towards Xiao Yi without hesitation, and gave a faint admonition.

"Let's go, Xiao Yi."

"Yes."

In the end, he couldn't say a word, Zhu Xishi still stood in front of the stall like that, but his eyes slowly turned to the street, looking at the hurried figures of Zhao Xiaoba and Xiao Yi blending into the crowd, getting farther and farther away from him, farther and farther away

Suddenly, the dry ash board was dyed with tears shaped like plum blossoms, which was so cold.
