Chapter 10 Visitors to the New Home
"But I heard that he came back this time with some helpers, saying that he must marry my sister as a daughter-in-law, so I told my father to do their business as soon as possible, lest that guy keep pestering my sister as before. Qingying said thoughtfully.
Only then did Xiao San hear a little truth, daring to love is that the little girl is afraid that she is single and weak, and when she sees her rival coming to the door, she is afraid that she will not be able to fight.
"San'er, you don't know, that guy is the son of the head of the next village, strong as a cow, once this guy went out hunting and was besieged by a large group of scavenging beasts, the people around him died, he was also seriously injured, and when he was about to be wiped out, my father happened to meet, so he rescued him, this guy took a gift to thank my father after he was injured, and as a result, he fell in love with my sister, not to say that he wanted to be good with my sister, but also said that this was a marriage arranged by God, and his father was their matchmaker, and he was saved in order to let him meet my sister, you said it was funny or not。 After three days, he came to harass my sister, but my sister didn't like this kind of man with muscles in his head the most, but he still didn't give up, and finally his father beat him up and told him to come again and beat him all over the ground to find his teeth, and he never came again. ”
Xiao San turned his head to look at Qing Ling, and Qing Ling nodded slightly.
"I also heard that after this guy was beaten by his father, he was not unconvinced, this is still like a man in the barren forest, but he later begged his father to spend a lot of money to send him outside to learn skills, and when he left, he said that when he came back next time, even if he robbed it, he would rob my sister to be his daughter-in-law, and it would be two years. ”
Aomine didn't speak.
Qingying took a sip of tea and continued: "I also heard that he asked someone to bring a letter to the village today, saying that he would come to the door tomorrow to propose marriage, Dad, I think he must be prepared this time, it is better to take advantage of today's sister's affairs to do, tonight will be in the cave room to spend candles, Dad doesn't have to worry about them, I'm afraid that if I fight with others, what will I do if I hurt my father?"
Qingying said with spit splashing, and Xiao San Qingling was red-faced when she heard it, and she will spend candles in the cave room today? In the mouth of this unobstructed little guy, the flower candles in the cave room dare to love is a play house for children?
Qingfeng's face was solemn, and he said slowly: "Don't worry, I'll go back to the village tomorrow to take a look." ”
"Uncle Qingfeng, I'll go with you tomorrow, so I can take care of it. "Little three.
"No, it's not good for you to go, I'll just go alone, in case there is any conflict, don't be distracted and take care of it, as long as the other party is not a monk, it's fine, you should rest early, I also have to recuperate." After Aomine finished speaking, he went straight back to the house.
After Qingfeng left, Qingling comforted Xiao San, so that he didn't have to worry too much, his father's ability was great, and ten strong men were not his opponents.
This night's conversation was a bit heavy, Xiao San was lying on the bed, unable to sleep for a long time, Uncle Qingfeng's ability he knew better than anyone else, but he didn't have to worry too much.
But what he blames himself the most is that he should come forward the most at this time, but Uncle Qingfeng didn't let himself accompany him, which shows how useless he is, if he didn't have those damn injuries and had more strength, maybe it wouldn't be like this, Xiao San secretly swore that when this incident is over, he must learn more skills from Uncle Qingfeng, people will be old, do you want the old man to protect this family all the time, Xiao San will not allow such a thing to happen, this is the minimum dignity of a man.
Early the next morning, Aomine headed to the village.
In the afternoon, Aomine returned to the wooden house, and without saying a word, he returned to his room, and did not even come out to eat dinner.
Xiao San was very strange and wanted to visit, but was stopped by Qingling.
After another day, Qingfeng still didn't show up, and the food and drink were all sent into the house by the two sisters, but judging from the expressions of the two sisters, it is estimated that something happened.
In the next two days, it was even more strange that Qingling ordered Xiao San to go out hunting alone, and the usually free and lively little chivalrous girl was almost gone except for meal time.
After a few days, the harvest of the little three who went out hunting alone was very small, or even no grains, which was undoubtedly a bit heavy for a family of several hunters, living in this village in the barren forest, most of the meat was from hunting, planting some grain and fruits and raising some poultry, but barely satisfied.
On this day, Xiao San returned empty-handed, before he arrived at home, Qing Ling gave Xiao San an ugly face for the first time, the evening meal was all vegetarian, Qing Ling didn't eat it after two bites, and muttered in her mouth, eat these every day, how can you have the strength to work.
Although the voice is not loud, it is just enough for Xiao San to hear, which is obviously for him.
These words made Xiao San embarrassed, what the hell is going on, is this really Qingling who he knows and loves deeply? What the hell would have happened to make him like this all at once?
Xiao San looked at Qingying for help, this girl actually pretended not to see, just as Xiao San wanted to ask, the little girl dropped the bowl and ran away, and most of the rice was left.
"What the hell is going on?" Xiao San asked secretly as he looked at the gray sky outside the door.
The summer rainstorm is coming, there is no need to hunt in bad weather, the clear stream not far in front of the house has become turbid, looking at the raindrops the size of beans, Xiao San was in a daze, he finally mustered up the courage to walk towards the Qingfeng house, he wanted to figure out what was going on.
Qingling stopped again with a dark face, and told Xiao San to go and fetch some water back.
On weekdays, I drink stream water, but today's heavy rain makes the stream turbid, and I can only go to a natural cave a few miles away to have a clean water source.
Xiao San was about to say that he would wait for the rain to be lighter before going, but Qingling said, "You can't hunt, don't you know how to get water?"
Hearing this sour wording, Xiao San couldn't believe that this was the person who was so stubborn that he could not care about life and death for himself.
Without saying a word, the junior picked up the barrel and ran outside, and then the rain was heavier, as if God was helping to mock this useless young man.
When he arrived at the cave, Xiao San was covered in mud, and the bruised wound on his arm was bleeding, but it just came out and was washed away by the rain.
Xiao San was full of water, only then did he find that this wooden barrel was a little too big, thinking that it was usually Qingfeng who was responsible for these things, Qingfeng was infinitely powerful, this weight was really nothing to him, but for Xiao San, this was undoubtedly too heavy.
In just a few miles, it took Xiao San about two hours to barely bring back half a bucket of water, and when he arrived at the house, he found that the first guest after moving came to the house, Xiao San did not enter the house immediately, because he found that the person who came was not someone else, but the only big matchmaker in several nearby villages who made a living as a matchmaker, I had heard Qingling mention it before, and I had seen it many times.
"What is she doing here?" Xiao San said secretly in his heart, taking advantage of the sound of rain covering, and walked to the door to listen to her.
At this time, the matchmaker was chatting with Qingling hotly.
The matchmaker said: "You agreed, great, I'll go back to my life." ”
Qingling nodded silently, her expression was down, she suddenly saw a wet corner of her clothes exposed outside the door, and immediately changed her expression: "Well, I figured it out, aren't we girls in small villages just trying to have a worry-free life in the future, who doesn't want to marry a strong man, if you marry a man who can't hunt, won't you be starved to death in the future, bother Aunt Zhang to give me a reply, just say that everything is according to the agreement." ”
"No problem, you put ten thousand hearts, I'll go, don't forget to invite me to a wedding wine then." After the matchmaker finished speaking, she held an umbrella and walked out, and when she walked out of the door, she glanced at the junior who was already speechless.
"What you said is true?Who are you going to marry??!!" Xiao San walked into the room and looked at Qing Ling with an indifferent face.
"Anyway, it's not you, I gave you a chance, every time you hunt, it's either some pheasants or some hares, and you can't even shoot a wild boar, what's the use of you, in the winter, our family eats snow or drinks wind?"
"I asked you to fetch buckets of water, and you have been there for more than two hours, and this is still half a bucket! What if there is a dry season, the crops in the field have not yet been watered, and I am afraid that they will have dried up and died. ”
Xiao San was speechless, indeed these were things he couldn't do.
"Speaking of which, you are an idle eater, a girl is better than you, didn't you want to leave before? You leave now, I will never stop you!" After Qingling finished speaking, she took half a bucket of water from Xiao San's hand and walked to the kitchen to make rice.
The little three walked back to the room like a dead corpse, and collapsed straight on the bed, as if he no longer had the strength to support his lead-filled body, regardless of the chill that the clothes still dripping with water on his body had brought him a chill.
At dinner that day, only the two sisters ate silently.
There is no laughter and laughter of the past, and there is no drunken nonsense of someone.
There is less Qingfeng, and there is also less Xiaosan.
The night was surprisingly quiet, so quiet that it made people crazy, Xiao San didn't feel hungry and cold, his heart was violent, and in the dark environment, the scarlet eyes loomed, like a spark swaying in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time, and could cause a fire at any time.
Eventually, in the midst of silent howling and struggle, the flames were extinguished by reason.
This night, Xiao San figured out a lot, he knew that the sudden change of Qingling's family must have encountered something major, something that even Qingfeng couldn't solve, so he refused to see himself, but it seemed that the solution was to ask Qingling to marry the other party.
He probably knew who it was, wasn't it the son of the head of the next village who had been stalking him?
Xiao San wanted to rush out to find that person more than once, but reason told him that this would be worse, he might be beaten half to death by others, and the Qingfeng family would definitely be implicated again.
Qingling didn't like that person, but I heard that that person treated Qingling well, he treated her sincerely, and let Qingling marry him would treat her well, isn't this what I hoped for before?
Could it be that marrying someone who may become a devil at any time is the best choice?
Xiao Sanmin couldn't tell whether he was cowardly or for the sake of the overall situation, but he felt that he was not afraid of death, and he was willing to give his life for any member of their family, as long as they needed it.
Qingling did so many things against her will and deliberately made things difficult, it was nothing more than forcing herself to leave, she may have done such a thing because she was afraid that she would be too sad, maybe it was to protect herself, so that she wouldn't trouble that person, don't send her to death, so even her sister Qingying, who has always been unable to tolerate a little sand, didn't say a word.
Qingfeng has been closed for a while, but from the occasional sister giving him medicine, he knows that Qingfeng must have been injured, and the other party must be threatening their family with something, or even the life and death of their family.
If leaving by himself can save them, Xiao San would rather leave.
Xiao San hated so much, hated that he didn't have the ability to resist at all, but he still didn't feel at ease, he had to ask clearly before he could leave with peace of mind.
