Chapter 45: I Want to Marry Sister Chun
Aunt Hu Liu looked at Sister Hu Chun for a long time, Sister Hu Chun's eyes were full of sincerity, not a polite gesture of returning kindness, she had tears in her eyes, and only then did she nod her head, and asked Sister Hu Chun to help her take off the wooden hairpin on her head and carefully insert this silver hairpin.
Sister Hu Chun exclaimed: "Little Aunt Liu, it's so good-looking." As he spoke, he took the old bronze mirror and showed it to Aunt Hu Liu.
Aunt Hu Liu was holding the blurred old bronze mirror, and the woman in the mirror couldn't be better.
In the second half of the day, when Uncle Hu Liu took Xiao Luocheng, who had fallen asleep, back to the house, he saw his daughter-in-law sitting at the table, facing a bronze mirror, and couldn't stop looking at it.
"What are you looking at your daughter-in-law?" Uncle Hu Liu put Xiao Luocheng on the earthen kang, turned his head to look at Aunt Hu Liu, startled, and anxious, "What's wrong daughter-in-law?
He saw that Aunt Hu Liu's eyes were full of tears, and he felt extremely anxious.
Aunt Hu Liu smiled with tears in her eyes: "What are you anxious about, look at what is unusual about me." ”
Uncle Hu Liu's face was full of suspicion, and after looking at Aunt Hu Liuzi for a long time, his eyes fell on Aunt Hu Liuzi's hair bun, and he was dumbfounded: "That wooden hairpin, why did it turn into silver?"
Aunt Hu Liu cried and laughed with emotion: "This was bought for me by Sister Chun." ”
Uncle Hu Liu was taken aback: "That kid took all the money to buy hairpins? ”
Aunt Hu Liu grabbed her husband, glanced at her, and said angrily: "It's okay for you to listen to me." Liuniang kissed her and found a way to make money, and the child was sensible, so she bought me this hairpin, and also bought pastries and sugar ...... for Sister Li's Luocheng."
Uncle Hu Liu touched his head a little stupidly: "Sister Chun is a good child." ”
Aunt Hu Liu sighed and continued: "It's just too hard." ”
As she spoke, Aunt Hu Liu thought of Sister Chun's mother-in-law, the long-deceased concubine Meng Suniang.
If you want to say that life is hard, her amnesiac is the most bitter. Looking at Su Niang's words and deeds on weekdays, it is definitely not from a small family. It's just that she has lost her memory, and she only remembers that her name is Meng Suniang, and she can't remember anything else, and she can't find out where she came from. When Hu Lezong disappeared, she was just pregnant with Bincheng, and she was sad and injured, and she died within two or three years of giving birth to Bincheng.
The more Aunt Hu Liu thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and she only felt that she would be better to the poor children in the second room in the future, not only for the sensible children, but also for her poor concubines.
......
When Cheng Chunming's mother sold the embroidery work and returned home, she saw that her son had returned from the school hall in the next door village, and was squatting in front of the basin to wash his clothes.
In winter, even if you wash with hot water, your hands may get frostbite. Chunming's mother pulled up her son in pain: "How many times have I told you, put the clothes there, and my mother can wash them." If your hands are frostbitten, why are you writing with a pen?"
Cheng Chunming was stunned for a long time, and let his mother count him down, obviously looking like he didn't know what to say.
Chunming's mother kissed her son who grew up with a handful of and urine, and naturally knew that his son looked like this, and there must be something wrong, and he said a little anxiously: "Chunming, what's wrong with you, are you being bullied in the academy?"
Cheng Chunming stammered for a long time before squeezing out a few words: "Listen, I heard, Sister Chun is going to be a rich and noble family and become a maid." ”
Chunming's mother jumped at the corner of her eyebrows, looked at her son's expression, and said slowly: "It's normal for her to be like that, and she is favored by rich and noble people." ”
Cheng Chunming became anxious.
He had heard from his friends in the village that if he went to a rich and noble family to be a maid, he was very likely to be taken by the master, stay as a housekeeper or something, or point out to other servants as wives at will...... All in all, when I became someone else's maid, I lost all my freedom.
Cheng Chunming's face was flushed when he was anxious, he was anxious for a long time, his mother just looked at him and didn't speak, Cheng Chunming only mustered up the courage and said: "Mother, I, I, I want to marry Sister Hu Chun." ”
Chunming's mother felt a sigh in her heart, and thought, here.
She knew that the appearance of that Nizi would definitely lead her son to miss her!
"No, you can't. Chunming's mother let out a sigh of relief and said slowly, "You want to marry her, but I won't agree." ”
Cheng Chunming almost jumped up: "Mother, why don't you agree!"
"You ask me why I don't agree?!" Chunming's mother repeated, her expression became stern, and her tone was high, "Mother wants to ask you, why does your mother agree to marry such an unkind, unrighteous and unfilial girl? Okay, for you, your mother can break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach, but your mother asks you again, put aside her disrespect for her elders, your mother and mother pull you up, is it to ask you to marry a father, no mother, no help, and there are still two burdens of dragging oil bottles at home?!"
Cheng Chunming thought about the hard work that his mother brought him up, and thought of Sister Hu Chun's thin person, and his heart ached. He was filial, and he didn't want to disobey his mother's wishes, but as soon as he thought that Sister Hu Chun might take a fancy to the fat master of the rich family, or give it to a servant casually, he felt uncomfortable.
Chunming's mother saw Cheng Chunming's face full of pain, and she was afraid that he would be hit and would collapse from then on, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I still took a car with her to the county government today, and I haven't heard of anything about going to a rich family's house to be a girl." You are still young now, and it is too early to say that you will marry. In this way, if you still want to marry her after 5 years, and you have the ability to support your family without the care of your father-in-law's family, then at that time, I will promise you to marry her. ”
Cheng Chunming heard this, it was really like a drowning man grabbing a piece of wood, and he grabbed his mother's arm excitedly: "Mother, don't you get me?"
Chunming's mother screwed him angrily: "When did my mother deceive you?"
Cheng Chunming screamed in pain, but he smiled stupidly on his face. 5 years later, he was 16 and Sister Hu Chun was 14, which was a good age for marriage.
He must work hard, and when he makes a good result, his mother will ask him to marry Sister Chun......
Cheng Chunming worked hard like never before. Naturally, that's another story.
......
Now Sister Hu Chun is busy with her great cause of getting rich.
In the past few days, it was about the county master's warning that took effect, and Hu Jiang's family never came to be a demon again, and even the people in the main courtyard of the Hu family left very rarely from the backyard. Just by chance, Sister Hu Chun could also see her little aunt Hu Jianniang, who was hiding and walking in a hurry, sneaking out of the back door. Sister Hu Chun was powerless to stop it.
No one came to make trouble, and the plan to make Song was put on the agenda.
The Chinese herbs in the ravine of the Goddess Peak, only white wheat dong can be dug in the deep winter season, and the other Chinese herbs are either too small or too few. And the flowers of wild plum blossoms are also collected for Sister Hu Chun, although there are still some, but after drying, it is impossible to make up the number of dried plums, and there is nothing to squeeze.
