Chapter 173: Building a Snowman

Seeing that what he said was conclusive and every word was reasonable, Gu Shifu looked at the people around him, and everyone stopped talking.

Seeing this, Gu Shitong knew that he was serious, so he lowered his head and sighed: "I have been gone for five years, and the most indebted thing in my heart is this girl Qingzhu, she was only ten years old, she had to support a family, Qingsong and Qingying are so young, it is not easy to grow so good now, besides, it is not easy for Qingsong to study, she is not the eldest sister, of course, you are indispensable to take care of." ”

Gu Shifu glanced at him: "They are all brothers in the family, and they can't write two Gu characters in one stroke, we should take care of their sisters and brothers, but, as soon as you come back, you can't help but say that you want to marry her, and no one can bear it!" ”

Gu Shitong shook his head lonely: "In a blink of an eye, after the New Year, she will be sixteen years old, when she reaches the age of marriage, there is a good one in front of her eyes, looking at it is a successful marriage, I can't be selfish for myself, I have to keep her as an old girl, and when I go underground one day, I see her mother, and tell me how to explain!" ”

Speaking of the Wang family, everyone was silent, and Qingsong carried Qingying into the back room.

After a while, the fire in the charcoal basin was extinguished, and the tea in the bowl turned cold, Gu Shifu said sullenly: "You better think about it again, tell Qingzhu well, she has a strong temperament, and it is not good to be sloppy and sloppy in her life." ”

"The date is set on the eighth day of the first month, and there should be a matchmaker in a few days, and then, you can ask carefully, anyway, I think it's good." Gu Shitong drooped his head, a little embarrassed.

"You ......" Gu Shifu didn't come anywhere, and persuaded himself for a long time, this person has already set the day, what else is there to say!

Zheng Jialu pushed Gu Shifu and said: "It's not too early, it's okay to talk about dawn today, he has traveled dozens of miles, let him rest first, and then think about it in the long run." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm confused at this time, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Others chimed in.

Gu Shifu patted him on the shoulder helplessly and said, "You rest, Ming'er will come to my house for dinner." ”

Everyone walked away, the snow outside stopped, the white sparkled brighter than the moonlight, and the footprints that had been stepped on before were covered again.

Gu Shitong sent the guests away, turned around and walked into Gu Qingzhu's sisters' room, and saw Gu Qingzhu and Yi lying sideways in the bed, so he sat down next to the bed, and said with a smile: "Girl, are you really angry with your father?" It's the first day I'm back. ”

Gu Qingzhu closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, not making a sound.

Gu Shitong said: "I know that I will let you marry as soon as I come back, it is really sudden, you are not prepared, I can understand, but there are still some days before the eighth day of the first lunar month, and it is not too late for us to start now." ”

"What? The eighth day of the first lunar month! Gu Qingzhu turned over and sat up, lifted the quilt, and shouted with round apricot eyes.

"Can't do it? …… Yes? Gu Shitong was startled by her aggressive momentum and stood up abruptly.

"There is still a month to go, and the mountains will be closed by heavy snow at this time, what to prepare, how to prepare!" Gu Qingzhu said angrily.

Gu Shitong was yelled at by his eldest daughter, blinked his eyes, and said: "He is a big family, and it is not uncommon for us to have nothing." ”

"You ......" Gu Qingzhu stared at the person in front of him, wishing that she couldn't see a hole in him, but in his innocent eyes, she finally lost the battle, that's right, this is her father, the father she has been looking forward to for five years!

Gu Qingzhu was very annoyed that she had taken his words, and she was actually wrapped around for a while, so angry that she lay on her back, rolled up the quilt and went to the bed, and snorted: "I won't marry!" ”

"I know General Mu, and I've seen Master Mu again, he looks very good, and he is worthy of my family's green bamboo."

"In the new year, you will be sixteen, the law of our Dali country, seventeen do not marry and increase taxes, we have been good people for generations, and we will not do anything beyond the norm, don't you say?"

"Your mother was pregnant with you at the age of sixteen, and now, by chance, you and Young Master Mu are a pair made in heaven, you believe in your father, your father has traveled a lot over the years, and he has seen many people, and his vision will not be wrong!"

……

Gu Shitong said a lot of things, but Gu Qingzhu shouldn't have said a word at all.

"What I say, you don't want to listen, then you can sleep, it's just that I just came back, and I haven't settled anywhere yet." Gu Shitong said pitifully.

Gu Qingzhu finally couldn't bear her father's pretending to be pitiful, so she had to get up from the bed and find a futon for Gu Shitong.

"I know that my daughter is the most hurtful." Gu Shitong followed behind her~ into his own room and stammered.

"Don't try to fool me, you said that I won't marry!" Gu Qingzhu took it from the cupboard and viciously smashed a thick futon on his hand. Gu Shitong caught it and said with a smile: "I always have to get married, but I'm afraid that there will be no store in this village when the time comes, and I will regret it later!" ”

Gu Qingzhu choked and said: "What is there to regret, I can't do it myself, that's a hundred regrets!" ”

"What are you going to do?" Gu Shitong asked with a salivating face.

"I want to make fried tea, the first one in Nancang County, and now, you let me marry on the eighth day of the first month, when the tea has not yet sprouted!" Gu Qingzhu was depressed, and her father's words made all her things mess up.

Gu Shitong pursed his lips and didn't answer, only with a bitter face, standing awkwardly on the side like an angry little daughter-in-law.

Gu Qingzhu made the bed and folded the quilt, quickly helped him clean up the futon, clapped his hands and left, without looking at her father's innocent face. For the Honored Academy

"Wen Qing, did I really do something wrong? Qingzhu is big, and her mind is big. Gu Shitong lit another stick of incense in front of his wife's tablet and said in a low voice.

Naturally, no one answered him, and it seemed to be snowing outside again, beating against the lattice.

When Gu Qingzhu returned to the room, she saw that Qingying had fallen asleep, she washed herself, lay on the bed, tilted her head and looked out the window, the bright light reflected in the snow was white and cold, the north wind called, and the snow flew like torn cotton wool, connecting the sky and the earth, endlessly.

On the second day, the snow stopped, the sky was all over the field, covered in silver, and the ground was crystal clear, Gu Qingzhu got up early in the morning to cook porridge, and saw the black cloak hanging in the kitchen to dry, only then did she suddenly remember that her father was back, but as soon as she thought about it, she was going to get married on the eighth day of the first month, and she was extremely depressed in an instant.

The snow in the courtyard was a foot deep, and there was a slapping sound of a broom, Gu Qingzhu was a green pine, poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Qingsong, don't sweep ...... with a broom."

But when she raised her eyes, it was Gu Shitong, she stepped forward and snatched the broom and said, "Dad, I'll come." ”

"Okay." Gu Shitong dropped the broom, picked up the scoop with crushed buds under the porch, and prepared to feed the chickens.

"Dad, I'll come!" Gu Qingzhu grabbed it again.

Gu Shitong looked at Gu Qingzhu, who was holding a broom in his left hand and a scoop in his right hand, and felt a pain in his heart, and said with great pity: "Girl, I've suffered you all these years!" ”

"I don't feel bitter, I just ask my father to stop saying that it's for my good to get married." Gu Qingzhu put down the scoop and broom, found the wooden lift, and pushed the snow in the courtyard to the fence wall.

Gu Shitong stood aside with his hands tied, as soon as he wanted to help with something, he was robbed by Gu Qingzhu, so he had to stand, but Gu Qingzhu did things really fast and well, and after a while, the courtyard was clean, and the chickens, pigs and dogs were all taken care of smoothly.

After Qingying got up, she looked at the snow white in her eyes, she was overjoyed, and she hastily drank a bowl of hot porridge, and pestered Gu Shitong to build a snowman, Gu Shitong owed the most to this little person, how could there be any reason not to agree.

Regardless of the cold, the father and daughter shoveled Gu Qingzhu's snow in one place and slapped it tightly, piling it up as high as an adult.

The Qin family next door got up early in the morning to clear the snow, and saw a man coming out of Gu Qingzhu's house, playing with Qingying affectionately in the snow, she fixed her eyes and took a closer look, and was so frightened that the broom fell off, and the villagers secretly always said that Gu Shitong was eaten by the wolves of the Wild Wolf Valley, yesterday's winter solstice, is this a person or a ghost?

"Qingying!" Qin stood at the door of his house and shouted boldly.

"Aunt Qin, look, my dad built me a big snowman!" Qingying raised her head, pulled her hands together, and said proudly.

"The world is the same...... Big brother, you ...... It's back. Qin's upper and lower teeth only trembled.

Gu Shitong only thought that she was shivering with cold, so he smiled slightly: "Well, I came back yesterday." ”

The faint sunlight occasionally peeked through the thick clouds, elongating the figure of father and daughter and reflecting them on the snow.

The Qin clan stared at the shadow for a long time, and finally believed that Gu Shitong had come back alive.

She smiled and said, "Qingying, I cooked sugar taro, you can eat it later!" ”

"Okay, I'll come when I build a snowman." Gu Qingying smiled and took the corner of Gu Shitong's clothes home.

Placing the round snowball on a high place, Gu Shitong found a few pieces of charcoal that had not been burned through in the stove, made eyes and buttons, and there were leftover radishes from yesterday in the bamboo basket, Qingying picked a small carrot to make her nose.

A cute snowman stood in the courtyard, and the father and son had so much fun that they didn't feel the cold.

"Qingying, come back quickly, look at your shoes are wet, and you will have a cold wind in a while." Gu Qingzhu stood in the door and called.

She couldn't help but wrinkle her eyebrows, this unconscious father, what can he do, do it all to help!

Hearing his eldest daughter say this, Gu Shitong found that Qingying's cotton shoes were wet, and even the skirt was covered with snowflakes, so he hurriedly squatted down and helped her dust.

"Shitong, my son, I have been looking forward to it, you are back!" A thin old woman pushed open the half-hidden door, and when she saw him, she immediately cried and chirped.

When Gu Qingzhu saw the Wu family, his heart was bad, and he only cared about being angry about the marriage yesterday, but forgot to talk about the various bad deeds of grandma and second uncle in the past five years.

Gu Shitong straightened up and said, "Auntie, I have to come back with all my tails, what are you crying about, let people see it, how unlucky." ”

As soon as Gu Qingying saw the Wu family, she immediately instinctively hid behind Gu Shitong, her face pressed tightly against his back, and she didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

"I'm not happy, you've been doing well out there in the past five years." Wu touched the corners of his dry eyes in disguise, grinning, but his eyes flew straight into the hall.

Gu Shitong's eyes moved slightly: "On the battlefield in the south, I almost lost my life several times, but fortunately, Fu Da has a big life, every time there is no danger, and I earn one more life than those robes who died on the battlefield with horse leather shrouds!" It's a ...... indeed."

"Bah, what are those unlucky people doing!" Wu didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then interrupted impatiently.

Gu Shitong smiled and said, "What does A-Niang want me to say?" ”
