In the afternoon, Shoko was loading the car. When Juanzi didn't know what to do, she slipped behind her and mischievously pressed her fingers against Shoko's waist. The urn said angrily: "Leave the goods and leave!" Otherwise, Lao Tzu will kill you! ”

Xiangzi was stunned for a moment. Then, immediately raise your hand into the air. The voice said timidly: "A good man spares his life!" The goods belong to the owner, even if they are taken, the life is mine, leave it for me. ”

Juanzi giggled, punched Xiangzi lightly on the back and said, "Look at you, you're not a loyal minister." The owner's goods, let the family take them, wow? ”

Xiangzi smiled gently at her and said, "If you keep your life, you can also earn money back for the owner." If you put your life on the line, isn't it just a lack of talent? ”

Juanzi gave him a blank look, and muttered, "Poor mouth! ”

Juanzi circled the carriage and circled nonchalantly. It was as if I suddenly remembered what it was. looked a little excited, and said, "Tomorrow, will you go to Shuimogou to deliver the goods?" ”

Xiangzi looked at her in a daze. Nodded blankly. Juanzi smiled childishly and said, "Great! I'll go too! ”

Xiangzi smiled at her, and said in a dull voice, "Can the shopkeeper let you go?" ”

Juanzi, with the big braid on her chest, gracefully threw it behind her. He pursed his mouth and said, "Hmph! This girl has already decided that she will not be allowed to go, but she must go. As he spoke, the cheerful figure floated towards the house.

Xiangzi, I can't know more about this Juanzi, who is also a master and friend. As long as it is something she decides to do, she will always have a way to deal with it, despite the opposition of Shopkeeper Yao. And the last one to give in can only be the shopkeeper Yao.

Xiangzi, while continuing to load the goods, was happy in her heart.

Speaking from the heart, he wished that Juanzi would go with him. It's not just that there's a talking person on the road. Instead, every time he goes out alone with Juanzi, he has an incomparably pleasant sense of mission and a hint of sweetness. For Juanzi, although he didn't dare to think about it. But I cherish very much, the warm enjoyment when I am with her.

Shoko quickly adjusted the position of the goods on the car. Near his seat, he made a place and covered it with sheepskins. He wanted Juanzi to sit comfortably.

Early in the morning of the second day, Juanzi blocked Yao's shopkeeper in the yard. said that he wanted to follow Xiangzi and go to Shuimogou. Shopkeeper Yao glanced at her in a daze. Then, with an unhappy face, he said, "You girl, you want to play a play." On a hot day, if you don't stay at home, you can't run around. ”

Juanzi grimaced at him and turned around and went back to the house. Waiting for Shopkeeper Yao to come out of the thatched house, he walked around the courtyard. saw a handsome and white descendant appear in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, then pointed at the afterlife with a strange expression. The helpless emotion was so suppressed that he couldn't speak. In that later life, he took a deep look at him and said, "Yao Gongzi, I have seen my father." ”

Shopkeeper Yao, looking at the future life with a smile and tears. In the end, the crying was drowned out by laughter. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the future life, muttering, "Do your best!" ”

It turned out that Juanzi heard her father say that the girl is long and the girl is short. turned back to the house, coiled up his braids, changed into a men's green cloth robe, wore an octagonal wire mesh hood, and wore black cloth round shoes. When Shopkeeper Yao saw her, he put so much effort into going out. He didn't say anything more, shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked towards the house.

Last night's weather was gloomy. Not even half a star, without showing a face. Towards dawn, there were a few drops of rain. Shoko is worried that she will get drenched in the rain today.

As soon as it was dawn, he got up and rushed out of the house. He tilted his head and looked around for a moment. It was only then that a hanging heart fell into the stomach. In his experience, there is no rain today.

I went back to the house and lay lazily on the kang, thinking about it for a while. Then he turned over and got off the kang again, hummed a tuneless song, and went to the sink to wash his face. On the way back to the house, I saw the scene where the father and daughter of the Yao family played a scene in which a woman dressed as a man. I almost laughed out loud. I had to hold back in the house, and I tossed with a smile and cough before I could be relieved.

He knew Juanzi too well. If she had laughed out loud at the time, she would have had to have a brain. She'll think you're laughing at her.

Xiangzi set up the car, and Juanzi learned to follow the example and strode to him.

Shoko, deliberately pretending not to see it, continued to bow her head and fiddle with the carriage. Juanzi was behind him, coughed dryly twice, and then said, "Where is Young Master Ben sitting?" ”

Xiangzi suddenly turned around and said, "I didn't know that the young master had arrived, and I was disappointed." ”

Juanzi couldn't hold back at first, and bent over with a "giggle" laugh. At this time, Xiangzi also laughed happily with her. Although, the meaning of the laughter of the two, is different. But there is one thing, it is the same. That is, at the moment, both of them are very happy.

God may favor Juanzi who doesn't go out often. The fish-scale clouds, layer upon layer, enveloped the July sun tightly. The sky was far behind, only to the east, and the horizon of the sky was revealing a white light.

Xiangzi and Juanzi talked and laughed along the way. Before you know it, you have already left the city gate.

The number of pedestrians on the road gradually decreased. Houses in the suburbs, although they look messy. But under the foil of various trees and flowers, it can also be called natural and plain beauty. After crossing the river beach and turning right, you will find the main road leading to Shuimogou.

The houses on both sides of the road are gradually thinning. And the elm trees of uneven height are gradually increasing. Sometimes, horse-drawn carriages pass through the shade of the canopy.

Juanzi stretched out her hand to break off a branch and played with it in her hand, as if she suddenly remembered something, she smiled mysteriously at Xiangzi and said, "Brother Xiangzi, have you ever thought about marrying a daughter-in-law?" ”

When Xiangzi heard this, he was stunned at first, then smiled innocently and said, "The shopkeeper didn't say it." ”

Juanzi raised her hand, took the branch and put it on Shoko's shoulder, and twitched. Pretending to be displeased, he said, "What I'm saying is, have you ever thought about it?" ”

Shoko didn't say anything, just pursed her lips and smiled. Juanzi moved her ass and twisted her body towards Shoko. In a tone, like a teacher, he said, "Did you think about it in this way?" ”

Shoko glanced at her sideways. See her pretending look. I couldn't help it, "poof", and laughed. provoked Juanzi, and also let out a string of silver bell-like laughter.

After calming down for a while, Juanzi yelled at Xiangzi again and smiled strangely. Staring at a pair of curious and eager eyes, he looked at Xiangzi and asked, "Hey, what kind of daughter-in-law do you want to marry?" ”

Shoko smiled at her, her slightly dark cheeks red to the base of her neck. Seeing his embarrassed look, Juanzi pretended to be unhappy and said, "There are no outsiders, look at your twisted and pinched look." Can't you say it generously? ”

Shoko raised her hand, wiped her face, and scratched the back of her head. He glanced at her with a smile on his face, and stopped talking. Juanzi was so anxious that she punched him in the shoulder. With a gloomy face, he said, "Say it quickly!" It's boring, it's boring. ”

Shoko scratched the back of her head a few more times. He took a deep breath and, as if he had made up his mind, said, "I thought, hey! My daughter-in-law, first of all, has to read and break words and understand things. ”

Holding back the first sentence, Shoko seemed to be much more relaxed. With a sweet smile on his face, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he had unfolded a beautiful picture in his heart, and said: "Secondly, she can't wrap her little feet, it's best to have practiced martial arts." In this way, we can compare and contrast in our leisure time, and we don't look bored. Besides, it's better to have a big braid, and the skin should be white. Well, yes, you have to be able to ride a horse and shoot a gun......"

Shoko, is dreaming and saying beautifully. Suddenly, he was punched hard by Juanzi and almost didn't fall out of the car. He looked at Juanzi in a daze, and saw that her angry cheeks were flushed. A pair of almond eyes, staring at himself like a cold star.

Shoko waved her hands indiscriminately without knowing what to do. In his mouth, he muttered without turns, "No, I mean...... Let's say, hey! You forced me to say it. ”

Shoko's face was purple at this time. Bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks like beads of broken thread.

Juanzi stared at Shoko's gaze and gradually kneaded it. In the end, he was "snorted" and laughed, diluted into a soft light. However, that light sparkled Shoko's eyes. Suddenly, a warm thing gradually sank from the throat.

After a moment of unbearable silence. It was Juanzi who broke it first, this dull and embarrassing, and inexplicably pleasant atmosphere. She leaned back, and her sarcastic words evolved into a yin and yang tone, saying, "Unexpectedly, your conditions are really not low." ”

Shoko's face was already stiffened by shame and a strange warmth. Seeing that Juanzi finally opened her mouth, she let out a long sigh. He snorted: "Talking nonsense and playing nonsense." ”

Juanzi deliberately diverted the topic and said, "Why am I sleepy, hum a little song." ”

So, Shoko tore away her unbeautiful voice. In a toneless voice, he began to sing. The voice is sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low. Although it is not pleasant, it is full of joy and joy.

Xiangzi handed over the goods and settled the payment for the last batch, and it was past noon. Juanzi had been shouting for a long time that she was hungry. Shoko took her to a noodle restaurant and asked for two spicy pork noodles.

Don't say it, this spicy skin and pork noodles are also famous in the northwest. Soak a thick dried chili pepper in cold water and cut it into cubes, then stir-fry it with green onions, ginger and garlic and mutton, add a little broth, and boil it into a semi-dry sauce. Pour over the noodles and serve with a small plate of salted leeks. Hey! It's beautiful when you eat it. Juanzi even ate a big bowl.

The sun is the most roasting time after noon. In the morning sky, the clouds that floated, I don't know where the breeze blew. The blue and deep sky left only a few traces, like new flocculents, white traces. A goshawk, trying to hover high in the air, shrunk in size, with a bird's-eye view of everything on the earth.

Shoko parked the carriage under the big elm tree. Remove the horse feed bag and place it under the horse's front hooves. Then, like a leopard, he climbed up the tree.

Juanzi stood in the carriage, stretched out her arms, and enjoyed the pleasant coolness in the shade of the trees. After a while, Shoko brought a bundle of fresh branches. He skillfully tied a tree branch to the carriage into a simple and artistic canopy. Then, Chong Juanzi bowed comically and waved his hand: "Please Young Master Yao, stay in the car." ”

Juanzi was intently playing with the insects that fell on the ground with small branches. When he looked up sharply, he saw Shoko's appearance, and sat on the ground with a smile.

Juanzi slipped into the simple but practical, poetic canopy. Although the stubborn sun still stubbornly penetrates the branches and leaves, sprinkling and dyeing the interior of the car into mottled spots of light. But it also blocked the direct rays of strong light, leaving a piece of reassuring coolness.
