Out of the ancient village of Dong Township (novella) Zhang Baotong

Wen Li didn't expect the other party to say this, so she squeaked for a while and said, "However, our Dong people's thinking is still relatively traditional and conservative. The www.biquge.info other party said, "In fact, there are many Dong people in our GX, and there are many people who intermarry and love the Han people, some are Han men who come to the Dong sister's house, and there are many Dong sisters who marry into the Han family." ”

Before Wen Li finished talking to the Guilin tour guide, the tourist was about to get on the bus, so Wen Li hurriedly returned the mobile phone to others. Gina asked Wen Li, "Didn't you ask when the Guilin tour guide came?" I'd like him to bring me a fork with shredded turnips. Wen Li shook her head and said, "No." Then he said, "If you say this kind of thing yourself, I won't say it." A fork of a turnip also has to be brought by the family from Guilin, how much is not worth it. ”

Gina said, "If you don't let him bring a turnip fork and let him bring a color TV, can he bring it?" He just can carry it, and I can't afford it. Yuxiu said on the side, "You can afford it, but Wenli is afraid that she will tire people up." Wen Li snorted ridiculously and annoyedly, and said, "You always make fun of me, if my grandmother and grandma know, you have to scold me to death." ”

After work, after dinner, Wen Li went upstairs and went into her bedroom. The bedroom is not large, eight or nine square meters, and a single bed occupies nearly half of the space. There was a wooden table next to the bed, and the wooden table was very old, as old as an ancient cultural relic. Wen Li sat on a chair and looked at the tour guide in the photo while admiring herself in the mirror. The tour guide was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with a plaid checker, holding a small blue flag, and a leather bag tied around his waist. Seeing him laughing happily and happily, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I don't know if my grandmother heard her laughter, so she called her downstairs, "Wen Li, what are you doing?" Wen Li immediately stretched her head out of the doorway, and when she saw her grandmother sitting alone by the door of the hall to enjoy the shade, she asked, "Grandma, do you have something to do with me?" Grandma said, "Come down, I have something to say to you." ”

Wen Li immediately locked the photos in a drawer, went downstairs, and moved a small stool to sit next to her grandmother. My grandmother is in her sixties, but she works in the fields as usual every day, and her body is still very tough. She took Wen Li's hand affectionately and said, "I went to your aunt's house in Guyu Township today and met your aunt's grandson Shunzheng. I haven't seen you for a few months, and your Shunzheng brother has grown a lot taller, with broad shoulders, a tiger's back, and a bag of millet, and he has his shoulders on his back all of a sudden. Thick lips, big mouth, at first glance is a blessed face with money and food, the age is only two or three years older than you, honest and honest, sensible and reasonable, is a good guy who people like. ”

When Grandma said this, she looked at Wen Li affectionately with her eyes, and then said, "I told your grandma, if our family can recruit such a son-in-law, it will be a blessing for our family." ”

Wen Li went to Guyu Township with her grandmother two months ago and met her honest and honest cousin Brother Shunzheng. Shun is one of the best brothers in the four villages of Dong Township, but if Wen Li wants to fall in love with him and become husband and wife, this is something that Wen Li never even thought of. Wen Li immediately shook her grandmother's hand, and said coquettishly, "Grandma, don't worry about me, I'm still young, and in two or three years, I will choose a brother who makes my grandmother the most favorite." But my grandmother said, "My little sister, you are seventeen years old, it stands to reason that you should have looked for my brother last year, but I blame you for thinking that you are thin and small, so I don't want to find you." ”

said, took Wen Li's hand, and said dotingly, "The good brothers in the world are all visible, if you don't look for it first, you will let others take the lead." I heard your aunt say that several people have already fallen in love with your Shunzheng brother, I'm afraid that if our family doesn't mention the media earlier, we will let others take the lead, and things will be difficult to handle. If you like and agree, I will take you to Guyu Village with your grandma tomorrow to ask someone to ask for a matchmaker, your aunt and I are sisters, and she can't help but listen to me. When Wen Li heard this, she couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Grandma, I heard that there are people who go through the back door to buy things, but I haven't seen anyone who goes through the back door to find my brother." Grandma said seriously, "Going through the back door is better than going through the front door." ”

Wen Li shook her grandmother's hand again, pretending to be unhappy, and said, "I didn't tell you, I'll find my brother by myself, so you don't have to worry about it." Grandma frowned and said, "So you don't like your brother?" Wen Li said, "There are so many sisters who have fallen in love with him, why are we still doing that fun." There are so many good brothers in the world. With that, he shook off his grandmother's hand and went out to look for Yuhua.

Yuhua's house is not far from Wen Li's house, and you can walk through an alley from the bluestone slab path. As soon as I pushed the door open, I saw Brother Ah Xiang chopping water and grass to feed the pigs. Wen Li said, "Brother Xiang, where is Sister Yuhua?" Brother Ah Xiang pointed upstairs and said, "In the house." Wen Li went up the wooden ladder to the upper floor. Seeing that Yuhua had just finished taking a bath, she was wearing a beautiful Dong blue-edged red dress, and she was sticking a silver hairpin into her bun in the mirror. Wen Li pretended to be surprised and smiled, "Yo, where did this fairy come from?" Dressed up so beautifully, which brother are you going to go on a date? ”

Yuhua smiled at Wen Li while sticking a silver hairpin, and said, "You can't dress up if you don't date?" Wen Li said, "Then are you showing Brother Ah Xiang or letting others see it?" Yuhua said, "Whoever likes to watch it, who watches." As he spoke, he took Wen Li's hand and said, "Let's go, there is a duet tonight on the covered bridge by the river behind the village." Let's go over and have some fun. ”

As soon as Wen Li heard that there was a duet party in the evening, she said, "Look at my brain, I have forgotten all such an important thing." Yuhua smiled, "No, my mind is full of that Brother Xu, how can I not forget it." ”

Wen Lijiao said angrily, "Others make me poor and happy, and you won't let me go." Yuhua kept smiling and said, "Okay, I won't talk about you." Let's go. Ke Wenli said, "But I haven't dressed up yet." Yuhua said, "You still dress up with makeup?" If you dress up again, you will pass the fairy, which offspring brother will dare to look at you squarely? With that, he took Wen Li downstairs together.

When she went downstairs to the hall, Wen Li saw that Ah Xiang was still chopping water and grass, so she said, "You won't go and see the song on the bridge tonight." Ah Xiang shook his head and said, "The work at home is not finished yet." When she went out, Wen Li blamed Yuhua and said, "You see that you dress yourself up beautifully all day long, and you have left your family affairs and field work to Brother Ah Xiang, and you are not afraid that he will be angry?" ”
