I haven't seen her for a few years, and Lan (Hua) took the initiative to say hello: "Uncle Ma, busy working?" ”

Martha (M0) Mazi looked surprised and didn't react. Sister Lian www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion said first: "Oh, Lan'er, you underestimate Uncle Ma." Do you look at this outfit and look like a dry masonry carpenter? Collected land rent, lent usury, and opened a grocery grain and oil store in the town. Uncle Ma is free, and he has long stopped doing masonry and carpentry work. ”

Martha (N0) Mazi reacted, ignored Sister Lian, glared and grinned: "My mother, isn't this Miss Orchid?" Hey, hey, it's really the eighteenth change of the female university, you don't call it, Uncle Ma really can't recognize you! ”

Lan'er smiled reservedly.

Martha (N) pockmarked his fingers and said, "Yo, after five years, you graduated?" ”

Lan'er nodded.

Ma Da (M) Mazi was a little embarrassed when she saw that Lan was lukewarm, so she said: "Go back and see Peach, tell her to take the time to go home and have a look, and say that her grandmother misses her." ”

Sister Lian said: "You are talking nonsense, yesterday morning Tao Tao also brought my mother's steamed glutinous rice dumplings back and said that she would eat them for her grandmother." ”

The corners of Ma Da's mouth twitched, and he said, "Yes, why don't I know?" ”

Sister Lian grinned and said, "Do you know? I know how to go to the Cuiyan Building in the city......"

Ma Da (N) Mazi's face was flushed, and he raised his fist to hit Sister Lian. Sister Lian dodged and ran forward. Martha (N0) Mazi put down his fist, smiled, and said, "Lan'er, don't believe your Sister Lian." She likes to chew her tongue and go back and take care of her. ”

After speaking, Martha (N) Mazi took a figure-of-eight leg and walked towards the town. Martha (N) Mazi had just taken a few steps, and he couldn't help but turn around, staring at Miss Orchid's back so stupidly that he forgot to look at the road, and a stone accompanied his feet, and he stumbled, and almost plunged into the ditch by the side of the road. He thought, "Mom, it's more beautiful than she was fourteen, then a green plum, and now a ripe peach." If only you could eat a peach like this, Mom! Martha (N) pockmarked his lips and remembered a poem: Peony flowers die, and ghosts are also romantic!

Sister Lian was in front, Lan'er was behind, one in front and one behind, and walked silently for a while, before Sister Lian turned around and walked face to face with Lan'er. She took a sip vigorously and said, "Martha (N0) pockmarks are really not a thing, there are a few stinky money, and the women in the village are afraid to see him." ”

"His stinky money didn't come from selling peaches to our house." Seeing that Lan'er still didn't agree, Sister Lian continued: "Dad is really, the bride price was given to 400 oceans, and I heard that the bride price is 1,000!" Look at that big (N) pockmark, he bought 20 acres of good paddy fields alone, and has become the largest landlord in Hedong Village. Lan'er suddenly asked, "What about Taotao, is Taotao okay?" ”

Sister Lian's heart sank, and she didn't say anything she wanted to say, but said, "Okay, I'll embroider and weave all day long." I'm happy, go out and pick some mulberry leaves. Hey, the silkworms raised by the third mother are so cute, who wants to see them, without a little mulberry leaves, the third mother is not dependent. ”

A warm current welled up in Lan'er's heart. When she was a child, her mother did not allow her to be lazy, worried that she would crush her body by doing heavy work, so she asked her to pick a basket of mulberry leaves. She spends most of her time picking mulberry leaves catching dragonflies, fluttering butterflies, or going to the pear orchard with her dumb brother to steal peaches, plums, oranges, plums, peanuts or red lings. If you are unlucky and you are caught, they will not beat or scold, and they will say: "Yo, it's the fifth lady of Tusi Mansion, pick a little more." "When my mother knows, she always has to give some broken silver quill to others. Sometimes when it was too late, my mother would support Mrs. Zhang's mother to come out and shout: "Lan'er--go home--the food is cold--"

Lan'er missed her mother, so she couldn't help but speed up her pace.

"Hey, hey, why are you in such a hurry to grab the fire?" Sister Lian saw that Lan'er's steps were faster, and she overtook her, so she didn't go backwards, turned around and chased after her. She said: "You asked Tao Tao just now, I didn't say it, but now I want to say it again." ”

"What do you want to say?" Lan'er slowed down and asked.

Sister Lian pondered for a while and said, "Tao Tao won't have children. ”

Lan'er's heart "chuckled" and sank suddenly. She thought, she is really, for so many years, how many letters have she written to her family, how many times have she greeted the dumb brother, but she forgot to greet Taotao, forgot to ask, did her sister-in-law have it, did she give birth, and seemed to have forgotten the existence of Taotao.

"Is Sister Peach Blossom not good, or is it not good for Big Brother Dumb?" Lan'er asked curiously.

"How can it be a dumb big brother?" Sister Lian poked Lan'er's waist with her fingers and said, "Forgot? ”

"What?" Lan'er's face turned red, as red as the sunset in the sky.

"Pretend!" Sister Lian said.

Of course, Lan'er will not forget. When I was seven or eight years old, it was a summer night in early May - the moonlight was like water, the breeze was breezy, and the insects chirped. Once, the dumb eldest brother was taking a shower by the ancient well under the pomelo tree, and the servant shook his wheel to fetch water, bucket after bucket, which made him shout "oh oh oh oh". Lan'er and Sister Lian just walked around the corner of the wall, unable to resist the temptation of the sound of water and the cry of the dumb big brother, I don't know whose idea it was, the two girls peeked through their heads. The dumb big brother was taking a shower happily, where would he have thought that there were two little she-wolves staring at four little lantern-like eyes peeking? He rubbed his lower body as hard as a steel drill, and when he rubbed the pancreas, he simply hung the towel on it.

Sister Lian whispered, "Look, the towel will bounce up." ”

Lan'er nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

The dumb eldest brother couldn't hear the conversation between Lan'er and Sister Lian, and when the servant heard it, he couldn't help laughing, which frightened Lan'er and Sister Lian into distraction, and ran away with their legs spread like rabbits.

The past is like smoke. It's funny to think about, but it's poignant.

After being silent for a while, Lan'er asked, "Did the second wife and father say anything?" ”

Sister Lian said: "Why don't you say it, I don't know how many times I have muttered in private." ”

Lan'er also felt a little strange, it had been several years, and she hadn't thought about Sister Peach Blossom? On the day of the wedding, Sister Peach Blossom gave her a good impression. Thinking of welcoming her relatives, Lan'er naturally thought of the marriage. In the days when the dumb eldest brother got married, so many strange things flashed in front of him like a dream. Keep cutting, and it's messy! --Since the cutting is still messy, what do you do with cutting it?

"Hey, Lan'er," Sister Lian said, pointing to Qingshui Town shrouded in the sunset under the smoke of a curling cook, "It's time to get to town." ”

"Get in the car, get in the car." Lan'er said, regardless of whether Sister Lian could get on or not, she beckoned He Lao Liu to hurry up and come over.

Sister Lian followed into the car, with a strange face, and said, "After passing through the town, maybe you will meet a few classmates and say hello." ”

"No fight, no fight." Lan'er said and said to He Laoliu: "Tell the horse to run through the town quickly." ”

"Drive!" He Lao Liu shouted, flicked the whip in the air, and the horse spread its hooves, "Da Da, Da Da" and galloped.

When He Lao Liu drove the carriage through Qingshui Town, he liked the horses to spread their hooves and run quickly. This is the majesty of the Tusi Mansion. The horse was running happily, and He Lao Liu suddenly called "hoo-hoo--", and the sound of the horse's hooves changed from a rapid "dada" to a slow "dede" sound.

Lan'er asked, "Why didn't the horse run away?" ”

He Lao Liu said: "There are four young masters and Teacher Dai walking in front, tell them to get in the car." ”

Sister Lian shouted angrily: "Who told you to make your own decisions, ah? ”

"He Lao Liu, run!" Lan'er played a round and said, "Otherwise, when Sister Lian and Teacher Dai are jealous and fight, what should you be guilty of?" ”

"Drive! Drive! He Lao Liu smiled, the cry started again, and the horse galloped again.

Sister Lian put her hand on Lan'er's knee and said, "Just what you can say......"
