Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Woman's Hope for Life
Time flies so fast, ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, on this day, Ding Qian was in the courtyard of Hu Hai's house to Hu Ge, Qiu Ju, Xia He and other fifteen girls to conduct house sales training, only to see a family looking like a person driving a richly decorated and elegant ox cart over.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, horses were used for the needs of the army, except for the generals and the imperial personnel, if other people took horses, it must be approved by the emperor, otherwise it would be punished as a violation of the criminal law, so the common people generally took sedan chairs and donkeys in and out, and the rich and powerful people took the carts pulled by oxen. The sturdy ox, pulling a luxuriously decorated float, walked slowly and leisurely on the street step by step, which shows how leisurely it was.
The luxurious ox cart, the beautiful woman on the ox cart, that is really a flowing landscape, what is it called, that is one word: cattle! Two words: ox X, three words: the most bull X.
As soon as the bullock cart, which was covered with black satin velvet and ornaments with glass, tassels, and colored silk, stopped, the family stepped forward and lifted the curtain on the door, and said softly in a respectful voice: "Miss, you have arrived at the place, please get off." ”
Everyone in the yard looked at the car door, and saw a pair of pink satin embroidered shoes, slowly stretched out from the car door, and gently stepped on the low stool placed by the family under the car, and then a man stood out of the caravan, with a bright golden hairpin on his head, a sable fur collar around his neck, wearing a crimson satin jacket, and a long skirt that dragged the floor, and a slender woman, the woman gently stepped off the low stool, took small steps, and walked lightly towards the yard, waving her hand gently as she walked: "Hello sisters! Why don't you know me! ”
Let's take a look! Isn't this Su Cherry, I haven't seen her for more than 20 days, and she has changed from a rustic girl to a bejeweled lady.
Su Cherry grinned and said, "Why are you looking at people like this!" It's embarrassing to see people. ”
Ding Qian pointed to a stool and said, "Oh, it turned out to be a cherry girl, please take a seat." ”
Su Cherry shook her head and said, "Shopkeeper Ding, you are busy here, I won't sit down, I'm here to find Sister Xia He." I wonder if you can let me talk to her. ”
Ding Qian nodded and said, "Okay, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”
Su Cherry gently waved her hand to Xia He and said, "Come, Sister Xia He, I have something to do with you, let's go outside the courtyard and talk about it." ”
Xia He stood up and followed Su Cherry outside, Su Cherry pulled Xia He into the distance and said, "Sister, how do you see your sister dressed up?" ”
Xia He nodded honestly and said, "Very good, Sister Cherry, you look even more beautiful in this dress." ”
Su Cherry lightly patted Xia He's face and said, "Look at this little mouth, how good it is." Then he pointed to the car and said, "Sister, look at the car I'm riding in!" ”
Xia He said: "Of course, it's also very luxurious." ”
Su Cherry said softly: "Sister, do you want to wear such beautiful clothes and ride in such a luxurious car like your sister!" ”
Xia He said softly: "Yes, of course I think about it, I just dream about it, but I have the blessing of your cherry sister there." ”
Su Cherry said: "Girl, don't be so humble, as long as you can think about it, all this is fine." ”
Xia He said with a blank face: "Sister Cherry, why can't I understand what you mean!" ”
Su Cherry said: "Sister Xia He, what do you think a girl from a poor family like us can rely on to get ahead?" ”
Xia He shook his head and said, "Sister Cherry, the more you talk about me, the more confused I become." ”
Su Cherry slapped and said, "Ouch, silly girl, I've been talking for a long time, why are you still so unenlightened." Then he patted his chest with his hand, and then reached out and gently twisted Xia He's face and said: "You say, we women don't rely on this figure while we are young, and this face goes to live a good life, and when we are old, won't we regret dying." ”
Xia He blushed and said, "Sister Cherry, I understand this time, but a person like me, and that rich man will take a fancy to me!" ”
Su Cherry pretended to be surprised and said: "Tut-tut, Sister Xia He, seeing where you said you went, just your smile showed the small appearance of two little tiger teeth, that man didn't like it." Needless to say, my Chen Lang's buddy named Qiu Yucheng has taken a fancy to you. ”
Xia blushed and muttered, "But...... However, doesn't that Qiu Gongzi already have a mother-in-law! ”
Su Cherry saw that Xia He was a little moved, and said: "Oh, my stupid girl, what years have you been, that man who has some ability is not a man with three wives and four concubines." Look at my family's Chen Lang, although he didn't carry me home as a Ming media wife, but people are really afraid of me in their mouths, and they are afraid of falling in their hands, and they love me in every way. What do you say we women are trying to do in this life, aren't you just trying to find a man who loves you and loves you, and is willing to spend a lot of money on you! You see, sister didn't rely on Chen Lang's son, so she turned around gorgeously, and the crow turned into a phoenix! ”
Xia He lowered his head and kicked the stone on the ground with his feet and said, "Sister Cherry, you let me think about this matter carefully, okay!" ”
Su Cherry smiled: "Hehe, Sister Xia He, what else is there to think about in this matter, I can tell you, there are many girls who go to the chase to find someone Qiu Gongzi, if you are thinking about it, don't blame others for taking the lead, there is no such shop in this village, and you won't be in a hurry to cry when the time comes." ”
Xia He raised his head and looked at the golden hairpin and the clothes on Su Cherry's head, turned his head to look at the luxuriously decorated ox cart, and stomped his feet and said, "Okay, Sister Cherry, women are going to marry sooner or later, I decided, listen to you." ”
Su Cherry happily stepped forward and hugged Xia He's shoulder, and kissed her on the cheek and said, "Good girl, that's right, when you come over, the two of us will have a companion." ”
Xia He said: "Then let's leave now?" ”
Su Cherry smiled lightly and said meaningfully: "What about that, it's in broad daylight, it's not convenient to do anything, you go to Qianchun Tower at night, and we are all waiting for you there." As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and stuffed it into Xia He's hand and said thoughtfully: "You take this bit of silver, and hire a sedan chair to carry you there at night." ”
Xia He nodded vigorously and said, "I know, Sister Cherry." Then he turned and walked into the courtyard.
Su Cherry shouted: "Sister Xia He, you go slowly, I still have something to say." ”
Xia He stopped, turned around and said, "Sister Cherry, what else do you have to say?" ”
Su Cherry pointed to the people in the courtyard: "Sister, don't talk about yourself with those people!" ”
Xia He said: "Sister, you can rest assured, my sister is not stupid enough to do that." ”
Su Cherry waved her hand and said, "Okay, I'll go, see you in the evening!" With that, he gently lifted the hem of his skirt with his hand, got into the ox cart, and said to the family: "Go, go home!" ”
Xia He returned to the courtyard, and Qiu Ju asked, "Xia He, what happened to that vixen Su Cherry coming to you?" ”
Xia He blushed and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm not here to catch up." ”
Qiu Ju said contemptuously: "Who are you doing, that slut comes to you, it must be no good thing, good things don't go back to people, it's okay to go back to people." ”
Hu Ge said beside him: "But isn't it, the two of you have been muttering there for a long time, and there are so many things to say." ”
Seeing this, Ding Qian shouted: "Hu Ge, Qiu Ju, don't ask endless questions there. What the hell, come and listen to me. ”
Hu Ge, Qiu Ju, Xia He and others had to return to their places and sit down, listening to Ding Qian's continued talk about the theory of house sales.
However, although these girls seemed to be listening carefully, their hearts had already wandered. Everyone saw the clothes of Su Cherry, as well as the bright golden hairpin on his head, and knew that Su Cherry had been raised by Chen Lang's son, although everyone's face showed a look of disdain, but their hearts were full of jealousy, envy, and hatred.
Jealous of Su Cherry, who had just left everyone, was reborn, with a graceful and luxurious appearance, Niu B came to revisit his hometown.
I envy Su Cherry's luxurious car and luxurious clothes.
hate, why don't you have that blessing, and you are favored by the son of that rich and noble family!
Alas, my appearance is not much worse than Su Cherry, why is it not favored by anyone, it is really more people than people have to die, and goods have to be thrown away.
In fact, the jealousy, envy and hatred in a woman's heart, to put it bluntly, is that she can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour!
As soon as a woman becomes sour, she will scold other women for being vixens!
In fact, every woman dreams of becoming a fox spirit, but unfortunately she is afraid that she does not have that Taoism, her appearance is not passable, and her inner cultivation may not be on the stage.
Speaking of Su Cherry, the tongue bloomed for a while, and the Xia He girl was moved, and promised to go to Qianchun Building for a party in the evening, she was really unspeakably happy in her heart, originally with Su Cherry's personality, since she had climbed the big tree of Chen Lang, she would never return to this ghost place after leaving here, but just yesterday, Qiu Yucheng came to the door with two boxes of snacks and said to Su Cherry: "Sister-in-law, are you happy with my brother Chen Lang?" ”
Chen Lang said with a smile: "Hehe, Brother Qiu, you see the cherry face full of spring breeze, do you still need to ask!" ”
Qiu Yucheng put down his snack and said: "As long as you are happy, but you don't just care about your own happiness and leave your little brother alone." ”
Su Cherry smiled: "Brother Qiu, you are such a big person, there is something we need to take care of." ”
Qiu Yucheng sighed and said, "Alas, sister-in-law, you don't know, I have suffered an illness these days. ”
Chen Lang said: "Brother Yucheng, you kid is as strong as a cow, why didn't I see your sick appearance!" ”
Qiu Yucheng patted his heart and said, "Brother Chen, I am suffering from lovesickness here." ”
Chen Lang said: "Oh, I don't know that little woman, let your brother move his heart." ”
Qiu Yucheng said: "There can still be a girl from that family, which can make me tempted." Is it the girl named Xia He who is with her sister-in-law? Brother Chen, sister-in-law, our family doesn't talk about two families, you say, I, Qiu Yucheng, have never seen a woman, but since I saw the Xia He girl who smiled and showed two little tiger teeth, my soul ran away with her, I really thought about it day and night. ”
Su Cherry smiled after hearing this: "Brother Yucheng, don't you have a mother-in-law, why do you remember that the little girl is here." ”
Qiu Yucheng said shamelessly: "Sister-in-law, if you are there, oh, if you have a mother-in-law, don't you want me to worry about other women, my brother Chen Lang, and my wife, men, I am afraid of many women." ”
Chen Lang nodded and said, "That's it, Brother Qiu and I are really heroes." ”
Qiu Yucheng said to Su Cherry: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, my mother-in-law is an ugly monster, a tigress, and she has been dancing with me all day long, and that one can stand it." If it weren't for the fact that her father was the prime minister back then, would I have been able to marry her! ”
Chen Lang said: "Yes, what Brother Qiu said is extremely true. However, if you want Miss Xia He, just go and chase it directly, what are you doing with your sister-in-law? ”
Qiu Yucheng stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp and smirked: "Hehe, Brother Chen, you also know that I am thin-skinned and not as brave as you, so I want to ask my sister-in-law to match it." ”
Before Su Cherry could speak, Chen Lang slapped the table and said, "Okay, I think your sister-in-law can help with this." As he spoke, he said to Su Cherry: "Cherry, how about you help Brother Qiu, who made him your father-in-law's iron buddy!" ”
Su Cherry smiled, stepped forward and hugged Chen Lang's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Since the Xianggong has spoken, how can Cherry not listen." Then he raised his head and said to Qiu Yucheng: "Brother Yucheng, as far as I know, this matchmaker is not in vain!" ”
Qiu Yucheng nodded again and again: "That's it, that's it, sister-in-law is right." As he spoke, he took out twenty taels of silver from his sleeve, threw it on the table and said, "Sister-in-law, this is the sole wear fee for you, and after the matter is completed, Yucheng will still have a lot of thanks." ”
Su Cherry hurriedly said: "I was just joking with you, why did you really pay for the money." ”
Chen Lang smiled and grabbed the silver and stuffed it into Su Cherry's hand and said, "Since my brother gave it, you can take it, and when you go to see my father-in-law tomorrow when you go to find Miss Xia He, you can use the twenty taels of silver to buy some gifts for his old man." ”
Su Cherry took the silver and said to Qiu Yucheng: "Brother Yucheng, this matter is wrapped up in my sister-in-law, don't worry, I will talk to it." ”
Qiu Yucheng couldn't wait to kneel on the ground and snort his head, and said with a smile on his face: "Thank you sister-in-law for her adult beauty, if Miss Xia He agrees, you can ask her to go to Qianchun Tower tomorrow night." Then he said, "Well, I won't disturb the honeymoon life of the two of you." With that, he walked out.
Chen Lang looked at Qiu Yucheng's back and said, "Hmph, just because you look like a tank, you also want to soak in a little girl." ”
Su Cherry stretched out her slender finger and pointed at Chen Lang's head and said, "Hmph, you still say with a shy face, you men have a good thing." ”
Chen Lang laughed and said, "Haha, we men are not a good thing, but you women can't do without." As he spoke, he picked up Su Cherry and threw it on the wide new bed and said, "Come baby, I'll let you see if a man is a good thing." The two of them quickly rolled over on the bed......
