She seemed to be seventeen or eighteen years old, but she could also be fifteen or sixteen.

She was well-proportioned, and her posture was as beautiful as a girl, but her eyes were as clear as water, and her expression and demeanor were still childish, as if she was not much older than a little girl in the prime of her life.

Her skin was delicate, but not fair, she should have walked a lot, and the sun was coated with a layer of honey-like color.

Her skin is dense and smooth, but her palms are rough and thick with calluses, and she may often do heavy work.

She had long, jet-black hair, but she had haphazardly pulled two mustaches, and now she looked shaggy and shabby, with several strands of hair falling out.

The clothes she wore were crude, heavy, dark and shabby, and did not fit well, presumably repurposed from someone else's old clothes.

She sat barefoot on the floor without shoes, her ankles exposed, and there were several mosquito bites on her skin.

She was obviously a poor girl, but that didn't seem to stop her from living happily. At this moment, she was holding a few tasseled reeds, swinging the mosquitoes and flies around her from side to side, and softly humming a song in her mouth.

It seems that last night's incident did not affect her good mood. If she is a person like the Qinglou woman, this is naturally not surprising, but ...... She was clearly a virgin before.

This is also the reason why Feng Jing felt embarrassed and guilty after sobering up. So although he had already woken up, he still did not sit up immediately to talk to her, and remained in a sleeping position, his eyes only slightly open, and quietly looked at the girl whom he had offended by the morning light, which gradually brightened.

She seems, as if, did not dislike him for it. Because most of the mosquitoes and flies she drove away were by his side.

A tiny mosquito landed on his jaw, and her reed dust immediately killed it, and the reed spike passed through his nose, and Feng Jing couldn't help but sneeze.

I had to open my eyes to meet her shining eyes.

"Are you awake?" She leaned over and asked, her big eyes even tinged with joy.

He had to sit up, bow his head, and dare not look at her for a long time. After being silent for a long time, he said, "May I ask the girl." ”

"Huh?" She was stunned and didn't answer.

So he put it another way: "What's your name?" ”

"Oh," she understood, and replied with a smile, "My surname is Wang, and my name is Yuanyuan." ”

"How do you write it?" He politely bowed over and asked.

"Write?" She stared at him in amazement, as if she had heard an incredible question, and laughed out loud, "I don't know! I can't write a word. ”

"So," he asked, "why did your family give you that name?" ”

She quickly gave the answer: "Because my dad loves ingots—even though he has never touched a real ingot." ”

In this way, her name is "Yuan Yuan". Feng Jing pondered, picked up a branch, and wrote these two words on the ground.

The girl looked at him and asked him, "Is that how my name is written?" ”

He didn't answer immediately, he raised his eyes to see the smoke and clouds in front of him, and then added three more points of water to the left of each word.

"Yuanyuan," he said softly, to her, "your name will be written like this from now on." ”

She happily touched the handwriting on the wet earth with her fingers, and followed the strokes one by one. Then he also asked his name, and he told her that he also wrote it, and she continued to study, with a smile and a word in her mouth: "Feng ...... Capital city...... Beijing ......"

In terms of appearance alone, she is not a beauty, but this innocent demeanor is extremely cute. Feng Jing watched silently, feeling more and more annoyed in his heart.

"I'm sorry." He lowered his eyes and sincerely apologized.

She was stunned for a moment, but immediately realized what he was referring to, stopped her movements, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind, took out the Jin Chuan in his arms and handed it to her: "This is for you." ”

He wanted to make amends to her, and it was the most precious thing he had at the moment.

She hesitated, but didn't reach out to take it, "Are you going to give me money?" ”

"No," he immediately denied, thought for a moment, and said, "This is a gift for you." ”

Only then did she happily accept it and put Jin Chuan on her wrist.

He was speechless for a while, looked around blankly, and saw a flat boat moored near the water, so he asked Yuan Yuan, "Are you here by boat?" Do you live near here? ”

"Yes, my house is in Lotus Dock two miles away." She said, as if she suddenly remembered something, and continued: "By the way, yesterday when I came back from fishing, I met a big boat upstream, with two floors, and many fairy-like sisters on it...... Someone stopped me and asked me if I was coming in this direction, and I said yes, and a lady came out of the cabin and ordered someone to take some money for me, saying that I saw a Xiucai on the boat and ran after the boat for a long time, and now it is far away from the county seat, and I am afraid that it is not convenient to go back, so I asked him to take him back to the school hall by the way. I searched all the way, and it was dark that I found you lying here...... Are you the showman she said? ”

Feng Jing was silent, his gaze stayed on the Jin Chuan that Yuan Yuan was wearing now for a long time, and only after a while did he look away gloomily and replied, "No." ”

"Oh......" Yuan Yuan nodded, suddenly clapped his hands and stood up, and said with a smile: "Whether it is or not, you should go back too?" Come, take my boat, and I will carry you. ”

When she got on the boat, she refused his help, and led him to the city with a skillful oars.

She is not tall and rude, but she pierces through the reeds, and her attitude is relaxed and leisurely. He sat on the bow of the boat, hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask her, "Last night...... Why didn't you push me away? ”

"Pushed!" She opened a pair of black and white eyes and told the facts: "Originally, I had been pushing ......"

He bowed his head in amazement, and almost plunged headlong into the clear stream of blue abyss beside him.

Coughing lightly in disguise, he whispered again, "I mean, ...... in the end."

If she insisted on resisting, he would not be able to use force.

It was a question that gave her a lot of thought. Frowning lightly, she still didn't find the answer, and then she only said confusedly: "I don't know ...... either"

"Will you come to see me later?" When parting, Yuan Yuan asked.

He didn't dare to promise her, only smiled faintly.

She was also very well-behaved, and turned away silently, without asking again.

A few days later, Feng Jing packed his bags, left Yuhang, and returned to Jiang Xia's mother.

He didn't find the peace he was looking forward to in Jiangxia. Whether facing the book or closing his eyes, everything in Yuhang seems to be vivid, sometimes it is the shadow behind the curtain, sometimes it is the Yuanyuan on the water's edge. He began to wander the alleys and drink uninhibitedly, but it was still difficult to erase the images that repeatedly swept through his heart.

His mother often looked at him worriedly, shaking her head and sighing from time to time.

"Brother Jing'er should find a daughter-in-law." The neighbor's aunt smiled when she saw this and said to Mrs. Feng.

In the days that followed, the main guest of the Feng family was the matchmaker. In the end, Feng Jing was overwhelmed and asked his mother to travel again.

"Where do you want to go this time?" Mrs. Feng asked.

Feng Jing also asked himself this question many times, as if he couldn't help but think that the destination he finally chose was Yuhang.

went to Lotus Dock to find Yuanyuan, originally just to see her.

But at the beginning, from the eyes and tones of the locals he asked, he felt a little different.

"Wang Yuanyuan?" They usually repeated his name, then looked him up and down, with a hint of an ambiguous smile, before pointing out to him where Yuan Yuan lived.

When he saw Yuan Yuan, she was picking up an oar, rushing out of her thatched house, and viciously chasing the two men.

She caught up with a slow runner, and with a "snap", the oar struck the man firmly on the leg.

She slammed the oar to the ground, and the gold on her wrist swayed with the movement, glistening in the sunlight. "If you dare to come to the door and say something unclean, the old lady will see a pair of them!" She frowned and announced.

The person who was beaten continued to run with a limp, but he didn't forget to turn around and scold her: "I have a wild seed in my stomach that I don't know who my father is, and I have a face that pretends to be three chastity and nine spirits!" ”

Feng Jing was surprised, and looked at Yuan Yuan's abdomen, only to find that it was indeed slightly bulging, and she should be pregnant.

Yuan Yuan didn't argue when he heard this, he pointed to the entrance, whistled loudly, and immediately a black dog ran out from behind the house. Yuan Yuan pointed at the man in front of him and ordered: "Bite him!" ”

The black dog chased after him, and the man screamed and ran with his head in his hands.

Yuan Yuan smiled proudly, carrying the oars and preparing to go back to the house, but when he turned around, the whole person was completely stunned, frozen in place, unable to move again.

Feng Jing stood in front of her and called her with a smile: "Yuan Yuan." ”

She didn't say yes. Silently watching him for a moment, one hand cramped his protruding abdomen.

He noticed it and cautiously asked, "Mine?" ”

She hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded.

He stood solemnly and did not speak again for a long time. She frowned slightly, looked down at his toes for a while, and glanced at him uneasily, pitifully, as if asking, "Don't you believe it?" ”

"Ling Zun ......" He finally spoke again, before he said these two words, and immediately changed his words: "Your father, are you at home?" ”

"He went out fishing." Yuan Yuan replied.

"Oh...... Can you tell me his name? ”

"Wang Ah Liu."

"And what's your name?"

"The king has wealth."

"Where's your father-in-law?"

Wang Fugui ...... Why do you ask so clearly? Yuan Yuan asked vigilantly, "Do they owe you money?" ”

"Well, no...... This is called 'asking for a name', and at the beginning of the proposal, it should be said that three generations of names should be recounted. Feng Jing explained, giving her a gentle smile, "Yuan Yuan, I want to marry you." ”

She stared at him in disbelief, and suddenly burst out crying.

No girl of this age had ever cried like a child in front of him. He was so panicked that he hurriedly led her back to the house, and after a long time of kind words and comfort, she stopped slightly.

Then she didn't say anything, but looked at him with wide, tear-stained eyes.

"Why do you look at me like that?" He smiled and asked her, "Do I have ingots on my face?" ”

"Nope." She replied seriously: "However, you are much better looking than Yuanbao." ”
