Chapter Seventy-Six: Kneeling Zhou Xiumei
(Cat flutter Chinese) On the second day, the sixth aunt above asked someone to bring a message to the Lu family, saying that it was time for the two families to sit down and talk together. When Lu Baowen heard this, Mei almost jumped up.
Lu Baowen's father and his mother are honest people with simple temperaments, and when they saw that their son liked them, they naturally had no opinions, so they made an appointment with the Chinese to meet the two families, and turned around and began to prepare for the eldest son's marriage. The two were discussing in the courtyard about inviting a few tables of wine when their son got married, when there was a knock on the courtyard door.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was a strange little girl in her teens, wearing a brand-new green silk dress, two braids braided into the red rope, eyebrows, and smeared lipstick, which looked carefully dressed.
In the past few years, there have been a lot of little girls who have come to play at the door, all of them are coming for their eldest son, and they can usually stop one by one, Lu Baowen is hiding from them like hiding from flies.
Lu Baowen's father can be regarded as having seen a lot, and sighed: "Hey, little girl, looking for my family Baowen?" ”
"Well, what about Brother Baowen?" The girl was very direct, and her tone was a little eager, and she didn't seem very polite.
Lu Baowen didn't like it a little bit.
But after all, she has a simple temperament, even if she doesn't like it anymore, Lu Baowen's mother won't say anything too ugly, she just persuaded: "Little girl, you better go back." In the past few days, my family Baowen is going to say kiss, and he is very busy. ”
"What?! Say pro?! With whom?! The girl's voice sharpened suddenly.
Lu Baowen listened to the movement, heard the sound and went out of the courtyard, and when he saw someone coming, he frowned slightly, but he still restrained his temper and said in a deep voice: "Miss Zhou, I've been very busy these days, so don't come over." ”
This "Miss Zhou" is naturally Zhou Xiumei.
When she heard this, she was so anxious that she didn't even look at it, and ran to Lu Baowen: "Brother Baowen, if you want to say kiss, who are you talking about?!" ”
Zhou Xiumei's rush didn't matter, she almost knocked Lu Baowen's mother into a stumble, Lu Baowen and his father hurriedly supported him, his beard trembled with anger, and he thought that if he didn't see her as a little girl, he had to beat her hard.
Lu Baowen saw that his mother was in danger, so he let go of the heart that he had just mentioned, but when he looked at Zhou Xiumei again, he was a little uncontrollable anger.
Only then did Zhou Xiumei realize that she was too reckless, and apologized again and again, and Lu Baowen's mother looked a little soothed. As a result, Zhou Xiumei just apologized on the front foot, and the back foot was in a hurry to interrogate Lu Baowen: "Brother Baowen, who are you going to say?" ”
Seeing her stubborn appearance, Lu Baowen subconsciously didn't want to tell her, for fear that this girl who had drilled the tip of the bull's horns would go to Fang Runiang for trouble.
I heard that the two are still cousins!
In case Ru Niang rejects him because of this, then he will be sad.
Zhou Xiumei saw that Lu Baowen didn't speak, and the suspicion in her heart became more and more affirmative, and she raised her voice: "Is it Fang Runiang?!" Isn't she?! ”
Lu Baowen frowned, and his voice was genuine: "Miss Zhou, go back, I don't have anything to do with you when I tell anyone." ”
"No, it's impossible, her words don't count......" Seeing that Lu Baowen didn't answer positively and avoided the question, Zhou Xiumei shook her head in disbelief, wanting to scold something, but stopped abruptly.
She suddenly remembered that Fang Runiang didn't seem to have said anything......
She had been begging them all the time......
Zhou Xiumei covered her face and ran out of Lu's house crying.
Lu Baowen and his mother rubbed her waist and walked over, and glanced at the direction where Zhou Xiumei ran away with some concern: "Son, why did you provoke such a girl?" ”
Lu Baowen said helplessly: "Mother, I provoked it." I didn't know her very well, I didn't say a word, and I didn't understand why she suddenly ran crazy. ”
In fact, it's not just this Zhou Xiumei, he feels inexplicable to many little girls in the village.
…… Lu Baowen still doesn't understand that later generations call this kind of behavior star chasing.
Fangjia Village.
Aunt Fang Liu and Uncle Fang Liu were working in the yard while discussing Fang Runiang's dowry, and in recent days, thanks to the convenience of Han Niang's plum blossom soap, she took a lot of money just to share the dividends, which was enough to buy a good dowry for Fang Runiang.
Fang Hanniang is also rare to be lazy, she was dragged by Fang Runiang to try on clothes, the tender green background is embroidered with pale yellow daisies, the stitches are fine, the cut is reasonable, and it fits and looks good when worn on Fang Hanniang.
Fang Hanniang was so beautiful in her heart that she stretched out her arms and turned around, letting Fang Runiang look at her armpits and waist, Fang Runniang nodded, showing a relieved smile: "Fortunately, it fits well, and there is no need to change it." I just wear it in spring and autumn. You're just growing your body, so I'll give you some measurements, and you'll just have to figure it out when you're done. ”
Fang Hanniang hugged Fang Runiang and didn't let go, she also knew how to order a female worker, she knew how troublesome it was to make a dress, and she couldn't stop throwing it at Fang Runiang.
Fang Zhiniang, who had been watching from the side, clapped her hands and said, "Sister Ru Niang's hands are so skillful, and the clothes she makes are so beautiful." ”
Fang Runiang smiled, picked up another piece of clothing in the embroidery basket, and shook it towards Fang Zhiniang: "Zhiniang, you also have it, I can make it for you in a few days." ”
Fang Zhiniang was surprised and delighted, and Fang Minghuai, who was playing games with Xiao Minghe on the side, also raised his head with great interest: "Sister Ru Niang, do you have mine?" ”
Fang Runiang touched Xiao Minghuai's head and said softly: "This material is not suitable for boys, when I finish making this for your second sister, I will pull some more fabrics and make a small gown for you and Brother He." ”
Fang Minghuai and Fang Minghe were very happy when they heard that there were new clothes, and they asked loudly: "I want to have a pocket in the front, the kind of ...... that can hold sugar."
The atmosphere in the house was lively, and the door outside the courtyard was knocked, accompanied by the shouting of Sister-in-law Zhou: "Little sister, open the door." ”
Aunt Fang Liu, who was purifying caustic soda in the yard, was startled, and hurriedly took off her gauntlets to open the door.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Sister-in-law Zhou asking them with an anxious face: "Has Xiumei been here?" ”
Aunt Fang was confused: "No, I've been at home today, and I haven't seen Xiumei coming." ”
Sister-in-law Zhou was so anxious: "The child had a fight with her father today, and she ran out, it's past noon, and I haven't seen her go back, and I don't know where to go." We were all scattered around looking around, and we saw that it was almost dark, and there was no news. ”
Fang Hanniang, who came out to take a look at the situation, thought about it and said, "Have you gone to Lu's house to have a look?" ”
"The Lu family?" Sister-in-law Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then came back to her senses, "You mean Lu Baowen's family?" ”
Fang Hanniang nodded.
Generally, when a little girl is wronged, she either runs to a good friend or to the person she likes.
"This child, this child ......" Sister-in-law Zhou was stunned, she didn't know what to say, and she sighed for a while, "This is also too bold." ”
Aunt Fang Liu's expression was very complicated, and she looked at Sister-in-law Zhou for a long time, not knowing how to speak. Fang Hanniang simply relied on the fact that she was a child, tilted her head unscrupulously and said innocently: "Auntie, my sister Ru Niang is going to discuss marriage with the Lu family in the next few days, and she is also a relative of the Lu family, and Sister Xiumei has nothing in the past." ”
"Marriage is going to be discussed?" Sister-in-law Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then her face was full of joy, "It's settled?" That's a good guy. ”
Aunt Fang Liu smiled bitterly and nodded: "I still have to wait for the two families to sit down and talk about it, but Xiumei is ......."
Sister-in-law Zhou stopped Aunt Fang's words: "Sister, don't worry about this." You don't know, the day before yesterday you just left, in the afternoon the second family found a matchmaker to go to Twenty Lipu Village, and praised the beauty of the sky and the earth, my mother listened nearby, and was embarrassed to think that it was the daughter of our old Zhou family. ”
Aunt Fang's face turned a little pale.
Sister-in-law Zhou sighed and patted Aunt Fang's hand: "How else can I say that it is a good family?" People say that they plan to marry your daughter, and they don't think about other people's families. As a result, the matchmaker opened his mouth and said, your family is not willing to discuss this family. The young man from the old Lu family was stunned when he heard this, but just like that, he still didn't let go......
"Then the young man from the Lu family came here in person yesterday," Aunt Fang Liu had mixed feelings, and her perception of Lu Baowen went up to another level, "I said that I came to propose marriage, I have to ask my mother why she is not willing to ......" Aunt Fang Liu told Sister-in-law Zhou what the two had encountered at the temple fair before, and Sister-in-law Zhou was also full of emotion when she heard it, and took Aunt Fang Liu's hand and said, "How else can it be said that fate is destined?" …… Hey, if this thing is done, my mother will be relieved at that time. Don't talk about it, I'll go to the Lu family to have a look, this, this beauty is too nonsense. ”
"Hey, okay, I'll also go out to find Xiumei, this girl's family, she doesn't go home at night, which makes people panic." Aunt Fang Liu said as she untied her apron and was about to go out with Sister-in-law Zhou.
As a result, before the door came out, they saw that their shoes were full of mud, and Zhou Xiumei, who had walked on many mountain roads, stumbled towards them.
Sister-in-law Zhou was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly went up to pick up Zhou Xiumei: "Xiumei, where have you been, the family is worried about you." ”
Zhou Xiumei was so tired that she couldn't speak, and Aunt Fang Liu saw it and hurriedly carried her into the house with Sister-in-law Zhou.
Fang Runiang was collecting needles for Fang Zhiniang's skirt, and when she saw Zhou Xiumei being brought in, she was also startled, so she hurriedly poured some warm water and stuffed the bowl into Zhou Xiumei's hand.
Zhou Xiumei grunted and drank it all, and Fang Runiang hurriedly poured another bowl.
After drinking three bowls in a row, Zhou Xiumei gave up, leaned crookedly on the kang, and her face slowly became rosy.
Sister-in-law Zhou was worried and scared for a long time, and looked Zhou Xiumei up and down for a long time, and saw that she didn't look like she had suffered any crime except that she was tired, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and said with blame: "Xiumei, you are running, I don't know how much the family is worried about you." ”
Zhou Xiumei bit her lip, reluctantly stood up, and was about to kneel down for Fang Runiang, so shocked that Sister-in-law Zhou and Aunt Fang Liu pulled Zhou Xiumei up one by one: "You girl, what are you doing?" ”
"That's right, a few small ones are watching from the side, let's not do this, just say it if you have something to say." Aunt Fang Liu glanced at Zhiniang Minghuai Minghe, who was staring curiously at the side, coughed lightly, and reminded.
Zhou Xiumei was held on the left and right, she couldn't go up and down, she had a bubble of tears, and she suddenly held it in her eyes, looking a little embarrassed.
