Chapter 74: The Ancient Peasant Girl 24
The matter of dividing the pears in Ewha Village lasted until nearly evening.
Meng Changjin also carried the basket to share her own share, not much, that is, three large pears and a small one.
But even if it was only four pears, she didn't want to be cheaper than the old ladies.
Old lady Yu and the others will subconsciously feel a chill in their backs when they see Meng Changjin now, because when they see Meng Changjin, they will think of all kinds of strange-shaped demons and monsters.
Does this keep them from sending chills down their backs?
Meng Changjin didn't deliberately scare the family, but they were timid and scared themselves, so Meng Changjin didn't mind.
Realizing that it was just a short time coming, Yu Jiaojiao and Liu Zhi had already begun to look at each other from time to time, and then Yu Jiaojiao lowered her head shyly, Meng Changjin felt that she didn't need to make a move, and it was estimated that she would be able to get the result she wanted in a few days.
Tsk, there is a saying that you can still live if you do evil in heaven, but you can't live if you do evil in yourself.
Yu Jiaojiao wants to die, that is, others can't stop it.
Meng Changjin walked home slowly with a basket of pears, deciding that he must not relax his eyes on Yu Jiaojiao in the past few days.
Whether she can close the net before the year depends on whether Yu Jiaojiao is bold enough now.
……
In the thatched hut at the head of the village, Yu Jiaojiao, who came back with Mrs. Yu, Yu Li, and Yu Liu, didn't eat pears, and went back to the room directly.
Mrs. Yu only thought that Yu Jiaojiao was tired, and did not bother her, and instructed her daughter-in-law to stew a pear for Yu Jiaojiao.
Yu Jiaojiao in the room sat on the edge of the bed, her cheeks crimson.
She felt that if she really wanted to talk about it, Liu Zhi and a bunch of mud legs were simply different from the mud.
Especially the other party is still a scholar, I heard that the family is also a wealthy businessman, and the son of a wealthy businessman in this dynasty can also take the imperial examination.
Isn't this exactly the ideal candidate for her husband?
The more Yu Jiaojiao thought about it, the more crimson her cheeks became, she raised her hand and cooled her face with the back of her hand with a slightly lower body temperature, and heard the voice of the third aunt outside.
"Jiaojiao, your grandmother asked me to stew pears for you, do you want to eat them while they are hot or cold?" Yu Liu's voice came into the room through the leaky door.
Yu Jiaojiao made a move to cool down her face, and suddenly felt as if her throat was blocked by something, so that she couldn't say a word for a long time.
After the third aunt asked a few more times outside, Yu Jiaojiao bit her lower lip and said, "I know, I'll eat it when it's cold for a while, the third aunt has worked hard." ”
"Okay, then I'll give you a cold." Yu Liu responded.
Listening to the footsteps that were gradually moving away, Yu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth, and became more and more eager to stay away from here.
She's had enough of these days.
Whether it's a loud aunt or a leaky house.
Putting down the hand that cooled her face, Yu Jiaojiao lowered her eyes and thought about it, and suddenly thought about it.
……
Because he has been busy keeping an eye on Yu Jiaojiao recently, Meng Changjin doesn't have time to make any complicated food, so he basically stews it casually and it's over.
In fact, Meng Changjin's requirements for things are really not high, she can eat it if it is particularly delicious, and she can eat it even if it is not delicious.
Anyway, in the end, it's just a filling.
Holding a pear as an after-dinner fruit, Meng Changjin nibbled while taking advantage of the fact that it was not completely dark and walked towards the entrance of the village.
Every family at this point is eating, and no one will pay attention to her movements.
Even if they noticed, they wouldn't have thought that she was stalking Yu Jiaojiao.
Skillfully climbing the big tree at the entrance of the village, Meng Changjin looked at the thatched house at the head of the village through the gap between the branches and leaves.
Seeing that all the oil lamps in the thatched house were extinguished, everyone in the Yu family should have been asleep, so Meng Changjin came down from the tree and walked to the end of the village in the night.
……
The next day, after Meng Changjin finished breakfast, he continued to keep an eye on Yu Jiaojiao.
Far away, Meng Changjin was surprised to find that Yu Jiaojiao was not waiting in the room today to open her mouth and stretch out her hand, and she also hugged a wooden basin, looking at the direction of walking, she was actually going to the river.
Meng Changjin felt incredible at first, but then after thinking about it, he suddenly figured it out.
The widow's house in Ewha Village was close to the river, and Liu Zhi and the widow's son were classmates, so they naturally lived there when they came to Ewha Village.
Yu Jiaojiao, this is already ready to plan.
Since Yu Jiaojiao went to the river, Meng Changjin also turned to that side with a turn of footsteps.
Finding a relatively hidden position with a good viewing angle, Meng Changjin was ready to see what Yu Jiaojiao would do.
Speaking of which, Yu Jiaojiao should have just turned fourteen years old last month, does this have to say that the ancients were precocious?
No, Meng Changjin suddenly remembered that she was already a casual cultivator when she was fourteen years old, and suddenly felt that the ancients were precocious or something, and they were not comprehensive enough.
It can only be said that this age is actually not so naïve, but some people are well protected, and some people have been exposed to too many things, so they naturally understand more.
For example, Yu Jiaojiao, she seems to be well protected by the Yu family, and she doesn't have to do any work, but Mrs. Yu keeps instilling in her that she is a lucky star, and she can marry into a big family to be a young grandmother.
didn't really teach her the rules and manners that she should have if she really wanted to marry into a big family, of course, if Mrs. Yu knew about it, then she would have married into a big family, and she wouldn't point to Yu Jiaojiao.
For everyone in the family, Meng Changjin's evaluation is stupid, poisonous and a little whimsical.
Meng Changjin retracted his divergent thoughts and set his eyes on Yu Jiaojiao by the river.
The other party looked at the women's basin as if he had come to the river to wash clothes, but Meng Changjin only saw Yu Jiaojiao wet her clothes after watching it for a long time, and because the clothes became heavy because of the wet water, she almost didn't pick up the clothes directly.
Everyone in the Yu family does not comment on Jiaojiao's spoiling, and Meng Changjin, who is not a lucky star, does not make an evaluation, but it is a real waste.
Looking at it, Meng Changjin suddenly found that a person had walked into her stalking circle.
Take a closer look, isn't it Liu Zhi?
Meng Changjin didn't know how to complain for a while, is this the so-called like-like attraction?
Anyway, by the time Meng Changjin finished wondering, a man and a woman by the river had already talked.
Because there was an open area by the river, Meng Changjin couldn't get too close, so he couldn't hear what the two were talking about.
I could only see Liu Zhi saying something with a smile on his face, Yu Jiaojiao spoke from time to time, and then bowed her head shyly.
The two talked like this for a while, and Meng Changjin saw Yu Jiaojiao stand up from a squatting position.
I don't know if it's because my legs are numb from squatting, or if my feet are slipping, anyway, I saw that Yu Jiaojiao was about to fall, and then Liu Zhi reached out and grabbed her waist, and the two looked at each other, and the picture was quite beautiful.
