Chapter 956: Gently Held (Second Shift)
At the beginning of the chapter, > Dasun followed behind.
Here, Sun Shi saw Yang Ruoqing's ignorant look, so he explained to her in a low voice.
"Your uncle is from Caojia Village behind Sunjia Village, and they have seven brothers, and the eighth is a daughter."
"Your uncle's name is Cao Laoer, his sister is nameless, everyone calls her eighth sister."
Hearing Sun's words, Yang Ruoqing understood.
If it's Cao Bamei, it's really Dajie Xiaojie's aunt.
Soon, the eldest aunt came in with a young girl with a face.
Yang Ruoqing's curious gaze fell on the girl's body.
At a glance, the girl was very thin, and her height was only one meter and five and a little nodding.
Dressed in a crumpled old cloth shirt and trousers, his shoulders, elbows, and knees were patched.
The hair was dark, but a little greasy.
Combed a pinch above his forehead, and then tied a thick and long braid underneath.
The twist braid hangs around the neck from the shoulders to the chest.
The chest bulged a little.
Since she was led into the house by her aunt, she has been hanging her head, timidly, not daring to look at people, and holding the hem of her clothes tightly with one hand.
How old is this Cao Bamei?
Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but be curious.
Over there, the eldest aunt smiled and said to Cao Bamei: "Eighth sister, don't be afraid, this house is full of your own family, you look up and see it, you can recognize it!" ”
When Cao Bamei heard this, she slowly raised her head, glanced at the people in front of her quickly, and quickly lowered her eyes.
He took a step back, but a shy red appeared on his face.
Over there, Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Sun both walked over with a smile.
Mrs. Sun lovingly took Cao Bamei's hand and patted it gently: "Eighth Sister or Xiaojie was born in the same year, and she came to Sunjiagou with your mother, right?" ”
"Tsk, I was only seven or eight years old at that time, and after six years, I have grown into a big girl!"
Six years?
Yang Ruoqing quickly calculated Cao Bamei's age in her heart.
Isn't that thirteen or fourteen years old?
It's about the same as himself, and it's estimated that even if he's older, he's a year older at most.
However, this height does not match the actual age.
I'm almost half a head shorter than her.
Looking at the size of her uncle again, Yang Ruoqing understood that in addition to nutrition, there are also genetic factors in it.
Over there, under the cordial greetings of Mrs. Sun, the eldest grandson and the Sun family, Cao Bamei's nervousness and embarrassment finally improved.
Sun pulled Yang Ruoqing over again and let her and Cao Bamei get to know each other.
Yang Ruoqing looked at the girl in front of her, with thick eyebrows, double eyelids and big eyes.
The face is round, but because it is very thin, it appears that the cheekbones are a little high, the complexion is a little dull, and there is a black mole under the right eye.
Particularly conspicuous.
After the two girls looked at each other, Yang Ruoqing smiled at Cao Bamei in a friendly manner.
Cao Bamei also smiled timidly, her eyes were full of envy and inferiority.
The eldest grandson took Cao Bamei to the stove room for dinner.
Here, the Sun family also returned to their own yard.
At daylight, the eldest Sun came to chat with the Sun family, and it happened that Yang Ruoqing was also in the Sun family's house.
The eldest Sun family talked to the Sun family about Cao Bamei, and Yang Ruoqing happened to hear it clearly on the side.
"Your brother-in-law and his mother died last month, didn't your brother-in-law and I take the time to go back to Caojia Village to mourn?" Dasun said.
"Your brother-in-law has seven brothers, three of them came out to recruit relatives to be sons-in-law, the other four are in the village, two have become families, and two are still beating old bachelors."
"Before the old lady left, she had been dependent on this eighth sister, and it was also the eighth sister who served the old lady to the end."
"The old lady is gone, and the four brothers in the family don't care if she lives or dies."
"The other two brothers who went out to recruit relatives don't care, the eighth sister has no choice, so she came to find your brother-in-law." Dasun said.
Yang Ruoqing understood.
Cao Bamei originally came to seek refuge with her uncle and aunt.
At the table, Sun's eyes turned red after listening.
"The eighth sister's life is too bitter, she has no father or mother, her brothers don't care about her, and a girl is pitiful." Sun said.
Da Sun said: "Isn't it! ”
Sun asked again: "Then what should I do now?" Sister, what are you and your brother-in-law going to do? ”
Da Sun sighed: "What else can I do?" You don't know what kind of person your brother-in-law is. The most fraternal of all. ”
"Eighth Sister is coming to join now, so we naturally want to accept her." Dasun said.
Sun nodded: "Sister, you and your brother-in-law are kind-hearted, and good people have good rewards." ”
……
At night, Yang Ruoqing's family came to the old house for dinner.
Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, just in time for Lao Yangtou's 60th birthday.
All the people in the five rooms of Lao Yang's family came back for dinner, gave their own gifts for Lao Han, and gathered together.
The old couple followed the big house this month, and the Jin family's cooking level was limited, so the Jin family came over and asked the Sun family to help.
Two tables of food were placed in the hall with a patio in the front yard.
One table for men and one table for women.
In the dining hall, the lanterns and candles brought by Yang Huazhong were lit.
The dining hall is brightly lit.
A round moon hangs in the blue sky.
The moonlight, just above the patio, sprinkled into the unblocked patio water below.
There is also a kind of sparkling aesthetic feeling.
When the banquet was about to start, Lao Yang Tou was surrounded by Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming and came over from the backyard.
The old man changed into the new clothes prepared by Sanfang, and wore the new shoes prepared by Sanfang on his feet.
The dry tobacco pole in his hand was prepared by the fourth room.
The brand-new dirty clothes inside are made by Bao Suyun in the fifth room.
The old man was full of red light, in a good mood, and was supported by Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming to sit on a chair with a backrest in the main seat.
The chair was draped with a large red flower and a shawl embroidered with the word "Shou".
This cover was embroidered by Wang Shuzi's mother herself, and it was in time for the old Yang's birthday, so that Yang Huamei and Wang Shuzi could be sent over as birthday gifts.
After Old Yang Tou sat down, Yang Huaan, who was the eldest brother of the long house, stood up.
He cleared his throat and began to make an opening statement.
Regarding Yang Huaan's opening remarks, Yang Ruoqing was not interested in listening to them.
She and Luo Fengtang stood at the back of the crowd.
Luo Fengtang also came today, as a quasi-grandson-in-law, to participate in Lao Yangtou's birthday ceremony.
Two men stood in the most inconspicuous corner at the back of the crowd.
Yang Ruoqing tilted her head and hoped in her heart that Yang Huaan's nonsense would end soon, so that she could enter the next birthday greeting process.
Her hand hanging at her side suddenly warmed.
Then, it was gently held by someone.
The room was full of people, and two people were hiding in the corner, their fingers interlocked.
She looked up at him and saw his handsome silhouette.
The eyebrows are raised, the eyes are deep, the nose is high, and the lips are gently pursed.
He stood there, tall and straight, his gaze cast to the Lord's seat directly in front of him.
Seems to listen attentively and with a serious face. End of chapter - >
