Chapter 3 No dowry
The black noodles are indeed gone, and there is not much left, but I ate it last night, and there are three buns left. In the morning boil a pot of boiling water, put a steamed bun, enlarge a handful of wild vegetables. Barely fool around. The remaining two, one for Gui Niang and one for Lan Niang.
Daddy Xin?
If you have the ability to finish the Huo Huo that you eat, you have the ability to keep yourself from starving.
Lan Niang no longer wants to be considerate.
The sun was getting bigger and bigger, and Daddy Xin looked at the ridge several times. There was no waiting for Lan Niang to deliver food. I couldn't stand the hunger.
Before the sun set, he trotted home. Panicked, as if something was happening.
The women at the intersection were collecting the soles of their shoes under the tree, and when they saw Daddy Xin running, they asked Daddy Xin what he was running.
Father Xin paused and explained, "Lan Niang didn't go down with me today. Didn't bring me food either. I don't know if something happened. I'll go back and see. This kid doesn't worry at all! ”
All:......
Looking at the back of Father Xin's departure, the women said one by one.
A fat woman snorted melon seeds and sneered, "You can pull it down!" This is still my father. Do you say that about your daughter? I'm afraid it's not a stepfather. ”
"My stepfather was afraid of being said, so he couldn't do such a thing. Fortunately, we all watched Lan Niang grow up and knew that she was a filial child. Won't say anything. is not sensible, and the gossip says that Lan Niang, who said that his father, is not worrying, and he does not send him food. How can such a child get married! The aunt on the side answered.
The aunts rose up one by one.
"It's already a promise! Lan Niang's father told her that Mo Tieshu was the second child. I heard that I was drunk and coaxed by Mo Tieshu. ”
"Oh! This is really a real father! If it was a stepfather, he would have made a fuss a long time ago, this is not forcing Lan Niang to die. ”
"Who doesn't know that Mo Tieshu's mother-in-law forced her eldest daughter-in-law to die two or three times a year. If it weren't for the hard life, the grass on the grave would be as tall as a man. ”
"I tell you, don't go and tell anyone. I heard that the third child of Mo Tieshu's family was favored by the daughter of the county. Let Mo Saburo get into trouble. People have money, pointing to men and giving birth to boys from the girl's surname. ”
"Really?"
"Really, really, this girl's surname is Huang! Know it! You know which one it is! Mo Saburo fell into the nest of blessings! ”
"No wonder you want Mo Erlang to marry a daughter-in-law. It turned out that Mo Erlang was blocking Mo Sanlang. ”
"Hey, hey.... There's one more thing you don't tell anyone! Last night I saw the widow ......"
The aunts gathered together and muttered, with occasional gasps and occasional exclamations. The expressions are quite rich....
Daddy Xin arrived home, cold pot and cold stove.
Daddy Xin pulled his throat and shouted Lan Niang Gui Niang. I didn't respond when I shouted in my throat.
The widow happened to pass by the door, smiling and greeting. "Lan Niang's father! Lan Niang and Gui Niang dig wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain. When it gets dark, I'll go back. It's good for you to be a father. I haven't seen you for a while, thinking about the girl, it's really a blessing to be your daughter! ”
"Hehe... Your dog is good, it's a boy. When you raise the dog, you will definitely be filial to you. Father Xin said enviously.
Widow Wang smiled and asked, "I heard that Lan Niang has a family." When to go out? How much dowry do you give? ”
"What a dowry. Countrymen, just go out. What else do you want! The Mo family is not easy. A large family, only a little bit of land. There are also two or three who take medicine all year round. I didn't ask for a dowry, I just hope they will treat Lan Niang well in the future."
Father Xin smiled and talked about the "poor" and "difficult" life of Mo Tieshu's family.
