Chapter 9: Red Scarf in the Snow

Erxi came for the first time, and as soon as the words came out, he suddenly felt reckless.

The little monk took the incense in his hand, planted it in front of the table, and then bent down to wait on the side of the big red pillar.

"Donor, please speak."

"I had a dream in which the subject of the present place was being chased and killed by a wicked woman and snatching a large pomegranate. We fled, and halfway through the road we met a group of men who were ill-intentioned towards her, one of whom was handsome, and gave her a bouquet of flowers, and my current partner was actually smiling at him. At this juncture, the sky threw down the chains.

When I woke up from this nightmare, I was worried, I was afraid of what would be predicted, and I was even more afraid that something would go wrong if the marriage didn't work out. ”

At this moment, Erxi wiped his tears and choked a little.

"I'm in my forties, I've just made a partner, I can't make a mistake, otherwise my life will be over, at this age, I can't afford to lose...... Woooooooo ”

The old monk kept his eyes closed, unhurriedly twisting the Buddha beads, and the incense mist around him was always around, and he muttered for a moment before his voice was like a flood.

"Pomegranates represent many children and grandchildren, which is a good omen. If you are robbed by a woman, your children and grandchildren will be coveted and may be lost. Being chased by many men shows that she is a peerless beauty, and the handsome man behind her indicates that she is destined to have an unforgettable numerology peach blossom in the future.

But remember that you must treat her sincerely and kindly after marriage, otherwise such a huge peach blossom atmosphere will not be broken. Not only that, but she will also be imprisoned for it. ”

After speaking, the sound of endless chanting wafted in the air.

What the? And jail time? Erxi shrank his neck in fright, and his brain was ethereal and speechless. No matter what, it's good to be able to get married and pass on the ancestry, and the rest can't be controlled at present. Besides, it is said that the blind fortune-telling is blocked at both ends, and the monk's fortune-telling is similar. I'm here, but I'm not so scared now.

"Oh my 5 yuan," he began to beat his chest again, feeling distressed about the incense money.

"Donor, please." The little monk led the way.

Erxi walked along the blue brick path, dizzy from the smoke, and the sound of chanting could not be erased in his mind, like thousands of horses galloping through his heart.

One foot deep and one foot shallow, staggering out of the temple door.

When he turned his head, he saw that Mengyao had maintained his past posture and did not move, and he was still wearing the oil-stained Lei Feng hat, holding all the paper bags in his arms. He pulled up the well-behaved and obedient Mengyao, picked up the paper bag, and ran back to the construction site with a cigarette.

Enter the construction site.

The carpenter's daughter-in-law was cooking everyone's dinner, and her eyes were full of envy when she saw Mengyao's big bag. The words of praise made Mengyao's heart extremely sweet and quickly melted.

"If you are looking for a husband, you have to look for this." The carpenter's daughter-in-law looked at the hand polish in her hand, or the packaging of the mussel shell, and continued to affirm with envy, "Let me tell you, when I got married, your eldest brother never bought me this, including now." Hey, my life is so miserable. ”

Meng Yao's face turned red when he heard this, but his heart warmed up with happiness even more, so he continued to help with dinner, washing vegetables, washing rice, peeling potatoes, and busy in the kitchen.

Erxi finds the loach, and the loach is working.

"You kid is heavy on sex and light on friends, and you still have a face, you are so happy that you don't invite me to eat meat dishes." The loach looked at Erxi with a hippie smile.

"You kid, I want to ask you, when will your cousin get engaged to me?"

"Huh? Our engagement cost 6,000. After saying that, the loach was embarrassed to touch the top of his head, the unkempt hair.

"No problem, I'm prepared."

"Our hometown is not marrying or not, whether it is marrying or engaged, let's avoid the New Year." The loaches were still embarrassed.

"Okay, then what time do you say? Engagement on April 1st and May Day marriage, do you fancy it? The reason why Loach said this was because before coming to the construction site, Mengyao's parents had explained some conditions to him, so he could give Erxi a word.

And one thing he can't reveal is that Mengyao's eldest brother and the daughter of the village party secretary have an engagement to give in a hurry. They are waiting for the rice to be put into the pot when they get married at the latest, and if they don't get engaged to the girl, the village party secretary will confiscate his family's own land.

On the grounds of the black history of the past few years, she can always send her family to hell, and the five miles of Sanli Village are all from the villagers, and this crime is unaffordable, and the reputation is really stinky and can't live.

"Oh, it's March, and we're going to be engaged next month? But it's so far, what can you do? ”

"In this way, you take the money, and then move Mengyao's household registration, and his family doesn't mind if you two don't eat the noodles, get the certificate first."

Erxi listened to Loach's words, felt that he was surprisingly real, and was grateful in his heart, "Come in the evening, and your cousin, let's eat together." ”

"Okay, let's work together."

The sound of clanging sounds, wearing hard hats, threw themselves into intense labor again. Every minute and every second, Erxi is grinning. From tonight onwards, Erxi is in charge of the loach and Mengyao's food, and he is so happy that he is willing to be slaughtered and never tired of it.

These days, Mengyao continued to work at the carpenter's daughter-in-law, and was very happy to be a foreman, and also paid her dozens of yuan in wages. Mengyao is in logistics, and he is even busier.

Every day, the three of them eat together, and after dinner, they have to lead Mengyao to see the stars, and finally send her back to the women's studio to build a shed.

On this day, it was almost the beginning of the first month, and suddenly the sky was very overcast, and in broad daylight, there were snowflakes. It's spring, why is it still snowing? And it's almost the first month, which is really a long time to see.

At night, the snow had already accumulated on the road, and the whole land was covered in snow. Although it is not as imposing as the first Spring Festival, it will not be inferior, and the construction site is already full of deep foot sockets.

After the meal, the snow actually stopped slowly.

"Still looking at the stars?" Erxi asked.

"Are there any stars?"

"Forehead ......"

"Why don't we have a snowball fight?" He's changed again.

"Huh?"

"Don't forget to call the carpenter's sister-in-law and the loach."

As a result, a five-member snowball fight team has been successfully assembled.

Today's Mengyao tied a red gauze scarf, the originally newly bought square scarf, was folded into a wide hairband, strangled the broken hair scattered on the forehead, and the thick and smooth ponytail behind it, thick and scattered on the shoulders, looked even more energetic, the top of the head was red, and he was happy.

The loach was the most unlucky, and the teams on both sides threw the snow at him violently. Like a little monkey, he dodged and jumped, trying to dodge. Fortunately, the unkempt hair is thick, and the black neck sleeve around the neck can also resist.

With the snow residue on their necks and hair, everyone shouted and laughed in the air, carried away, and ran and jumped in the snow like children. In the end, they got acquainted with each other, and as a result, they didn't separate the gang.

They all tried to throw snow balls at close range.

Only Erxi is eccentric, and he protects Mengyao like a shadow. However, she was also hit in the shoulder by a surprise snow ball from the loach...... Haha, the sneak attack was successful.

"Ahh Meng Yao pretended to scream.

The two were taken aback, picked up several heavy snow balls and threw them at the loaches to take revenge. The loach laughed silly as he ran, and continued to turn his head to attack Erxi, with a few superfluous ones in his hand, and did not forget to rush out and throw them at the thin carpenter.

"Ahh

The carpenter also screamed, and fell out on a diagonal basis, and fell to the ground not honestly, and pretended to cry out and feign pain. His series of performance art came so quickly that it made everyone laugh. In the end, the fat body of the carpenter's daughter-in-law also smashed on the carpenter, and tears flowed out of laughter.

Meng Yao stood aside, covering his mouth shyly and playfully, laughing at the funny cuteness of these two.

She stood there with her eyes dark, like midnight; The skin is better than the snow, and the red lips are delicate. The snow around her covered her white face with a layer of warmth.

People say that snow is not cold, and snow is cold.

But at this time, Mengyao was already sweating and red.

Her red scarf, lined with snow, is dazzling and eye-catching, like a red cloud floating, like a fire burning. The red, black, pink and white around the body are so clear and easy to identify, especially the peach blossoms on the sideburns, which are extremely pretty...... Whoever sees it will take the initiative to look at it for a while, her beauty that does not belong to the mortal world.

Laughing enough and making enough trouble, Meng Yao secretly looked at the night sky.

The night sky after the snow is clearer and purified, whether it is the Milky Way or the Beidou, it is like a delicate and transparent jewel that has been carefully rubbed, shining brightly, the crescent moon is like a hook, and the stars are dotted, setting off the inky night dome.

"It's too late, let's go back, we'll be busy tomorrow." The carpenter's daughter-in-law greeted everyone.

The five of them retreated, and the ground was littered with countless strings of snow marks. After all, it was warm, and two days later, there was no trace of snow.

In the blink of an eye, this is the last day of March, but there is still the 31st. The night before, the three of them made an appointment to take a long-distance bus at five o'clock on April 1 early in the morning and departed at Zhao Gongkou.

In the car.

The three of them sat together, staring out the window, and there was a dizzying glow of warm golden light outside, and the glass windows were glowing with daylight, and there seemed to be a flicker of light and shadow......

When they got up early, they fell asleep again.

Erxi touched his arms, a bundle of wages advanced in advance from Daxi, and made sure that the hard ones were still there, so he leaned his head against Meng Yao, hugged the hard goods and tilted his head to sleep, and Meng Yao also fell on his shoulder.

Hours passed, and the old coach was still jolting, and the glass was still dirty, so there was no view or signage outside. I don't know how long it took, and the three of them were a little hungry, so they all woke up.

"It should be almost there, right?" Erxi asked the loach.

"Almost."

Sure enough, after more than an hour, after passing through countless villages and villages, I arrived at Yaojia Village. Advanced loach's home, Erxi entered the house and took out the prepared half a catty of fruit candy and put it in the tea tray, and the loach's parents were sincerely afraid to pour tea for the distinguished guests.

"Why don't we go to Mengyao's house first? If not, just have lunch at her house? Loach proposed.

Erxi looked up and saw that it was already 1 o'clock, so he followed the loach and went straight to Mengyao's home.

"Loach, you kid have to help me a little, I'm also the first time a big girl has been on a sedan chair!" He leaned in the loach's ear, praying for shelter.

"No problem, Brother Kiko, wrap it up on me."

The three of them talked, and soon came to Mengyao's door. Mengyao went to slam on the door, and after a while, there was movement, and the person who came was a boy.

"Sister, you're back!"

"Er Niuzi, is our mother at home?"

"Yes, I'll shout."

Erniuzi, who has a dark complexion and a tiger's head, looks up and sees a stranger, turns around and runs away after being shy.

"Mom, someone's coming! That's a lot of people! In the courtyard, Erniu shouted while running.

Mengyao's mother was making shoes on the kang, and when she heard the shouts of the children outside the house, she hurriedly raised her head and looked out of the window, but she couldn't see anything through a layer of window paper, so she hurriedly moved down from the kang, quickly put on her shoes, and walked outside.

The loach walked in front, followed by Erxi and Mengyao.
