CHAPTER XLIV
On that day, Wang smelled the rooster crowing and hurriedly got dressed to wake up the old man An.
"Old man, wake up, hurry up and finish the rest of the farm work early today, and we can rest."
"Ahem,"
Old man An coughed, and Wang hurriedly poured him a glass of water, which was boiled last night, but after a night of brewing, it was already cold.
"Let's save the money first, I have to say that the matchmaker is early, and let's delay it for two or three years."
Old man An put on his coat tremblingly and muttered a few words.
"That's the reason, then save it first, I'll go steam a few steamed buns, or take them to the field, and eat them when the time comes."
Old man An nodded, picked up the cigarette stick, lit it and smoked, coughed a few times from time to time, smoked for a while, Xu was comfortable, and couldn't help but sit cross-legged on the bed and stretch his brows.
After a while, the cooking smoke was everywhere, and there was a smell of corn steamed buns in the kitchen.
Wang picked up four and packed them in cloth, and when the time came, he and Old Man An had two of them, and they would eat breakfast and lunch together, and when the time came, they would drink some water, which could be regarded as barely full.
also left three for Anderlai, afraid that he would be hungry, so he boiled another egg and put a piece of steamed bread.
The Wang family still loves him very much.
After Wang cleaned up everything, he knocked lightly on the door of Andelai's room.
"Come on, my mother gave you three steamed buns and one egg, remember to eat, the eggs in the basket can be boiled and eaten by yourself, do you know?"
An Delai, who was wrapped in a warm quilt, listened to Wang's voice, frowned in his sleep, and was very impatient, so he couldn't help but turn his back to the direction of the door, pull the quilt, and cover his head tightly.
"Gotta come? Do you hear that? ”
Wang suspected that he hadn't listened carefully, so he couldn't help but give a few more serious instructions.
"It's still over, don't you know if I'm asleep?"
Anderson replied with some anger and impatience under the quilt.
The smile on Wang's face outside the door was embarrassed on his face, and he couldn't help but put down his hand.
"That mother won't disturb your sleep, remember to eat."
"Old man, let's go, go to work in the fields, and make corn buns for you."
As he spoke, he took out a corn steamed bun and put it in Old Man An's hand, looking at the cigarette stick he was holding in his hand, Wang was a little angry.
"I know how to smoke every day, and I can be full of smoking? Look at your cough, it's the smoke that hurts, I'll throw it in the latrine one day and let you smoke it. ”
Old man An ignored her, but obediently put away the cigarette stick, after all, he understood Wang's temper, and he might throw his cigarette stick into the toilet one day.
……
Andelai slept until noon in the morning and didn't wake up, lazily turned over, lifted his eyelids, suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he swept away his confused state.
He hurriedly got up from the bed, hurriedly put on his clothes, and ran into Wang's room, groping and searching, or sticking his head under the bed and staring wide to find something.
After some fumbling and finding nothing, Ander was a little unhappy.
However, he still did not give up, and carefully searched Wang's room, and finally found that there was a secret compartment very close to the foot of the bed.
In fact, it's not even a dark grid, it's just a place where there is a perfect fit and not easy to be noticed.
Andrew lay on the ground, gently moved the small brick out, and then saw a piece of clean flower cloth folded into a boxy shape buried inside.
A trace of excitement and excitement flashed in Andelai's eyes, and he carefully took out the flower cloth with his hand and opened it, and what was wrapped inside was the twenty silver taels that Erya had sold.
Ande looked at the silver on the flower cloth in his hand, and thought of the beauty in his mind, and couldn't help but smile proudly.
He held the two silver ingots in his hand and checked them, wanting to take them all, but after thinking about it carefully, it was better to leave a silver ingot, and take it next time, after all, he was afraid that he would not be able to collect one and spend all twenty taels.
When An Delai stole the money again, he never thought about the feelings of the Wang family and Old Man An, nor did he think that this was the money from selling his sister.
Without any reaction, he took a silver ingot, and wrapped the remaining silver ingot in its place with the cloth.
Then he pretended that none of this had happened, and some couldn't control the joy in his heart and fled from Wang's room.
Andelai walked to the kitchen and saw the steamed eggs in the pot, and wanted to eat them all by two.
But after thinking about it, he picked up a corn bun and the egg at random and hid them in his arms.
Gobbled up two corn steamed buns, although he felt that he could barely stuff his teeth, but now that he wanted to see her soon, he didn't bother to boil the eggs and eat them himself.
Closing the door and avoiding the sight of three or two, Anderson took a shortcut and walked away.
Looking around at no one, Anderlai looked at the window and shouted excitedly to the people inside with irrepressible joy.
"Lian'er, Lian'er, Lian'er......"
The person in the window didn't know what he was thinking, and his expression was slightly distorted.
Andlai's voice interrupted her thoughts.
As soon as she heard this voice, An Bailian knew that it was the dog skin plaster that came to her again.
She felt even more uncomfortable, "It's really a disappointment," she blurted out as she looked at the figure outside the window.
But apparently An Delai was too excited, and the whole person was immersed in a world of selflessness, and he didn't hear An Bailian's disgust for her at all.
An Bailian wiped away the unhappy expression on her face, she knew that she wanted me not to open the window, and it was estimated that he would have to stop in front of her window.
Pushing open the window, revealing a touching smile, An Bailian said gently.
"Is there anything going on with Brother Lai looking for me?"
His sweetheart was like a holy white lotus, standing in front of him and smiling softly, An Delai couldn't help but fall into it, his eyes were straight, and he couldn't help stumbling.
"Lotus, Lotus, Lotus, I'm looking for you, yes, there's a surprise for you."
"What's the surprise?"
"That's it, it's ......"
An Delai couldn't help blushing, and couldn't say a word, but he didn't know that in An Bailian's heart, he looked down on him even more.
If you look closely, Andelai may be able to see a touch of disdain in her gentle smile.
It's just that he's caught up in it, and he thinks she's always good.
Nervously and excitedly, An Delai took out a piece of silver and showed it to An Bailian, and said excitedly.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go to town? I have money, so I can buy you good food, beautiful clothes, and hairpins. ”
Seeing the silver ingot in An Delai's hand, An Bailian finally had a trace of joy in her eyes.
"This guy is also somewhat useful." She thought to herself.
Since he was of some use, he didn't mind being gentle with her.
An Bailian thought like this, and did like this, and the tone of her voice with An Delai couldn't help but soften.
"Brother Derai, this, I do want to go to the town to play, I heard that the town is beautiful, I have been to my grandmother a few times before, and I haven't been there for a long time."
"Just, where did you get your money?"
"This, this, this is given by my mother." Andra lied.
"So, when are we going to go to town?" An Bailian looked at him expectantly.
Andrew smiled and scratched his head, "Then I'll take you whenever you want." ”
"Tomorrow then?"
"Cheng, then go tomorrow!"
Can Pomeranian people be happy, and Ande comes from selling himself completely.
An Bailian got her wish, and couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling.
"Brother Delai, then let's see you tomorrow morning at the big willow tree at the head of the village, you can go back quickly, it's not good for people to see it."
An Bailian pretended to be shy, but in fact, she just wanted to get rid of An Delai quickly.
"Oh, okay, I'll go back, no, wait, I still have something for you."
"What's that?"
An Bailian, who originally wanted to close the window tightly, shook her hands when she heard this.
An Delai took out the corn steamed bun and egg in his arms, put them into An Bailian's hand without saying anything, and also took the opportunity to touch An Bailian's hand.
An Bailian held back her nausea, looked at the steamed bun in her hand, and felt that it was already dirty, An Bailian was a little disgusted, and tried to send An Delai away with a smile.
"Thank you, Brother Delai, then let's see you tomorrow morning, I've closed the window, you can go back too."
Andlai wanted to say a few more words to her, but before the words could be opened in her throat, she closed the window faster.
An Delai was a little unhappy, but when she thought of holding her hand or something tomorrow, the unhappiness in her heart disappeared without a trace.
It's An Bailian, how fast the window is closed, how fast the face changes, and the smile that pretends to come to an abrupt end with the sound of "pop" closing the window.
He looked at the corn steamed bun in his hand, threw it on the ground in disgust, and stepped on the corn steamed bun a few times with his foot to relieve the anger of being eaten tofu just now.
"You're worthy?"
As he spoke, he imagined the corn steamed bun as Andelai, and stepped on it a few times!
But when I thought I could go to town tomorrow, the egg in my hand looked much more pleasing to the eye at this time.
