Si Ni was moving a small bench, sitting in the yard to help peel peanuts, and when she saw Yun Xiu coming out, she snorted, covered her mouth and smiled like a little mouse.

"Third sister, you look like you have two big peaches on your head, and you are smart."

Yun Xiu smiled bitterly, the peach is sweet, she is bitter.

After lunch, Widow Feng from the village came slowly.

Widow Feng married into the Liu family at the entrance of the village in her early years, and less than a year later, after the death of the Liu family's man, she remarried Feng Laohan, who opened an inn in the west of the village.

Feng Laohan is thirty years older than Widow Feng, an old husband and a young wife, and his life is smooth.

When Widow Feng was twenty-two years old, Old Man Feng also died.

There are many relatives in the village, and Widow Feng did not remarry in order to keep the inn and the money left to her by Feng Laohan.

But without a man, the purchase and sale of goods ushered in the delivery, Widow Feng was too busy to win alone, and the inn naturally couldn't be opened.

Widow Feng is a powerful person, the day after Feng Laohan's funeral, she was dressed in white and white and filial piety, and the inn was changed to a teahouse, selling some tea, melon seeds, and peanuts every day.

By the way, a table was set up at the door, and a booth was made for the blind old man and his daughter who were singing a little song at the head of the bridge.

ushered in the send-off, and the business was also booming.

In addition to opening a teahouse, Widow Feng is also a well-known matchmaker in the town, she has a sharp mouth and lively eyes, but no one thinks she is a widow.

People in several nearby villages love to ask her to help match matchmakers.

Widow Feng should be a matchmaker, but as for who to say, Yun Xiu is not sure.

The eldest sister and the second sister have also reached the marriageable age, and it is natural for the father and the second mother to find someone to match them together.

"Mrs. Feng is here." Even if it is not clear to the eyes, Widow Feng and Erniang have been handkerchiefs since childhood, and Yun Xiu has to say hello honestly.

"Yunxiu, mourning." Widow Feng patted Yunxiu's back, comforted her, and entered the hall.

Widow Feng is different from other matchmakers, she does not have the festivity of wearing red and willow green. A long skirt with blue and blue is on the top of her feet, looking very delicate.

But unlike the style of, Widow Feng is a serious person, even if she is married and widowed for the second time, no one in the village dares to make fun of her teahouse.

In the first few days of the new opening of her teahouse, the village set up a stage to sing a big opera, and the evening was very lively, people from the nearby village and town came, and the brother-in-law of the former county lord was drunk, reached out to touch her face, and was dragged into the room by her kind words.

Before the hour arrived, the crying father and the mother ran out, and the clothes were well dressed, but the people and demons were stunned.

I didn't care about the shoes when I ran away, and I didn't look back and went into the house, and I didn't dare to go out again for three or four months.

Everyone didn't know what happened that night, but since then, no one dared to be the slightest bit lighthearted in front of Widow Feng, even if Widow Feng looked like a weak woman who was gentle and gentle even when she was panting.

Yun Xiu fetched water to wash her face, tiptoed to the kitchen to find some food, and was pleasantly surprised to find that there was food left in the stove.

"Erniang specially explained, saying that you cried all night yesterday, and you must get up late this morning, and let you keep it in the pot."

Erni looked surprised at her, and kindly explained that early in the morning, Ernie came to the kitchen for the first time and told her to leave food for the third child.

Yun Xiu felt uncomfortable, and her favorite rice on weekdays lost her appetite, so she hurriedly took two bites and put down her chopsticks.

The second sister was cleaning up in the kitchen, and she saw that in the basin in the courtyard, there were the clothes that her father changed yesterday, and she carried two buckets of water, and sat down to wash the clothes out.

The cloud carpenter's family lived halfway up the mountain, and there were no neighbors around, except for the occasional chirping of birds on the mountain, which was quiet.

Yun Xiu faintly heard the conversation between Erniang and Widow Feng in the house.

"Yun Niang, complain about me one more word. Although Master Huang gave a lot of dowry, when your belly comes out in the future, Yunxiu can also help his younger brothers and sisters. ”

He also said, "However, he is more than fifty years old, and he is more than ten years older than Yun Xiu's father, Yun Xiu married in the past, this day is ......."

"I'm her mother, I said whoever she marries, she has to marry whomever she wants......" This time it was Erniang who spoke, and her tone was firm and unquestionable.

Yun Xiu had mixed feelings in her heart, and she couldn't say how uncomfortable she was, I don't know if it was because she bumped into Li Xiucai's unbearable yesterday, or because she heard the bad news about Li Xiucai's family.

But in the end, it is the dead who are greater.

She is the wife of the Li family, Li Xiucai died last night, and they all got the real estate title deed, so they are busy finding her a home today?

Is it to choose an old man in his fifties to die another prospective son-in-law, so as to wait for someone else's inheritance?

Yunxiu dropped off her clothes, picked up the rattan in the corner, broke into the door, and pointed at Erniang's nose to scold.

"Have you grown a human heart! Even if I wasn't born to you, I had called your mother for so many years, and you just got the Li family's real estate title deed, and you want to push me into the fire pit?

There is such a vicious person as you in this world! God has no eyes, why didn't the thunder chop you to death! ……”

Yun Xiu was angry, she had never thought in her life that she could meet such a brazen person after eight lifetimes of mold.

"Who are you talking to? You're fat, aren't you? This home can't accommodate you? If your wings are stiff and you can't stay still, you can roll yourself! ”

Erniang stood up with a big belly and scolded angrily.

Her home? Good! Good! Good!

turned around and ran into the house, and found more than 30 copper plates she had saved under the bed, and Yun Xiu rushed out of the house without looking back.

"Yun Niang, sit down first, don't startle the child in your belly." Widow Feng got up and patted Erniang on the back.

Looking out of the gate again, Yun Xiu had already run out and disappeared, her brows furrowed, "Yun Xiu, this girl, did you misunderstand?" ”

Erniang held the corner of her eyebrows with her hand, and rubbed it for a while before she came to her senses, "The white-eyed wolf of the family!" I shouldn't have any sympathy for her! They're all wolf cubs! ”

"When I came back to her, I talked to her and explained it clearly, and she knew that you were good for her." Widow Feng comforted Erniang and said.

Widow Feng and Erniang are from the same village, and she knows everything about Erniang.

When Erniang was young, there was a young man who fell in love with each other, a crooked neck who worked as a coolie in the rich man's house, although he was poor, but he had a good heart.

Erniang's father disliked the crooked neck and the poor family and disagreed with their affairs.

Later, the crooked neck had an accident and was smashed and broken, and when he died, he really became a crooked neck.

Crooked Neck has no relatives, or Erniang secretly took out her own body money, and begged Widow Feng, who was already married, to find someone to bury Crooked Neck.

Although Erniang and Crooked Neck are not married, there are still rumors in the village that Erniang has killed Crooked Neck.

The mouth of the old lady in the countryside is like the wind, blowing wherever she goes.

After eighteen or nineteen, no one dared to go to Erniang's house to propose marriage, and the girl in the village who was as big as her had already led one or two children back to her parents' house.

Later, it was Yun Xiu's aunt who came to mention her, and because of the rumor, Erniang and her father confiscated Yun Carpenter's dowry.

Widow Feng knew in her heart that she was afraid that Yun Xiu would follow her old path.

The crooked neck didn't even decide on the kiss at the beginning, and some people said that Yun Xiu, the fiancé who was married, was killed, and maybe it was going to be passed on.

Although Master Huang is a little older, he has no children and no daughters, and there are no concubines in the family, and he is also famous for his kindness.

Yun Xiu married in the past, she won't endure hardship, women, why isn't it a family. It's a pity that Yun Xiu didn't listen to all of what she said and misunderstood.

Hey, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.

————

Yunxiu ran all the way out of the house, and when she arrived at the entrance of the village, she found that she had nowhere to go.

There are several roads, but Yunxiu's feet don't know where to go.

There is a small stone under the paulownia tree at the entrance of the village, Yunxiu kicks the small stone, walks around in place, the paulownia flower is like a small trumpet, and it falls on the ground as soon as the wind blows, and it is soft to step on.

"Xiu'er, why are you here?"

Hearing someone shouting her name, Yun Xiu raised her head, it was her aunt who led her cousin Huzi to stand there.

"Ouch, my dear baby!" My aunt took Yunxiu's hand and held it in her hand, and her heart and heart kept screaming.

Although on weekdays, Yunxiu feels that her aunt is very hypocritical, and she likes to take advantage of small advantages, which is not very pleasing.

But at this moment she was lonely and helpless, and she was happy to have a relative who was kind to her.

"I just heard from Mrs. Sun that your second mother is going to marry you to Master Huang in the town, and Master Huang is the one who buries his eyebrows."

pursed his lips and said, "I really don't hit her stomach and crawl out of her stomach to push her into the fire pit!" Thinking that Li Xiucai had died for a day before it arrived, she was not afraid that Li Xiucai would come to her door in the middle of the night to find her! ”

Her aunt was indignant for her, and Yun Xiu felt uncomfortable when she heard it, and she also burst into tears.

"Third sister, why don't you go to my house first. Anyway, you want to get angry when you go home, and if you make a move, your uncle may not help you. Huzi proposed.

My aunt also nodded and agreed: "Yes, Xiu'er, let's go to my aunt's house for two days first, and then talk about hiding for a while." If they can't find you, then Master Huang's marriage will naturally fall to someone else. ”

Yunxiu had nowhere to go, and someone was willing to take her in at this time, so she could only nod her head.

My aunt's house is a two-room east and west house, and there is no hall house, but there is a small kitchen in the southwest corner, which is convenient for cooking.

At night, Yunxiu lived in the east house with her aunt, and Huzi slept in the west house with his father.

There was a fuss during the day, and she drank two more sips of water at night, and after lying down for a while, she was going to get up at night.

When I got up, I found that my aunt, who was sleeping on the side, was gone, and I reached out and touched it, but the quilt was still hot.

Yun Xiu said in her heart, Xu had just gone out to get up at night.

didn't think much about it, kicked his shoes, and cautiously walked out in the dark reflecting the moonlight.

The toilet is outside the courtyard gate, which is inconvenient at night, so a toilet is placed behind the gable of my aunt's house and used it at night.

When she finished her convenience, she felt the wall and was about to go back to sleep, when she faintly heard a whispering sound coming from the Westinghouse.

Didn't you recruit a thief?

Thinking that Li Xiucai lost his life because of the robbers who broke into the house in the middle of the night, Yun Xiu didn't dare to move, and quietly pricked up her ears so that she could hear what they were talking about.

"Mother, is the third sister asleep?" Listening to the voice, the man who spoke was a tiger.

She couldn't help but wonder, he didn't sleep in the middle of the night, why did he care if he was asleep or not?

"Asleep, dead. I pushed her before I went out, but she didn't respond. Son, don't worry, as long as your third sister becomes your person tonight, it will be your daughter-in-law who has not run away. Besides, even if her second mother is a powerful person, but I am your uncle's own sister, can he accept my bride price? ”

I heard my uncle's voice again, "Go back and ask your uncle to make you a new set of furniture, our tiger is also a person with a daughter-in-law!" ”

"That is, go back to your uncle and give us good wood for our family, and then go back and paint the walls of this West House, which is your new house."

The voice of the woman who spoke was exactly the same as the voice of holding her hand at the entrance of the village and shouting for her baby.

It makes people feel hypocritical and disgusting.

Yun Xiu felt that her hands were shaking, her legs were numb, hundreds of thousands of small insects were crawling up from the soles of her feet little by little, she couldn't walk anymore, but she had to go.

If you don't leave, you will have to be in this wolf's den for the rest of your life.
