Chapter 67: Night Talk
At night, Sichuan pepper lay on the kang, thinking about what had happened in the past few days and his own situation, and his eyes were red unconsciously.
Obviously, she works so hard, but it seems that she can't change the fact that she is someone's daughter-in-law.
At that time, even if she pays off the Pei family's money, if the Pei family doesn't let her go, she still won't have real freedom......
In the dream, she was chased by the Pei family, and she ran to the edge of the cliff while running, and there was no way back, in a hurry, she simply closed her eyes, and jumped down with a bang, and even she could feel the mountain wind whistling in her ears, and was waiting for the tragic moment when she landed, she was woken up: "It's a nightmare, isn't it, wake up!" ”
Huajiao woke up sweating, by the faint candlelight, until she saw Pei Ze's face clearly, she was relieved, it turned out to be a dream, Pei Ze simply helped her up, poured her a glass of water, and handed it to her: "Are you okay?" ”
Sichuan Pepper shook his head.
I drank all the water in one go, and handed him the empty tea bowl.
Pei Ze put the tea bowl away, turned to his side and took scissors from the kang hole to cut the candle, the candlelight swayed, and the room suddenly brightened up a lot, Pei Ze took off his shoes and went to the kang, sat opposite her, and said softly: "What are you dreaming about?" ”
Hua Jiao wiped the sweat on his face and said truthfully: "I dreamed that you were all chasing me and didn't let me go." ”
"Do you have to go?" Pei Ze asked very seriously.
Hua Jiao nodded: "I don't want to be branded for the rest of my life I was bought by your family, I want to live a life when I can make my own decisions, even if I get married, I also hope that I chose it myself, instead of passively accepting the arrangement of fate, you can rest assured, I will not let you suffer, I will return the dowry silver to you." ”
As soon as she came here, she was his daughter-in-law.
She has been awkward in her heart, but she can't resist others insisting on matching her with Pei Ze, what kind of marriage, round house, she can't imagine how two people with no feelings can sleep together.
"Do you think you will be wronged if you follow me?" Pei Ze sat opposite her with his waist straight, staring at her without blinking, he originally thought that as long as he took the initiative to marry her, she would definitely not refuse, after all, she had been in their family for five years, and she had already acquiesced in her heart to the fact that she was his daughter-in-law, no matter what way she looked at it, she should not refuse him.
He thought the initiative was in his hands, but he found him wrong.
The little girl rejected him plainly...... For the first time in his life, he hit a wall in front of a woman.
"Don't you think I've been wronged?" Huajiao said lightly, "You have seen the attitude of the people in your family towards me, just because I don't have the support of my mother's family, so I am in your family, what is the difference between me and my subordinates?" ”
The previous peppercorns were bullied to death before he came back!
She didn't want to continue the fate of peppercorns.
"You misunderstood, we didn't treat you as a person, you see, if you want to open a store, haven't I been helping you?" Pei Ze looked at the little girl's stubborn face, and felt more and more that the little girl was different from the woman he had seen, and instantly he had an urge to get to the bottom of it, he wanted to know what she had experienced before he came back, since she didn't want to marry him, what would the man she liked be?
Like Su Xian?
He didn't think so, his impression of Su Xian was not good at all, not to mention anything else, if Su Xian really liked peppercorns, then why didn't he take her away quickly, but let her be wronged in his house?
If it was him, he would have taken her away regardless of the consequences.
"If it's really as you said, why don't I have a say in the matter of getting married?" Hua Jiao asked directly, "I can understand that your family is in a hurry to start a family for you, but why don't you ask me what I mean?" Isn't the normal process of marriage to be discussed with the woman? Or is it because I sold it to your family, so your family doesn't have to care about what I think? ”
Perhaps, this is the fate of peppercorns.
But she didn't want to accept it.
Pei Ze couldn't laugh or cry, and said after a while: "Okay, since you really don't want to get married, then leave this matter to me to deal with, but there is one thing you have to remember, this is your home, even if you are no longer my nominal daughter-in-law, I hope you can come back often." ”
Seeing him so happy, Hua Jiao was a little disbelieving: "Really? ”
"The twisted melon is not sweet, why should I force you?" Pei Ze got up and put on his shoes, coughed lightly, "You don't have to worry about this, what should you do, don't worry about it." ”
"Thank you!" Hua Jiao said sincerely, "I knew you were a good person......
The good guy card must be awarded to Pei Sanye!
"It's not easy to be a good person!" Pei Ze stood by the kang and looked at her meaningfully, "Sleep, go early tomorrow, let my cousin watch the shop, you go to the boat to do me a favor, today the new ship will go to the sea to test the water." ”
Sichuan pepper nodded in agreement.
Pei Ze saw that the little girl looked lonely, couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth, reached out and patted her shoulder, turned around and took a candle from the windowsill, and went to sleep on his side, the night in the village was unusually quiet, he heard the sound of shallow and even breathing from the impermeable bed tent, turned over and fell asleep, the little girl could think about it, and fell asleep so quickly.
Early in the morning, the two got up one after another to freshen up.
Wang has always gotten up early and cooked in the stove room, and when he saw that Hua Jiao was about to go out, he pulled her and didn't let her go: "Hua Jiao, today is your birthday, you can't go out, and after today, you have a room with Lao Sanyuan, where do you like to go, I can't care about being a mother-in-law, but you can't go today." ”
"Mother, I really have something to do today, let's come back in the evening for my birthday, okay?" Huajiao looked at Pei Ze vigorously, and discussed with the Wang family very patiently, "I'll buy some food in the town by the way, and I'll come back to cook in the evening, okay?" ”
"It's not good, you have to come forward today to distribute sugar to the people who come to watch the ceremony, and tell everyone that you are ready." Wang grabbed Hua Jiao's arm, and said with a blushing face, "I don't care, you have to be at home today anyway." ”
Only when you are in harmony can you logically have a round with a man.
Otherwise, you will be scolded for being inferior to beasts.
"Third brother......" Hua Jiao Chu pitifully asked Pei Ze for help, Pei Ze came out of the house after washing his face, and walked to his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a frown, "Mother, can't we come back at noon?" You prepare at home first, you can't make a mistake, Sichuan pepper has to go to my boat today to help tie a red rope, it's really impossible to leave, at home, you can take care of it! ”
Wang was stunned.
Huajiao took the opportunity to break free from her hand, and promised again and again: "Don't worry, I promise to come back before noon." ”
"Let's go!" Pei Ze reached out and took her hand and strode out.
Pepper obediently let him hold her hand, and followed him out of the house at a trot.
Wang was helpless, so he had to stand at the gate and shout at the two: "Remember that you must come back at noon." ”
There is no peace of mind at home.
It's the rhythm that her off.
"Got it." Sichuan pepper turned around.
Pei Ze dragged her forward without looking back.
It wasn't until she arrived at the entrance of the village that Pei Ze let go of her hand and said quietly: "Look, my mother still feels very sorry for you." ”
Sichuan pepper: "......"
I thank you, mother!
