Luoluo brought breakfast over, it was two plates of dumplings and a few light side dishes, the two of them hurriedly ate on the small table, and they wanted to go out after eating, Wu Kan's family, Yun Buxian's family arrived, this room has not finished with these two families to say New Year's greetings, Yang Zhuzi and his wife brought their grandson and also came over, Qu Xiaobai took a red envelope, stuffed it into the child's hand, and said: "Good, it's time to go to school, right?" Wait for Kaichun'er to follow to the school, study hard, and grow up to be a productive person. ”

The little grandson of the pillar family bowed deeply and obediently: "Thank you, auntie, my father said, when I study, I will also be a capable person like my uncle and aunt." ”

"Ambitious. Well, go and play with your brother Meng. ”

Meng Yan was teasing the toffee in the yard, even when he was having fun, he was holding a book in his hand and reading it, Qu Xiaobai saw it, he was angry and funny, but there were many people and he couldn't say anything, so he had to skip it and didn't care.

Not long after, Yang Chun and his parents also came, Yang Chun wore a light-colored robe today, looking warm as jade, slim as bamboo, Yang Chun's parents are very typical peasant old men and old ladies, dressed very plainly, their faces are carved with traces of wind and frost, but they are cleaned up neatly, and they speak kindly.

Yang Ling stepped forward to pay a visit, and introduced each other again, to Wu Kan's family, Wu Jin bowed with a bow, "I've seen Uncle Yang, I've seen Aunt Yang." ”

She is very dignified and handsome, and today she wore a silver-red embroidered brocade moire skirt, covered with a big red cloak with rabbit fur, lined with graceful and lovely, Mother Yang praised: "Oh, this girl looks more handsome than the painting." ”

"Aunt Yang, my name is Wu Jin."

Mother Yang stepped forward to take Wu Jin's hand and praised vigorously: "Mrs. Wu, how did you teach the child, so well-behaved and sensible, and so handsome." ”

Mrs. Wu Kan smiled: "Where, the eldest sister is too complimentary, my family is the only seedling, she has been spoiled since she was a child, like a wild boy." It's your family's Chun'er, I envy it when I look at it, she is polite and erudite, and she looks so good. ”

Yang Zhuzi's family said: "I see that Chun'er and Jin'er are a match made in heaven, the two stand together, but they are really talented and beautiful." ”

Wu Jin hung his head shyly and muttered in a low voice: "Auntie......"

"Hey, look at my mouth, there's no one to speak, Miss Jin'er, don't blame my aunt for not being able to speak."

Yang Zhuzi said: "You mother-in-law, are you addicted to being a matchmaker?" We haven't finished eating that pig yet. ”

Everyone in Zhuangzi knew what was going on with the pig, but Wu Kan's wife, Jin'er and Yang Chun, who had just come back, didn't know, Qu Xiaobai explained: "My aunt is the matchmaker of my brother and my sister-in-law, let's not thank the matchmaker here for sending the pig's head, in order to thank the aunt's great kindness, Yang Ling asked people to send a pig to the aunt's family." ”

Yang Chun glanced at Yang Ling: This is all right? This is like Qu Xiaobai's style, Yang Ling...... Yang Chun felt that he was a backbiter.

Yang Chun even felt that what Yang Zhuzi's family said today was also instructed by Qu Xiaobai.

It's hard for her hard work. It's just that...... Yang Chun couldn't help but glance at Wu Jin.

The little girl was slim and generous, so many people joked, but she just blushed and didn't make any gestures, seeing Yang Chun looking at her, she blessed Yang Chun, "Brother Yang." ”

Yang Chun nodded politely: "Miss Jin'er." ”

It's just such a good girl, and she has nothing to do with him. Who let him meet another woman first?

Yang Chun saw that everyone was talking about the excitement, so he walked to the porch and watched Meng Yan and Yang Wen teasing the toffee together.

Just as I was looking at it, there was suddenly another person next to me. But it's Yang Ling.

Yang Chun glanced at him, then looked at the toffee, and said, "You are the host, can you leave the guests behind?" ”

Yang Ling smiled faintly, "Xiaobai is more suitable to chat with them, and I can't talk to them together." Yang Chun," Yang Ling was also looking at the toffee, "Since you came last night, why didn't you say hello and leave?" ”

"You see?" Yang Chun smiled self-deprecatingly, "My parents and I don't have any common language, after sacrificing to my ancestors, I came out for a walk, and before I knew it, I came here, and when I met you setting off fireworks, I stopped and looked." Seeing that you were having a good time, I didn't bother. ”

Yang Ling said: "You don't have to be so polite in the future, since she regards you as a brother, you are her right-hand man, you are your own family, and your own family is not so particular." ”

He turned his head to look at Yang Chun and said very sincerely: "Yang Chun, you don't have to be bitter about yourself anymore, if you are bitter, she will not feel good in her heart." ”

Yang Chun was stunned for a moment, "She knows everything?" ”

Yang Ling took a deep breath and spit it out gently, "She's not a fool, do you think you can hide it from her?" ”

Yang Chun didn't expect Yang Ling to be so direct, and he was a little overwhelmed at first, but he quickly calmed down, lowered his head, and said, "I'm sorry." ”

"There's nothing to be sorry about. You and I are both men, and I understand how you feel. If I were you, I might not be able to help it. It's just that, Yang Chun, I came to her earlier than you, I love her more than you, I need her more than you, Yang Chun, I seriously beg you, don't trouble her. I hope that in this life, she can live happily and healthily without troubles and disasters. ”

Yang Chun looked back at him: "Then how is she doing now?" ”

"At least she's alive and well."

Yang Chun pursed the corners of his mouth. In fact, he knew early on that it was impossible for him and Qu Xiaobai. Standing under the dead tree last night, watching her shrink in Yang Ling's arms, the moment the fireworks dimmed, Yang Ling kissed her, the whole world was surrounded by darkness, but that place was so warm that it was like being under the midsummer sun.

He doesn't know what he is still insisting on, he can restrain his hands and feet, but how can his heart restrain it?

Yang Chun took a deep breath, "I understand." Don't worry, I won't bother you. He glanced into the room and said, "However, I don't want her to get me any kind of matching, so as not to hurt other girls." ”

Yang Ling said: "That's not what she did. That girl, like you, was a tendon, and she persuaded her, but ...... You also know that feelings are not something that can be changed at will. ”

Yang Chun's eyes darkened slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "Okay, I know." ”

Yang Ling said: "Miss Wu Jin is a good girl, don't hurt others." ”

After Yang Ling finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the house, leaving Yang Chun alone to ponder on the porch for a long time.

It was almost noon, and there were several waves of people, everyone said goodbye and went home, Qu Xiaobai also changed his clothes, got into the car with Yang Ling, and pulled a cart of gifts in the back and went to Qu Xiaohei's house.

Qu Xiaohei's family was already standing at the gate waiting, and when the carriage arrived at the door, Yang Hongxia stepped forward to support Qu Xiaobai and said, "But here, I've been waiting all morning." ”

"There are a lot of people in the family, and I haven't been able to get out for a while, sister-in-law, why are you still standing in the wind and waiting? We're not outsiders, so let's just wait in the house. That, boy, get in the back car and move things. Qu Xiaobai pointed to the two little guys of Qu Xiaohei's family and said.

The two servants were busy moving things in the car behind. Qu Dongzi looked behind him with his eyes blank, and saw that they were all boxes one after another, and he didn't know what was inside, so his curiosity was even heavier.

Yang Ling got out of the car and arched his hand very solemnly: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother, sister-in-law, you have a good New Year." ”

Qu Dongzi came back to his senses at this time, and responded a little timidly: "Oh, son-in-law has a good New Year." ”

Qu Xiaohei smiled innocently: "Brother-in-law has a good New Year." Let's get inside. ”

Qu Xiaobai took Qu Li's hand at the door and walked home. Qu Li wore new clothes, looking at the craftsmanship, she knew that it was made by Yang Hongxia, her cheap father Qu Dongzi was also wearing a new cotton robe, the old couple had a lot less awkwardness on their faces, and finally there was more kindness, Qu Xiaobai shook her cheap father's hand by the way, and said: "Dad, mother, happy New Year." Have you prepared a red envelope for me? Did you give all the red envelopes to my brother and my sister-in-law? ”

Qu Dongzi wanted to stalk his neck a little, but in the end he retracted his neck again, and only said bluntly: "Our family is used to being poor, how can there be such rules?" ”

"The rule is that the dead are alive, I don't care, I want a red envelope. If you don't give red envelopes, you won't support your old age. ”

Yang Ling walked in front and glanced back at Qu Xiaobai helplessly. Her coquettish skills are really invincible.

Qu Dongzi didn't escape this coquettish feat, he took out a dime of silver from his coat pocket and stuffed it to Qu Xiaobai: "Ah, here you go." Your brother and your sister-in-law also didn't get red envelopes, and you were the first one in these years. ”

"Now that your life is better, shouldn't you make up for what you owe our brothers and sisters all these years? No, I want to ask for a red envelope for my brother and sister-in-law, if they can't be honest, you can bully him. ”

Qu Dongzi huffed: "I still have a lot of debt." ”

"My brother and I can pay your debt for you. Otherwise, how many lifetimes will it take you to earn enough money for that kind of work? ”

Qu Dongzi is wrong, he wants to cheat, and he is afraid that his daughter will really leave him alone, if he is really taken away by the people in the gambling house, how can he still live?

After figuring it out in his mind, he took out another dime of silver and handed it to Yang Hongxia beside him: "Yao, yours." ”

Yang Hongxia held back a smile at the corner of her mouth, and took the silver with both hands, "Thank you, Dad." ”

As he spoke, he had already walked into the house, and everyone sat down around the charcoal stove in the house, Qu Xiaobai took a handful of Qu Dongzi's beard stubble, and said: "That's right, you have to be a father, and those of us who are children can fulfill our responsibilities as children." You, giving birth to a pair of capable children, is a blessing you cultivated in your previous life, you must know how to cherish it, and the blessing will not slip away. ”

"I ...... Why don't I know how to cherish it? ”

"You, you are an example that the whole Zhuangzi people are staring at, you are diligent, the people on the Zhuangzi will be diligent with you, if you are lazy, the people on the Zhuangzi will also be lazy, they don't work hard, we will have a bad harvest, the harvest is not good, what will you pay off your debts, what will you take to honor you and my mother?"

Qu Dongzi was a little confused by her, but soon woke up, "Do you mean that I am lazy?" ”
