Chapter 30: The Legend Returns
Sheng Anning was stunned for a few seconds, he didn't expect to meet the rumored ex-girlfriend so soon.
The woman that everyone thinks Zhou Shixun should marry looks really good.
Zhou Shixun moved in: "Let's sit down and eat first." ”
Sheng Anning sat down next to Zhou Shixun, not ignoring the flickering loss on Luo Caixia's face, but he didn't say much.
After Luo Caixia waited for Sheng Anning to sit down, she looked at Zhou Shixun: "At that time, I heard that you were married, and I thought about what kind of daughter-in-law you would find, but I didn't expect it to be so good-looking, Ah Xun, you are blessed." ”
Zhou Shixun didn't squeak, poured a bowl of tea and pushed it to Sheng Anning.
Luo Caixia also understood Zhou Shixun's character, and said to Sheng Anning: "You didn't come back to hold a banquet when you got married, do you want to hold a banquet when you come back this time?" ”
Without waiting for Sheng Anning to speak, Zhou Shixun spoke first: "No, we have other things." ”
Luo Caixia seemed a little disappointed: "Why don't you hold a banquet?" Everyone in the village knows that you are married, and you haven't drunk the wedding wine yet. I opened a tailor shop in the county seat, and I thought that if you got married, I could make clothes for you, and it would be ready in two or three days. ”
Sheng Anning was a little puzzled, if Luo Caixia liked Zhou Shixun, how could she bear to watch the person she liked marry someone else and make him a wedding dress.
Until the noodles came up, Zhou Shixun didn't say much, but Luo Caixia said a lot of things in the village.
What cattle herder died of wind and cold the year before last.
The teacher who taught them to write was already going back to the city, but he was poisoned by soot.
There is also a small Akita and Haruya from the next village who got married.
Sheng Anning didn't know anyone, so she could only bow her head and eat noodles quietly, listening to the gossip that Luo Caixia was talking about, thinking that she and Zhou Shixun had a lot of memories of life, and the noodles in her mouth were sour.
After eating noodles, Sheng Anning felt that he was a little redundant, said to Zhou Shixun, and left the restaurant first.
Not long after, Zhou Shixun and Luo Caixia also came out, but Luo Caixia's eyes were red, she glanced at Sheng Anning, turned around and left in a hurry.
Sheng Anning saw that Zhou Shixun's face had not changed, and he was very curious, what did the two say, Luo Caixia was still crying and going back?
The two went to the station again to take the train, this time it was very fast, more than half an hour to the town, and then they had to walk back to Hewan Village.
It was already dark, there were no street lights in the town, and it was even darker when walking towards Hewan Village.
Sheng Anning looked at the shadowy mountain peaks in the distance, and the call of owls from time to time, and was a little stunned: "How long will it take to walk to the village?" ”
Zhou Shixun silently calculated: "To climb over the two mountain beams, we will walk slowly, about two hours." ”
Sheng Anning was stunned: "So far? Don't you usually come out? ”
"A lot of people haven't been to town."
Zhou Shixun picked up Sheng Anning's bag as he spoke: "Let's go." ”
Sheng Anning hurriedly grabbed the bag: "I'll take it myself, you have injuries." ”
Zhou Shixun didn't follow her this time: "It's okay, the mountain road is not easy to walk, you follow closely." ”
An hour later, Sheng Anning felt that his legs were no longer his own, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and he had to drag Zhou Shixun's sleeve to walk.
When I couldn't hold on anymore, I finally saw a little light at the foot of the mountain.
Hewan Village is very poor, dependent on the weather for food, and many families cannot even afford electricity, and still use kerosene lamps.
The Zhou family was reluctant to use electricity, and they also lit kerosene lamps at night.
Zhu Guihua brought back the news that Zhou Shixun was going home, and the whole family had not slept well in the past few days, for fear that the secrets they were hiding would not be able to hide from Zhou Shixun.
When the time comes, what should Zhou Shixun do if he is angry and does not send money home.
Hearing the sound of the gate, Zhou Guihua was stunned for a moment, and pushed her youngest son Zhou Changyun on the side of the kang: "I heard the door ring, you can see if your second brother is back." ”
Zhou Changyun was a little unhappy: "He will come back when he comes back, and see how scared you all are." ”
The old man Zhou Mancang, who was leaning on the quilt, coughed and scolded a few times: "Let you go, you will go, what nonsense are you talking about!" ”
Zhou Changyun got up reluctantly, and before he could go out, the door of the house was pushed open, and Zhou Shixun walked in with Sheng Anning.
In the black rumbling, Sheng Anning couldn't see what was going on outside, and when he entered the house, under the kerosene lamp like beans, he saw a room of people, and he was stunned for a moment.
Inside the house is a large kang, which occupies half of the house.
There was an old man half-lying in the kang, looking very honest with a wrinkled face.
Zhu Guihua sat at the kang table, still holding the soles of her shoes.
On the other side sat a young woman, looking at them with raised eyebrows, and next to him sat a man in his thirties, who looked very similar to the old man, and was a little honest.
And there was a young man standing on the ground, very similar to Zhu Guihua, with slender eyes and some shrewdness.
Sheng Anning looked around, and there was only one conclusion in his heart, that is, these people were not like Zhou Shixun at all, and it was impossible to tell from their appearance that they were still related by blood.
Zhu Guihua was stunned for a moment, her mother jumped off the kang and put on her shoes in a panic: "Second brother, why did you come back suddenly?" I still think that you will have to wait for two days, you are so seriously injured, why don't you take two more days. ”
Zhou Mancang also sat up straight, and looked at Zhou Shixun with a smile: "That's it, why didn't you come back with a word and let your eldest brother take a donkey cart to pick you up." ”
After some greetings, Sheng Anning knew that the old man was Zhou Shixun's father Zhou Mancang, the man sitting by the kang was Zhou Shixun's eldest brother Zhou Changlin, and the younger brother Zhou Changyun was standing on the ground.
And the woman sitting on the other side was Zhou Changyun's daughter-in-law Chen Qiaolan.
Zhu Guihua enthusiastically asked Sheng Anning and Zhou Shixun to sit down on the side of the kang: "Hurry up and sit on the kang, haven't you eaten yet?" There are still two eggs at home, and I'm going to make you some egg tea. “
Zhou Shixun stopped: "No need, we have eaten in the town." ”
Zhu Guihua was a little distressed: "You said that you guys are still eating in the town after you have arrived at the door, that is not spending money blindly." ”
Zhou Changyun stood aside, his eyes swept Sheng Anning from time to time, and listened to Zhu Guihua and Tuesday Ni come back and say that the second brother married a daughter-in-law who was very beautiful.
Now that I look at it, it's really beautiful, the skin is more bone china-like, and there is no blemish in the whiteness.
and that temperament, which he can't describe.
I was a little jealous in my heart, Zhou Lao Er was so blessed, Luo Caixia, the most beautiful woman in the village, was good with him, and now she can marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law.
Zhou Changlin looked honest, and his questions were much more honest: "It's okay all the way, I heard my mother say that you were injured, is it serious?" Do you want to ask the village cow doctor to come and have a look? ”
Zhou Shixun has a good attitude towards this big brother: "It's okay, it's almost good, so I won't trouble people at such a late hour." ”
Zhou Mancang coughed a few times: "It's good to come back, your mother cleaned up the house two days ago, the bedding is all newly dismantled and washed, you go to rest first, and talk about it tomorrow." ”
Zhu Guihua also smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, I'll talk about it tomorrow, An Ning, I see that your bag is quite heavy, I'll carry it for you." ”
