Fang Gang's head seemed to have been bombarded by firecrackers for the second time, his hands and invisible ones were trembling, he was very happy, Ah Xiu could feel it.

"Aunt Axiu...... No, it's Ah Xiu, did you promise me? ”

Only God knows how much effort Ah Xiu is willing to spend on this decision, she smiled at Fang Gang and nodded heavily: "I think, since you have spent so much determination and strength to fight in order to marry me, love is a matter of two people, if I am a shrinking turtle and don't work hard, wouldn't I be too sorry for you?" I am willing to marry you, as long as you don't dislike my origin, I am willing. ”

Fang Gang has never disliked her background, and even thinks that Ah Xiu, who can support a family of three, is very good, ordinary people will not be able to do things like her, Fang Gang feels that she is such a good person, and he has missed it.

Fang Gang wanted to hug her, but because of his honest personality, where did he dare to make a move, he looked at Ah Xiu shyly, his eyes were full of joy.

Ah Xiu looked at him, he only felt happy, thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and hugged him with open arms.

Ah Xiu's hug was only for a short moment, and the moment she hugged him, she let go of her hand and took a step back.

Fang Gang's head was bombarded by firecrackers for the third time today, and this time it was far more violent than the previous two times, which made him dizzy, like a fool

Ah Xiu pursed her lips and laughed, and told him calmly: "I'm also very happy, I'll tell my mother about this when I go home later, after all, marriage is not a trivial matter, although our family is in charge of me, but this kind of thing still has to be nodded by my mother." ”

Hearing her say that she was leaving, Fang Gang suddenly felt like he was splashed with a bucket of cold water, and he suddenly came to his senses.

"Ah Xiu, wait, I have a gift for you!"

The last time Fang Gang said this, he gave Ah Xiu a flower that bloomed just right, and Ah Xiu thought that he would also give himself a flower this time, so he looked at him expectantly.

Fang Gang was holding a small porcelain vase in his hand from the beginning, it seemed to be a very valuable thing, he carefully grasped it, and handed the small porcelain vase to Ah Xiu.

From the outside, Ah Xiuke couldn't tell what was inside the small porcelain bottle, so he showed a puzzled look on his face: "What is this?" ”

"This is the perfume I asked for from my sister, and I kept it for you."

This word is really unheard of, Ah Xiu is also a girl's family, naturally knows about her daughter's makeup, she knows about incense powder and spices, but perfume has never been heard of: "What is perfume, how come I have never heard of it." ”

"This perfume is developed by my little sister herself, it is said that the use is the same as the joke, but the fragrance is far better than the spice powder, she told me that girls generally like such things, I estimate that today's proposal must give you something as a token of love, so I asked her for a bottle to give to you, I hope you will like it."

It's hard to imagine that a person like Fang Gang would ask for something from others with a dead face, Ah Xiu imagined that kind of scene, only felt funny, and said to Fang Gang word by word: "As long as it's something you give me, I like it." ”

The two of them said two or three more meaty words, said goodbye, and Ah Xiu held the small porcelain vase that Fang Gang gave him, and walked back to his stall with a smile on his eyebrows.

Ah Xiu held the small porcelain vase and came back with a smile in her eyes, all of which fell into Granny He's eyes, that is the girl who grew up under her nose when she was a child, and she loved her as a granddaughter, where would she not understand her thoughts: "The young man from the Fang family told me his intention when he came over, I see that you are like now, probably the matter is done." ”

Where did Ah Xiu dare to raise her eyes to look at Granny He's expression, and nodded shyly: "I have promised him, now I want to go home early and discuss it with my mother, after all, although I make the decision about the affairs of the family, my mother never cares about things, but marriage is a big matter, and I have to discuss it with her after all." ”

Granny He and Ah Xiu are in the same village, the two families are not far apart, she knows what kind of temper Ah Xiu's adoptive mother is, and glared: "Your family has been spoiled for many years, so I know that I am oppressing you, you have to pay attention to this matter, you don't need to discuss it with her, just inform her, you have been raising her for so many years, your affairs, where does she have the right to speak?" ”

Ah Xiu smiled wryly: "I understand what my mother-in-law said, but after all, I have to discuss it, she has been good to me before, I think I will understand my current mood." ”

She said so, and Granny He had no reason to say more, sighed, and held her hand with her old and rough hand: "Girl, you have always been a person with ideas, now that you have made up your mind and promised others, you must never regret it, your future days are your own business, and your adoptive mother has nothing to do with it, you must remember that your life is your own life, what others say, just follow them." ”

Ah Xiu nodded heavily, this matter, just when she made up her mind to tell Fang Gang that she was willing, she had already thought it out.

When Ah Xiu went home in the past, it was close to evening, she rarely went home early, and rarely carried snacks and pastries home, after all, life is not easy, and she can make do with frugality, where is she willing to give up that money.

When she went out, because her adoptive mother was not in good health, everything at home was taken care of by her younger brother, and he had been looking forward to Ah Xiu's return for a long time, and now he saw Ah Xiu still carrying his favorite pastries in his hand when he came back, and he became more and more happy.

Ah Xiu handed him all the pastries in his hand and asked him to play by himself.

Because of the fine weather, the adoptive mother asked her son to move out a chair, sit in the courtyard and bask in the sun, and when she saw Ah Xiu, her face was in stark contrast to the sunny weather: "Why did you come back so early today, is it because of bad business, or is it because of some other reason?" ”

The adoptive mother's face was gloomy and gloomy, like the sky preparing to rain in summer, the clouds were thick, and Ah Xiu was worried, and replied frankly: "Mother, I am a little unwell today, so I went home early to rest, and the business is not very good today, thinking about setting up a stall outside to sell things, it is better to go home and do some work." ”

The adoptive mother's face softened slightly: "Since you are not feeling well, let's go and rest for a while, sleep for a while, and I will wake you up when it is time to eat, don't be too tired." ”

Ah Xiu agreed, but did not return to the room for a long time, and the adoptive mother could see her hesitation from her expression, frowning slightly and wondering: "Why don't you leave, with such an expression, do you have something you want to tell me?" ”

"Mother, I do have something to talk about." Ah Xiu lowered her face, not daring to look at her adoptive mother's expression, she recounted softly, "I am not young this year, girls who are about the same age as me, and now they are even married and have children, let me ask my mother, what are your considerations for my marriage?" ”

She paused, then continued, "Someone proposed to me today, and I promised him. ”

The adoptive mother was stunned when she heard this, and her originally relaxed expression was even more gloomy, she had a bowl of tea in her hand, grabbed it and threw it to the ground, and for a while the water splashed everywhere, wetting Ah Xiu's skirt.

Ah Xiu was taken aback: "Mother, what are you?" ”

"I disagree!" The adoptive mother glared at her, her eyes seemed to be burning, her body had always been sick and weak, and she usually had to take two breaths even when she said a word, but now this negative sentence was actually shouted out.

"As long as I'm alive, you don't want to get married! I will never agree, if you want to marry, unless I die! ”

As the adoptive mother spoke, her voice was so hard that she coughed violently, and her face turned red, as if she was going to die in the next second.

Ah Xiu is a kind girl, seeing this, she was not angry that her adoptive mother yelled at herself, and hurriedly stepped forward to pat her on the back to give her relief, and when her adoptive mother took a breath, she said cautiously: "Mother, when he proposed to me, he had already helped me think of a plan, he said, after I got married, he would not ignore you and his brother, and after a while, he would take you together and live, and he would not let you live here." ”

Who wouldn't say nice words, adoptive mother doesn't believe it, who would want to raise two more oil bottles at home, Ah Xiu got married, she and her son must have only a dead end, the more she thought about it, the more scared she felt: "You are not allowed to marry, you can't marry until I die, when I am still alive, don't even think about it." ”

Ah Xiu listened to her words, and only felt that when she went home, Granny He's advice was really not wrong, and she could see it clearly.

"I have decided to marry him, what kind of person I am, you have always understood it, even if I marry, I will not ignore you and my brother, my mother just rest assured."

The adoptive mother's eyes widened, looking at Ah Xiu as if she was looking at a stranger, where did Ah Xiu disobey her for so many years?

"Do you have to marry him?"

Ah Xiu smiled and nodded, turned around and walked to the kitchen: "It's already dinner, my mother is not in good health, so I don't need to cook, I'll just come." ”

The adoptive mother looked at her fading figure, and suddenly felt as if she had never recognized her.

Ah Xiu's younger brother is called Zhou Ming, and when Ah Xiu came back, he gave him pastries for him to play by himself, but he has always been sensible, where will he go far, and the words that his mother yelled at when she was angry all fell in his ears.

Ah Xiu turned around and went into the kitchen, he walked to his mother's side, took her cold hand and asked: "I heard my aunt say that girls are going to marry when they grow up, don't embarrass your sister, I will support my mother in the future." ”

Lin gently patted his young son's head, with tears in his eyes: "You are still a child, what nonsense, raise me, how can you afford it." ”

The immature child doesn't understand the twists and turns of thoughts and relationships between adults at all, his eyes are bright and his thoughts are pure: "I don't want to see my mother and sister quarrel, mother, you can promise my sister, my sister is a very good person." ”

It is precisely because Ah Xiu is a very good person that the Lin family will be angry at her and threaten her: "If she gets married, how can our mother and son live." ”

Because of the matter between Fang Gang and Ah Xiu, both parties have agreed, Zhao Xiuqin is ready to invite a matchmaker to Ah Xiu's house to talk about it, in order to make the matchmaker work harder, she specially bought good wine and meat from the market, and prepared to cook a good meal to entertain her, Fang Tian, who had nothing to do, was arrested by Zhao Xiuqin and asked her to help pick vegetables.

"I heard that the adoptive mother in Ah Xiu's family is a very difficult woman to deal with, not to mention the meanness, and often loses her temper with other girls, and if something goes wrong, she yells at Ah Xiu loudly, and the voice is so loud that the neighbors can hear it clearly. She didn't want to think about her poor health, the child was still young, the man died, and now the person who raised their whole family was Ah Xiu, she was embarrassed to be angry at her, she just didn't know what to do! ”
