"Mother, didn't you say that a man with a family is not worthy of being called a man if he comes nonsense again? He and I are engaged to have a family, but he is still with other people, hehe...... "Sister Xiaofu didn't say much, so she went back to the pavilion to spread cotton."

Li Shi knows that his daughter rarely talks to herself, and she can tell that there must be such a thing. I didn't think that the little mallet was such a child, how could he send a good yellow flower girl to him when he was so messy? She hesitated for a long time, almost sleepless all night, and finally found Li Zheng on the second day, went to Feng's house to explain that she had agreed to withdraw from the marriage, and went to Uncle Tie to borrow a tael of silver and pay it back.

Sister Xiaofu didn't agree to repay the money, but Li Shi said: "In this way, we don't owe them anything." ”

"Forget it, it's a big deal

Do more work and return it to Uncle Tie. She patted off her clothes and went out to pick up work again.

Women were not allowed to go to the township to work, so some aunts who were related to the township went to take the work and came back to do it. Their mothers and daughters are also similar, and they are not idle to help others do some needlework, but they can also maintain the family.

Sister Xiaofu came to Aunt Tian's house, she was very familiar with the embroidery piles in the township, and although the work was very difficult, the wages were not bad.

As soon as I knocked on the door, I saw Aunt Tian come out with a small bag, and when I saw her, her eyes changed, and she said, "Isn't this Sister Xiaofu, who came to pick up the work?" ”

Sister Xiaofu said: "Yes, I don't know what work has been done in the past two days?" ”

Aunt Tian still has work in the palm of her hand, and she also loved to hand it over to their mother and daughter before, mainly because their palms are fast and they live out quickly. Only she heard this girl in the morning, of course, also knew that she had crippled the mallet and dismissed the marriage, and she couldn't help but feel that she had some self-seeking, and in the spirit of finding justice for the little mallet, she said: "Yes, yes, but this time the salary is less, a handkerchief and ten copper plates, you can't do it?" ”

Sister Xiaofu frowned and said, "This is too little, all of them were fifteen before." Looking up at Aunt Tian's eyes, she understood that she was obviously disgusted with herself. But at the moment, you can't do it with her in a hurry, so Sister Xiaofu endured it and said, "Yes, there is nothing else to do if the horizontal and vertical are the closest." ”

Aunt Tian didn't invite her into the house, went in by herself, took ten square handkerchiefs, and said, "Don't get dirty, this material is very expensive, and we can't afford it." ”

Sister Xiaofu took it and put it in her arms and said, "I know." "These ten square pavements are a lot, but it's just that it's not a taste to give Aunt Tian a black and five copper in her heart.

She took the square handkerchief home, but as soon as she reached the entrance of the village, she saw a small mallet with a crutch coming out. As soon as the mallet saw her, he took two steps back, trembled his palms, and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

Sister Xiaofu snorted, ignored him and continued to walk forward.

But at this time, the little mallet girl came out with the medicine residue and poured it, and just saw the little mallet and Sister Xiaofu standing together, she was afraid that the girl would hurt the boy with her palm again, so she ran up like crazy, and said loudly: "You stinky girl, if you dare to touch my boy, I will fight with you." As he spoke, he raised his palm and put a pot

The dregs were all splashed on Sister Xiaofu's body.

Sister Xiaofu only felt that the smell of the medicine that she gave to her nose was very unpleasant, she calmly scratched off the medicine residue on her hair, and then said: "Ben still remembered that you were a little thoughtful about our family before, and Xiaohui took care of your face, just from today onwards, everything will be clear, don't blame me for telling some ugly things in the future." ”

The little mallet pointed at her and said, "Tell me, I see what you have to talk about?" ”

The little mallet couldn't make her speak, so she hurriedly grabbed her mother and said, "Mother, let's ignore this kind of woman, go back, I'm tired of standing." ”

Listening to the kid's tiredness, the little mallet mother was heartbroken, she helped him and walked home,

From time to time, he turned around and glanced at Sister Xiaofu a few times.

Sister Xiaofu helplessly shook the dregs on her body, if she went back like this, her mother would definitely think about it, at least cry aggrievedly. She hated to see her mother crying, so she would rather go out and work for a day or as a coolie. Now she sighed earnestly, and decided to go to the mountain river to wash and go back.

Fortunately, the clothes are not dirty, just clean up your hair and wash the smell.

The small river in the mountains is called Quhe, and this village is also called Quhe Village, because all the villagers depend on this river for survival.

It's just that there are wells in the villages, and now it's past the time to plow, so no one goes into the mountains, and no one goes to the river. It was very quiet, mainly because a widow from a neighboring village could not survive and jumped from the hill into the river and drowned.

It's only been seven days since this happened, and I'm afraid there is no one in it now.

She walked over the cornfield to the river, which was very quiet, except for the wind. Sister Xiaofu found a secret place, took off her coat and began to wash her hair.

It was just that her hair was too long and the water was cold, so she shivered and gritted her teeth.

I felt that the long pain was not as good as the short pain, so I took off all my clothes and walked into the water to take a shower. There is not much residue on the body horizontally and vertically, and it dries out of the body quickly.

Sister Xiaofu is afraid that it will be unsafe in the mountains when it gets dark, and it is very remote in the end. She only rushed for a moment, then stood up, holding her hair, and walked towards the shore.

Suddenly, I heard a slight movement around me, as if someone was walking across the cornfield. In a hurry, she thought about rushing ashore to get her clothes, but when she saw that it was too late, a long figure came out of the ground because of the movement of the corn stalks.

Sister Xiaofu subconsciously knelt in the water, protecting her chest backwards. But the following things were too nervous and didn't know what to do, just stared blankly at the visitor, and their brains were blank.

The person who came was a young man, fifteen or sixteen years old, with fair skin, thin eyebrows and narrow eyes, wearing a scarf and a robe, obviously a scholar.

He shook the leaves on his head and raised his eyes, and the whole person couldn't help but be stunned, and all the worship objects in his palms fell to the ground. For a young man who was not married and had never seen any woman's body, what he saw was too shocking.

I saw only a young girl sitting □ in the river, and she was clearly □. Palms of both hands

The looming appearance of her breasts is even more reverie, her complexion is a little pink, and she is already immersed in the river from the lower abdomen down, but the river water is so clear that he can see everything he can see.

I only felt white, bumpy and convex, a burst of ear fever and heartbeat for no reason, and my body was stiff. Fortunately, he quickly turned to the side and stammered, "Xiaosheng...... Xiaosheng is unintentional, you ...... Get up and get dressed, I'll ...... I ...... "I couldn't even explain the following words in a hurry."

Ah, only a few steps forward, the whole person got into the cornfield. But the heart is full of eyes and the white body is still lingering in my mind. He was ruthless, stretched out his palm and slapped himself in the face, and the hot pain finally calmed him down.

Sister Xiaofu's innocent body is the first time to show a man a look, she wants to shout and cry, but she sighs slightly, what's the use of some?

Seeing the silence in the cornfield, I don't know if the scholar is really gone or peeking inside. Just looking at his nervous expression just now, he must be an honest man! If he really did something again, then she would beat him to the point of amnesia.

Thinking about this, she gritted her teeth and stood up, and went out to get dressed, didn't she?

Even so, she was still shocked and scared, she was a girl who had nothing to do. Trembling and dressed, she casually coiled her hair on her head and walked back, walking as fast as if she were running away.

The scholar who looked at the cornfield halfway honestly did not move, and breathed a sigh of relief.

I remember that he seems to be a gentleman from the neighboring village Shanghe Village, surnamed Lin! I've seen them once or twice before, but I have some impressions.

The most important thing is that he is almost the only scholar who teaches in this area, and he is very respected by everyone.

Last year, when Li Shi was not free, she took two copper plates to ask him to write, at that time he was not so tall, and he looked like a child, but he did not expect that he would grow into a teenager in a year.

Fortunately, this matter is for him today, people who read books are naturally more knowledgeable than ordinary people, and if they change to other people, they will not do something!

Sister Xiaofu is also the governor of the matter, it is useless to be noisy now, and the best thing is to stop getting along with the old and dead, and after a few years, they will all forget about it.

"Wait a minute, it's ...... It's Miss Liu, isn't it? Xiaosheng Lin Xiuzhi, tomorrow I will ask the matchmaker to go to your house to hire. Lin Xiushu didn't know when he came out of the cornfield, and he was very far away, and he still had some nervous tones.

Sister Xiaofu didn't dare to look back, for fear that her red face would be shown to the other party. Death looked at a tree in front of him and said, "No need, no one else knows about this, you can do it...... I didn't see it. "I didn't want to stay any longer.

Lin Xiu was stunned, how can this kind of thing be regarded as not seeing? He took two steps and said, "How can this be, Miss Liu...... Miss Liu ......, "But I saw that the girl was moving faster and faster, and in a blink of an eye, she disappeared."

He couldn't help but be very annoyed, it was clear that his innocent body had already shown people that he was not there

What does it look like? It was as if it was him who was looking at it. It's just that this is the case now, and I thought about discussing marriage in 2 years, but I have to go back and explain it to my mother.

Sister Xiaofu here doesn't think that Lin Xiuzhi will come to ask for marriage, first, she has a bad reputation, and she has just quit her marriage, not to mention the year

Ji She is older than that scholar, and although the Lin family is not rich and has an average family background, but he is the only scholar in the vicinity, and his reputation is not ordinary, if he wants to get married, what kind of woman is he looking for?

After returning, I saw Aunt Feng in the village talking to Li Shi in the house, and when she came back, she smiled and said, "You two will discuss this matter, and I will come back tomorrow to ask about the results." ”

Li Shi sent Aunt Feng out, and when she came back, she saw that Sister Xiaofu's hair was wet, so she asked, "What's wrong with your hair?" ”

Sister Xiaofu said: "It's okay, but I sweated and washed by the river." ”

Li Shi handed her the palm towel and said, "Why don't you open it and wipe it quickly, but don't get cold." ”

Sister Xiaofu said while wiping: "Mother, what is Aunt Feng doing here?" ”

Li Shi hesitated for a while and said, "Your Aunt Feng is here to be a matchmaker, and the object is the eldest son of her second uncle's family. ”

The population of this village is small, and everyone knows who their relatives and friends are. When Sister Xiaofu heard this, she frowned and said: "Mother, do you know who that Feng Laohu is, he usually doesn't do farming, and he often messes with those people in the mountains, and the previous daughter-in-law couldn't stand his beating and scolding before she ran away?" Mother, I don't agree to this marriage. ”

Li Shi frowned, and finally sighed and said: "Your Aunt Feng said that Feng Laohu is already honest, and he took a fancy to you, saying that he only wants you to hand over after the door, and he will concentrate on the land in the future, and he will definitely not fool around with those people in the mountains again." ”

Some of the people in the mountains were originally from farming families, but they were all idle people. They gathered in the temple of the mountain, and sometimes they did some robbery, but in fact they were no different from the bandits.

These people are thirsty and have fun in the mountains, except for good things, they do everything, and they are all bad to the bones, so they don't believe that they can go home in peace.

Sister Xiaofu said coldly: "Even if he says that he will buy me a golden house to live in the future, I will not marry." "I remember that some time ago, I went to the market and met Feng Laohu on the side of the road, and that guy didn't look at her with good eyes at that time, and that look really made her feel disgusting.

Li Shi is a person who has no opinions, and it is only easy to listen to her say this.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Li Shi's face turned red as if he was thinking about something, and said, "Don't talk about this yet, I'll go cook here, and you will rest after eating!" ”

Sister Xiaofu picked the corners of her mouth and said, "Actually, Uncle Tie is coming?" ”

Li Shi coughed lightly and said, "You can't take care of this matter, why don't you help with it." ”

Sister Xiaofu agreed, and the mother and daughter cooked the meal together and ate it in a hurry. Sister Xiaofu picked it up and went back to the middle room and closed the door tightly, originally she wanted to talk to Uncle Tie a few words, but Li Shi did not agree with what she asked for.

Changing into a small shirt and lying on the kang, she was still thinking about the present

What happened on the day. In fact, Lin Xiuzhi's life is good, and his skin is fair, even compared to ordinary women. The noodles are also thin skin and tender meat, and I think it is a long-term non-farming and hiding

The reason for reading in the attic.

How old is he this year?

I remember listening to some of the three aunts and 6 mothers-in-law once mentioned it, it was the year before last! Scholar Lin Xiu became the focus of attention after winning the township exam, they often discussed at the time, only at the age of fourteen years old to pass the township exam, this is a hundred years in the township has not encountered a major event, it is said that even the county magistrate has met with him.

Now this Lin Xiuzhi should be ten or sixteen, two years younger than himself!

smiled helplessly in his heart, people have a bright future, and they will never come from a family to ask for relatives? Now there are only those who have been married or have some disabilities, and they are not young. Besides, no matter what you think, it's not okay, forget about sleeping, thinking too much is even more messy, so I haven't seen him today and I haven't seen him and I haven't shown my innocence.

What people never expected was that as soon as she got up and picked up the kang when the rooster crowed five times in the morning, she saw Li Shi running in in panic and said: "Sister Xiaofu, don't come out, Mother Zhang from the neighboring village is here, saying that she is here to be a matchmaker for Scholar Lin." Don't come out, don't come out! ”
