Chapter 33: Man, Dead

Xiao Mu blushed suddenly, and lowered his head without saying a word. Seeing Xiao Mu like this, I was happy all of a sudden, and hurriedly pulled Xiao Mu and asked, "Xiao Mu, dare you and the daughter of the Zhang family also have a relationship in private?" You kid! In this way, this marriage is quite reliable, at least one couple is satisfied with each other, otherwise it all depends on arrangement, and the husband and wife will not be happy if they are not harmonious in the future! ”

"Actually, I didn't have a few contacts, but Qiaoqiao made me two new pairs of shoes...... Xiao Mu blushed and stammered: "Qiaoqiao is really sincere to me, but her parents don't agree with Qiaoqiao's marriage with me, in the end, they still think I'm too poor, and there is no other family background in the family except for the old scalper." ”

I didn't bother to listen to Xiao Mu say anything else, grinned, and hurriedly asked, "Then tell me, what gift did you give to others?" At least you should say it too, right? This is called a token of love, hehe! ”

Xiao Mu said with a simple face: "I really can't think of anything to give her, but I led my old cow to do a lot of farm work for them, I don't have anything else, I still have the strength to do farm work, if Qiaoqiao really became a family with me, I will definitely not let her go to the field to do farm work, I will do a good job, and I will live a small life in the future!" As he spoke, Xiao Mu looked at the void outside with a wistful expression, as if imagining his happy little days in the future.

I didn't say anything all night, and the next morning, when I was still asleep, I only heard Master's voice calling me, I opened my eyes in a daze, and asked, "Master, why did you wake me up so early?" I didn't sleep until the second half of the night last night, and I haven't slept for two hours until now, so you can't let me sleep a little longer......" As he spoke, I was about to lie down and continue to sleep, but Master picked me up by the ear.

The pain made me grin, and I hurriedly got up and got out of bed, rubbing my ears with a bitter face while putting on my clothes and shoes. At this time, Master said to me in a deep voice, "Are you still sleeping?" Something happened to the Komaki family! ”

"Something's wrong? What's wrong? Oh yes, Komaki's grandfather just passed away. I hesitated, but then immediately looked up and asked, "No! Komaki's grandfather has just passed away and has been buried in the ground, this shouldn't be a new thing, right? But as soon as I finished asking, I heard the commotion in the yard, and there were voices of anger, and I didn't know what they were talking about.

Master also glanced outside, and then said to me: "The matter of Xiaomu's family is not the death of Grandpa Xiaomu, but ...... It's the daughter of the Zhang family, and it is said that she died last night......"

"Huh?"

When I heard the news in a trance, I suddenly became energetic, opened my mouth, and I confirmed again: "Dead, dead?" How did he die? Then, if the daughter of the Zhang family dies, who will Xiao Mu marry? Isn't this half a day's work in vain?! Master, could it be that the people of the Zhang family want to regret it and don't want their daughter to marry Xiao Mu, so they deliberately lied to the people here that their daughter is dead? ”

How do you know that the master shook his head and said: "Listening to the words of the people outside, it doesn't seem like there is a fake, the daughter of the Zhang family is really dead!" But the specific reason, the teacher doesn't understand, you hurry up and get dressed, let's go out and ask! ”

At this time, I had already put on my clothes and shoes, put on my master's yellow cloth bag, and put on my back the demon sword, so I followed Master out of the hall quickly. At this moment, I saw the villagers of Feng'er Village standing in the courtyard, many of whom helped to send Xiao Mu's grandfather to the funeral last night, but at this moment the villagers' attention was on Xiao Mu's second grandfather, and Xiao Mu was sitting on the edge of the cowshed without saying a word, drooping his head, one hand caressing the old cow's neck from time to time, without saying a word.

Xiao Mu's second grandfather, Old Man Li, said angrily at this time: "The Zhang family is really unkind, since their daughter has a heart disease, she should have said it earlier!" Now that people say that death is death, so that the people on our side are not prepared at all, and in the future, can Xiao Mu still marry a wife?! ”

Heart disease? Does the daughter of the Zhang family have heart disease? Could it be that he died of a heart attack? I see, this is indeed regrettable and painful, especially when poor Xiaomu's beautiful marriage is gone. And it's not in this way, if it spreads, other people's families still think that whose daughter will die if she marries Xiao Mu, then who is willing to marry her daughter to Xiao Mu? This is very misleading!

And the Zhang family is indeed unkind, the daughter is sick, it turns out that she will reluctantly agree to marry her daughter to Xiao Mu because she is sick, so it seems that if the daughter of the Zhang family is good, maybe she will not agree to the marriage with Xiao Mu. Alas, now that the daughter of the Zhang family is dead, Xiao Mu's body is shattered, how should he live in the future......

I only heard the old man Li say again: "In the morning, the people of the Zhang family knocked on the door before dawn and told me about it, and said that if our Li family's Xiao Mu is willing to marry their daughter Zhang Qiaoqiao, it will ...... Let's hold a secret marriage for them, you say, everyone is dead, let our family Xiaomu and a dead person have a secret marriage, isn't this bullying? Their daughters are human, and our family's Xiaomu is not human?! ”

"Yes, yes, the people of the Zhang family don't treat Xiao Mu as a human being, if Xiao Mu is young and has a dead man's secret marriage, then how will he marry a wife in the future? Who would want to marry his daughter to him? ”

"Let the Zhang family die of this heart, their daughter dies and wants to get a cheap husband, but doing so can be regarded as a harm to Xiaomu, saying that they can't agree to marry their daughter!"

“…………”

The villagers, you and I are talking about it, and they are all angrily accusing the Zhang family. But I'm also angry with Xiao Mu in my heart, it stands to reason that your Zhang family's daughter died of a sudden illness, and it is indeed worthy of sympathy, but you can't wronged Xiao Mu in order to find a companion for your family's daughter after death! Xiao Mu is a young man, if this thing is done, then he will wait to beat the bachelor in the future, he is poor and white, and he can't find a wife, if he makes a fuss again, there is no hope!

"I do!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, Xiao Mu Huodi stood up and said solemnly: "Second grandfather, I, I am willing to hold a wedding for Qiaoqiao!" This is what I owe her, I promised to marry her no matter what, I must not break my word, second grandfather, let me and Qiaoqiao get married, even if I can never marry a wife in the future, I will admit it! The only thing I don't want to be wronged is Qiaoqiao, she died at such a young age, the road in the underworld is dark, it's not easy to walk, she must be very lonely, if I marry her, even if it's in the underworld, she can be regarded as a person with a family to rely on, and no other ghost dares to bully her! ”

"Nonsense!" Old man Li suddenly scolded Xiao Mu angrily, and then said: "No matter how poor our family is, we can't be so spineless!" Have you forgotten about quietly burying your grandfather last night? This is done so that you can marry a daughter-in-law and live a good life, so that even if it is the second grandfather and I will be a hundred years later, I will laugh at Jiuquan, but what kind of marriage are you willing to marry a dead person, their Zhang family is happy, and the daughter can have a name and surname when she dies, but what about our family? What are you going to do in the future?! ”

Xiao Mu lowered his head aggrievedly, hesitated for a while, and then said: "If I am destined to fight for a lifetime in the future, I will admit it, anyway, I promised to marry Qiaoqiao, I must do it!" ”

Old man Li angrily slapped Xiao Mu's face, this voice scared me all over, only to hear Old Man Li say again: "I am not allowed!" No matter how poor our old Li family is, they have to be poor and have backbone! You must not have any secret marriage with the Zhang family! Xiao Mu, let me tell you, although your grandfather is gone, but you still have a second grandfather, I can manage you too! If you dare to marry the daughter of the Zhang family, the second grandfather, I will immediately throw myself into the big river in the west and drown! ”

"Second grandfather......" Xiao Mu's tears suddenly burst out of his eyes, and he stretched out his hand to pull the placket of Old Man Li's clothes and cried: "Second grandfather, please promise me, I am willing to fight a bachelor for the rest of my life, and I can't break my promise to Qiaoqiao, I said I would marry her, now that she is dead, there is nothing, and I am still alive, last night the second dog brother asked me what gift I gave Qiaoqiao, I really didn't, I owe her so much, let me do something for her to compensate her, second grandfather, please, woo woo woo ......"

Belch...... I didn't expect Xiao Mu to take out all the words I said last night, which made my old face red, if Old Man Li was looking for trouble with me at this time, I really had nothing to say. But what I said last night was a joke, and I didn't expect Zhang Qiaoqiao to die like that! If I had known, I would not have talked nonsense, but now this matter is done, alas!

However, at this moment, a young girl's voice appeared coldly behind the villagers: "I agree with Brother Xiaomu's idea, I should do something for that Sister Qiaoqiao, Grandpa Li, Brother Xiaomu is so kind, and he is willing to do such a thing for Zhang Qiaoqiao, which shows that Brother Xiaomu is a good man who values love and righteousness, I think Brother Xiaomu is right, Brother Xiaomu, I support you to do this!" ”

Under the astonishment of everyone, I saw a young girl dressed beautifully and lovely, walking out from behind, tall and pretty, looking about eighteen or nineteen years old. It's just that she is wearing simple and shabby clothes, but she still can't hide the special temperament of this girl. Listening to her words, she looks like a smart girl who reads poetry and books and is reasonable.

"Han Xiaomei? You're actually ...... Thank you, thank you for supporting me. Xiao Mu looked at the visitor, first surprised, and then said with a grateful face. But this scene made everyone present even more stunned.
