Chapter 62: The City Girl
The couple asked the eldest girl to bring the letter and go outside the city to find the child and her aunt.
The eldest girl is still three days away from being in time, although she really wants to be with the leather monkey, but neither of them seems to think about it, just let the child and her aunt take people to take a look in the village.
I heard that most of the brothers in Zhoujia Village are honest and capable, and it is good to meet and get acquainted with each other!
Chen Yuanyuan didn't know what her father and mother were thinking, so she took the letter like this and went to Zhoujia Village excitedly.
At this time, she can't wait to prove herself with her actions!
If you want to see the land and buy the land, you have to negotiate with Master Zhou who fired the kiln for a while, and you have to find a carpenter to discuss the construction of the workshop, which is not possible in two or three days.
She was extremely embarrassed to take a three-day leave from Shopkeeper Song, and said hello to the audience in advance.
Now she was talking about the highlights, when she suddenly heard that she was leaving, and the loyal listeners who often came were depressed, and even told her to come back soon.
Chen Yuanyuan couldn't cry or laugh, closed the makeup studio, and hired a carriage to go to Zhoujia Village.
The aunt of the Chen family has been married for many years, and I heard that she has five children, the eldest daughter is already married, the second son is as old as her, the third and fourth are all girls, and the fifth is only three years old this year.
Zhoujia Village is about half an hour away from the imperial capital, and she took a break in the carriage, not far from her destination.
This is the first time she has gone far away, and the first time she has seen the ancient majestic mountains, the winding mountain roads, the continuous dense forests in winter, and the silver frost all over the place, which looks like a very ink painting at a glance.
Although the Chen family was poor, they always lived in the imperial capital, and they were faced with prosperous buildings.
She walked all the way to Zhoujia Village and was shocked.
If you just arrived at Chen's house, you think Chen's house is like a pigsty.
At this moment, entering the deep mountains and old forests, entering Zhoujia Village, there is only one family hundreds of meters apart, and there are even thatched wooden houses, only to feel as if entering another country!
Until I came to a banyan tree and met a few children.
The children of the village had probably never seen a carriage, and Novelty was afraid to follow behind.
Chen Yuanyuan had to get out of the carriage and give the money, and then walked slowly and asked, "Do you know where Chen Meizhen's family lives?" ”
Hearing the familiar name, the child snorted and smiled: "What are you really looking for Chen Mei?" ”
Seeing the little ghost's head sobbing into his nose, he wiped it with his dirty little hands, and the corners of his mouth smiled like a flower, Chen Yuanyuan laughed dryly.
"I'm her eldest niece, I'm looking for her right now."
"Are you really Aunt Mei Zhen's niece?"
Looking at the beautiful and clean big sister in front of me, I couldn't imagine that it was Aunt Meizhen's niece.
"Naturally, I have letters to prove it."
When she spoke, Chen Yuanyuan had already taken out the letter.
Although the simple child was illiterate, he was very convinced when he saw that there was something to take out, and immediately pointed to the earthen house next to a dry tree in front of him.
"That's Aunt Mizhen's home."
"Thank you, little friend."
When Chen Yuanyuan said, she had already taken out a few candies and distributed them to a few people.
In the winter, the work in the fields cannot be done, and the people are all nesting at home for the winter.
At this time, I saw a brittle big girl in the village, and they all ran out of the house to look.
I saw that the person who came was carved in pink, with red lips and white teeth, wearing a fluffy and strange hat on his head, wearing small pink gloves in his hands, a small light blue jacket and a small beige skirt, beautiful and clean, and the clothes on his body were stunned without a patch, which was very good-looking.
Chen Yuanyuan saw that everyone was looking at her, and she couldn't wait to look back and forth from head to toe.
She was a little unwell, and thought she was dressed strangely.
My father and mother said that she wanted to tell a story, and she had to dress decently, so she was stunned and asked her to buy several clothes.
As for the small white velvet hat with earmuffs, her grandmother sewed it for her, the gloves were sewn by Qingqing, and the little rabbit velvet leather boots Grandma also gave each of her three sisters and brothers a pair.
Facing a group of strangers looking at her, Chen Yuanyuan smiled politely at everyone in embarrassment, trotted all the way to the door of her aunt's house and knocked.
The one who came to open the door was a handsome young man as old as her.
When the young man saw her suddenly, he was stunned at first, then his face was flushed, and he stammered, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"You're the way?"
When the young man saw her say her name, his face was full of doubts: "Are you?" ”
"I'm Yuanyuan, the eldest daughter of your uncle's family, and we are relatives." As she spoke, Chen Yuanyuan already smiled brightly, revealing a mouthful of white silver teeth.
The young man's face turned red, and he looked at the girl in front of him, and he was indeed a little familiar.
The last time he saw his cousin was three years ago, when his grandfather had just passed away, and his cousin was only eleven or twelve, and he didn't want to grow up to be such a beautiful big girl now.
"Luzi, who's here?"
An old woman inside saw where the two of them were, and couldn't help asking.
Chen Yuanyuan looked inside, the old woman was much better than her grandmother, she should be Grandma Luzi.
She immediately smiled sweetly, "Grandma." ”
The grandmother of the Zhou family looked puzzled, why did a handsome little girl suddenly come?
Lu Zi hurriedly explained: "Milk, this is the eldest cousin of the Chen family. ”
A few more people came out of the house, two children and a couple, and the woman was holding a little boy in her hand.
"Cousin, come in."
"Okay."
Chen Yuanyuan winked at Luzi, and in order not to be embarrassed, she immediately smiled: "My mother said, you are only half a year older than me, we were born in the same year, if I was born half a year earlier, I would be my cousin." ”
The young man scratched his head a little shyly, and hurriedly invited someone into the house.
Chen Yuanyuan carried a makeup case on her back and carried a bunch of things left and right in her hands.
Looking at the girl's struggling appearance, the uncle of the Zhou family hurriedly stepped forward to help move things, and the old and young of the Zhou family also enthusiastically moved the stool and poured tea for her to rest.
The aunt of the Chen family and the in-laws have a total of two brothers.
At this time, all the old and young gathered in the courtyard to look at Chen Yuanyuan, and they looked at the latter dressed brightly, and there was a trace of envy in the eyes of the second room.
The aunt of the Chen family had already run outside the door to look, but there was no one left and right, and she was shocked: "Yuanyuan, why don't you see your father?" ”
"Auntie, I'm here alone today, and I have to ask my aunt to take care of me for two or three days."
"Look at what you said, you just call this your home." The aunt of the Chen family said, she had put down the child in her arms and stepped forward to greet her guests.
The grandmother of the Zhou family also sat on one side and began to pull homely: "Is your grandmother okay?" ”
"Some time ago, I encountered something, my grandmother was sick once, and her body bones are not as good as before. It's the grandmother of the Zhao family, who looks at the spirit. ”
"Then you will tell your grandmother to work less, your body and bones are important, and your children and grandchildren here have their own children and grandchildren." The grandmother of the Zhao family sighed, and she also knew that after the old man Chen left, the grandmother of the Chen family was not in good health.
