Chapter 40: The Bride Price
No one can tell the age of the big tree at the head of the village, the branches of the tree are long and lush, and the branches under the leaves are thick and round.
The two children sat in the sand leaning against the trunk of a tree, separated by a small empty bowl from each other.
Ah Xiong glanced at the small bowl, burped, and said with some amusement: "I didn't expect that your little broken bowl can be loaded." ”
Xiao Wan also glanced at his little broken bowl: "No, I was fed by it, it contains the food I have eaten all my life." ”
"For a lifetime?" Ah Xiong laughed at the small bowl and said: "How old are you, you dare to say it for a lifetime?" ”
Xiao Wan's face turned red, and he said to Ah Xiong very seriously: "Anyway, I will definitely be indispensable for the rest of my life." ”
Ah Xiong's face was even more hot in vain, but Ah Xiong's skin was very dark, and he didn't let Xiao Wan see his shyness: "I'm really not ashamed, but a woman like you who is not ashamed, I'm afraid only I dare to marry you." ”
Xiao Wan immediately turned his head away, stammered and pretended to be angry, "Who...... Who wants to ...... Marry you...... This one...... Wild children. ”
Xiaowan panicked, but Ah Xiong listened to it, so he said with some annoyance: "What's wrong with me being a wild child, if you are afraid of living a poor life with me, I will earn it." ”
As he spoke, Ah Xiong suddenly stood up, glanced at the small bowl, and ran towards his broken temple.
Xiaowan was stupid in place, and he didn't know how the two of them who were so good ran away at this moment.
She picked up the empty bowl on the ground, glanced in the direction of Ah Xiong's broken temple, lowered her head, and walked back to her home.
This year, Xiaowan was six years old and Ah Xiong was nine years old.
Jiang Rin's perspective:
This proper childhood sweetheart, two little guesses, I looked at the picture of the old world eye that stopped, and couldn't help but glance back at the little Wang Ba.
Xiao Wang Ba has a bit of a heart to do with me at this time, and when I look at him, he is actually looking at me.
"Look what I do! Mortal! Xiao Wangba's face suddenly turned red, and he said to me arrogantly.
The pure and flawless sweetness that ignited in my heart because of Xiaowan and Ah Xiong disappeared instantly, and I pouted at Xiao Wang Ba, and teased him improperly: "It's not good to see that you look good." ”
"Stinky rascal!" Xiao Wang Ba immediately sneered at each other without showing weakness.
"Hey! Believe it or not, I'll lock you out of my body later. ”
"Tiger falls in Pingyang!" Xiao Wang Ba was told by me, so he didn't dare to fight with me anymore, his time to appear in the real world every day is limited, if I was really forced to isolate from my consciousness, Xiao Wang Ba can only be transformed into the form of a gem to exist in reality, can't move, can't say it, as a god, such a restriction is really pitiful.
However, what I don't understand is that he, a comrade from ancient Egypt, learned so many idioms and witticisms in his mouth, and his mastery of Chinese is even more proficient than that of me, a native of China.
The proprietress on the side was silent and thought for a long time, and saw that the two of us were no longer bickering, so she asked Xiao Wangba: "If you are a child, just take a look at it, according to my inference, Xiaowan's state of mind has a turn, it should be when the love is first opened, you look for the node of Xiaowan's life." ”
Xiao Wang Ba nodded, stretched out his hand to pull the hologram picture of Horus, and tapped it in the picture with his fingers, and the picture of the old world that was a little old and yellowed instantly flew between Xiao Wang Ba's fingers like fast forward and slow motion in the movie.
"Boss, why are you so interested in Xiaowan's customer?" Taking advantage of the time when Xiao Wang Ba was busy, I couldn't help but ask the proprietress .
"Xiao Jiang Rin, after Xiaowan came to the company, did you notice anything unusual in the company?" The proprietress did not answer directly, but asked me.
I shook my head, but I couldn't help but think about anything wrong around me after meeting that Xiaowan client with heavy makeup.
Needless to say, Xiao Wang Ba and the proprietress are the same, nothing has changed, one is always so beautiful, and the other is still unforgiving.
And for the rest, the hostess's office is still so pink, while my office is ......
Seem...... The grass in the Demon Forest, which I have been caring for for a long time, is extremely restless today.
I walked out of the hostess's office and stood in the middle of my office, the Demon Forest, and listened to the sounds of the Demon Forest with my eyes closed.
The dream-eating grasses seem to have never been so restless, and between the occasional swinging blades of grass, there is a sense of anticipation that is hard to ignore.
What are they expecting? Could it be that there is something on Xiaowan's body that attracts dream-eating grass?
I walked back to the boss's office, and before I could speak, the boss asked, "Do you feel it?" ”
I nodded, "I can't tell what I felt from the Demon Forest, I just feel that today's Dream Eater Grass seems to be extraordinarily active." ”
"This is a sign that a person's illusion is so strong that it makes the dream-eating grass covet." The proprietress looked at me with satisfaction: "I didn't expect you to be able to hear the sound of the wind in the Demon Forest so soon, it seems that Xiao Jiang Rin really has the qualifications to inherit my company." ”
"Come on." Xiao Wang Ba, who stopped making noise, suddenly interjected: "Jiang Rin is such a stupid woman, this company is in her hands, I'm afraid it will be closed in two days." ”
I didn't bother to worry about Xiao Wangba, and put on a face of an uncle waiting to watch the show: "Are you okay, I've been running around with the outside, you haven't done a good job here, don't be so rusty about business." ”
"What a joke! I am the god of the sky, the king of ancient Egypt! It's not easy to find a life node! The blonde foreigner in front of me spat out the idiom again, and I didn't bother to complain, so I heard the proprietress say: "If you find it, then continue." ”
The Eye of the Old World opened again, and the image condensed in mid-air moved again.
Eyes of the Old World:
Ten years later, the small bowl has long since ceased to be malnourished, but a pair of eyes have not become smaller, a pair of big and round eyes are bright, with the unique clarity and tenderness of a girl who has just opened her love.
Xiaowan can no longer face yellow and thin, all because of Ah Xiong's relationship.
Since a long time ago, Ah Xiong has moved to a nearby town to work, returning to the village once a week, and every time he returns, he will bring a bunch of new and delicious things to Xiaowan.
Every weekend, Xiaowan would always be under the big tree at the entrance of the village, waiting for Ah Xiong to come back, and the slim girl would stand under the shade of the tree so stupidly, occasionally greeting the villagers passing by.
A fat and fat teenager rode a bicycle from the small bowl in front of the eyes, but slowly poured back, the rider was no one else, it was the old Ah Xiong who cried Fu Zai, Fu Zai has already reached the age of development, tall and fat, a pair of small eyes saw that there was a small bowl standing under the tree, the bicycle that had been ridden in the past, and deliberately pinched the handlebar to turn back.
"Little bowl!" Fu Zai saw that the clothes that Xiaowan was wearing today were only in the city, and he couldn't help but praise with joy: "The new clothes are so beautiful!" ”
Xiao Wan only replied absentmindedly: "Brother Ah Xiong bought it for me last week." ”
"It's Ah Xiong again." Fu Zai straddled the bicycle and asked a little unhappily, "Didn't I tell you not to have anything to do with Ah Xiong?" ”
"I didn't agree to what your parents told my grandfather, and I don't need you to take care of me now." Xiao Wan replied unhappily.
"How's that going to work!" Fu Zai reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the small bowl: "My dad said that I will marry you after the New Year, the bride price deposit has been sent to your house, and your grandfather has accepted it, how can you disagree." ”
"My grandpa is my grandpa, I am me. I'm going to ask my grandfather to return it to your family today! You bother me less! Xiaowan remembered the events of the first two days, and his heart was still very unhappy, Ah Fu's parents cheekily stuffed the dowry into their yard It was really ugly, if it weren't for the fact that Grandpa was old and frail, and couldn't push them, how could Ah Fu misunderstand that his family agreed to this marriage?
"Don't pretend, your grandmother accepted all the bride price behind her back, and said that your grandfather's illness just needed this money, and your grandmother also told my mother that after the New Year, let us do things, even if you don't want to, you have to be willing." Ah Fu said chiseled with a small bowl.
When Xiao Wan heard it, he remembered the extra meat dish he had added during the meal in the past two days, and his heart sank - what Ah Fu said was clear-eyed, his grandmother wouldn't really be so confused and accept their family's money, right?
"Even if my grandmother accepts your family's bride price! It's a big deal how much you received, I'll let Brother Ah Xiong give it back to you for me first! ”
"Ah Xiong?" Fu Zai instantly sneered and said disdainfully: "He is a working boy, how much money can he have, but my family has given you a full 100,000 yuan!" ”
As he was talking, Ah Fu suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and the hand holding the sleeve of the small bowl was instantly released, and the bicycle fell down with Ah Fu's body.
"Brother Xiong!" The small bowl that was pretending to be calm and arguing with Fu Zai, when he saw Ah Xiong who finally came back, his eyes suddenly filled with tears, and after shouting Ah Xiong, he couldn't speak anymore.
"You!" Fu Tsai was beaten by Ah Xiong from childhood to adulthood, although Fang Cai despised Ah Xiong in his words, but at this moment, when he saw Ah Xiong standing in front of him, he lost his high spirits just now, pulled the handlebars, stepped on the bicycle and wanted to escape.
But before he rode far, Fu Zai turned his head on the bicycle and whispered: "Anyway, Xiaowan received my family's bride price, so you have to be my daughter-in-law, even if Ah Xiong is cross, you can't break the village rules!" ”
After the imposless shouting, Fu Tsai desperately picked up his bicycle and fled into the distance.
"How many days can you stay when you come back this time?" Xiaowan took advantage of Ah Xiong's intimidation of Fu Zai, he had already secretly wiped away his tears, and although his eyes were still red at the moment, he pretended to be relaxed and asked Ah Xiong: "Can you stay with me for two more days?" ”
"What Fu Tsai said just now is true?" Ah Xiong didn't answer, but asked Xiao Wan coldly.
Xiao Wan was aggrieved, but he didn't dare to tell Ah Xiong the truth, besides, whether what Fu Zai just said was true or not, Xiao Wan himself didn't know, and after coming and going, Xiao Wan had no idea at all, looking at Ah Xiong, whose face was getting worse and worse, he was instantly speechless, and for a while, he didn't say a word.
Ah Xiong shook off the small bowl and walked in the direction of the small bowl without saying a word.
