"What's going on at home? In such a hurry? Is my mom sick? Luo Xiumei looked at Erhou innocently, she had been away from home for a few months, and she missed her mother a little.

"Yes! It's Madame's back pain, let's go back quickly! I'm afraid it's getting dark! The second monkey had to lie, and sure enough, as soon as Luo Xiumei heard that her mother was sick, she immediately turned around and went to ask her husband for leave, ran into her room to pack up her baggage, and followed the second monkey home.

"The owner of the village, the second lady has brought it back!" The second monkey and Luo Xiumei went into the backyard together and saw Luo Balin and the woman sitting in the courtyard.

"Mom, I'm back, and your back hurts again?" Luo Xiumei ran to the woman and took her hand.

"Hey, Xiumei! Mom is not sick, Mom, Mom ......" The woman choked up and couldn't speak, she was reluctant to let her daughter marry at such a young age, but she had no way to change it, so she was sad to think about it.

"Mom, what the hell is going on? How do you ......"

"Madame!" Luo Barin interrupted Xiumei's words, glanced at the woman, and motioned for her not to talk nonsense. Luo Xiumei glanced at Luo Balin and felt strange.

"Mom is not sick, so why did you trick me into coming back, what happened at home?" Luo Xiumei looked at everyone and asked.

"The owner of the village, have you been hiding it from Xiumei? Tomorrow ......"

"Let's talk about it tomorrow! Xiumei, hurry back to your room and rest, don't run around! There's something waiting for you tomorrow! Luo Balin interrupted his wife's words, looked at Luo Xiumei and said, although he was a little helpless about the matter of substitution, but he couldn't think of a better solution for the time being, so he could only wronged Luo Xiumei.

"Daddy, what's going on in the stockade?" The smart Luo Xiumei felt that her parents must have something to hide from her.

"Nothing happened! You better go back and rest! If you have enough spirits, you will be beautiful tomorrow! Luo Balin looked at Luo Xiumei and said firmly.

"Then I'll go back and rest first!" Although Luo Xiumei had doubts, but seeing that Luo Balin had become serious, she still obediently went back to the backyard, and ran to the next door to knock on the door before entering: "Sister, I'm back, are you inside?" ”

But she knocked for a long time and didn't see Luo Lihua open the door, she thought that her sister had always been out of the door, why wasn't she at home today.

"Uncle Monkey, where is my eldest sister? How is it not in the room? Luo Xiumei asked the second monkey who was about to go out of the backyard, and the second monkey hesitated for a while before saying, "The eldest lady is not at home, she is far away!" ”

"Where did you go?" Luo Xiumei asked, and the second monkey was afraid that he would leak his mouth, so he prevaricated: "Second Miss, I still have something to do, you can go back and rest quickly!" Saying that, she walked out of the backyard quickly, and Luo Xiumei looked at his back and was puzzled.

At noon on the second day, Luo Xiumei just got up for a while, and two or three mothers-in-law came in, as well as the wife of the owner of the village.

"Mom, is there any happy event going to be held in the village today? How did you get these in? Luo Xiumei looked at the jewelry and new clothes in the hands of several mothers-in-law and asked the wife of the owner of the village.

"Sister! Don't ask, put on all these new clothes, and hang up these silver jewelry that your mother gave you. The owner of the village looked at Luo Xiumei and said.

"It seems that there is really a happy event in the village! Okay, I've got new clothes, but I'll change them myself, you guys get out! Luo Xiumei, who didn't know the truth, looked at the new clothes and said happily.

"Hey, sister, it's better for mom to watch you wear it, you all go out, just bring in a basin of water for Mrs. Wu." The wife of the owner of the village called the mother-in-law out of the house, and she wanted to see her second daughter put on the wedding dress.

After a few mothers-in-law went out, Luo Xiumei quickly changed her clothes, but she was surprised when she stood in front of the mirror: "Mom, why are these clothes red, they seem to be worn when they get married!" ”

"Sister, it's you today, hey, do you think this dress looks good? Mom specially prepared it for you, it was originally waiting for you to wear it when you got married, and it is rare for you to come back today, so I will try it for you first! The owner of the village had no choice but to continue to coax Luo Xiumei, afraid that she would be reluctant to know the truth of the matter.

"Oh, I see! I thought there was a happy event in the village today! So I took it off? Saying that, Luo Xiumei was about to take off her new clothes, but the lady of the village owner held her hand and said, "Sister, you can wear it, and your mother will comb you with an adult's braid, and you will grow up." ”

After speaking, the wife of the owner of the village tied Luo Xiumei's hair and wrapped it in a headband, which is a headdress only for married women, Luo Xiumei looked at herself in the mirror curiously. Then the owner of the village put earrings on her, put on a headdress, and painted her cheeks and lips with red paper.

"Mom, why did you turn me into this? Are you going to meet someone? It's so strange to look at! Luo Xiumei looked at herself in the mirror and said curiously.

"Hey, I, okay, let's go to the front yard, the people who should come should also arrive!" Saying that, the wife of the owner of the village led Luo Xiumei to the front meeting hall, and the person who picked up the relatives in Tongluo Village was already standing there waiting.

"Yo, I didn't expect the eldest lady of the Luo Zhai master's family to sign like this, tender!" The people who got married in Tongluo Village looked at Luo Xiumei and said that they all thought she was 18-year-old Luo Lihua.

"Mom, what did they say?" Luo Xiumei looked at the battle of the marriage in Tongluo Village, and was a little puzzled, the wife of the owner of the village was afraid that Luo Xiumei would escape and cause a dispute between the two villages, so she said to the team that received the relatives: "The girl has seen it, you go to the door and wait, let's say a few words of self-consideration, and then send it out to say goodbye to our ancestors!" ”

The person who picked up the relatives listened to the words of the owner's wife, so he had to withdraw from the front yard and wait at the gate of the cottage.

"Sister, you must listen to your mother's words, your eldest sister is gone, now you have to marry Jin Minghua, the second son of the owner of Tongluo Village, if you don't marry ......"

Luo Xiumei's mouth grew in surprise when she heard her mother's words, and she couldn't digest this sudden marriage for a while, so she just looked at the owner of the village blankly.

"Sister, have you heard, you must marry over, otherwise the two villages will fight and don't know how to end!" The lady of the village owner looked at Luo Xiumei in a daze, and she didn't know if she understood the truth of the matter.

"Mom, you said that the eldest sister fell into the water and asked me to marry instead, so has Jin Minghua ever seen my eldest sister?" Luo Xiumei was taken aback and asked her what she was most worried about.

"Yes! Your eldest sister is gone, and you can't regret the marriage you promised in Tongluo Village, and your father can't help but think of you! Mrs. Zhai felt that Luo Xiumei seemed to be willing to marry as if she was willing to take over the marriage, and her heart was much more steady, and then said, "The Jin family has never seen your eldest sister's face, but they only know that her name is Pear Blossom." ”

"Ahh Mom, then I can't do it! Luo Xiumei shouted.
