Chapter 22: I'll Give You a Reason
"Yay! Long live Daddy! Song Xingchen danced happily, and caught a glimpse of Yelang sitting alone on the haystack in the yard looking up at the starry sky, her heart suddenly fluttered, she knew what it was like, people usually called this feeling - heartbeat.
Such a good-looking side face is really fascinating. Although she was only six years old, her soul was that of a highly educated young woman in her twenties.
Like it or not, she still feels it, Yelang's status in this family is in jeopardy, and she has to find a way to keep him by her side all the time.
She jumped out of the chair and walked out, Yelang heard her footsteps, turned his face to look at her, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Why did you come out?"
Song Xingchen bared out a row of small milk teeth, "Brother Yelang, I won't leave you, I didn't think of letting you leave when I brought you back." ”
Her eyes flashed with sincerity, and she looked at Yelang with a serious face.
Yelang smiled and opened his eyebrows, reached out and touched her head, "Silly girl, I will leave sooner or later, I can't cause you trouble and increase the burden on the family." ”
The light in Song Xingchen's eyes flashed and dimmed, "Do you want to leave?" Do you want to leave me? You're telling the truth. ”
She grabbed Yelang's hand and looked him in the eye expectantly.
The starlight in the night sky was circulating in their eyes, the air was still around, he wanted to perfunctory, but he couldn't, he couldn't deceive such an innocent girl, and he had to face his inner feelings.
"Want to go?" Song Xingchen's tone softened, a little tentative and a little trembling.
"I don't want to." Yelang shook his head, "But I don't have a reason to stay here forever, I don't belong here." ”
His worries are not superfluous, and he is not unaware of the helplessness of Song Sanshan's family, the poor people in the village can't raise their heads because of the gossip in the village, they shouldn't bear too much burden for their own good, Yelang has self-blame in his heart.
"You want a reason, I can give it to you, but I ask you, are you willing to do whatever you want to do as long as you stay here and be by my side?"
Song Xingchen's heart beat a drum, and his nervous heart was pounding.
Yelang's gloomy eyes flashed with a hint of brightness, and he said firmly: "I do!" I want to protect you all the time! ”
Song Xingchen let go of the hand that was holding him tightly, which made Yelang feel like he was being pushed away, and he was vaguely worried.
She turned and ran into the house, the two pigtails on her head jumping and jumping with her steps.
"Daddy, I have an idea to save my reputation, and I won't let others talk about the second sister and the third sister."
She said excitedly.
Song Sanshan took two puffs of cigarette pouches, and the family looked at her curiously, this little head had the most ideas, what kind of ghost idea did this have.
Song Lu hugged her, put her on his lap, and pinched her fleshy little face, "My old girl has come up with any good ideas again, tell my mother?" ”
"yes, what do you mean by that?" Song Yue leaned over and looked at her curiously.
Song Xingchen covered his little face with a shy look, "Hehe, I have an idea." ”
"What?" The family looked at her expectantly, and she also sold Guanzi.
"Hmm...... I want to raise a door-to-door son-in-law for my father. After speaking, Song Xingchen blushed and smiled shyly.
This sentence can scare Song Lu and Song Sanshan enough, "What?!" How old are you, and don't you think your home is messy enough? ”
Song Sanshan was the first to sit still, and Song Yang and Song Mutou also cast suspicious glances at her.
"That's right, old girl, who are we talking about outside, it's too late to hide from those dirty waters, how can you still go forward against the wind, then others don't have to say bad about your reputation?"
Song Lushi shook her legs and shook Song Xingchen on her legs, she was getting more and more incomprehensible about this little girl, and she always had a feeling that she was out of her control, and she couldn't control her.
"Xingxing, aren't you afraid that others will talk about you?" Song March rarely opened her mouth at this time, she didn't like to talk, and she didn't express any opinions, she did what her father said, but she liked this little sister from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't want her to be wronged.
Song Xingchen shook his head, and didn't notice Yelang at the door, "I'm not afraid, I like Brother Yelang." ”
Song Lu's face was a little embarrassed, his eyes looked at Song Sanshan, and said, "Her father, you say something, what can I do?"
Song Sanshan saw Yelang at the door, sighed and didn't speak.
"Dad, mother, listen to me." Song Xingchen straightened up, "I have considered this approach, Brother Yelang is really good to me, and I also think that he fits my eyes, so I will recruit a son-in-law, and the people in the village will know that he is not a wild man, and they will not say that the girls in our third room are not clean, because he is my future husband." ”
Song Lu was a little moved, and the eyes of the eldest brother and the second brother were a little more understanding, but they were still afraid that Song Xingchen was sacrificing his reputation for the sake of his family, after all, in this era, the most important thing for a woman is her reputation.
"Little sister, you have to think about it, do you really like him?"
Song Yang glanced at Yelang and asked the question that Yelang wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.
"Big brother, although I am small, I can distinguish between good and bad, and I know whether I like it or not, so don't ask these embarrassing words, it's embarrassing."
Song Xingchen twisted his little face, his cheeks crimson.
Yelang's heart fluttered, it turned out that she thought so, her sweetheart also liked herself, what could be happier than this?
"Well, since we're not going to say anything anymore, let's do it." Song Sanshan made an attitude with the momentum of the head of the family.
Anyway, his reputation has been ruined, no matter how bad it is, how bad can it be, which also reassures him a lot, he doesn't have to worry about him leaving after they have raised Yelang for so long, and he doesn't have to worry about not giving his mother's flowers when he earns money.
Song Xingchen bent his eyes, and two rows of small milk teeth were exposed.
"In this way, Brother Yelang can add a little income to the family in the future, how good!" She clapped her hands and smiled.
Yelang looked at her happy appearance from the bottom of his heart and smiled unconsciously, he now not only has a reason to stay by her side, but also has the identity to take care of her.
Song Xingchen seems to have become the driving force and goal of his life, she is his sun, and in his heart, flowers bloom everywhere Song Xingchen passes.
Yelang walked over and touched Song Xingchen's shoulder, as soon as she turned around, the eyes of the two people collided, Yelang looked at her a little embarrassed, "Don't worry, I will work hard to earn money and will not disappoint you." ”
Song Xingchen was stunned for a moment, what Yelang said was from the bottom of his heart, in this era, this is probably the most touching and practical confession!
