By the river, several women came early in the morning to wash their clothes. Seeing Lin Xia, he quipped, "Yo, little sister of the Lin family, are you jumping into the river again today?" Why do you still have a bucket? ”

Lin Xia didn't take this to heart, found a relatively shallow place, carefully stood on the stone, threw the wooden barrel in the river, and then lifted it up, only a little more than half a barrel. This wooden barrel was originally a little heavy, Lin Xia's body was weak and weak, and he didn't lift it up for a long time after bending over, so he had to drag it away.

Du Shi saw Lin Xia dragging the wooden barrel back from a distance, and it instantly became popular, and he began to scold from afar, "You loser, how can you drag the barrel, it's all rotten for you!" ”

Lin Xia was speechless, she didn't know where this woman came from to scold so much, and she felt uncomfortable if she didn't scold people for a day. She was also scolded a little impatiently, and replied, "I only fell into the water yesterday, and I sent you out to work before I could take care of my body, where did I get the strength?" And in the morning, she ate a steamed bun and drank the soup that is so beautiful that she was not full at all.

"Dead girl, you are getting more and more capable now, you dare to talk back to me!" said that this Du clan rushed towards Lin Xia, and there was a posture to do a big job.

Seeing her menacing, Lin Xia hurriedly threw down the barrel and wanted to dodge back, but suddenly a scholar with the same figure as her stood in front of him.

"Mother, why are you bullying my sister again!"

As soon as Du Shi saw that it was his favorite youngest son, he immediately walked over with a smile on his face, "Chengzu, why did you come back suddenly?" Quick, enter the house, my mother will cook delicious food for you and make up for you, reading is so brain-consuming. ”

Lin Xia saw that Lin Chengzu was wearing a clean and neat white robe, which looked out of place with the countrymen, and exuded a scholarly atmosphere. Looking at that appearance again, the eyebrows are clear and beautiful, and he is a little delicate, standing with Lin Xia, his appearance is seventy or eighty percent similar. Whoever looks at it knows that the two of them are the dragon and phoenix fetus.

Lin Chengzu looked back at Lin Xia, "Sister, I'll move the barrel back with you." ”

Du Shi was not happy to hear it, "How can you do this kind of rough work, your hands are used for writing, just carry this wooden barrel for her." ”

"How can this work, my sister is a woman, she should be a female celebrity at home, I am a man, I should help my sister." Lin Chengzu said very sincerely.

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that Du Shi would be able to teach such a knowledgeable man.

In the end, it was Lin Chengzu who went back with Lin Xia to carry the bucket.

From the time Lin Chengzu entered the door, Lin Xia had never heard a word of Du scolding again, his speech was very gentle, and his tone was very gentle, compared to the past two days, it was a day and a place.

At noon, Du Shi also went to buy a fresh fish, and killed a chicken in the evening, most of which were sandwiched for Lin Chengzu to eat. At the dinner table, he also asked Lin Chengzu for warmth, asking if the money was enough and if he wanted to give him some. I didn't forget to tell the Zhao family to scramble some green vegetables, scramble a few eggs, and make some cakes tomorrow morning, all of which were prepared for Lin Chengzu.

Lin Chengzu later learned from others that his twin sister jumped into the river the day before yesterday, and he also promised to marry a hunter in the village, not the lord of the county, and breathed a sigh of relief for a while. He also knew very well that Du was a patriarchal person, and when he learned that he wanted to marry his twin sister to an old man in his thirties in the county as a concubine, he refused, but he never resisted his mother.

I didn't expect that my sister, who usually looks soft and weak, actually jumped into the river, so I guess how tormented it was at that time. What's even more excessive is that his mother actually asked the hunter for compensation, Lin Chengzu only felt ashamed and embarrassed, fortunately the hunter was willing to marry his sister, and the ending was a happy ending.

Lin Xia took Lin Chengzu's blessing, and after two days of clean days, he didn't work for two days. Either I had a few chats with Lin Chengzu, or I went to the village for a walk, especially Aunt Zhang, who lived next door to the Lin family, who often ran over to chat, and Uncle Zhang, the two in-laws were kind and easy to talk to. It's a pity that his son Zhang Shun is not by his side, he works as a small worker at the dock in the county, gets 100 wen a month, and often buys some food and small gifts for Uncle Zhang's two in-laws, which is quite filial.

Thinking that someone would come to the door tomorrow to propose a kiss, Lin Xia nervously touched a green bead hanging around his neck.

Speaking of the green beads hanging around her neck, this is her family's heirloom, and when she crossed over from modern times, she found that this bead was actually worn over.

Her family runs a century-old restaurant and has many ancestral secret recipes, but the real secret recipe is this green bead, called Jingling Bead. It can purify the impurities in the water, make the taste of the water very sweet, and it also contains ingredients similar to traditional Chinese medicine, which can nourish the body of the consumer. Therefore, the restaurant is full of sauces and vegetables that have been soaked in Jingling beads, which are more delicious and clean than the dishes watered with tap water outside.

And it is also very convenient to use, soak the spirit beads in ordinary water for five seconds, and the water will become pure spirit water, which can be directly drunk to nourish the body, and can also be fed to poultry so that poultry are not easy to get sick, and the meat quality is also excellent, and you can also water the seeds so that plants and vegetables do not grow insects and grow very beautiful. In the end, what you eat in your mouth has some health benefits.

Therefore, this Pure Spirit Bead can still be on the body, Lin Xia is very surprised. But she hasn't used it, she doesn't know if it has any effect, and secondly, she doesn't want to use it on people in the Lin family.

The next day, after breakfast, Du and Zhao hurriedly cleaned up the table. Lin Chengzu was also ready to go back to the school at this time, and the old man Lin secretly stuffed Lin Chengzu with a small cloth bag from his arms, and Lin Chengzu reluctantly accepted the silver in the cloth bag.

Lin Chengzu left on the front foot, and Lei Biao invited the matchmaker Lu Matchmaker in the village to come to the house to propose marriage, and also sent various dowry gifts according to the tradition of the village, two male and female chickens, two big fish, two pieces of cloth, and a bride price of fifty taels of silver.

The people in the village were very envious when they learned that Lei Biao had paid fifty taels of silver, and they even despised Old Man Lin's family, and they still didn't change their daughter's temperament.

When Du Shi saw these dowries, especially the fifty taels of silver, his smiling eyes never stopped, so he naturally agreed, and he couldn't wait to marry Lin Xia immediately.

On the day of the wedding.

No one expected that Lei Biao would actually order a big red sedan chair and a blowing person, and he also bought a horse, walked at the front of the team, and happily blew and beat along the way to the gate of Old Man Lin's house.

There are not many people in the team, but it is very uncommon in this village, this big saffron sedan chair is generally used when a large family marries a wife, usually people set up an ox cart and donkey cart at most to meet, the carriage is more high-end than the ox cart and donkey cart, lower than the big saffron sedan chair, and it is considered to be a relatively wealthy family will use.
