Chapter 178: The first time I left the village
Aoki's face turned red, and he looked helplessly at the room and laughed crookedly. Xindao, when we are married, let's see if you still say it.
Chrysanthemum also looked at the little stone and said with a smile: "Your mother must be joking, you just learn to talk about it." ”
Xiao Shi hurriedly said: "It's not a mile, it's my mother gossiping with Aunt Li, saying that our village will definitely develop in the future, and when the time comes, everyone will marry their daughters to our village, and the male babies in our village will eat fragrant." So, we have to hurry, 'the hand is fast, the hand is slow'. Aunt Li also said that her Xiaoyan will not marry in the future, but will look for it in the village, anyway, there are still many male babies in the village. Well, I also said that Brother Yang Zi is very good. ”
Everyone looked at Zhang Yang's stunned expression and laughed again.
Chrysanthemum really couldn't laugh, and she had forgotten all the messy thoughts just now; Liu Xiaomei and Jin Xiang couldn't hold back either, because they weren't at their own home before, they were still very gentle, and they were lying on their laps with a smile, which was very imageless.
Because they were sitting with a few small people, they went to see Zhang Yang while laughing.
Zhang Yang's little face turned red, and he said to Xiao Shi: "Is that still talking about you?" ”
Xiao Shigulu rolled his dark eyes and said to him seriously, "I didn't say anything. I'm younger than Sister Xiaoyan, so it's not suitable. ”
Zhang Yang pouted angrily and said: "That's nothing, isn't there a saying called 'female junior, hug gold bricks'." She's a few years older than you, and you're still cheap. ”
Before the stone could speak, the dog shook his head and said, "No." Stone, you must not marry Xiaoyan, otherwise you will suffer. ”
The crowd stopped laughing and looked at him strangely.
Liu Xiaomei asked stupidly, "Why?" Xiaoyan is not bad, and she is also diligent. ”
Goudan rolled his eyes and said, "You can just look at her braids, how much work does it take?" If you marry back. She combed her hair in the morning, where is there time to cook, isn't this a delay? The mother-in-law's family came to wash clothes and cook food, but not to look at her hair—can her hair fill her belly? ”
"Hahaha......" Everyone was amused by the dog again, and even Zheng Changhe was so happy to hide aside and laugh.
Chrysanthemum has smiled so much that she bends over with a handhapp, she can't stand up for a long time, and she doesn't dare to straighten up, if she looks up at this time. That face must be ugly to death, look at Liu Xiaomei and Jin Xiang are not just covering their faces and laughing.
Yang couldn't cry or laugh when he saw a room full of people smiling indecently.
Seeing that Xiaoshi listened to the dog's words and wanted to distinguish them, she was afraid that the little baby's mouth was not covered, and she would say something bad. Doesn't that affect Xiaoyan's reputation?
So he hurriedly stepped forward and said to the dog, "Don't talk about it." Shi Niang and Aunt Li are just talking and playing, you are just talking nonsense here, if your mother knows it, she should scold you. As he spoke, he turned to the crowd and asked, "Do you feel hungry?" Do you want me to warm something to eat? ”
Only then did everyone slowly stop laughing, and they all said that after tasting the food for a long time, they were not hungry, and asked Yang not to be busy.
Jin Xiang was tired of laughing, so she said goodbye to Chrysanthemum. Said he was going back to sleep.
Although Li Changyu wanted to stay, he couldn't tell his cousin, so he had to leave with them.
followed Liu Xiaomei and Liu Sanshun to say goodbye.
Zhang Huai also stood up and said, "It's time to go." Uncle Zheng, tomorrow and Aoki will go to my house for dinner at noon. ”
Zheng Changhe said with a smile: "Hey! Tell your father to prepare more wine. His words made Yang roll his eyes.
Xiao Shi told Chrysanthemum, saying that he would pick her up tomorrow and go over to see his sister; Goudan also said to Chrysanthemum that his sister Meizi asked Chrysanthemum Ming'er to come to his house to play.
Chrysanthemum smiled and agreed.
After everyone left, Chrysanthemum and Aoki sat in the fire bucket and didn't say a word yet. Thinking of Goudan's description of Xiaoyan, he laughed again.
Yang shook his head and said, "This baby doesn't have a door on his mouth." ”
Aoki pursed his lips and smiled: "How old is he, what do you know?" Whoever asked Aunt Li to say this would not avoid the stones. ”
After laughing for a while, Chrysanthemum said to Yang: "Mother, I am going to go with my brother to pay New Year's greetings to my grandmother in the second year of junior high school." Aoki blushed slightly as he listened.
Yang and Zheng Changhe were stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you want to go to grandma's house?" Don't you like going to your grandmother's house? ”
Chrysanthemum smiled: "It's not bad to look at this day." Go out for a run and take it as a breather. Besides, on the second day of junior high school, Lai Cai and his second aunt must have gone to his grandmother's house, and his uncle's house was quiet. ”
Yang just asked, she saw that Chrysanthemum really wanted to go. Not because of helplessness, he smiled and said, "Go, your grandmother must be very happy to see you going." Aoki, you and Uncle Cheng borrowed the oxcart for use tomorrow, otherwise it would be such a long way, and the chrysanthemum would not be able to walk. Anyway, our family also asked Li carpenter to make a car, and we will have a car in the future. ”
Zheng Changhe nodded and said, "I want to borrow a car, and the chrysanthemum can't walk." ”
Chrysanthemum saw that she went out on a trip, making her father and mother look like she was doing something, and she was very unhappy, so she said: "It's not far to Xiatangji, right?" I'm busy at home all day, and I'm not a person who doesn't walk, so let's go, it's still troublesome to get a car. ”
Aoki smiled at her and said, "It's not troublesome. Pull the cart with our own ox, and the cow is very docile. Don't underestimate such a little road, people who don't walk often think that they can't walk a mile old. ”
Chrysanthemum no longer shirked, she knew that her father and brother were afraid that they would wear a face towel and go out, and they would be easily looked at by people with strange eyes, and they would save people from looking at her by going out in the car.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Chrysanthemum also went out to mingle with Liu Xiaomei, Meizi and others for a day. In the second year of junior high school, early in the morning, Aoki borrowed an ox cart from the old family, and the brother and sister brought some pastries and other food, and drove to their grandmother's house.
This ox cart is very simple, but there is a carport made of bamboo branches on it, and the top is also nailed with wooden planks, which can shelter from the wind and rain, which can be regarded as an ancient Xiali. Chrysanthemum spread some hay into the car, and put a cotton mat on the grass, and after sitting on it, although it was still shaky, it was not so uncomfortable.
walked a long way, but saw Yang come out of the house, sent the chrysanthemum stove to her, and repeatedly told some words. She was extremely uneasy - her daughter had never been out of the house, if it weren't for the fact that she was only in the second year of junior high school today, she would have to go with her.
Chrysanthemum hurriedly reassured her, saying that she was not a little baby again, and she would not be bullied - wasn't her mother worried that she would be laughed at.
Yang is right to think about it, chrysanthemums are much bolder now, and they are not very afraid of people. Although she thought so in her heart, she still watched a pair of children gradually walk away with some reluctance, and when she got home, she was also looking forward to Chrysanthemum coming back quickly.
Chrysanthemum is in a good mood, coming here for more than a year, the first time out of Qingnan Village, can't help but look out of the car curiously, and talk to Aoki who is driving the car. The weather on this day was also good, a rare sunny day.
Aoki was also very happy to see that his sister had grown so big, and the first time he went out—not counting when he was a child—he pointed out to her the various paths and the names of the villages along the way, and said it dryly.
Chrysanthemum smiled and listened to Aoki's constant narration, seeing that the path ahead seemed to be a plain, and the vision was extremely open, and within the eye range, there were always trees and houses gathered together near and far, forming a village. As the ox cart moved, it gradually approached the Zhuangzi. I saw all kinds of dwellings with earthen houses or tiled houses, and a burst of roosters and dogs barked at the breath of life, and then the Zhuangzi was overtaken by them and left behind the car.
When he arrived at Xiatangji, Aoki specially slowed down, and went around to the "Fuxi Grocery Store" to show Chrysanthemum that this was his uncle's shop.
Chrysanthemum looked at the quaint town, and for a moment it was a little abrupt - it seemed to be very familiar. She seemed to see the drizzle of spring, the village girl and the villager woman with oil-paper umbrellas leisurely walking on the cramped bluestone streets, slowly strolling, becoming a part of the picture of the water town.
Aoki didn't give her much time to feel nostalgic, and he whipped the cow on his way. When he saw his grandmother's village, his heart couldn't help but be excited.
It's really strange, I've been here so much, why is it like I'm coming back today.
He didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly pointed to the chrysanthemum.
Chrysanthemum suddenly has the feeling of visiting relatives, the excitement and expectation of going to my grandmother's house when I was a child in my previous life, and the joy after arriving at the destination is the same as now.
Grandma really didn't expect that she would come, and the old man would be very happy.
Seeing that Chrysanthemum and Aoki were coming together, Wang was indeed overjoyed. The old man took the chrysanthemum in his arms, kept rubbing her shoulders and back with his rough palms, held a pair of small hands with his left hand, and asked her how long she had been on the road, whether it was cold or not.
She didn't care about Aoki, so she half-hugged and half-led the chrysanthemum and went into the house.
Aoki smiled and lifted the things out of the car, and tied the cow to a locust tree in the yard, and then carried the things into the door.
When I entered the house, I saw Wang holding her chrysanthemum eyebrows and smiling and still asking long and short questions, and said in her heart, Chrysanthemum is here, and my grandmother doesn't pay attention to herself.
Aoki made a rare joke with his grandmother: "Grandma, you won't pay attention to me when the chrysanthemum comes—didn't your old man see me just now?" ”
Chrysanthemum couldn't help but laugh when she saw his pretended resentment.
Wang Shi said happily: "I saw it, I saw it." Do you come often, my sister is the first time to come back, of course I will be very happy. ”
Seeing that the second uncle and the second aunt were not there, Chrysanthemum was also very happy and relaxed, and accompanied Aoki to talk a lot to her grandmother.
The old man moved out the melon seeds, peanuts and fried rice candy at home, grabbed two handfuls of black things and put them in front of Chrysanthemum, and said with a smile: "This is the dried jujube brought by the grandmother who came to make money." He was reluctant to eat it, and said that he would save it and eat it slowly. Otherwise, after all these days, he would have eaten it all. ”
Chrysanthemum saw that the jujube was not very good, and she was not very interested, but when she heard that her grandmother said that the boy who came to the rich was reluctant to eat, she hurriedly grabbed a few and handed two to Aoki.
She thought that it would be better to eat up the things that came to her wealth.
Aoki understood Chrysanthemum's thoughts very well, because he could see clearly that Chrysanthemum didn't want to eat it, and when he heard his grandmother say that it was something for wealth, he immediately reached out and grabbed it.
He chewed the dates a little funny, and looked at the chrysanthemums with joy. ()
