Chapter 20: Repentance
Kubuckwheat Village, Sanhe Town, is several miles away from Rotten Peach Village, Qixia Town, and they are all rugged and difficult mountain roads, Yuzhi got into the carriage early in the morning, stumbled all the way, and when she arrived at the entrance of Rotten Peach Village, she was stuffy, hot, thirsty and hungry and almost fell asleep.
Liu Er was delicate, and before the welcoming team entered the village, he first asked everyone to stop, and then arranged for red ginseng to send food and drink to the jade branches in the sedan chair.
When he set off into the village again, Yuzhi, who was finally in a lot of energy, sat in the sedan chair and couldn't help but open the curtain of the car curiously to look at it.
Compared with Tartary Buckwheat Village, where Yuzhi has lived for three years, the Rotten Peach Village under the jurisdiction of Qixia Town also looks very poor, and it is sparsely populated.
When he came to Liu Er's door, Yuzhi found that almost all the villagers had gathered at Liu Er's house.
Like the rest of the village, Liu's family lives in low thatched huts, with the only difference being that his yard is surrounded by earthen walls.
The huge courtyard was full of banquets, and a dozen old houses of different heights were connected together, and although there was joy everywhere, poverty could not be concealed.
Yuzhi was puzzled in his heart, and said secretly: "Liu Er is the owner of Heifeng Village, why is his family so embarrassed?" Also, shouldn't he marry me back to Black Wind Mountain? Could it be that this is the Black Wind Village where everyone talks about the tiger's color change? Isn't that shabby? ”
Yuzhi was stunned, and Red Ginseng had already lifted the curtain of the car and happily helped her out of the car.
Yuzhi couldn't help but whisper the doubts in his heart.
Red Ginseng also whispered: "Sister Yuzhi, don't you know, this is the second master's hometown, the second master's father and mother usually live here, and my hometown Xinghua Village is not far away." And Heifeng Village is located on the Black Wind Mountain ten miles away, where the mountains are steep and fierce beasts are rampant, and it is estimated that the second master is reluctant to let you suffer in the past. ”
Yuzhi had heard red ginseng say yesterday that Liu Er's family had a complex population, including Liu Er, there were four brothers and sisters, Liu Er's father Liu Lao'er, mother Ma, and grandmother Shangguan were all still alive.
Liu Er's eldest brother had married a wife more than ten years ago, his wife Wu, and the two had a son named Taiping.
Liu Er has a younger sister below, known as Liu Sanmei, who is a few years older than Yuzhi and is about to be married.
In addition, the Liu family also has a young son named Liu Si, Liu Si is a slight reader in the area of Rotten Peach Village, and he was renamed Liu Gongsheng in the examination a few years ago.
According to Red Ginseng, Liu Gongsheng fell in love with Li Lanhua, the daughter of Li Dashan's family in the town, and Liu Lao'er was planning to come to the door to say goodbye.
Thinking that she would live under the same roof with nearly ten people from the Liu family, Yuzhi couldn't help but feel a little stunned, after all, what she had experienced in the Zhao family in the past three years had caused a lot of shadows on her.
In the confusion, under the red hijab, she saw that Liu Er had already greeted her with a smile and took her hand, and she couldn't help but become more and more cramped.
Liu Er seemed to feel something, and whispered before taking her hand to worship heaven and earth: "Miss Yuzhi, don't worry, as long as I am here, no one will let you suffer the slightest grievance, not even my biological parents." ”
Above the high hall, Liu Lao'er and his wife Ma Shi were full of red light and smiles, looking obviously better than Zhao Sanjin and his wife.
Next, Liu Er went to greet the relatives and friends who came to congratulate him, and Yuzhi was supported into the cave house by red ginseng according to local customs.
At this time, it was already dark, and Yuzhi was hungry and thirsty, so she arranged for red ginseng to find something to eat, and then took care of herself and lifted the red hijab and sat on the edge of the bed, panting heavily.
It didn't take long for the closed door to be pushed open from the outside, and someone came with two plates of food, wearing a rare goose yellow dress, tall and good-looking.
Looking at Yuzhi with a cramped face, she smiled and said generously: "Second sister-in-law, don't be nervous, my name is Liu Sanmei, and I am your sister-in-law." ”
Secretly letting down her guard, Yuzhi hurriedly smiled and said, "You are Liu Er's sister, you look so good." ”
Liu Sanmei put the food on the table, and said softly: "The second sister-in-law is really a flower and a moon, and the country is beautiful, no wonder my second brother will insist on marrying you in the door despite the opposition of his father and mother." ”
Yuzhi's heart couldn't help but chuckle suddenly, and the smile on her face became unnatural.
Liu Sanmei politely greeted Yuzhi to eat while continuing to say quietly: "But I think my second brother's vision is very good, you are much more beautiful than the cousin of the county master's family." If I were the second brother, I would not hesitate to regret my marriage in order to marry you. ”
