Chapter 3 Back to Xinghuagou
Du Yuniang flattened her mouth and almost cried, "I don't want to marry that short-lived ghost!" ”
"What nonsense!" Du Heqing's temper came up again.
As the saying goes, exposing people does not expose shortcomings.
Chi Yingjie's father died young, and when he died, he was only in his early twenties.
Li also looked at Du Yuniang with some disapproval, feeling that what she said was a bit heavy.
There was a water light in the corner of Du Yuniang's eyes, she sniffed, and said, "I didn't talk nonsense, my grandfather told me." ”
As soon as she said this, everyone in the room was stunned, and the three of them looked at each other without gasping.
Du Yuniang only said: "When I broke my head and got dizzy, I dreamed of my grandfather!" His old man told me in a dream that Chi Yingjie was short-lived, and I must not marry him. ”
Before Du's death, he was also a very prestigious figure in the village. The two brothers Du Heqing and Du Hepu respect their old father very much.
Li Shi was stunned for a while, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses and muttered: "Heqing, listen to your father, you didn't miss your father's words." ”
Du Heqing didn't quite believe in this statement, and asked tentatively, "Really? ”
Li Shi stretched out his hand and slapped Du Heqing twice, "This kind of thing can still be fake, your father is the rarest Yu Niang, he will definitely not care about other people's affairs, can he not care about Yu Niang's affairs?" ”
When Liu was pregnant with Du Yuniang, Du's father's health was already very poor. On the day of Liu's delivery, Du's father's situation was even more dangerous, and he fainted after spitting out a mouthful of blood, and even the doctor shook his head and asked them to prepare for the future.
But at this moment, Du Yuniang was born, and the loud cry of the baby woke up the unconscious Du father. After Du's father woke up, he was cured without medicine, his body got better, and he miraculously lived for several more years. It wasn't until Du Yuniang was seven years old that he was really out of oil and went west.
It is precisely because of this that Father Du and the Li family regard Du Yuniang as a treasure and personally raise her by their side, caring for and loving her in every way.
It can be said that Du's father's love for her has surpassed all the children of the Du family. Even the grandchildren of the Du family are added together, but they are not worth a Du Yuniang!
So the Li family believed Du Yuniang's words, but Du Heqing didn't think so.
He felt that his daughter had been spoiled by her father and mother, and she had a bad temperament since she was a child, so she might be lying in the name of her grandfather at this time!
"I don't believe it, can your grandfather know about this? Did he tell you anything else? "Anyway, Du Heqing just doesn't believe it.
Li glared at him and said angrily: "You have no conscience, you don't even listen to your father's words? ”
Du Heqing hurriedly said: "Mother, what the little girl says is nothing?" My dad has been gone for so many years, but he has ever dreamed of you! This kid is talking nonsense! ”
Li also hesitated when he heard his eldest son mutter.
The old man had been gone for five or six years, and he had never dreamed of her.
Du Yuniang said unconvinced: "Dad, if you don't believe it, I'll say one more thing!" This is what my grandfather told me in a dream, and no one in my family knows about it except my grandmother. ”
Du Heqing looked at the Li family and thought to himself that there were still some secrets in the family. At this time, Li's heart was beating a little chaotically.
There is indeed one thing in the family that others do not know.
Du Yuniangba's big little face was childish, but her eyes were clear and clean, and there was not even a trace of emotion.
She said: "My grandfather said that he was not surnamed Du. ”
Du Heqing didn't understand, what? If you don't have the surname Du, this kind of thing can also be said?
Li Shi's eyes widened, and he stepped forward excitedly and said, "Yu Niang, what else did your grandfather say?" ”
Du Yuniang said softly: "Grandfather has been sighing, saying that his biological father and mother can't be found." But his grandfather said that his adoptive father was very kind to him, so he was surnamed Du! Grandmother, is this true? ”
Li sighed, of course this is true.
Du Heqing is so big, the first time he heard of this kind of thing, he immediately glanced at his daughter-in-law. In the eyes of the husband and wife, there is an incredible gaze.
"Mother......
Li Shi waved his hand and only said: "It's nothing, I'll talk to you again when I have a chance in the future!" Top dog! The expression on her face became very serious, and she looked like she would not be allowed to be left alone.
"Alas! Mother. Du Heqing responded honestly.
"You also heard it, Yu Niang didn't lie, none of you brothers knew what she said, but Yu Niang knew! This proves that your father really doesn't agree with Yu Niang marrying into the Chi family, you, don't force the child, do you hear? ”
Du Heqing was a little embarrassed.
On the one hand, he wanted to believe in his daughter, and he didn't want her to marry a widow who didn't live long.
On the one hand, he didn't want to believe this, if Yingjie really had a good idea, wouldn't Brother Chi be the last one.
In the end, Du Yuniang's words of trust still affected Du Heqing's judgment.
"Dad, we didn't exchange tokens with the Chi family, it's just a verbal covenant, why bother!"
Du Heqing glared at her fiercely, a verbal appointment is also an appointment, how can you be a man without credibility!
Du Yuniang said again: "My grandfather can say that Chi Xiucai has only lived for more than half a year!" Otherwise, let's wait and see? Take the one-year period as an appointment, if within a year, Chi Xiucai does not die, then I will listen to you all. ”
This is a possible way to do it.
Du Heqing only said: "Talking counts!" ”
Du Yuniang nodded, "Hmm! I believe in grandfather. ”
Look at what he said, as if he didn't believe in his own Lao Tzu.
"Okay!" Du Heqing gritted his teeth and said, "It's up to you!" ”
Du Yuniang breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, the difficulty in front of her has finally passed. As long as the father is convinced, then no one can manipulate his marriage.
After making a fuss for most of the day, Du Yuniang was already a little exhausted, she felt that her eyelids were very heavy and she was very thirsty.
Li Shi hurriedly brought the bowl of medicine at the head of the bed and said, "Yu Niang, drink the medicine and go to sleep." ”
Du Yuniang reluctantly opened her eyes, drank the medicine, and didn't care that there was still a bitter taste in her mouth, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Li and Liu flattened Du Yuniang and covered her with a quilt.
Du Heqing had something to ask Li, and as soon as he said the word "mother", he was waved by Li and rushed to the outhouse.
"Mother, I, what Yu Niang said is true? Our family really doesn't have the surname Du? ”
Li nodded and instructed him: "I'll talk about this later, you can take your daughter-in-law back to Xinghuagou!" Remember your daddy's words! Yu Niang's family affairs, can't be settled like this, if you let me know that you dare to promise the Chi family's marriage behind my back, see if I don't pick your skin! ”
Du Heqing shrunk his neck and said, "Hey, I remember!" ”
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still dark, the couple drove the ox cart out of Taoxi Town and returned to Xinghuagou.
