Chapter Thirty-Eight: Pear Blossoms Bring Rain
As soon as he mentioned going to the county ya, the village chief's momentum weakened by two points, this is really going to make trouble to the county ya, but all the people in the county ya's eight townships know it, and her family Mei'er finally found the family affairs to blow again, and she has to be pointed at by others, so she softened her tone and said: "It's not necessary to go to the county ya, it's just that Mei'er's girl's family is not married, and only the two of them know the facts..."
"What I'm saying is the truth!" Qu Xiaomo was very tough
The village chief who was interrupted looked a little unsightly, and was silent for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly, and said, "That's it, just don't think it happened." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and explained to the villagers behind him: "You can't chew your tongue with others when you go out, otherwise you will be driven out of the village, do you hear it?" ”
Everyone nodded in response, and the village chief waved his hand and said, "Disperse, disperse." ”
Originally, he wanted to seek justice for his daughter against the Jin family, but things were different from what he knew from his daughter's mouth, and he also knew a thing or two about his daughter's temperament, and the Jin family was so tough, that Jin Gongzi was also indifferent, and he had to be fed to drink water, and he couldn't rely on him to despise his daughter.
When the village chief was about to go out, Qu Xiaomo looked at him and said faintly, "Village chief, I would like to advise you, your daughter should still look good, so as not to cause big trouble in the future." ”
When the village chief heard this, he glanced back at her, didn't speak, and turned his head away.
Seeing that everyone was astigmatized, Qu Xiaomo sat down, put the bowl on the ground, and came to Ge You to lie down, sighing: "Mom, it's too tiring to sprinkle." ”
Jin Yu looked at the bowl that the two of them had used together, and fell into deep thought.
Qu Xiaomo was still worried about what happened just now, and couldn't help but be indignant: "Who are these people, what kind of reputation does a notorious girl want, I don't want the reputation of my family's big shopkeeper, and I want to ask the teacher to ask for guilt, and go to his Spring and Autumn Dream." ”
Looking at Qu Xiaomo, who was still chattering, Jin Zhen suddenly smiled and said, "Didn't you say it, you are not afraid of crooked shadows, why bother with these people." ”
He was quite angry at first, but when Qu Xiaomo stood in front of him and protected him, the anger in his heart was dispelled.
Qu Xiaomo glanced sideways at him when he heard this, shook his fan and said, "That's it, it's just a fire, comfortable." ”
As soon as the words fell out of the courtyard, two sweaty people with flat shoulders rushed in, and when they saw that this was not Aunt Fang and Uncle Fang, they hurriedly got up and walked over and asked, "Why did Aunt and Uncle come back?" Busy with work in the fields? ”
The two of them glanced at the yard with a flat pole, and asked with their eyebrows, "What about them?" ”
"Gone."
Qu Xiaomo knew who they were asking, so he stretched out his hand and pulled the two of them in to sit down, poured two bowls of cold water, and said, "It's not a big deal, but I'm here to ask about yesterday's events." ”
As he spoke, he fetched water and soaked the handkerchief, handed it to them to wipe their faces, and then said: "On this hot day, I am in such a hurry to run for fear of heat stroke, so let's go when I have rested." ”
Earlier, she said that she paid for some money to hire someone to collect the field, but the two old men disagreed, saying that they were wasting the silver, and they had no choice but to let them work, but fortunately, the field was not much, just a few acres.
After the two elders sat down, they wiped their faces with a handkerchief, and Uncle Fang said: "Fang was in the field, and when I heard Sister-in-law Feng, who was picking pig vegetables in the village, I saw that the village chief came to you with a group of people to reason, so we rushed back, and it was too late to think about it." ”
"It's not a big deal, it's Zhou Mei's fault, let's take care of it, don't be afraid of him." When Qu Xiaomo saw that they had finished washing, he took a handkerchief and went outside to hang it, and poured water by the way.
Seeing that there was really nothing wrong, after resting for a while, he said hello to Qu Xiaomo and Jin Yu, and returned to the field with a flat shoulder.
As soon as this matter passed, Qu Xiaomo was not too relieved, and still helped Aunt Fang to take care of the yard and take care of Jin Zhen, five or six days have passed, this day Qu Xiaomo has just come back from buying something from the county seat, and after a long time after entering the house, he heard a burst of scolding from outside, and listened to the voice that seemed to be Zhou's sister-in-law, so he went out curiously to look outside the hospital.
I saw that on the barn not far from her house, Zhou's sister-in-law was scolding Qi with her waist, and she couldn't hear anything about the scolding when she was far away, only vaguely mentioning Zhou Mei, and couldn't help but twist her eyebrows slightly.
Jin Zhen, who was already able to walk around on his own, came out with a book in his hand, looked at the barn that was already surrounded by many people with his hands behind his back, and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
"Look at the excitement." Qu Xiaomo said with a smile: "I don't know how the village chief's family scolded Sister-in-law Qi, curious." ”
Today's wind is stronger than in the past, and the temperature has plummeted by a few degrees, Jin Yu is now weak, and the wind is not good, Qu Xiaomo looked at it for a while and beckoned him to enter the house, the medicine on the stove has been fried, poured out a bowl and said: "I will go to the county seat to get this medicine from the old doctor, does the big shopkeeper need to buy it?" ”
Jin Yu took the medicine bowl and blew it, thought for a moment and said, "Buy some pen and ink." ”
Qu Xiaomo responded, and then asked tentatively: "Big shopkeeper, when are we leaving?" ”
"I'll wait until I'm all right, this place is a good place to recuperate, remote, beautiful, and easy to find."
"That Youzhou... Still not going? Qu Xiaomo asked, do you really want to settle down here?
"Naturally, I want to go, but the time has not yet come."
Jin Yu drank the medicine one by one, handed her the bowl, and said, "Go and lie down, call me if you have something." ”
Qu Xiaomo took the bowl and went down, and watched him pull the curtain into the house before turning around to wash, what could he do except take care of him every day, and some eyes collided with him.
During the evening meal, Qu Xiaomo heard Aunt Fang talk about the quarrel in the afternoon barn field, it turned out that when Sister-in-law Qi and Sister-in-law Zhou were drying grain together, there was a quarrel over the boundary of the valley, which was not a big deal, but Sister-in-law Qi had long been unhappy with Zhou Mei, so she talked about the last incident intentionally or unintentionally, and the words were all sarcastic about Sister-in-law Zhou's lack of strictness in teaching her daughter, and Zhou Mei hooked up indiscriminately.
If you want to say that this mother can stand it, no matter how bad it is, it is her own child, so she quarreled with Qi's sister-in-law at the moment, and later hit it, thinking that it was Jin Zhen who made a fuss when he drank medicine.
This matter has nothing to do with them, but when Qu Xiaomo was about to go out to the county seat the next day, he just came out of the yard and saw Zhou Mei who had not appeared for many days.
At that moment, his face immediately pulled his face, and he wrinkled his eyebrows and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Aunt Fang was at home today, and when she heard the sound, she poked her head out, and saw that it was Zhou Mei who also had a cold face, stepped out of the door, and said, "Why did you come here, this girl?" Something? ”
Zhou Mei hesitated for a long time before burying her head and said, "I'm here to make amends to Jin Gongzi." ”
"No need, if you don't appear in front of my husband, it will be a thank you." Qu Xiaomo blocked the gate of the courtyard with a basket on her shoulder, preventing her from coming in.
Zhou Mei raised her eyes and glanced at her and lowered her eyebrows, with a hint of grievance, and said, "I'm here to find Jin Gongzi." ”
"I am his daughter-in-law who is marrying in the media, you tell me something, please get out if you have nothing to do, you don't need to make amends, because your father is the village chief and found so many strong men to ask for your reputation, I think it is the same whether you pay for this crime or not."
Qu Xiaomo didn't want to pay attention to her after speaking, turned his head to Aunt Fang and said, "Auntie, I'm going to the county seat, I bother you to take care of my husband, don't let any cats and dogs get close to him, so as not to be relied on again." ”
Aunt Fang responded: "Cheng, you go, I'll close the door and rest." ”
After speaking, he ignored Zhou Mei, turned around and entered the house, slammed the door, and locked it from the inside, and the golden sting who fell asleep after drinking the medicine didn't know.
Qu Xiaomo ignored Zhou Mei, who was standing, opened the fence door and went to the entrance of the village, but he didn't see the hatred in Zhou Mei's pupils that were cold behind her.
In the next few days, Zhou Mei would come over and want to see Jin Zhen on the grounds of reparation, Qu Xiaomo was so annoyed by her, and finally pulled Jin Zhen out to see her, looking at her coldly and saying all kinds of sorry words, if other men might still look at her and feel pity, but who is her big shopkeeper Jin Zhen? People who don't even have a room in the house, do you know what it means to be merciful and cherish jade?
Just looked at him with a cold face and looked at the crying Zhou Mei, his eyes glowing with cold light were full of impatience, Qu Xiaomo hugged his chest and stood up watching the show.
When Zhou Mei finished crying and finished talking a bunch of nonsense, she saw Jin Yu say coldly: "Are you finished?" When you're done, get out of here. ”
Zhou Mei, who was holding a handkerchief to wipe her tears, was slightly stunned when she heard this, and raised her red eyes in shock to look at Jin Yu's handsome face, don't all men like her appearance of pear blossoms with rain, even that Pei Gongzi, even if the man in front of him really doesn't look down on her, he shouldn't be so ruthless! Among many men, she can more or less understand the minds of men.
Seeing that the man in front of her was indifferent whether she was dedicated or pretending to be weak, Zhou Mei couldn't help but turn her eyes to look at Qu Xiaomo, who was watching the show on the side, is this woman prettier than her, so this man is not interested in her?
Zhou Mei stared at Qu Xiaomo for a long time before turning her head to look at Jin Zhen again, and said disregardlessly: "Jin Gongzi, Mei'er really likes you so much, she likes you from the first time she sees it, Mei'er doesn't want to marry you, she just wants to be by her son's side, whether she is a concubine or a slave." ”
As he spoke, he turned to Qu Xiaomo's body, his tone was pleading and pitiful, and said, "Please also ask Sister Jin to fulfill it." ”
Qu Xiaomo raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at Jin Zhen, with a playful smile on his lips, and said, "Husband, what do you say?" This week, the girl is in love with you for ten minutes. ”
Jin Zhen glanced at her coldly and said, "What if you like me?" I love you only, and if this man comes again, go out, and don't let me see it again. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the house, Zhou Mei shouted outside and didn't see this person turn around, Qu Xiaomo looked at Zhou Mei with a heartbroken face, the corners of her lips were hooked, slightly mocking, and said: "Miss Zhou, you are also a person who is married, so pestering a man is not afraid of the future husband's dissatisfaction?" ”
"You have to take care of it." Zhou Mei looked at the back of the golden sting and disappeared in the room, and immediately did not put on the face of the white lotus, and said to her with a ruthless face
