CHAPTER XVI
"Changlin, have you bought an ox cart?" Under the tree at the entrance of the village, there are a lot of idle chattering people gathered every day, and when they saw the Su brothers rushing back two ox carts today, they asked curiously.
"Well, hehe......" Su Changlin was stared at uncomfortably by many pairs of eyes, and after a vague response, he threw up the reins in his hand and entered the village with a shout.
When he arrived at the door of his house, Su Jinghang jumped out when he heard the movement, and excitedly circled around the ox after knowing that the family had bought a new ox cart. "Little sister, this cow is so well-behaved, you see that I don't move when I touch it."
"Brother, remember to wash your hands when you're done touching it." Looking at Su Jinghang's posture in September, he didn't plan to stop for a while.
Su Changsheng and Daddy Su unloaded the ox cart, and Yun Niang also came out to help take the things home one by one. "Jiu'er, our family buys an ox cart, do you know?" Yun Niang came to September with her things and asked.
"I don't know, it's a good thing, grandpa won't say anything." September explained with a smile.
"Mother, is that person awake?" In September, when I smelled the smell of Chinese medicine wafting from the kitchen, I remembered that there was a sick number at home.
"I woke up for a while, drank the medicine and fell asleep again. Jiu'er, I don't think that boy is like an ordinary child..."
"Mother, don't make a noise about this in advance, no matter what, you have to wait until he gets better. The bedding at home has to be changed, I bought a lot of cotton, and a few pieces of cloth, so I might as well ask Aunt Zhao next door to help. The child's clothes...... Let's make it according to my father's size. September didn't want to discuss the person's affairs too much, so he quickly diverted Yun Niang's attention.
Yun Niang didn't think much about it, she thought about it and responded. "Then I'll go to your Aunt Zhao's house tomorrow."
"Mother, I invited Sun Xiucai to come to the house for dinner, right? A teacher for one day and a father for life, my brother must always have an apprenticeship, right? “
"You girl...... Why can you worry so much? Don't worry, your father came over in the morning and gave orders, and he invited Sun Xiucai to come to our house for dinner in the evening. Yun Niang pinched September's little face in disgust.
"Hey...... I'm not afraid to forget..." September rubbed his face embarrassedly.
"Slept so late last night? Do you want to catch up on sleep? Yun Niang asked.
"Don't go yet. Mother, do you want to discuss one thing? September hugged Yun Niang's arm, ready for a while, if Yun Niang disagreed, she would be coquettish or something.
"You girl, who knows if it's been discussed or decided. Say, I'll listen! Yun Niang deliberately kept a straight face and didn't look at September.
"Just lend me another ten taels of silver." After September whispered, she secretly checked Yun Niang's face, and saw that there were no major fluctuations, so she was a little relieved. Without waiting for Yun Niang to open her mouth, she said that she wanted to buy land and prepare to build a house in the future!
Yun Niang's unexpected support this time, and the excited September almost jumped up and kissed her own mother.
"Mother, you're so nice, then I'll go find my father......" After saying that, he jumped out.
Su Changsheng and Su Changlin were building a shed for the cows, and they went to Su Jinghang's house in September. Changing into coarse cloth clothes can't stop the temperament of the people on the kang, the delicate mouth, the handsome nose... The more you look at it, the more perfect it becomes. September couldn't help but take a few more looks... After coming back to his senses, he despised himself from the inside out again before focusing on the sprouts in the shadows in the corners. After watering it once, he went back to the main house. Yesterday, September had already handed over the method of settling the fish money to everyone to Su Changsheng, and this time it was no longer an afterthought, but directly settled in person. So after this is free in September, I plan to get a good night's sleep and make up for last night's sleep.
September had a dream. In the rental house of her previous life, she sat on the edge of the bed holding her photo frame, and her heart ached. Suddenly, I felt that my eyes were blurry, large tears fell on the photo frame, my heart hurt more and more, and I felt that I was about to suffocate in September... She wanted to wipe the warmth from her eyes, but her body was uncontrollable, and she muttered, "Yueyue, my Yueyue... September was shocked, this voice... How is her voice??
"Woo ......" Suppressed cries. The overwhelming sadness is mixed with remorse...... Why? I would be so sad.
"Xiaofang, I packed Yueyue's things, you ...... Don't cry. "The voice from the door was so familiar, how could she not be familiar? For the past twenty years, this voice has always cared about itself... This is his dad... But Dad just called himself "Xiaofang"? Yes, she should have thought of it a long time ago, isn't this familiar and unfamiliar voice her own mother?
"Myself" stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and looked at the person at the door, "It seems that he has suddenly aged a lot, his face is covered with dust, his beard is very long, his lips are so dry that it seems to be bleeding, and his hair is actually half white." Is this still the image-oriented dad? September watched silently, and the sourness in his heart was even worse.
"Myself" couldn't help crying again, and I couldn't stand the pain in my heart in September. She tried to shout, "Don't cry...... after shouting, it seemed that there was really no crying, and her heart didn't seem to be so sad. When I opened my eyes slowly, I was still greeted by the tattered roof...... Is this a dream? Or did you just wear it back again? September sat up sharply.
Only then did she find that two people sitting on the edge of the kang were looking at her intently, one of them had red eyes and had obviously cried. These two people are Yun Niang and Aunt Zhao next door.
"You kid, scare me..."Yun Niang patted her heart and let out a sigh. September smiled at Aunt Zhao embarrassedly, it turned out that Aunt Zhao's daughter, Su Hongyu, had been married into her husband's family for more than two years, and her stomach had not moved, Su Hongyu's mother-in-law was a pungent person, she regarded her daughter-in-law as inappropriate, and instigated her son to often punch and kick Su Hongyu. Aunt Zhao didn't know where she heard the news that Su Hongyu was killed by her mother-in-law's family, and learned that the family had bought a new ox cart in September, and borrowed the ox cart to let Su Da Niu and Huzi go to pick people up and take them back to their parents' house. The relationship between the two families is close, and Daddy Su followed without saying a word. No, just now Aunt Zhao was complaining to Yun Niang, and she was scared by September's babbling.
"Your sister Hongyu hurt you when she was a child, and when you were a child, your father and mother went to the field, and it was your sister Hongyu who took you. Comb your hair, and if you have something delicious, I'll always leave you a copy, alas... Why did such a good girl suffer such a great crime? Yun Niang's eyes were red as she spoke.
September didn't have much impression of Su Hongyu, but listening to Yun Niang's tone, Su Hongyu was really good to the original body, thinking that she could help the poor girl as much as possible in the future.
"Mother, the meat you bought back today, you cut two catties and let Aunt Zhao go back to make two delicious meals for Sister Hongyu, and a few eggs I bought a few days ago to make up for Sister Hongyu." September's leftover meat was intended to be used for Yun Niang to boil lard, but it seems that there won't be much left this time.
How do you know that Aunt Zhao cried even more fiercely when she heard it, and she was stunned for a moment in September, is this too little? Secretly thinking about what else was at home, I heard Aunt Zhao choke up and said, "Jiu'er, my aunt remembers your heart, and when your sister Hongyu comes back, my aunt will bring her to thank you." In September, I realized that I had thought too much, and most of the people in the village were mainly coarse grains, and I didn't see meat a few times a year. Two catties of meat are worth several days of food for ordinary people.
After sending Aunt Zhao away, Yun Niang simply made two light dishes and boiled half a pot of white rice porridge, and asked September to bring a copy to Su Jinghang's house.
Gu Chenye has been awake for a long time, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his ears and eyes are much better than ordinary people, just now Aunt Zhao woke him up by crying in the main house, and the wound was tightly bandaged with medicine, and his whole body hurt when he moved. He just listened with his eyes closed. He knew that the girl that day had finally saved him, and according to his observations, the family were all helpless croppers, so he took off his guard and recuperated with peace of mind.
When September came in, he saw Gu Chenye closing his eyes and putting down the plate in his hand. shouted "It's time to eat...... Seeing that the man didn't respond, he stretched out his finger and poked the man's shoulder, but there was still no response!! The devil's claws moved to his face, ready to pinch his nose, "I don't believe you can still sleep......"
As soon as she was about to start, she felt a dark stab in her neck. Subconsciously withdrew his hand, and looked at her coldly with a pair of dark eyes, at this time, he didn't have the heart to appreciate the peerless beauty or anything in September. It's terrible, isn't it, what is a murderous look? That's what you're looking for!!
"Well, I see on your nose... Yes... There's ash, wipe it for you..."September is. Quail like a neck shrunk! Just when she was on her back, there was a small "coo... Goo..." There was a sound in the quiet cabin, and September was so frightened that he quickly covered his stomach!
"Hey, it's not me..." When I looked up, the people on the kang were full of discomfort, and the flush at the root of my ears made September's heart bloom at the moment. Sample, see if you still dare to murder me...... With a smile, he picked up the porridge, stirred it with a spoon, and took a deep breath. With a look of intoxication, he said, "It smells so good..."
Gu Chenye's hand secretly clenched tightly, and he felt the urge to pinch this person to death, but the protest in his stomach began again!! Slowly sat up with the pain all over his body.
September saw that this person looked painful for fear that the wrapped wound would crack again, so he quickly put down the bowl and helped him find a comfortable position to sit down. It was finally rescued, and this dead person will make trouble for others, and the money for healing is what she has earned with great difficulty.
After the accusation, he picked up the bowl and scooped a spoonful of porridge and fed it to the man's mouth. Gu Chenye paused, his deep eyes flashed, and he drank a whole bowl of porridge in September. September calmed down and coaxed, and cautiously glanced at the man, who had no focus in his eyes and no expression on his face. After thinking about it, I still plan to apologize, lest this person hold a grudge, and he will make a big fuss when he kills people in the future.
"That's... I just... I'm afraid your wound is serious... Don't take it personally. After stumbling through the sentence, September secretly glanced at it again and saw that the man did not react. Gritted his teeth, "I often hear the old man say that good medicine is good for disease, and good words are good for ...... ears, let me tell you, I am a hard worker."
September wanted to talk about it at length, but I heard the man say "Thank you......"
"......?"
