143 Difficulties (1)
Hua Rui and they had just finished lunch, and when they saw her coming, Hua Rui pulled Miao into the house, and the mother and daughter still had something to say alone. After a while, Hua Rui came out, got into the ox cart, and the aunt and sister-in-law went back to the town together. On the way, Lin Dongxian repeatedly told Hua Rui not to tell Youyou about Lin Jue's marriage, saving him from thinking nonsense. Hua Rui wanted Miao to go to Liu Chan's house to propose marriage and tell her to her second brother to be her daughter-in-law, but Miao glanced at her immediately, shook her head and refused.
She asked again and again, and Miao said that she went to propose marriage, but unfortunately was rejected by Wang. just dislikes that their family is not as rich as their family, and wants to marry Liu Chan to a rich family, why should she go again! The flowers and trees are not bad, why can't you marry a good girl.
That's right, the second brother doesn't like to talk on weekdays, but he is very careful, and he won't put words of concern on his lips. After returning to the house, Hua walked in front of Wang Mingyi, and she yelled at Hua without raising her head: "Don't talk about me again, I don't want to hear it." She thought that Hua Shi would come to accuse her and dare not talk nonsense, but Hua Shi sat on the edge of her bed, so frightened that she hurriedly moved to the left, and then raised her head to look at her in confusion.
Hua's black and white eyes burst out with a blazing luster, full of anticipation: "You said that Dong Xian didn't come back overnight, is it true?" "Of course it's true, do I have to lie to you?" Wang Mingyi sat upright, her eyes were gloomy, and the half-inch-long nails in her sleeves pierced her palms, but she didn't expect what she said, Zhao and Hua didn't believe it, and they favored Lin Dongxian.
Hua Shi tugged at the corners of his mouth and said with a sneer: "I didn't say that you lied to us, just now in front of grandma, I can't help you." But are you really sure she didn't come back overnight? Did you see what she was carrying in her hand just now? This question stunned Wang Mingyi, and she shook her head with a slight frown: "I don't know about this, I haven't seen it clearly, but it seems that it shouldn't be light." ”
I could clearly feel her panting, but I knew that she hadn't returned all night, and I just didn't know where she went? It's just that Hua Shi asked, did she know something, and before Wang Mingyi could ask, Hua Shi had already gotten up and left. Back in town, Hua Rui had just gotten off the ox cart, and Lin Dongxian didn't even say hello to Lin Zhiping, so she went directly to Lin Jue to pick you up.
Hua Rui brought the Chinese cabbage and green vegetables that Miao gave her, but their family didn't have them, and it was rare for her daughter to come back, so Miao had to prepare some for her. Otherwise, it will make the people of the in-laws' family gossip, after all, when Hua Rui came back, the Wu family prepared several pieces of silk and a large piece, which was ten catties of pork, enough to eat for a long time. Miao Shile couldn't close his mouth, of course, he had to give some return gifts.
Youyou squatted down, raised his head and looked at Lin Jue with a smile, and when he heard someone call him, he immediately turned around. He got up and ran to Lin Dongxian: "Sister, you're back." "Hmm!" Lin Dongxian stretched out her hand and gently touched the melon seeds on his head, her two big eyes were dark and dark, which was very flattering. Knowing that Lin Dongxian came to take Youyou away, a trace of reluctance flashed in Lin Jue's eyes, he had just stayed with him for two days and was about to leave.
Lin Dongxian urged Youyou to wait for her on the ox cart, and she had to say a few words to Lin Jue alone. He nodded obediently and left, holding a bag of pastries brought to him by Lin Dongxian in his hand. "Big brother, when are you going to go back?" Lin Dongxian did not hesitate at all, and asked directly, Lin Juezheng was momentarily surprised, and his surprised expression flashed, when will he go back, why don't he want to go back.
Seeing that Lin Jue's face was slightly pale, she turned a blind eye and continued: "Big brother, this is not a way, you and Miss Wang are already married, it is best to get along with her, as for Sister Xue, you should keep her in your heart." Don't worry about it, just let him live in our house. He took the opportunity to persuade Lin Jue to forget about the Xue family and live a good life with Wang Mingyi, although he was framed by Wang Mingyi in the morning.
None of this mattered, Lin Dongxian said while paying attention to Lin Jue's expression, seeing a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, her heart tightened, it didn't seem that simple. "Dong Xian, I know that you are for my good, but I can't decide many things. As for Yoyo, when I buy a house in the town, I will take him over and take care of him, and now I still need to bother you to take care of it for me, this is a tael of silver, you take it first! ”
Lin Jue took out the silver from his sleeve and handed it to her, Lin Dongxian quickly grimaced and shook her head: "Big brother, what are you doing, didn't I tell you, I don't want your money." If you see you like this, I won't take you back. We all treat him as a family, big brother, you can take back this money, just now I didn't say that I want to buy a house in the town and take him over, it will cost money.
If you give me money from time to time, when will you be able to buy a house in town? Besides, eldest brother, you and Miss Wang are already married, if you want to take care of Youyou, you must negotiate with her. "She said everything she had to say, and it was up to him to hear it or not. Lin Jue lowered his head and lowered his eyes, he couldn't see his expression clearly, Lin Dongxian didn't continue to delay, and was ready to take Youyou away. Along the way, Yoyo drooped his little head and didn't speak lifelessly.
Lin Dongxian knew that he was reluctant to leave Lin Jue, but he had no choice, he had to accept this reality. The ox cart slowly stopped at the door, Lin Dongxian quickly jumped off the ox cart, stretched out her hand to him, and said cordially: "Youyou, come down, I'm home." Only then did he come to his senses and said weakly: "Sister, I know." ”
Silently hung his head and followed Lin Dongxian in, this kid, Lin Dongxian said a lot of things that didn't work, let him experience it himself. Because he couldn't sleep in the same room with Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingyue, as soon as he finished eating, Youyou went back to the house alone to rest. Wu didn't say anything about this, but saw that Hua Rui left, so he slowly asked, "Where did you come from this wild boar?" ”
His brow furrowed, as if he was suspicious of something. Lin Dongxian glanced at Lin Zhiping inadvertently, only to see him shake his head quietly, his heart tightened at the moment, and then said with a smile: "Mother, where else did this come from, I picked it up from the back mountain!" "Nonsense, what to do when you go to the back mountain, you have to cherish your reputation as a girl, pay attention to your words and deeds, and forget what I teach you on weekdays!"
Wu was stunned when he heard this, and a sharp light flashed in his clear eyes, which made Lin Dongxian feel cold in his back. At this moment, there is only a family of three, Zhou Mingyue has not come back, Mrs. Zhou sent a maid to deliver a letter, she will come over early tomorrow morning, since she has gone back, Mrs. Zhou will keep her for one more day. Lin Zhiping coughed unnaturally a few times, and just as he was about to speak, he was glanced at by Wu: "You shut up for me, don't you help her speak." ”
Lin Zhiping handed Lin Dongxian a helpless look, she could only ask for more blessings, and he couldn't do anything. What stimulated the Wu family, isn't it necessary to be so excited after receiving Zhou Mingmu's wild boar? However, looking at her expression, it is better to admit her mistake first and coax the Wu family to talk.
So Lin Dongxian pursed her mouth, made a look of crying, got up and walked to her side to hold Wu's arm, and swayed coquettishly: "Mother, I know it's wrong, and I will definitely not go to the back mountain alone in the future." If you are angry, your father and eldest brother will scold me, mother, come, eat a bun. With a flattering smile, he took a bean paste bag and handed it to Wu's hand, and Lin Dongxian admitted her mistake in a low voice.
Wu Shi was not squirming and angry, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said slowly: "You can be obedient in front of you, and you will no longer go to the back mountain alone?" There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, I don't know which sentence this girl said is true and which is false? There are many dangers in the back mountains, there are often fierce beasts infested, I really can't imagine, in case she encounters danger alone, there is no way to ask for help, but what should I do?
She didn't want Lin Dongxian to have an accident, and her family was not short of money to buy wild boars. Finally coaxed the Wu family into the house, Lin Dongxian suddenly sat on the chair with a weak body, and then Lin Zhiping suddenly came over: "Are you going to find Zhou Mingmu again?" I saw him gritting his teeth and staring at her, "Dad, don't talk nonsense, what am I looking for Zhou Mingmu for?" Lin Dongxian raised her eyebrows slightly, "Dad, do you want me to go to him?" ”
Seeing that Lin Zhiping didn't squeak, she continued. "It's better if you don't, I tell you, if I know, you still have contact with him, see that I don't break your legs." After Lin Zhiping finished speaking angrily, he threw off his sleeves and left, leaving a table of dishes and chopsticks for her to clean up. What did you say, kindly brought wild boars back to give them a taste, but no one said anything good, and they were all pointing at her.
Hey, Lin Dongxian sighed silently, washed the dishes and chopsticks, and wiped the table clean with a cotton cloth before going back to the house to rest. In fact, Hua Rui didn't fall asleep at all, and when she heard a noise outside, she leaned against the door and pricked up her ears to listen for a long time. Zhou Mingmu, who is he? The people in the village, she doesn't seem to have heard of it, and when she goes back to her parents' house and asks Miao, she will definitely know.
In the early morning of the next day, Mama put the food on the table, and Mrs. Zhou sat at the table and waited for Zhou Mingyue to come over. After a while, she wore a lake-green autumn coat, which lined her skin like snow. There is a pearl belt around his waist, which is wrapped casually, but he looks as thin as a willow, and only lightly hooks his eyebrows. The hair was only gently pulled up, and a circle of pearl hairpins was inserted, leaving a strand on each side of the cheek. The ends of the hair are slightly curled, natural and lively, highlighting the delicate face shape of Rongyin, and the whole outfit is casual but dignified.
Ran quickly to Mrs. Zhou's side and held her arm affectionately: "Mother." "You girl has become a master, and you are still so unruly." Mrs. Zhou pretended to glare at her angrily, but she raised her eyebrows slightly: "Mother, there are no outsiders here, only me and my mother, why be formal." Besides, I haven't had breakfast with my mother for a long time, and my mother reprimanded me as soon as I came. ”
Then he drooped his little face, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. Mrs. Zhou pulled the corners of her mouth, laughed, and reached out to point the tip of her nose: "I really don't know what to say about you, sit down, I ordered the kitchen to make your favorite Ruyi cake, as well as hemp balls, sit down and eat it while it's hot." Zhou Mingyue sat down with a smile and began to eat, but she was not so happy when she was eating.
Mrs. Zhou sandwiched a hemp ball to her, "What's the matter, it's not to taste, isn't it?" "No, it's still made by the previous chef, why doesn't she like to eat it. Zhou Mingyue didn't care, and blurted out: "It's not as delicious as the godfather's house." After saying that, she realized something, and coughed a few times unconsciously, trying to cover up the past. Godfather, Mrs. Zhou's thin eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes were gloomy, who did she recognize as her godfather?
This matter can't be left just like that, you must ask clearly. Zhou Mingyue quickly put down the chopsticks, "Mother, I'm going to eat, you eat slowly, I'll go first, and when it's over, I'll come back to see you." After eating, she wanted to grease the soles of her feet and slipped away, how could it be so easy. Mrs. Zhou slapped the table vigorously: "Wait, you stop me, I didn't let you go, who is your godfather?" ”
"Mother, no one, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously." Zhou Mingyue said against her will, she couldn't let her know, otherwise she would have been angry and ignored her for a long time. And I'm afraid that I can't leave the Ruyi embroidery workshop today, I blame her for this mouth, I have to say it, now it's okay, I'm sweating behind it. But Mrs. Zhou's dark and narrow eyes stared at her.
She had to turn around slowly, tugged at the corners of her mouth, smiled brightly, and raised her hand: "Mother, there is really no one who is my godfather, I just said it casually, really, if you don't believe it, I can swear to God!" "I want to swear, Mrs. Zhou has been staring at her intently, knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, can she not know the daughter she gave birth to? Zhou Mingyue didn't think it was nonsense, but she just secretly recognized who she was a godfather with.
If you don't ask clearly, let her go, I don't know how long she has been in the dark? Mrs. Zhou stared at her to see how long she was going to pretend. Zhou Mingyue didn't expect Mrs. Zhou to stop without telling her, she really wanted her to swear, so how can she do it! Quick calculations in your mind, thinking about rhetoric. This mouth can't wait to slap a few times, let you talk nonsense, let you talk nonsense, it's useless to regret the intestines.
Words are like water spilled out, and it is difficult to collect them. There was no way, she had to walk up to Mrs. Zhou coquettishly and help her beat her back affectionately, "Mother, what I said is true, I don't have a godfather, absolutely not!" "Why, aren't you going to swear? When you swear an oath, you can leave, or you won't want to walk out of this door today! "Mrs. Zhou is categorical, she can do it.
Zhou Mingyue knows this very well, what to do now, lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot. Zhou Mingyue's face was slightly pale when she heard this, and the handkerchief in her hand was twisted into twist by her. On the contrary, the corners of Mrs. Zhou's mouth slightly rippled with an imperceptible smile, and in a flash, Zhou Mingyue wanted to fight with her, but she was still tender! Lin Dongxian looked anxiously at the door, waiting for Zhou Mingyue to come over, the girls were almost here.
Why hasn't she come here yet, shouldn't she have overslept? Wu hurriedly walked over, "I'll ask your sister-in-law to help watch the girls first, or you can go to the Ruyi Embroidery Workshop to see if Miss Zhou has something to delay?" "This can only be the case now, fortunately the Bai family, the Lian family, and Chunyu are here, otherwise they would really be too busy.
