Chapter 246: Helper
After Rokuro said this, he entered the room with a smile on his face, leaving He Mai staring straight at his back from the window of the stove room.
He Mai wrinkled his nose and muttered, "What are you talking about, weird."
In the house, Xia Hua tried her best to leave her sister Chunhua in the house to talk to He Lin, but she jumped into the stove room to help He Mai and Shancao make lunch.
"Brother He Lin came back this time, and he seems to be more interested in Chunhua," Xia Huazui was not idle, and the kitchen knife in his hand quickly cut the tofu into thin slices, "Sister Hemai, Sister Shancao, you say, can he and my sister succeed?" ”
Shancao looked at the wheat, pursed his lips and said, "You want me to see it...... In all likelihood! Chunhua girl really likes Brother Helin, look at those eyes, as long as Brother Helin is there, she will never look around! ”
He Mai smiled and asked: "When I was about to get home, I heard a few of you shouting in the yard about what treasures, Xia Hua, Spring Flowers, what treasures did you take, so mysterious?"
"Alas, it's a set of head-to-toe clothes made for Brother He Lin, and four pairs of shoes!" Xia Hua said, with a hint of distress and melancholy in her words, "She has been following the devil for more than two months, and she went to get the clothes after finishing her housework, I persuaded her, why are you in such a hurry to catch up with the clothes?" Her hands were pricked with needles several times, but she didn't let go! ”
Shancao exclaimed, "Speaking of which, Brother He Lin is going to try it in the township this year?" I don't know how to prepare? ”
"I believe my brother, you can't be wrong." He Mai kneaded his dough and said firmly.
Xia Hua sighed a little sadly, "When Brother He Lin goes to catch the exam, I don't know what Chunhua will be missing...... In our family, I'm afraid that there will be another person who will suffer from lovesickness! ”
Another person in the family who suffers from lovesickness is naturally missing Xu Jiang like illness.
He Mai and Shancao kept their mouths shut, and neither of them wanted to say anything more about this matter. Once you don't say it well, I'm afraid it will make Xia Hua cry again.
After a while, He Mai asked Xia Hua: "Xia Hua, are you busy this time?" ”
"Fortunately, I'll catch up with the harvest after a while, I'm afraid I'll have to be busy." Xia Hua replied and asked her, "Sister Hemai, what's wrong?" ”
"That's it, didn't I open a porridge bun shop? It's in Xiao City, Qinglu Village, you know? Business is still booming these days, and only Li Changan and I are helping out in the stall, which is really a bit of a shortcoming. You see, if you wish, how about going to my stall and helping out for breakfast, two pennies a month? ”
Xia Hua opened her mouth wide, as if she didn't expect such news.
"Really? Sister Hemai? Xia Hua's reddened little face was reflected by the fire of the stove, and there was a light of surprise, "Can I really go to your stall to help?" Are you kidding me? ”
"What are you doing to tease you?" He Mai smiled, put down the vegetable pot in his hand, and said solemnly to Xia Hua, "It's true, the business on the stall, Li Changan and I can't take care of it, I thought of you first." ”
Xia Hua didn't know how to react for a while, nodded her head again and again, and couldn't say anything.
"You don't have to answer me in a hurry, after a while, you are busy with farming, you have something in the field at home, if you have any work, I am afraid that you will not be able to spare it for a while, so you go back to think and think first, discuss with your family, if you can come, then I will wait for you, how about it?"
Xia Hua was originally excited to agree to help at Hemai's stall now, but after thinking about it left and right, Hemai was thoughtful.
After a while, it is the busy season of farming, the father and mother of the family are very busy, the housework and vegetable garden at home have to be taken care of, laundry, cooking, feeding pigs, this is all tiring work, she and her sister Chunhua do it on weekdays, barely busy. Could it be that as soon as she let go, she went directly to Hemai's stall to help, and ignored the family's stall?
Thinking about this, Xia Hua also calmed down a little, but she still said to He Mai a little excitedly: "Sister Hemai, you still think about it thoroughly!" Yes, then I will go back to the house and ask, and discuss it with my father and sister. My aunt also learned that there would be a bang, and my father said a while ago that he would go to my aunt's house to help! Sister Hemai, then, then you wait for me, I'll ask in the next few days, and I'll tell you soon! ”
He Mai smiled casually, "Okay, that's it!" ”
When Xia Hua went out to scoop water and wash vegetables, the mountain grass pouted and snorted lightly at Hemai.
He Mai looked at her knowingly and asked funny: "What's the matter, our little mountain grass, is this jealous or jealous?" ”
"Both!" The mountain grass bared his teeth and made a fierce look, "Your stall recruits helpers, such a good thing, why don't you look for me first?" Do you think I'm not good at my hands and feet, or are you afraid that I will ask you for more wages? ”
She looked very unconvinced, still pinching her waist and holding a handful of celery in her hand, which looked very funny.
He Mai pinched her little face with his hand stained with leek foam, and said with a smile: "You, you like to mess around with me, don't you?" I asked you a long time ago, you said that Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu did not allow you to show your face outside all day, did you tell me this? ”
"I ......"
"Did you say that?" He Mai asked her after her.
Shancao let out a sigh of relief, wilted and said, "Say it's ...... said."
"Okay," He Mai smiled and pinched the corners of her mouth, "The relationship between the two of us is so good, if you are willing to come, I can't ask for it!" No matter how many people I recruit in this stall, as long as you want to come, my stall will always have your place, how about it? ”
Shancao's eyes flashed with emotion, she bit her lip happily, and said embarrassedly: "Actually, I'm just asking, try your reaction." Well, good Hemai, in fact, what you just said is right, my father and mother don't allow me to go out, they control me tightly, I can't do anything, I can only nest in our village, I'm afraid I will never be able to get out! ”
"What do you say that? How young you are, you have a lot of opportunities in the future. Besides, Second Brother Ma has seen a lot of the world, he will always take you to some very distant and beautiful places, right? You, the days to come. ”
Speaking of Ma Er, Shan Cao showed a strange look on his face.
She hesitated for a moment, then turned to He Mai to tell her distress, "However, Mr. Ma Er refuses to go to my house." ”
"Huh?" He Mai was stunned, "You two are better now, hasn't he been to your house yet?" ”
"yes." Shancao bit her lip, looking very entangled, "My father is still asking my uncle to touch other people's miles, and he fell in love with one a while ago, and he wanted to ask the man's family to come and see me, but I said that I didn't want to marry so far, and I had a lot of trouble with my mother before I gave up." But even if I'm in such a hurry, Ma Er still refuses to go to my house, I'm going to die in a hurry! ”
She had a sad and aggrieved look on her face, biting her lip, and her eyes were still glowing with pitiful water.
