A month ago, Lin Changxi's family ordered a cow from the town to come back, and he originally asked the people in the livestock shed to send it to the cattle, but the small worker had something to do temporarily, and it happened that Yang Liulang returned to Xiaoqing Village, so he did it for him.

When Yang Liulang entered Lin's house, the black dog was not in front of the house to watch the house, he led the cow and went all the way to Lin's house.

In the hall of the Lin family, he heard the conversation between Lin Changxi and his wife.

"Mrs. Wang came to find a suitable mile yesterday, a man in Qinglu Village, only forty years old this year, his wife died the year before last, the family can be called a few acres of fertile land, and there are some additional industries, and now the children are older and don't have to be managed by him, so he wants to find a daughter-in-law." It was a woman who spoke, and there was a hint of these calculations in her tone.

"More than forty? Too big, isn't it? ”

"Big, big! The family has money and land, isn't it a blessing to let that stinky girl marry her! ”

"That'...... How much dowry can he give? ”

"I asked the matchmaker! said that if it was a little girl like He Mai who had never been married, he would be willing to give us a gift of five taels of silver, and he could also give us five buckets of rice! ”

"It's so generous!"

"No!" The woman snorted proudly, "The gift money for this stinky girl will be our He Miao's dowry in the future!" Hurry up and marry this stinky girl, it's really an eyesore to stay at home......"

Yang Liulang listened to the couple's conversation and silently retreated from the house.

When I retreated to the south forest behind the Lin family, I happened to meet the "stinky girl" in the mouth of the couple again.

The first time they met, it was on the way that He Mai was taken back to Xiaoqing Village by Lin Changjun, He Mai was in a hurry, passing by him, but he didn't see Yang Liulang, who had been staring at her.

And the second encounter was next to the ruined temple in the west of the village, where he had just returned from hunting.

This girl has a beautiful face, a pair of dark eyes casually swept over the grass and trees beside her, and there was a trace of boredom between her eyebrows.

She didn't look like a country girl at all when she walked, and there was a faint hint of perseverance and distress under her quiet and tranquil face.

Yang Liulang walked over silently, and the girl looked at him without hesitation, with a pair of big eyes shining and a little curious.

Isn't she afraid of herself? Yang Liulang thought to himself.

When the girl from the village saw that he was bearded, she secretly called him a wild man, and she was very afraid, and when she saw him from afar, she ran away. How could she be like this girl, looking at him with big eyes.

The relationship between the two sides, although he did not speak to Hemai, this girl has carved a shallow impression in his heart.

It wasn't until a few days after returning home that he did something he couldn't have imagined - he took out the marriage book at home and went to Lizheng to ask for his relatives.

Xu has been alone for a long time, and he wants to find a companion, even if it is just to talk to him.

He knew what had become of the girls who had been married off to old widowers because of their poor family fortune, and they were so miserable that they were no longer human, and their once bright eyes had become gray, and their lively temperament had been worn down to only misery, and every day that passed, it was as if they were being tortured.

Come to think of it, does he want to protect a pair of beautiful and lovely eyes without affecting himself?

So he did so, with a thorough courtesy and a generous dowry.

In front of him, a trace of astonishment flashed in his smart and crystal eyes, and he suddenly smiled.

"What are you afraid of," he reassured her in a gentle voice, "that you have forgotten what I told you?" You marry into my Yang family, enter the door of my Yang family, and you will live here with peace of mind, no matter what you have done, I will protect you for a lifetime.

My Yang family is the most short-sighted. ”

He Mai looked at those warm eyes, his heart was inexplicably reassured, and he was much more relieved, but he was still puzzled, "Since you know that I am marrying my sister on behalf of me, I am reluctant, but I ......"

"You don't have to worry," Yang Liulang smiled solemnly, "I said these confidant words to you, which naturally means that I will not force you to do things that you are not willing to do." ”

"Although I am not a decent gentleman, I will never be strong. Knowing that you were forced to marry on your behalf, in the future, you can only relax and live at home, and outside, if you want, you and I can be a loving husband and wife; But if thou wilt, I will seldom go in and out with thee. ”

"If you are really afraid, then then you and I will be friends from now on. If you don't agree, I will never take half a step beyond the norm, and you may accept it? ”

Lin Hemai stared at those eyes as deep as night, moved and relieved.

She said in a low voice: "Thank you, in the future, I can't do anything on the side, but I still have no problem with small things like laundry and cooking." ”

Her tone was extremely sincere, and Yang Liulang, who looked at her seriously, couldn't help but smile.

"In this way, it seems that I have decided to bring you home to wash and cook for me." His smiling eyes reflected the shadow of Hemai, "Naturally, the most casual." ”

When He Mai was stunned, Yang Liulang's big hand had already cleaned up the mess on the table, brought it out of the house, and brought hot water from outside the house.

"Wash your face and get some rest." He turned and went out again, and closed the window and door.

After the wheat was washed, Yang Liulang went into the house and washed his hands and face casually with the water of the wheat, splashed the water, and brought the door latch.

It was the first time for Hemai to be alone with a man, although the two had already made a heart-to-heart relationship, knowing that Yang Liulang had no bad intentions, but at this time, he still couldn't control his blushing heartbeat, and his hands and feet were extremely restrained.

Yang Liulang also seemed to see Hemai's shyness, and when he entered the house, he didn't look at Lin Hemai, took two wooden planks from the side of the kang and spread them on the ground.

The planks were very thick, and when put together and covered with bedding, they could also sleep on people.

Thinking that this should have been prepared by Yang Liulang a long time ago, He Mai thought to himself, since he knew her identity, how could he know that he was unwilling to marry easily?

This man's mind is so calm.

"Sleep." Yang Liulang, who was covered with a thin quilt on the wooden board, turned his back to He Mai, and his voice came softly.

"Hmm." He Mai replied softly.

The candle flame in the house was extinguished instantly, and the Yang family's small courtyard fell into darkness.

He Mai was really tired, but his mind lingered with Yang Liulang's words, and in a drowsy state, he slept until dawn.

As soon as it was dawn in the morning, He Mai got up lightly, only to find that Yang Liulang got up earlier than her.

The morning light entered the house, and the air was filled with the half-hazy and half-ambiguous breath when they woke up, and their cheeks were red when they looked at each other.

Yang Liulang hurriedly grabbed his coat and escaped from the room, and hurriedly said, "I'll go fetch water." ”

He Mai blushed, and when Yang Liulang went out, he rubbed his face and quickly dressed on the ground.

Shui Duan came in, and He Mai hurriedly said to Yang Liulang: "I will do these trivial things myself in the future, you don't have to ...... Don't have to help me. ”

is a fake couple, how can she accept Yang Liulang's care so calmly?
