Chapter 10 Family Affairs

When Xiaoyun got home, he heard that there was no sound in the house, and guessed that Cheng Qing was either asleep or in the field, so Xiaoyun lightly put things on the table in the lobby, and then tiptoed to Cheng Qing's door, carefully opened an opening, and saw a bag bulging on the bed, Xiaoyun smiled secretly, silently closed the door, and walked to the kitchen.

Cheng Qing had a bad appetite at noon and didn't eat much, Xiaoyun looked at the leftovers on the table more than usual, frowned, and said, "Is Childe unwell?" Why did you only eat so little today? ”

However, Cheng Qing was sleeping, and no one answered Xiaoyun's question.

Xiao Yun cleaned the dishes and chopsticks, cleaned the kitchen again, and when everything was done, he returned to the yard and cleaned the footprints and dirty things in the yard, looking at the inside and out clean again, Xiao Yun was satisfied with the broom, and planned to wake up Cheng Qing.

It's okay to take a nap, but you can't sleep too much, otherwise you won't be able to sleep at night, but when you come to Wangjia Village, Cheng Qing rarely has nightmares, thinking of this, Xiaoyun's face also has a little more smile, as long as it's like this.

"Childe, childe..." Xiaoyun saw Cheng Qing's peaceful sleeping face, and really couldn't bear to wake him up, but if he slept again, the sun was about to go down, so he had to get up.

"Hmm..." Cheng Qing rolled over and fell asleep again.

"Childe, it's not early, I can't sleep anymore, it's time to get up..."

Cheng Qing flipped back to his original position, his eyes narrowed, he saw Xiaoyun's appearance from the gap, and said blankly: "What's wrong?" ”

"It's time to get up, the sun will go down in a little while, and I can't sleep anymore."

"How long did I sleep?"

"I don't know about this, but I've been back for an hour, and I haven't slept a lot no matter what."

Cheng Qing was pulled up by Xiaoyun in a daze, and he slowly stretched his waist and sat on the stone chair in the courtyard, holding his cheeks, as if he was still unsatisfied.

Xiaoyun came out and saw such a Cheng Qing, she smiled, walked to the kitchen on the other side, made a cup of tea for Cheng Qing, and handed it to him: "Drink a cup of tea and wake up." ”

"Hmm."

Cheng Qing took a sip of tea, his spirit was slightly better, put the cup down, and said, "Everything has been bought?" ”

"Uh-huh, it's in the lobby! You go and see if there is any problem, and if there is anything less, I will go to the town again to buy it. ”

"Oh, wait, I haven't recovered yet."

"Okay." Xiaoyun also sat down and said, "Originally, I didn't notice that the quilt at home seems to be a little damp, I will dry the quilt tomorrow, and I may not be able to sleep tomorrow's nap." ”

Cheng Qing was dissatisfied: "Don't you have other quilts at home?" ”

"I'm going to dry the upper and lower bedding, and you can bear with it tomorrow, okay?"

"Can I still say badly?" Cheng Qing took another sip of tea, and then stood up: "Let's go, go and see what you bought." ”

There were a lot of things on the table in the lobby, Cheng Qing looked left and right, he was very satisfied with the cloth he bought, the color was good, and the fabric looked very good, he nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this cloth is really good, this color is very good, you picked it?" ”

The color of the cloth bought for boys should not be too white in the first place, otherwise it will become dirty as soon as you put it on. Secondly, the color should be lively, not too dark, and reflect the active and happy side of children.

"Of course... No. Xiaoyun also touched a handful of fabrics: "It was picked by Niansi, the fabric was chosen by me, I think it is about to enter the summer, it must be getting hotter and hotter, so I bought hemp and cotton for heat dissipation, they are all good fabrics, Xiaoshan must be happy." ”

"Very good, very good!" Cheng Qing was particularly satisfied: "Have you found a good tailor?" ”

"Childe, I don't think we need to know the size of the hill before we find a tailor?" Xiaoyun reminded in a timely manner: "If you don't know the size, go to the tailor master, you will be scolded." ”

Cheng Qing was puzzled: "You don't know? ”

Xiaoyun was also puzzled: "You know? ”

"I know!"

"How wide are the shoulders? How much higher? ”

"I don't know!" Cheng Qing sat down: "But I know that he is as tall as my shoulders, and his shoulder width is a little half smaller than mine." Isn't it easy to make clothes? As long as you don't make it small, it's the best, and if you get bigger, you can wear it later, children! One day I have to grow up, and when I get older, I can wear it. ”

Xiaoyun: "......"

Xiaoyun silently walked out of the lobby, and came back after a while, holding the tailor's personal belongings - a tape measure.

"Childe stand up, I'll measure Childe, no matter how I do, I have to take the size to find someone to make clothes, so I don't want to be scolded." Xiaoyun instructed Cheng Qing to stand up, asked him to turn his back, measured behind him, and carefully remembered the size.

"Okay?"

"Hmm."

Cheng Qing turned around, watched Xiaoyun put away the tape measure, and asked, "Who are you going to find to make clothes?" I heard that the tailor Xu in the next village is good, why don't you ask? ”

"I'd like to go to Niansi for help." Xiaoyun said: "Don't say if you can do it well if you can find others, I'm not happy to run so far again." I talked to Nian Si about it, and he said that he didn't have anything to do anyway, and he could help make clothes, besides, didn't you say that you wanted me to go to the apprenticeship to learn art? Others will definitely not teach me, Niansi will definitely teach me, and when I learn, I can make these clothes myself in the future. ”

Cheng Qing nodded: "Then you can't treat him harshly, no matter how good the relationship is, the salary can't be less." ”

"Don't worry, I've got it all right." Xiaoyun put away the cloth and planned to go to Niansi tomorrow to make clothes, and there was a bunch of things next to the cloth: "By the way, are the four treasures of the study room going to be put in the small study?" ”

"Let's go to the small study and put it away, this thing is not for my own use."

"What about the seeds?"

"Go and put it carefully in the backyard so that you don't get bitten by bugs."

"Oh."

The next day, Cheng Qing ran to the field again, Xiaoyun simply cleaned up the house, dried all the bedding in the yard, watched the sun slowly rise, Xiaoyun nodded with satisfaction, took the cloth and went out, went to Niansi's house and asked him to help make clothes.

The Liu family, which used to be full of people, was full of people today, and Xiaoyun stood not far away when he heard a few words from the Liu family.

“… That Master Jiang is a great good man, if you marry him, you will definitely not suffer. ”

“… Although it is a concubine, it is better than being a cow and a horse, you listen to your uncle's advice, and now such a good opportunity is in front of you, don't miss it. ”

“… The dowry or something must be good, and I have also told people about the dowry, and I don't need you a dowry, as long as you go over. ”

“……”

Xiaoyun didn't hear a word from Liu Niansi, nor did he hear a word from the Liu family, only the two women kept chattering, saying that they would marry Liu Niansi to Master Jiang's house to be a concubine.

About half an hour later, Uncle Liu and two women he didn't know walked out, and the two women were still struggling to talk, but Uncle Liu's expression was not good-looking, and he seemed to want these two people to go far away.

The two women finally left the Liu family, Uncle Liu walked into the house with his head hanging down like ten years old in an instant, Xiaoyun thought about it, or slowly approached the Liu family, and heard Liu Niansi say in the door: "I'll marry, Dad, I'll marry." ”

Xiaoyun didn't enter the door in the end, he took his things and went home, as if something had happened to her, and he was very depressed.

Hearing Liu Niansi's "I marry", there was no joy of being a newcomer in his tone, but despair and helplessness. He didn't want to marry at all, but he seemed to have to.

Xiaoyun has always regarded Liu Niansi as a good friend, no matter what, she wants to help, but she is not a man, and it is impossible for her to go to Liu's house and let Niansi marry her!

What to do? Is there a better way?

Xiaoyun was distressed for a morning, but finally stood up, and then walked out of the house, intending to go to Gongzi for help, Gongzi is much smarter than her, and he can definitely think of a way.

After walking for most of the village, Xiaoyun found Cheng Qing who was sitting in a daze in his own field, and when he saw Xiaoyun coming, Cheng Qing was surprised: "Why are you here?" Didn't you say that you would make clothes today? ”

"Childe, Xiaoyun has something to tell you." Xiaoyun sat beside Cheng Qing, his face extremely serious.

"Well, you say, what's wrong?"

"It's not my business, it's my thoughts." Xiaoyun was actually a little hesitant and didn't know whether to say it or not.

Although Liu Niansi has a good relationship with his son, no matter what, Liu Niansi has nothing to do with Cheng Qing, Liu Niansi's marriage has nothing to do with him, and it is normal to be unwilling to help, after all, Cheng Qing is indeed not the kind of person who is kind to others.

"Thoughts?" Cheng Qing looked at Xiaoyun: "What's wrong with Niansi?" Is there anything that should be thinking about coming to me, why are you coming to me? ”

Xiaoyun shook her head and told her what she had heard, and finally she said, "... Niansi didn't really ask me to help, but I listened to Niansi's answer, and I knew that he didn't want to, so I wanted to help him, although I probably couldn't help him. ”

"I hear you clearly." Cheng Qing pondered: "But you also said that the matter of thinking has nothing to do with you and me, whether he wants to or not, as long as he doesn't find me, I can't take care of it, so I may not be able to do anything about it." ”

Although she expected it, Xiaoyun couldn't help but be disappointed, but she still nodded: "What Childe said makes sense, it's Xiaoyun who is nosy." ”

"You're not meddling, you're just caring."

"Hmm..."

Xiaoyun's weak answer made Cheng Qing look sideways, in the end, he was too weak, and he didn't want to make more trouble for himself. It's not easy to think about it, and he also said that it is a handful to be able to help, but when it comes to the critical moment, he still chooses to hang high.

"Get up, this kind of child won't grow much in a day, let's go home."

"Hmm."
