The two unkempt ghosts, who had grabbed each other, got up, turned enemies into friends, and sat on the ground against the feet of a table and gossiped with relish. Zhou Tian'er picked up an apricot rolling on the side, wiped it on her clothes and took a bite: "It's so sour, Feng Jiaojiao really doesn't know how to buy things, she has to buy big white apricots to be sweet." ”

Willow Branch also picked up one: "Hmm, it's okay, don't you have bad luck." By the way, do you know that Brother Xiaochun found an old apricot tree in Dongshan, a small yellow apricot, which is sweet, and takes a bite of honey. Do you want to eat? You have to bring it to my house and get it, and half a basket. Don't let Jiaojiao know, come secretly. ”

"Hey, okay. Li Chun is capable, and the mulberries I picked for you last time were also very big and sweet. Alas, he is actually quite good, but he is not your brother, and he is not a daughter's family; Liu Zhi is serious, if you don't want to marry him, you really can't be with him like this. ”

"Then let's get married!"

With a sip, the little face of the willow branch shrunk into a ball, and continued indifferently: "Only one side is sweet, and this side is really sour." Well, Zhou Tian'er, I said that if I marry Brother Xiaochun, you won't always gossip behind your back. ”

Willow Branch, who felt that he had found a good way, excitedly told his father and mother his brilliant idea when he returned home. "Nonsense" and "unorthodox" Liu Wang and Li blurted out. Okay, this daughter hadn't learned a good lesson from the turmoil at the Feng family's wedding banquet, and when she came out like this, where was there such a cheeky daughter's family, she ran to her parents and said, "Dad, mother, I've thought about it, marry me to Brother Xiaochun." ”

I didn't expect my parents to refuse and ask myself to go to the punishment station, and Liu Zhi was surprised. It seemed to her that it was a matter of course and flawlessness. Who else can you marry if you don't marry Brother Xiaochun? No one is as familiar as Brother Koharu, and he is good to himself.

"Zhi'er's father, did you say that we raised her too strong?" The two of them in the bedroom had a relative headache. Li Shi put a handkerchief on her forehead, and asked with a dying breath, she wanted to say "bastard", but after all, she was a daughter, and she chose a "strong" assessment for Liu Zhi for a long time.

Alas, he is frail and has never had a son, thinking that his daughter would rather be raised than be a soft person with no ideas. But now it doesn't seem like a big idea. Most of the people who came to Feng's house to eat and drink today are people with heads and faces in the county, and the Li family is really ashamed that they can't sit still, and their daughter fights for a boy!

Twelve years old is an age that says it's not big, it's not too small, it's innocent in tolerance, and it's at such a young age that I start thinking about men. But the world is mean.

Liu Wang cares more than that.

He has always been haunted by the affairs of Fu Gouer and Fu Dan'er that year, and he has been to Aoyagi Village many times in private, and has found out some clues. But he couldn't believe that it was Li Chun who succeeded, how old was Li Chun that year? He was only a teenager, so how did he get to Aoyagi Village, thirty miles away? He and his brother and sister-in-law's family have no grievances - no grievances and no hatreds - Liu Wang is clever, and he thinks of the white cat.

He was passing by the kitchen and saw his two nephews holding the cat with his own eyes, but he didn't care about it as a child, so he passed by, and he didn't pay attention to what was going on, and he didn't know that his nephew would throw the cat into the well. But on the other hand, how did Li Chun know that his two nephews did it? And just for a cat, a cat - Liu Wang didn't want to think about it, he preferred to think that everything was still a coincidence.

But from then on, Liu Wang felt that Li Chun was wild. I have to say that Liu Wang has the intuition of a businessman, that year Li Chun didn't touch him with his fingernails in order to teach Fu Niu'er a lesson, and scared a sturdy little boy in the countryside alive, which is something that Liu Zhi has always been curious about. Fu Niu'er a little boy stayed in the house sullenly, Liu Zhi didn't play with him, Liu Wang didn't have time to go out with him, Li Chun said I'll play with you, I have endless fish at home, don't you see that the fish here are all sent by me. Fu Niu'er followed him to the river in a daze, Li Chun said that it was just Fu Niu'er watching him kill fish, but his fish-killing scene was really a nightmare.

The fish could not move when it was cut into its gills, and it slammed into the granite dock floor, and almost at the same time the knife was slashed from the top of the head. Fu Niu'er is stupid, he is so much thinner than himself, how can he have so much strength, he can cut the fish into two pieces with one knife; The second and third --- splattered blood and scales, and the ground was bouncing with pieces of fish broken in two, and the head and tail were still alive. A fish's head struggled and jumped into the arms of Fu Niu'er, who fell in terror, and his mouth opened and closed, as if asking word by word: Yours, what is yours?

Liu Wang drank too much wine during the day, and made a cup of strong tea at this time, he took a sip of hot tea, felt more comfortable, and said, "Don't worry, lady." There are still people who are interested in marrying my family today. ”

"Really?" Lee's eyes widened.

"Brother Xiaochun, I told my father and mother that I want them to marry me to you." Liu Zhi handed Li Chun the basket of vegetables and told him to carry it.

Her words made Li Chun's feet almost trip over each other, and the vegetable basket didn't catch it and fell to the ground. "Ahh Willow Branch's eyes widened.

Li Chun took a breath and bent down to pick up the basket with a forced composure: "Nonsense." ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, I really want to marry you so you don't have to be left alone.

"Your mom and dad won't agree."

"Well, they punished me, and punished me for standing in the corner for half an hour." Willow Branch complaint.

Li Chun looked at her puffing appearance, and suddenly felt relaxed. She was still young and didn't understand anything, just talking casually, like a housekeeping game. He smiled: "So pitiful." Then let's eat fried sparrows, and you won't be angry after eating them. ”

"Wow!" The willow branch cheered, and sure enough, he couldn't get angry. Fried sparrows cost only half a penny, which is a very expensive food. But it was delicious, the meat was fragrant and soft, and it was so hot that even the bones were fried to a crisp.

Li Chun occasionally has money, Li Da sometimes gets drunk and scatters the money all over the ground, he will pick it up one by one, he has no place to save money, and when he has it, the two of them buy something to eat. Now the two of them are sitting on the honey water stall by the river, two bowls of perilla water for a penny, three sparrows in a lotus leaf, one and a half for each person, but half of the willow branch is only two sparrow legs, and Li Chun's half is just a sparrow head. There was a vegetable basket on the side, in which there was a piece of meat and a handful of greens, covered with a large lotus leaf, so that it would not fall into ashes.

"You're so nice to me, and I don't think you're going to please your aunt, so it's best for me to marry you." Willow Branch also clutched a sparrow's leg in his hand, and his mouth was full of oil.

It's all some kind of mess. Li Chun's face flushed, and he said with a little secret expectation: "Am I good to you?" But I have nothing, and where will you live if you marry me? Do you live on that broken boat? ”

Liu Zhi didn't think this was a problem, she said very easily: "My house is so big, of course you live with me in the house on Sweet Water Well Street." ”

"But your father and mother don't agree." This is really a problem, and he punished himself for standing, what is wrong with Brother Xiaochun, why don't you agree.
