"You're really, doing this...... Why don't you want to think about what the people in the village will say when she comes back with her? How could my sister not be misunderstood? Cherry shook her head slightly, this matter was indeed something Miao Chengye did wrong. But the woman named Wan'er was also a little unscrupulous.

Miao Chengye suddenly thought of something, glared and said urgently: "Ying'er, how is your eldest sister now?" I hate, I regret it, but I have been there I don't know how many times, and she just won't open the door. Even my sister-in-law won't be called into the door, and I've been living for the past two days. She's okay for the past two days? ”

"My eldest sister!!" Cherry glared at him with disgust: "I haven't eaten for two days, and everyone is haggard." He said that he would never see your family again, and he would never recognize your family again. Look at what you've done!! ”

"It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good." Miao Chengye thumped his hands, distressed: "How can she not eat, how can she not listen to my explanation?" As he spoke, he raised his head again, very firmly: "I'll go home, drive that Wan'er out of the door, and then go to your sister to accompany you." Sakura, you'll have to say something nice for me then. Brother Chengye is begging you. ”

"You've already brought her back, and if you drive her out, won't you have to bear the notoriety of being ruthless again?" Cherry thought for a moment and said, "It's better to ask your sister-in-law to take her to find another place to live, give her a little money, and tell her to take care of herself in the future, and you don't care about it." ”

"It's good, it's good." Miao Chengye nodded: "Just do as you say!" ”

"When you're done, come to my house. I'll open the door for you, and I'll help you talk to my sister about it. And that was the end of it. Cherry sighed again: "It's so raw, you don't torture each other." ”

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Don't be kind enough. Miao Chengye nodded violently, eagerly: "Ying'er, then do as you say, I'll go home, you also hurry home, and persuade your sister to eat something first." I'm done, I'll be right away!! ”

"There's no hurry. It's almost noon, so let's talk about it after lunch. ”

"How can you not be in a hurry!! She hasn't eaten in two days!! Miao Chengye didn't say anything more to Cherry, turned around and ran towards the south.

Seeing him gone, Cherry turned around and went home.

"Why is this fast?" Mi Tao is washing vegetables.

"I ran into Brother Chengye on the small bridge, it seems that he was waiting there, with a scruffy beard and a haggard one." Cherry deliberately said it loudly, so that the star fruit in the back room could also hear it: "When people came back to see each other, they lost a lot of weight, thinking that they were tired of making money for those marriages." ”

"Phew! If he thinks about getting married, why does he need to bring a woman back? Mi Tao rolled her eyes beside her.

Cherry tugged at her lightly and said loudly: "He told me everything just now, this is all a misunderstanding!" The woman was just a few nests he had passed by and given alms, and she would die or die when she thought of it. I heard that he has a wife, and he has to rely on being a concubine to be a maid. Brother Chengye couldn't do anything, so he thought about bringing her back first, and then finding a good family to send her out. Where would you have thought that this would make our eldest sister sad!! ”

After saying this, Cherry made a silent gesture to tell Mi Tao not to speak, and she listened carefully to the movement in the back room.

In the back room, there was the whispered persuasion of cotton peach and the thin voice of star fruit.

After a while, the voice of Mian Tao came again: "Sakura, didn't you go to rest, why did you run out again?" Come on, eldest sister has to teach you a few words! ”

"Hey!!" Cherry winked at Rice Peach and Walnut, lifted the curtain and went into the back room.

"Big sister." Cherry smiled and stood at the foot of the kang, looking at the star fruit.

"You Nizi, didn't you ask you to inquire, why did you still go." Although the star fruit said this, there was no blame on her face, on the contrary, her eyes were obviously much more energetic than just now: "Tell me, what's going on?" ”

Cherry repeated the ins and outs of what Miao Chengye had just said.

"So it is. You're still keeping the door closed, and you're not letting people in! Mian Tao said softly.

"What he said is true," star fruit asked again uncertainly.

"So what do you think? Could it be that Brother Chengye brought back a woman and didn't want to give up on you, so he lied to me? You've been with Brother Chengye the longest, do you think he's such a person? Cherry didn't answer the rhetorical question.

"It's not. He's not that kind of person. Carambola's face regained a bit of vitality and vigor, and she looked at the cherry: "Then tell me, how thin has he become now?" What did the emaciation look like? How long had he been waiting under the bridge? As he spoke, he said angrily: "On this hot day, with such a poisonous sun, why is he so stupid that he wants to run to the edge of the bridge and squat?" I don't know how to look for a shady place. ”

"That's what you're talking about?" Cherry deliberately teased her: "Who just said that you can't hear him and never recognize him again?" ”

"Is that my whims-of-the-moment?" Carambola glared at her: "You Nizi, come to the kang quickly, you haven't told me about it yet, when you went to sea." This time it's too enjoyable, and you can't go again in the future. ”

"Second sister, cook more food at noon today, and cook some porridge!" Cherry shouted at the hall and took off her shoes and put on the kang. There are still five days to go to sea, so I'm not in a hurry to tell a few sisters.

"I'll help her." Seeing that the star fruit had regained its vitality, Mian Tao covered her mouth and smiled, lifted the curtain and went out.

For lunch, star fruit drank a bowl of porridge and ate a small piece of white flour bun and some vegetables. Mian Tao was afraid that she would suddenly be unable to stand eating so much in her stomach after she had been hungry for so long, so she was told to eat these and not let her eat any more.

Just after lunch, there was a knock on the door outside.

Walnut hurriedly went to open the door, it was Miao Chengye.

"It's really fast. It seems that he is in a real hurry. Cherry deliberately leaned into the carambola's ear and whispered.

"You Nizi!!" Carambola glared at her with a red face: "It's really not big or small!" ”

Mi Tao only listened to half of the cherry's words just now, and she was unforgiving, and when she saw Miao Chengye at this time, she didn't have a good face, snorted coldly, and glared at him with white eyes.

"Mi Tao." Miao Chengye accompanied the smiling face, made a compilation towards Mi Tao, nodded at Mian Tao, and then lifted the curtain and entered the back room.

"Brother Chengye, it's all done?" As soon as Miao Chengye entered the door, Cherry asked.

"That's it." Miao Chengye nodded, looking at the star fruit with burning eyes: "My sister-in-law entrusted someone to send her to a vacant house in Dazhao Village, and paid a month's rent for her, telling her that she would earn her own money to support herself in the future, and told her not to come again." As he spoke, he stepped forward and walked to the edge of the kang, looking at the star fruit with earnest eyes: "Star fruit, I didn't do this well, don't be angry." ...... at noon today Ready to eat? ”

The star fruit hung its head and did not make a sound.

"Eat." Cherry replied for her: "After listening to me tell me the ins and outs of this, I have the spirit to eat a lot at noon." ”

"You Nizi, whose sister are you, why do you turn your elbows out?" Seeing that Cherry had leaked the secret for her, Carambola raised her head, glared at Cherry with disgust, and then said to Miao Chengye: "This time, don't blame me for being ruthless and not opening the door, it is indeed what you did wrong." Let the villagers think of me, and what do they think of me? Where else do I have the face to open the door to your family? ”

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault." Miao Chengye nodded and admitted his mistake: "It's all my fault, it's my fault." ”

Star fruit paused, not knowing what to say next.

Miao Chengye looked at the windowsill and couldn't find a topic for a while

Cherry hurriedly said, "That woman...... Won't you get it back? ”

"No, no, no." Miao Chengye hurriedly waved his hand: "I specially entrusted my sister-in-law, and I made it clear to her and told her not to come back." Come to think of it, the woman is also a sensible person and will not come back. ”

Seeing that the star fruit still had no intention of speaking, Cherry had no choice but to continue: "Right now, it's not a New Year's Day and a festival, Brother Chengye is back, isn't it for marriage?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Miao Chengye and star fruit's faces turned red.

"Yes..... yes." Miao Chengye raised his head and quietly glanced at the star fruit, and said with a red face: "The money is almost saved, I came back to ask your sister, there is something you like in that courtyard." If you like it, buy it now, and if the money is not enough, I might as well save it again. In a few days, there is a long train to the capital, and I will follow it, and it is basically all right. ”

"So far...... star fruit raised her head suddenly: "Why can't you make money, you have to go so far?" ”

"In order to buy a good yard, is it worth it no matter how far it is?"

"How much money is missing, I'll make it up to you." Star fruit is now a little rich woman, and she has money in her hands.

"No, no, how can you use your aunt's money before you get married? Besides, this trip to Beijing, I also want to see and see, and I heard a familiar coachman say that there is gold everywhere, and it is enough to eat and drink at will to do business at will. I'm going to see if there's anything I can do with it. Miao Chengye waved his hand hurriedly

"That's a good thing." Cherry first support. Miao Chengye is a good person, but the conditions are not good. If he can start a business, that's good.

"Then you go......" Carambola lowered her head again and stopped talking.

Miao Chengye stayed here for a while, and when he saw that the star fruit was really not angry, he went home.

As soon as he left, several sisters were discussing this topic, and before he could close the courtyard door, a woman wearing a broken flower gown walked in, and asked crisply: "This is Yue Carambola's home?" ”

"Yes, you are ......" Mi Taohu looked at the visitor suspiciously.

"Hello sister." The woman actually smiled, and entered the courtyard generously, not only called Mi Tao 'sister', but also reached out to grab her hand, and said kindly: "I am the concubine of the Miao family, named Wan'er, and this trip is here to ask for peace for the eldest wife of the main room." ”
