Chapter 113: Leaking the Rumors
After persuading the star fruit, the cherry went into the yard to feed the rabbits, and then took the bamboo basket out to thrive.
At this time, there was no one on the mountain, so she could practice the style while threshing the grass. Mei Yunyun's moves are really good, I only taught her a trick that day, and now that she has practiced, she feels that the whole person has a lot of strength.
I stayed in the mountains until it was dark, and Cherry reluctantly went down the mountain to go home.
Star fruit was already ready and waiting for her. The cotton peach would eat in the town and then come back, so the two of them didn't have to wait for the others, and after eating, they would keep the oil lamp and go to work.
When it was time for Youzheng, the cotton peach came back with the walnut, and this time the rice peach also came home, and now there is a big cousin and sister-in-law who often live in the store, and Wenhe Wenhai doesn't have to run to the town every day. After all, the eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, and Wen He is not by her side every day, which is not good.
After entering the door and cleaning up, the star fruit pulled the cotton peach aside alone and told her what Miao Tianmin had mentioned today.
Mian Tao didn't even think about it, and directly refused: "Sister, how old am I now?" Where is the time to settle the family? Besides, this Miao Yuze, he is a scholar, and I am a businessman, where can such two people match together? I really don't know what Uncle Tianmin thinks, how can he take a fancy to me? I don't know if Miao Yuze knows about this, if he knows, he probably won't want to. ”
"Mian'er, Yu Ze is a good person after all, his family conditions are not bad, and Tianmin's uncles and aunts are all good people, if you marry over, I promise that you will not suffer any more. Why can't businessmen and scholars get together? Don't you refuse so quickly, think carefully about it all of a sudden? The star fruit persuaded bitterly, and then glanced at the cherry fiercely.
Cherry was helpless, so she had to symbolically persuade: "Brother Yuze is really good!" ”
"You see Cherry said that, you think about it again?" Star fruit quickly answered.
Mian Tao looked at the cherry with some surprise, Sakura has always been an unfettered thinker, and she has to be independent in marriage, this is what she told herself, why is she helping her eldest sister persuade herself now?
Cherry gave a helpless expression and squinted at the star fruit.
Mian Tao suddenly patted the hand of the star fruit: "Eldest sister, don't worry about this." I know this in my heart, and I will not disappoint you. It's just that this Miao Yuze is really not suitable, you better find a good excuse and go back to Uncle Tianmin. ”
"You girl......" Carambola couldn't hide her disappointment, but she still didn't persuade again. Then Cherry discussed how to go back to Miao Tianmin tomorrow.
On the second day, Miao Tianmin went to Yue's house to propose marriage, but somehow it spread.
Carambola went to Miao Tianmin's house early in the morning and told Mian Tao's refusal tactfully. asked again how this matter could get out, and Miao Tianmin also said that he didn't know, and he didn't tell anyone about it. Miao Tianmin and his wife were very disappointed with Miantao's refusal, and both of them seemed to be very devastated, so they only sent the star fruit to the door and went back to the house.
Originally, it was not a shame for this matter to get out. What the five sisters of the Yue family didn't expect was that star fruit came out of Miao Tianmin's house, and before they reached the door of their own courtyard, they stood on the small bridge and saw two people dressed as long-term workers waiting in front of the door.
Today's walnut is the walnut with the star fruit, she is anxious not to know what to do, frequently look towards the small bridge, when she sees her coming, she hurriedly beckons and shouts: "Big sister ~~ Big sister ~~"
"What's going on?" Carambola hung her heart and ran to the front to take a closer look, these two long-term workers are from Wu Ye's family, from their own village. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and asked with a smile on his face: "Two big brothers, what's the matter this early in the morning?" ”
One of them, who was a little thinner, with a flattering smile on his face, first bowed his hand respectfully to the star fruit: "Star fruit girl." Our housekeeper has been out on business for the past few days, so Wu Ye had to send us if he had something. I'm afraid that you think he is taking this lightly, so I specially asked me to explain it first. ”
"Big brother is polite. Something straight to say. "Star fruit really can't think of what Wu Ye can have to do with his own family, and what can he do with himself. But speaking of which, since the last time Wu Ye helped the uncle repay the money owed to the third aunt, he seems to be quite diligent in his dealings with his family, and he can always find such a reason every once in a while.
"Don't blame us for speaking out, girl star fruit." The man saluted again, and said respectfully: "Master Wu sent the little one to ask this time, yesterday's ...... Yesterday, did the seedlings grow to your house to discuss relatives? It's the three girls who are talking about cotton peach? ”
"Yes, yes" Star fruit nodded, and said in his heart that this matter was really fast enough, and Wu Ye, who usually doesn't go out, knew it. But he's a big man, and he came to ask all these gossips about what's the matter?
I saw the two of them look at each other, saluted the star fruit again, and hurriedly walked towards the Wu family.
"Strange." Carambola shook her head gently, could it be that this Wu Ye is still thinking about asking Mian Tao to do his granddaughter-in-law's business? Thinking of this, she straightened her chest with a little pride, the two best families in Xiaomiao Village took a fancy to her sister. Her good sister, although she is a daughter, is very promising!!
Where did star fruit think that after a while, Wu Ye came in person.
He wore a silver-gray silk robe, neatly tied with a belt, and his hair neatly tied. Wu Ye is a very casual person, and he likes to wear casual clothes on weekdays. Compared to today, it seems very formal.
"Wu Ye...... What's the matter with coming in person? Carambola said in her heart, Mian Tao just rejected Miao Yuze, and now Wu Ye came to the door for Ke'er, I don't know if she will agree.
"I'm ...... to counsel with you. Wu Ye laughed, his voice was loud and crisp, and he couldn't hear that it was a person over fifty: "Yesterday, Miao Tianmin came to mention the marriage of Mian Tao?" ”
"Yes," star fruit nodded.
"Did she answer?"
"No, I didn't. Niko didn't know what she was thinking. ”
"That's right. Not responding was what she really thought. Wu Ye looked at his toes and laughed: "She...... It's also thirteen this year? ”
"Yes, thirteen. In two years, it will be time" star fruit is a little strange, he doesn't talk about the topic, what is he doing around?
"It's not too young." Wu Ye let out a long breath in a low voice, and said softly: "I miss Miao Sanwu, I lost my wife ten years ago, and I worked hard only for this family business, and for my hard-working orphan, I never married again." It's been ten years now. When I was old, I thought I would come to the end alone, but I didn't expect to meet such a strange woman. ”
Hearing his words, star fruit was stunned. His eyes slowly opened, and he meant ......
Wu Ye continued his: "Mian Tao is smart, shrewd, knows how to measure inches and knows the general situation, and she is a strange woman. It's a pity that she is twenty-eight years old, but I am old and frail. I shouldn't have thought about it, but I really don't want to miss someone like that in my life. If she is willing to live with me for the rest of her life, I will give everything for her. ”
"This, this is ......" Carambola couldn't find her voice anymore.
"It's me who is on the waves." Wu Ye's face was still flushed, and he was a little embarrassed and slightly narrowed his eyes: "I'm here to ask for myself today, if Mian Tao is willing, I will ask the matchmaker to come to the door officially." Star fruit, you can rest assured, your sister has entered my door, and I will be good to her. Such a woman is hard to find, if not, how could I be cheeky to come on this trip? ”
"It was ......" was him!! Carambola said in his heart, he thought that Wu Ye had always taken good care of his family, all so that his grandson could marry a cotton peach. Today she realized that it was for himself...... This old man is not ashamed, unexpectedly, unexpectedly...... His age is only a few years younger than his grandmother, and he is enough to be the grandfather of several sisters, how can he have such a thought, how can he be embarrassed to move such a thought......
Carambola's heart was tumbling, and she pretended to be calm with a smile on her face, and said, "Master Wu, this is also a big deal." I'll have to wait for Mian'er to come back and ask her what she means. You also know that although she is young, she has her own opinions, otherwise I would have answered the matter of Yuze for her. "Even if Miao Yuze is a poor farmer, he is a hundred times stronger than Wu Ye.
"Yes, yes." Wu Ye nodded continuously: "Star fruit, you don't have to call me Wu Ye anymore, just call Angkor." When this matter is settled, I will call you sister. ”
"How dare you!!" Carambola waved her hand hurriedly, she was afraid of losing her life. She didn't plan to tell her sister about this at all, she would go back to Wu Ye directly tomorrow. At such an old age, he asked Mian Tao to marry him, and he would be widowed in a few years? If this thing is done, her parents under the loess will have to crawl out and skin her.
Wu Ye said a few more words before getting up and leaving.
Seeing that he was gone, Carambola closed the door tightly, and turned back to instruct Walnut: "This matter must not be known to the second person!" Especially your fourth sister, you always like to have something to tell her!! Do you hear that? ”
"I see." The little walnut also understood a little, and the words that Wu Ye just said didn't seem to be very good.
"This matter is different from Uncle Tianmin's, and it must not be passed on." Carambola is a little worried, Wu Ye is a respected figure in the village, and it is a foregone conclusion that his family does not agree to this matter, if this matter spreads out, it will definitely ruin Wu Ye's image, in case he is annoyed and angry......
When the star fruit and walnut were sitting in the hall with big eyes and small eyes, Lixia's shout sounded outside the courtyard: "Walnut!" Not at home~! ”
Carambola was excited, and hurried to open the door.
"My mother asked me to come and tell you that the matter of buying land has been lost. No matter how much money you give, we won't sell it. Lixia glared at the star fruit and walnut viciously, as if they had snatched her Miao Yuze: "People like Brother Yuze, willing to go to your house to discuss the media, then you are really deceived by you!" It's funny that Cotton Peach is still unwilling. She deserves no blessing!! ”
Saying that, Yue Lixia looked back and forth at the star fruit and walnut with some strangeness: "What kind of look are you two looking like?" I saw Wu Ye go out from here just now, what did he say? ”
