After a hasty meal, Liang instructed the eldest girl and the second girl to go out to hunt pigweed, but he carried the pigweed picked back by his two nieces in the morning to the backyard to chop it, and set up a fire to start cooking.

An Xiu'er returned to her room and began to be busy with needlework.

Although she is an ordinary peasant girl, An Xiuer has always been ingenious, and the embroidered handkerchief is very delicate, which is very popular in the town, but this handkerchief was originally intended to be embroidered for Gu Linlang.

An Xiu'er will always remember this scene in her dream, the peach forest behind the village, she blushed, and gave this embroidered handkerchief to Gu Linlang, Gu Linlang reached out to take it, grabbed her hand, the two hugged each other tightly, under his sweet words, she fainted, and promised to elope with him.

She admitted that Gu Linlang was good-looking, completely different from these people in the village, he was always dressed in a robe and had a good demeanor, and the girls in the village liked him.

But good-looking can't be eaten as food, Gu Linlang is good-looking, it's not that she was abandoned by a wolf, she is good-looking herself, but in the end, she is not ruined by a widower.

Thinking so, she stretched out her hand, tore off the veil, and after looking at it twice, she fixed it again, still embroidering it with a needle and thread.

In a few days, it will be the day of the market, if you can embroider a few more squares of handkerchief, when the time comes, you can take them to the town, you can also sell them for a lot of money.

Daddy they work so hard, since they were young, they have hurt themselves in the palm of their hands, if they can save enough money before they get married, buy a cigarette stick for their father, and buy a hairpin for their mother.

Thinking of this, An Xiu'er's hand moved quickly.

This Luohe town opens a market every five days, and the market opens every two or seven days, An Xiuer has been embroidering flowers in a hurry these nights, and now it is already bruised, but the hard work pays off, she finally rushed to accumulate six handkerchiefs in front of the market, and some yarns.

She had already told Liang before dinner that she was going to the market, and this must be the last time she would go to the market as a girl.

The next day, she woke up early, washed, pulled out a sweet potato from the fire, which was buried by the spark that had been cooking in the stove last night, and there was still residual temperature this morning, she hurriedly peeled it off and ate it, and drank another sip of water, and then rushed to the town with the basket.

There are many miles from this village to the town, and if you walk, at An Xiu'er's speed, it will take a full hour, so she is in a hurry, afraid that if she goes late, there will be no place to set up a stall.

Along the way, I also met some women in the village, and when they saw An Xiu'er, they all teased her, saying, "Xiu'er, are you going to the market alone?" ”

"Yes, a few aunts are good." An Xiu'er smiled and greeted several aunts in the village.

But these aunts laughed at her and said, "Doesn't that blind man have a boat?" It's not much faster for you to take his boat, and you have to walk by yourself. ”

"Auntie, don't make fun of me." When An Xiu'er heard the words of these aunts, she blushed, lowered her head, walked a few steps quickly, and walked forward alone.

"Look at this girl, she's blushing."

"It's a pity, Xiu'er is so beautiful and married to such a person."

The words of these aunts behind her kept coming, but An Xiu'er's heart was calm, what happened to Zhang Zhen'an?

Although he is old and looks a little vicious, the others may not be as bad as they say, not to mention anything else, at least at this juncture, he is willing to take money to marry himself, that is, he saved his father's life and is his benefactor.

The sun climbed up from the side of the hill, and the golden sunlight seemed to pave the entire road with a layer of gold, golden, An Xiu'er wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued to walk forward.

She had seldom walked so far, and when she came to the town, she only felt that her legs were a little sore, but she didn't care so much, so she hurried to the middle of the market, and found an open space in a crowded place to squat down.

She had asked her second brother An Tiemu to make her a small folding stool, and at this moment she happened to spread out and sit on the street, and the small basket was her stall, and she took out a few strings, tied them to the handle of the basket, and took out a small clip, and clamped the handkerchief.

The market was very lively, and after a while, someone came to ask, An Xiuer's things were embroidered beautifully, and the price was cheap, and after a while, she sold two handkerchiefs, five strings, and got twenty-five yuan, pinching the money bag, An Xiuer's heart was sweet, and her heart said that in the past few days, her efforts have not been in vain.

Next, An Xiu'er waited for the guests to ask.

She is ingenious, ten fingers flying, a beautiful yarn slowly formed in the hand, this time she is weaving a small butterfly with silk thread, even the mother-in-law who sells eggs on the side is amazed, can't help but praise: "Girl, you are so skillful." ”

"Thank you, Grandma, for complimenting." An Xiuer pursed her lips and smiled, and continued to weave.

She was skillful and knitting on the spot, and soon attracted many girls to stop at her little stall, and in a short time her things were sold.

Seeing that it was not early, An Xiuer was about to call it a day, stood up from the stall, and was about to leave, when a person who looked like a scholar stopped in front of her stall, An Xiuer hurriedly greeted: "Hello official, take a look." ”

This scholar originally just wanted to buy a silk to match his jade pendant, but when he heard this pleasant voice at this moment, he couldn't help but glance at An Xiu'er, and his eyes were straight in an instant, only to see that the girl in front of him had red lips and white teeth, and a smile on her face, but she was just like the person in the painting.

An Xiu'er was a little annoyed by his rude behavior, so she coughed, and the scholar came back to her senses and asked casually: "Dare to ask the girl, how much is this worth?" ”

"A penny for a penny." An Xiu'er listened to the scholar's pretentious words, and suddenly felt a little unhappy in her heart, and put away the smile on her face.

"Then buy one." The scholar handed over a penny, his face turned red, and An Xiu'er didn't take it, only let him put it in the basket, and let him choose one by himself.

The scholar realized his faux pas and left in a hurry, An Xiu'er just breathed a sigh of relief, and never thought that another young man with the appearance of a prodigal son happened to pass by with a servant, and a flirtatious voice sounded beside her:

"Yo, little lady, come out to sell things alone, I'll see what they sell......" He lowered his head slightly and poked into An Xiu'er's basket: "Yo, sell it?" ”

An Xiu'er felt that she was really unlucky today, how could she rush to a market to sell things, she could encounter these things.

The world is not very stable, and nowadays it is quite tolerant of women, and it is normal for women and girls to come out to sell things in the countryside, but she is biased, and today I met this prodigal.

Seeing that this young man's body was vain, his face was white, and when he spoke, his peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, with some frivolity, and he was not a good person at first glance, An Xiuer hurriedly put away her things and said, "I won't sell them." ”

"Yo, why do others buy you and sell, but I buy you and don't sell it?" The young man was unrelenting and stopped in front of An Xiu'er and didn't let her leave.

"I just don't want to sell it to you, what, can't I?" An Xiu'er took two steps back.

The servant behind the young man stood quietly behind An Xiu'er, leaving An Xiu'er with no way out.

"Master gave you a few colors, and you also opened a dyeing workshop." This young man obviously didn't expect An Xiu'er to dare to choke him, he took two steps forward, forced his eyes to look at An Xiu'er, and said, "Don't think about leaving if you don't make it clear today." ”

This person is not a good person at first glance, An Xiuer thought about countermeasures in her heart, and saw this person with an obscene smile, stretched out her hand to tease her, she was very uncomfortable, and she didn't think about anything at the time, she only raised her foot and kicked it towards the man's crotch heavily......

"Hiss......" The young man's hand was still stretched out in mid-air, and he was kicked in the lower body, and when he bent down in pain, the vendors on the side covered their mouths and laughed when they saw him like this, and the young man became more and more annoyed, and shouted to everyone: "What a laugh!" Then he turned to the servant and shouted, "Don't chase after it!" ”

Even if the servant chased after An Xiu'er, the swinger also followed behind the servant, An Xiu'er ran forward in a panic, there were many people on this street, and her steps were not fast, seeing that she was about to be overtaken, she turned her head and looked, only to see the swinger smiling coldly at her, with an expression that you are dead.

An Xiu'er was startled and continued to run forward, but she hit a wall unexpectedly.

"Let's go!" An Xiu'er's voice was anxious, and she was about to pass over this person as she spoke, but she never thought that this person was immovable.

She raised her head at this time, but when she saw that this person was wearing a hat and a piece of black gauze on his eyes, through which she couldn't help but meet his dark eyes, An Xiu'er panicked, only to feel that her face was faintly hot, and she hurriedly lowered her head.

"Haha, let me catch you, dare to kick this son, I want you to look good!" Seeing An Xiu'er in front, the swinger laughed fiercely.

"I came here to sell veils on the street, and I never wanted to meet such a prodigal." An Xiu'er explained to Zhang Zhen'an in a whisper, and then hid behind him.

Zhang Zhen'an is not a nosy, hearing An Xiu'er's words, and seeing her appearance, he only felt a little strange in his heart, and there was a trace of incomprehension in his eyes, he only said that this girl wanted to find a place to hide, and even hid from a vicious-looking person like him, aren't you afraid that he is also a bad person?

Seeing An Xiu'er hiding behind him, the prodigal son only muttered to him angrily: "Who are you, what are you doing, do you know who this son is?" Acquaintances hand over the little lady! ”

Zhang Zhenan was still thinking about whether to help this girl, but his hands reacted faster than his head, and when the swinger stretched out his hand to point at him, he didn't say a word, holding the swinger's hand, just clicked and folded.

"Ahh

The swinger's scream was like a pig waiting to be slaughtered, and after Zhang Zhen'an let go of his hand, he put down two cruel words, as if he was afraid that Zhang Zhen'an would chase after him again, and left here with his servants.
