Chapter 330: Another Little Year
Xu Ya was not annoyed when he heard this, stretched out his hand to pull him aside, and said softly:
"There should be a clever one by the eldest sister's side, otherwise you say that she is always replaced, when will she be able to untie the knot?"
When Qin Qian heard this, he thought about it and shook his head, "The second girl doesn't know, the little one has done it according to your idea before." But it's still useless, and the girl still won't stay at that time, and the girl's heart is knotted...... It's not that we can help untie it, it depends on the fifth master. ”
Fifth brother?
Xu Ya nodded, but the fifth brother has had too many things in the past two years, and there is no time to release the eldest sister. It's very good to be able to run here every year during the Chinese New Year. The two of them see each other once a year, how can they say something that affects the atmosphere.
sighed heavily, but still insisted: "If the eldest sister asks this time, you say that I picked it, I believe that my eldest sister will give me this face, really." ”
"That'...... All right. "Qin Qian doesn't insist anymore, after all, they are sisters, and it's useless to insist too much.
The person was chosen, Qin Qian went to pay the silver, Xu Ya looked at the girl, and asked casually:
"What's your name?"
"If you go back to the girl, the slave has no name, only a nickname, called Erya." The girl said timidly. Although he had thoughts, he still didn't dare to squeak in the face of Xu Ya, who had a strong aura.
Erya?
Very farmhouse name.
Looking at this girl again, it's not bad, except for the time when she was choosing, she stared at herself vigorously. At this time, she kept her head down, standing calmly, very self-aware, hoping that she could stay longer and not be replaced again.
After all the formalities were completed, Qin Qian walked in from outside, and Xu Ya saw that it was okay, so he took the girl out of the tooth line and carriage. Back at Miaoju, the carriage had just stopped, and the carriage that Quandong was driving had also arrived.
Qin Qian hurriedly got out of the car, hugged his fist at Quandong, and said:
"You're back, and the girl is asleep?"
"No, awake." After Quan Dong finished speaking, he took a bench out and lifted the curtain.
Xu Miao got out of the car, Qin Qian and Quan Dong both took the initiative to step forward, and after helping people out of the car, Qin Qian clasped his fists and saluted, saying:
"Girl, the person has already bought it back, and the second girl went with the younger one."
"Oh?" Xu Miao was surprised.
Xu Ya walked over, took her arm warmly, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'll help you pick it, you can see if it's okay." As he spoke, he pulled his sister like a treasure, intending to pull her over to see the girl.
Xu Miao glanced away from the distance, then held Xu Ya's wrist and walked home, saying as she walked:
"There's nothing to see, and I won't stay long anyway. You don't want to fry croquettes at home, what are you going out with Steward Qin, are the meatballs and noodles reconciled? I'm hungry. ”
Xu Ya was a little disappointed when she heard this, but it was only noon at this time, and the eldest sister came back, and Steward Qin told him at that time, on this day every year, the eldest sister came back after dark, and her eyes were red when she came back.
Now it seems that I haven't cried before, and I believe that it should be okay slowly. Thinking of this, his heavy heart suddenly released a lot, and he shook his head mischievously and said:
"I'm good to go with the croquettes, but I didn't have time to make croquettes and go out with Steward Qin, those mothers-in-law must have fried the meatballs, the taste should not be bad, the eldest sister will eat more in a while."
"Okay."
The sisters walked as they spoke, not paying attention to the newly bought girl at all. Qin Qian was no longer surprised by this situation, came to the girl, and said:
"Let's go, let's go in, I'll explain a few words to you."
"Oh." The little girl came from the farmer's house, and she didn't know any rules, so she directly said "oh", which really stunned Qin Qian.
……
The dinner on this day of the New Year is much more sumptuous than last year. Croquettes, fried fish, dumplings, mixed vegetables...... The three people who ate made a table of dishes were quite wasteful. Xu Miao looked at the dishes on the table, thought for a while, and rushed to the people behind him, saying:
"You go, call Quandong and Steward Qin, and say I asked them to come. Also, let Steward Qin prepare a jar of daughter red for the New Year. ”
When Erya heard this, she curts, bowed awkwardly, turned around and left, and didn't even respond. Xu Miao looked at her back, shook her head funny, and put a ball into her mouth.
The taste is still the same as before, but this mood is not the same as before.
Xu Ya saw that the eldest sister called Quandong and Qin Qian, and knew without thinking about it that they were going to come over for dinner together. After thinking for a moment, he asked tentatively:
"Eldest sister, do you want to ...... Luan'er too?"
"No need, she is young, in her room, there is a mother-in-law to serve, come here strong."
Before Xu Ya finished speaking, she directly interrupted her. Yue Xuanyuan looked at the appearance of the two sisters, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a ball, but he put it on a plate and never ate it. Seeing this, Xu Ya looked at him in wonder and asked:
"Hey, why don't you eat it?"
When Xu Miao heard this, she raised her eyes to look at the two of them, swallowed the pills in her mouth, and said faintly:
"It's been two years, let's eat. Even if he didn't send this thing to you that day, he wanted to harm me, but it was just a coincidence. ”
After saying this, Xu Ya's eyes suddenly widened, and she knew in her heart what the eldest sister was talking about. looked at Yue Xuanyuan in surprise, and there was something strange in his heart. She has always felt that this guy is a heartless person, no matter how she scolds him or chases him, he will follow him cheekily.
But what she didn't expect now was that he didn't even want to eat this meal of balls for the sake of that day, which really impressed her. Just pondering, there was a sound of footsteps outside, Qin Qian carried a jar in his hand, and Quan Dong carried a roast rabbit in his hand.
The two men walked in one after the other, and they both saluted them with fists in a gesture of greeting. Xu Miao pointed to the position on the side and said:
"No outsiders, you two are also confidants who were born and died with me. Let's sit down and eat together. ”
"Yes."
The two of them did not refuse, saluted again, and sat down in their robes.
There are a lot of dishes on the table, and I can't waste it, so it's good to have two more people to eat. For a meal, Xu Miao also drank a cup of daughter red, although they persuaded her not to get along, but no one could resist her.
After they had eaten and drunk, they went back to their houses to rest. Xu Miao bathed and cleansed, and was served by the new girl. When she rubbed in the bath, she was really hard, and she couldn't stand it anymore for someone like her who could bear the pain.
Sitting in front of the dresser, watching her clumsy combing of her hair, he took the initiative to reach out and take off the two silver hairpins and put them in the box. After everything was cleaned up, Xu Miao kicked her out. Originally, Erya was going to keep a vigil for her, but she didn't need it at all.
She is used to sleeping by herself, and she is not used to green lotus, no one. Lying alone in bed, I couldn't sleep for a long time. As soon as I closed my eyes, the scene of that day appeared in front of me, lingering.
I don't know when she fell asleep, but in a daze, she noticed that someone touched her. Xiao Nizi opened her eyes vigilantly, and after seeing the person in front of her clearly, she sat up in one go, stretched out her hand and hugged him directly, sighed lightly, and said:
"Didn't you say that twenty-four would arrive? How did it get now? ”
"It's past the hour." Qin Wuye hugged her and talked about the time.
When the child passed, it was not the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month.
Xu Miao chuckled in his arms, his fingers wrapped around his belt, and he looked up and asked:
"I haven't eaten it!"
"Hmm." The fifth master nodded and did not hide it.
Xu Miao lifted the quilt and went to the ground, but was stopped by him, shook his head and said, "No need, don't do it so late, you're not in good health." ”
"It's okay, let me go. Everything is ready-made, good for a while. With that, he gave him a light kiss on the chin.
Taking advantage of the fifth master's stunned efforts, Xu Miao went out with his shoes on. When I came to the kitchen, the mother-in-law who was keeping vigil was napping there, and when I heard footsteps, I quickly opened my eyes. Seeing the person coming clearly, he hurriedly stood up straight.
Xu Miao waved her hand, signaling her not to panic, and said in a good mood:
"Don't panic, I'm hungry and want to get some food for myself, you can help me light the fire."
In the face of such a talkative girl, the mother-in-law was a little flattered, nodded woodenly, came to the stove and squatted down, and said while lighting the fire:
"The girl is in a good mood."
Xu Miao picked up a few balls with a bowl, and when she heard her say this, she nodded and admitted:
"Not bad."
There were wrapped ravioli in the kitchen, and the filling was made by herself. Two days ago, she had ordered her mother-in-law to wrap it up so that she could eat it. During the Chinese New Year, he is busy with everyone.
It's not easy to take the time to come over and accompany her for the New Year. On the road, he walked day and night, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be a time in the middle of the night when you come here, and you will have enough things, and it will be convenient to do it when the time comes.
Cook the wontons, take them out directly and put them in a large bowl, make a new meatball soup, and pour them into the wontons. Sprinkle with coriander, shallots, and two drops of sesame oil. The mother-in-law came over, curtsied, and said:
"Girl, I'll bring it back for you."
Xu Miao shook her head when she heard this, "No, I can do it myself, you can rest." ”
With that, he put the bowl on the tray and walked out of the kitchen. The mother-in-law looked at her back and didn't move for a long time. The fire in the stove was still burning, if it weren't for the cauldron that hadn't been brushed, she would have felt that she was dreaming, and Miss Mengxu's attitude was so good......
……
Xu Miao returned to the room, and the fifth master was sitting at the round table drinking tea. Walked over and put the tray down, then put the bowl in front of him, and said:
"Let's eat, I made the filling of the wontons, and I wrapped it two days ago, for fear that you would suddenly arrive in the middle of the night."
When Qin Wuye heard such warm words, he reached out to hold her plain hand, and said with a smile:
"It's still a lady who knows how to hurt her husband."
When no one is around, the two of them call each other that, get close, and enhance their relationship. After Xu Miao sat down, leaned on him and asked sweetly:
"How long can you stay when you come back this time?"
