Chapter 22: Choosing a son-in-law
When the boy came to the chaos stall, Er Xiao had already been here for a long time.
San'er stepped forward and asked, "Where are you going, I thought you could come first." ”
Xiao Er looked around, and when he was about to reach lunch, several tables in the stall were already full, so he said, "I'll talk about it later, help my aunt first, business is good today." ”
When San'er heard this, he went to order the new guest. Aunt Cui, who was cooking chaos next to the stove, saw Xiaoer coming, and said while fishing for chaos: "Xiaoer, help my aunt bring the chaos on the case behind, I don't know why so many people came today." ”
The young man picked up a towel and put it on his shoulder, put it next to Aunt Cui with a curtain full of chaos, and said with a smile: "It's not good to have a lot of people, earn more money and keep it for Qin'er as a dowry, your mother's family is not decent." ”
Aunt Cui stretched out her hand to pick up the curtain and shook it gently, and the grains fell into the boiling water in the pot, the boiling water did not splash at all, and said with a smile: "Isn't it, if this dowry is enough, you will be the shopkeeper if you marry." ”
The girl on the side dish case said angrily when she heard this: "I haven't had any good words since I beat you this bad billet, and I will put some dumb medicine in your chaos for a while, and it can be regarded as your young lady and I have accumulated virtue and done good." ”
Xiao Er grimaced sideways and pursed his lips. Just as the girl raised her knife, another guest came in at the door.
Seeing this, the young man shook his towel and hurriedly stepped forward and said loudly: "Please come in the guest officer at the door, our boss lady is going to marry a girl today, and all chaos will be increased, increased." ”
Qin'er's eyebrows were upside down, and her silver teeth were itching with hatred, but she could only take the sauce meat and cold vegetarian in front of her as Xiaoer, and the two kitchen knives flew up and down.
Ah Da didn't seem to hear any words from beginning to end, and was busy uploading the cooked chaos and side dishes, and he didn't dare to look at the girl. Because honest people know that it is not right to say or do anything at this time, it is better to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Time flies by after all the diners have been sent away. Aunt Cui hung up the sign of closure, cooked a few dishes, scalded the pot of soju and sat at the table with Sanxiaowei.
Aunt Cui took the lead and said: "I heard that you boys have taken shit luck and got two cheap masters, this time the beauty is bad." ”
Xiao Er poured the warm wine for Aunt Cui and said with a smile: "Auntie is right, it's really shit luck, and I met a noble person in the past three days." ”
Aunt Cui rolled up her sleeves, held her chin with one hand and pondered and asked, "Er'er, tell your aunt what that noble man looks like." ”
Without waiting for Xiaoer to answer, San'er preemptively said: "That noble man, he is an old man with crane hair and a childish face, just like the old fairy in the portrait, by the way, he can still change his face." ”
Aunt Cui looked at Xiao Er when she heard this, and the latter nodded.
Xiao Er thought about it and said: "The old man pretended to be a firewood collector two days ago, pretending to be sick and fell at the gate of the temple, I saw it and saved it, and then went to the restaurant to show a shocking force, saying that he wanted to take me as an apprentice, and he agreed to see that the old man had such a ability." ”
Aunt Cui looked at Xiaoer meaningfully, and said with sincere joy: "I can see that you all have a future, my aunt is really happy for you, from the first time I saw you, I knew that this market was not a place for you to stay for a long time." ”
"Ever since you saved that fat man, I knew you were leaving, but I didn't expect it to be so soon, and my aunt really couldn't bear the two of you at this time. ”
The most sad time to part, let alone the people who have been with each other for many years. The girl looked at the sturdy young man who was beginning to show his heroic spirit in her eyes, and her heart was full of words, but the words fell silent, and Danfeng's beautiful eyes faintly rippled, which made the young man sitting on the opposite side feel tormented.
San'er pouted, her eyes were slightly red, and she said, "Auntie, I'm not leaving, I'll accompany you." ”
The young man was aggrieved and tearful, and his cute appearance reduced the thick sadness of parting, and everyone laughed.
Aunt Cui hugged the young man and said with a smile: "You two go, I still have three sons, and the three sons make the aunt's little padded jacket." ”
When the young man heard this, he hurriedly said: "I'm not a little girl, I'm not a little padded jacket." ”
Aunt Cui raised her hand and grabbed her chin and laughed, "Then what are you?" ”
The young man instantly held his head high and said, "Manly." ”
After a while, after eating, Aunt Cui changed her previous hip-hop appearance and said seriously: "Ah Da, Xiao Er, blessings and misfortunes depend on them, and disasters and blessings are caused, you are all suffering, you should cherish the hard-won opportunity, and you should save the old man who pretended to be sick today, you should understand that you must have good thoughts at any time." ”
The two nodded yes when they heard this, Xiao Er called San'er to come, and Sanxiao got up and stood in a row to "plop" and knelt on the ground, saying: "Auntie, if he didn't have your wontons in the future, I would have starved to death on the streets, how can I have today's chance." Over the years, you have always helped the four of us, although Ji'er is not here today, but we will also take her to kowtow to you. The great grace is unforgettable, please accept my waiting. With that, the three little ones kowtowed upwards in unison.
Aunt Cui couldn't help but feel a little moist when she saw this, recalling the child she saw for the first time in tattered clothes and with a thin yellow face, who seemed to be a beggar but couldn't beg, but when she met someone, she just stretched out her hand, unlike other beggars who were full of New Year's greetings when they begged for money. How could he get money to eat, and finally walked to his stall and fainted from hunger. But today's child has become such a smart and intelligent teenager, which is really embarrassing.
Raised his hand and gently wiped his eyes and came back from the past, and said with a slight cry: "You boys, you have made your aunt cry, hurry up and don't make the whole scene, and make a few more Shu brocade clothes for your aunt to show your filial piety." ”
Sanxiao stood up, and Peach Blossom Meimu walked up to Aunt Cui and said, "Auntie, when I become an official in the future, I will buy you and Sister Qin'er a lot of beautiful clothes, do you say okay?"
Aunt Cui took him into her arms and said angrily: "It's still my third son who is the most well-behaved, especially the wooden stake, you just leave like this, what should my family do with Qin'er?"
Qin'er, who was beside her, said angrily: "Mother, what do you say." After speaking, he looked down and fiddled with the corners of his clothes with a shy face, and looked up from time to time to look at Ah Da.
Ah Da's face turned purple in an instant, cold sweat flowed from his forehead, and he turned his head to look at Xiaoer.
When Aunt Cui saw that she was looking for someone to break the siege, she immediately thought to him: "Xiaoer, you come over for me, and now you are not allowed to talk to him." ”
Xiao Er looked at Ah Da who was frozen on the spot, spread his hands, smiled bitterly, and raised his legs to walk towards Aunt Cui.
Seeing that the only savior was also leaving him, Ah Da didn't know how to answer in his heart, raised his hand and scratched his head and thought for a moment, as if he had made up his mind: "Qin'er, we will leave the Dragon King Temple tomorrow morning, I have something I want to send you, and I have something to say to you, you, can you come and send me?"
After saying this, the young man seemed to have fought ten times with those eight evil beggars, and in an instant, his whole body suddenly felt depleted, and the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat. ”
When the girl heard this, her eyes were shy, and she nodded slightly.
San'er, who was held in his arms, jumped up and smiled: "What to give?
Ah Dahu was stunned, stepped forward and grabbed the young man's belt and lifted it up, "You talk a lot." ”
Turning his head to Xiao Er, he said to Aunt Cui: "Auntie, the old man and Brother Nian are still waiting for us, so let's go first." "Ran away and walked out of the house with Momome Mime.
Xiaoji winked at the shy girl and followed.
Seeing Sanxiao go away, Aunt Cui smiled and said, "Girl, are you satisfied this time?"
The girl looked up and smiled, "This is not the son-in-law you picked?"
Aunt Cui pursed her mouth and said, "I picked it? Isn't this what you like? Do you think I don't know how much sauce meat I have secretly given Ah Da in the past few years?"
"Before I got married, my elbow turned outward, and losing money is losing money. Who made your mother's belly uncompetitive back then? He sighed as he spoke.
The girl did not show weakness, crossed her hands on her hips, and straightened her chest and said, "Are you satisfied this time?"
Aunt Cui's eyes were instantly full of smiles after hearing this, and she said happily: "Inheriting the iron sword, the teacher is open-minded, and there is a medicine elder*, he may really be able to become a sword immortal one day." ”
Turned around and pulled the girl over with a smug face: "Look at your mother's eyes, right?"
The girl said helplessly: "Accurate, your eyes are very vicious." ”
Aunt Cui also ignored the girl's words, and still smiled proudly: "In the future, I will have a sword fairy son-in-law, see who can bully our mother." ”
After a moment, he walked out of the house and touched the mask on his face.
Tears slowly fell.
