Volume 1 Mountain Village Chapter 43: New Peach for Old Talisman
As soon as Ye Luo arrived home with September in his arms, he saw that the eldest girl was already standing outside the gate, obviously having been waiting for a long time.
But the big girl didn't mean to be impatient at all, and naturally some of the food she brought in her hands was indispensable.
Seeing the two of them coming back, the eldest girl immediately greeted her, and she didn't want to talk to Ye Luo more, so she took the food in her hand and threw it to Ye Luo, and then entered the yard.
In September, I was naturally very happy to see the big girl come to find me.
Ye Luo saw that the girl looked cold to herself, but she chatted with September, and immediately smiled bitterly.
From the time when Zizi left to the time when Ye Luo's injuries were not healed, the big girl often came to take care of Ye Luo and September.
Ye Luo was injured at first, and felt that it was reasonable for the girl to come diligently, so he didn't say anything.
But after Ye Luo fully recovered, although the big girl didn't come as often as before, she didn't run home less, and often brought some food and some gadgets she sewed for September to play.
When Po Zhang was still alive, she persuaded Ye Luo more than once to marry the eldest girl.
What Mrs. Zhang said is also very straightforward, she is still young in September, and she can't live without her mother.
I will always grow old when I am old, and this family needs a hostess.
Seeing that the big girl also really likes September and likes Ye Luo, so she simply let Ye Luo go to Blacksmith Zhang's house to propose.
Although Ye Luo still has a child, but the eldest girl of Zhang Blacksmith's family is indeed "simple", fortunately, she is really kind-hearted, Ye Luo went to propose marriage, and Zhang Blacksmith should not find fault.
Ye Luo rejected Mrs. Zhang again and again, and there were many reasons for either Zizi had just left and wanted to keep filial piety for three years, or she dragged her family and brought her mouth to be worthy of other people's yellow flower daughters.
Ye Luo also knows about Zhang Po's proposal and the heart expressed by the big girl.
But!
Not to mention that Zizi is still alive, that is, Zizi is really gone, and Ye Luo should not remarry, which has nothing to do with the beauty and ugliness of the big girl.
Maybe ten or twenty years later, he will marry again, but at least not now, at least Ye Luo will not think about these things until he grows up in September.
Once, Ye Cheng couldn't stand the big girl running to his house every day, so he pulled the big girl aside, and resolutely expressed that he didn't like the big girl, and he wouldn't find a stepmother for September.
In the end, he euphemistically expressed his hope that the girl would stop pestering herself.
At first, the girl saw Ye Luo calling herself alone to a place where there was no one, and she thought that Ye Luo suddenly opened her mind and wanted to say something quiet.
But when Ye Luo finished speaking, the big girl was so angry that she almost beat this guy again.
But in the end, he couldn't help but not expose it, gave Ye Luo a big white eye, and then turned around and left, still chic.
Since then, the number of times the big girl comes to Ye Luo's house has decreased a lot, and even if she comes, she goes directly to find September and Zhang Po, and when she sees Ye Luo, she doesn't care if she doesn't see this person.
Towards the end of the year, the number of big girls coming is becoming more and more frequent.
Ye Luo wanted to emphasize something more with the big girl, but the big girl didn't look for Ye Luo every time.
Unless necessary, he didn't even want to say a word, and Ye Luo could only give up.
After all, it is much more convenient for someone to take care of September than for a big man himself.
Some girls' things, Ye Luo always does it big, and he doesn't know how to start.
Take hair care as an example, when Po Zhang was there in the past, Xiao Jiu's hair was always neat, and some beautiful headdresses were also tied just right.
After Zhang Po left, she wanted to restore the hairstyle that Zhang Po tied for September, which was even more difficult.
But fortunately, the big girl came over every once in a while to help September take care of her hair, and sometimes even braided some small braids, with September's delicate little face, which was extremely cute.
Anyway, the big girl just pulled September's hair to the top of her head, and she looked many times better than Ye Luo herself.
Ye Luo was also secretly surprised, this big girl looked at the thick branches and leaves, and she was really a little meticulous when she did women's things.
Ye Luo finally had to admit that as long as she was a woman, she would definitely be a man who would take care of her children better than herself, this is a woman's innate advantage, and she can't compare.
In the blink of an eye, it's the end of the year.
Ye Luo changed the couplet at home early, and before it was dark, he prepared for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
The big girl took September to hide in the house to avoid the sound of firecrackers, and the two closed the door in the house, chattering so unhappy.
Before it was dark, Ye Luo had already brought the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to the table.
This year, there are still no firecrackers and fireworks at home, Ye Luo still prepared four pairs of dishes and chopsticks, his parents' have been dispensed with, and Zhang Po's has to stay.
I specially prepared a pair for the big girl today, and as for whether the big girl herself is willing to stay for dinner, it depends on her own wishes.
But the girl did take care of September, and these favors always had to be returned, and she just prepared more double bowls and chopsticks, and did it casually.
Ye Luo knocked on the door of the two of them, smiled and shouted, "It's time to eat."
When the big girl saw Ye falling in, she was a little reluctant to look at the happy September who was playing, and gently picked up September and said softly: "Little September, my aunt is going home, and I will come to see you later." ”
September was playing happily, and suddenly heard that Aunt Da Niu was leaving, and just wanted to beg Aunt to stay, but suddenly thought of something, looked at the father at the door, held back the reluctance in his heart, nodded aggrievedly:
"Well, my aunt must come and see me sooner. ”
When Ye Luo saw the pitiful appearance of September, he immediately couldn't bear it, and hurriedly said to the big girl:
"You stay, I'll prepare the dishes and chopsticks for you, it's not completely dark yet, you go back after eating, Uncle Zhang won't say anything if you want to come." ”
After listening to this, the girl paused, hesitated for a moment, and ignored Ye Luo, hugged September and said:
"Let's go, little September, my aunt will feed you. After saying that, he went to the hall with September in his arms.
Almost at the same time, in Blacksmith Zhang's shop, Blacksmith Zhang suddenly became angry.
scolded and kicked over the low stool next to his feet, obviously angry, and could vaguely hear the words of the girl who was not staying, and the girl who had grown up and forgot her father.
Back to the leaves of the house.
The three of them sat down, and Ye Luo sat in the position facing the door, which was previously Ye Luo's father's position.
The big girl sat on the left hand side of Ye Luo, and a small horse stool was placed next to her, on which sat September, close to the big girl.
Because it was Chinese New Year's Eve, the meal was much more hearty than usual.
Five stir-fried dishes, each with its own characteristics, plus a braised carp, this is a must-have dish for Ye Luo's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
The three of them quickly began to eat, and Ye Luo gulped down the rice in the bowl.
The snow-white rice, paired with sweet sweet potato grains, tastes glutinous and sweet, which has always been Ye Luo's favorite.
The big girl is picking fish bones for September at this time.
The thorns were carefully picked out by the big girl, and after repeatedly confirming that there were no fish bones, they were fed to September one by one.
Ye Luo saw that the girl didn't eat much, so he said:
"See you haven't eaten much, don't have an appetite?"
"In the past, my mother cooked, but after my father and mother left, my mother-in-law was old, so I started to cook, and I couldn't eat it before, but now it should be good, it shouldn't be unpalatable. ”
Ye Luo said with a smile.
"Delicious, not too hungry. The big girl still didn't look at Ye Luo, and replied.
The three of them soon had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Ye Luo was afraid that Blacksmith Zhang would be worried, and was about to let the big girl go back quickly, but unexpectedly, the big girl who was playing in September suddenly turned around, and said to Ye Luo with a not very kind face:
"It's okay, my dad knows I'm here, and when he went out, he told him he would come back later. ”
After hearing this, Ye Luo scratched his head in embarrassment.
The three of them soon returned to Ye Luo's house, Ye Luo brought a carbon stove, put it near the door, and began this year's New Year's vigil.
I didn't have much fun with the big girl in September, so I fell asleep quickly.
The room suddenly became quiet, and Ye Luo could even hear his own breathing.
Just when Ye Luo didn't know what to say, he suddenly heard the big girl say, "I'm leaving!"
"Well, I'll send you?" Ye Luo replied.
"We're going back to where we were. The big girl lowered her head, and she couldn't see what her face was like at this time.
"Huh?!"
Ye Luo was taken aback, she thought that the big girl was talking about going home.
Ye Luo suddenly heard the big girl say that she was leaving the village, and she didn't know how to answer, and the two were silent for a long time.
Ye Luo opened his mouth and said: "That's good, the outside world should be very exciting." ”
When the girl heard Ye Luo's answer, she suddenly raised her head, her face was a little expressionless, a little angry, a little disappointed, and seemed to be a little reluctant.
The big girl just looked at Ye Luo with three or four breaths, and she didn't know what to think about.
Then he stood up sharply and walked to the door, but he did not go out.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally pushed open the door and decided to leave, and suddenly said the moment he stepped out of the door:
"In the future, if... You can get out of the village, I hope we can meet again, and remember to carry the dagger I gave you with you. ”
After the girl finished speaking, she pushed the door and left.
Ye Luo didn't seem to react, and replied casually: "Yes." ”
When the leaf hysteria came, I just wanted to say that I was going to send the girl out, but I saw that the girl had already walked to the gate.
At this time, I don't know if it was dark or snowy, Ye Luo didn't really see it.
It seems that the big girl who is about to leave has suddenly lost a lot of weight, and she is still tall, but at this time, she still has the original tall and rough appearance.
Ye Luogang wanted to confirm carefully, but found that the big girl had already disappeared.
Ye Luo smiled awkwardly and shook his head randomly, thinking that he was too sleepy and dazzled.
Then he closed the door, left a small gap, and began the vigil.
There is a poem: "Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one." ”
