There are some things that the speaker has no intention of, but the listener has a heart. The praise of Fang Mumu in the streets and alleys changed the attitude of the villagers towards her, but at the same time, it also caused her to face some problems that she had to face if she didn't study at her age: talking about marriage.

The afterglow of the setting sun is reflected on the tired backs of Yu Cai and Fang Mumu, two mothers and daughters, for Yu Cai, farmers who rely on the sky to appreciate their faces and eat on the ground, it is difficult to be idle in this season of winter. The land at home needs them to pick up a shovel and turn the soil little by little, to ensure that the next year's planting is good, although it is only a few acres of land, even if the two mothers and daughters work hard, but they are two women after all, their strength is limited, their energy is also limited, and they can turn over the land every day so much.

"Mom, slow down." Fang Mumu held Yu Cai, who was almost planted, and looked at Yu Cai worriedly, "Mom, don't go to the field on a cloudy day, I'll go alone, anyway, I'm almost done turning over the soil." ”

"How's that going to work?" Yu Cai glanced back at Fang Mumu, the yin and yin were already in winter, Fang Mumu, who had been working with her these days, was still tanned, looking at the black and thin Fang Mumu, she was very distressed, "You are a girl, how can you finish it." ”

"It's done, it's done!" Fang Mumu was anxious for her mother to recognize her ability, she wanted to prove that she could finish in front of her mother, so she squatted in front of Yu Cai and left her back to Yu Cai, "If you don't believe it, Mom, you come up, I can carry you on my back, so that you will know that I have the strength to do it." ”

Yu Cai smiled and patted Fang Mumu's back, "Okay, good!" You can do it! With that, Yu Cai stepped forward and pulled the squatting Fang Mumu up, took Fang Mumu's hand and continued to walk home, "But, you heard my mother say that my mother has planted crops for more than ten years, if I don't let me look at the soil in that year, I will always have a stone hanging in my heart, worrying about the crops." ”

"Okay." Listening to Yu Cai's reason, Fang Mumu could only compromise in discouragement, after all, there were some habitual behaviors that she could not change without saying a word, she could only secretly make up her mind in her heart, and slowly let her mother get used to having herself, in this way, when she said that she would work alone in the future, her mother would not be at ease.

Fang Mumu pushed open the big wooden door at home, and after helping Yu Cai into the door, she had just closed the door, ready to help Yu Cai into the kitchen, and then when she was preparing dinner, there was a knock on the door behind her.

"Who?" Fang Mumu and Yu Cai glanced at each other.

The people outside the door didn't have any response, but knocked on the door for the second time, Yu Cai and Fang Mumu thought that Fang Jian was back, so after Yu Cai handed Fang Mumu a look, Fang Mumu walked towards the kitchen, Yu Cai turned around and limped towards the door, "It's coming~"

"Sister Qi Qin?" The appearance of Qi Qin outside the door made Yu Cai somewhat surprised, this sister, who had a good relationship when she was unmarried, had not been in contact much since she gave birth to a child, and she didn't know what kind of wind blew Qi Qin here today, Yu Cai's heart began to mumble.

"Yu Cai, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are a lot more handsome!" Qi Qin's exaggerated laughter rang out, and as she spoke, a pair of eyes looked at the courtyard behind Yu Cai.

"Look at what I said, my sister is still beautiful." Yu Cai smiled politely, "Sister Qin, is this here to visit the door?" ”

"Yes, not really." Qi Qin put away her exaggerated smile and looked at Yu Cai meaningfully, "What?" Is this going to let my sister in? ”

"No... No. Yu Cai hurriedly made way for Qi Qin and invited Qi Qin, "Sister, come in quickly." ”

Qi Qin nodded and walked into the yard, her eyes were like the eyes of a foraging mouse, she looked around, and found that only the kitchen light was on, and she didn't wait for Yu Cai to let her, so she walked straight towards the kitchen.

Yu Cai closed the door and looked back, she chuckled in her heart, she had a very bad feeling, feeling that Qi Qin's special trip to the door this time must be related to Fang Mumu, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious in her heart: What could it be because of?

Yu Cai, who endured the pain in his legs and feet, quickly followed Qi Qin, blocked Qi Qin's way to the kitchen, and said with a smile, "Sister, let's go to the house and sit." ”

"I think the kitchen is fine." Qi Qin bypassed Yu Cai and continued to walk towards the kitchen.

"Sister, there is a lot of smoke in the kitchen, we are about to cook at this moment, and it is my sin to choke on my sister." Yu Cai hurriedly followed Qi Qin and pulled Qi Qin to the direction of the side house.

"Yu Cai, you're afraid you haven't hidden a man in the kitchen, right?" Qi Qin pretended to be surprised and asked with wide eyes, and then laughed again, "It's okay, even if it's really hidden, sister, I can't see clearly with my mouth and eyes, and I can't see it away." ”

Qi Qin pushed away Yu Cai and grabbed her hand, still stubbornly going to the kitchen, she is not really a family today, but has a serious matter, the main owner of this serious matter is in the kitchen, how could she follow Yu Cai into the side room.

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Yu Cai's face turned blue and white for a while by Qi Qin's words, she wanted to have a seizure, but it was not easy to have a seizure, so she could only keep a calm face and follow Qi Qin to the kitchen.

"Sister, I'm kidding, I'm in a hurry." Qi Qin glanced back at Yu Cai and continued to walk in the dinner kitchen.

Before Yu Cai walked in front of Qi Qin, the curtain of the kitchen door was lifted, Fang Mumu came out of it and collided with Qi Qin, Fang Mumu listened to the sound in the yard, and when she saw people, she nodded politely and said hello, "Hello, Auntie." ”

"Yo, Yu Cai, your girl has grown so big?" When Qi Qin was talking, his eyes were not idle, looking up and down at Fang Mumu who passed by him.

Yu Cai pulled out a hint of embarrassment, walked up to Qi Qin, lifted the kitchen curtain, and let Qi Qin into the kitchen, "Sister Qin, come in and sit." ”

"Okay." Qi Qin said and walked in the direction of the table where Yu Cai's finger was pointed, and she looked at the kitchen of Yu Cai's house as she walked, "Since you got married, I haven't been in this kitchen yet." ”

"There's nothing to see, so my sister smiled." Yu Cai followed Qi Qin and glanced at her own kitchen, she hadn't noticed it in the past, but when she looked at it today, she only felt that her kitchen was too small, and Qi Qin came alone, so she felt a little crowded.

"Look at what you say! Each kitchen has the appearance of each family, and you have a heart to clean up such a small place by you so neatly and cleanly. Qi Qin turned her head to look at Yu Cai, and sighed with a pretended smug expression, "It's not like the kitchen in my house, it's big, but it's hard to clean up..."

"Mom, the water is coming." Just as Qi Qin wanted to use this to boast about his kitchen, Fang Mumu came in from outside with a bucket of water, just interrupting Qi Qin.

"Okay, you just put it in front of the stove, and then you go to rest for a while, you don't have to work with your hands for dinner, I'll make it." Yu Cai kept giving Fang Mumu a look, she didn't want Fang Mumu to be angry when she heard Qi Qin's words, this kind of anger was enough for herself.

Fang Mumu originally wanted to say that she was not tired, looking at Yu Cai's appearance, she probably knew a little in her heart, nodded and said yes, and was about to go out, but was grabbed by Qi Qin, who got up from the stool and walked to her at some point.

"Look at you! What is it to be in a hurry to let your child avoid people? Qi Qin glanced at Yu Cai with disgust, and then pulled Fang Mumu and walked towards the table, "I haven't seen you for a few years, Mumu has already grown into a big girl, this looks even more handsome than your mother, but she has lost weight, and it would be better if she ate more round." ”

Fang Mumu lowered her head and listened with a smile, she secretly raised her eyes to look at her mother, wanting to ask her mother for help, when she saw the embarrassment on her mother's face, she lowered her eyebrows again, she thought to herself: Just listen like this, the soldiers will block, the water will cover up, and first see what her purpose is.

Qi Qin saw that none of Yu Cai and Fang Mumu responded, she was a little unhappy in her heart, and felt that Yu Cai and Fang Mumu, the mother and daughter, were too ignorant. But as soon as she thought of the purpose of her coming, the unhappiness in her heart was gradually suppressed, after all, business was important at this time.

Qi Qin grabbed Fang Mumu's hand and patted it lightly, looking at Yu Cai who was standing on the side, "Actually, I'm here for a great good thing this time." ”

The appearance of Qi Qin's eyebrows and smiling in front of her made Yu Cai's heart a little furious, she didn't think that Qi Qin was the kind of person who would share something good with her. She really didn't want to take Qi Qin's words, so after smiling awkwardly, she turned around and picked up the kettle on the stove and poured a bowl of cold water into the empty bowl.

"Sister, you drink some water first, my family has nothing to entertain, it just so happens that we haven't eaten yet, and we are about to cook, sister, you must stay and eat." Yu Cai had already started to do it when he was talking.

"Mumu, don't sit still, don't hurry up and come over to help." Yu Cai was working and shouting Fang Mumu.

"Hey, Mom, I'll come now." Fang Mumu was glad that she could finally escape from this embarrassing situation, but before she could stand up, she was pulled back to the stool again.

"Yu Cai, what do you say are you in a hurry at this moment?" Qi Qin's face changed instantly, if it weren't for the money, she really didn't want to come, "Is it because I don't like my eyes and is in a hurry to drive me away?" ”

"Sister, look at what you are talking about? There is no way to drive away guests. Yu Cai stopped what she was doing, and stood there with some uneasiness on her face, she knew that even if she didn't want to listen, she had to listen to it at this time.

"It's better not to drive me away." Qi Qin's face put a smile on her face again, "Actually, I didn't come this time to hang out, I was all entrusted by others, saying that the matchmaker came." ”

Yu Cai's face turned pale when she heard this, and she knew that Qi Qin, who had been hit by a thousand knives, wanted to stretch out her claws to Fang Mumu. If it was the previous era, Yu Cai might have been anxious about Fang Mumu's age when it was time to get married, but now they have entered a new era, the new era advocates late marriage and late childbearing, which is good for children, Mumu's age is just an adult in the words of the people in the city, and he is still young, and he doesn't know anything yet, but he was targeted by Qi Qin.

Before Yu Cai could attack, after listening to Qi Qin's words, Fang Mumu suddenly stood up and shook off Qi Qin's hand.

"Auntie, I salute you as a guest, if you come to say hello, I welcome you. If no one in your family cooks for dinner, I welcome it. But if you eat too many pickles and are purely idle and want to find something, then please go back. There are more girls in this village who are older than me and are not yet married. It really doesn't work, if you like to marry yourself. Fang Mumu's series of words Qi Qin's face was flushed, and she didn't wait for Qi Qin to say anything after she finished speaking, and walked out of the kitchen without looking back.
