Ah Niu's family was really as poor and dilapidated as Manager Wei said, and the two grass houses were shivering in the cold wind. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Suddenly, a few distinguished guests came, and Ah Niu's family was both surprised and frightened, and even the neighbors were curiously probing their brains in front of the fence made of stones in his house.

Ruo Tan put on a red cloak embroidered with flowers, put on the snow hat on the cloak, covering most of her face, not facing her head-on, and couldn't see her appearance at all.

Ah Niu's father is the head of the family, and asked cautiously, "Who is Miss?

Zichen spoke first: "Uncle, can you come into the house to talk, my sister can't help the cold wind blowing." ”

Ah Niu's father was reminded, just thought of this, the Zhuang family was honest, and suddenly his face was full of guilt, while compensating for it, he turned back and yelled at his wife and daughter: "Don't dare to go into the house to clean up!"

A middle-aged woman rushed into the house with two girls of twelve or thirteen years old, all dressed in tattered clothes, and it was already winter, but they were all wearing only jackets.

Ruochen and Zichen walked into the house with the red fragrant green jade with the old man and Ah Niu, and saw two little boys less than ten years old in the corner of the outside of the house, the clothes on their bodies were too thin, they were so cold that their noses were dripping, and they kept sucking, and a pair of dark and clear eyes looked at her with fear and novelty.

If you secretly regret it, you should bring some snacks when you go out.

The house was surrounded by four walls, except for a large earthen kang and some rotten cabinets, but it was very clean, but the middle-aged woman and the three girls still hurriedly cleaned up, and then stood shyly in the corner.

There was no fire in the earthen kang, and the inside of the house was not much warmer than the outside.

Ah Niu's family was very uneasy, and felt that the house was too dilapidated and too condescending.

Ruo Tan didn't care, sat on the kang freely, and said slowly: "I came to be entrusted by Sister Shihua, and asked Brother Niu if he is still willing to marry her?"

The whole family was stunned, but they didn't expect Ruo Tan to come to their shabby home in such a shabby house against the cold wind, and they had mixed feelings for a while.

Ah Niu snorted: "I must be willing...... Miss also saw it, my family is so poor, where can I afford to marry?

Even if the flowers don't care, they are willing to be wronged, and they simply enter the door, but there must always be silver to redeem her, where can I find this silver?

Besides, if she marries her and lives a hard life with me, I am sorry for her, although she is a slave in someone else's house, at least she has enough food to eat, at least she can dress warmly, what can I give her? It is better to throw away her hand and let her find a good family to marry, than to follow me. ”

Ah Niu lowered his head with red eyes, and the others were also miserable.

Ruo Chen's heart is cold, it's not worth picking up flowers, she is full of tenderness, she just wants to be with her beloved, she doesn't care about anything else, but Ah Niu doesn't know her heart at all, and thinks that she is great and good for her.

The light in Ruo Chen's eyes became colder, and he forced his eyes to look at Ah Niu: "It's because of those reasons that you moved your family to hide from Sister Picking Flowers?"

"No!" Ah Niu waved his hand again and again in a panic, "It was my grandfather and grandmother who died of illness one after another, and I had a lot of debts, so I had to sell the few acres of thin fields and houses in the family to pay debts, and the family had nowhere to live, so I moved here." ”

Ruo Tan said in a low voice: "Sister Shihua told me that she only wants to marry you in this life, if you insist on refusing to marry her, she will also be a girl, and she will naturally not burrow into your house with a dead face, and spend her life alone without marrying." ”

Ah Niu's eyes widened in shock, although the man did not flick when he had tears, but at this time tears were like rain.

"Let me ask you again, are you willing to marry Sister Shihua?"

Ah Niu nodded heavily, nodded and nodded, and wiped his tears fiercely: "I will go to the Yellow River tomorrow to pull fiber to earn money to redeem her!"

Ruo Tan listened, his face finally softened, and he said softly: "This is not necessary, I will redeem Sister Shihua to come out." Ming Hongxiang said: "Bring the silver." ”

Hongxiang stepped forward and presented a small cloth bag.

Ruo Tan put the small cloth bag on the rotten table on the kang, and said to Ah Niu: "This is a hundred taels of silver, you take it to buy a few acres of land, build two more houses, and prepare to marry Sister Shihua in a few days." Then he got up and prepared to leave.

Ah Niu's family was so moved that they didn't know what to do.

The cow mother kept wiping the corners of her eyes with the placket of her clothes and said, "The young lady came to our house and didn't even drink a cup of hot tea."

It's not that we're lazy, it's that we don't even have tea at home. ”

Ruochen only smiled gently.

The family sent her to the carriage, and when she got into the car, Ruo Tan said to Ah Niu: "Sister Shihua has also suffered as a slave in other people's homes, and her body is like duckweed with nowhere to take root, I just hope that you can give her a home, and Hugh will bear her again." ”

Ah Niu nodded ashamedly.

A few of them got into the carriage and drove back.

Halfway through, it suddenly snowed heavily with goose feathers, Ruo Tan had always liked snowy days, stopped the carriage, and walked down in the snow by himself, Zichen followed her and walked beside her to block the wind and snow for her, and the snow on her shoulders was quietly accompanied by her.

Ruo Tan suddenly turned around, staring at Zichen with crystal clear eyes as clear as morning dew in the mountains, seeing the snow at his end, he expected that he was also a white snow, and muttered: "The frost and snow blow all over the head, it can be regarded as a white head, Brother Chen, remember, I have also been white with you." ”

She smiled hard at him, and turned around, tears rolling down her cheeks, wiping them as she hurried toward the carriage.

Zichen was slightly stunned and followed behind her in silence.

The two got into the car, Zichen secretly looked at Ruochen, although she was not as lively and sweet as in the past by his side, but she was very tranquil, she was like this most of the time, she couldn't see anything unusual, but just now she clearly felt very sad.

...... Could it be that if you care, you will be confused, and you will think too much?

When the carriage arrived at Fang's mansion, it was already the hour of the lantern, and the family guards at the gate of the mansion saw that Miss Tan was back, so they all jumped up from the stool, greeted her, and said, "If Miss doesn't come back, it's going to explode." ”

If you know that the old lady is in a hurry, she hurriedly walks towards Rongxi Hall with Zichen and the two girls.

As soon as I entered the courtyard of Rongxi Hall, the girls under the verandah saw it, clapped their hands and said, "Our little phoenix has finally returned to the nest!" and then turned around to report.

Ruo Tan and a few walked to the banquet place, a maid had already opened the curtain, the red fragrance and green jade stopped, and Ruo Tan and Zichen walked in.

The old lady was worried before, and said fiercely that when Ruochen came back, she should teach her a good lesson, otherwise a girl's temperament is too wild, and it will be difficult to come back when she goes out.

But when they met, only those who were full of joy took her hand and asked for warmth, but they scolded Zichen and Hongxiang Luyu bitterly.

Then he smiled and said to Ruo Chen: "It snowed for the first time this year today, and it happened that our family's Xiang Zhuangtou sent dozens of goats, and I specially ordered someone to make mutton hot pot, just waiting for you to come back and eat." (To be continued.) )
