Chapter 264: Cover Six Shops and Six Covers
After Josie finished teaching Qiao Zhu, she returned home and slept on the kang with incense.
The weather is getting cooler day by day, and in a few days, the thin quilt will be put away and replaced with a thick quilt.
The winter in the village was not good, and she relied on cotton clothes, quilts and charcoal fires to survive, and Josie pondered, taking some money out and making a few new quilts and new cotton jackets.
Qiao Nan and Qiao Bei are both covered with quilts from many years ago, and there is no heat at all.
The next day, she told Qiao's mother her idea.
After hearing this, Qiao's mother immediately said: "You don't have to worry about making quilts, I'll find someone to do it and make you six new quilts." ”
"Six beds?" Josie almost squirted out a mouthful of water: "Mom, what are you doing so much!" ”
Qiao's mother should have said: "Give you a dowry, I heard that those people in the town with good conditions are all dowry six shops and six covers, and my mother will also give you the whole one." ”
In the past half a year, relying on Josie's special skills in picking vegetables and digging astragalus, the family conditions are very rich, and it is not difficult to pay for six shops and six covers.
Josie shook her head decisively: "Mom, we're not in town, so let's stop doing so much." If the other girls in the village marry anything, you can get me the same. ”
She doesn't like to be in the limelight.
Qiao's mother has always respected Josie's opinion and asked, "You mean, make it the same as last time?" ”
Josie was momentarily stunned.
Only then did she remember that half a year ago, Qiao's mother had already prepared a marriage for her.
I forgot about it.
It seems that her recent life has been so sweet that she completely forgot that she almost married Yang Wenqing.
"It's better not to be the same as last time, we have money in our hands now, let's be more generous." Qiao's mother glanced at the sluggishness on Josie's face, and hurriedly said, "Mom will marry you more, let Qin Jiashu be more generous, and we both have a bright face." ”
Josie pursed her lips: "It's okay, but the six-bed quilt is too much, and it's been a long time, and it's all broken." ”
Qiao's mother didn't say anything, and said vaguely: "Anyway, I'll get it, and when Qin Jiashu finishes proposing, I'll start preparing for you." ”
That being said, on the way to work in the fields that day, Qiao's mother began to inquire about which brigade the cotton workers had recently arrived.
The women in the village are all from the past, and when they hear it, they know that this is a happy event.
Someone said: "Before Xixi wanted to marry Yang Wenqing, didn't you make two new quilts, which were not used at the time, and you still want to do them now?" ”
Qiao's mother was not happy when she heard it, and hummed: "Those two quilts are unlucky, I have already dismantled them, and I must make a new one, a new cotton and a new quilt!" ”
Others didn't dare to touch her moldy head, and asked with a smile: "How many beds do you make this time?" ”
Qiao's mother didn't answer the number, but she also expressed her attitude: "Wait and see, it must be better than last time!" ”
Yang Wenqing, who was walking not far away, heard Qiao's mother's words, and his eyes were red with envy.
Such a generous mother-in-law should have been his.
It's a pity that it's cheaper for Qin Jiashu's kid.
The hoe was a little heavy, Yang Wenqing couldn't carry it, put it down to rest, and watched Qiao's mother walking farther and farther while chatting.
He sighed.
These days, in order to save the reputation ruined with Qiao Zhu, he works in the fields every day, pretending to be diligent and likable.
In this way, even if people talk about it, they will think that he is actually not bad, there is nothing wrong, and most of the problems lie with Qiao Zhu.
He will also be able to get rid of Qiao Zhu.
A woman like Qiao Zhu can just play outside, and if she wants to marry home, it is too troublesome and not cost-effective.
The object of marriage is still Josie's best.
Although he was a little creepy at the thought of Qin Jiashu, he believed that opportunities were created by people, and he was not hopeless.
Josie also liked him in the past, maybe one day he felt that Qin Jiashu was not good, and he remembered his goodness again.
Yang Wenqing thought so and cheered up again.
After arriving in the field, he spent hours grinding foreign labor, and he planned to go home and sleep.
Shouldering the hoe and preparing to leave, the sound of women talking suddenly sounded around him.
He looked up suspiciously and saw Qiao Zhu walking over.
Qiao Zhu approached, and his blue and purple face wrinkled and smiled.
Yang Wenqing's face immediately sank, and he lowered his voice: "What are you doing here?" ”
"If you don't come to me, I have to come to you." Qiao Zhu shook his waist twistedly: "Wenqing, I have something to tell you." ”
Feeling the sight from all directions, Yang Wenqing's face was very burning.
At the same time, angry.
He has been doing his old work for a few days, and when Qiao Zhu came today, he was busy in vain.
"You go back first, I'm working, I'll look for you when I'm free." Yang Wenqing hurriedly sent Qiao Zhu away.
But where is Qiao Zhu so easy to dismiss, since she is cheeky, she must complete her purpose.
"Wen Qing, I just saw that you were leaving, let's go together, you work hard, I'll cook for you when you go back."
“……”
Qiao Zhu saw that Yang Wenqing was reluctant to go, gritted his teeth, and raised his voice: "Wenqing, I have something to tell you about marriage." ”
Yang Wenqing's eyes suddenly widened and he was frightened.
"Don't talk about it here." He hurriedly spoke up and stopped Qiao Zhu: "If you have anything to say, let's talk slowly on the way back." ”
The corners of Qiao Zhu's mouth were hooked, very satisfied.
……
On the way, Yang Wenqing listened to Qiao Zhu's proposal to get married as soon as possible, and refused in one breath.
"No, I don't want to get married so soon."
"But Josie and Qin Jiashu are going to get married, if you and I don't get married soon, what will others say about us at that time?"
Yang Wenqing didn't care what others said, anyway, he didn't plan to marry Qiao Zhu.
Before, it was half-pushed, half-done, but now he is firm.
Qiao Zhu saw Yang Wenqing's resistance, stopped, and his eyes became gloomy: "Wenqing, don't you plan to marry me?" ”
Yang Wenqing was taken aback and hurriedly explained: "How is it possible, I never thought about it that way. ”
"And what do you think?"
"I ......" Yang Wenqing didn't want to look at Qiao Zhu's swollen ugly face, and his eyes fell on Qiao Zhu's erect chest, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, he began to fool Qiao Zhu: "I think that marriage is a major event in life, you can't be sloppy, you have to take it step by step, it's not as simple as you think." You don't want to get married on your own, do you? ”
Qiao Zhu was immediately a little happy: "Of course, I hope that I will marry beautifully." ”
"That's it, I also hope to marry you." Yang Wenqing looked left and right at no one, and put his hand on Qiao Zhu's shoulder: "You give me some time, okay?" ”
"Okay." Qiao Zhu took the initiative to lean in, and she knew that Yang Wenqing liked herself.
She flattened her mouth: "Wen Qing, it's not that I want to force you, it's just that I don't want to be compared to Josie and Qin Jiashu, you should be able to understand me." ”
Yang Wenqing narrowed his eyes and looked gloomy: "Of course, I completely understand your ......"
