Chapter 20: To Leave People Behind
Whether to hand over the person to the village chief, the two mothers and daughters squatted aside and discussed for most of the day, and for the first time in these days, there was a disagreement.
Ye Chunni wanted to get rid of this troublesome essence in her heart, but conscience occupied the high ground of reason...... When I think that he was knocked stupid by himself, he can't do anything that he doesn't do.
At the very least, the person must be healed before being sent away.
"Chunni, we can't keep him."
Liang Liying said with a bitter face: "If the people in the village see that there is an extra strange man in our house, the rumors will drown you and me." ”
One of them was a widow and the other was a yellow flower girl, and there lived a young and strong man in their house, and I am afraid that the people outside would be as shameful as they were.
Not to mention that Ye Chunni is still riddled with scandals.
The rumors that are unclear with second-rate people have not passed, and with one more scandal, Ye Chunni never expected to find a good husband again in her life.
As a mother, Liang Liying cannot watch her daughter's reputation ruined.
"How much is fame worth?"
After listening to her mother's worries, Ye Chunni didn't care too much: "Mom, you think too much, I don't want to live in other people's mouths." ”
Can a good reputation that lives in other people's mouths be worthy of the conscience in her heart?
Ye Chunni's afterglow swept to the man who was watching the earthworm on the side, only to see him staring at the earthworm on the dustpan intently, as if he had never seen this creature, after a while, he couldn't help but stretch out his finger and poke it gently, then retracted it suddenly, looked at her in horror, and shouted.
"Sister, this thing is so soft, so scary!"
Ye Chunni silently retracted her gaze, how could a normal big man shout such sensual words?
She wanted to pinch him.
But she could only hold back, and repeated it silently in her heart: She is the one who beats the fool, and she must take the basic responsibility.
In other words, Liang Liying can let her daughter do it, but if she doesn't care about her reputation, she can't agree to it!
"Chunni, nothing in the village is as important as fame."
Liang Liying taught seriously: "Especially for us women, reputation is equivalent to our second life. A woman is riddled with scandals, and she will have a miserable life in this life. ”
Ye Chunni nodded very obediently.
Although she doesn't take her reputation seriously, she also knows to respect her mother's ideas. Even if it's wrong for my mother to care too much about other people's rumors, you can't immediately ask her to abandon the belief that she has held on to for half her life.
To change a person's ingrained thinking, you can only take it slowly, and rushing it will only backfire.
Ye Chunni's mouth responded, and her mind changed, since her mother attaches so much importance to fame, then she should simply start from this aspect.
"Mom, you're right, only the house of the two of us women is really not suitable for one more man."
"yes!"
Liang Liying thought that she had finally persuaded her daughter, so she stood up and turned her head to walk out the door, "Then I'll go to the village chief now and ask him to lead people away." ”
"Don't worry."
Ye Chunni took her mother's hand in time, "Mom, did you think about another question before looking for the village chief?" ”
"What's the problem?"
Liang Liying asked in confusion.
Now the biggest problem is that there is not a man in the house, as long as the person is sent away, it can be solved, what is the problem?
"He opened his mouth and closed his mouth to call Mom," Ye Chunni snorted at the man: "I believe you and know that he is a fool and screams." But if outsiders hear it, can they not think about it? ”
Liang Liying opened her mouth and couldn't say anything to refute.
She really didn't think about it, she was so bent on protecting her daughter's reputation that she really forgot about the man's nonsense.
"Man, we're definitely going to send it away."
Ye Chunni: "But now is not a good time, at least until he is not so stupid and will not open his mouth and close his mouth to call his mother." If he calls Mom, your reputation will also be damaged, and I am in the same vein as you, so naturally I will not end up well. ”
After Ye Chunni finished speaking, Shi Shiran picked up the basket and went to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots, leaving her mother alone in the house to figure it out.
--
On the way to dig bamboo shoots, Ye Chunni returned the bicycle to Granny Ding by the way.
Granny Ding was sweeping the yard with a big broom, and when she heard her voice, she didn't even raise her head, and carried out her indifference to the end.
After Ye Chunni pushed the bicycle back to its original place, she put down a bag of candied fruit with a smile, "Granny Ding, these candied fruits were bought in the city, thank you for your bicycle." ”
Because she borrowed a bicycle, she can come back early today, dig bamboo shoots and dig a little more, what is the money she earns to buy a pack or two of candied fruit to give away?
It wasn't until Ye Chunni walked away that Granny Ding looked up at her back, looked at the candied fruit again, and after a few seconds, she silently put away the candied fruit and continued to sweep the floor.
She doesn't like people, but don't eat in vain.
--
"Sister!"
As soon as Ye Chunni stepped into the bamboo forest with her front foot, there was a voice behind her that made people angry: "You don't take me with you to play!" ”
She paused, trying to find a place to hide quickly, but the people had already run behind her.
"Sister, what are you playing? I'm going to play too. ”
Ye Chunni looked up at him expressionlessly, "I want to dig bamboo shoots to make money, don't make trouble." ”
Such a big fool, what if he didn't watch it for a while, and there was an accident? She didn't want to take on any more responsibilities.
This time she looked up, Ye Chunni found out, yo ho, this product is quite high! A head taller than her.
If he hadn't lowered his head, she probably would only have seen his chin.
Looking at his resolute, smooth chin, coupled with the newly grown green stubble, he is obviously full of masculinity, but he is a fool.
A trace of shyness in the face of a man that quickly welled up in Ye Chunni's heart was defeated by his next sentence.
"What kind of game is bamboo shoots?"
"It's to dig a pit, and then dig out the spring bamboo shoots that can make money," Ye Chunni's voice was smooth, "and then bury the worthless game that you are going to make trouble again." ”
Probably hearing the threat in her words, the man shuddered involuntarily, "Sister, you are so scary." ”
Ye Chunni grinned: "Don't call me sister again!" Sister! ”
He is taller than her, and he looks older than her, but he keeps screaming from his sister and sister, and it makes people angry when he hears it.
"Don't call it sister," the man seemed to be frightened by her, and his two index fingers circled in front of him: "What do you want to call it?" ”
What is it called?
Ye Chunni really couldn't think of what to call for a while, she frowned, "Anyway, don't call me sister." ”
Then he ignored him and went straight to find the bamboo shoots.
The man followed behind, and when she was digging bamboo shoots, he quietly watched from the side, and she found the bamboo shoots and smiled, and he also grinned with big white teeth.
Ye Chunni turned around and just bumped into him with an innocent and bright smile, even if there was still a lot of dry tobacco on his forehead, it did not reduce his handsomeness at all, and there was a taste of a sunny little milk dog in the future.
Ye Chunni's heart suddenly moved, she stood up and beckoned to him, "You come here." ”
