"Can the woman who delivered it to the door be a good product?"

"You're a college student, and your family hasn't been admitted to college, how can you be worthy? If you dare to choose her today, I'll die for you! ”

"Qiao Qiao, if you love me, you should be considerate of me, don't keep pushing me."

“……”

The two voices alternated back and forth in Li Qiao's head, causing her a headache.

The eyes are confused and a slit is opened, and the black roof can be seen neatly arranged with reed poles.

She woke up suddenly.

There is an earthen wall, a hardboard bed, two large chests in the corner, and a long table by the window.

She was confused, where is this?

Shouldn't she accompany her cousin to burn incense in Yanjing Xiashan Temple to ask for marriage?

Fragmentary memories slowly seeped into her mind, and it took her a long time to piece together the current situation.

She crossed!

It is now the winter of 1977, and the original owner has the same name, surname, and age as her, and is 18 years old.

Not long ago, her childhood sweetheart forced the two to break up on the grounds that the original owner failed the college entrance examination and was not worthy of him, she couldn't think of jumping into the river, but fortunately she was rescued by Qin Jin from Fengjia Village next door.

The two came up from the river wet, many people bumped into each other, the rumors in the village spread badly, and the parents of the original owner asked Qin Jin to be responsible.

Qin Jin is a well-known bastard, and the murder is notorious, and on the day of marriage, he was arrested and arrested because he was drunk and picking quarrels and provoking trouble the day before.

The original owner passively thinks that there is no hope of living with this kind of person, and ends himself while others don't have a rope.

Just listen to the squeak.

The door opened from the outside, and the person who came was eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a navy blue cotton suit, with a slender and straight figure, and the visual inspection was about 188.

The black hair is thick, and the facial features are sharp and angular.

With a dead grass in her mouth, she was ruffian, and she didn't give her one in the right eye. "I heard from the neighbor that you are looking for death while I am not there? I want to stay away, bad luck! ”

Li Qiao was surprised, the original owner's husband? The appearance is so good, but it's a pity that it has a mouth.

At this time, an old lady over sixty years old rushed in from outside, medium height, and in good spirits, she jumped up and pulled his ear: "What are you talking about, dead boy?" ”

"Hiss ~ ...... pain"

"Get out!" Old Mrs. Qin made up for it again, put on a smiling face and said to Li Qiao: "Qiao Qiao, he can't speak, don't worry." ”

"Grandma, can't she come back to the door? I'm out playing. ”

Old Lady Qin was angry and roared: "You stay at home honestly for me!" She turned her head and said to Li Qiao lovingly again: "He dares to bully you when he returns to the door today, just tell me, I will definitely clean him up." ”

Li Qiao was in a complicated mood.

When the old lady left, she got up and tidied up her clothes, and then sat down in front of the mirror to comb her hair, frightened by the figure reflected in the mirror.

Sky! Except for the hairstyle and wear, that's what she looks like.

She couldn't figure it out, so she adjusted her mentality and sat back in front of the mirror to weave her heavy bangs into her hair, revealing her full forehead, tying two short braids with a hairband, and wearing a scarf to cover the strangulation marks in her neck.

I immediately went out and looked around, two earthen houses, with walls sticking out on both sides to form a small courtyard.

There is a shed on the left side, neatly arranged with kitchen and farm tools, and the floor is clean.

What about people?

After a moment's hesitation, she called out to her grandmother.

The girl's voice was soft and glutinous.

Qin Jin poked his head out of the next room, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The palm-sized goose egg face, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, the natural ruddy lip flap is slightly pursed, and the skin is pink and white.

Why didn't you find her so beautiful before?

I saw her smile at him sweetly: "I'm done." ”

The girl's bright smile dazzles the young man, and she knows how to please once she dies?

Too late!

How she verbally humiliated and insulted, her words are still in her ears.

He narrowed his cold eyes, suddenly looked away, stepped forward and stepped on the bicycle, and said impatiently: "Pack up and get on the car, grind and chirp!" ”

Li Qiao: "......" doesn't mean that you don't stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person? How could he have such an attitude?

She took a deep breath and said silently: I am generous, I don't bother with you old antiques.

She stepped forward and turned sideways, and just as she sat down, the car swished away, and she was so frightened that she hugged him with her backhand.

"What kind of hooligan are you playing in the blue sky and daytime?" The young man clapped her hands vigorously.

On the day of the wedding, the bride's feet couldn't touch the ground, he needed to carry her into the house, and he didn't know where to touch her with his hand, and she scolded him like this.

Li Qiao screamed in pain, shook the back of his numb hand, and suffocated until his delicate facial features were distorted.

The doors of the houses in the village are almost open, but there is no one in the courtyard or on the road.

When I got to the entrance of the village, I saw groups of children skating on the ice.

Aren't the adults in the village afraid that children will skate and fall into the river?

Li Qiao wanted to remind the child to stay away from the ice, but the young man's speed was too fast.

About 20 minutes.

Bicycles are parked in front of a farmer's house.

The three major earthen embryo houses come into view, the farm tools in the yard are arranged in a mess, and rotten vegetable leaves and firecracker crumbs are thrown on the ground at will.

Four women, young and old, and a boy in his teens went out to greet them.

Li Qiao's mind was blank, and he heard Qin Jin call the middle-aged woman, and then called the eldest sister and the second sister Jinhua, and the boy Jinniu, she called him as he called, and looked secretly.

The eldest sister is about twenty-five or sixteen years old, and the second sister is also in her early twenties.

Jinhua looks about the same age as herself, and Qin Jin calls Jinhua Jinniu's name, so it's her sister and brother?

In the middle of his eyes, he bumped into Jin Hua's eyes and stared at Qin Jin, who was handsome?

She looked at him too, and got a slap in the eye.

Li Qiao: "......"

After a few words of greeting, Li's father Li Shengcai and the other two sons-in-law walked out of the hall, their eyes skimmed over the cigarettes and alcohol sent by Qin Jin, and they smiled on their faces: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." I heard that you drink a lot, so I'll have a drink with you today. ”

Qin Jin was busy handing over cigarettes and saying polite words, and the smoke in the room was so thick that Li Qiao coughed, his brain hurt and hurt, and he used the excuse of going to the thatched house to go out to breathe.

Li's mother, Dong Lamei, caught up with her: "Third child, you will go to the village store to buy two packets of peanuts and come back for snacks later." She walked away.

Li Qiao was incredible, for the first time he heard that he went to his relatives to buy wine and food by himself.

Why did she buy so many people? She doesn't have any money.

She doesn't buy it!

She walked to the top of the mound not far from her home and looked around, the endless wilderness and low hills, the village was hidden, and if it weren't for the extra fragments of memories in her mind that didn't belong to her, she really thought that she had been abducted into some kind of poor pimple.

"Third sister."

Li Qiao looked back, it was Jinhua: "Is there something wrong?" ”

Li Jinhua's eyes flashed: "Third sister, Cai Hechuan privately found me and planned to take you outside to avoid the limelight today, and I will help you make an appointment." ”

Li Qiao was puzzled, the eldest girl, didn't she know that her sister running away with a man would also affect her reputation?

may be patronizing for her sake, but she can't be confused as a sister. "If I go with him, it will be difficult for you to find a good mother-in-law, you don't want to date that man, when I don't know him."

"Don't be angry, see you at the threshing floor." Li Jinhua ran away.

"Hey!" Li Qiao wanted to stop it, the pain of the sudden fall in the lower abdomen, wouldn't he come to the eldest aunt?

What should I do if I am penniless?

Li Qiao covered her aching stomach and came to the village store, where the salesman told her that the village did not sell sanitary napkins and gave her a wad of yellow table paper.
