Chapter 7: Misunderstanding
When Su Ying returned home, he saw his father checking the grain.
"Dad, I'm back."
Su Wenhai stood up and walked around the grain.
"Why did the Zhang family give food so happily this time? And this wheat grain is huge and full, it can't be what the Zhang family has done again, right? ”
Su Ying smiled and comforted: "Dad, you were bitten by a snake once, and you were afraid of the well rope for ten years." Don't worry, the food this time is not greasy. ”
"Then I'll be relieved."
Su Wenhai breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he thought of something happy, and his face turned into a ball of chrysanthemums.
"You went to Zhang's house just now, and as soon as you went out with your front foot, the kid from Shen Mo came over with your back foot. After hearing me say that you went to Zhang's house to collect rent, you ran out without saying a word. I still wondered what he was going to do in a hurry, but I didn't think about it, and after a while, the long-term workers of the Shen family sent food. ”
"This little kid has a lot of heart." Su Ying smiled and praised.
"Hahaha, Dad really didn't misunderstand this kid."
Su Wenhai was quite satisfied with the son-in-law he chose, and when he saw that his daughter went to the kitchen to work, he also followed.
"What did you say when you went to Zhang's house? Did they embarrass you? ”
Seeing that his father was worried that he would be bullied, Su Ying did not tell him about the embarrassment of the Zhang family and his wife, as usual chatting, and said in a flat tone: "Zhang Dayong is back." ”
"What, what? Dayong, back? ”
The news of Zhang Dayong's meritorious service spread in the village a few days ago.
The villagers were waiting for him to be escorted by the county on a tall horse wearing a battle robe and red flowers.
Unexpectedly, he came back so quietly.
Su Wenhai frowned, worried, and most worried that her daughter couldn't think about it.
"Girl—"
"I'm fine."
Su Ying knew that her father was not worried about her, so she gagged him first.
"Dad, before my daughter, my brain must have been kicked by a donkey, so I liked Zhang Dayong.
Now that I think about it, what's so good about him?
In terms of appearance, it is not as good as silence. On the family background, it is better than silence. He's just a little stronger.
It is said that 'the old cat slips through the eaves of the house, and the generations pass it down', you look at the virtue of his father and his stepmother, how good can his character be?
If you want to talk about character and family style, isn't the Shen family much better than them?
Even if I go to my in-laws, I will definitely be more optimistic about the Shen family. ”
"You really want to open it?" Su Wenhai breathed a sigh of relief.
"My daughter really wants to open it." Su Ying said firmly: "I think Shen Mo is ten thousand times better than Zhang Dayong!" ”
Just from the fact that Zhang Dayong failed his original body, Su Ying was not optimistic about him.
The words of the father and daughter were listened to word by word by Zhang Dayong, who was standing alone outside the door of the Su family.
When he thought of the shy and young little girl hiding behind her father before he left, secretly wiping tears and watching him, his heart was soft.
Although he didn't know when she would empathize and say goodbye to silence, although it was painful at the moment, he didn't want to let go and leave.
Take a deep breath and exhale a long breath of turbid air in your chest.
As if he had never heard Su Ying's words, Zhang Dayong smiled and knocked on the door of the Su family.
"Uncle, open the door, I'm Dayong, I'm back."
There was the sound of tables, chairs, and benches falling to the ground in the courtyard.
Suddenly, the door opened.
"It turned out to be a distinguished guest." Su Ying was not shocked, and there were no mood swings, he only took out the master's posture and politely led the person in, "Dad, Brother Dayong has come to see you." ”
What a strange feeling.
A polite tone.
The hope in Zhang Dayong's eyes flashed away, and the smile froze on his face.
Catching a glimpse of Su Wenhai coming over, he squeezed out a smile again and stepped forward to help.
"Uncle, I'm back. How are you doing these past few years? ”
"Okay, okay." Su Wenhai didn't know whether to hate or resent, or miss, in the end, he patted Zhang Dayong's shoulder, with mixed feelings, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Su Ying went to the kitchen, Zhang Dayong stared at her back for a while, and then entered the house with Su Wenhai.
"When I came back, I was in a hurry, so I didn't bother to stop and bring some things to my uncle." Zhang Dayong was very guilty, and promised again and again: "I will go to the county tomorrow and buy you two jars of good wine, and we will still have a good drink as before." ”
"It's good that you come back safely, it doesn't matter if you send me something or not." Su Wenhai was stunned, remembered something, and waved his hand again, "I haven't been in good health for the past two years, and I've quit drinking, so you can't break the bank." I heard that you have made meritorious contributions and made a difference, and my uncle is happy for you, more than you give me anything. ”
Originally, I thought that I must beat Zhang Dayong and get angry for my daughter, but at this time, people are in front of me, but Su Wenhai can't do it.
Zhang Dayong, who had accumulated a thousand words and was in a hurry to talk to the Su family's father and daughter as soon as he returned to the village, was silent at this time.
“……”
“……”
I haven't seen each other for five years, and the two people who were once as close as father and son didn't know what to say for a while.
After a long silence, Zhang Dayong opened his mouth first, "Uncle, I'm ...... Su Ying ......"
Fighting on the battlefield, I am not as nervous as I am now, stammering, and I can't even finish a sentence.
Raising his head, he drank the tea, and finally mustered up the courage to speak again, "Uncle, I was in a hurry to come over as soon as I got home, I just wanted to tell you something, I ...... with Su Ying."
"Dayong, hurry home, someone from the county is here, looking for you." Cai's face was full of joy and he broke in, no longer the dejected look of being robbed of food just now, and dragged Zhang Dayong out, "The village chief led people over, let you go back to entertain you quickly." ”
Zhang Dayong's words were held back, scratched his head, and said to Su Wenhai: "Uncle, I'll come back to you later." ”
When he went out, seeing that Su Ying still ignored him, Zhang Dayong's heart sank, and he still left with Cai's.
Su Wenhai leaned against the door frame, pondered for a long time, and hesitated: "In addition to being taller and stronger, Dayong looks more stable with a little beard, and he hasn't changed much from before." If you think about it, he is not the kind of person who will let you down, will there be any misunderstanding here? ”
"What misunderstanding can there be?" Su Ying didn't seem to care, "Didn't his mother make it very clear, he was going to marry the daughter of an official family." ”
Su Wenhai always felt unsteady.
"You were unconscious at that time, my father was anxious and afraid, and when I went to ask the Zhang family to tell me about you and Dayong, I heard your aunt say that Dayong was going to marry someone else, and my brain was on fire, and I didn't let her take out the letter and read it carefully. Thinking about it now, it seems a bit careless. ”
Su Ying's heart moved slightly, and when she saw her father's guilty face, she smiled and comforted: "Dad doesn't have to blame himself, even if it's really a misunderstanding?" Zhang Dayong wrote so many letters to his father and mother, but he didn't write a letter to us to report safety, which made his father worry about him for five years in vain, which shows that he doesn't really have us in his heart. ”
"But ......"
"No, Dad, even if he has us in his heart, is it possible for Dad to regret marrying the Shen family?"
"This ......"
At this time, the Shen family, a family of three, all dressed up, with a matchmaker and a sincere dowry, came to the Su family with joy.
