Chapter 50: Sister, Come With Me
Although the sparrows in the hundred households are small, they are complete. The military households of all families have begun to celebrate the New Year.
Those who are capable, post couplets and hang red lanterns.
People who are incapable have to prepare a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and prepare a small red envelope for relatives and children. The Wu family has no relatives in the Baihu Institute, so the red envelope is exempt.
Wu Nian himself could write calligraphy, so he bought red paper and wrote couplets by himself and asked Liu Xiang to paste them on the gate with rice paste.
Bought a red lantern and hung it.
The main thing is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Just in case, Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner were eaten at Wu's house. Liu Xiang couldn't be busy alone, and Wu Nian planned to hire a cook temporarily.
Of course, Wu Nian did not forget the important people.
Chan.
The Chen family has many relatives in the hundred households, but people foolishly think that she is a lone star. Every year, the Chen family eats Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together with the mother and daughter, and no one will come to visit them, and it is very pitiful to be lonely.
Wu Nian wore a half-worn cotton jacket, black official boots made of willow incense on his feet, and a steel knife stuck in his waist, and walked to the small courtyard of the Chen family.
Although it is daytime and there are hundreds of households here, you have to be careful, and it is the least of caution to keep the knife on your body.
The military households encountered along the way bent down and saluted, calling them "Lord Xiaoqi".
Wu Nian couldn't cope with it, so he just smiled and nodded. Soon he came to the Chen family's courtyard, the door closed.
"Knock knock." Wu Nian knocked on the door and shouted, "Ya'er, open the door quickly." I'm Uncle Wu. ”
"Da-da-da-da." In the courtyard, Li Ya's little short legs ran fast, and after opening the door, she threw herself on Wu Nian's body with a smile.
"Uncle Wu." She rubbed it affectionately.
Wu Nian also doted on this girl, bent down and hugged her in his arms, weighing his hand. A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
This girl is much heavier than before.
It's all my fault.
"Ya'er. Are you good today? Wu Nian pinched her fat little face and asked with a smile.
"I'm very good every day." Li Ya said with a grin.
"Hmm. Uncle will give you some reward. Wu Nian carried Li Ya to the door of Chen's room, bent down and put her down, took out a bag of melon seeds from his arms, and stuffed it into her.
Beishan Fort is too small, and the snacks are peanuts, melon seeds, and beans.
"Thank you, Uncle Wu." Li Ya was so happy that she hurriedly thanked her.
"Go ahead. Find a place to eat melon seeds. I'll talk to your mother for a while. Wu Nian pinched her fat face again.
"Okay." Li Ya nodded, turned around and went to find a small bench to sit on in the courtyard, obediently eating melon seeds.
Wu Nian looked at her and felt a little distressed.
This girl is good. But because her mother is a lonely star, no children are willing to play with her. She spends every day in the small yard, so she must be very stuffy.
"I want to fix this." Wu Nian shook his head, and his eyes showed a sharp color, as if he was a general who was about to go on an expedition, full of determination.
"Whew." He took a deep breath, pushed open Chen's door and walked in.
"Xiao Nian, are you here?" On the bed, Chen turned his head weakly and looked at Wu Niandao with a smile.
Although her body is weak, her ears are smart.
"Sister. I've come to see you. Wu Nian looked in the room, brought a small bench and sat in front of the bed, and said softly to Chen.
"Hmm." Chen nodded, his eyebrows full of joy.
He is the only one who can come to see her from these hundred households.
"Sister. This time I came to you for two things. The first thing is that you and Ya'er come to my house for Chinese New Year's Eve. ”
Wu Nian paused when he said this, and his expression was rarely twisted.
Chan was strange, but didn't think much of it. He just said cheerfully, "Okay." Go to your house for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Then she wondered, "What's the second thing?" ”
Wu Nian's face turned red, and he became more and more squirming.
"What do you say? It's really urgent. Chen said angrily. What a straightforward person this young man is on weekdays, why is he so twisted today.
Wu Nian plucked up his courage, stretched out his hand to lift the quilt slightly, grabbed Chen's small hand on his waist, and held it. said: "Sister, I want you to follow me." ”
Chen's pale face turned red, red like lightning. She tried hard to pull her left hand out of Wu Nian's hand, but she didn't succeed.
She was helpless, and stretched out her right hand to twist Wu Nian's ears. scolded: "You dead boy, you ..... You're hungry for your sister's body. ”
In the end, Chen's voice became lower and lower.
Shame on you.
This is a disciple.
Her strength is only tickle. was twisted by his ears, Wu Nian didn't hurt at all. Although she scolded him, she was not angry.
Wu Nian was greatly encouraged, turned his heart and liver, and said, "Sister." You're right, I'm just hungry for you. I want to hold you in my arms and hurt you well. ”
Wu Nian let go of Chen's left hand and reached out to caress Chen's cheek.
Although her face was red, it was a little cold to the touch.
She was weak.
"Sister. I'm going to raise you well, and you're going to be chubby. I'm also going to raise Ya'er, buy her a dowry, and I'm going to be her father. ”
Wu Nian withdrew his hand, took Chen's little hand off his ear, stuffed it back into the quilt, looked at Chen with his head down, and said softly.
His eyes were hot, as hot as if they could melt steel.
Chen's heart was beating fast, fast, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. She closed her eyes in shame, not daring to meet Wu Nian's eyes.
She's a wretched person.
was born in a military family, but married a talented man, I thought that this good life would go on forever. How do you know that her husband died suddenly, and when she returned home, her father and mother also died.
People say that she is a husband, a parent, and killed all her relatives. She was scared, lonely, scared.
She really wanted to die, and she was gone. But thinking about her daughter, she gritted her teeth and held on.
But it really can't hold on.
She was sick and her family property was almost gone.
At this time, it was Wu Nian who brought her warmth.
Even if he is a drunkard and a bad gambler, he cleans himself up when he sees her, and he speaks softly to her.
She knew that Wu Nian liked her.
But in the past, she looked down on Wu Nian a little because he beat Liu Xiang. A man who hits a woman is not a good man.
But now Wu Nian, she likes it, she really likes it.
He didn't dislike her at all for being a lonely star, taking care of her, and treating her daughter as if she were his own.
This is a good man.
Not to mention, they are childhood sweethearts.
But Chan couldn't promise him.
"I can't." Chen Shi struck a spirit, woke up from his sweet dream, and cried and said to Wu Nian: "Xiao Nian. My Kefu, my parents, was sick, and I had a daughter who made a drag oil bottle. ”
"I am willing to follow you, throw yourself in your arms and make you hurt, and give you a baby. It doesn't matter if it's small. But I can't hurt you. ”
