107 Douqiao

Su Qingluan's words were simply a death question, and in an instant, except for Su Qingluan himself, the remaining girls looked very embarrassed.

However, the eldest girl who had been following Tian Xing'er but had not spoken all the time sighed: "What's the use of all these nonsense thoughts? In the end, it was just a word from my father and mother, and I got married. ”

Su Qingluan raised her eyebrows, looked over, and saw that the girl's face had a faint sadness on her face, which was similar to the way she looked at her with a vivid expression and indignant before.

"Sister Qi'er's father told her a family business a few days ago, and she will be married in the spring after the year!" Sweet Apricot whispered.

Liu Er was indignant: "How can Sister Qi'er go to match that bad old man who is about to be forty!" I heard that the old man's sons are eleven or twelve years old! ”

"Liu'er, don't talk about it......" Que'er sighed in a low voice, "My father wants me to marry the Chen family, just to change some daughters-in-law for my two younger brothers......"

Su Qingluan frowned, and said in his heart that he really had such a ruthless father, and he was not even as good as the master who adopted him.

But she didn't rashly express any opinions, after all, she and Qi'er barely met for the second time today, and they were not very familiar, and they didn't know if the other party had any difficulties, so they couldn't give any opinions from God's perspective.

However, she wondered why Finch accepted this unfair marriage so easily.

The next moment, Que'er's words answered this doubt: "Ah Niang secretly stuffed me with silver and asked me to go to my uncle, but I am afraid that after I escape, Ah Niang will be beaten to death by my father......"

Su Qingluan endured it, but still couldn't help but ask, "Does Li Zheng care?" ”

Several girls didn't make a sound, but they all looked at Tian Xing'er, which made Su Qingluan's heart hang.

Sure enough, Tian Xing'er sighed: "My father, if he can add glory to his face, he would be willing to do it, but he turns a blind eye to this kind of housework." ”

Oh, now it's Su Qingluan's turn to be embarrassed, and the emotional sweet apricot is Li Zheng's daughter.

Wait a minute...... Su Qingluan suddenly thought of a question: "I remember that Li Zheng's surname is Tian." ”

Tian Xing'er nodded: "Yes, so my name is Tian Xing'er." Seeing Su Qingluan's still surprised expression, she smiled, "Don't mind too much - after all, my daughter is not very good to be treated by her father, because I am a girl, but I am not a well-behaved and beautiful girl." ”

Only well-behaved and beautiful girls, when they say kiss, can they better "sell at a price" and bring greater and more benefits.

Su Qingluan listened to Tian Xing'er talk so calmly about the reason why she was unpleasant, and she only felt a little difficult to breathe.

At this moment, she realized very clearly that not every family's father and mother are like Su Guangfu and Yang, who love every child as much as possible, and some parents' preferences are put on the surface, even colder than strangers.

No one spoke for a while, but the finch was the first to cheer up: "Aren't you going to teach the big girl to fight together?" Later, I will make a wish to the Weaver Girl! ”

"Yes, yes!" Liu Er nodded hurriedly, "Weaver Girl will definitely be able to bless Sister Qi'er, and live a happy life after getting married, Xiaoman, don't you say?" ”

It turned out that the fifth girl was called Xiaoman, and Su Qingluan looked at the round-faced girl.

I saw Xiao Man nodding again and again: "Yes, Sister Qi'er, the Weaver Girl will definitely bless you!" ”

Su Qingluan also comforted the finch with the girls, but she was not optimistic about the future of the finch - it can even be said that she was pessimistic.

In this era, whether women are doing well after getting married, I am afraid that in addition to getting along with their husbands, it is their mother's support.

Que'er's original family is a pit for selling daughters, and the husband's family can let a girl who is more than 20 years younger make a continuation for herself, not to mention that her sons are in their teens, so they can talk about family affairs, and they won't be too serious.

At this moment, Su Qingluan suddenly wanted to do something for the finch, but she also knew that now she couldn't give anything except a few cheap and fluttering words of comfort.

Gathering her thoughts, Su Qingluan thought that at least she could distract Qi'er from this marriage, so she asked, "Sister Qi'er, what is Douqiao?" Since it's a 'fight', it's supposed to be a competition, right? ”

When Que'er heard Su Qingluan's question, she turned her head and explained with a smile: "That's true, if you do the best, it's 'skillful', and if you don't meet certain requirements, it's 'bad luck'." ”

Su Qingluan, led by several girls, came to the stone table in the courtyard.

She was curious to find that on the table, in addition to the paper-cutting that seemed to be clear at a glance, the colored thread and silver needle, which at a glance knew that it was a competition between paper-cutting handicraft and needlework, and a basin of water.

Su Qingluan looked closer at the basin of clear water, leaned over and lowered his head to smell it, it didn't seem to have any taste, just a basin of ordinary water.

"I can understand that those are competition paper-cutting and needlework," Su Qingluan pointed to a bunch of gadgets next to him, and then pointed to the basin of water in front of him: "What is this?" Is it to throw copper coins in? ”

Tian Xing'er raised her eyebrows: "Why did you throw the copper money in?" ”

Kindness? Wrong?

Su Qingluan said vaguely: "I heard before that throwing copper coins into the clear water can pray for blessings. ”

Liu Er smiled: "It should be a spiritual place between mountains and rivers or Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, right?" ”

Su Qingluan knew that he had guessed wrong, so he could only ask, "So what is this basin of water for?" ”

"It is also a kind of fighting skill, called 'throwing needle'." Finch explained.

“…… Sounds like you're going to throw a needle into the water. Su Qingluan muttered.

"That's right," Tian Xing'er was a little proud, "It's just a few requirements - this needle needs to float on the water, not sink, of course, this level alone is only the first step." ”

Xiaoman walked over and teased and joked: "Sister Xing'er is a good hand at throwing needles, not only can keep the needles from falling, but also can put the projection in various shapes!" ”

Su Qingluan stared at the surface of the water and pondered: "So, as long as the needle does not fall into the water, and there are projections of various shapes, it is considered 'coincidence'?" ”

Xiao Man nodded, but added: "Don't look like it's very simple!" In fact, we keep the silver needle from falling into the water, and every year we have people who fail - but Sister Xing'er is always the first to be the first to be clever, and she is really good at throwing needles! ”

Sweet Xing'er heard Xiaoman praise her, and a smile on her face showed a little smug, but she was a little embarrassed to admit it: "Where are you as exaggerated as you say, it's just luck...... It's the first time you throw a needle, as long as you keep the silver needle from falling down, this step is very difficult...... Huh? ”
