Chapter 17: Xiao Yuanming (Ask for Collections, Comments, Votes)
Hitting rice is more laborious than cutting rice, and there are more than three taels of silver in his hand, so Lin Baobao wants to improve the food for the family.
If you want a horse to run, you have to give it grass.
It's a waste of time to go to the town to buy meat, but there are people in the village who make tofu and sell it, and some people go to the nearby river to catch fish and sell it.
After saying hello to Feng, Lin Baobao went back to the house to get the money and went out with a basket.
It is Aunt Zou who makes tofu and sells it is Aunt Zou that Lin Baobao told Zou Xiuyu.
Aunt Zou lives in the west of the village, her man and children are gone, she is the only one left in the family, she usually makes a living by selling tofu, and the people in the village see that it is not easy for her, and they are willing to take care of some business.
As for the fish sellers, they not only sell them in the village, but also pick them to sell in the town, and most of them are families who have little land and many people who can only find other ways to support their families.
The Lin family also belongs to the small land and many people, and after being busy for a while, Lin Baobao plans to take Lin Wulang and them to open up the wasteland, but the income from the land reclamation is slow, and he has to think of individual ways to make money, at least to maintain his life.
Lin Baobao thought all the way, and he didn't notice it when he passed by his own field.
So Da Mao's words changed from "Little uncle, my sister-in-law is coming to you." ”
Later, it became: "Uncle, sister-in-law is not here to look for you." ”
Gu Shi: ......
"It's broken." Da Mao suddenly jumped up.
Gu Shi stopped what he was doing and looked at him.
"Do you see if my sister-in-law went to the west of the village?" Thinking that Gu Shi didn't know, he added: "The dog surnamed Xiao lives in the west of the village, and my sister-in-law must be looking for him." ”
"Oh, my sister-in-law hasn't mentioned that dog thing since she woke up this time, we thought she forgot about him when she had you, but we didn't forget it at all."
Da Mao looked at Gu Shi with an expression of "you can't do it", and saw that Gu Shi wanted to knock the hoe in his hand on his head.
"No way!" Da Mao slammed his hoe to the ground.
Gu Shi: ......
"We'll have to go up and see." Da Mao dropped the hoe and left, and when he looked back and saw that Gu Shi didn't move, he ran back to pull him out of iron: "The daughter-in-law is almost gone, why are you still stupid with a pestle here." ”
Gu Shi: Bear it, I can't help it!
Da Mao has been mixing with Lin Wulang, who has listened to a lot of books, for a long time, and it is inevitable that he has learned some strange things, such as when he is tracking, the other party will suddenly turn around and see it, and he has to keep looking for a cover to hide his figure.
But there wasn't even a tree in those places......
Therefore, when Gu Shi saw the person who was walking well suddenly plunged into the rice field, the expression on his face was almost untensed.
Da Mao doesn't count drilling the rice field by himself, but he has to pull him along!
In broad daylight, two men ......
Once, twice, three times, nothing more than three, Gu Shi couldn't bear it, and was about to stand up, but as soon as he made a move, he was pressed back by a hand.
"It's coming, it's coming, look." Da Mao was so excited that he tried his best to pat Gu with his hand: "Sure enough, I guessed it, this pair ......" No, the woman is her sister-in-law, and she can't be scolded.
Da Mao held back for a long time, and held back a sentence "Dog men are good women." ”
Gu Shi subconsciously poked his head out of his way, and saw that not far away, the young man and girl were standing opposite each other at a distance of five steps.
The young man was dressed as a student, his face was delicate, the girl had her back to them, and a fair and delicate little face automatically appeared in Gu Shi's mind.
The two of them went to that station, and just looking at their figures, they felt that they had landed on the right track.
Gu Shi had never seen Xiao Yuanming, but it was not difficult to guess the identity of the young man by looking at Da Mao's excitement.
Lin Baobao didn't expect to meet Xiao Yuanming, and wanted to go directly, but they stood still in the middle of the road, looking like they had something to say, so they had no choice but to stop.
The dirt road in the countryside is so big.
Xiao Yuanming looked at the girl in front of him, obviously he was still the same person, but the apricot eyes that were always smiling were calm at this time, and there was no joy on his face when he saw himself.
It was like she was looking at a stranger again.
Xiao Yuanming was suddenly at a loss and didn't know what to say.
Maybe there was nothing to say, but he couldn't stop her.
"If it's okay, let me go." Lin Baobao saw that he didn't speak, her eyebrows frowned slightly, she had to buy fish after buying tofu, and then go home to make breakfast, and she had to ...... after breakfast
Xiao Yuanming was stunned, and hurriedly took out something from his arms and handed it over.
It was a purse with crooked stitches, perhaps because it was worn from time to time, and the fabric was already a little white.
Lin Baobao's mind flashed the appearance of the original body clumsily sewing a purse, and his heart was inexplicable.
Perhaps, "she" is not hot.
"I ...... I heard that my little sister said that you have been short of money recently, and there are two taels of silver I saved by copying books, and you can take it to deal with emergencies. Thinking of something, he added: "My mother doesn't know." ”
Da Mao was angry when he saw this scene: "This dog thing, you dare to send a purse to my sister-in-law, isn't this that, what's that?" ”
Gu Shi's eyes became cold: "Give and receive privately." ”
"Yes, that's the word, no, you can't let my sister-in-law accept it." Da Mao looked left and right, dug up a ball of mud and pasted it directly on his face.
Gu Shi: "You, this is ......"
"I'm going to snatch the purse. You don't know, my sister-in-law won't let us appear in front of Xiao Yuanming, otherwise she will trouble us. ”
Gu Shi: ...... Don't you know who you are when you're confused?
Seeing that Da Mao still wanted to give him paste, Gu Shi turned his head: "I don't need it." ”
"You're so brave?" Da Mao admired it a little, and no one in the family was not afraid of his sister-in-law.
"She didn't."
And most of the purses are given by women to men, how can a man give a purse to a woman?
Da Mao was stunned for a moment, and when he looked again, he saw that the two people who were originally five steps away had opened a large distance.
Lin Baobao thought of the silver ingots Gu Shi gave him: "No need, you can take the money back, and lose your purse." ”
Regardless of whether Xiao Yuanming intentionally or unintentionally touched the original body, it can be seen from the news that the Xiao family was discussing his relatives.
In this era when filial piety is greater than heaven, he can't disobey the Wu family, and the two are destined to never come together.
So there's no need to regret the two of them's misses.
Xiao Yuanming's hand holding the purse tightened, and he lowered his head: "I'm sorry." ”
The person you're really sorry for is dead.
"When you're done, let's go."
Xiao Yuanming pursed his lips and took a step to the left.
Lin Baobao walked past him without squinting.
"I'll go back to the academy today and come back after the autumn."
"I wish you the title of the gold list, by the way, I am already married." Lin Baobao said goodbye and didn't stop again.
"Why do I look a little pitiful at the dogs?" Da Mao scratched his head, thinking of the identity of the person in front of him, he hurriedly stated his position: "But don't worry, I still prefer you to be my little uncle." ”
Gu Shi watched the mud on his hands rub all the mud on his head, and his eyebrows jumped.
"Lin Damao? What are you hiding here? ”
A gentle voice rang out.
Da Mao and Gu Shi looked up at the same time, and saw Xiao Yuanming looking at them with a puzzled expression.
Gu Shi: !!
