This time, no woman followed, so she didn't even have a girl's clothes.

However, someone dug out a set of old clothes worn by Aunt Sang in the house where he lived, and finally let Ma Hui change out of wet clothes.

Ma Hui went to the backyard, changed her clothes, and then took apart her soaked hair and wiped it, while looking at the room.

Even if there is only a house with some furniture, it is much better than Ma Hui's house.

It would be nice to be able to live here forever, but it seems that there are no people living in this house, and there is not a single woman in sight, so I don't know what these people do?

And the man

The knock on the door interrupted Ma Hui's thoughts, she blushed slightly, pressed the back of her hand to her cheek, and then got up and opened the door.

She has seen the young lady of the landlord's house in the village, walking and talking slowly, as if she has not eaten enough to be weak, she doesn't understand, the eldest sister said: "The young ladies and girls of the big families are like this, and people don't need to do hard work like us, where do you need to walk and do things in a hurry?" ”

I'm gone, all the work should be done by the eldest sister, I don't know if she can stand it? I don't know if the eldest sister wants to be herself?

Even so, his hand opened the door without delay.

Outside the door was Liu Xi, and suddenly remembered that he stood up and said that he would be his person in the future, and Ma Hui's cheeks turned red again.

Liu Xi was holding a tray in his hand, with a plate of pastries and a pot of tea on it, and when he saw Ma Hui suddenly bowing his head shyly, he was also a little overwhelmed, and he stammered a little when he spoke: "I thought you should be hungry, let's pad this thing for you first, and then we will make a fire to cook." ”

"Thank you!"

Ma Hui quickly raised his eyes to look at Liu Xi, reached out to take the tray, and his fingertips touched Liu Xi's fingers, Liu Xi retracted his hand suddenly, and felt that the action was a little abrupt, and he wanted to explain two sentences, but he really couldn't find the right words.

At this moment, Liu Xi suddenly regretted that Xiao Chenyu asked him to read and write with him, he didn't want to, if he had more literary talent, he would be able to write a chapter at this time, or say something decent.

"You, is there anything else?" Ma Hui hesitated and asked the man who was standing at the door and didn't leave or speak.

"Huh? Oh, it's okay, I'll go to the kitchen now. Liu Xi turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Ma Hui.

"You wait for me, I'll go to the kitchen with you, I see that you are all men, I will do the kitchen work."

"Okay, hey, hey!" Liu Xi stood at the door and waited, Ma Hui put the tray in his hand and followed Liu Xi towards the kitchen in the front yard.

On the way, Ma Hui asked Liu Xi: "Do I see that there are no people living in this courtyard?" ”

The two walked side by side, very close, Liu Xi glanced sideways at Ma Hui, and felt that he smelled a fragrance for no reason, not a flower fragrance or a fragrance to wear, but an indescribable incense that belonged to the girl alone.

Liu Xi, who was a little distracted, hurriedly looked at the front and said, "This is my sister-in-law's home before she got married, and now everyone has moved to the county seat." This place is empty, and I heard that my sister-in-law intends to sell this house, but I don't know why I didn't mention it later. ”

Because of nervousness, Liu Xi's words were subconsciously more: "You don't have to worry, the house in the county is bigger, and the sister-in-law is very good, you will definitely be able to get along with her." ”

Ma Hui is a girl who grew up in the countryside, and the countrymen never shy away from it so much, in the fields and under the old trees in the village, those men and women who have become relatives always have no scruples about joking; She has often heard about men and women, and she is not too young, so she understands everything she should understand.

Therefore, Liu Xi's expression and thoughts did not escape her eyes, and after Liu Xi finished speaking, Ma Hui asked, "Why is your second brother's surname Xiao, and your surname is Liu?" ”

"Oh, I have no blood relationship with him, but since I was a child, I have been calling him second brother, and I am used to it."

"I see, you don't look alike, huh." She looked at Liu Xi again and said with a smile: "It's not like anything else." ”

This sentence turned in Liu Xi's mind, and he couldn't figure out what it meant, and just about to ask what "other" meant, the kitchen arrived.

There were two boys in the kitchen who were making dinner, and although it was hilarious, it was clear that neither of them was good at the kitchen.

So, Ma Hui successfully took over the work of the kitchen, Liu Xi took the initiative to stay and help with the fire, and kicked out the two boys who were squeezing their eyebrows, and the two boys didn't leave, just probed their brains outside the door and covered their mouths and snickered.

One person attached himself to the other's ear and said, "Brother Liu Xi seems to be getting married." ”

"I don't think I'm going to be far from ten, but it's time for him to get married."

The muttering of the two was roughly listened to by the two people in the room.

Ma Hui's face turned red and turned around to cut vegetables, Liu Xi was happy in his heart, but he yelled at the two people at the door: "You two guys, why don't you get out of here, do you want me to serve you with a stick?" ”

"Brother Liu Xi, are you ashamed or are you just looking at us as an eyesore? Ah, hahahaha! ”

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Chenyu's voice came from the courtyard, and the two boys immediately stood up straight and didn't dare to be presumptuous.

Xiao Chenyu said again: "Can't you see life in your eyes?" If you have nothing to do, go and sweep the yard. ”

"Yes, second master, let's go now." The two saluted and walked away.

Ma Hui's hand chopping vegetables paused, and looked out of the kitchen window.

Under the eaves outside the hall, I saw Xiao Chenyu, who was standing tall and tall, standing there, twisting his waist, next to him was a low table, with tea cups and books on it, probably sitting for a long time and moving his body.

The rain curtain falling from the eaves smashed into the yard, and there was already stagnant water on the ground, Xiao Chenyu looked up slightly at the rain that kept falling from the sky, and frowned tightly.

The word "he" came out, and Ma Hui paused.

Liu Xi asked, "Who?" ”

"Oh, I mean the second master, what kind of person is the second master?"

Fortunately, Ma Hui had her back to Liu Xi, and he didn't see her eyes.

"My second brother!" Liu Xi put a piece of firewood into the stove and said with a smile: "The second brother is a good person, a great talent, and a great filial son. All in all, he's a very, very nice guy. ”

Liu Xi obviously doesn't praise people, but what he says is what he thinks in his heart, in his opinion, there is no better person in the world than the second brother.

"It's good that you have such a second brother!" Ma Hui withdrew her gaze from the outside, brought the cut vegetables over, and smiled at Liu Xi.

And Liu Xi's slightly dark face smiled exceptionally brightly against the backdrop of the stove fire.

Ma Hui's movements were neat, and she quickly made a table of meals.

Then Ma Hui found that Xiao Chenyu did not eat alone, but ate with everyone.

However, Ma Hui is a woman, and she is embarrassed to eat with a group of men, so she eats alone in the kitchen, but she hears that the group of men admiring her craftsmanship and making jokes about Liu Xi, why Liu Xi is about to get rid of the days of being single.
