22 Chapter 22

Early the next morning, Jiang Qingyao came over with Lin Qiu.

Lin Qiu is the same age as Ruan Yimian, slightly taller than Ruan Yimian, and he is also a handsome little brother. He is bold and lively, often with a smile on his face, and he speaks a little unscrupulously, and likes to joke with Ruan Yimian the most.

I don't know what Jiang Qingyao said to him, but this time, Lin Qiu was obviously defensive, not as close to Ruan Yimian as he was in his previous life. In the morning, when he was only looking at those few rouges, he glanced at Ruan Yimian a few more times, said a few more words to him, and the rest of the time was silent, Ruan Yimian asked him, and he was not very willing to answer.

Jiang Qingyao glanced at him with a cold face, but he was still indifferent.

Even if he knew that it would take time for the two of them to get acquainted with him, and Jiang Qingyao was so indifferent to Lin Qiu, it was normal for Lin Qiu to be not enthusiastic about his ex-fiancé, Ruan Yimian was still a little lost.

He tried his best to show kindness to Lin Qiu, spoke to him diligently, and later took out a few sugar cakes and fruits that Huo Aowu bought for him and gave them to Lin Qiu to eat.

Xu is mouth is short, Lin Qiu ate his almond soufflé, and finally treated him a little warmer, although he was still a little wary, but he was also willing to chat with Ruan Yimian.

In order to entertain Lin Qiu, the Ruan family also cooked at noon today. The specifications of this meal are quite high, the rice is the rice exchanged for cotton rouge, the boiled white rice, the vegetables are also rare good dishes in the farmer's house, the egg and tofu needless to say, and the pheasant sent by Huo Aowu the day before yesterday was killed, the chicken soup was boiled, and the stewed chicken with wild mountain mushrooms was made.

During the banquet, Ruan Yimian and his mother gave Lin Qiu vegetables one by one, and when they were about to leave after eating, Ruan Yimian sent people out all the way, and specially asked Lin Qiu when he would come again, and when Lin Qiu got into the carriage, he turned back step by step.

Jiang Qingyao was in a complicated mood, when he came over in the past, he had never experienced this treatment.

This time, Ruan Yimian ignored him at all, and only talked to Lin Qiu vigorously, he was both bored and aggrieved, if it weren't for Lin Qiu being a little brother, he would have suspected that Ruan Yimian had taken a fancy to someone.

On the way back to Dongjiao Village, Jiang Qingyao's face sank like water all the way, and Jiang Fu was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word.

Huo Aowu came back a little late today, and not long after he came back, Xu Qingshan came over.

When he entered the door, he was in a hurry: "Master, do you still have the heart to drink tea?!" The man surnamed Jiang came to find Brother Mian'er again today, and I heard that he also had lunch at Ruan's house, and Brother Mian'er specially stewed chicken for others! Xiao Liuzi smelled the smell and said it was very fragrant! Eight achievements are the pheasants you sent the day before yesterday! ”

Huo Aowu's hand holding the teacup tightened.

The teacup was made of ordinary materials, just a pottery cup, where could it withstand his destruction, when Xu Qingshan noticed it, it had already broken into several petals.

Huo Aowu was stunned for a moment, and threw the fragments of the cup into the dustpan on the side as if nothing happened.

Xu Qingshan's face was complicated: "Are you okay with your hands?" ”

"It's fine." Huo Aowu shook off the droplets of water on his hand and wiped it on his body absentmindedly.

Xu Qingshan couldn't bear it anymore, for fear of stimulating his master again, so he weighed his tone and said cautiously: "Cough, maybe it was Aunt Lu's idea, and it didn't necessarily mean that Brother Mian'er wanted to kill a chicken for him to eat......"

"It's okay, give it to them, it's their family's things, you can give it to anyone."

Xu Qingshan really couldn't hold back, and rolled his eyes: "Okay, you can pretend to be generous!" The surname Jiang can't come back twice, two times can't come back three times, the iron man is still afraid of Lang entanglement, and when he grinds Brother Mian'er softly, the two of them have become relatives with Hemei, don't cry with me! ”

Huo Aowu could still pretend to be calm, but when he heard the word "marriage", he couldn't maintain his expression anymore.

He remembered the scene when he heard Ruan Yimian marry someone else in his dream, and his heart ached, and a trace of pain also leaked out on his face, which had always been unwavering, and the hand holding the armrest of the chair was even more forceful.

Xu Qingshan only heard "Bang! With a bang, he looked down and saw that the armrest of the wooden chair had been broken by Huo Aowu.

Xu Qingshan was heartbroken: "Master! Why do you bother? You said that you like Brother Mian'er, what do you dare not recognize, you don't make it clear to others, play 'brother and brother' all day long, how do people know that you like him? ”

"If you like it, you have to fight for it! When you fight on the battlefield, you are not afraid of heaven and earth, why do you shrink back when it comes to Brother Mian'er's affairs? What's so embarrassing about the old man? The young men in the village don't want to rob you, why can't you win with that little white face surnamed Jiang? ”

His master's mouth is harder than the stone outside, and he obviously looks like Brother Mian'er is baby, but he refuses to admit it, Xu Qingshan really hates it!

After he finished speaking, after a long while, Huo Aowu said in a low voice: "What if he likes the one surnamed Jiang?" Jiang Qingyao is a talent, with a rich family background and a bright future, and Brother Mian'er will have a much better life with him. ”

"According to what you say, Ye Tao chose any man in the village before than me, but she still waited for me for four years, what did she want? Brother Mian'er wants to live a life that only he knows, I think he is not uninteresting to you, since he has retired from the same surname Jiang, don't you fight for it, are you willing? ”

Is he willing? Of course he was not reconciled. But now he can still stay around Brother Mian'er, and he is still the "Brother Huo" that Brother Mian'er is close to, when he says what he wants, will Brother Mian'er still be close to him like this?

He was afraid of hearing Brother Mian'er's refusal, and he couldn't bear Brother Mian'er's estrangement.

"You go back first, I'll think for myself." Huo Aowu said in a deep voice.

Xu Qingshan shook his head, slammed the table, and looked disapproving: "What else do you want!" You go and make it clear to Brother Mian'er first, let him not deal with the surname Jiang, and marry you quickly is serious! ”

Huo Aowu looked indifferent with a solemn face, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Xu Qingshan took one last look at him, sighed, and shook his hand away.

After he left, Huo Aowu sat alone in the hall for a long time, and then went out and wandered at the foot of the mountain for a while, but finally he couldn't hold back and went to Ruan's house.

*

Ruan Yimian took Huo Aowu's clothes to his house in the afternoon. Unfortunately, Huo Aowu was not at home, so he ran away in vain.

Huo Aowu went to sell prey, he always went out early and came back in the afternoon, but today I don't know if there was something delayed, the sun was about to set, and he hadn't come back yet.

Ruan Yimian was a little worried, but she was still restless when she went home, and she forgot to eat sugar for a while after drinking the medicine, and she didn't feel bitter anymore.

He did embroidery work in the house for a while, and after embroidering several wrong stitches in a row, he finally put down the work in his hand and went out with Huo Aowu's clothes.

On the way to Huo Aowu's house, he only saw a familiar figure halfway through. Although he couldn't see his face clearly against the light, there was no second person in Shanliu Village who was born so tall.

"Brother Huo!" Ruan Yimian's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on her face.

Looking at the smiling brother in front of him, Huo Aowu couldn't help but take a few steps forward, getting a little closer to him.

"Brother Mian." Huo Aowu's voice was a little hoarse.

After getting closer, he noticed the familiar clothes in Ruan Yimian's hand, Huo Aowu's heart instantly churned, Brother Mian'er helped him mend the clothes, and took the initiative to send them to him!

Ruan Yimian saw him Brother Huo rushing over in a hurry, approaching and then stunned there, just looking at him fixedly, a pair of deep eyes flashing with a scorching light, as if to melt him.

Ruan Yimian only glanced at him, then lowered his head and looked away.

"Brother Huo, I'll help you mend your clothes." Ruan Yimian said with a red face.

Huo Aowu looked at Ruan Yimian without blinking, as if he was halfway through a sugar jar, and his tenderness and sweetness were about to overflow.

At that moment, he wanted to hug Ruan Yimian into his arms, but in the end he only took the clothes in his hand.
