Chapter 42 Proposal
It was Zhang Xiaolong who came in,
The two stood at the door and listened to the conversation between her grandmother and her mother, Liu Qian's face was red with shame, and Zhang Xiaolong listened while watching Liu Qian's expression, when he saw his grandmother's disappointed expression, he couldn't help but take Liu Qian's hand, rushed into the yard, and said with a heartfelt feeling: "Qianqian will not go home." ”
Liu Qian's face was flushed and she wanted to withdraw her hand, but she didn't know Weishenme, so she didn't do it, but followed Zhang Xiaolong very obediently and ran into the courtyard. While running, I was still thinking in my heart: "Thank you to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, this layer of window paper has finally been pierced, some time ago I was still worried about Guo Sufei if she asked herself again, how should she deal with it, and now she is in ashes in Zhang Xiaolong's impulse, this Zhang Xiaolong is really his own lucky star, or fate." ”
Everyone looked at the two people who rushed into the courtyard inexplicably, and when they stood still in front of their grandmother, they saw Zhang Xiaolong holding Liu Qian's hand, and his face immediately showed a knowing look, so that's the case. Zhang Xiaolong saw everyone's ambiguous eyes, and then he noticed that Liu Qian's silky hand in his hand didn't know for a moment whether to let go or continue to hold it.
Guo Sufei saw her son's embarrassment, and hurriedly asked: "Xiaolong, did you mean that Qianqian didn't go home just now?"
Zhang Xiaolong pulled his face, not knowing how to answer, at this time, the little hand he held in his hand scratched his fingers lightly with his fingers, he understood, and said happily: "Yes, mother, it was Qianqian who told me." ”
Everyone was overjoyed, and my grandmother couldn't keep her mouth shut.
Guo Sufei walked up to Liu Qian, still in disbelief and asked: "Qianqian, this is a lifelong event, you have to think clearly, don't regret it later." ”
Others didn't think much about it, knowing that Guo Sufei was to confirm Liu Qian's thoughts, Liu Qian was happy in her heart, this family is really simple, this should be told by her family, they said it first. Liu Qian also knew that she couldn't hesitate like last time at this time, she finally nodded slightly, and then broke free from Zhang Xiaolong's hand and ran out.
When Guo Sufei saw it, she quickly pushed her son and said, "Why don't you chase it yet?"
Zhang Xiaolong woke up like a dream and said, "Okay." ”
But after walking a few steps, he came back and said, "Daddy, give me some silver, and we went out to buy meat, and we didn't take any money." ”
Zhang Cai hurriedly took out a little broken silver from his arms and gave it to him, Xiaolong took it, ran out quickly, and chased after Liu Qian outside the courtyard, who was obviously waiting for him.
Grandma heard that Zhang Xiaolong ran away, and said with a smile: "This kid is really related to Qianqian, he can turn it into an opportunity without taking money, I heard what you mean just now, I thought he had no fun with Qianqian." ”
Guo Sufei also said with emotion: "Yes, last time I asked Qianqian what she meant, it seems that she is unwilling, I don't know how to ask again, this is good, it's all solved." ”
Zhang Cai also said happily: "Xiaohua, go, give me a little wine at the entrance of the village, let me be happy and happy." ”
Zhang Xiaohua said: "haode." ”
He got up and ran out. When he ran away, Guo Sufei asked, "Did you give Xiaohua silver?"
Zhang Cai said depressedly: "No, wait for him to come back." ”
In the next few days, the Zhang family looked happy, Liu Qian would blush slightly when she saw Zhang Xiaolong, and deliberately avoided him, Zhang Xiaolong would also be inexplicably at a loss and made a lot of jokes. The family members watched the embarrassment of the two with great interest, sharing the sweetness of the two Aiqing.
Grandma's expression is also very good, but she is getting thinner and thinner, and she can feel thinner after a few days, Guo Sufei is happy for her son and sad for her mother.
Others can't clear her grandmother's situation, but Zhang Xiaohua can feel that her grandmother is not good, on this day, he really couldn't help it, and secretly pulled Guo Sufei and said, "Mother, tell you something." ”
Guo Sufei was very surprised by her youngest son's behavior and said, "What are you in trouble with? ”
Zhang Xiaohua said angrily: "Mother, when did I get into trouble for you?"
Guo Sufei touched his head and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"
Zhang Xiaohua said sadly: "Mother, I can feel that something is floating away on my grandmother's body, and if I float away a little, my grandmother will lose a little weight, and I also feel that there are not many of these things on my grandmother." ”
Guo Sufei said angrily: "You kid, what are you talking nonsense?" ”
Zhang Xiaohua argued: "That's right, mother, I really feel that I have told Sister Qianqian before, and she believes me." “
"Huh~ What did you Sister Qianqian say?" Guo Sufeiqi said.
Sister Qianqian said that it was because my grandmother loved me the most, and I also cared about my grandmother the most, so I could feel her physical condition, but she said that it was not easy to explain, anyway, some close relatives can know. Zhang Xiaohua replied seriously.
Guo Sufei listened, threw down Zhang Xiaohua, and hurried to find Zhang Cai, Zhang Xiaohua saw that her mother cared about what she said, and she didn't want to imagine it, so she was very happy and went to accompany her grandmother.
Guo Sufei met Zhang Cai and told Zhang Cai what Zhang Xiaohua said, Zhang Cai thought about it and said: "I have heard of such a thing before, what Xiaohua said may be true." Looks like we're going to have to do some preparation first. ”
Guo Sufei listened, so she had to nod sadly.
However, she immediately asked Zhang Cai again: "What about the matter between Qianqian and Xiaolong? First, my mother wants to watch Xiaolong get married, and second, if my mother really goes, then Xiaolong and Qianqian's affairs will have to go backwards, and I don't know what will happen." ”
Zhang Cai said: "Otherwise, let's go to Liu Qian's house in a few days to propose marriage, if we can do the best thing before my mother leaves, it really can't be done, and we will settle this matter first." ”
Guo Sufei also nodded in agreement and said, "Then I'll ask Qianqian what she means first." ”
That night, Guo Sufei told Liu Qian about the proposal, thinking that Liu Qian would shirk it like last time, but although Liu Qian under the lamp was very shy, she still nodded and agreed without hesitation, which made Guo Sufei very pleased. is really a good child who can afford to let go, knowing that grandma wants to see her and Xiaolong's good deeds, she no longer has any scruples and makes a wise choice. This also made Guo Sufei firmly believe that the daughter-in-law favored by her whole family is really the most haode daughter-in-law in the world.
The next day, Zhang Cai prepared a gift and took Zhang Xiaohua to Liu Qian's house in Baligou to discuss the matter of marriage. Zhang Xiaohua is also very happy, he misses the pork belly of Butcher Liu's family very much.
Baligou is some distance from Guozhuang, Zhang Cai and Zhang Xiaohua hurried slowly, and when they walked to the entrance of the village, it was also three poles in the day, Zhang Cai's body after illness was really a little unbearable, sitting on the big stone at the entrance of the village to rest, Zhang Xiaohua was nothing, and her breathing did not change, which not only made Zhang Cai envious of the young man's body. In fact, Zhang Xiaohua was also breathing when she came last time, and she was a lot stronger than Zhang Cai, but she definitely didn't feel tired at all when she came this time.
After Zhang Cai rested, the two of them got up again, and under the leadership of Zhang Xiaohua, the two came to Mr. Liu's home.
Mr. Liu's home is still the same, and the door is open, but Zhang Xiaohua shouted for a long time, and no one inside answered, Zhang Xiaohua thought that there was no one at home, so she walked in with Zhang Cai with a gift. Walking into the yard, Zhang Cai saw the scattered flowers and plants in the yard, although the spring did not arrive, and the flowers did not bloom, but he could also see the delicacy of the yard and the elegance of the owner, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and only such an environment can raise such an excellent child as Liu Qian, of course, there are expectations in my heart, if my own courtyard can also be like this, I will be old and retire in such an environment, and this life will be satisfied. At the same time as Zhang Cai looked at the small courtyard, Zhang Xiaohua's eyes went to the wing room next to the courtyard, the logic in Zhang Xiaohua's heart was very simple, since the door of the courtyard was not locked, it must be at home, and no one answered after shouting for a long time, it must be busy with something, what can a scholar be busy with? It is nothing more than writing and painting, I heard Liu Qian say that his family has a study, which is on the edge of the hall, maybe Mr. Liu is in the study.
Sure enough, in the wing room on the right hand, I saw a familiar back, it was Mr. Liu. He was facing away from the door, writing something on his desk. Zhang Xiaohua grabbed her father, who was walking towards the hall, and pointed to Mr. Liu's back, and Zhang Cai stopped. Turned around and followed Zhang Xiaohua to the door of the study, Zhang Xiaohua raised her legs and was about to go in, but was pulled by her father, Zhang Cai made a silent action, and then zhanzhu, Zhang Xiaohua knew what her father meant, and she was afraid of disturbing Mr. Liu, so she stood quietly next to her father. The father and son stood at the door of the study and waited for a while, Mr. Liu was still doing his own thing, and did not mean to stop, Zhang Xiaohua felt a little bored, and was about to say something to her father, when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door of the courtyard, and the two looked back, it turned out to be Liu Qian's brother Liu Kai came back.
Liu Kai entered the house, saw two people standing in the courtyard, carefully identified and found that it was Zhang Cai's father and son, with a smile on his face, he hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, looked at the busy father in the study, and said to Zhang Cai and the two embarrassedly: "My father is like this, as soon as he is busy with his own affairs, he will leave all the affairs around him behind, and when he is done, he will naturally come out, please ask the uncle to sit in the hall." Then he accepted the gift, politely let Zhang Cai and the two to the hall, and made tea and water for the two.
Zhang Cai and Zhang Xiaohua walked for almost a morning, and they were really thirsty, so they took the tea and drank it, thinking while drinking: "The taste of this tea is really not as good as our family." ”
Liu Kai watched the two of them finish drinking tea and rested for a while, then asked, "Why did Uncle suddenly come to our house today? Didn't Qianqian come back with her?" ”
Zhang Cai hurriedly said: "Qianqian didn't come back with us today, she is very good at our house." I came today because I wanted to discuss something with Mr. Liu. ”
