Chapter 17: Calculate

Views:

The house He Ling lived in has been unoccupied for half a month, and there was some dust accumulated. He had to clean it a little before he could sleep. After thinking about it, he left the house. He went to the kitchen to draw a basin of water. There was no one in the house.

He returned to the house with the water basin, found out the clothes he had left behind and tore off a piece of it, washed it in the water, and wanted to wipe the bedside of the window sill.

Before he could do anything, he heard the door of the house being pushed open. He Ling was startled, lest the aunt and the others would come to trouble him, and when he turned around, he saw his sister-in-law Liu in the lobby came in with a bed and quilt.

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't have much interaction with his two sisters-in-law. Although their attitudes were lukewarm and not very polite to him, they were much better than Qian's and He Zhen, "the lobby. Sister-in-law, it's so late, what's the matter?"

"I don't think your house has been lived in for half a month. The bedding must be uncomfortable, so I will bring you a clean bed!" Liu shi lifted the bedding in his hand to show him.

"This..." He Ling didn't know whether to take it or not, the other party had never been so kind to him before.

As if seeing what he was thinking, Liu continued: "Don't think too much, after all, after living together for so many years, there is still some affection. The elders usually do things, and I, as a daughter-in-law, can't say anything. , don't take it too seriously!"

"Then, thank you, Mrs. in the lobby!" The words were all over the place, and Qi Yue's refusal seemed hypocritical.

Seeing that he took it, Liu's face only had a smile. Seeing that he was going to clean the house, he stayed to help. The two removed the dirty quilts and bedding and wiped the dusty areas clean before laying the clean quilts brought by Liu onto the bed.

The two of them got things done quickly, and they didn't waste any effort. Mrs. Liu pinned the strands of hair that fell on her cheeks behind her ears and said with a smile, "Do some work, I'm thirsty, I'll go to the kitchen. Boil some water!"

"Let me go!" He Ling stood up.

"It's alright, you were all alone at home before, and you'll be married tomorrow, so let me come!" Liu Shi waved at him and left the house.

He Ling sat on the bed just made, a little dazed, starting tomorrow, he will completely leave this small house where he has lived for more than ten years and become someone else's husband. And that person... Thinking of Qi Yue's gentle face, he lowered his head and smiled, that person treated him very well, a rare man in the world!

When Liu Shi came back, she was holding two bowls of water in her hand, and she handed one of the bowls to him, "Be careful, it's hot, I put white sugar in it!"

He Ling took it in his hand and thanked her in a low voice.

Liu Shi sat down beside him, blew with the bowl in his hand, took a sip, and said with admiration, "Sugar water is delicious!"

He Ling smiled and didn't say a word. When he lived in He's house, where would it be his turn to drink sugar water. But during this time in Lin's house, every time Xiaohu clamored to drink sugar water, Wu Yulan would also make him a bowl. The taste was really sweet and warm, and it was delicious!

Seeing him holding a bowl in a daze, Liu Shi said, "What are you thinking? You don't like sweet?"

He Ling regained his senses and shook his head, "No, I remembered something."

"Oh." Mrs. Liu looked at his clothes up and down, and said with some envy, "The material of your clothes is really good. Did that Qi Yue buy it for you?"

He Ling's face turned a little red when she mentioned Qi Yue. He nodded casually, then lowered his head and drank water to hide his hot cheeks.

Seeing him drinking water, Liu's eyes flashed, and he said, "He is so kind to you!"

He Ling drank the sweet sugar water, and his heart was also sweet. That person was really kind to him, so good that he always felt that he was dreaming.

"It's not too early, I won't disturb you to sleep, you have to get up early to dress up tomorrow!" Liu shi stood up with a bowl in hand, and walked away hurriedly without waiting for him to say anything.

He Ling didn't pay attention to her abnormality. He put the unfinished water on the window sill and was about to take off his jacket to rest. As soon as his hand touched the button, he felt dizzy for a while, and he lost the strength on his body, and threw himself down. On the bed, I couldn't even lift my fingers.

The door of the house was pushed open again, and He Zhen and Qian came in, with He Gui behind them.

As soon as He Zhen entered the door, she glanced at the bowl on the windowsill and looked at him proudly, "He Ling, is sugar water delicious?"

He Ling's eyes widened, but he didn't even have the strength to speak. They asked Liu Shi to give him medicine, why

He Zhen took a few steps closer and looked at him condescendingly, "He Ling, tomorrow I will replace you and become Qi Yue's husband. As for you, there will be a better destination!"

The ceremony for the marriage of the brother and the girl is basically the same, and both have to cover their heads. Although he and He Ling are different in body shape, wearing a large wedding dress and covering the head will not be too obvious. When he was welcomed into the gate of Qi Yue's house, Qi Yue could not regret it. After all, the hijab would not be removed until the bridal chamber, when they had already worshipped and married. As for the future, day and night, Qi Yue will always fall in love with him!

He Ling couldn't believe that he had such an idea. Qian's insistence on letting him marry from here was so that He Zhen could replace him!

"Agui, take him to the place I told you!" Qian Shi reached out and patted He Gui's arm.

"Hey!" He Gui responded, and stepped forward to carry He Ling on his shoulders.

He Ling was full of fear, he didn't know where He Gui was going to take him, he wanted to struggle, but he couldn't use any strength!

He Gui carried him and walked in the village, picking some paths. In the quiet night, there was no sound at all. He was terrified, but he couldn't even ask for help, so he could only limp on He Gui's shoulder. superior.

He felt them walking for a long time and then stopped in one place when he heard a knock on the door.

"Oh, brother He Gui, you are here, I've been waiting for a long time!"

After the door opened, it was the voice of a man speaking, which He Ling recognized!

The people in the village call him Luo Leizi. He is particularly annoying. The family has only two acres of land, and he is not good enough to grow. He goes to other people's houses all day long to eat and drink. To tease the girl and brother in the village, He Ling used to walk around when he saw him.

Now that Qian Shi asked He Gui to bring him to Luo Leizi's house, what did he want to do? !

"Didn't I come here!" He Gui said while walking again.

"After a while, they were in a room and his men were thrown on a hard bed.

He Ling was lying on his side on the bed, just as He Gui pointed at him and said to Luo Leizi, "This will be your husband from now on!"

Luo Leizi's small eyes lit up immediately, grinning happily, showing a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and graciously sending He Gui out the door.

He Ling felt that the sky was about to fall, and tears rolled down the sheets from the corners of his eyes. It was not enough for them to ask He Zhen to marry him, and they gave him to Luo Leizi? !

After sending the people away, Luo Leizi quickly turned back, he closed the door, rubbed his hands and stared at He Ling with a covetous face, "Brother Ling, my little beauty, see you every time in the village. Looking at you, my heart is itching, I didn't expect that today, I will be able to taste your taste!"

He walked over to the bed as he spoke, and in He Ling's terrified eyes, he reached out to the buttons of his clothes...

With a crisp sound, Qi Yue just took the teacup in his hand and smashed it to the ground. He stared at the pieces for a while, then squatted down and picked them up one by one, but he always felt stuffy in his heart, a kind of not quite. good feeling.

Could it be that you are getting married tomorrow, and you are nervous? He shook his head and laughed, when did he have so many troubles and thoughts!

After picking up the pieces and throwing them in the trash basket in the courtyard, Qi Yue looked up at the round moon, wondering if He Ling slept or not? Can you sleep well? Have you been bullied by any family

Tomorrow, he will marry him and enter the door. In the future, he will be able to put that person in a place where he can see it from time to time, and he will not be so thoughtful as now!

Qi Yue looked at the moon as if he was looking at He Ling's smiling face. I wonder if he remembered himself at this time

He Ling gasped for breath, and looked at Luo Leizi who fell to the ground in horror, his heart was beating very violently!

Before Luo Leizi touched him, he used all his strength to spread the medicine out of his hand. The medicine Qi Yue gave him was very effective. Luo Leizi fell down as soon as he touched the powder!

He Ling squeezed the empty bottle in his hand tightly, and his palm was full of cold sweat! If Qi Yue hadn't given him this bottle of medicine in advance, he couldn't believe what would happen next! Even though no one was by his side, Qi Yue saved him again.

He struggled for a while and wanted to get up and leave here, but he couldn't move at all. The movement just now had consumed all his strength.

He Ling didn't know how long the bottle of medicine Qi Yue gave him would last, and he didn't know how long the medicine on his body would last. He only hoped that Luo Leizi could sleep longer and recover faster, so that he could be able to sleep earlier. Get out of this nightmarish house.

And on He Zhen's side, if he can't make it in time, Qi Yue will marry He Zhen back!

He closed his eyes, concealed the panic, and waited inwardly for this painful time to pass, hoping that everything would be too late.
