Hearing this, Liu Hai couldn't help being a little flattered.

"The girl praised it! Liu Hai is just a rough person in the mountains. He has nothing to do and sings random songs. It's really unbearable, but it makes the girl laugh."

Say it! With a slightly flustered expression, he saluted again.

Jiu Mei shook her head slightly and replied.

"Brother Qiaozhu is really humble! Let's not talk about the folk songs first, it's just your character and attitude, and there are very few people in the world who can match it! I don't know who else is in Brother Qiaojiao's family?"

"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"

Being so boasted by her, Liu Hai felt a little embarrassed.

"There is an old mother at home!"

"Oh? Brother Woodcutter isn't married yet?"

Liu Hai smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"My family is impoverished, and there is a blind old mother who needs to be taken care of. Which girl can look up to me!"

Hearing that he was not married yet, Jiu Mei's heart was filled with joy.

"Don't hide it from Brother Qiao, what Jiu Mei has heard with her ears these days is Brother Qiao's wonderful singing, and what she has seen with both eyes is the act of kindness and kindness of Qiao Ge. Ninth sister admires Brother Qiao from her heart, and I'm here to share this with you today. Wait, I just want to get married with Brother Qiao, but I don't know what you think?"

Jiu Mei took a breath and said all the words in her heart. After speaking, she only felt that her heart was beating violently, and her face was full of shame.

"what… ?"

Hearing this, Liu Hai was stunned on the spot.

"What the girl said... but is it true?"

For some reason, he blurted out these words.

"Every sentence is true! There is no half-truth."

Seeing her firm expression and resolute tone, Liu Hai felt a little overwhelmed for a while.

In such wild mountains and mountains, a beautiful woman blocked the way and said that she wanted to marry her. How could there be such a good thing in the world

What's more, it's a bit unruly to say such words from a girl's mouth.

Judging from her rich and noble clothes and outrageous temperament, she is obviously not an ordinary woman, maybe a lady from a famous family.

If there is not enough food and clothing in his family, what kind of woman is willing to marry his Liu family as a daughter-in-law? Thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that I am making fun of myself and deliberately playing tricks on him.

Furthermore, even if it were true, how could he be worthy of her on his own terms? Anyway, it's better to get out now

Therefore, Liu Hai stopped talking, picked up dry wood, walked around her and left.

"Hey! Where is Brother Woodcutter going?"

Seeing that the other party didn't reply, Jiu Mei hurriedly stepped forward to stop it again.

"Of course I'm going home!"

"Go home? What about Sister Nine?"

"Of course you are going back to your home! Girl, Liu Hai just wants to chop wood for a good life and take good care of the old lady. What you said is absolutely impossible!"

Liu Hai waved his hand, ignored her, and strode forward.

"No? Why not? Brother Qiaojie is not married, so why doesn't he accept Jiumei? Or is it that Jiumei is not worthy of Brother Qiaoqiao?"

Jiu Mei said, stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and put it on his pole, no matter how hard the bangs tried, she couldn't move one bit.

Liu Hai was helpless, so he had to put down the burden, no more firewood, and ran along the road.

"If it doesn't work, it won't work! Girl, please come back!"

Jiu Mei looked at his retreating back, as if she had seen a wolf, a tiger and a leopard.

It's just that Liu Hai hasn't run far, and suddenly another woman is blocking the road in front of him. Liu Hai is forced to stop. The woman stepped forward and pushed him to the ground with a surprisingly strong force.

"You idiot, my ninth sister is so beautiful and virtuous, what's not worthy of you? She is willing to marry you, that is the blessing you have cultivated in several lifetimes, how dare you push three or four obstacles? If you agree today, just do it. , if you don't agree, I will..."

After the woman finished speaking, she raised her right palm and made a gesture to strike.

Seeing this, Jiumei hurried forward to stop her.

"Eighth sister, don't scare him!"

Liu Hai is squatting on the ground at the moment, just thinking about what happened today? First, the gods helped me when chopping wood, and then I met such a fairy-like character, and I had to pester myself to get married!

Could it be that the old lady burns incense day and night to pray to God, is it really a Bodhisattva manifesting spirit, so she specially gave him such a beautiful daughter-in-law

"Look! My ninth sister loves you so much, what reason do you have to refuse?"

Jiu Mei lifted her bangs and stood aside.

"What are you going to do with me like this?"

Liu Hai's heart is like a mess, but also helpless and wronged.

"Of course I'll go home with you and marry you!"

Jiu Mei replied with a smile like a flower.

"Alas! My family is poor and my mother is blind. You will only endure hardship when you follow me. I really can't bear to be implicated in you!"

With an embarrassed look on Liu Hai's face, he expressed his difficulties.

"What did Brother Hai say? It's natural for a daughter-in-law to take care of her mother-in-law. How can I be afraid of getting involved?"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Hai's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at her.

"You... really don't despise me?"

"Well! Don't dislike it!"

Jiu Mei nodded vigorously.

"Oh! Good! Good! My bangs have really accumulated great virtues in my past life, and I can only marry such a wife in this life. Since that's the case, I promise!"

Liu Hai pondered for a while, sighed deeply, and compromised.

"Hahaha... That's right! What are you still doing? Hurry up and take my ninth sister home and marry her!"

Seeing that the eighth sister had contributed to a happy event, she was also very happy.

When Liu Hai reacted, he only felt like he was in a dream, but he did not forget to turn around and continue to pick up the firewood. His joy was beyond words.

"Eighth sister..."

Jiumei suddenly looked back at her at this moment, with a sad face, but she stopped talking.

"Ninth sister, feel free to go ahead. I will explain to the sisters. The path is yours to choose. I just hope you don't regret it in the future!"

Jiu Mei responded, followed Liu Hai, and left immediately.

Loofah Au, in a dilapidated thatched cottage.

"Cuckoo... Cuckoo..."

A red toad jumped twice and stopped at the corner of the hut.

At this time, frogs and toads can be seen everywhere, not to mention in such a remote mountain village, when it comes to night, it will be endless.

Liu Hai first went to the market to sell firewood and exchanged money and food, and then hurried back home. It was almost dusk, and the sky was gradually getting dark.

"Hai'er, you've been running around all day, you're starving!"

An old woman in shabby clothes said while sitting on the couch in the room.

"Mother! The child is not hungry, but a big happy event happened today!"

"Oh? Where does the joy come from?"

Liu Hai laughed twice, then slowly opened his mouth.

"Mother! I got you a daughter-in-law today!"

As soon as these words came out, the old woman stood up from the bed in shock.

"What? Is it true?"

Jiu Mei took the opportunity to step forward, supported the old woman, and called out softly.

"mother!"

The old woman was still a little unbelieving, but now she heard the call and couldn't help but be ecstatic.

"Hey! That voice is better than that thrush."

But in an instant, it was sad.

"Alas! It's a pity I can't see anything!"

Jiu Mei supported her and continued to sit back on the couch, comforting her with words.

"Mother! It doesn't matter, my daughter-in-law has studied medicine for several years and is proficient in pharmacology, so she will definitely be able to cure your eyes!"

"What? You still heal?"

The old woman was startled, and her bangs were also full of surprise.

"Yeah! I also invite Brother Hai to boil a bucket of water in the well outside, and Jiu Mei will definitely be able to cure her illness."

She said this, in fact, only to spread him away so that she could cast spells by herself.

Liu Hai was skeptical, but he agreed and ran out with hope.

After he left, Jiu Mei closed the door and let the old woman sit on the couch calmly. She opened her mouth and spit out a crimson orb the size of a thumb, which she pinched between her fingers.

Jiu Mei pointed the orb at the old woman, secretly reciting the true secret, and in an instant, the psychic orb radiated two red lights, which shot towards the old woman's eyes like thin lines.

The red light flashed and shone brightly.

The old woman only felt that her eyes were slightly hot and itchy, and she kept blinking, and finally, gradually, it seemed that light came in...
