Shen Yunong looked at Liu Qiqiao. It was roughly at this time of the first year. He only took Aping and wore the clothes of ordinary people, but his appearance was too eye-catching when he stood in front of people. People noticed themselves. He asked Aping to get himself a country-style bamboo hat. He wore it and rode with Aping to the village of Liu Qiqiao.
Shen Yunong originally wanted to ask Aping to go to the village to find someone to ask, which is Liu Qiqiao’s home, they planned to sneak over, and take a look, what is so good about Liu Qiqiao, grandmother actually wants to marry a village by herself. Girl.
As a result, A Ping hadn't gone yet, but saw a crowd of boys and girls walking on one side of Tian Geng.
There are seven or eight appearances, they all seem to be the most ordinary teenagers in the countryside, wearing home-woven clothes. There are three or two girls in them. Shen Yunong wanted not to pay attention, but he heard someone: "Qiqiao, is your field ready?"
Shen Yunong was stunned, and looked at each other with Aping, okay, there is no need to look for this, the master is hitting the gun.
These children came over, looking at Shen Yunong’s master and servant standing by the side of the field, they were very curious, and they all looked at them. Fortunately, Shen Yunong’s hat covers most of his face and looks like he is holding a horse. Come here to take a look at him, like a squire from a foreign village.
Although a little curious, these children walked over, and no one looked at Shen Yunong's master and servant.
Shen Yunong waited for them to pass, and then went to see them. At this moment, he saw that there were three girls in total. He looked at them. After all, he also saw Liu Qiqiao. The fatter one, maybe not, the shorter one. Yes, it seems to be about ten years old, and it shouldn't be, then...
Shen Yunong raised her lips and smiled. It really opened up. From the back, the girl is a very slim girl. She is dressed in a brown-beige home-woven blouse. Even if she doesn’t have any style clothes, she can See the waist that doesn't hold a full grip. A few of them stood in the field, and soon dispersed. Shen Yunong didn't know what they were doing, as if they had gathered the scattered and scattered rice stalks on the ground.
Then, someone took out the flint and lit these rice rods. Shen Yunong was taken aback as he watched the smoke rise with the red fire: "What are they doing?"
Aping still has some experience, and said to him: "This has already begun in spring, and the fields should be cultivated. These corn stalks were missed when the crops were harvested in the first year. They were not cleaned up, and they were of no use. Collect them together and burn them on a fire. In this way, the ground is clean and the ashes can be used as fertilizer... This is called burning waste!"
"Oh, so, this is a wasteland! I thought these children were too naughty and were playing with fire!" Shen Yunong said.
These young girls sat on the ground in a circle, afraid that the fire would not be extinguished.
Everyone was talking, and suddenly one asked: "Sister Qiqiao, are you seventeen years old after this year..."
Sure enough, the girl Shen Yunong guessed turned her head, looked over, and replied: "Yes!"
Shen Yunong saw her jade-white face, whiter than these children, with delicate eyebrows, as if feeling Shen Yunong was looking at her, she turned her head back a little embarrassingly.
Shen Yunong felt as if he was scratched by a cat, this Liu Qiqiao was no longer that little girl as expected.
"Hehe, seventeen years old! Sister Qiqiao, you should be a bride! My sister got married just after fifteen in her first year. When she comes back this year, her belly is bigger..." said a little boy.
Liu Qiqiao turned her head away, without making any trouble, the slightly fat girl next to her said: "Sister Qiqiao, has your stepmother hit you again recently?"
Liu Qiqiao moved his head away: "Recently, there have been a lot of family affairs. Tie Zhunian fell ill with a lot of sores on the back of his neck. I don't know what happened? The stepmother didn't have the mind to care about me!
The girl continued: "My mother said, it hurts to see you being beaten all day long. If you don't dislike it, it is better to marry my brother. We promise to treat you well..."
She had just finished speaking, and a half-and-a-half booed: "Er Ah, don't be too embarrassed, your brother's five short stature, the same figure as a cylinder, and he wants to marry sister Qiqiao, dreaming! Sister Qiqiao, Wait, I grow up to marry you!"
After he finished speaking, there was even more boos, and the little boy ran up, pushing this one and hitting that one another.
"Sister Qiqiao is the best-looking girl in our village, my mother said, it's not impossible to marry in the city like this!" said the youngest girl.
Liu Qiqiao nodded embarrassedly, "Don't make fun of me!"
"Are all the people in the city wearing Ling Luo silk and satin, sitting in sedan chairs when they go out, and eating white rice meat every day?" A little child said, finished speaking, swallowed his saliva.
"Stone, you know how to eat it, it will make you greedy!" The big guy laughed at him together.
When Shen Yunong listened to this, he couldn't help being amused.
Looking at it this way, he could see that among these children, Liu Qi is the older one. As the grandmother said, because this girl has no relatives, the family has never offered her a marriage relationship. The mother used her as a maid, wishing that she would become an old girl and work at home every day. This girl is also very capable, so I won't talk about needlework. The skilled and serious embroiderer is the work in the field. , Is also a serious farmer, no wonder her stepmother has not found her in-law's house.
"Speaking of the city, I heard my mother say that she once saw the young master of the richest man in Beijing. My mother came back and said excitedly all night that my father was angry..." said the slightly fat girl.
"Why are you angry?" Liu Qiqiao asked.
"My mother keeps saying that the young master looks good! What if she is a jade? I think my mother is like crazy. No wonder my father is angry. No matter how good-looking a man looks, what can he look like? How happy to be like that!" the fat girl continued.
A Ping couldn't hold back, he chuckled, but fortunately he was not close. The children didn't care. Shen Yunong glared at him, and A Ping shrank his neck in fright, and said with a smile, "Young Master. , Your beauty has come to this country!"
"Don't speak out, listen..." Shen Yunong was also a little funny, but he gave Aping a blank look and told him to endure it. He was also eavesdropping on the children's conversation, which felt quite interesting.
Just when those children were taken aback by this fat girl, they were all talking about what kind of good-looking people they had seen, but none of them was as powerful as the fat girl described as the young master.
At this moment, Liu Qiqiao, who had not spoken all the time, suddenly said: "I have seen..."
She said indifferently, mixed in those messy words, but it was very ear-piercing, and everyone else stopped. The fat girl looked at her yearningly and said, "Sister Qiqiao, tell me, really Is it so good-looking? What's a good view?"
Shen Yunong is here, wishing to stretch his ears over, he is also curious.
Liu Qiqiao whispered: "I didn't see too clearly either. Every time I looked at it from a distance..."
"Oh my God, sister Qiqiao, have you met many times, this young master Shen Da?" the youngest girl asked, eyes gleaming.
"There have been two or three times..." Liu Qiqiao tilted his head, as if thinking about it.
Shen Yunong was on the side, and she thought to herself, she had a heart, why didn't he remember that he had met her before!
"Then what does he look like?" the little girl asked.
Liu Qiqiao shook his head, pursed his lips and smiled: "Isn’t it, every time I’m very far away, I feel that it’s not real, tall, like the Guanyin Bodhisattva we see at every temple fair. How do you sing..."
All the children laughed and sang: "Baoxiang is majestic..."
After singing, the little girl said: "But, Guanyin Bodhisattva is a female!"
Liu Qiqiao laughed and said, "That's right, none of the women I've seen looks better than him..."
Wow-
A crowd of children all had longing faces, and some people whispered: "That's so pretty..."
When Shen Yunong on this side heard this, he was a little surprised, but he smiled again, really a child, this Liu Qiqiao.
At this time, a child over there suddenly said: "Since the Shen family's elder and young master looks so good-looking, sister Qiqiao, marry him!"
There was a silence, everyone was blinded by his words, until they reacted, everyone laughed, even Liu Qiqiao was also laughing!
The chubby girl poked the child's head and said, "What are you talking about! She is the eldest man of the richest family, so how can we like our Seventh Sister..."
The child said aggrievedly: "Sister Qiqiao is the most beautiful girl in our village. My mother said that. What can't you marry!"
Liu Qiqiao lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head and said with a smile: "I don't want to marry such a good-looking person. A good-looking person does not necessarily mean it. Maybe it is an embroidered pillow. If you marry someone, you must marry a sincere person. People!"
The little girl immediately shouted: "Yes, yes, sister Qiqiao, I know who you want to marry, my brother Aniu is the most sincere, you say, don't you, marry me brother Aniu, be my sister-in-law !"
At this moment, these children seemed to have reached a consensus... "Aniu's wife, Aniu's wife..." screamed happily, all booing.
Shen Yunong was on this side, frowning, looking at the children. Of course, what he was most satisfied with was that he was actually beaten by a man named Aniu. Especially, he found that Liu Qiqiao was listening to these children. If she was not angry or annoyed, she didn't refute the title of A Niu's wife, only shy.
Originally, Shen Yunong was just taking a peek, he expected that he was not in line with each other, and gave his grandmother an confession, and then pushed the marriage, that's it.
However, at this moment, he looked at Liu Qiqiao, who was stunned by the children and made her face and cheeks. He suddenly changed his mind and married home. It was not bad, handsome, simple and innocent, and he wanted Tell her to know that she is not an embroidered pillow, but she is a hundred sets better than her favorite brother Aniu!
