That Village, That Person, That Fool

The next evening, the village entrance.

The lotus sucked and sniffed her nose, sighed in her hand, and rubbed it hard. She thought it was really cold winter, and it was obviously a little colder today than yesterday. She tilted her head to look at Changsheng, but he sat next to her without feeling cold, looking quietly at the path leading to the outside of the village.

Grandma Four has been away for some days, but at the hour of every day, the long body insisted on coming here and waiting. She said that he had done it a few times, and she was the only one who saw him useless and accompanied him to sit here every day. It was okay for the first few days. These days it seemed like a cold day, and the redness of her nose often caused her nose to freeze, which made her really unbearable.

Lotus moved towards Changsheng, leaning on him, trying to warm herself up. Longevity glanced at her with a tilted head, grabbed her hand, and silently pushed it into his cuff.

The sleeves of Chang Sheng were warm, and the lotus drilled his hands in it, deliberately holding his warm wrist with his cold hands, teasing him: "Is it cool?"

Longevity shook his head, and the corner of the mouth of the lotus rose, and he leaned on him more and more.

The two were so crowded together that it didn’t take long for them to hear the rumor from outside the village. The lotus stretched his neck and looked towards the entrance of the village. However, he saw a few younger generations talking and laughing, and came here. Sun Xingzhou was walking in the front. She unconsciously pulled her hand out of the sleeve of Changsheng and moved it to the side again.

Longevity looked down at his sleeves and tilted his head at the lotus without a word.

Not long after, Sun Xingzhou and his party entered the village and saw lotus flowers in Changsheng at a glance. Sun Xingzhou was a little surprised, and came over head-on, laughing and said, "How is the elder brother and sister-in-law sitting here?"

Lotus quickly stood back and forth: "It's okay to sit at home, come out and breathe."

Sun Xingzhou glanced at Changsheng, and then smiled at the lotus: "It's cold and cold, be careful and cold."

Lotus said a little embarrassedly: "I will go back in a moment..." After he finished speaking, he unconsciously aimed at some of the younger generations behind Sun Xingzhou, all of whom were gentle scholars. After seeing her eyes, they all smiled at her. Nodded.

Sun Xingzhou introduced sideways: "These are my friends in the city, knowing that I am teaching here, and come to gather." After that, he turned to his friend, "This is my sister-in-law Huo. Thanks to her care these days."

When his words fell, a thin and tall scholar approached the lotus and said with a smile: "Sister Huo is courteous and the boat is only here. We friends can't help you on weekdays. Now."

Where has Lotus seen so many clerical scholars in his life, it is inevitable that he will be a little nervous, and said: "No, nothing...should be..."

It seemed that Sun Xingzhou remembered that he was still sitting next to him for a long time, and he quickly introduced to everyone: "This is Brother Huo and Zhou Fuzi's friend."

Everyone turned to the longevity salute, who had been sitting silently aside. The longevity took his head and ignored it completely.

The lotus was extremely embarrassed, and her cheeks were a little red. Fortunately, Sun Xingzhou changed the subject in time and said to her: "I was thinking about going to you for a while, but I have something to trouble you. My friends from I bought some wine and vegetables in the city and wanted to get together at night, but there are not many chaihe in my house. I want to borrow some from you first. It was just right to meet you at this time, why not come to me with Brother Huo Dinner there is also my devotion to borrow flowers and thank you two for taking care of me on weekdays."

Lotus said busy: "No, you eat it. I can cook at home. Chaihe I will let Changsheng send you to you for a while."

Sun Xingzhou didn't let more, thanked the lotus, and left with his friends.

Later, when the lotus and Changsheng returned home, Zhang Luo took the lotus into the courtyard and asked Changsheng to pick him up and send it to Sun Xingzhou. Seeing that Changsheng was very obedient into the stove, he returned to the house and burned the kang. After a while, I watched Changsheng come in empty-handed and returned to the back room.

Lotus followed him and saw that he took off his shoes and drilled the blankets on the kang. He said, "Isn't you going to send firewood, why not?"

Longevity turned over and turned his back to her, and the lotus shot him: "You are a man. How can you let your daughter-in-law run outside in a cold day? Don't you hurt your daughter-in-law?"

He Huayuan thought about carrying her four grandmothers to hurt her daughter-in-law's words. Longevity obediently obeyed whether she wanted to or not. She didn't think that longevity did not move the nest. Instead, she dug into the quilt, no matter what she said, just no Say it. Lotus had no choice but to go to the stove.

Not long afterwards, the lotus flower folded back again, and some angry rushed under the quilt of Changsheng said: "Why did you lock the stove?!" Seeing Changsheng squeaked, he slapped him hard again and said, "Don't Act as stupid with me, I asked Sun Xianggong to send him chai he, what do you mean by locking the door?! As Zhou Fuzi told me before he left, let's help with it. Are you so stingy?! Get the key out soon!"

Lotus said for a long time, longevity just made up her mind to ignore her, and was silent in the quilt. The lotus was so angry that he turned to the outhouse to pick up the firewood used for the ondol and barely tied a small bundle. Then he shouted in the house and said, "Aren't you not opening the door for me? Then you will sleep tonight "Kang Kang!" After that, she took the firewood and went out. She walked to the door of the courtyard and looked around again. She saw a small slit in the window of her house. Longevity was lying there looking out. When she looked back, she crackled. Closed the window with a loud bang.

"The miser!" The lotus stared into the room and turned away.

She only said that lotus reached Sun Xingzhou's residence all the way. She heard the lively laughter in the yard. She was embarrassed to go in. She knocked on the door and handed Cai He to Sun Xingzhou. Sun Xingzhou thanked her again and said that some men in the room were not good enough to invite her to come in and sit. She only asked her to wait a moment and then returned to the house. After a while, she came out again and took something to the lotus. At first glance, the lotus is a small box of rouge.

Sun Xingzhou said: "Yesterday you said no, but I thought I should send you something to express my heart, and I don't know what you like. I just want my daughter's family like rouge and gouache to always like it, so I bought it on my own initiative. This, I hope you don’t dislike it."

The lotus was suddenly at a loss. If something else she refused when she was standing, she looked at the little box of rouge but hesitated. She has never had this thing, but there is one of her little sister, Taohua, which she bought for her when her sister-in-law went into the city to sell vegetables. She wiped it back every time she returned to the door, with her red face and red lips. . She likes envy in her heart. She secretly thinks that when she marries someone, she will ask her to buy it from her husband, which is redder than the peach blossom one.

The lotus is a little emotional, she really wants one, but her little daughter-in-law doesn't seem to receive things from other men...especially this kind of thing...

She was hesitating to refuse, but Sun Xingzhou opened her mouth first, saying, "It's not anything of value, but the sister-in-law just accepts it. It's only for the change of firewood money. If you talk about it, it really won't match you and Brother Huo has given me the food to eat these days...I have a selfishness, I just want to trouble you for so long, and I don’t have a reward. I feel uncomfortable. If you don’t accept this thing, I will have it later. What is difficult, but I am really embarrassed to talk to you again."

Lotus knew that she should say something politely, but looking at the tiny box of rouge, she felt itchy and reached out to catch it unconsciously.

Sun Xingzhou said with a smile: "This is it."

The lotus only regrets the thing after receiving it, but the thing has been picked up and it is not easy to return it, hesitant to know what to say.

At this moment, he suddenly heard that Sun Xingzhou's friend in the courtyard called him. Sun Xingzhou responded and replied, "You eat first, and I will send Husband Huo back."

Lotus said busy: "No, you go in the house, I just go back."

Sun Xingzhou said: "It's late in the sky, although it's my own village, but your daughter's house is not safe. If something goes wrong, how can I get rid of it? It's not good to explain to Brother Huo and Zhou Fuzi, right?"

The lotus asked again, but Sun Xingzhou had already turned around and closed the courtyard door. Lotus must not refuse, so Sun Xingzhou had to send her back.

On the way, the two of them didn't speak, and the lotus always felt nervous like a thief. On two occasions, there was movement on the side of the road. She thought it was someone, and a heart almost popped out of her throat. She also wandered around the village with a man in the evening. When I got to the door of my house, I was sweating in the palm of my lotus. I hurriedly turned to Sun Xingzhou and said: "Thank you, please go back quickly and don't let your friends wait too long."

Sun Xingzhou said with a smile: "Send someone to the end, I watch you go in and go again, it's not bad for a while."

The lotus heart jumped a few times, and did not dare to tell him more, and entered the hospital with his mouth closed.

In the room, Changsheng lay prostrate on the edge of the window and looked out. He saw the lotus entering the yard, snapped the window closed and drilled back into the quilt.

The lotus was a little preoccupied. He didn't hear anything at all. When he entered the room, he saw Longevity curled up in the bed. He quietly took the copper mirror on the table to the outhouse, lit the oil lamp, took out the rouge box in his arms, scraped a little bit of rouge with his fingertips and rubbed it on his face, picked up the mirror and moved to the front Take a look.

Two bright red faces on her face in the mirror looked awkward, far away from Taohua's red look...

She thought it was probably because she didn't paint her lips. She nodded a little blusher on her lips, sipped them, and then took photos.

It seems even stranger... How do you think about the appearance of Aunt Zhang Er in the next village when she jumps into the gods...

The lotus is a little discouraged. I think it may be that I am not as good-looking as peach. She wiped her face with a wet handkerchief, and then took a mirror photo. She still looked as she was, and she thought she would be gone for a lifetime.

She sighed, buckled the rouge box, returned to the house and put it in the cupboard, and leaned in front of Changsheng to pat lightly, whispering, "Changsheng, you give me the key to the kitchen, I'll get some Chai He burned the Kang."

Longevity did not answer, the lotus screamed a few more times, he still ignored.

Lotus knew that Longevity would not hear it, he was probably angry. If she said that she was arrogant about the unreasonable harassment of longevity before going to deliver chaihe, but now she has some inexplicable guilty conscience, seeing him not deliberately ignoring her, it seems that he has no confidence to speak loudly, and he is free. Kang slept on the clothes.
