idle mistress

Chapter 51
Picking it up and looking at it, she saw that there was a hole in a good pair of shoes before they were worn, and she paid for it herself. She was very distressed, sighed, and put the shoes on the corner of the door.

After finishing everything, she found a needle and thread from the house, pulled a low bench and sat at the door to mend shoes.

After researching for a long time, I don't know where to start. She is good at sewing skin and flesh, but this is really not good.Forget it, do whatever you want, as long as you can fill this hole.

While she lowered her head to thread the needle, she was still humming.The spring breeze is blowing, so pleasant.

The fat woman listened to this strange little tune, and when she came out to take a look, she saw that the girl who was against her was sitting comfortably at the door sewing shoes, the fat woman couldn't help leaning over to watch.

The more she looked, the tighter her frown became.

At such an advanced age, I have never seen such clumsy embroidery skills.In the end, he couldn't help but said: "Can you marry me with your embroidery skills?"

After hearing this, Xu Weiqiu continued to work with his hands, and without raising his eyes, he replied very calmly: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb."

The fat woman has been bullied by her a lot on weekdays, and she is not angry. She looked at her face, and then said: "This person, at least he has to make up for his ugly appearance the day after tomorrow, and his skills must keep up, or else he will marry you." If you don’t go out, you will be an old aunt for the rest of your life.”

"Why do I have to marry someone? Isn't it good for me to live my life freely and at ease?"

The fat woman had already learned from Mrs. Zhang that she did not want to marry another woman, so she couldn't help saying: "Which woman doesn't want to find a good home and have children?"

Xu Weiqiu didn't take it seriously: "What's a good destination? Is my father a good man? Look at my second mother, what did she get in exchange for abiding by women's morals and being a cow and a horse for the Xu family? In exchange for a man's concubine killing his wife, In exchange for tears every day. There is a saying that is good, if a man is reliable, a sow can climb a tree."

Although these words are vulgar, they seem to have some truth, but the fat woman replied stiffly:
"Does a girl who has never been out of the cabinet know what it means to be shy? She speaks as if she has experienced many men. A man should be married when he is a man, and a woman should be married when he is a woman. In this world, there are only nuns who do not marry. Or do you want to go to the mountain to be a man?" Nun? I know there is a good nunnery, and I am quite familiar with the teacher there, how about it, do you want me to recommend it to you?"

Xu Weiqiu raised his eyes and looked at her: "No need, you can keep it by yourself and go there for the elderly." After that, he ignored her and concentrated on sewing shoes, but he was no longer in the mood to sing.

It's not that she hasn't longed for love, but in this other world, she is blindly married, and it is not easy to find a soulmate.She has never been a temperament that can make do, if she can't find someone she likes, she would rather be single for the rest of her life.

When she first came here, she was confused, but gradually she also had her own plans; in her last life, she had a dream of traveling around the world. She wanted to travel to every land on the earth and experience different customs and customs. ; She has been working hard towards that dream, but she regretted leaving the stage before realizing it.

Coming to Cheng Dynasty, the conditions here are limited, and it is impossible to go around the world, but if you take a step back and think about it, you can also appreciate the original natural scenery.

Erniang's health is getting better and better, so she has no worries. In the future, she can focus on making money. When she has saved enough money, she can travel around the world with her bags on her back...it's so beautiful to think about.

Hongyan sat on a long bench in the earthen hut, with a slightly embarrassed face staring at the fat woman sitting a foot away.

The fat woman was very strange, when she saw her visiting, she invited herself in without asking why, and she didn't talk to her, she just sat there and looked at herself rudely.

In order to avoid embarrassment, she deliberately ignored the other party's blatant gaze and looked around. Although the various furnishings of this earthen house are a bit weird, they are far from the rags that my sister-in-law said. The windows are bright and clean, and there is a faint fragrance in the air. .

It seems that her sister-in-law really can't believe it, and many things that come out of her mouth are exaggerated.

Turning her head, she saw that the fat woman was still staring at her with sharp eyes. Under such staring, Hongyan felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She coughed lightly, smiled and said very politely: "Old woman, Er Niang, she When can I come back?"

It is said that stretching out your hand will not hit the smiling face, but the fat woman replied mercilessly: "Who is your mother-in-law?"

The corner of Hongyan's mouth froze, and the atmosphere fell into a stalemate for a while. It seemed that she had come at the wrong time. She couldn't sit down any longer and stood up to say goodbye. Before she could say anything, she heard a familiar voice from outside. Hi, get up and walk quickly to the door.

Sure enough, Zhang Shi and Xu Weiqiu entered the courtyard talking and laughing, followed by a woman, probably the idiot that my sister-in-law was talking about.

"Second Niang." Hongyan called out to the person who came.

Zhang Shi saw that she was stunned for a moment, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually disappeared.

Xu Weiqiu's face also sank immediately: "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

"I'm here to return the things." While talking, he took out the things that Xu Xiaoke walked away from here that day.

Xu Weiqiu didn't go to pick it up, but Shanniu behind her saw that the things in the house were lost, and walked forward happily. Hongyan and her looked at each other. When she saw her appearance, she couldn't help being surprised. She pointed to her forehead and said: "You... aren't you Mrs. Zhufeng?"

This is the wife of her father's friend Uncle Hu. She bought it at a high price. Last year, she became insane. She was so stupid. Uncle Hu ran away without looking after her. I ran here.

I heard my sister-in-law say that there is a fool here, but I didn't expect that I knew him.I heard that she often wanders around the neighborhood, but she is a newcomer, except to go out to pick up water, she usually does not go out of the gate, and the second door does not step, but she has never touched it once.

Shan Niu obviously recognized her too, screamed in fright, and hid in the house with a "swish" like hitting a ghost, without caring about taking her things.

"Shan Niu, what's the matter with you... Shan Niu?" Seeing this, Xu Weiqiu didn't even get a response after calling her a few times, so he couldn't help but looked at Hong Yan suspiciously: "Sister-in-law, do you know her?"

Hongyan thought of the purpose of this trip, she didn't want to get out of the way and quickly denied: "No, I admitted the wrong person."

Judging from Shan Niu's reaction, Xu Weiqiu obviously didn't believe her words.

Hongyan focused all her attention on Zhang Shi, and quickly passed her to meet Zhang Shi: "Er Niang, I'm here to take you home."

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her, remembering how bitter and mean she was some time ago, so she couldn't hold back her words.
