pastoral fragrance

Chapter 209
In the evening, Qiu Song and Qiu He walked to the yard together carrying their schoolbags.Mrs. Han came back from pulling pigweed from the field just now, and now she is chopping pigweed in the stove.Hearing noises outside the house, isn't it just that his two sons have come back?As usual, she put the chopped pig grass in the pig food pot, and ate the pig when it was cooked.

Qiuhe ran outside the house, with a small face dripping with sweat, hurriedly took out two bowls from the cupboard, and first poured himself a bowl of chrysanthemum tea.After pouring it, I started to drink it.After I quenched my thirst, I poured another bowl for my second brother to drink.

Seeing the two brothers getting into this state, Mrs. Han couldn't help but look at the sky outside.It was almost dusk, but the sun was still scorching.This summer is getting closer and closer, and when it is midsummer, I don't know how hot it will be.

"You guys are so good at doing your homework. Mom will be cooking now. San'er, don't just forget about your homework. Go out to play after you finish your homework." Han was a little worried about this little one, and couldn't help but emphasized.Qiuhe is a playful person, and he runs outside with his bamboo arrow all day long, which is really annoying.

Presumably pointing to his success in studying and taking the number one examination, it will definitely fail.Just let him know a few words, so that he won't be blind.

Mrs. Han cleaned out the rice first, then threw the chopped sweet potatoes into the pot together, covered the pot, and put a handful of flammable cypress saplings into the stove hole.At this time, Mrs. Han remembered what Qiulin had said to her during the day, and she couldn't help turning her head to look into the main room.

I saw the two brothers Qiu Song and Qiu He sitting side by side, holding thin and long brushes in their hands, drawing silver hooks on the paper, with a very focused expression.Han Shi carefully looked at Qiu Song's eyebrows, which looked a little immature.Although he is only 12 years old now, he has always been calm and mature.From time to time, immature eyebrows reveal mature meanings.Han thought about Qiulin's words, and felt that it was better to find a chance to ask.

Although Qiu Lin was only eight or nine years old, she was delicate in her thoughts. Maybe she saw something, and deliberately beat around the bush in front of her. The purpose was to let his second brother not miss the girl he wanted to marry.

After Qiusong Qiuhe finished the homework assigned by the master, it was already dark.Qiu He is also a naughty one, which made her go out to play early, although it was dark, but this did not prevent her from playing!Qiu Song saw that only his mother was busy in the kitchen.Oh, the eldest sister and the younger sister went to Heyue's house to ask her to learn how to make silk flowers.

I heard them say that the silk flowers are very beautiful because they are ingenious and ingenious. Not only are they praised by a few girls in the village, but they are also sold very well in the town.Which girl does not love beauty?Nature likes these things.Qiu Song chuckled, walked into the stove room, looked at Mrs. Han's busy figure and said softly, "Mother, let me help you light the fire."

Han Shi was still thinking of finding a reason to be alone with Qiu Song. This is a good opportunity, how could she miss it?Presumably Qiuyue Qiulin and the two went to Heyi's house to learn how to make silk flowers and so on.

Han wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "Then you help choose and wash the lettuce, and I will fry a lettuce later."

Qiu Song nodded, walked into the stove calmly, found a small bench and sat down, then picked up two lettuces and began to choose.Although Qiu Song is studying in the school, he still does the family chopping firewood and bamboo for his father.So it is unambiguous to choose lettuce at this moment, and the action is fast.

Mrs. Han paid attention to the movements on Qiusong's side, and seeing that he was about to finish picking vegetables, he was about to scoop up water and take them out to wash.She knew she couldn't think about it anymore, Qiusong was about to leave the kitchen.

Qiu Song scooped water into the wooden basin, and was about to walk outside the stove with it.At this time, Mrs. Han suddenly said: "Everyone in our Luoshui Village is getting better and better. Boys and girls are all popular. Girls from other villages want to marry in our village. Those boys But it's rare to marry a girl from our village!"

Why did the mother talk about this in front of him? Isn't this what women like to think about most?Qiu Song couldn't understand Han's thoughts, but he still replied: "The life in our village is getting more and more prosperous, and the people in the neighboring villages are naturally envious of it. It's human nature to want to marry a girl." Qiu Song thought it was nothing.

Seeing Qiu Song take another step forward, Mrs. Han hurriedly said: "That's true, those big girls in our village don't worry about getting married now. The door-to-door marriage proposal almost broke the threshold of others." Those who are a little younger, I’m afraid that this will be missed by others, and they are just waiting to come to propose marriage!" She said this, which made Qiu Song feel oppressed, and she couldn’t think that people’s daughters can be let go when they are young. With 120 hearts, isn't it the same for people to get married earlier and get married later?

Big girl?Qiu Song's thoughts sank, Mei Xiang is not considered a big girl now, I'm afraid there are quite a few people who go to her house to propose marriage.What if she fell in love with someone else?If you have so many kisses, you will always be able to see it.Qiu Song pursed his lips and said nothing, but a faint worry appeared in his heart.

Seeing Qiu Song's silence, Mrs. Han's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Qiu Lin really hit the mark?She hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "So, we have to act first when it comes to marriage. Although we are young, we can still book our marriage first, and we can wait two or three years before getting married." If you miss it, you will regret it later.

Hearing this, Qiu Song felt as if he had been enlightened.Mei Xiang is now 14 years old, won't she be fifteen next year?I'm afraid that those who come to propose marriage will really break through her house.No, I have to act first!Qiu Song made up his mind and didn't hold back anymore.Putting the wooden basin aside, he said solemnly: "My child has something that I hope mother can decide."

Seeing this, Mrs. Han knew that Qiu Song really had someone in her heart.He stopped beating around the bush and asked, "Whose girl is it? Don't worry, as long as the girl is not engaged to anyone, Mother will definitely come to the door to let them know." Hey, if someone rejects you, you'll have to look up and down in the future, how embarrassing.I believe that this mother is also a sensible person, and she often knows everything about children's marriages.

Qiu Song blushed and said, "It's Mei Xiang." Although he was shy in his heart, but in order not to make mistakes and make himself regret, he still said it brazenly.

Meixiang?Lao Gen's daughter?Isn't she going to be two years older than Qiusong?Han's eyes were wide open, and she stared at Qiu Song carefully without blinking, as if she would miss something in the blink of an eye.Qiu Song nodded at Han's astonished expression, he was sure that it was Mei Xiang!
After getting confirmation from her son, the Han family finally recovered a bit.In fact, apart from being two years older than Qiusong, Mei Xiang is also a hard-working and carefree girl, with a bright personality and good friends with the eldest sister and four children, so she is also a suitable candidate for a daughter-in-law.After being surprised, Han nodded towards Qiusong. "Don't worry, I'll go to her house tomorrow to take a look and let them in."
