Chapter 88 Section 093

Section 093 Huo Sangong visits

Anxiu bowed her head and did not speak. She has no experience in this kind of thing, so she can't make rash comments.The second aunt was full of satisfaction for the good of Juanzi.Anxiu herself has a superficial understanding of life, so how can she teach others?

"Why, you also think that your aunt did something wrong?" Shi Li turned her eyes coldly, and stared straight at Anxiu.

Anxiu was busy trying to please her with a smiling face: "Where is it? What Second Aunt did was right. You are doing it for the best of Juanzi, and she will definitely understand in the future."

"I still don't know what your little girl is thinking?" Mrs. Li snorted coldly, "I always think that lover is better than my mother, but my mother is just thankless. I won't check for her at this pass, who is really good for her?" ? Blame me for the rest of my life and I will admit it."

Anxiu hurriedly laughed along, saying yes, yes, the second aunt was right.

In view of Anxiu's good attitude and good flattery, the second aunt didn't ask whether she agreed with her point of view.Thinking of Juanzi's distraught appearance, Li Shi's heart ached again.She is also a soft-hearted person. She thought that she could be cold-hearted and act rationally and fairly when things were going on. She regretted it when she really finished it.

Although Juanzi is a bit pungent on weekdays, she is a girl after all. Which girl's love heart is not fragile?
He Youbao and He Yuer didn't come to eat New Year's cake after all.He Youbao didn't want to bother other people's homes all the time, He Yuer couldn't let go of her quilt, she started changing the new one today, so she had to finish it today.In the end, only He Shusheng came to explain for He Youbao and He Yuer.

During the meal, Anxiu kept looking at He Juan intentionally or unintentionally, she was really not angry at all, she was completely numb.

In a blink of an eye, it is New Year's Eve.

In the afternoon of New Year's Eve, we have to bid farewell to the New Year's Eve and offer incense to all the ancestors in the family.The four He Youbao brothers and their respective sons were a mighty pedestrian.Anxiu felt quite resentful that women who had passed away could not go. In the previous world, she would follow her father and uncle back to her hometown to bid farewell, and she missed it very much.

But the rules are the rules, and they won't change just because of An Xiu.

He Yu'er said yesterday that he wanted to make a dress for An Xiu, but An Xiu didn't want to spoil her interest, so she agreed.He Yu'er measured her in the evening, and started to make it without eating dinner. She went to bed late at night and got up early in the morning to do it again, as if in a daze.Anxiu felt that when the Chinese New Year came, Yu'er seemed to be very abnormal, and her heart felt chilly.

What happened to this child, she was fine a year ago, why is she so abnormal when the new year comes?

When I come back from the old year, I have to take my ancestors home for the New Year.After setting a table with good food and dishes, burning incense and setting off cannons, Anxiu was still unable to attend.

When everything is busy and the sky is dark, it's time to eat New Year's Eve dinner.

Anxiu cooked twelve dishes, which filled a table, and four people sat down according to their status: He Youbao was the chief, Anxiu was the second, He Shusheng and He Yuer were the third and fourth seats respectively.

Eat, drink, and say auspicious words to each other.An Xiulian toasted He Youbao, wishing him good health, He Yuer and He Shusheng were unwilling to lag behind An Xiu, and also respected He Youbao.

He Youbao accepted their toasts with a smile and drank every cup.At the end, he seemed a little drunk, and smiled at An Xiu and sighed, "Xiu, thank you, father! Since Yu Erniang passed away, this is the most comfortable year for father, and our old He family thank you!"

Anxiu suddenly felt her eyes moist, as if she saw the shadows of her parents in the dim candlelight.This is the first time that she does not celebrate the New Year with her parents, and she will never have another chance in the future.Sniffing, Anxiu suppressed her disappointment, and smiled: "I should be the one to say thank you. Dad, the old He's family gave me a place to live. Without the old He's house, I might live on the street now."

He Shusheng and He Yu'er didn't speak, but they had deep feelings for each other.It is said that the family is a fate cultivated by each other in previous lives, He Shusheng believed this, otherwise why would Anxiu appear in his house?Yes, when he grows up, there should be no other women in his home, but that one is not Anxiu.

A slight change, in exchange for a different life trajectory of a lifetime.Back then, if Anxiu hadn't fainted in the field, she wouldn't be his family.He Shusheng breathed a sigh of relief, really lucky.

He Youbao smiled: "It's dad who is heretic!"

He Youbao finally drank too much and became groggy after eating. An Xiu helped him go back to his room to rest.

On the evening of thirty, she had to wait for the farewell to leave the sky, so Anxiu had to wait until midnight to set up cakes and set off firecrackers.Seeing that both He Shusheng and He Yu'er were dozing off, he said, "Both of you, go back to sleep. I'll wait by myself."

While yawning, He Yu'er insisted: "Sister Xiu, Yu'er is with you!"

He Shusheng would not let Anxiu be alone, so he stood up and walked around casually to wake himself up.After drinking, Anxiu felt a little overwhelmed, her head was dizzy all the time, so she got up and said, "I'll go to the yard to blow some air, so I can wake up."

He Shusheng was also very sleepy, and said, "I'll go too!"

"I'll go too!" He Yu'er agreed.

An Xiu smiled, but her heart was extremely warm, and happiness hit her heart one after another.

There was no wind in the yard, and the sky was dark with a few scattered stars.Although there was no wind, it was astonishingly cold. As soon as they left the house, the three of them shivered at the same time.

The three of them stood in the yard freezing to wake themselves up, it was silly.Anxiu suddenly remembered something, and smiled at the two of them: "Let's light a firewood and roast sweet potatoes to eat."

In fact, He Shusheng and He Yuer ate very full at night and were not hungry at all, but when they heard An Xiu's proposal, they were very excited and quickly agreed.He Shusheng went to fetch firewood, Anxiu took out turpentine and cow dung, and He Yuer went to pick out several large sweet potatoes from the bamboo basket in the kitchen.

When the fire was shining together, the three of them were very happy. The raging fire was like a picnic.He Yu'er buried the sweet potatoes in the fire, and then moved out of the small mat. The three of them sat around the fire. It wasn't cold in the front, but the back was chilly.

"Sister Xiu, please sing for us. My brother said you sing well." He Yu'er suggested that it was boring to just sit.The last time they came back from picking lotus, He Shusheng told He Yuer that Anxiu sang well.

He Yu'er betrayed herself, and He Shusheng's face turned red, but he couldn't see clearly under the night light.

An Xiu chuckled, and said after a while, "How can I sing? Last time it was just a little tune from my hometown."

"But I haven't heard that little tune..." He Yu'er pursed her mouth and said aggrievedly, she put her hand on the fire, but it was still freezing cold.

Anxiu had no choice but to sing again.For those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, this little wish can still be fulfilled, but just as he opened his mouth, before he finished singing the phrase "Jiangnan can pick lotus", he was choked by the wind and coughed.

He Shusheng patted her on the back and dismissed her unhappily: "Be careful!"

Anxiu was funny and angry.

"Yu'er, let's sing. Has Yu'er heard of singing?" Anxiu changed the subject, thinking that he could teach He Yuer a few songs.I am not good at dancing, but my voice is not too bad, I can teach He Yuer.Not to mention being good at singing and dancing in the future, but only a little something new.

Anxiu can guarantee that her songs are absolutely fresh.

"The warm wind outside the curtain and the rain inside the curtain, the air drips and the glass is green. Across the river, the moon is moving and the flowers are still asleep, and the ground is falling red, dyeing the sleeves in vain. Standing on a tall building at dusk and autumn. Strings, so what. Cooking wine invites the shadows to chant Nanpu, and the northern geese return by themselves. The mood is hard to get rid of, and there is more sorrow in the broken voice." As soon as Anxiu's words fell, He Yu'er sang slowly, and sang at a high note, changing One tune, sing it again.

He Shusheng was stunned.

Anxiu didn't understand what she sang, but felt that the lyrics were full of worries, too literary and artistic.But where did He Yuer learn such a literary thing?She is a peasant girl.

Anxiu's back tightened, and just as she was about to ask, He Yuer's big teardrops rolled down from her eyes, and she threw herself on her knees, crying out of breath.

Anxiu and He Shusheng both panicked, hurriedly supported her, and kept asking her if she was not feeling well?

He Yu'er raised her head, threw herself into An Xiu's arms, hugged her tightly, and continued to cry, her voice became quieter, but tears wet An Xiu's shoulders.

Anxiu stroked her back and tried to calm her down: "It's okay, Yuer, what's wrong with you? Tell Sister Xiu, Sister Xiu will help you. Don't cry!"

"Sister Xiu, I have a headache!" Only then did He Yuer find an excuse for her crying, she sniffed, and her voice revealed the tenderness of a little girl, "I'm going to bed, sister Xiu, save the sweet potatoes for me, I'll eat them tomorrow morning Get up and eat."

Anxiu's doubts were really diverted because of her words, she hurriedly stroked her head, and asked worriedly: "Is the pain very bad?"

He Yuer just looked at her with wide, watery eyes, and shook her head: "I've been drinking, my head hurts."

Hearing her explanation, Anxiu felt relieved, touched her cheek, it was freezing cold, and hurriedly carried her back to the room.He Shusheng followed behind, the worry and distress in his eyes were undisguised.

Adding a quilt for He Yuer, tucking the corners of the quilt tightly, An Xiu kissed her cheek, and asked softly, "Does your head still hurt?"

He Yu'er shook her head, unwilling to talk much, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.Seeing that she was really sleepy, Anxiu sighed, turned around and walked out without saying anything.

When Anxiu and He Shusheng went out together, the door creaked shut. He Yuer slowly opened her eyes and looked at the roof emptyly. pillowcase.

After a while, He Yu'er realized that Anxiu would be worried if the pillow towel was wet, so she turned the pillow over and wiped away her tears.But the tears seemed to break the embankment, couldn't stop, fell down, and got wet again on the back of the pillow.He Yu'er no longer has any scruples.

It was indeed cold outside, and the fire was burning brightly. An Xiu and He Shusheng were sitting around, both of them seemed to be preoccupied.Since the Chinese New Year is approaching, He Yu'er has been abnormal. Today, she sang such lyrics that did not match her talent and knowledge for no reason, and cried for no reason, as if she had been suppressed for a long time.

"Xiu, is this a disease?" He Shusheng said suddenly.

"Ah? What is a disease?" An Xiu didn't understand.Because He Yuer suddenly cried?Everyone has things that are depressing.

"In the past, you didn't talk and didn't want to do things when the New Year was approaching. I caught you crying secretly several times, every year, and you'll be fine after the New Year. Now you're all right, Yu'er is like this again, with you It was exactly the same before..." He Shusheng sighed, "Why is this happening?"

Anxiu was stunned, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly appeared in her heart. This situation is indeed a bit strange.Is it really a disease, or an infectious disease?

"Aren't I stupid before?" Anxiu recalled that when she first got dressed, everyone was very surprised that she would quarrel with Xiao Shi, and looked at her like a rare animal.

"Nonsense!" He Shusheng was unhappy, "Why do you say that about yourself? You didn't say it yourself. You don't want to take care of those people. They pull you to talk and you just laugh at them? Now why do you say you are stupid? Xiu, you won't Are you sick too?"

Oh, it turned out to be pretending to be stupid.

Okay, what is this body master pretending to be doing?

Anxiu hurriedly supported her forehead, and knocked it pretendingly: "No, I'm awake, it's just that what happened a year ago is so vague, I can't remember many things, it's really strange!"

He Shusheng was distressed and did not speak.Anxiu peeked at him, it's fine, she didn't want to continue asking!If there was anything that pleased her most about He Shusheng, it was his ability to play dumb!For things that he didn't understand An Xiu and didn't want to explain, he always acted stupid.

The two gradually stopped talking, as if they had nothing in common.Anxiu's mind is how to make money, and He Shusheng's mind is how to get a title on the gold list, soaring to the sky, and ideally they cannot communicate.Looking at his profile, he still looks like a child, but he is already very good-looking.

He Shusheng's brother and sister are the same as the children of the uncle's family, and they are considered outstanding in appearance.

Anxiu sighed, and reached out to touch his hair. How many studies and hardships does this peasant boy have to go through to realize his dream and stand out?
When He Shusheng saw Anxiu making out with him suddenly, his face flushed, he bowed his head and did not speak.

As the night darkened, the sweet potatoes were all roasted, and the fire gradually dimmed.Pulling out the sweet potato, Anxiu and He Shusheng held it in their hands and ate it.The sweet potatoes just pulled out are a little hot, but very sweet.An Xiu took a sip, but couldn't take it anymore.

She just doesn't like sweet potatoes.

When I was in high school, every autumn and winter, everyone went home after evening self-study, and everyone would bring a roasted sweet potato at the school gate.Anxiu always stood quietly by the side.There is a boy in the same class who goes the same way as Anxiu, and buys it for Anxiu every time. He thinks that Anxiu has no pocket money.An Xiu held it in her hand, although she was smiling, she really wanted to hit him directly in the face.

That boy later got into the same university with An Xiu, and the two became good friends. An Xiucai knew that he liked Kao sweet potatoes very much, and couldn't understand why some people thought that roasted sweet potatoes were not delicious.

Thinking of this, the corners of Anxiu's mouth curled up unconsciously.

"Xiu, what are you laughing at? Why don't you eat it?" Seeing Anxiu take a bite, He Shusheng frowned and stopped eating. He held it in his hand to keep warm, remembering what he was giggling at, and couldn't help reminding her, "Is the sweet potato cold?" tasty!"

Anxiu continued to hold it in her hand, black ashes in one hand, just smiled: "It's okay, I don't want to eat it, let's feed it to the dog later!"

Although her dog has supernatural powers, it eats whole grains and is not picky about food.Anxiu is very satisfied with this point, at least she doesn't have to be so special that she needs to match the living standards of human beings every day.

"Wrong food!" He Shusheng said displeased.

Seeing that he is still so frugal, Anxiu recalled how he looked when the family was just separated, the whole old lady who was stingy, Anxiu would jump up when she wasted a little.Now although he is dissatisfied with Anxiu's waste, he still talks about her, but he just has his mouth full, and he doesn't have the shabby air he had before.

Anxiu told him about it.

When He Shusheng heard this, his eyes widened angrily: "Nonsense, how could I have been stingy back then?"

You still don't admit it, dawg!Anxiu pursed her lips and said nothing, she quietly looked at him and smiled.She laughed at the goosebumps all over He Shusheng's body, and she was immediately discouraged: "At that time, I couldn't eat enough. Of course I was afraid that you would spend money recklessly. That's not being stingy, that's knowing how to live! Our family, except you, will live. !"

Anxiu casually gave him a shudder: "You are just living life, I am enjoying life. Silver is only valuable if it can buy happiness and comfort. Otherwise, it is cold metal." After finishing speaking, he coughed, "Or waste paper! "

He Shusheng laughed loudly: "I can't tell you!"

The two were chatting and laughing, He Yu'er could hear it in the back room, the pain in her heart was a little bit better, no matter what she had experienced before, it was already in the past, she is a brand new person now.There is a father, brother, and sister-in-law who love me. When I grow up in the future, I don’t need to be strong to be with a farmer. I just need to be diligent and motivated; he plows the fields, she helps the village, and has a few children. happiness.

Wrapped in rich clothes and fine food, it is the exhaustion of intrigue and the defense of false emotions.If you are tired, you really don't care about everything.

As the night gradually deepened, frost fell on the heads of Anxiu and He Shusheng, both of them felt their bodies were completely chilled, and the warmth of the firelight was only left afterglow.Finally, someone in the neighborhood set off cannons, and midnight finally came.When the sound of cannons became more and more loud, Anxiu and He Shusheng set up cakes in the yard and set off long firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the new year!
"Shu Sheng, come back from the examination for a scholar next year!" Anxiu yelled against the sound of the guns.

"Oh!" He Shusheng responded affirmatively, and then both of them laughed.

Only at this moment did Anxiu feel that her life was very valuable. It wasn't just getting by at work, or spending time surfing the Internet without ambition, but life.Live a good life for the people around you, and live for the happiness of life.

After picking up Tianfang, both of them went back to their respective houses.In the past, He Shusheng was too young to sleep with Anxiu, but now that he is studying, Anxiu doesn't agree with him even more.You must concentrate on studying, and don't think about the love of your children.He Shusheng is precocious and can understand many things.An Xiu wanted to endure him for a few years, so don't indulge him.When I really become a landlord, I want to reconcile with him and marry a wife and take concubines for him.

Get divorced now, and the people in Zhuangzi will laugh at her.But in the hearts of people in Zhuangzi, it is normal for a landlord to have three wives and four concubines.

With money, others look up to your life, and when they look up, they can't see the back side of your life, they can only see the brightest side.The landlord's family did not marry a concubine, so he was laughed at, and wondered in his heart whether his family was lonely, and he couldn't even afford a concubine.

When she returned to the room, He Yu'er had already fallen asleep, but her body was still cold, and there was no warmth in the bed.Anxiu was very distressed and hugged her in her arms.Gradually, the quilt became warmer, and the person fell into a chaotic sleep, and the warmth along the way was compelling.

He Yuer groaned in her sleep, lay down in Anxiu's arms, and continued to sleep.I have a lot of dreams, all of which are the happy feeling of spring and flowers blooming.

The Spring Festival is spent eating, drinking, and visiting relatives and friends, and the world Anxiu lives in is no exception.It's just disappointing that women are not allowed to visit relatives during the Spring Festival.It is considered very unlucky to go to people to pay New Year's greetings on the New Year's Eve.

He Youbao and He Shusheng were so busy that they paid tribute to this relative's family and that relative's family all day long.Anxiu and He Yu'er were a little flustered.Apart from He Shusheng's grandfather and uncle, there were no other relatives in the family.He Youbao's seniority is relatively small, and he is only able to give gifts to others, but not to receive them.

The whole Spring Festival was spent by Anxiu taking Yu'er to Aunt Xu's house and Erbo's house, and Aunt Xu bringing He Juan, He Feng, and Aunt Xu bringing her daughter-in-law Xiao Xu to Anxiu's house.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, this year has completely passed.

He Juan was still in a bad mood, depressed all day long, even Aunt Xu could see that something was wrong with her, and asked An Xiu what was wrong, An Xiu only said that Aunt Xu was overthinking; No longer frantically embroidering, like a child, circling around Anxiu, sometimes helping Anxiu to light a fire, sometimes playing with the dog.Anxiu and He Shusheng never mentioned the lyrics she sang on New Year's Eve or her crying.

The whole family is used to this kind of days of pretending to be stupid.As long as she is safe and sound, Anxiu will not ask for anything.I wanted to ask her what happened several times, but when the words came to my lips, I remembered that she had never asked about my abilities, so I swallowed them immediately.I can't even be inferior to an eight-year-old child.

During the Chinese New Year period, old man Li was in poor health and was always sick. Anxiu told him not to come, and settled his wages as usual.Uncle Li didn't ask for it, he just said that when he recovered, he would calculate the wages as he wanted.In fact, ever since He Youbao got well, Old Man Li felt that he was superfluous in Anxiu's house.Anxiu clearly sympathized with him and let him continue herding the cattle.

With such thoughts, old man Li couldn't stay any longer. He felt that he was just eating away at food and wasting Anxiu's food and money.

So he began to pretend to be sick, thinking that after the new year, he completely quit the job.Although my life is difficult, I am not qualified to let other people's dolls support me.In the past, Anxiu needed someone to herd cattle, and she took care of her job herself. Although she knew it was an advantage, it was all her own hard work.Now, it's entirely Anxiu's charity.

There is no difference between yourself and a beggar!He doesn't care about self-esteem. When survival and dignity are threatened at the same time, dignity becomes meaningless, and he can't live anymore. Why should he be ashamed?If there is no skin left, how will the hair be attached?

But old man Li felt sorry for Anxiu.It's not easy for her, earning a little bit of money, just raising an idler like this.In the long life of old man Li, he has experienced riches, poverty, and lack of family affection. Since he lost all his family property and forced his wife to death, he spent the rest of his life paying off his debts.During the long process of repaying the debt, only Anxiu treats him well, treats him as a human being, and respects him!
He couldn't drag such a kind-hearted doll for his own old bones.

He Youbao has already recovered. Anxiu's neighbors told Anxiu several times that she should fire Old Man Li, but Anxiu just laughed it off.

Old man Li thought, let's go by himself and let the people in Hejiazhuang see that he still has some backbone.My four children are all married, and all the debts I owed in my life have been paid off!

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is destined to be an unusual day.

An Xiu was cooking in the kitchen, while He Youbao was sweeping the courtyard, feeding the chickens and dogs, cleaning the cowshed, and preparing to put the cow dung on the wall to dry.

He Shusheng got up early in the morning to practice calligraphy, and the school didn't start until after the first month. He could live at home until the end of the first month, but he didn't dare to waste his studies at all.This autumn happens to be the triennial scientific examination, and if you pass the examination, you are a scholar.What Anxiu said on New Year's Eve, He Shusheng kept in mind that he must show Anxiu a talent examination.

He Yuer was washing clothes by the well.The well water in winter is slightly warm, not as bitingly cold as the river water, so when He Yuer strongly asked for help with the laundry, Anxiu did not refuse.

Seeing He Yuer's abnormality last time, Anxiu was a little scared, afraid that she would be deformed. Since she is willing to eat fireworks, why didn't she give her a chance?In this way, He Yuer became Anxiu's washing machine.Seeing her little forehead sweating several times, Anxiu couldn't bear it, saying that Yu'er should stop washing and let me do it.

On the contrary, He Youbao was more open than Anxiu, and said with a smile: "Xiu girl, let Yu'er wash it, she only embroiders, and her bones are stiff, doing this kind of work is not tiring, and it can loosen her muscles and bones."

He Yuer responded immediately: "That's right, Sister Xiu, I'm not tired!"

Anxiu had no choice but to give up.

After Anxiu's breakfast was cooked, He Youbao's courtyard was cleaned, and He Yuer's clothes were finished drying, he dried his hands and went to the kitchen to warm his hands in the stove.

"Is it cold?" An Xiu pinched her face.

"It's not cold." He Yu'er said firmly.

He Youbao had already cleaned the courtyard and set the table for dinner when he heard a knock on the door.The courtyard door was closest to the kitchen, Anxiu hurriedly asked He Yuer to open the door.He Yuer let go of her little feet and ran away, then shouted into the kitchen, "Sister Xiu, Old Man Li is here."

Anxiu smiled slightly. Uncle Li hadn't been here since the end of the year, so He Youbao had to do the cattle herding himself.Now that he has just turned fifteen, he has started working.

"Old man, are you here? It's just right, we haven't eaten yet." An Xiu rushed out to greet him.

With a smile on his face, old man Li changed into a brand new outfit, new padded jacket, new padded shoes, he looked good, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Happy New Year, girl Xiu!"

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year, better every year." An Xiu seemed to be reciting lines.This sentence is the standard answer here to respond to other people's greetings for the New Year. When He Shusheng began to teach her, Anxiu Baobuhan has already read it very skillfully.

"Old man, your padded jacket is beautiful, did your daughter make it?" Anxiu asked.She knew that old man Li couldn't be willing to buy new clothes, and they must be gifts from his children, so she asked deliberately.Every old man likes to show off the filial piety of his children.

Uncle Li smiled: "Yes, the girl made it herself, it's so warm." In fact, he borrowed it from other old men in Tongzhuangzi. If he came here in shabby clothes, Anxiu would definitely not agree to his resignation.I have troubled Anxiu enough, and the dolls have to be filial to their own elders, so how can I have the right to enjoy them?

An Xiu and He Yuer both laughed.

"Brother is here?" He Youbao came out to greet him, "I haven't come for a while. Come in and warm up, just in time for us to eat."

"No, no, I've eaten at home." Uncle Li quickly refused, and smiled at Anxiu, "Xiu girl, I'm just here to say something. My daughter is going to pick me up to live. She married to Mawangji, so it's a good distance from here." It’s far away, I can’t graze cattle for your family anymore.”

After saying this, his face darkened.

Anxiu was sincerely happy for him: "Old man, this is a good thing. Your daughter took you to live there, and you won't be alone in the future. Congratulations!"

He Youbao and He Yuer also said congratulations.This is indeed a good thing. Old man Li's sons and daughters finally recognized him and accepted him to live with him.

The old man Li smiled wryly, and he was about to leave after speaking.Anxiu held him back, no matter what, he wanted to finish the breakfast.

Old man Li had no choice but to sit down and eat the last breakfast with them.Thinking of the life of helping Anxiu herd cows for the past six months, old man Li felt rippling in his heart, he was really reluctant to part with these children and his cow babies.

After breakfast, Anxiu prepared a small gift for Uncle Li, thanking him for his hard work for half a year: a piece of cloth, [-] Wen, wrapped in blue cloth.Old man Li declined and said no, An Xiufei fortified it into his hands, He Shusheng and He Yu'er supported him, even He Youbao told him to take it.

Old man Li's eyes were slightly wet, and he took it.

Anxiu and He Shusheng sent Uncle Li all the way to Zhuangzikou. For some reason, Anxiu felt sore.It was as if someone had left her life suddenly and completely, no matter how insignificant the role he played, but when it came time to leave, Anxiu felt strangely sad.

"Xiu, let's go back." Until the figure of old man Li disappeared from sight, An Xiu hadn't recovered, and He Shusheng pushed her shoulder.

Anxiu took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go back." In one's life, there will be too many passers-by who make you feel warm.But a passerby is a passerby, and you will not stay longer because of your reluctance.Many people are destined to be just passers-by, like Uncle Li.

The sun was good, and it shone warmly on their bodies, elongating the figures of An Xiu and He Shusheng, one tall and one short, looking very at ease.He Shusheng still looks like her younger brother, still a child.

"Miss An..." Someone called her loudly.

An Xiu and He Shusheng were taken aback for a moment, and when they turned around, they saw a carriage galloping behind them, driven by Jin Yutang's buddy Ling Erhu.

Anxiu and He Shusheng were slightly surprised, they only came to fetch food yesterday, so they should come again tomorrow, why did they come suddenly today?Anxiu and He Shusheng leaned against the side of the road to give way to the carriage.When the carriage approached Anxiu, it stopped slowly, and the curtain was lifted. Shopkeeper Fu stretched out his head and said with a smile, "Miss An, Happy New Year!"

It turned out that it was Shopkeeper Fu who came.

Anxiu said the standard phrase to answer "Happy New Year" to shopkeeper Fu again, articulate.

"Miss An, you are getting better and better every year!" Another head stuck out from the carriage.With a flash in front of An Xiu's eyes, he had already jumped out of the carriage, stood in front of An Xiu, and looked at her with a smile.

It was the drunkard third son Huo that he met in Jin Yutang last time, an ordinary handsome man, An Xiu could never forget it with his photographic memory.Today he passed on a sapphire blue robe, which set off a handsome face with slanted sword eyes and vermilion lips with redness.Anxiu hurriedly smiled and said, "Happy New Year, third son."

This is Jin Yutang's biggest customer and his own rich man.For the rich man, Anxiu has always been willing to use false words.

"Miss An remember me?" Third Young Master Huo was slightly stunned, looking at An Xiu's face inquiringly.

He Shusheng coughed, pulled Anxiu's sleeve, and told her to stand back a little, the distance between her and Mr. Huo San was too close.

Anxiu was originally a little annoyed by Huo San, but when He Shusheng pulled her, she couldn't help smiling. She felt that her little husband was sometimes very mature and cute, so she also listened to him, and took two steps back before saying, "I saw you in Jinyutang last time." Yes, the third son has forgotten?"

"I thought Miss An forgot." Mr. Huo said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Fu was happy to see that Anxiu still remembered Mr. Huo.Since seeing Anxiu last time, Third Young Master Huo had disappeared suddenly for nearly three months, and only appeared suddenly at the end of the year.Shopkeeper Fu wondered whether he had offended him.The third son of Huo only said that there was nothing to do. He went to sea to sell goods by himself, and then he came back. As soon as he came back, he went straight to Jinyutang.

Regardless of whether these words are true or not, shopkeeper Fu's heart finally settled down.

Third Young Master Huo has always praised Jin Yutang's off-season vegetables. He wanted to meet the girl who delivered the vegetables. Shopkeeper Fu didn't dare to offend him, so he had to tell the truth and agreed to his request to bring him to Anxiu for New Year greetings.Along the way, he felt restless, afraid that Anxiu would be unhappy.

Shopkeeper Fu remembered that Anxiu said that her man was young, it was inconvenient for male guests to come to the house, and he would gossip in the village.Seeing Anxiu didn't seem to be unhappy now, shopkeeper Fu's heart settled down, and he said with a smile: "Miss An, Mr. Huo has always said that he would come to pay you New Year's greetings. I was afraid that your family is busy, so I brought him here today." Come, don't delay your time, right?"

Anxiu smiled, so what if it was delayed?It’s impossible to ask him to go back when he’s here, so he has to be a good person: “Don’t delay, the year is over, the spring planting hasn’t started yet, and the house is idle. The third young master can come to my house and make the humble house flourish.”

Third Young Master Huo smiled: "I thought Ms. An wouldn't say these polite words, she might want to say something better than me."

"I have dealt with shopkeeper Fu a lot, so I naturally have more knowledge. Shopkeeper Fu is very knowledgeable." Anxiu brought the topic to shopkeeper Fu.

All three laughed.

Anxiu led them home, and He Shusheng glanced at Third Young Master Huo several times, always feeling that he had malicious intentions, as if he had come with some purpose.

Anxiu would not be so stupid as to believe that Mr. Huo just came to pay New Year's greetings, nor would he be narcissistic enough to think that Mr. Huo had taken a fancy to her, a dirty peasant girl. The purpose of his visit made Anxiu somewhat puzzled.Do you also want to open a restaurant and poach the corner of Jinyutang?

Then why did shopkeeper Fu bring him here?The shopkeeper Zhao who came to Yunxuan is a drop in the bucket compared to the power of the Huo family. He can find Anxiu's house, let alone the Huo family?

I couldn't figure it out, so I had no choice but to stop thinking about it and lead them in warmly and hospitablely.

He Yuer moved out the wicker chair to bask He Youbao in the sun, while she sat beside him and pinched his legs, asking if it was comfortable or not?
In fact, it's not very comfortable. He Yu'er is young and doesn't have enough strength, so it's very itchy.But He Youbao was afraid of hurting He Yuer's heart, so he nodded and said it was very comfortable, and kept praising He Yuer's ability.

"Father, there are visitors!" An Xiu shouted before entering the door.

He Youbao hurriedly sat up and opened the door to greet him. He thought it was some relative who came.Shopkeeper Fu He Youbao recognized him, but Mr. Huo San had never seen him before, so he only greeted people he knew: "Treasurer Fu is here?"

He Yuer glanced at Huo San, her face suddenly changed color, she clenched her fingers and took a step back.Huo San looked at Anxiu's room, his eyes only stayed on He Yu'er for a moment before jumping over, he had no interest in the little girl who was only eight years old.

"Father, this is the third son of Youji Huo's family." Anxiu introduced them, "Third son, this is my father-in-law."

Third Young Master Huo had already found out the relationship between An Xiu and this family, he was not surprised, and greeted He Youbao politely.

"Oh, the third son is here?" He Youbao greeted with a smile, but he was surprised in his heart, what are these people doing here?He didn't know the Huo family's status in Youji, but he just felt that this young man was not suitable for coming to the small farm yard because of his bright clothes.Compared with him, the new clothes of Anxiu and others looked disheveled.

He Yuer's lips were pale.

"This is my sister-in-law, Yu'er." Anxiu noticed that He Yu'er didn't go crazy like usual, but stood quietly behind He Youbao without speaking, thinking that she was stage fright, and then laughed, "The child of Zhuangjiao has never seen the world, three The young master laughed."

"A very clever kid!" Mr. Huo San praised He Yu'er mechanically.Many children would be afraid when meeting strangers, so He Yuer's momentary gaffe didn't arouse anyone's suspicion.

Anxiu felt that he was not here as a guest, but to inspect the work.

Just after breakfast, Anxiu started to cook again, preparing lunch.It's like being a housewife. After breakfast and lunch, she can't leave the kitchen all day long, especially when guests come.

He Yuer and He Shusheng helped under the stove, and He Youbao sat with them.

"This house is not bad." Mr. Huo San praised sincerely, "From my point of view, Ms. An's house and courtyard are the best. I am so lucky to have such a daughter-in-law."

He Youbao just laughed, saying that his ancestors had accumulated virtue and it should be on him.

"Ms. An was raised by you, old man?" Mr. Huo San asked again, "Where did she come from?"

"I don't know. I picked her up on the road. At that time she was starving, so she stayed at my house." Although He Youbao was honest, he was not stupid.When Anxiu came, she was wearing a dragon robe!If someone was really looking for her, it would be a disaster, so he made up a lie.

Third Young Master Huo let out a sigh, and asked again: "The old man is kind-hearted, how can ordinary people pick up a stranger?"

He Youbao smiled and said nothing, but his heart was in a state of panic. It was very strange that Mr. Huo asked An Xiu what he was doing, as if he was here to inquire about her life experience.
