Traveling: Village Girl Plays "Staying" Husband

Chapter 21

Three days later, in the early morning, Xiao Zhengxuan picked up a load of firewood and put it on the street for sale. A middle-aged woman was chatting with another woman: "Sister-in-law of the Zhu family, I heard that the Wang family next door to yours went to the Lin family to propose marriage yesterday?"

The person called Sister-in-law Zhu chuckled: "Sister Chen, have you heard about this? Yes, the Wang family and the Lin family can really do it too! They just resigned their eldest daughter's marriage, and then happily let her go. He came to order his little daughter, does this make people live?"

The young lady of the Wang family sighed: "This eldest daughter of the Lin family is also a poor girl. She lost her mother since she was a child, so she also lost her father? Doesn't it mean that a mother who is willing to beg for food is unwilling to be with a father who is an official? That's the reason. !"

The sister-in-law of the Zhu family echoed repeatedly: "Poor eldest daughter of the Lin family, she almost died last time. If it wasn't for the brother of the Lin family who gave up the family property and asked the Lin family to bring money to ask the eminent monk to save her, she would have been beaten to the bone. The drum is ringing! If news of yesterday's incident reaches her ears, she doesn't know what will happen!"

Aunt Chen said sympathetically, "Don't let this kind of thing happen to a little girl like her, even if it happened to an adult, she wouldn't be able to get through it! What a poor child."

Xiao Zhengxuan felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. Hearing that the prince of the Wang family was engaged again, he felt relieved, but when he heard that it was Lin Yu's younger sister, the anger in his heart rushed into his brain instantly. Clenching both hands, the shoulder pole in my hand snapped with a snap!
I'm really in no mood to sell firewood!Xiao Zhengxuan saw the first person who came to buy firewood and didn't return the price, so he took the copper money and walked back, and arrived at Lin Yu's shed in a daze.

At this time, the shed was very lively, and the uncles and ladies nearby were all around her stall ordering snacks for the grandson, only to hear Uncle Zhang say: "Little girl, bring me two skewers of stinky tofu and a bowl of soy milk."

"Good job! Uncle, you should drink a bowl of herbal tea after eating this!"

"Okay, you don't need to say, sir, I drank your herbal tea, and found that I don't have to get up to drink water in the middle of the night, and I don't have the dry mouth in the middle of the night anymore!"

Uncle Sun, who was knocking on the chimney, also smiled and said: "Old Zhang, you are right. I drank this little girl's free herbal tea, and I am like you. I rarely get up in the middle of the night! This herbal tea not only works , quite delicious."

Grandma Qian, who was about to feed her grandson tofu, said, "Oh, sister Yu, does your herbal tea have this benefit?"

Lin Yu laughed and said, "Grandma Qian, it's all the old man's praise! I just put some cold herbs and some licorice and boiled it. How can the old man say it's delicious!"

Uncle Sun immediately corrected: "Little girl, I don't lie about your uncle. The uncle went home according to the method you said and asked the old woman to cook and drink it, but it didn't taste like you! It's just that my family can't eat tofu every day, so I think , can you sell this herbal tea to us cheaper?"

Uncle Zhang also agreed and said: "Yes, yes, little girl, from now on, you cook more every day, we old men and old women will come to you to drink a bowl, and save ourselves from tossing."

Lin Yu said sweetly, "Okay, sir, it's fine if you say so. Otherwise, when you're not selling tofu, how about drinking a big bowl for a lot of money every day?"

"A lot of money for a bowl, little girl, isn't your cost enough?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "The herbs are collected in the back mountain, and the licorice is not worth much. If not, you can drink two bowls for three dollars!"

"Okay, just drink two bowls for three dollars. In this hot weather, you have to drink at least two bowls at a time to quench your thirst!"

"Go on, little girl, I want two bowls of these three big coins today, one bowl for you, Uncle Sun, and another bowl for me!" Uncle Zhang took the chimney from Uncle Sun's hand and smoked two more, his throat was a little dry again!
It wasn't until the crowd dispersed that Xiao Zhengxuan went to Lin Yupen and sat down and said, "Two bowls of herbal tea!"

Lin Yu said in surprise: "Hey, it's new today, you idiot said four words! Nuo, you don't need money for your drink, and you didn't find you for the money you gave me last time. Wait a minute, I'll go in." Take the money and come out to find you."

Xiao Zhengxuan said coldly: "No need to look for it! It's for you."

Lin Yu looked at him with wide eyes in surprise and said, "For me? What do you want me to do with your money?"

Xiao Zhengxuan still said blankly: "Add a dowry!"

Lin Yu looked suspiciously at the expressionless Xiao Zhengxuan, why is this idiot getting weirder and weirder?Could it be that she was divorced, making even an idiot look down on her?Yes, it must be like this, this idiot must be chivalrous, it's no wonder that my little sister is underestimated!
"Hey, idiot, didn't you sympathize with me when you saw that I had no money and was divorced? Oh my god, I'm living too pitifully, right? It's shocking to make you feel sympathetic even for an idiot Ghost! Idiot, you don’t have to sympathize with me. I, Lin Yu, don’t want to marry someone like the Wang family! If I marry him, Wang Qing, I’d rather marry you, an idiot!” Momentarily enraged, Lin Yu became speechless. blocked!

Marry you idiot!ah?marry me?Xiao Zhengxuan was stunned now!Who else would marry me with my appearance?He glanced at Lin Yu suspiciously, but Lin Yu, who was venting his anger at this time, didn't notice Xiao Zhengxuan's strangeness at all!
"Heck, idiot, I'm starting to talk nonsense! You idiot, do you know what it means to marry a daughter-in-law? It seems that I have been with you for a long time, and I have become inexplicably dumb! Come on, drink, Yin Zi You'd better take it back, lest your mother scold you, and you are such a pitiful person." Lin Yu put a large bowl of herbal tea in front of him, and gave him two pumpkin pies, also wrapped two He took it back.

Xiao Zhengxuan was immersed in Lin Yu's bold words. He said that he would marry him at one moment, and at the other said that he didn't know what it meant to marry a daughter-in-law.
Isn't she talking nonsense?He already has a daughter, how could he not know what it means to marry a wife?It seems that this is really a child, speaking out loud!

They say he is an idiot all the time, and one day he will let her know whether he is an idiot or not, and whether he knows how to marry a wife!Xiao Zhengxuan thought angrily in his heart, as for why he was angry, he hadn't thought about it yet.

Xiao Zhengxuan sat at the table silently drinking herbal tea and eating pumpkin cakes. He didn't want to leave so soon today because he thought that Lin Yu didn't know about the marriage between the Wang family and the Lin family. Can't stand it.

The third sister-in-law Xiao went out of the yard and looked at Xiao Zhengxuan sitting by the Lin's shed from a distance, she cried out in a fuss: "Mother, come and take a look, you also said that the second brother went to sell firewood, so he is hiding in this shed I'm stealing food and hiding from laziness!"

Mrs. Xiao Li was getting angry at Ran'er, who was all dirty, and immediately ran out when she heard the third daughter-in-law's fuss. Seeing that Xiao Zhengxuan was really sitting in the shed drinking tea, she stabbed a hornet's nest: "God You killed your second child, your old mother is still here desperately raising your children, you are fine, stop doing business and sit here drinking tea and eating! You black hearted and heartless guy, you eat When you get greasy, you also think that your old lady is still eating vegetable roots!"

The third sister-in-law Xiao followed Xiao Li to the Lin family's shed, and when she saw a half-bitten pumpkin pie in front of Xiao Zhengxuan, she exclaimed: "Mother, look at the second brother, although the Lin family's pumpkin pie is delicious, But you need two copper coins for each, I think the second brother can eat more than one!"

Mrs. Xiao Li immediately began to curse again: "I knew that you are a bad guy, God has confiscated you after you have been outside for so many years? Leave you, a heartless guy, secretly hiding here to eat Alright! Are you not afraid of lightning strikes?"

Lin Yu really admired this woman from the Xiao family, her singing and every sentence touched her heart!Looking at Xiao Zhengxuan's dumbfounded face, Lin Yu said to himself, "Idiot, it's good that you are dumb, otherwise you would have suffered a lot!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xiao Li was still swearing, Lin Yu stepped forward and took her hand and said, "Ma'am, you haven't tasted the pumpkin pancakes I made, have you? Why don't you sit down and have a taste? Just now I saw Brother Erduan Watching others eat pumpkin pie, he seemed very hungry. It was his first time here, so I invited him to eat one. Anyone who comes to my place knows that in the first half month of opening, anyone who comes here for the first time can enjoy it. Try it for free. How about you and the third sister-in-law sit down and have a taste?"

As soon as she heard that there was food and no money, Mrs. Xiao immediately greeted them with a smile: "Okay, okay, the sister of the Lin family is really ingenious, and she has already smelled the aroma of your food, but you are too many people, so I don't have the nerve to come and join in the fun I'm busy with you."

Lin Yu smiled and asked the two to sit down and said, "Sister-in-law, you've made Lin Yu shy! I'm a girl, and I was originally embarrassed to show my face, but you know that I have been ill for so long. All the money my brother earns is spent on me. If he doesn’t get better, I want to help him. The people on this street are all uncles, uncles, and aunts whom I have known since childhood. I didn't take these face matters into consideration!"

After Lin Yu talked a lot, Aunt Xiao didn't have time to scold her son anymore, Lin Yu secretly gave him a wink, Xiao Zhengxuan had no choice but to get up secretly and leave.

Xiao Li ate a cake and drank a bowl of herbal tea and asked, "Sister Yu, how do you count your cake and tea?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "I said today that I'm asking my aunt and sister-in-law to taste the taste, and I definitely can't charge money. Usually, the big cake costs two coins, and the tea costs two bowls, so you only earn two pocket money!"

Mrs. Xiao Li snorted: "You can earn money. Is this herbal tea made from herbs on the mountain? It can be boiled in a large bucket, and a large bucket can be sold for twenty or thirty dollars. At least two handfuls of silver a month, right?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Ma'am, I haven't opened this place for a month, so I don't know how much I can earn. Besides, my uncle and aunt who bought two tofu came here, and I gave them a bowl, no money. .”

Mrs. Xiao San looked at her unexpectedly and said, "You are really generous! Two pieces of tofu will give you a bowl? Isn't that a waste of money?"

Lin Yu chuckled: "Sister-in-law, isn't that what my aunt said? Is this all made of a lot of herbal tea on the mountain? Anyway, it doesn't cost much. At worst, let my brother accompany you to climb two more times. That’s all for the mountain! Auntie, third sister-in-law, would you like another bowl?”

Mrs. Xiao Li looked at Lin Yu strangely and said, "No need, I have to go home and work. There are a lot of things in the family, they are a group of people who only eat and don't work! If everyone in the family For a family as diligent as Sister Yu, my family has already made a fortune!"

After saying that, she got up and left without saying thank you, Xiao Sansao said with a smile, "Thank you!"

Lin Yu shook his head again at the Xiao family aunt. It would be a tragedy to have such a mother-in-law!She thought unkindly: "Ms. Xiao walked so fast, I'm afraid I really let her drink the second bowl and charge her money?"

Poor things in the world, how can anyone predict them?
