Xu He pursed his lips, as if his whole body was burning hot, he nodded. Afterwards, he took off the bracelet on his wrist: "I can't take this back with me. Wearing this hair tie today has caused my second sister to complain. If I take it back, it will fall into my mother's hands."


    Zhang Fang Yuan held the bracelet: "But this is left by my mother to my wife, so you have to accept it anyway."

    "I have already accepted it today, so you keep it first, and give it to me later..."

    Zhang Fang Yuan was satisfied after hearing what he said. He carefully wrapped the bracelet in a handkerchief and took it back. Fortunately, the bracelet was not redeemed in vain: "Then I will give it to you when we get married."

The silence was restored again, walking slowly and aimlessly, the fragrance of the wild flowers in the evening wind seemed to be more intense.

    After a while, Xu He said in a low voice: "I can't go out for too long."

    Both of them were reluctant to part, but this small gathering was not a long-term solution, so they had to be patient, and there would be plenty of time to meet again.

    "Okay, I'll take you outside your house."

    Xu He refused, because there were many people outside today.

    "Then come to me if you have anything to do in the future. When you go to the city, wait for me to take my cart by the side of the road. Tell me what you want to buy. I will buy it for you. If anyone bullies you, come and tell me..." Zhang Fangyuan babbled a lot, and suddenly took Xu He's hand: "Did you hear that?"

    Xu He had gotten used to his sometimes silly and domineering appearance, and agreed, "I heard."

    Zhang Fangyuan, according to Xu He's intentions, he didn't send him too far. When he got out of Haitang Bay, he watched him walked towards his home, while he stood there for a long time, like a stone looking at his wife.

    Everyone was gone, he was still excited and couldn't help himself, suddenly jumped up high, presumably he was going to toss and turn in bed tonight and couldn't sleep all night.


    He circled around in place for a long time before he remembered that it was time to go back. Just as he was about to leave, intermittent voices came into his ears.

    "I'll kiss again, just once."

    "Didn't I already kiss you just now?"


    "But I still want to kiss..."

    Zhang Fangyuan stood in the dark and looked at the two people, one tall and one short, who were hugging and twisting together not far away.

    "..."

    Can it still be like this?

    The smirk on Zhang Fangyuan's face faded away, feeling rather unlucky, he coughed in embarrassment, and made a walking sounds with strides, scaring a pair of little mandarin ducks who were entangled together in the distance to leave immediately.

    Xu He looked for the ducks before returning home, and hurried back. His mind was wandering, and he was clearly in a mess. It seemed that the chaos had reached to the extreme.

    After a long time, when he saw the very bright lights in his house, he felt nervous in his heart. He was afraid that his mother had just returned home, and the second sister would complain about what happened today.


    Xu He walked to his courtyard absent-mindedly, and suddenly felt that something was wrong at home, as if he was too restless, he hurriedly opened the courtyard door and went in, and then locked the latch behind his back, lest the ducks would run out again.

    Hearing a voice in the room, his mother yelled: " He ge’er, boil the water quickly! Your father hurt his leg!"

    Suddenly hearing the bad news, Xu He hurriedly dropped the bamboo pole he used to drive the ducks, and rushed in with a brisk stride.

    Xu Changren, who had been out for more than half a month, had messy hair. He was lying on the wooden plank in the middle hall, his bare foot was swollen, and there was a lot of blood on the floor of the room. Perhaps it was due to excessive blood loss. Xu Changren's face was ashen, and his lips turned white.

    Liu Xianglan kept bandaged Xu Changren's wound with a clean cotton cloth.

    "What's going on here!?"

    Xu He hurried forward to help, only then did he know that his father was helping a landlord in another village to build a house and fell from the height. The landlord didn't invite doctor for him either, he paid his wages hastily, and only asked two men to bring his father back, and blamed him for his bad work.

    Now Xu Shaochun had gone to ask for a doctor. There was only one doctor in this village, and his medical skills were very average. He could only cure a little wind and cold on weekdays, but he may not be able to cure his father.

    Xu He tried his best not to lose his footing, and went to the stove to boil hot water.

    Not long after, there was movement in the yard again, Xu Shaochun shouted from the outside: The doctor is here!

    Looking at Xu Changren in the middle hall, the doctor shook his head, seeing the severity of the injury, he was afraid that if he didn't treat it properly, it would cause trouble to his upper body.

    "His muscles and bones were hurt, and you have to go to the city to ask for a doctor."

    "But it's so late, how can we go to the city, even if I go with bullock cart, there is no such thing at all!” Liu Xianglan cried while covering her face.

    The doctor said: "There is always someone in the village, go borrow it. This old man really can't do anything, if I don't handle it well, his leg will be crippled. This old man can't do it rashly, I can only stop the bleeding."

    Liu Xianglan and Xu Shaochun cried together, wanted to beg the doctor, but he had already made it very clear.

    "Zhang Fangyuan has a horse, which is faster than an bullock cart."

    Hearing this, Liu Xianglan stopped crying, and looked back at Xu He with a cold face: "But how can he borrow us his horse?"

    After speaking, Liu Xianglan subconsciously set her sights on Xu Shaochun, thinking that the boy had been worried about her daughter before, if she let his daughter come forward to say something nice, he might still have some hope: "Shaochun, your father is like this, how about..."

    Xu Shaochun thought of Zhang Fangyuan's fierce and unscrupulous appearance, subconsciously shrank her head back, bit her lower lip and didn’t answer.

    Although Xu He knew that Zhang Fangyuan wouldn’t necessarily agree even if Xu Shaochun came to visit, but seeing his second sister still acted coy at this time, he felt annoyed: "I'll go."

    Liu Xianglan didn't stop him, but Xu Shaochun looked at the person who left and chased him out: "He ge’er, please don't promise him anything."

    Xu He raised his eyelids: You think well.
