At dusk, it is the time to return, the smoke curls from the cooking in every house, and the thick aroma of rice wafts everywhere in the village.
Tang Yao hugged her younger brother and followed Han Yue obediently, she looked at the village in front of her from time to time, her big bright eyes were full of envy and longing.
"Marquis of the Han family, is this your Zhuangzi? What a rich place, every family lives in a new tile house! Tang Yao admired from the bottom of her heart, she stretched out her hand and gently stroked the courtyard of a house, feeling the new and tamped soil on the wall, and there was an indescribable envy in her heart.
Han Yue smiled and said with some pride: "How is it, this Zhuangzi is good." ”
"It's not bad, I see that all the houses in the village seem to have been newly built not long ago, could it be that this is what you said earlier about running Zhuangzi?"
"Sort of!" Han Yue nodded, and continued, "! Originally, there were only a few dozen families in Tianjiazhuang, all of which lived in dilapidated houses, leaking rain in summer and wind in winter, and the life of the people in the village was miserable. He glanced at Tang Yao when he said this, and said with a smile: "Do you know, this was once a well-known muddy village, because everyone was too poor, the people in the village couldn't even marry a daughter-in-law, at that time there were only about 100 people in the village, but there were more than 20 singles and idlers." On weekdays, when a woman passes by the village, everyone's eyes shine like a wolf. If I run into a beautiful woman like you, I might be dragged to my house in a big way......"
"Huh?" Tang Yao screamed shallowly, although she knew that Han Yue might just scare herself, but she still couldn't help the rabbit in her heart, she smiled reluctantly, and said: "Master Hou, you just like to talk back, the people of the Tang Dynasty are honest and simple, and it will be as unbearable as you said." Although he said this, his body unconsciously leaned next to Han Yue,
"Hey, hey? Not convinced? Han Yue laughed evilly, and his eyebrows fluttered: "I'm really not scaring you, if a man is suffocated by a woman, he can really do anything." ”
He paused when he said this, and suddenly stretched out his hand to point to the house where Tang Yao had touched the courtyard wall just now, and continued: "For example, this family is a well-known scoundrel, such as stealing chickens and dogs, gambling money to visit kilns, and peeking at women bathing, he has done all these things. ”
Tang Yao let out an 'ah' again, thinking that he was still touching the courtyard wall with envy, but he didn't know that it was such a person, and he suddenly felt worried in his heart.
"You don't have to be afraid!" Han Yue felt that the prank was almost over, so he smiled and said: "What I said is all in the past, the so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, the poor ** plan to get rich and increase their conscience, and the men in the village are used to being poor, so they act like that." Now it's different, our Tianjiazhuang has long been famous in the vicinity, and there are little girls in every village who are looking forward to marrying here, and it's too late for the singles in the village to choose, who will pull you to the disaster? If that really happens, Lao Tzu will discount his leg first......"
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard the gate of the courtyard next to them creak, and a young man pushed the door out, just in front of the two of them.
"Ouch, it's my cousin-in-law! You've just come back? "This young man is the scoundrel that Han Yue just said, his name is Tian Ergou, he has been arranged by Han Yue to do things recently, because he has made a lot of money by selling Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, so his whole popularity is very good.
Han Yue disliked him for being even more oily than himself, and snorted with a big thorn in his nose as a promise, but Tian Ergou didn't care, and greeted him with a scornful face and smiled: "Brother-in-law is tired, you won't come back until it's almost dark this day, why don't you come to my house to eat first?" Seeing that Han Yue did not explicitly object to calling himself his cousin-in-law, he even removed the word 'Tang' when he spoke again.
"Come on, I just stewed a pot of dog meat, and I'm about to go out to drink, how about a good drink with my brother-in-law tonight?"
"No need!" Han Yue waved his hand and said lightly: "I guess Doudou is also worried about going out for a day, I have to go back quickly, lest the little girl be cranky again." ”
"Tsk, brother-in-law is admirable for this, my sister-in-law can marry you, she really enjoys eight lifetimes of happiness......" Tian Ergou praised exaggeratedly, his face full of flattering smiles.
"Alright, alright!" Han Yue waved his hand vigorously, and said impatiently: "They are all villagers who don't know whom, and if you dare to come with me in this set, be careful of the big-eared scraper and whip you." ”
"That's that, brother-in-law, a young wizard, looking... That, his eyes are like fire......" Tian Ergou was a little embarrassed on his face, but he still rubbed his hands and asked again: "Really don't you want to eat at home?" Dog meat is delicious! ”
"You do things well, it's better than inviting me to eat ten meals!" Han Yue also knew that Tian Ergou had no bad intentions, he refused with a faint smile, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "You haven't been gambling recently, have you?" ”
"Where?" Tian Ergou was taken aback, he was now following Han Yue to mess around, he was most afraid of being misunderstood by Han Yue, so he hurriedly swore and cursed: "Since you arranged things for me to do, I have long since quit gambling, I don't believe you go home and ask my cousin, if you hear the rumors from her that I still gamble money, I will chop my hand." ”
"It's good not to gamble!" Han Yue nodded, suddenly smiled, and quipped, "What about the kiln?" Have you ever been. ”
"Uh......" Tian Ergou choked suddenly, he wanted to say no, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to deceive Han Yue, he stood there in embarrassment, and it took a long time before he said: "Brother-in-law, you also know, I am almost thirty years old this year, and there has never been a warm quilt at home!" Men, after holding back for a long time, they always inevitably think about women......"
"You unproductive goods!" Han Yue scolded with a smile, raised his foot and kicked him lightly, and said, "If you want a woman, you should marry a woman, you should have saved a lot of money now, go to the matchmaker tomorrow to tell you, and then dare to go to the kiln to be careful that I break your legs." ”
"That's that, I won't dare in the future!" Tian Ergou nodded, but his eyes unconsciously skimmed Tang Yao, and said cautiously: "Brother-in-law, are you bringing back another one?" He didn't have any bad intentions, but because Han Yue had one more Luo Jing'er in the family, and now he has brought back another one, but the two girls are both beautiful and beautiful, and he is worried that his cousin's status is not guaranteed, so he asked.
Han Yue didn't know about his little flowery intestines, raised his foot and kicked it again, and scolded with a smile: "It's not as dirty as you think, this girl is a poor person who has escaped from the famine, I see that she is hungry and thin and has children, so I plan to take her home to get some food, and let her have a place to live at night." ”
"It turned out to be an escape!" Tian Ergou suddenly let out a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and stretched out his thumb to praise: "Brother-in-law is kind-hearted." ”
"Buy your wine! The store will close if it's too late......" Han Yue waved his hand, Tian Ergou hurriedly agreed, and bowed to him and Tang Yao, and went away.
Tang Yao had been silently watching, and she didn't speak softly until Tian Ergou's figure disappeared, and said, "Master Hou, is this young man the leper you are talking about?" I think he's a little slippery, but he also knows how to be polite. It doesn't seem as bad as you described! ”
"I used to be poor!" Han Yue sighed, he saw that the sky was getting dark, and he was anxious that Xiao Doudou was alone at home, so he hurriedly strode forward, and said, "If you have something to say, let's go home and talk about it, my daughter-in-law is probably in a hurry at home." ”
"Hmm!" Tang Yao obediently agreed, hugged his younger brother and quickly followed Han Yue. In the hazy night, no one noticed that there was a different kind of sparkle in her bright eyes. "To be able to marry such an approachable Hou Ye, his daughter-in-law is really happy!"
Women's feelings are always poetry, Tang Yao looked at Han Yue's not burly body, for some reason, she suddenly felt a little hot on her face.
The cool breeze of the summer night was slightly cool, blowing her long hair.
