Chapter 046: Opening
In the two lives, He Peier has seen Xiaobao only a handful of times, and she can't recognize anyone again.
Xiaobao's face was abnormally flushed, because his face was too thin, his eyes were very large, and his body looked smaller than that of children of the same age.
He Peier's heart was sour, remembering that the child did not live past the age of five in her previous life, her heart was uncomfortable.
She regretted that she didn't buy some snacks or anything yesterday, and she couldn't make her cousin happy today, and she could see that Xiaobao also had some recognition of her, so she called her "cousin" under the guidance of her aunt. ”
"Auntie, is Xiaobao uncomfortable?" He Pei'er touched the boy's head lovingly, and stretched out her hands to him, "Xiaobao, my cousin will take you to see the big fat fish." ”
Xiaobao was originally a little reluctant, but when he heard that there was a fish to see, he hesitated and went to He Peier's arms.
"Xiaobao had a fever again two nights ago." Hu Cuiying sighed.
Hearing that she had a fever again, He Pei'er's heart trembled, and she said with some worry, "Last time, I heard you say that Xiaobao's health has improved a lot, why is he sick again." ”
Hu Cuiying shook her head, "I guess the hospital in the town is not good, I have to go to the city to have a look." ”
"Well, if the business in the town goes well in a few days, let the eldest cousin take Xiaobao to the city, these things will delay for a day, and the child will suffer one more day, it's not worth it."
"That's what I thought, too." Hu Cuiying said a few more words to the parents, and asked He Peier to take the child, and she continued to feed the pigs.
He Peier asked her to do whatever she wanted, and she took Xiaobao to watch the fish in the wooden basin.
The child just wanted to have fun watching the fish, Xiaobao wanted to reach out and touch it, He Peier thought that he was in a fever, so he didn't touch him, so he talked to him later and asked him where everyone in the house went. It is estimated that it hasn't been too long since my aunt's house finished eating, but there is no one at home.
Xiaobao was in bed all day, looking at He Pei'er and could only shake her head, until her aunt came out after she was busy, she knew that her sister-in-law and two cousins had gone to the field, and her cousin was washing clothes by the river.
He Peier saw that her aunt was already busy, leaving Xiaobao to take care of her, and she went to the river to find her cousin.
She didn't know why Sister Juan Zi didn't tell Zhu Xingping, but the marriage had to be withdrawn. And Sister Juan Zi has no feelings for that man, this matter is really blocked, it can only be a gift money, as long as it is not another problem, the money can be slowly solved.
The scorching sun was empty, and there was no one by the river at this time, He Peier saw her cousin washing clothes under the shade of a tree, took off the straw hat on her head and waved to her.
Although Xiao Xiaojuan couldn't see anything on the surface this day and night, she was very depressed in her heart, and now she saw He Pei'er and showed her a rare smile.
"Sister Juanzi, we said before that we would mention the divorce to my aunt when we came back, didn't you say anything?" There was no one nearby, He Pei sat under the shade of the tree, and asked her cousin directly, she was thinking about this matter when she was sleeping, and she was very anxious.
Speaking of divorce, Xiao Xiaojuan's eyes darkened, and she came out to wash the clothes in the bucket, and she didn't want to speak.
He Peier didn't urge her anymore, and also took the clothes out of the bucket to help wash them together.
"Sister Juanzi, if you are worried about the gift money, I also told you in the town before, let's figure out a way to deal with this matter together. Zhu Xingping is not a person you can trust for life, I am your cousin who doesn't want to see you jump into the fire pit, how can your mother and two brothers let you marry someone like that. As long as you open your mouth, the marriage can be withdrawn. ”
Xiao Xiaojuan didn't know these truths, but she couldn't bear it and didn't want to drag this family to be poor forever.
I comforted her, but my cousin still didn't say a word, He Peier was a little angry with her, and she also felt sorry for her.
"Sister Juanzi, if you keep talking like this, I'll tell my aunt in a while. I'm not going to watch you marry that violent drunken man, and this marriage must be withdrawn no matter what. ”
Seeing her cousin angry, Xiao Xiaojuan finally had a reaction, and reached out to hold her, "Pei'er, don't worry. I'll tell my mom when I'm done washing my clothes and going back. ”
This person finally figured it out, He Peier nodded, and helped her cousin wash the rest of the clothes together.
It only took ten minutes from the river to my aunt's house, and the two of them didn't talk much on the road, and when they returned to the yard, He Peier saw that her aunt was picking vegetables under the eaves with Xiaobao, so she took the bucket in her cousin's hand, and wanted to dry her clothes next to it, and pouted in the direction of her aunt.
Xiao Xiaojuan knew what her cousin meant, sighed secretly in her heart, and walked over silently. My cousin is watching here, and she can't say anything now.
Xiaobao likes her aunt very much, and before Xiao Xiaojuan arrived, she stretched out her hand to her and asked her aunt to hug her.
Xiao Xiaojuan was in a complicated mood and sat on a small chair with her little nephew in her arms.
Hu Cuiying was peeling beans under the eaves, and when she saw her daughter sitting here, her uncle and daughter were helping, and her brows frowned, "Xiaojuan, why do you let Pei'er work and hide by herself?" Quickly put Xiaobao down and go to Pei'er to come and sit. ”
"Mom, I have something to tell you." Xiao Xiaojuan didn't move, endured it and finally planned to speak.
"Ah, what's the matter?" Hu Cuiying glanced at her daughter unexpectedly, she didn't pay much attention to it before, but now she looked carefully, only to find that her daughter's calm eyes were a little blue, and her heart slowly rose, and her intuition told her that things were not small.
"Mom, can I withdraw from my marriage with Zhu Xingping?" Xiao Xiaojuan breathed a long sigh of relief, although she couldn't bear to drag down this family, but when she said it at this moment, her heart felt like a big stone had been unloaded.
"What's wrong?" The beans in Hu Cuiying's hand fell to the ground, she really didn't expect it to be this matter, obviously the two will get married next month. Although the daughter behaved plainly in this marriage, there was no objection, and the conditions of the Zhu family were indeed good, how could it be ...... now
Her mother's eyes were full of surprise, Xiao Xiaojuan suddenly couldn't say it anymore, she knew that her mother and brothers loved her and would not let her marry such a man, but at this moment she was a little skeptical that she would be too selfish to do this.
Mother and daughter looked at each other like this, one had difficulty speaking, and the other wanted to know the reason urgently. He Peier looked at the two of them and sighed, put down the empty bucket in his hand, and the man also came over.
"Aunt, I met Zhu Xingping with my cousin in the town the day before yesterday. He was drunk in the restaurant, yelling like a madman, and his mouth was not idle, saying that Sister Juanzi was not a good match with him, and looked down on the Xiao family even more......"
He Pei'er unhurriedly told what happened last time, at first she was shocked to see her aunt, and then when she said that she looked down on the Xiao family, her expression began to slowly calm down.
It seems that Zhu Xingping's man looks down on this family, and his aunt has lived for decades, and he can see it very clearly in his heart.
