"Mother, what's wrong? When you look at me like this, I panic...... Something happened when you were selling chestnuts, right? Jiang Wan really couldn't stand this weird atmosphere, so she hurriedly asked.

Xu Fenggu said: "The chestnuts are all sold, this is the silver that was sold." As she spoke, she took out more than two taels of broken silver and showed it to Jiang Wan.

Seeing so much silver, Jiang Wan's eyes lit up, but since the chestnuts were sold, why did his father and younger brother have the same expression?

Xu Fenggu looked at Jiang Wan's anxious appearance, and finally sighed and said, "Wanwan, in the future...... Don't go see Mr. Pei again. ”

“…… Mother? Jiang Wan was shocked and pretended to be puzzled, "Mother, what are you talking about?" ”

Xu Fenggu stepped forward and held Jiang Wan's hand, her eyes were pityful: "Wanwan, just ...... Sister Chunying deliberately stopped me and your father and told me about how often you have been looking for Mr. Pei recently. She...... She told you not to go to him again. ”

Jiang Wan stood there stiffly, and suddenly remembered that when she went home before, she saw Pei You's mother sitting at the door of his house, it turned out that she was sitting there on purpose, just to stop her father and mother from complaining!

But how did Pei You's mother know that she often went to Pei You? When she went to look for him, she always tried to avoid other people, not even her own family. Did Pei You tell his mother about it?

"Mother, I'm ...... I just asked Mr. Pei to recognize some words. Jiang Wan naturally couldn't say that she was going to hook up with Pei You, so she had to make an excuse on the surface.

Xu Fenggu shook her head and sighed: "Wanwan, you haven't been to school before, how easy is it to know how to read?" also delayed Mr. Pei's study. Her eyes were gentle, but she seemed to see through Jiang Wan's plan at a glance.

Jiang Wan lowered her head, not knowing what to do for a while.

She had been hiding it from her family before, just because she was afraid that there would be this scene, but she didn't expect this moment to come so quickly, and she had to be stopped before she hooked up with Pei You's career. The people who stopped it were not only her family, but also Pei You's mother. Pei Youniang has seen her so many times, and every time she feels panicked, parents who generally have high hopes for their children are so strict and impersonal, right?

"Wanwan, I'm begging you, don't think about Mr. Pei anymore, okay?" Xu Fenggu's eyes turned red again as she spoke. She remembered crying in front of her daughter once before, and she thought that Wanwan would not think about Mr. Pei anymore after that, but she didn't expect that she had been secretly dating Mr. Pei. In the past few years, the neighbor, she knows Sister Chunying's temperament too well, she will never agree to let Wanwan marry Mr. Pei, no matter how much effort Wanwan puts on him, it is useless, and she can only hurt herself in the end. She really can't bear to see her daughter hurt again, so it's better to break it off as soon as possible!

"Mother, mother, don't cry...... You cry so much that I want to cry too. Jiang Wan hurriedly persuaded. Don't think about Pei You anymore, don't hook up with him again? She seemed a little reluctant...... Pei You is so cute, she feels empty in her heart at the thought of not being able to make him blush and embarrassed anymore.

Last time, Jiang Wan and Xu Fenggu cried together, but in fact, Jiang Wan did not make any promise not to think about Pei You anymore, this time Xu Fenggu insisted: "Wanwan, you promise your mother, don't think about Mr. Pei anymore!" ”

"Mother......" Jiang Wan opened her mouth, but she couldn't say her promise to never hook up with Pei You again.

"Wanwan, mother please!" Xu Fenggu cried bitterly, "Do you still want your mother to kneel down and beg you?" ”

Jiang Funian said in a deep voice on the side: "Wanwan, listen to your mother's words." ”

Jiang Gu wanted to say something, but he was young, and he didn't know what to say about this kind of thing, so he closed his mouth and looked at this and that with worry.

"Mother, don't be like this, I'm ...... I promise......" Jiang Wan couldn't help but redden, her father and mother had begged her like this, what else could she do? "Mother, I ...... answer"

There was a sudden gentle knock on the courtyard door, and Jiang Wan looked back, thinking about her interrupted promise, and felt a little relieved.

A nice voice came from outside the door: "Uncle Jiang, I'm Pei You." ”

Several people in the courtyard glanced at each other, Xu Fenggu hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face, and Jiang Funian ran to open the door.

Standing outside the door was Pei You, who looked unswerving.

After lunch today, Pei You's mother asked Pei Yulian to call him to the house.

Xu Chunying rarely had a smile on her face, but now she had a straight face, and when she heard Pei You's voice coming in, she suddenly scolded: "Kneel!" ”

Pei You was stunned for a moment, but he still knelt on his knees obediently, quietly waiting for his mother's instructions.

Xu Chunying said: "You'er, do you know what's wrong? ”

Pei You's face was confused: "Mother, the child doesn't know ......"

The crutches in Xu Chunying's hand slammed the ground, making a crisp sound, clearly showing her annoyance.

"You unfilial son! What did my mother tell you? If you don't study well, you still hook up with people who don't know how to do it, how can you be worthy of your dead father? Did you read all those books in the dog's belly? ”

"Mother, I really don't know what you're talking about...... Pei You said hurriedly.

"Do you really not know or do you not know? It's been spread all over the village, and you're even deaf when you are a mother?! Xu Chunying said angrily, "The person who came to you yesterday was not Jiang Wan?" You still lie to me and say that there is no one! ”

Yesterday she noticed that someone was there, but Yu'er said that there was no one, so she didn't say anything. Early this morning, Dafu Niang in the village sent Dafu to school, and chatted with her a few more words by the way, and only after this chat did she understand what You'er was hiding.

"Mother......" Pei You was taken aback, and the shame of being exposed to the lie surged into his heart in an instant, and then he understood the intention of his mother's series of words, and hurriedly explained, "Mother, I am a gentleman's friend with Miss Jiang, not as ...... as you think."

"A man and a woman have a fart gentleman's friend!" Xu Chunying interrupted him viciously, "My mother is a woman, my mother doesn't know what the little widow is thinking?" You only read the books of the sages, how do you know how filthy her mind is! My mother has never given you a kiss, just counting on you to choose the right family for you after high school. It's good that you're not good at studying, but you're hooking up with a widow! ”

"Mother, Miss Jiang and I are really not what you said...... She, she came to me because she wanted to read and write, and she was very polite when she looked for me, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. Pei You hurriedly explained, saying these words, he suddenly remembered that Jiang Wan had written a script that was handed over to him to transcribe, he had read it and transcribed a lot, just like what was said in the book, it was clear that she was a kind and polite person, but there were always rumors that slandered her......

"She is a widow, what words do she want to recognize? That's just an excuse for her to approach you on purpose! Xu Chunying hated her teeth so much that she spoke loudly.

Pei You lowered his head and did not speak.

Xu Chunying gasped, and it took a long time to breathe, and she slowed down her tone and said, "You'er, my mother knows that you are old and want to start a family, but you must not marry Jiang Wan." Not to mention that she is just an ordinary village woman, it is her Kefu life, and her mother will not agree to let her marry into our family even if she dies. My mother only has one son, and she is still counting on you in high school, you put your mind on the love of your children, where do you get the heart to study? Spring is approaching, but more than half a year of effort, you concentrate on studying, waiting for you to high school, and there are girls from good families to let you choose as much as you like. ”

Seeing that his mother's attitude eased a lot, Pei You hurriedly said: "Mother, please listen to what the child says, between the child and Jiang Wan, it is really not what you think." ”

Xu Chunying knew her son's personality, and she was so angry just now because of her anger after the shock, but she calmed down a little at the moment, and persuaded in a soft tone: "You'er, my mother believes in you, you have read sage books since you were a child, and your understanding is high, if it weren't for your mother, you would have gone to high school earlier." Ke You'er, you don't have a heart for Jiang Wan, but she doesn't necessarily have a heart for you. When Dafu Niang took Dafu back to eat, she told me that her chicken was stolen by Xu Tucai next door today, and it was Jiang Wan who testified that her chicken was taken away by a weasel to persuade Li Zheng to believe Xu Tucai's words. Think about it, what kind of person is Xu Tucai, so Jiang Wan helps him speak with a clear conscience, how good can it be? I'm afraid that these two have hooked up a long time ago, but you are kept in the dark and don't know anything! ”

Pei You didn't know about this, he had never liked to participate in the gossip of the villagers, and besides, it was impossible for him to know what happened just before noon. Hearing his mother's words, his face turned slightly pale, but Jiang Wan's various expressions flashed in his mind, and a voice in his heart shouted, No, Miss Jiang Wan, she is not that kind of person......

But he can't say it, as the so-called knowing people knows faces but doesn't know their hearts, what kind of person is she, and how much can he know? The rumors can't be believed, and the feelings of his brief contact can't seem to be too believable.

Xu Chunying continued: "You'er, my mother knows that you never think too badly of people's hearts, it's just that your mother has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice, and you can't see through it, but your mother has already seen through it." You don't have any thoughts about Jiang Wan, and you are still fighting against your mother for her......"

"Mother......" Pei You looked guilty.

Xu Chunying raised her hand: "Don't talk first, my mother doesn't blame you, you listen to my mother." ”

"Yes, you say, boy, listen." Pei You nodded.

Xu Chunying said: "Jiang Wan has promised two families before and after, and with one more Xu Da Niu, I'm afraid it's almost done." Her methods, which ones can you see through as a stunned young man? You say she's very polite, and that's where her cleverness lies. She is called wanting to indulge, deliberately seducing you not to say anything, and making you think that she is polite and asks you to speak for her. Think about it, we have been neighbors for four years, why did she never think of being literate in the past, and waited until the matter with Xu Daniu was blown before she came to you? She's gone to find her next home! ”

Pei You has always listened to Xu Chunying's words, but now when he heard her say this, his heart couldn't help but be shaken. He remembered the vague physical contact, and remembered her delicate expression, which seemed to hide a thousand words...... always made him uneasy, and this qiē had never been seen in the past, and it did start after Xu Daniu's incident.

Xu Chunying sighed: "You'er, I'm your mother, anyone can harm you, only my mother won't." Dafu Niang also said that Yingzi Niang said a lot of good things for Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan also spent a lot of effort in Yingzi Niang, I am afraid that it is for Yingzi. She is a husband and wife, and it is not easy to marry again, so she naturally thinks more and finds more ways to retreat. There is Xu Da Niu in front, and now it is a you, a Yingzi, and no matter how bad it is, there is also a Xu Tucai...... Think about it, how can you see through her methods? ”

Pei You was like being struck by lightning and didn't speak.

He suddenly remembered the book sent by Jiang Wan, where it was the story of the widow and the scholar, before he wondered if she was hinting at something, he was almost fascinated by it, and his mind was full of her...... Now that he was awakened by his mother's words, he finally understood that she was doing this on purpose. The qiē she did was all to seduce him...... Not only did she seduce him, but she also wanted to find a way out, and at the same time she seduced others......

"Mother...... The child knew he was wrong. Pei You said in a deep voice, "It's because the child is too young and doesn't know people clearly, and the child ...... I won't be in contact with her again. ”

"You'er, good boy." Xu Chunying said with relief, "Get up quickly, it's cold on the ground, don't freeze." ”

"Yes...... Mother. Pei You got up silently.

After finishing at the private school, Pei You went back to the room and took the leaves sent by Jiang Wan, as well as a few pieces of paper that he had already transcribed, and came to Jiang Wan's house.

Jiang Wan looked at Pei You, he lowered his gaze and said politely to Jiang Funian: "Uncle Jiang, I'll return the things." ”

He handed over the things in his hand, Jiang Funian felt inexplicable, but Jiang Wan saw clearly what they were.

She bit her lower lip and walked over suddenly, Xu Fenggu didn't stop her, and hurriedly followed.

Seeing Jiang Wan coming, Pei You's eyes lifted slightly, then quickly drooped, and turned his head to leave.

Jiang Wan said loudly: "Mr. Pei, you originally said to help me transcribe the script, but it still counts?" ”

Pei You's footsteps paused, he returned all the things, the meaning was already clear, but he didn't expect her to ask. He had already promised his mother, but she was forced to ask like this, and when he thought of Junzi Yinuo, her mind was not pure, but he couldn't keep his promises, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but say: "...... If you count, let Jiang Gu send it over in the future. He thought, just don't meet her.

Jiang Wan suddenly laughed, took her own things from Jiang Funian's hand, and said politely: "Thank you Mr. Pei, I think, I still don't bother Mr. Pei." I don't know how much the used paper and ink cost? I'm afraid that what I gave before is not enough, Mr. Pei, please say it directly. She paused, still holding back a smile on her face, "After all, if you want to break it, you always have to pay for it." ”

Pei You couldn't help but look up after all, the moment the two looked at each other, he saw that her still red eyes seemed to contain reluctance and sadness, he was stunned, and when he wanted to look again, her slightly narrowed eyes blocked it.

"Enough...... And more. Pei You found his voice back, took out two pennies and handed them over.

Jiang Wan smiled, not polite, spread her hands in front of him, and did not move, waiting for him to put the money down.

Pei You pinched the two copper coins, put them down after a few inches, and the two copper coins fell into Jiang Wan's slightly red and swollen palm. He was a little stunned, the palm of her palm seemed to be bruised, when did it hurt? And how did it hurt?

"Thank you, Mr. Pei, please go back if Mr. Pei is fine." Jiang Wan put away her palm, and her voice also pulled back Pei You's somewhat divergent thoughts.

He was suddenly startled, a little annoyed why he still cared about her, nodded when he heard this, didn't say anything, and turned around and left the Jiang family.

Jiang Wan took the two pennies, which seemed to have Pei You's body temperature on it, she pulled the corners of her mouth, put on a smile, and turned to look at her father: "Dad, mother, can you rest assured now?" ”

Jiang Funian sighed, Jiang Gu pouted, looking sad, Xu Fenggu felt a pain in her heart, and couldn't help but hug Jiang Wan and cry.

On the contrary, it was Jiang Wan, who patted Xu Fenggu lightly and soothed: "Mother, why are you crying now?" Don't worry, I won't think about Mr. Pei again in the future. ”

She saw it all just now, Pei You looked at her like a poisonous snake and beast, all the efforts of the past so many days were in vain, and she returned to the pre-liberation period overnight. His mother's words are more useful than what she does, what else does she hook up with.
