The peasant boy of crossing

Wu Su was also lively and smiling when he was a child, with curved eyebrows, red lips and white teeth. Anyone who saw him would go up and rub his small round face.

It may be that he was shadowed by enthusiastic people when he was young. When he grew up, Wu Su became more serious and serious, dignified and dignified, and he was [-]% like his father.

It was the first time that Father Wu saw his son's face that looked more and more like him, showing an expression that was about to collapse.Curious in his heart, even overshadowed his dissatisfaction with Wu Su's gaffe.

Seeing that Mrs. Wu was still waiting patiently without urging her, he had no choice but to suppress a trace of urgency and wait for Wu Su to recover.

After half a cup of tea, Wu Su finally woke up from the collapse, but he didn't directly say which girl he had a crush on.

"The sage has a saying, to cultivate one's morality, govern one's family, govern the country and the world, one must first be sincere, righteous, and knowledgeable. Grandmother and father, Yun Su'er, please think about it for a few days."

Old lady Wu laughed, nodded, and told Wu Su to go back first.

Father Wu was a little depressed, and the old lady Wu explained: "This child has always focused on the way of sages and sages, so he will be enlightened all at once, let's wait for a few days."

Father Wu could only temporarily put aside the matter of talking about marriage.

After Wu Su went back, he began to seriously think about his marriage.

Marriage has always been a good marriage between two surnames, and it is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.No matter which family the girl is married to, the mother and grandmother must choose a woman who is virtuous and courteous.

After marrying, raise the case and give birth to a great-grandson or great-granddaughter for the grandmother, life will be peaceful and peaceful.

But then he thought again, how could it be so easy to manage the family, otherwise there would be no such words as "disaster caused by Xiao Qiang" and "fucking each other in the same room".

I am not yet a weak crown, can I take on the life of another person, or even several people?

Wu Su didn't have the confidence.

And Li Xinyi, he didn't know why he thought of such a person when it came to getting married.

Since he entered school, no, even earlier, he has been getting farther and farther away from him.

He took out a wooden box from the cabinet, which contained several paintings by Li Xinyi. Except for "Cat Cub Playing Flowers", he found the rest of the flower paintings from other places.

Li Xinyi's paintings have his own characteristics, vivid, lifelike and beautiful, just like his people.

How did they become estranged? It was obvious that they had been so good and so close.

It has been [-] days since Li Xinyi came back to look for him, and there are still [-] days left, Wu Su thought, the wooden box is very big, and "Scalper Picture" should fit in it.

So what kind of girl does Li Xinyi like?It would be nice to be brother-in-law if they could marry a pair of sisters.

Wu Su looked at the cat with petals stuck to his nose, desperately washing his face with his paws, as if he saw the painter on the other side through the eyes of the raccoon cat.

While drawing, laughing, but also restrained hands not to shake.

As brothers-in-law, during festivals, weddings and funerals, they can still meet again, talk a few words, and then walk around casually, like that day, leaning against the willow tree, and he asked him for another Zhang Hua.

"Li Xinyi is really stingy and stingy." Wu Su couldn't help thinking, "Only paintings, no, even paintings have to be begged from him in person."

Wu Su still couldn't figure out the desire to satisfy but couldn't get it, just like he knew that they would never be brothers-in-law in this life.

But Wu Su thought it over for a while, and the next day, he went to talk to Mrs. Wu.

"Grandson thought about it all night yesterday. It's just the fame of a scholar. It's difficult to make a living, let alone take care of his wife and children. The grandson doesn't know how long he will study. Fame and wealth have no proof. The grandson wants to learn from his uncle. business, save some money, and get married.”

Mrs. Wu didn't expect her grandson to say such a thing. She was shocked at first, and then a little relieved. After all, she didn't hurt the child wrongly.

She hurriedly said: "You want to get married, can't the family still not come up with the dowry? Let alone your father, it is your grandmother who has saved a lot of gold and silver over the years, enough for your cousins ​​to marry Some of your sisters are adding makeup. You don’t have to worry about this, just tell grandma which girl you like, and I’ll let someone take care of it.”

Wu Su didn't let Mrs. Wu get sidetracked, and brought back the topic again: "Grandmother, once you get married, your grandson will be an adult. If you just study blindly, the daughter-in-law will have to be raised by grandma and father. It's a waste of reading the books of sages and sages, not being filial or fraternal."

Mrs. Wu was puzzled, wondering whether her grandson was stupid in reading.

"Since ancient times, when you start a family and start a business, you have to start a family first and then start a business. Your father's business will always be in your hands in the future, so why rush for a while. Studying and taking scientific examinations is serious."

But Wu Su insisted.If you want to take care of your wife and children, you can't study, and if you want to study, you can't take care of your wife and children.If his wife and children are left to the family to take care of, then he has read the sage books in vain.

It's just an endless loop.

The old lady Wu's dry mouth could not change Wu Su's mind, so she could only call Wu's father and Wu's mother.

The two were shocked when they heard about it. They didn't know which sentence in the book made Wu Su have such a terrible idea.

However, Mother Wu has always been gentle and gentle, and Father Wu believed in "one force will reduce ten meetings", and if he can't say it, he will be tough, but it was Mother Wu who stopped his itchy hands.

Several cousins ​​watched his brother's excitement curiously, especially Wu Gui, who was two years younger than Wu Su, was told by his mother every day how hard his brother was and how he was successful, so that he should learn more, instead of Go wild every day.

Wu Gui can't do anything to her elder brother, not to mention Wu Su is very good to his younger brothers and sisters.Thinking of having fun for a few days in the future, I couldn't help liking this elder brother more and more.

Since Ji Shiying is the teacher invited by the Wu family, he naturally has an inescapable responsibility for Wu Su's changes.Under the ardent and heavy expectations of the Wu family, he could only call Wu Su to try to persuade him and change his mind.

At first, not most of the people in Wutong Village were surnamed Wu, otherwise the name of the village would be Wujia Village, which is Wutong Village.

However, the ups and downs of each family, now that the Wu family is prosperous, other surnames have either migrated or declined.For example, with a family surnamed Li, it can be said that only Li Xinyi's family is left.

Ever since a hero came out a hundred years ago, he sailed to the west many times and found out the waterway, Jingning's tea sold better and better.The Wu family is the one who borrowed tea to make their fortune.Within the clan, both cooperate and compete with each other.

Ji Shiying was sitting on a stone bench in the back garden at this time, watching Wu Su make tea.

The tall locust trees blocked most of the sunlight, and the breeze blew by, making the leaves rustle.

After Wu Su scalded, he used a teaspoon to put the tea leaves into the teapot, and then poured hot water on them. After the tea leaves were stretched, he poured the brewed green tea into the teacup, and handed it to Ji Shiying respectfully with both hands.

Ji Shiying took it, smelled the aroma of green tea, and praised "good tea".

After finishing drinking, Wu Su poured him another cup of tea, and drank three cups of tea in a row. After Ji Shiying waved his hand, Wu Su stopped, poured himself a cup, and sipped slowly.

Ji Shiying waited for him to finish drinking tea before saying, "Tell me, what do you think?"

Wu Su said to his teacher very sincerely: "It's not the time for Su to get married before he reaches the weak crown."

Ji Shiying then replied: "It's not that you are asked to marry now, make an appointment first, and marry again when you are weak."

Wu Su said: "Su has no interest in women."

Ji Shiying said: "The matter of starting a family is the responsibility of being a son of man. You can decide whether to marry or not based on your interest. There are so many men in the world, not all of them are interested in women. But if you don't marry, you will have no children. How do you live up to the parents who gave birth to you?"

Assuming the responsibility of being the Son of Man, Wu Su couldn't refute it, so he had to pour hot water into the teapot and make a second pot of tea.

He filled Ji Shiying's teacup with tea, and added some to his own.

After putting down the teapot, Wu Su said: "Su has no livelihood yet, and cannot let his parents support his wife and children, so he cannot marry."

Ji Shiying said: "What's so difficult about this, since it was given by your father, you should take it first. When you have fame and fame, when you honor your ancestors, it will be the day when the spring will repay you."

Wu Su said: "I don't know if my master has heard such a libretto: There is no proof of fame and wealth. If you spend all your energy, you will always miss the time. It can be seen that this glory and wealth is worth your life."

Because Ji Shiying has no wife and children, and has never been in the officialdom, he always lacks the confidence to persuade Wu Su.It's just that his parents left early, his family was poor, and he just saved some coffin books every day, living a comfortable and casual life.

Wu Su obviously knew his teacher very well, and he was very considerate in his choice of words to avoid personal attacks.

In the end, Ji Shiying just said: "Your father and Lingtang are rare and kind people, so you should cherish them."

Wu Su appreciated the teacher's affection, so he brewed a third pot of tea.

The last thing Jingning lacked was tea, and Ji Shiying left after drinking a full stomach of tea.He must have gone to give Mrs. Wu an explanation.

A teacher personally participated in the battle, and finally Wu Su's grandfather made the decision.

Wu Su likes to marry, but doesn't like to marry. He is only fifteen now, so let's talk about it in two years.

After two years, I don't know what the situation will be.

The marriage matter came to an end for the time being, and the one-month period was over, Wu Su went to Li Xinyi's house in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Mother Li was picking up beans at the door, and the civet cat was lazily lying on the low stool made of stone. It is coolest in summer.The other three kittens have grown up a lot and are rolling and playing on the ground.

The big yellow dog was lying on the other side of Li's mother, and the reed chicken was pecking at the stones in the yard.

The only thing missing is Li Xinyi, which shows that falling out of favor is not unreasonable.

Big Yellow Dog met Wu Su a few times, and after seeing him, he no longer showed obvious hostility.The ears pricked up, then drooped down again.It's been a bit hot these days, and it doesn't like to move, so as to avoid the risk of heatstroke if its body temperature is high.

"Auntie." Wu Su called out.

Li's mother put down the bamboo sieve on her lap, stood up and said, "Xinyi is painting in it, sit down for a while."

Speaking loudly, he called out Li Xinyi's name.

Li Xinyi was painting a storyboard with an anxious expression on her face, when she heard Li's mother calling him, she had to put down the brush in her hand first.

As soon as he came out, he saw Wu Su, and thought of what he was doing here, and quickly said, "Wait a minute, I'll take the painting right away."

Mother Li poured a bowl of honeysuckle tea and gave it to Wu Su, saying, "The honeysuckle just dried this year is fresh, try it."

Wu Su took it with both hands, and thanked Li's mother: "Thank you, Auntie, this scented tea smells really good."

Mother Li smiled and said, "I'm going to make dinner, you can stay here to eat at night."

Before Wu Su could think of any words to refuse, Li Xinyi came out with a painting in her hand.

"Look, is it still in your mind?"
