Dong Wu's uncle, Quack Chen Jinshui, saw the two people coming into the house, put down the tea bowl in his hand and stood up, and said to Dong Wu, "Wu Lang is back. Now is the season, the watermelon in the field is coming out, I am thinking of you I didn’t have melons to eat, so I carried a basket on my back. You were not at home just now, and your wife entertained me. I said Wu Lang, hey, you begged for a wife. Why haven’t we heard anything about it? We don't know what you're doing, and we didn't even come to the wedding..."

As Chen Jinshui said, he looked at Song Li again, only to be dazzled by Song Li's beautiful appearance, so he couldn't help pulling Dong Wu to praise, "You are indeed a good wife, really pretty."

Song Li was very embarrassed by what he said, so he went into the kitchen to scoop up water and wash his face. Dong Wu invited Chen Jinshui to sit down and said, "Although I'm married, my parents are gone, so it's no big deal. Banquet, that's why I didn't send you a letter about it."

Granny Li also followed Song Li into the kitchen and said, "Brother Chen finally came here. I just asked him to stay overnight, but he said no, and he has to go home. Hurry up and cook a bowl of sugar water and eggs as treats." he."

Song Li responded and started to do things.

In fact, he still doesn't know what kind of relative this person is Dong Wu, but since Granny Li said so, he should do so.

Granny Li started a fire, and Song Li went to the back room to get eggs from under the bed. There is no refrigerator, and eggs are easy to spoil in summer, but the shady back room is cooler under the bed, so the eggs can be stored for a longer period of time.

Song Li took four eggs, and Granny Li lit the fire. When she came to the kitchen and saw it, she reminded him, "Brother Chen often came and walked around when Dong Wu's father was around, and I haven't forgotten about it in the past few years." Dong Wu, how can these four eggs be enough, go and get two more, and make up six."

Song Li didn't know that boiled eggs in sugar water had so much care, so he hurriedly brought two more eggs.

It doesn’t take much effort to boil eggs in sugar water, just boil the water, put rock sugar in it, and then make sure to use lard, boil it, break the eggs in, watch the eggs roll in it for a few minutes, then scoop them up to make soft-boiled eggs. Sprinkle some sesame seeds on the surface after scooping it up.

Most of the chickens here eat vegetable leaves and insects to grow up and lay eggs, so the eggs have a strong fishy smell. Song Li only eats well-cooked eggs. This kind of runny eggs with fishy smell is not sensitive, but people here entertain guests It is said that this is very high-class, very high-class, even if there are very real guests, they have to be entertained like this.

After Song Li cooked the eggs, Granny Li brought them to the table. After hearing a few words from the relative in the main room, she started to eat anyway. It must be Dong Wu who told Granny Li what to do. He went out in the sun wearing a straw hat.

Song Li went to say hello to the guest, but couldn't find anything to talk about, so he went into the bedroom to read a book while feeling bored.

After a while, the guest must have finished eating his eggs, so he lowered his voice to talk to Dong Wu. Song Li was bored anyway, so he sat on the bamboo bed in the next room to listen to their chat.

I just didn’t expect to hear the guest say, “Niu Niu from the second family has been thinking about you, and she said she would send it to your house a few years ago. You said Niu Niu is small, but now she’s grown up, and she’s grown up. She can do most of the work at home, and no one in our village says she can do it. I think your daughter-in-law is very beautiful, but she is not good at work. Let Niuniu come over and help take care of the house. There is no need to bother Sister Li to come to your house to help. Look, this is feasible?"

Thinking that Dong Wu didn't want to come, the guest immediately said, "I don't need any scenes, just let her come here by herself, treat your uncle to a drink, and call it your little one, Niu Niu always Be obedient, she is determined not to cause this beautiful little lady of yours to be jealous."

When Song Li heard this, the book in his hand fell to the floor, and there was a thud. He hadn't heard it well enough, and only then did he think that Dong Wu, a relative, came here to tell him a matchmaker and let him find a concubine. of it?

Song Li stood there in surprise, feeling very complicated in his heart. Although he often wanted Dong Wu to marry a wife, and he would marry a wife in the future, it might be better, but when he heard that someone wanted Dong Wu to recruit a concubine, he was still very upset. Surprised and uncomfortable, I was suffocating in my heart.

The insects outside the window kept screeching, which made people's ears uncomfortable. Dong Wu didn't hear the sound of the book in Song Li's hand falling in the next room in the main room, and the guest didn't think it was any good for Dong Wu to marry a concubine. In his heart, a man with a certain family background should have a concubine, so he said it without taboo.

Dong Wu could only say, "Uncle Quack, you should go back and let Niuniu find a good man to marry. I already have a wife and I don't want another one. Besides, it is not good to let Niuniu come to my house. She is so capable. , even if she doesn’t speak well, it doesn’t mean she can’t marry a good family, you should let her marry well, so what’s the matter with sending her to me as a concubine.”

Chen Jinshui was stunned for a moment before saying, "Do you dislike her and don't want her? It's useless for her to miss you for so many years. I came to your house today, and she sent me to the road at the entrance of the village. The watermelon for you is all hers." Choose one by one, you should know that she is not a jealous person, so what if she comes to be your concubine? She usually does not cost money to eat, and she will not ask you to spend much money to support her."

Dong Wu hurriedly explained, "Uncle Quack, it's really not what you think. Song Li and I just got married, and another person wants to come in. What's the matter? Others will say that he can't do it, so I do it again Hastily looking for another person to enter the door, he is not in good health, isn't this going to make him mad?"

Chen Jinshui was relieved to hear him say this, and said, "Then in a year or two, let Niuniu come to your house. She is 15 years old now, and it is okay to wait another two years."

Dong Wu sighed helplessly, and had to explain again, "Uncle Quack, let Niuniu marry someone else, I really don't mean to ask another person to come in, look at my father, isn't he only my mother? I just want to live with Song Li alone. Niu Niu, I just treat her as my own sister, and I have no other meaning to her. If you keep trying to send Niu Niu to my house, I will never dare to entertain you in the future. "

Dong Wu was obviously angry when he said that, Chen Jinshui was silent for a while before saying, "Niu Niu is so nice, do you just despise her like this? She misses you all day long, and we want her to marry someone else, too. But she won't marry."

Dong Wu was also silent, and it was only after a while that he said helplessly, "She will fall in love with others, and I can't invite her into my home. You go back and tell her, I'm married, and my wife and I are very affectionate." , she will die."

Song Li sat in the cubicle and listened to what they had to say, feeling very strange in his heart, as if he was relieved by Dong Wu's words, but unconsciously felt sad for that girl named Niu Niu, after all, she only wanted to marry her. Dong Wu, Dong Wu is not interested in her.

Granny Li went to the fish pond to bring back a seven or eight catty grass carp. When sending Chen Jinshui away, Song Li did not show up. Dong Wu asked Chen Jinshui to bring the fish back, and then emphasized again that they should marry Niuniu to someone else. Don't even try to marry him.

The sun was still very high outside, Chen Jinshui refused to stay at Dong Wu's house, so he left on the road.

The basket of watermelons that Chen Jinshui carried was piled up in the corner of the main room, some small and some big, probably as many as seven or eight.

Dong Wu knew that Song Li must have heard what he said to Chen Jinshui, so he went into the inner room to see him. Song Li was sitting at the table with his head propped up, watching "Mencius" absent-mindedly.

Dong Wu sat down across from him, stretched out his hand to caress the back of his hand, and said, "Don't worry, I'm only you, and I won't invite concubines into my room. Niuniu is Uncle Gaga's granddaughter, she was born with a big tongue, so say no To be clear, I don't know why she fell in love with me and kept saying that she would marry me. I really have no interest in her. "

Song Li raised his head, smiled at Dong Wu, and said, "You don't need to explain to me, I don't care."

Although Song Li said he didn't care, the expression on his face was sour that he didn't realize it himself. Dong Wu got up and leaned over to kiss the tip of his nose. Song Li was kissed by him, itchy, He quickly reached out and touched it, and said, "There is no need to explain to comfort me, I know what you want, and I won't think about it."

Dong Wu just laughed, and Song Li answered him like this, in fact, he already regarded him as his husband in his heart!It's just that Song Li hasn't found out yet.
