leisurely farming life

Liu family.

"Niansi, you can't marry. Mr. Jiang has passed his [-]th birthday this year. If you marry, you will definitely not have a good result!" Uncle Liu was full of pain. He held his son's hand and said over and over again: "No matter what happens, let's live together as a family. No matter how worthless your father is, he won't let you marry into that kind of family. Dad won't let you suffer!"

Liu Niansi tried to comfort her father with a smile: "Dad, everyone is blessed, and I am old enough to have a good marriage. I accept my fate."

Uncle Liu's dark face was even more ugly because of the words of the child's husband. He was downcast, feeling pain and unwillingness for his own incompetence.

"I'll think of a way again, let me think of a way..."

Cheng Qing and Xiaoyun's footsteps were not easy, and even a little heavy. Along the way, they heard a lot about what happened to the Liu family today. Although the villagers were not malicious, they still had a heart for jokes.

If it's true that good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles!What happened just now turned out to be the talk of the villagers after dinner.

Listening carefully, Cheng Qing probably knew the reasons behind it.

The Liu family didn't always live in Wangjia Village, but they were newcomers who moved here more than ten years ago.

The Liu family was poor, and could not buy fields or grow vegetables. Another relative of the Liu family, Liu Niansi's uncle, helped them out. With Uncle Niansi's money, they built a house and bought fields, and they lived like that.

But just half a month ago, Liu Niansi's uncle wiped out the family's property because of gambling. The sum of money was actually only 100 taels of silver, but it was impossible for Uncle Liu Niansi's family.

At this time, they realized that Liu's family still had a twin son, so Liu Niansi's aunt discussed with the creditor that as long as the twin son married his master, that is, Mr. Jiang, as a concubine, the 100 taels of silver would be regarded as a dowry gift. There is no need to pay it back.

On the one hand, there is a big family relationship, on the other hand, a real person. Even if Uncle Liu is reluctant, he has no way to say no.

And Nian Si is the final victim of all things, a victim who has been favored and now has to pay back with his body and life.

Cheng Qing lowered his head all the time, trying to get rid of the things that entered his mind, but the more he thought about it, the more he could think of Nian Si's face, innocent and stubborn, as if he would never give in to fate.

The two walked non-stop, and halfway there, a person suddenly ran past Cheng Qing. The person had already run past, but he still stopped, and then slowly backed away, grinning and saying: "Aunt Cheng Shuang, are you going home?"

"Xiaoshan? Why are you running in such a hurry?" Cheng Qing quickly grabbed Xiaoshan who was about to escape, as if there was something urgent waiting for him to do.

"I'm going to miss brother's house."

"Niansijia?" Xiaoyun asked in surprise: "Why are you going to Niansijia? You little child, don't go to Niansijia now, go home quickly, stop playing around!"

Xiaoyun became serious, which is rare, Xiaoshan was still a little unaccustomed, and shrank to Cheng Qing with some fear, Cheng Qing gave Xiaoyun a look, squatted down, and said gently: "Sister Xiaoyun is not trying to hurt you, but just read now Brother Si is definitely not happy, if you go to Brother Niansi's house to make trouble with him, Brother Niansi will be more uncomfortable and unhappy, good boy, go home with Aunt Cheng Shuang, Aunt Cheng Shuang will ask Sister Xiaoyun to cook something delicious for you, okay? "

Wang Xiaoshan shook his head: "I'm not going to make trouble with brother Niansi, I'm going to tell brother Niansi and Grandpa Liu, my father said that brother Niansi doesn't need to marry that old master Jiang, my father wants to marry brother Niansi."

Both Cheng Qing and Xiaoyun were stunned, unable to react for a while, Wang Xiaoshan looked at Cheng Qing's out-of-focus eyes, stretched out his hand, and dangled curiously in front of his eyes: "Shuangaunt, Shuangaunt, you What are you thinking about?"

Hearing Xiao Shan's words, Xiao Yun squatted down immediately, pulled Xiao Shan's arm with both hands a little uncontrollably, and asked, "Your father said that he wanted to marry Nian Si? Really?"

Wang Xiaoshan's arm hurts, but seeing sister Xiaoyun's nervous face, he nodded hurriedly: "Well, my father said that I haven't invited a matchmaker yet, and I will ask the matchmaker to come to propose marriage when I go to invite a matchmaker tomorrow. .

So I specially asked me to go to Brother Niansi's house to tell them to rest assured that there is no rush about the silver issue, nor about the marriage, my father will take care of it. "

Xiaoyun's sad face finally dissipated, and he let go of Wang Xiaoshan with both hands. Thinking that someone was going to save Niansi, Xiaoyun's brows that had been difficult to relax no longer frown. There is still a turning point, and Niansi's fate can still be changed.

"Aunt Cheng Shuang, Sister Xiaoyun, I still have to go to brother Niansi's house. My father said that this matter cannot be delayed, so I will go first."

Wang Xiaoshan wanted to run away, but Cheng Qing suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiaoshan: "Does your father like Brother Niansi?"

Wang Xiaoshan shook his head: "I don't know..."

"Then why did your father marry Niansi?"

"Young master, the Wang family is willing to marry Niansi. It can help Niansi get rid of the nightmare and let Niansi stay in Wangjiacun. Isn't that a good thing? What are you struggling with?"

Xiaoyun couldn't understand it, it was only natural that the young master didn't want to save Niansi, but he shouldn't stop others from saving Niansi!

Cheng Qing didn't care about Xiao Yun at all, he asked again: "Why did your father marry Nian Si?"

"My father said to repay his kindness." Wang Xiaoshan recalled: "When I was young, one day my father went up the mountain, and then I accidentally fell into the creek. It was brother Niansi who gave up his life to save me. brought me back.

Since then, my father has told me that Brother Niansi is our family's benefactor, no matter what others say or do, I must repay Brother Niansi! "

Seemingly dissatisfied with Xiao Shan's answer, Cheng Qing's original frown deepened, as if he could pinch a fly to death.

"Aunt Shuang, can you let me go? I have to go to Brother Niansi."

"You go home first, I will help you pass on what you said to Niansi, go home quickly, be obedient."

"But……"

"It's nothing to worry about. I believe my aunt will convey it to you."

Wang Xiaoshan looked at Cheng Qing inexplicably, but Cheng Qing didn't seem to want to meet his gaze, and kept looking at Liu's house in the distance, as if to see a big hole.

"Okay, those aunts must tell brother Niansi, otherwise my father will scold me."

"it is good……"

After getting Cheng Qing's answer, Xiao Shan ran over in a hurry, and Xiaoyun who was standing by the side was equally inexplicable, she really couldn't understand Cheng Qing's thoughts now.

"My lord, shall we go to Liu's house now?"

Cheng Qing shook his head and said firmly, "Go home..."

"But……"

"It's nothing, go home."

The speed of going back was much faster than before. As soon as he got home, Cheng Qing went straight to his room, closed the door, and refused to open it despite what happened outside. Cheng Qing, whose temperament had changed drastically, felt even more depressed.

So he treated himself like a bodhisattva, sitting in the yard, staring at Cheng Qing's door without moving.

After a while, Cheng Qing finally opened the door and came out, holding two bank notes in his hand: "Take it to Nian Si, just say I gave it to you, and don't say anything else."

Xiaoyun took the silver ticket, and after a closer look, it turned out to be 200 taels of silver. Xiaoyun raised his head in surprise: "My lord, you are..."

"Just take it, don't talk too much." Cheng Qing turned around and was about to enter the door, when he suddenly thought of something, he paused and said, "If he wants to come with you, let him come."

"Hey!" Although he didn't know why Cheng Qing had such a big change, Xiao Yun happily ran out with the bank note.

Xiaoyun handed the banknote to Niansi, but he was obedient and didn't say much, only that Cheng Qing gave it to him.

When Liu Niansi saw the banknote, he looked at Xiaoyun in disbelief, took it with trembling hands, and kept saying, "Thank you, thank you..."

However, Liu Niansi did not come back with Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun came back alone, but obviously, his steps were much easier.

"My lord, I have already given the banknote to Niansi, he is very happy, and keeps saying thank you, lord..."

Seeing that there was no one in the yard, Xiaoyun guessed that he must be in the house, so she opened the door carefully and explained to him about sending money.

Cheng Qing did not lie on the bed, but lay on the rocking chair, with his eyes closed tightly, and he shook the fan in his hand once and for all: "Well, I'm hungry for cooking."

"Eh...but that hill..."

"Shut up and cook."

Xiaoyun closed the door embarrassingly, and ran to the kitchen to cook.

After Xiaoyun left, Cheng Qing slowly opened his eyes. He sat up, thought for a while, then stood up and walked to the side room, looked at the enshrined spirit tablet on the table, knelt down, clasped his hands together and said, "Mother, The son didn't want to be troublesome, but the son knew that if the son didn't help, the twins would definitely commit suicide. The son knows that you have always been merciful, so naturally you don't want the child to have trouble. May you bless the son and bless the child, The future will be safe and sound.”

After kowtowing, Cheng Qing stood up, closed the door reverently, and completed a mission.

Just after lunch, Liu Niansi came to Cheng's house.It was different from every time in the past. He was wearing the most plain clothes and carrying luggage on his back, as if he was moving house.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down in front of Cheng Qing and respectfully said, "Nian Si greets you, Young Master."

Xiao Yun was stunned by the side, she had no idea what happened: "Nian Si, what are you doing?"

"Sister Xiaoyun, I will be the son's servant from now on, and we will serve you together."

"When did it happen, why didn't I know?"

"When I received the silver taels, I signed a contract of sale with the young master. I will be the young master's person for the rest of my life, and I am willing to be a cow or a horse."
