Chen Xiang didn't sneak away today, he was very good all day long, he got up early in the morning and made noodle porridge with multigrain, stewed pork ribs with radish at noon, and steamed bean noodle steamed bread and cabbage soup in the evening.

The meals are simple and delicious.

Many people know about the fact that he ran away and was carried back by me. Mrs. Liu Zhao came to me again and told me that it was not good to do so, and it would affect my finding a partner.

I said, let's wait for it first, and wait for the spring to talk about it.

Liu Zhaoshi left with a sigh.

Soon after she left, it began to snow, and Chen Xiang came over cautiously and talked to me about something.

He said that it was enough for him to eat one meal a day, and he didn't have to work anyway. I reassured him that there was enough food in the house to support him.

He was very embarrassed, and asked me if I could pickle some radishes and sell them, and the money from the sales would belong to me, which was the food and rent for his food and living during this period.

There are a lot of radishes at home, so it's good to make some. Mrs. Liu Zhao said that there will be a small market in the twelfth lunar month, which will be held among several nearby villages. Everyone will take the opportunity to exchange some New Year's goods with each other.

I agreed.

Chen Xiang washed and dried the radishes, found two jars and marinated them with various ingredients, and calculated the time until the twelfth lunar month.

He said it was taught to him by his mother before she was alive, and it tastes good. In the past, he would make some and sell them every year, and the sales were quite good.

I said that after that he could set up a pickle stand and buy pickles to support himself.

He shook his head with a wry smile, saying that I can only sell it after it has been marinated. If others know that it is made by him, they will not buy it.

After all, it is still feudal thinking, and I feel that a little brother like him is not clean.

He was quite wronged, and I was wronged for him too. He was forced, and he only entered once. The red mole on the brow is still there, which means that he has not been touched by anyone. Even this is not tolerated by society. This society is really too Harsh too.

I told him not to think too much, and live here with peace of mind, and it won't be too late to leave when he thinks of a way out.

He was a little worried about Su Mai.

I said it doesn't matter, I didn't promise anything to their family, I didn't even say a few words to Su Mai, we won't be together until there is a foundation of affection.

After the snow stopped, I swept the snow in the yard and pushed it to the ditch at the side of the village with a small cart. I borrowed the small cart from Liu Dong. He said that I had better ask someone to make one next year to grow crops and harvest. Useful for crops.

I was silent and tearful, can you not tell me about farming, I really don’t know how to do it!

But I made a note to make a small cart.

Generally, the snow and daily garbage in the village will be dumped into the ditch outside the village. At this time, there are no garbage bins, and there is not much non-degradable harmful garbage. In fact, there is very little garbage. The villagers use everything they can use. When it is on, it will not be thrown easily, so the ditch is not dirty.

When I pushed the trolley over, there were already three or five villagers there, all of whom were also pouring snow.

It happened that Su Mai and his brother turned around after pouring snow, and bumped into me.

Su Mai was a little shy and hid behind his brother. His brother smiled at me and asked if I needed help.I said no, the yard at home is small, so it will be done soon.

Brother Su Mai hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is that Chen Xiang still at your house?"

I said he was here, and he had nowhere to go in this cold day.

Brother Su Mai was a little unhappy, and said, "Then what is Chen Xiang's identity? I'm afraid it's not good for you to keep him at home?"

I don't know how to answer him, I feel so embarrassed, what's the matter, it's just that Liu Zhaoshi came to ask me, but I didn't agree to anything, why does it feel like I've done something wrong to Su Mai?

Su Mai lowered his head and hid behind his brother without saying a word. Brother Su Mai said angrily that if I planned to keep Chen Xiang at home for a winter, they would find someone to go to another house for Su Mai to say goodbye during the Chinese New Year.

Let me tell you the truth, Chen Xiang will definitely stay at my house this winter, people here will freeze to death every year, they don’t know, how can I bear to let a helpless little brother live and die in the ice and snow , not to mention that Chen Xiang's wind and cold are still not healed, and he will surely die if he is driven out.

Brother Su Mai gritted his teeth and said yes, then they will find someone else for Su Mai.

I have no objection, and I don't have any feelings for Su Mai, so I nodded and left.

Brother Su Mai and I passed by, and Su Mai walked behind with his head down. When he saw me, he secretly raised his eyes and glanced at me. His big eyes were watery, as if he was wronged.

I am baffled.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Liu and Zhao came to me and said that the Su family came to ask again. I said that they wanted to find someone else.

Mrs. Liu Zhao scolded me for being stupid, saying that I don't know how good my conditions are, that I can earn money, that I will be the master after marriage, and that I don't have any in-laws to serve, so the Su family really can't let it go. Brother Su Mai said that in a moment of anger.

I was really helpless, I said that I didn't think my conditions were good, and they asked Chen Xiang to leave, but I couldn't do it either.

The most important thing is that Su Mai and I really don't understand each other, and I cannot accept such a marriage.

It's okay if we can get to know each other, but getting to know each other first doesn't mean it will definitely be successful. Maybe after getting to know each other, we find that they are not suitable for each other, so we fall down.Such a thing is unacceptable in this era. People will say that I am playing with Su Mai, and it will not be easy for Su Mai to marry in the future.

Liu Zhaoshi had no choice but to say that it would fail, and it was not a big deal. Whoever said that the marriage was not settled immediately, but felt that Su Mai's child was not bad, which was a pity.

I said fate cannot be forced.

Chen Xiang felt very guilty about this, and always felt that something was wrong with him. I persuaded him for a while, but he still seemed unable to let go.

I warned him not to do stupid things anymore, and he said no more, that I saved his life twice, and that I cared more about his life than himself, and that he couldn't let me down, that he would live well, and wait until spring came. Walk.

This made me feel at ease.

In the evening, Chen Xiang took the medicine and told me that he would change rooms with me to sleep. I am the host, and I should live in the east room. I will let him take care of the wind and cold first.
