Civilian Edition Traveling Farming Diary

I didn't go to Cui's house to tell a book today, because Liu Dong was welcoming his relatives today, and I helped drive the car.

Marriage here is the least important thing, there are no ceremonies, but if you want to use a car to pick up someone, you must pay attention to having a young man to drive the car, and you can't let the groom do it yourself.

The young man driving the car must be married, newly married is the best, it is called happiness on top of happiness, I just got the marriage certificate yesterday, even if it is the latest marriage, Liu Zhao asked me to drive Liu Dong's car.

The cart used by Liu Dong to pick up his bride is a donkey cart, not an ox cart, and spring plowing will be required soon, and there is only one cow in the village, which is expensive and cannot be used to pull a cart. At this time, cattle are very important livestock, and all cattle in the village are owned by the government. Register and record, if a cow in a village dies or is injured, someone in the village will be imprisoned, even if the cow is old and sick and unable to work, it cannot be slaughtered and eaten, and it must be sent back to the government for unified processing.

I digressed, talking about driving the donkey cart.

The little donkey is very energetic, with a red flower hanging on his head. This red flower is shared, and everyone uses it when they get married. The donkey belongs to Li Laotian's family in the village. He rents it for five yuan this time.

I don't know how to drive a cart, but this donkey is used to this business, and he is very sensible. I don't need much skill, and I can drive slowly under Liu Dong's guidance. The donkey is very smart!

Liu Dong was dressed in red, and we went to pick him up while chatting. When we arrived at the neighboring village, the bride’s side was already ready. When we arrived, we would send her to the car. The dowry had a quilt, and there was nothing else. .

The bride wears green, no hijab, a red fake flower pinned to her ear, no makeup on her face, and looks plain, but she is quite young, so she is quite gratifying.

The dowry is only a quilt. I know this is because Liu Dong has sent a lot of things to the husband's family, so there is such a dowry, otherwise it would be ten eggs.

This quilt is very rich and worth showing off.

Liu Dong was a little nervous when he saw the bride, and the bride bowed her head in embarrassment. Liu Dong said that they had never met before their marriage.

We picked people up just like that. There were not many relatives to see them off, and there was no cheering or petal shower, so we simply took them away.

Back in the village, many villagers came out to watch the excitement. Everyone had nothing to do in the winter, and they talked and gossiped a lot, wishing to comment on the two of them, especially the bride, from head to toe.

Liu Zhao's face was flushed, and she couldn't wait to see her daughter-in-law, but she was the mistress, so she could only wait at home for the new couple to worship her.

Send the newcomer home, and I'll be fine. Mrs. Liu Zhao gave me five eggs as a thank you gift.I think I also have to prepare eggs. Chen Xiang has almost finished my clothes, and we may have a serious wedding in a few days.

It was very lively outside, Chen Xiang didn't dare to go out, he avoided people as much as he could now, for fear of getting into trouble.

I stayed with him at home. Didn’t we do that last night? He was very shy all day today. I just like to tease him and make him so ashamed. It’s fun.

Before lunch, however, this little husband-and-wife fun was over, because a very unpleasant incident happened.

Liu Zhao’s family finished all the procedures, and people gradually dispersed. Liu Zhao took his son and daughter-in-law to deliver eggs to neighbors. Although I had already taken five, it was a gift from the driver. , as a neighbor, I have to charge again.

This is a big happy event for the family, and we must treat each other with courtesy, so Mrs. Liu Zhao knocked on the door, and I opened the door with Chen Xiang. I took two warm eggs and expressed my blessings to their family.

We said a lot of auspicious words, Liu Zhao and his son and daughter-in-law were all happy from ear to ear, and then when they were about to leave the next family, someone in the crowd suddenly screamed.

A woman shouted: "Look at Chen Xiang's forehead!"

I froze for a moment, Ah Xiang's forehead?

Bright and clean as porcelain, what's wrong?

Then the woman said angrily, "You've only lived in Zhang Cheng's house for a few days and you're broken?"

Chen Xiang's face turned pale all of a sudden, and the little red mole between his eyebrows will disappear after the consummation of the little brother's marriage. I know this, and I teased him about it for a long time. Is there anything wrong with that?

I saw that woman, she was a pregnant woman, with one hand touching her belly and the other on her hips, looking up and down at Chen Xiang made her uncomfortable.

I pulled Chen Xiang behind me and said loudly to everyone: "To tell you the truth, I registered Ah Xiang's household registration yesterday and got the marriage certificate. Ah Xiang is now my husband."

The woman was stunned for a moment, sneered, and said to the woman beside her: "I just got the marriage certificate and I couldn't wait to climb on the man's kang. I said at that time that this little brother is not a good one. He is a ghost, and he stays on the bed with shameless face." If you get married, you will definitely be able to hook him, what do you think, am I right?"

I got angry, I broke away from the crowd and pointed at the woman and yelled, "You don't have to be afraid of what the hell you say, you don't dare to flick your waist, believe it or not, I'll dig you with a hoe!"

The woman seemed to be frightened, and hid behind the crowd and scolded: "A lowly person is a lowly person, what good things can come out of the kiln, bah, disgusting!"

I was furious, the newly bought farm tools were placed behind the door, I picked up a hoe and smashed them over, damn it, what a bitch, why did Chen Xiang provoke her? Just say that about Chen Xiang!

The woman ran away screaming, and her family hurriedly protected her, scolding us as she walked.I was going to chase and kill her, but was stopped by the villagers.

Several aunts persuaded me, saying that the woman was Su Mai's younger aunt, and she was venting her anger for her nephew.

Some people advised me not to argue with others, saying that Chen Xiang should not be allowed to go out.

Some people also said that there is no need to do it personally for Chen Xiang.

Some people even persuaded me to go back and think about it. What that little aunt Su Mai said was not unreasonable. Why did a little brother Chen Xiang stay at my house despite the rumors and treat me so well? rely on it?

As soon as this statement came out, many people echoed it, saying that Chen Xiang had ulterior motives and tried every means to deceive me, and I foolishly stood up for him.

I really have the heart to kill!

Chen Xiang ran up behind me, cried and said loudly: "I didn't, I really treat brother Zhang Cheng well, I'm not that kind of person!"

There was a tut-tsk sound from the crowd, and some people pointed and said: "The ones who come out of the kiln are shameless, and you can say this!"

"Yes, shameless, this is..."

"Look at him crying like pear blossoms with rain. He has practiced it. I heard that everyone in the kiln can seduce people, so crying can seduce people."

"Yeah, you said he guards men all day long and doesn't go out, so what can he do? He's still pretending!"

"..."

I was dizzy, and I took Chen Xiang's hand. The little hand was cold and trembling. I picked up the hoe and dug a hole in the same place. The ground was frozen hard, and my arm was numb with the hoe, but it was successful. Shut up those unlucky bastards.

I gritted my teeth and said, "Chen Xiang is my husband, whoever dares to talk too much, I will dig his ancestral grave with my hoe!"

After I finished speaking, I pulled Chen Xiang into the house. When I turned around and closed the door, I saw many people watching a show. I suddenly understood one thing. As long as Chen Xiang is here, he will never be able to gain a foothold.

Even if he did nothing wrong, even if he doesn't leave the door, even if he is kind to others, these ignorant villagers will not spare him, but if there is any trouble, they will use schadenfreude to ridicule, we have a good life and say he will hook up Man, not having a good time says he deserves it.

Anyway, the most painful part of his past has forever marked him with shame.

Chen Xiang stood in the yard crying into tears, I pulled him home, hugged him and made him cry, while crying he kept saying that he didn't plot against me and let me believe him.

I said I believe you, I know you are a good person.

He cried and said: "At first I planned to leave after the new year, but Brother Zhang Cheng, you treat me well, so I am a little reluctant. I am a bit shameless, but I treat you well because I like you, not calculating you. Really, I'm not shameless, I'm not that kind of person..."

I hugged him, and my heart ached to death. Even though Chen Xiang had a little selfishness towards me, so what? He didn't seduce me, and he didn't plan to harm others. Don't know what is green tea and what is white lotus?

What's more, I proposed that Chen Xiang stay and marry me, and I was the one who carried him to the kang and took off his clothes. Why should he bear so much infamy?

Chen Xiang has been here for a few months, and he has only met a few people. Speaking of people he knows, there are no more than ten at most. He doesn't talk to anyone, and he doesn't make trouble. don't go out...

How could they speak so eloquently!It seems that Chen Xiang has known him since he was born.

Chen Xiang cried too hard and turned into sobbing. I think that sometimes people are really forced to go to Liangshan. The things I have been hesitating for so many reasons are not important now.

I realized that as long as we are still here, Chen Xiang will never have a bright future, and he will be pointed at for the rest of his life.

I helped Chen Xiang up, wiped his tears, and said seriously: "Ah Xiang, shall we leave?"

Chen Xiang's eyes were red, and he choked and said, "Have you decided to leave with the Cui family?"

I said, "We have to get out of here to live a peaceful life."

He said, "But can the Cui family accept me?"

I said: "Whether they accept it or not, we have to leave. If they don't accept it, I will take you away. Let's go to other counties, other state capitals, to places where no one knows us. We have hands and feet. , can always go on.”

He nodded.

After noon, the turmoil in the morning gradually dissipated, and there was no one outside, so I went out and locked the door, and rushed to the town.

At this time, the snow was still falling, and it was getting bigger and bigger. I ran all the way to the boss's house regardless. When Boss Cui opened the door, I fell to my knees.

I can’t tell if it’s because of the exhaustion or something else, but at that moment, I was extremely desperate and desperately needed an outlet to vent my emotions. After I knelt down, I felt that the whole world had calmed down, and there were no more villagers arguing like chickens and ducks. noisy.

Boss Cui was taken aback, quickly helped me up, and said, "What happened? Come in and tell me."

I followed him into the door, and his servants took a cloth towel to sweep the snow off my body. Boss Cui's cousin brought Cui Changyu over and asked me what was going on.

I gave him a big gift and said, "Boss Cui, I am willing to go with you, advise you, and do my best to help you run the workshop."

The three men of the Cui family looked at each other, and Boss Cui said: "Mr. Zhang has something to sit down and say, I think you seem to have cried, what happened?"

I smiled wryly and told about Chen Xiang, and I said: "Chen Xiang is my husband and my only family member. I can't see him being wronged, and I can't leave him alone. If you can accept him, I will accept him." Take him with you."

Boss Cui's cousin said: "Mr. Zhang told Zun Fulang's life experience completely, are you afraid that we will not accept it and reject you?"

I shook my head and said, "To be honest, I came here to hope that you would accept me. Since you mentioned this matter that day, I have thought about it seriously. There are many ideas about future operations, and I think they are all feasible, so I am willing Cooperate with you, but I can't trouble you because of my husband's affairs, this is the principle of my life, so I must tell you the truth."

He asked again: "If I reject you, what are you going to do?"

I said: "Leave, must leave, I will take him wandering all the way, to a distant place to settle down."

He nodded, turned his face and asked his son: "Changyu, what do you think?"

Cui Changyu spread his hands: "What is this? If Zhang Fulang is going to be scolded like this, then won't my Qingping be dragged out and paraded in the street and burned to death?"

Boss Cui's cousin spat at him: "Walking on your ass street, the first month has not passed yet, so you can't say something auspicious!"

Cui Changyu smiled and scratched his head, and said to me: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, you have a lot of bad rules here, and we in Fengzhou don't pay attention to these. My concubine Qingping used to be the number one card in Huanyiyuan. Redeeming her back is a common occurrence on our side."

Boss Cui's cousin scolded: "You bear has the face to say that you don't do your job all day long, and just do things like looking for flowers and asking willows!"

Cui Changyu said hey: "Qingping is a girl, what's the matter, I'm not going now!"

Boss Cui’s cousin said to me: “Mr. Zhang, don’t worry, the people in Fengzhou are open and don’t care about these things. Since you are interested, let’s meet here on the morning of the [-]th.”

I was stunned, it's that simple?

Boss Cui and the others told me with their eyes that it was as simple as that.

They also told me what to do if they asked me to reject me. If I chose to struggle on the spot or abandon Fulang, they would not take me. They don't like cowards, and they don't like men who don't take responsibility.

I'm really, really happy and sad this day...

I thanked the family and rushed home to bring the news to Chen Xiang. Boss Cui said that I would stay at home with my husband for a few days and there was no need to come again. I agreed.

Go back and tell Chen Xiang that Chen Xiang is also very happy. Finding a place that can accept him is much better than burying the past and living carefully. In this way, we decided to leave. We have to deal with messy things these days and pack our bags. .
