Chapter 6452: Escape
Qing'an County, He family.
Xiao An was drunk all day and night. When he woke up the next day, he only remembered what happened yesterday. Sanbao gave him a jar of wine in the open space behind the coaching field and encouraged him to get drunk. Apart from coming over to propose marriage, nothing else was known.
As for how he got to the He family, how he proposed marriage to the He family, and whether he even proposed marriage, he himself couldn't remember.
So the next morning, when He Lianer came into the house with a basin of water to wash Xiao An, she saw Xiao An sitting on the bed, with a tired and haggard face after a hangover, holding her hands My head, the whole person was sitting there in a daze.
This is completely different from his usual image of a strong and vigorous man. At this moment, he seems to He Lian'er to be ten years younger, like a child, dull and a little cute.
He Lian'er took a deep breath, carried the basin into the house, and said softly: "Brother Xiao An, wash your face."
Xiao An came back to his senses and looked up. Her busy figure actually looked a little uneasy.
Isn’t she working in a restaurant? Why did you come home?
Yesterday, did I really do something stupid while drunk yesterday?
Xiao An, who had never been drunk before, wanted to punch himself.
"Brother Xiao An, what are you doing standing there? Do you have a headache?"
He Lianer put the water basin and waited for a while without hearing anything from Xiao An. He kept turning his head and asked softly.
"Um...yes, a little bit."
He Lian'er immediately became nervous when Xiao An admitted that she had a headache.
"I'll pour you a bowl of hot tea first. Maybe the alcohol is not over yet." He Lian'er added, and quickly poured the hot tea and brought it to the bedside.
Xiao Anxin took it absentmindedly, and took a few sips absentmindedly. From the beginning to the end, she didn't dare to look into He Lian'er's eyes.
He Lian'er stood beside the bed, feeling shy and nervous. Last night, she and her mother slept in the same room, and the mother and daughter chatted for most of the night.
In front of her mother, He Lianer also confessed her feelings.
Mother He sighed softly, feeling happy and sad at the same time.
Fortunately, Xiao An is a good man and reliable.
The sad thing is that He Qingsong is no longer here. There are no sons in this family. If there is a marriage proposal, whether to marry or not is a bit tricky.
So this morning He Lian'er came over to help Xiao An get up. It was at the request of He's mother to inquire about his plans for the next step.
But Xiao An's evasive attitude is completely different from the bold and wild man yesterday who took the wine jar and threw out a bold word before pouring wine.
The girl felt a little disappointed, her eyes were a little dazed, and her eyes turned red when her nose was sore.
But she bit her lip lightly and didn't ask or say anything. When Xiao An drank tea, she obediently twisted the handkerchief for him and handed it over.
From beginning to end, the two of them had no other communication.
Until Xiao An finished washing, he turned his back and tidied his clothes.
He Lian'er picked up the basin and walked out. When she reached the door, she paused for a moment, turned and whispered softly: "Breakfast is almost ready. Brother Xiao An, come over and eat after you finish it."
"Well, okay."
He nodded, still not looking back at her.
During the time when the two were alone together, He Lianer returned without success and felt disappointed.
Back in the kitchen, He's mother was waiting there. When she saw her coming in, she hurried up and asked, "How's it going? What did he tell you?"
He Lian'er smiled bitterly, lightly. Shaking his head lightly: "Brother Xiao An just woke up from a hangover. He is not in a good condition and his head still hurts. We didn't say anything else."
"That's it, you didn't mention it. Didn't he mention it even half a word? "He's mother didn't believe it and asked again.
He Lian'er nodded and started to prepare the dishes and chopsticks. Mother He was a little confused now, "What is going on? Yesterday he was very heroic. When he entered the door, he said that he was here to propose marriage."
"Is that all? "He Lian'er lowered her head and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, that's it."
He Lian'er's smile was a little forced, "Could it be that you are proposing marriage to someone else?"
Mother He was stunned for a moment, "How is that possible? Why would he drink so much wine to propose marriage to someone else? Besides, if he proposes marriage to someone else, then he is a matchmaker, and a matchmaker should have the way of a matchmaker, and he has to carry gifts. Come in and tell me and your father the conditions for the marriage proposal!"
He Lian'er thinks so.
Brother Xiao An most likely proposed marriage to him on his own.
She felt secretly sweet.
But when he thought of his cold and avoidant attitude just now, He Lian'er became uneasy again. This feeling of being unable to figure things out was really uncomfortable.
Breakfast was placed on the table. Master Qiao was out on business today. The people eating at the table were the three members of the He family, plus Xiao An.
Xiao An couldn't remember what he did or said yesterday, and was embarrassed to ask, so he sat there in strange silence.
When Father He and Mother He saw that he didn’t mention what happened yesterday, they just thought that he was impulsive after drinking yesterday. Maybe he regretted it after sleeping, so the old couple exchanged a few glances. , and they all made a tacit agreement not to mention what happened yesterday.
"Xiao An, eat more." Father He greeted.
"Well, Uncle He, you should eat more, you need to replenish your body now." Xiao An said.
Father He smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay."
The breakfast ended in such a strange atmosphere. After the meal, Xiao An hurriedly said goodbye.
"Lian'er, are you going back to the restaurant?" He thought for a moment and then turned back and asked.
He Lian'er glanced at her parents, He's mother smiled and said: "You make up your own mind, don't look at us."
He Lian'er thought for a moment and said to Xiao An : "Brother Xiao An, please go back first. I asked the master for leave when I came out. I will return to the restaurant in two days."
"Oh...that's it, okay then."
Xiao An left a little lonely.
When Xiao An left, He Lianer sat back on the chair, feeling a little exhausted.
The smile on He's mother's face also disappeared without a trace. She looked at He Lian'er who looked gloomy, and then turned her questioning eyes to He's father: "Dad Lian'er, what's going on with this Xiao An... What's going on? "
"I said it so boldly yesterday, but I didn't say a word about it this time. What does this mean? Isn't it outrageous to use it together to entertain Lian'er? "
Father He glared at Mother He, "Don't talk nonsense, Xiao An is not that kind of person."
"Not that kind of person, then why didn't you mention it today? Why didn't you give up yesterday's burden? Pick it up?" Mother He asked again.
He's father said: "He just woke up from a hangover. Maybe his head is still dizzy. He doesn't even know what's going on with him."
"You, don't worry yet. I'm going to blame him, and when he calms down, I'll find another opportunity for us to have a good talk."
Since He's father has said this, it's hard for He's mother to talk. What.
"Lian'er, go and clear away the dishes." Father He ordered He Lian'er again.
He Lian'er nodded. She knew that her father wanted to talk to her mother alone, so she sent her away.
