Tuesday Ya picked him up and slapped him twice on the butt without mercy, "Don't make trouble! If you make trouble again, your father will beat you!"
Zheng Xichun held back.
After holding back until the two government officials left, he rushed out of the kitchen and bumped into his father, "Dad, you can't marry my sister to such a person. My sister married an old man, so what dignity do I have!"
Zheng Linsheng pulled him in front of him and said, "What do you know, kid? Others think that your brother-in-law is from the government office. Who else will dare to mess with you in the future? Don't mention how much face you have when you walk out."
Zhou Yaya had some disapproval on her face and called her man into the back room.
"That man is too old, almost the same age as you. Xidong will definitely not be willing to do it, so he might as well go back."
Zheng Jiasheng sighed, "The age difference is a bit big, but we are from the yamen after all. What Lin Sheng said makes sense. After all, we moved here from somewhere else. We have no foundation here. If we can find someone reliable, we will be able to do it in the future." No one will bully us.”
Tuesday Ya said: "Everyone in Beishan County has moved here and has no foundation. We live a good life, who will bully us?"
Zheng Jiasheng sighed again, "Originally, Lin Sheng was not guaranteed to be a matchmaker, so nothing happened, but now we have made an agreement with the people above. I think the poor man also likes Xidong. If we go back, he will not be able to live up to his reputation." , it will inevitably embarrass us
Our family came here just to live a down-to-earth life. ”
"Look what your brother has done. What does he think? He is so different in age and still wants to match up?"
Zheng Jiasheng obviously didn't want to hear such words, "Lin Sheng also means well."
"Is he kind?" Tuesday Ya took a deep breath. It seemed that she had a lot to say, but she expected that even if she said it, it would be useless. She swallowed this cowardly anger and asked, "What should we do now?" ? Isn’t this bringing trouble? ”
Lin Jiasheng sat on the bed and thought for a while, "Xidong is young now, so there's nothing he likes or dislikes about him. In fact, it's not a bad thing for a man to be older. Older people know how to love others. Besides, that poor man doesn't care in front of the county magistrate. It's fair to say that if Xidong really marries him, his face will be bright in the future."
Tuesday Ya seemed to be persuaded, "Then you have to be willing to do it yourself."
"Please advise the child, she doesn't understand anything at such a young age."
Separated by a wall, Zheng Xichun was also persuaded by Zheng Linsheng, and his attitude changed from resistance to expectation at the beginning. He came to Zheng Xidong and asked, "Sister, when are you getting married? If you get married as soon as possible, I can ask my brother-in-law to come to the school to marry me." Keep up your face.”
Before Zheng Xidong could react, her mother walked out of the back room and said, "Why are you still standing? Go and change out of your clothes. I'll return them to the next door."
Zheng Xidong felt that more than just his clothes were taken off from his body.
She didn't know what she would become after living for more than ten years. It’s not a human being anyway, at least it shouldn’t be treated like this.
"Mom, will you listen to my uncle this time?" Zheng Xidong asked Zhou Yaya in tears.
Zhou Yazheng paused while folding clothes, then turned around and wiped away her daughter's tears, "Xidong, you are still young. There are many things you don't understand. Your uncle will not harm you, and your parents will not harm you. Don't It seems that the man is old, but he is from the yamen after all.
Without your brother-in-law's connections, how could our family have a relationship with someone like that? ”
Zheng Xidong pushed away the person in front of him and wiped his face randomly, "My aunt and my aunt's children were sold by him, and now he is going to sell me."
Tuesday Ya patted her gently, stretched out her head and looked outside. She was relieved when she saw that Zheng Linsheng didn't pay attention to the sound inside, "Don't talk nonsense." Her voice was low, "What do you know? It's an adult's business Don’t worry about it.”
"I don't want to interfere with your business." Zheng Xidong collapsed, "I just want you to let me go."
"Why don't you let it go? If you keep saying that, my mother will not be happy to care about you anymore."
"Are you upset? You want to marry me to such a person, and I didn't agree happily. Are you still upset?" Zheng Xidong said as he stepped back, and when he reached the door, he shouted loudly: "Then Aren’t you happy?”
After saying that, she ran out of the house.
Outside, Zheng Linsheng was scolding Zheng Xichun, who was rolling around in his arms, "I'll leave a chicken neck for you. Children can eat chicken legs."
Suddenly he saw Zheng Xidong running out of the house. He ignored Zheng Xichun at the moment and pulled Zhou Yaya over and asked nervously, "What's wrong? Why did she run away?"
"This child ran away without saying anything to her. It's really..." The anxiety in Zhou Ya's eyes was not fake.
But the reasons for her anxiety are too complicated. Who can tell which strand of love is among the entangled emotions? Others couldn't tell the difference, and she couldn't tell the difference either.
Zheng Linsheng shouted: "Why are you still standing there? Go after it! Find it!"
Zheng Xidong ran into the dark night, but felt that he was coming back to life little by little.
She did not run in the familiar direction. After stopping, she noticed the dark wilderness around her. At this moment, she did not have any fear in her heart, but felt extremely happy. (End of chapter)
