Several village wives talked about it one after another. Yang Kexin, the daughter-in-law, was a favorite of many people. They wanted to wait for Aunt Yang's illness to get better, so that they could propose marriage. They didn't expect that the people from Hedong Village came so fast that they got the first chance.
"Well, if there's a more suitable one in another village, why don't you marry? See, that handsome guy looks pretty. I saw him last time. He's a good match for Yang Kexin. "
"It seems that Aunt Yang has long been in love with us. We don't have any drama."
"Why not? There will be wedding wine in our village soon. "
Hu village is sparsely populated, with only dozens of families, but the villagers are united and friendly.
If a family marries a daughter or a daughter-in-law, they invite the whole village to have a wedding party, which makes the villagers excited.
The bride price is given, and the wedding day is set at the eighth day of August. Next, the Yang family will be busy. They have to prepare the dowry and the banquet. The mother and daughter have to embroider the wedding dress and play the quilt. In a word, there are a lot of things.
"Aunt Yang, let's go first. After a month, Xue Yang comes to pick up the bride." Zhang Man'er said with a smile. His face was full of joy.
When she was about to get on the ox cart, Yang Kexin stopped her: "sister Man'er, can you leave later? I have something to tell you
The sun is warm, the breeze blows, the lake rippled, occasionally there are Osprey take-off, floating in the distance lotus fragrance, green leaves swaying, a pair of Jiangnan Water flavor.
Zhang Man'er nodded and said to the people on the cart, "go back first."
Yang Kexin must have something to whisper to her. She naturally wants to listen to the girl's mind.
Xue Chuan also understood: "Man'er, let's go first. I'll pick you up later."
"Good." After Zhang Man'er agreed with them, he waved to them and was led by Yang Kexin to a boat by the lake.
The golden sun was shining on the lake.
After seeing her sit down, Yang Kexin supported the bamboo pole and rowed the boat to the middle of the lake full of lotus.
Along the way, I saw a lot of villagers fishing. With the surging of the boats, the water was rippled.
When the villagers saw the small boat and saw that it was the daughter of the Yang family, they said with a smile, "well, do you take the guests to the lake?"
Yang Kexin nodded and waved to the fishing aunts and uncles.
"Oh, there's a fresh face. Look, this girl is so beautiful."
"It's like the sister-in-law of Yang's daughter."
"What, the daughter of the Yang family is getting married." There is an aunt open mouth, staring at the ship drifting away, surprised asked.
"You don't know. Just an hour ago, a happy event came from Lao Yang's family. The people of Hedong Village came to propose marriage in person and brought a lot of betrothal gifts. Our village is ready to get married. I don't know how many people's hearts will be broken by the engagement. " The fisherman said to his wife.
"It's a good thing. It's not the guy who came back to Hucun last year. I still remember his appearance. He's tall and straight. He looks handsome. He laughs like a ray of sunshine and looks energetic."
"Well, it should be. You can't stop it when you say the marriage is coming. But the girl is going to get married."
Yang Kexin, holding a bamboo pole, rowed a small boat. When he passed these lakes, he heard his uncles and aunts talking about it. His face was red with shame, and he rowed the boat deep into the lotus.
Rippling lake water, set off a circle of ripples, this small wooden boat rowed into the lotus, from all around the boat was crowded with lotus leaves, slowed down the speed.
They will be in the center of the lake and can see the whole village. These thatched houses and bamboo houses are scattered along the lake.
The village is big, the farmhouse is few, appears broad and quiet, each family's courtyard is specially big, has raises the chicken, raises the pig.
There are some fruit trees in the fence yard.
The lake village is really beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, and the colors change all the year round. They are all beautiful pictures.
Living in this carefree village is a kind of happiness.
There are peach blossom in spring, lotus in summer, maple leaf in autumn and plum blossom in winter.
Every season, Lake Village is showing its charm to the villagers.
Zhang Man'er was lying on the deck, smelling the fragrance of lotus and feeling surrounded by lotus leaves. He felt fresh and happy, as if he had become a lotus, with the sound of running water in his ear, natural and beautiful.
Yang Kexin looked at her face to enjoy the appearance, know to bring her to the right place.
She put away the bamboo pole, straightened her skirt, sat beside her, turned her black eyes and asked curiously, "sister Man'er, do you want to sleep?"
Sunshine on the face is very lazy, breeze slowly blowing, smell the lotus fragrance to sleep, is also a beautiful thing.
When he didn't set up a stall in the town before, Yang Kexin had a lot of leisure time. Besides taking care of his mother, he spent the rest of his time grinding Rouge powder.
At the end of June, when the lotus blooms luxuriantly, she will also go into the depths of the lotus, sleep with the sun, and talk to these jumping fish.
But now that they are engaged, this kind of leisure time is hard to have.
But the new life, also let her yearn for.
"I don't want to sleep. I'm very comfortable. Can't you tell me that you've left me here specially. I'm waiting for you to say something in secret? " Zhang Man'er looked at her face full of rosy clouds and joked with a smile.
Yang Ke thought that since he had decided to marry Xue Yang, he wanted to know more about the Xue family. He bit his lip and asked, "sister Man'er, I've entered the Xue family. Please take more care of me."
Zhang Man'er, looking at her eagerness to integrate into the Xue family, couldn't help laughing. She felt a fishing rod from her side and became interested.
I see fish swimming here from time to time. Maybe I can catch fish?
She got up and looked for it. She found the earthworm in a small jar. After hooking it, she pulled the fishing line down into the water and talked to her while waiting quietly.
Afraid of disturbing the fish, their voices were very low. They whispered together: "don't worry, take care. That's for sure. Let me tell you something about the Xue family."
Yang Kexin nodded and counted. She had seen most of the people in Xue family: "sister Man'er, I seem to have seen a lot of people in Xue family. You two couples, elder sister and a Li Chunxiang..."
"It seems needless to say, you all know that Li Chunxiang, the second sister-in-law, who encouraged fat girl to smash your stall last time, is tough and unreasonable. She will stay away from her in the Xue family."
Zhang Man'er said as he saw the movement in the lake, he made the sound lighter and softer.
"Well, sister Man'er, I know. Anyway, I'm living with Xue Yang. I just don't provoke her."
"You." Zhang Man'er smiles and points the tip of her nose.
