Chapter 25： maiden's home

After leaving the city, Pei Xiu told Zhou Cheng that she would pass by Dahe Village. She would go back to her parents' house first and let him go back first.

''I have nothing to do. Let's go with you. We'll be back together later. It's too late for you to be alone. '' The two of them were still clasping their fingers together.

At this time, there will be scattered pedestrians on the mountain road, and all the nearby villagers will go home after rushing to the market. If there are pedestrians, it is not easy for them to hold hands all the time, so Zhou Cheng withdraws directly. Pei Xiu didn't care, she was used to hugging and hugging on the street, but this was ancient after all, and husbands and wives kept their distance on the road.

Dahe Village is in the upper reaches of Xishan Village. The upstream of the river in the village is Dahe Village. It is also because of this river that this village is called Dahe Village. The river is wide and deep, and children often go to the river to play and fall into it. There are adults who can save them, but if they are unlucky and no one passes by, they will be drowned.

Pei Xiu and the others walked for half an hour, and when they saw the river from a distance, they knew it was coming.

This was the first time she went back to her parents' home after she wore it. The original owner was so close that she didn't return home until the New Year.

Knocked on the door: '' Big brother, big sister-in-law, are you home? ''

Pei Qing heard the voice and walked out of the door. Sister-in-law Pei was feeding the pigs and asked Pei Qing to open the door. She seemed to hear the voice of her sister-in-law, but she felt it was not real.

''Little aunt, uncle, you are here'', Pei Qing said in a bit of surprise, then turned his head and shouted inside: ''Mother, it's little aunt and little uncle here. ''

Sister-in-law Pei was a little surprised when she heard that it was her sister-in-law, she hurriedly poured all the pig food she had in her hand, and walked over while wiping her hands. '' Why did you come here at this time, go to the house for a meeting, and Pei Qing went and called your father back. '' Sister-in-law Pei also wondered in her heart, what happened at this time of year.

After Pei Xiu entered the house, he took four candied haws from the basket and gave them to Pei Qing, who asked him to share them with his younger brothers and sisters. Pei Qing blushed and said embarrassedly: ''My aunt is so expensive, take it back and give it to some cousins ​​to eat. Bar. ''

Pei Xiu smiled and said: '' Several cousins ​​have them, and this is yours. Take it, go and divide the brothers and sisters, one by one. ''

Pei Qing hesitated and looked at his mother. Sister-in-law Pei put aside the doubts just now, stepped forward and said, '' Pei Qing is so old, what candy haws are you eating, why are your hands getting looser and looser. ''

Pei Xiu said helplessly: ''I have something to say when I come here this time. It's not just to deliver candied haws. Don't push it. In my eyes, they are all children. ''

Pei Qing just took it, and happily turned around and went out to find a few younger siblings. She was only fifteen years old, and she was still a child, so of course she wanted to eat these.

When Pei Xiu saw that Pei Qing had gone out, she was relieved and said straight to the point, "I went to the town with Zhou Cheng to go to the market today. When buying meat, Butcher Zhang said that his son was seventeen and asked if there were any girls of the right age in my family. . I just said Pei Qing. You asked my elder brother to inquire if he is free recently. ''

Sister-in-law Pei was speechless, ''This...this...this is suitable, we don't deserve it, why are people looking for a country girl with such good conditions? Is there something wrong with them? '' Sister-in-law Pei said and became worried again.

''I saw him once when I was buying meat. His eldest son looked fine, and he was tall and big. I don't know why I asked about it, so I didn't know what to do, so I hurried over and asked my big brother to inquire. Don't miss this good thing if there's nothing wrong with it. '' Pei Xiu also said hesitantly, '' It's not a problem just to inquire, it's normal for a family to have women and a hundred families to ask. ''

Big Brother Pei heard Pei Qing say that Pei Xiu and his wife had come together, and he was worried that something was wrong, so he hurried back and looked at Pei Xiu's normal expressions and not in a hurry. He settled down and asked, ''What happened? ''

''Nothing happened'', Pei Xiu repeated what she just told her sister-in-law.

Brother Pei frowned and hesitated: ''This is not suitable, it is too high, if Pei Qing is bullied, we have no confidence to call the door, we village family, we should do our duty. ''

Pei Xiu thinks about it too. Brothers and sisters are honest people. If it happens, Pei Qing will marry a country girl and go to the city. If she is not confident enough, she will be bullied. I think so, '' Even if we don't agree with the big brother, we can inquire about his character, and if there is a flaw, it is better to refuse. It's also my fault that I told Pei Qing without asking clearly. ''

Sister-in-law Pei said comfortingly: ''It's normal that there are women in one family asking for help. I'll let your elder brother take the time to inquire. ''

Brother Pei nodded and said: '' Pei Qing is still young, let's explore slowly, people must be diligent and hardworking, and the parents at home must be kind, so you also help to pay attention. ''

Pei Xiu nodded, she was still a little impulsive today.

''After walking for so long, let's take a break and go back after dinner. '' Sister-in-law Pei said that she was about to go to the kitchen, and Pei Xiu grabbed Sister-in-law Pei's clothes and stood up and said, UU reading www. uukanshu. com’’ can’t be my sister-in-law, there are four children at home waiting for me to cook. ''

''That's fine, I won't keep you, I'll bring back some eggs and I'll get them for you. '' Pei Xiu didn't even hold her back. Get up and follow her,'' don't take it, sister-in-law, there are still chickens laying eggs in my house. ''

Sister-in-law Pei packed 20 eggs for Pei Xiu and said: "Take it, you are getting looser and looser now. There are still four children in the family, and the eggs you lay are not enough to eat. Carry them quickly and push them around. It will be broken in a while. ''

Pei Xiu could only accept it, feeling that her eldest brother and sister-in-law are really kind people.

Seeing that it was getting late, they went back first, and they had to cook for the family. They were not at home all day today, and they didn't know if the children were going crazy.

Passing by the big tree in the middle of the village, old men in twos and threes are smoking hookah. In recent years, the weather has been good, and those who are addicted to smoking at home will leave a small plot of tobacco to grow shredded tobacco for their own elderly people. He has sharp eyes and neat legs. It's been getting colder recently. Seeing that the first snow will fall soon, he didn't go anywhere. He saw Zhou Cheng and Pei Xiu walking with baskets and said, ""Zhou Cheng Ah, take your daughter-in-law to the market, why don't you bring a few children, can you take more out for a walk when you are so old? ''

Zhou Cheng looked at the uncles chatting under the big tree, and said blankly: ''There are too many children, so I can't bring them. ''

A few children go out to play after eating in the morning anyway, and they won't go home until dinner time, and it's almost the same when they come back to cook at this time.

Zhou Cheng is now a celebrity in the village, adopting the son of his savior. Recently, everyone was curious and wanted to say hello.

Pei Xiu didn't speak, and walked towards the house without slowing down.
