Chapter 74 Affinity

After Shanzi left, Xu Xinger changed her usual clothes and finally relaxed after most of the day. She leaned on the kang and rested, holding a rattle in her hand and gently shook it, making a "ploping" sound, causing the lock and chestnuts to turn their heads and look at her, especially the lock, facing the square of the sound. He stretched out his arms, and his two small hands were still grasping in mid-air.

"Oh, are you trying to take the rattle?" Xu Xinger held the lock's little hand and asked him to grab the rod of the rattle drum. His palm wrapped his little hand and shook it left and right. The rattle drum made a cheerful sound again. The lock was so happy that his legs also pedaled around in the car and opened his toothless mouth. It seemed that he was grinning and smiling, but when he tilted his head a little drooled. The corners of his mouth flowed down.

Compason with the lock, the chestnut is much more honest. She lies steadily in the car. Although her eyes are staring at Xu Xinger, her body is motionless, and she hardly rotates her neck much, as if she is too lazy to exert any extra strength.

"These two little ones, one is active and the other is lazy. They look older since childhood. When the lock grows up, they must be a Tao boy. Chestnut is estimated to grow into a lazy girl." Xu Xinger looked at her sister-in-law's gradually round cheeks in the past few days. It seems that it has been very effective to make paste with fine rice recently. No matter how difficult it is, she can't lose two children. Otherwise, in case something goes wrong when she is a child, she will suffer for a lifetime.

"The boy is looking for some good things, and he will be smart when he grows up." Ye looked at the lock with an unconscious smile on his face.

Although she loves several children, the girl will eventually get married in the future, and her son is the one she will rely on in the future, so she can't help but look at Suoer with many expectations and hopes.

Xu Xinger naturally saw that Ye's eyes were no longer like the despair and pain before, but rekindled hope and suddenly felt much more at ease.

After Xu Laosan came back from the city, he went straight to work with a hoe. However, when he arrived at the ground, he found that the crops in his field had been served. A few days ago, the weeds that rushed up because of the rain were also cleaned, and the ridges and ditches were also passed through again. Everything was so well. Article.

"This is really..." Xu Laosan raised his hand and scratched the back of his head. He couldn't think of who would help like this. It must not be his brothers. Not to mention whether they would come to help, even if they really helped, it would not be so quietly. Everyone who had long shouted was known.

If it's not your own brother, is it possible that it's someone else in the village? After thinking about it, there is still no need to get it. It can't be anyone who admits the wrong job and does the wrong job, right?

Xu Laosan laughed at the thought of this. How could such a thing happen? But since the work in the field was finished, he carried a hoe and went home.

As soon as I walked out, I met Mr. Liu, who was next to his own land, and said, "Master Liu, are you still going to work in the field now?"

"The work at home has been done, and I can't be idle. At this time, the sun is not so strong. Come here for a walk to see if there is any work, otherwise I will not be tired in the end." Liu Laohan is a famous diligent person in the village, and his family is well-tidy.

"Grandpa, when you went to work today, who did you see to help my family work?" Xu Laosan asked with an inspiration.

The two families are next to each other, separated by a narrow and short earth tice, and there is nothing to cover it. If someone is working, it must be seen at a glance.

"I saw Brother Cheng weeding in your field." Uncle Liu said without thinking, "Why, didn't you ask him to help?"

"No, I just saw that the field was so clean up, and I was still puzzled!" Xu Laosan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard that it was Brother Cheng. Although the relationship between the two families is indeed very good, and Brother Cheng's family often helps his family, now it is not the time for farming. The field is just some odd jobs that are similar to do today or tomorrow, and it is not enough to specifically ask children to help work.

"Brother Cheng's child is very honest and diligent. Maybe he will come to help when he sees that your home hasn't been fixed for a few days." Liu Laohan himself is diligent. For those juniors who don't work every day, he will inevitably have some recis. At this point, he suddenly turned around and said, "In my opinion, Brother Cheng grew up with your apricot since childhood. Now he is not young, and he is almost old enough to talk about marriage. If both of you two families Interesting, do you need me to help you make a match?

Xu Laosan was stunned when he heard the words, and then said, "My Xing'er is only ten years old, and it's still a little early to mention this. Besides, Xing'er's girl has a bad temper, and it's not too late to wait for two years to be calm.

"To be honest, in fact, this matter is a letter leaked by Brother Cheng's mother who came home to talk to your aunt. I thought that she should also want to find someone to remind you." When Old Liu said this, he put down the hoe on his shoulder and put it under his hand. He said in a manner that he wanted to talk for a long time, "Xing'er's girl is indeed a little spicy, but she has to look at everything at both ends. She is also external, so it's not a bad thing, at least she won't be bullied, right?"

When Mr. Liu saw Xu Laosan's look, he seemed to listen to his words and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "Brother Cheng, you are also watching him grow up. He is an honest child. This kind of personality is not good or bad. His mother is just afraid that he will suffer losses in the future, thinking that there must be someone in the family who can take advantage in the future. Isn't the person with the idea?"

"In addition, Xing'er's mother is not in good health. Now there are still three small ones. I'm afraid that the days are very tight, and it will be difficult to get better for a while. If Xing'er's marriage is settled, the annual New Year's gifts will naturally be less than your family. There are four sets of seasonal clothes a year. Can't there be a lot left inside and outside? And in the future, when they get married, they will be door to door. Even if the young couple build a new house by themselves, they can't get out of this village. Xing'er can often go home to help take care of it. Where do you think they find such a good thing?

Old man Liu was just looking for a few reasons to persuade Xu Laosan. Now the more he said, the more he felt that it should be like this, and more he said more earnestly: "Brother Cheng's parents are both honest people. They have been neighbors with your family for so many years. His mother has always liked Xing'er. In the future, she will definitely not be able to cross the door. Neglect, the relationship between your two families has been good, but now with a relative, it's just the same as the family. Her family is such a little boy, and what benefits there will be in the future are all their young couple..."

In the end, Mr. Liu has simply believed from the bottom of his heart that Xing'er must be the daughter-in-law for Brother Cheng, and he has spoken to a young couple.

Xu Laosan also felt that there was some truth, but he was still clear in his heart that it was not a trivial matter, and he did not open his mouth and only nodded and said, "Mr. Liu, you are reasonable, but I have to go back to calculate this matter with my family."

Old Liu said to himself, such a big thing fell from the sky. Why don't you accept it quickly? What's the strength to go home? However, on second thought, the Xu family has not been separated yet. Xing'er still has the Yingzi of Xu's second family who didn't say anything about it. It really has to be discussed in the long way, so he nodded and said, "Well, it's right to go back and discuss it with your parents. Let's do it first. Let's talk about it later."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

While walking home, Xu Laosan thought in his heart that if this family could really be done, it would indeed be a good thing. He was not greedy for the New Year's etiquette or the four seasons clothes mentioned by Mr. Liu. Although it is said that the married daughter spilled water, if she can marry in front of her, it will be convenient to walk around with her mother's family in the future, and they can help each other if there is anything. In addition, Brother Cheng's family is also well-known, which is definitely better than getting married outside.

He was thinking about this. He had almost walked to the door of his house and felt that there seemed to be a figure swaying in front of him. He looked up and saw that it was Brother Cheng, stretching his head outside his staff and didn't know what he was doing.

"Come and find Xing'er? Why don't you go into the house!" Xu Laosan greeted him with a smile, only as if Brother Cheng knew that his family was going to marry Xing'er, but now the boy knew that he was ashamed.

"Xu, Uncle Xu..." Brother Cheng has actually been wandering at the door for a long time, but he can't afford the courage to go in. Xing'er trusts herself so much and the job entrusted to herself is so simple that she can't even do this little thing well, but he has betrayed her...

The more Brother Cheng thought about it, the more he felt that he was wrong. He stood in front of Xu Laosan and pouted his eyes red.

"What on earth is this song?" Xu Laosan couldn't understand it more and more, and he really couldn't figure out what the children were thinking now, so he had to ask, "Brother Cheng, did you go to my field to help work today?"

Brother Cheng nodded randomly when he heard the words, and still remembered that he had no face to see Xu Xinger again. He didn't want to be pulled into the room by Xu Laosan and said, "Don't go home for dinner tonight. Let your aunt cook delicious food for you."

He was dragged into the room under his feet, and half of the door curtain in the room brushed his cheek. Then Brother Cheng began to push and refuse. He shrank back desperately and refused to enter the house with his feet against the threshold.

"Her father, what are you doing?" Ye sat on the kang. Because of the angle problem and the cover of the door curtain, he couldn't see what was tearing at the door and asked in a loud voice.

The back door creaked, and Xu Xinger pushed the door in, holding a chicken dustpan in her hand. Seeing the two people like this, she couldn't help laughing: "Dad, why are you like robbing a people's daughter?"

Hearing Xu Xinger's voice, Brother Cheng's whole body froze.
