Especially during a flood in a certain year, they jumped into the rolling flood hand in hand and used their bodies to form human walls...
"You must have scratched your skin, right? I'll get you some ointment to apply later, which will help you recover faster," she added.
Xiao An smiled, with a dark face and neat white teeth.
"Sister, I know you say disgusting words in your mouth, but you still love me in your heart."
"Hey, it doesn't hurt. If it continues to be dark like this, I'm afraid Xiaolian will dislike you and not want you!"
Xiao An scratched the back of his head, probably blushing.
But because his face was so dark, it became his protective color.
"It stands to reason...it won't happen, right?" Xiao An said.
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "What? Could it be that you haven't even visited your father-in-law's house since you came back from fighting the flood?"
Xiao An said: "I'm going. She's not at home, so I didn't stay too long. She delivered the things to me and left."
"That's why I didn't see it." Yang Ruoqing said.
Xiao An nodded.
"Then what are you bringing to your father-in-law's house? Is his house flooded?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Xiao An said: "It didn't flood over there, but the surrounding area was flooded. I'll send some daily necessities."
Yang Ruoqing nodded. Xiao An and He Lian'er's wedding date was revised again and was determined to be in the twelfth lunar month.
The twelfth lunar month is approaching the end of the year, because that's when Xiaoan's military department has a holiday.
The main reason is that he wants to wait for Da'an and the others to come back from the capital. For his younger brother's marriage, his brother must be there for it to be perfect.
"Sister, I came back here because of two things." Xiao An took a deep breath and said again.
"Oh? Do you want me to guess?" Yang Ruoqing asked with a smile.
Xiao An nodded.
Yang Ruoqing tilted her head and thought for a moment, "The first thing is, is it because you don't worry about your family and come back specifically to have a look?"
Xiao An nodded.
Yang Ruoqing intuitively felt that the first incident was not the most important one.
This kid's evasive eyes and coy look don't match his usual tough-minded image.
So, the second thing should be...
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is next month. Do you want to come back and discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival with your parents? Do you want our parents to go to He's house?"
When Yang Ruoqing got straight to the point and asked this question, Xiao An's breathing visibly quickened.
Then he took a deep breath and forced down the nervous emotion.
"Sister, what you said is so direct, I, I'm a little embarrassed!" Xiao An said.
Yang Ruoqing was happy, "It's time for men to get married and women to get married. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
"Besides, the fact that you are thinking about this matter and want to take the initiative to advocate for it shows that you have grown up and treat marriage as a major event in life. This is right!"
"Sister, don't be so direct, I'm sorry."
Xiao An lowered his hands, feeling very embarrassed.
Yang Ruoqing chuckled and patted his shoulder with one hand.
"You silly boy, what's so embarrassing about this? My sister is very happy for you!"
The brat who has never put his mind on these things can actually find time to focus on this, which shows that this brat is really satisfied with this marriage.
In this era where blind marriages are common, it is rare to have the marriage of your choice and marry the partner you like.
"Go back and tell your parents that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, let them bring gifts and sit at He's house. Is that what you mean?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Xiao An nodded.
"I'm just afraid that it will be too tiring for my parents, traveling so much back and forth..." he said.
If He Lian'er married directly to Changping Village, then the man would have to use a matchmaker to send a big gift to the woman during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Just like the Li Wei family does to the embroidery family, they always give big gifts during the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.
Of course, He Lian'er and Xiao An had a new relationship and were getting married, so there was no such thing as a man giving a big gift to a woman.
But out of etiquette, it is also necessary for the man's parents to visit the woman's house during the holidays, and for the elders of both parties to sit down and have a meal together.
It represents the importance that the elders of both parties attach to their children's marriage.
"Don't worry, even if the He family is in the capital, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, as long as you need it, our parents will be happy to go."
Hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Xiao An felt much more at ease, and at the same time she was also warm and moved.
"Sister, when you say this, does it mean that one day when Dazhi and Chen'er meet the girl they like, you and my brother-in-law will travel thousands of miles to meet the in-laws?"
After feeling relaxed, Xiao An actually started teasing Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing squinted her eyes, as if she was imagining that scene.
Then he said without hesitation: "That's necessary. Even if we are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, as long as it is the girl that the two brothers like, your brother-in-law and I will definitely go and see her."
"However, deep down in my heart, I hope that the distance between my parents-in-law will not be too far, but these two children have never been close to us. Will the girl I meet in the future be close to us? Hey, she must be a daughter-in-law who lives far away! "
Anyway, no matter whether the road is long or short, it is fate.
The siblings didn't chat for long before Yang Yongjin and the others came over and asked Xiao An to come over and play cards together.
This is a game between men, especially at family gatherings. It is the best way to pass the time.
Xiao An usually comes back rarely and rarely participates in this kind of game.
He would rather watch from the sidelines, or help his uncles and brothers fill tea and water for them to play cards, rather than playing on the court himself.
On the one hand, it's because he is interested in dancing with swords and sticks, and on the other hand, it's because he doesn't like this kind of gambling game.
"Second brother, you can play cards, I won't participate..."
"Your fourth uncle said that you must have said that. We don't have enough people. Your father and fifth uncle didn't fight. It was originally agreed that Dabao would be one, but Guiling temporarily called him to take care of the children. Sanque I can only find you to join in."
Seeing that Xiao An was still a little hesitant, Yang Yongjin came up and said, "Come here and join us. When Dabao comes, you can give up your seat to him, okay? We don't bet money today. Whoever loses will put a sticker on his face." ,come quickly!"
In this case, Xiao An is also willing to go to Adult Beauty to play a few rounds with them.
Yang Ruoqing also said: "Xiao An, my second brother has said this. If you have nothing else to do, just go and play."
Xiao An nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then sister, let's go and sit for a while."
Xiao An was pulled into the main room by Yang Yongjin, while Yang Ruoqing walked around to the kitchen with a big belly.
Autumn has entered at this time, the sun is still shining brightly during the day, and there is a slight coolness in the morning and evening.
It was broad daylight like today, but when it was approaching noon, the sky suddenly became overcast, the sun disappeared, and the wind picked up.
So there was a slight chill, especially when I saw the wind blowing up the fallen leaves in the yard, the branches swaying in the wind, and every time a lot of fallen leaves swayed, I felt a touch of loneliness for no reason.
The days were obviously satisfying, but the autumn scene still made me feel a little sad for no reason.
No wonder those literati in the past liked to lament spring and autumn. It seems that the changing of the four seasons in nature can really bring some emotional relief to people.
