The scenery of the North is covered in ice and snow for thousands of miles.
Looking at the vast land, there is nothing left but vastness.
In this icy and snowy evening, I saw a white shadow floating past suddenly. If I didn't distinguish it carefully, I would have thought it was an hallucination.
However, after a brief pause, the white shadow ran towards the small village not far away.
This is a very remote fishing village in the countryside. It is full of money and there are only about ten households in the whole village. On weekdays, there is little hustle and bustle here, but now it is an exception.
Because today is China’s first traditional festival—New Year’s Eve!
The Chinese New Year is quite special.
Let’s put it this way!
Whether they are dignitaries or ordinary people, they will stop what they are doing today and gather at home to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new year.
Naturally, this small fishing village is no exception.
Although they are not as particular as the people in the city, they also hang paper lanterns in front of their gates to create a festive atmosphere.
Among the many lanterns, there is a pair of very beautiful lotus lanterns, which are so expressive in their production that they almost look fake.
Gee, whose daughter is so ingenious and has such craftsmanship?
The answer will be revealed soon.
I just heard an old man returning home from a foreign country stroking his beard and saying: "The daughter of the old Nie family is not only handsome in appearance and kind-hearted, but also outstanding in her craftsmanship. At home and abroad, what kind of needlework is not outstanding?"
After that, he sighed with regret: "After this year, this little girl will be eighteen years old. I don't know which family's stupid boy can get such a blessing and marry such a lovely person like her." Son……"
He does not mean that.
The white figure hiding in the dark immediately trembled when he heard this, seemingly a little surprised.
Take a closer look, who is it if it’s not Qi Xiaotong?
She smiled bitterly and sighed, then floated into the courtyard.
According to the information she got, a man suspected of being Hong Tao was rescued by a fisherman family in this small village. As for Yin Jun, there is still no news at present, and there is no trace of him.
After much inquiring and searching, she finally found this remote corner.
In addition to the above good news, there was also a piece of gossip that made her unhappy.
He said that the people who rescued him were a father and daughter who made a living by chasing the sea.
The father's name is Nie Xishan, an old fisherman born and raised in the local area; his daughter is called Nie Qinglian, but she is a well-known Shui Ling girl from all over the country.
The latter, in particular, is famous for his simplicity, kindness and diligent housekeeping.
In the eyes of the villagers, Lao Nie's life was really good, and he actually raised such a beautiful girl who was impeccable.
However, every family has sutras that are difficult to recite, but the person involved does not think so.
Nie Xishan felt that his life was already at the bottom of the hierarchy. Losing a wife in middle age or losing a son in old age is the worst of all misfortunes.
The only comfort is that I can spend the rest of my life with my young daughter.
If we can recruit a strong and capable old-age son-in-law, that will be the real success.
Yes, it was this sentence that made Qi Xiaotong feel the potential crisis.
However, she is still very confident in her personal capital.
In terms of appearance, she is definitely not an ugly girl; in terms of ability, she is able to look down on the world's heroes; and in terms of status, she is a dignified Shaobao daughter and the then president of Great China.
In every aspect, I am top-notch, how could I lose to this country girl?
It can be seen that before the truth of the matter was verified, Qi Xiaotong engaged in a hysterical ideological struggle.
Whether the rescued man is Hong Tao or not will be revealed immediately.
With a pounding feeling of uneasiness, Qi Xiaotong leaned forward.
After stopping, she skillfully punctured the window paper and stared into the house.
But he saw that there were three people in the room.
One of them is a middle-aged man, his face is full of vicissitudes of life, and at this time, he is squatting next to the stove stewing fish with a smile on his face.
The second one is a simple girl, her appearance is dignified and beautiful, and her temperament is more natural. She feels like a piece of jade gifted from heaven, without any sense of disobedience.
She was wrapping dumplings with a shy look on her face, but her eyes were peeking at the young man opposite.
The man had an extraordinary appearance and bright eyes, but his complexion was a little haggard, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
Looking at his facial features, it was clear that he was Hong Tao, who had disappeared for a long time and was looking for him in vain.
ah……
He is indeed still alive in the world!
Thank God, Lord Buddha!
Qi Xiaotong couldn't help but sigh up to the sky, feeling that his heart finally began to feel at ease.
But the next second, a strong sense of sourness came to my mind: the woman's eyes when she looked at him were gentle and sweet, full of undisguised admiration inside and outside.
Since they are both women, Qi Xiaotong naturally sees it in his eyes and understands it in his heart.
Today's Hong Tao is no longer the Amon of the past. He exudes a detached temperament every time he raises his hands or stamps his feet. It is completely reasonable for little girls to be attracted to him.
However, looking at the old man's face, he completely acquiesced to this matter, which would be a bit embarrassing.
You said, you said, where does this put me?
Qi Xiaotong couldn't help but snorted secretly, and at the same time, a very rare sharp and fierce light burst out in his eyes.
While her anger was hard to suppress, she suddenly felt her father's words ringing in her ears: Don't do evil because it's small, don't neglect doing good because it's small, and put the people first in everything...
well……
With this sigh, she relaxed her clenched fists.
This matter really has nothing to do with the father and daughter. The key depends on what Hong Tao thinks.
He was engaged to himself first, and whether he wanted to be someone like Chen Shimei or not was a matter of uncertainty.
Faced with temptation, how will he choose?
This matter is the core that should be focused on.
In this case, let yourself take a good look at him and see if he can stick to it until the end.
Just as I was letting my thoughts wander, I suddenly heard the beauty say leisurely: "Brother Hong Tao, I made you a new cotton-padded jacket made of good fabrics. Do you want to... try it now? Ah... I mean, this is the Chinese New Year. Yes, you can’t dress in such rags, right?”
Hong Tao was still sitting upright, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much, Sister Qinglian, for your kindness. In this case, Brother Yu is being disrespected."
Um?
It's brother Hong Tao again, and it's sister Qinglian. What does this mean of being intimate with each other?
Qi Xiaotong bit her silver teeth, and the jealousy in her heart that had just faded was suddenly overturned.
