BMW.
Fragrant car.
beauty.
"careful."
Li You held her arm and reminded her gently.
A cinnamon branch protruded from a low courtyard wall and almost scratched her face.
The warmth spreads bit by bit through the layers of fabric.
She came back to her senses, looked at the hand that was still holding her arm, thought about it again and again, and finally said: "He and I used to..."
"If you mind, our family will refund the gift money to you."
"I know you have difficulties."
He looked at her with serious eyes: "No one is perfect, including me."
Shen Yinxiao was stunned.
He let go of his hand and took half a step back.
Unlike when he was with Wei Cheng, he was always as hot as fire, burning quickly and extinguishing quickly.
"Last time I heard from my aunt that you like to eat homemade glutinous rice sausage. My mother has nothing to do at home. She made a few strings and I will give them to you."
He said he only drank a few skewers, but ended up giving her more than a dozen skewers.
She hung up more than a dozen skewers of glutinous rice sausage.
When cooking every day, steam a few slices and fry them in a pan, then add them to the pasta and cook them or fry them until crispy and eat them directly as a side dish with rice.
Every time she eats the fragrant and soft glutinous rice sausage, Shen's mother can't help but talk about it.
"That kid has a heart, and his wife is not bad. Yin Xiao won't suffer if she marries him."
"My family background is average." Father Shen lowered his eyes, "But it's worthy."
Shen Yinxiao took a breath, feeling a little irritated.
Whenever she hears her parents talk about her marriage, it always feels like listening to butcher Zhang, who sells meat on the street, bargaining with his customers.
She deliberately changed the subject: "I'm afraid it's going to rain later, dad, please don't go out."
"The pigs are hungry. They have to go even if it rains. It's okay." Father Shen went to get the bamboo hat hanging on the wall, shook it, and a layer of dust fell.
"Don't go." She frowned.
"must go."
"I bought eight piglets and a big sow. I have to go and see them."
"It's not like I don't make money, why would I raise pigs?"
"You are going to get married too."
Father Shen and Mother Shen waved to her, motioning for her to come in, then turned and closed the courtyard door.
The sky was covered with clouds, and the girl looked at the somewhat rickety couple helping them out.
The bowl was immersed in the pot, a small fire was burning on the stove, the water in the pot was steaming, and a layer of vegetable oil floated on the water.
The tip of my nose smells greasy.
After washing the dishes, it was completely dark at noon, thick clouds covered the sky and the sun, there was no one on the street, and the wind blew the windows open and closed.
"Pah - pah -"
The candlelight in the store was blown on and off. She was startled, got up and closed the window. As soon as she closed the window, the candlelight suddenly went out.
The store was completely dark.
She got up to look for Huozhezi again.
My heart was pounding, and I was panicking for no reason.
Otherwise, just close the door.
There's no one around today anyway.
I don’t know if my parents are back or not.
Feed the pigs.
We have to go to the mountains to cut pigweed first.
Have you finished cutting?
I'm afraid it's impossible to cut the color of the sky.
They were all told not to go, but if they had to go, I didn’t know what they were doing.
I felt angry and irritated again.
She stared blankly at the gloomy sky outside.
The two of us went together, so we should be fine.
Li You was still at the government office. He came to open the door for her today before going to the government office. She remembered that he didn't bring an umbrella or a raincoat.
After much hesitation, she closed the door, took an umbrella and rode her donkey to the government office.
Before he reached the door of the government office, he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Uncle Zhang." She held an umbrella and stood under the rose flowers at the door of the Yamen Office. Raindrops pattered on the oil-paper umbrella.
Butcher Zhang was out of breath as he ran: "Yinxiao, are your parents back?"
Her heart sank: "What's wrong?"
"Those pigs raised by your father escaped and trampled a large piece of land. The big one also ate several chickens raised by others. The key is that I didn't see any of your parents this time. , it’s okay to lose money, as long as nothing happens to anyone.”
The umbrella in her hand fell to the ground with a bang, and she turned around and walked back.
Butcher Zhang stopped her: "Where are you going?"
"I'll go find them."
"What are you looking for from a girl's house?" Butcher Zhang knew about her relationship with Li You.
Today is different from the past. There is a man in the family. After the betrothal gift, it is almost time to leave. If something happens, of course you have to find a man.
She was embarrassed because she was afraid that she would have to pay a lot of money for what happened today.
What does he think when he comes to Li You now?
"There are many people who come to settle accounts, and they all come to your father."
"It's almost a hundred taels."
Her heart was half cold.
"I'll go find my parents first."
"That's right, go find them first. Don't fall down on the mountain in this heavy rain." Butcher Zhang wiped the rain off his face and nodded.
As soon as she said this, her heart sank a little more.
Fortunately, Father Shen and Mother Shen were fine, which was a blessing in misfortune.
Father Shen and Mother Shen's lower body were covered with mud and water, and they were helping them walk back.
The running pigs were caught again, and the broken earth wall was repaired by kind-hearted neighbors, but compensation was not that easy to talk about.
She listened roughly and found that it would cost at least one hundred and twenty taels of silver.
Compensate farmers for their lost farmland and compensate for their eaten chickens and ducks.
There is even more terrible news.
Two little piglets were sick with swine fever. The family whose chickens and ducks were eaten yelled at them to pay an extra twenty taels of silver. The master had swine fever and gave them their livestock.
Too much.
She touched the purse in her arms, and there was still some under the pillow at home.
One hundred and twenty taels.
Her vision went dark.
What if dad gets sick again?
Wei Cheng won't care.
She decided to completely separate from him.
As for Li You, he might break off the engagement.
Now her family is in big trouble.
Father Shen sat in the hall, dejected.
Mother Shen sobbed and wiped away tears: "I'll borrow some from the neighbors."
"Don't you have some relatives in Bingzhou? I'll write to you and see if I can borrow some from our house..."
