fisherman's evening

Chapter 12 What a coincidence

The next day, Lao Hai came to the door of Lao San's house early and knocked on the door.He forced Yu Lao San to wake up from his dream.Yu Lao San got up in a daze and opened the door for Lao Hai, shivering in the cold in his long johns.

"It's just dawn, but you are diligent." Yu Laosan complained.

Lao Hai smiled with his hands in his hands, and said, "Hehe, Tang Seng has to get up early to go out to learn Buddhist scriptures."

While talking, the two entered the house together.Yu Lao San simply tidied up the bedding, and took out a pot of eggs from under the bed.

Seeing Lao Hai's expectant look, Yu Laosan said, "Let's go to learn scriptures, we can't go empty-handed."

"San, I haven't eaten yet." Lao Hai said honestly, looking at the egg.

Hearing what Lao Hai said, Yu Lao San cursed secretly in his heart, so he got up and walked outside the house, saying as he walked, "It's indispensable."

After finishing speaking, he took out a handful of red-skinned eggs from yesterday's ashes, there were about seven or eight, and went back to the house, gave Lao Hai half a handful, and said, "Eat it, I've prepared it a long time ago."

Seeing this, Lao Hai stopped being polite, picked up an egg, knocked it on the edge of the mazza, and started eating.

After eating, the two set off.

The road from Yujiawa Village to Dongshan Village circles around the mountain.It is still the kind of dirt road that people stepped on step by step in the past.It's going to be a rainy or snowy day, and it's impossible to go on a single step.Lao Hai and Yu Lao San have walked this road a lot, and they know where to go and where to go.Prepared in advance.Slightly newer shoes to prevent slipping on stones on the road.Although they were only separated by a hill, the two of them walked this way for more than two hours.

"Oh! It's just about picking up Guangfa bicycles." Lao Hai sighed and sat on the big rock beside him.

"On this road, Guangfa goes to the town. If you waste time, you will waste time on this road. It's not easy to go by any car." Yu Laosan stopped and replied.

The two rested for about a quarter of an hour, and then set off again. From a distance, the rows of red brick and large tile houses in Dongshan Village were particularly conspicuous.

After another half an hour, the two stood on the main road of Dongshan Village. Looking at the most luxurious red brick house in Dongshan Village, they knew that it must be the house of Secretary Tian of Dongshan Village.So the two walked over together.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom

Lao Hai stepped forward and knocked on the thick elm door painted with turquoise paint, and shouted, "Is Secretary Tian at home?"

After a while, finding no movement, Lao Hai knocked on the door again, and shouted again.

"It seems that there is really no one." Lao Hai murmured in his heart, and then said to the third child: "Isn't this the home of their village secretary?"

Seeing this, Lao San greeted Lao Hai and said, "Go to the neighbors around and ask."

So Yu Lao San went to the house next door.Before the two of them reached the door of the house next door, an old woman came out from the house next door, and said to the two of them with a puzzled look, "Are you here to find Secretary Tian?"

"Ah, yes, ma'am, is this Secretary Tian's house?" Lao Hai pointed to the door he knocked on just now.

"Yes, I went out early in the morning."

"Ma'am, do you know where Secretary Tian has gone?"

"Probably went to Lingnan Village." The old woman thought for a while and said, "His child fell in love with a girl from Lingnan Village. She received a betrothal gift a while ago and set a date to get married the day after tomorrow."

The old woman took a breath, and then said: "I'm getting married the day after tomorrow. This is not going to the girl's house in Lingnan to get the dowry of the quilt and basin."

Lao Hai immediately understood that this child from Lao Tian's family was definitely the child named Tian Sheng who went to the village to quarrel with Yu Jun that day.

"Ma'am, is the doll in this family named Tian Sheng?" Yu Lao San asked eagerly.

"I don't know. This kid has been called Sheng Wa since he was a child. The only family in the village with the surname Tian is the one whose grandfather jumped in that year." The old woman said puzzled.

"Okay, then I understand, thank you, ma'am!" Yu Laosan expressed his thanks blankly.

After saying that, the two walked out of the village, and Lao Hai said as he walked, "This is really a bad luck."

Yu Lao San didn't think about any coincidences, he just thought about it, so he must not let Yu Jun know about it, if this kid comes here to make a fuss and offend Lao Tian's family when he is overjoyed, then it will be a big deal For favors, I guess Lao Tian's family will not help.

After thinking about it, Yu Laosan called Lao Hai to stop: "Lao Hai, please don't say anything about the marriage of Lao Tian's child, so as not to spread it to the ears of my second brother's kid."

"I understand, I understand." Lao Hai naturally knew what Yu Lao San was thinking.

"Today is too late, let's go back!" Yu Lao San looked back at the big tile-roofed house with a green door.
