Escape from the desert

Chapter 213 A widow is actually in demand
In the scorching sun, Shangguan Zixuan was wearing a patched bunt, the top of his shirt was slightly open, and a belt of an invisible color was tied around his waist, which restrained his swollen belly.

He grinned wide, looked at his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, cried, and plunged into Shangguan Mingzhi's arms.

Shangguan Mingzhi held the young boy in his arms stiffly, and couldn't believe it for a moment, his silly son who was rosy in white, round and fat, was now tanned to the color of pig liver, and only his big white teeth were left to shine brightly in the sun. flashing eyes.

"Xuan'er?"

"Yeah! It's me, Dad! Why don't you recognize me after only a few months?" Shangguan Zixuan panicked, remembering what the two women said just now, and immediately broke free from his arms.

With a bit of anger and disbelief, he shouted: "Are you really not going to want me?"

At the end he added: "Then can you send me to Aunt Jiang's house?"

Shangguan Mingzhi: "..."

Well, it is indeed his silly son, there is no doubt about it!
Jiang Yan was amused by the little fat man's last words. The family was busy during this time, and Shangguan Zixuan and Wangcai liked to play with Xiaodouzi, either climbing trees in the mountains to dig out bird eggs, or cutting pigs in the fields Cao Dou Cricket, even if he is studying at home, is sitting in the yard with a group of children in the village.

There are many children in the family, and they are together every day, so Jiang Yan didn't notice that the once white and tender little fat man now has tanned skin and has lost a lot of weight, and he is wearing patched sackcloth. It is no different from the children in the mountain village.

"Fatty is more active. It may be because he hasn't been exposed to the sun much before. In the past few months, he has been exposed to the sun and his complexion has turned darker. It will be fine after going back to raise it for a few days." Jiang Yan suppressed the smile on her lips.

Shangguan Mingzhi nodded. Although his son was darker, he was obviously much healthier than before. He used to yell that he was tired after walking a few steps, but now he can not only run and jump, but also looks more energetic and refreshed.

And if you take a closer look, Shangguan Zixuan's facial features are more obvious after losing weight, and his face is much more handsome. Looking at it this way, he looks more like a father and son with Shangguan Mingzhi.

Before the father and son could catch up, a few more people came in from outside the door, and the leader was actually Sister Mei who had been a matchmaker before, but this time it was not her little niece, but a man dressed in fine clothes and full of luxury. middle-aged man.

Elder Sister Mei was still dressed as before, she wore a festive red coat, she was wearing a festive red coat, she walked into the yard step by step, waving a handkerchief and twisting her fat waist.

"It's better to come early than coincidentally. Who would have thought that Liangjiu would be held in your village today. Aunt Jiang, this time is not as good as before. Last time it was your wretched old lady who found you an unsuitable widower. This time I will introduce you to the landlord of Luojia Village."

Sister Mei's smile trembled wildly, and even the makeup on her face couldn't hide the creases on her face. The middle-aged man beside him was pushed by him, and immediately straightened his back and stood even more straight.

The man shyly said with a bit of shyness: "I Luo Youcai, I heard that there is a widow in Lin Family Village, Aunt Jiang. Although I have never seen it, I heard that she is very capable. A woman is in charge of a large family, so I am very happy. Now that we meet, I am more sure about the idea of ​​getting married."

As he said that, he squinted at Jiang Yan shyly with his soybean-sized eyes, and his tone was greasy and shy. He thought Aunt Jiang was an old aunt, if it weren't for the fact that the other party built a house and a factory and had business dealings with restaurants. , he naturally wouldn't find someone to be a matchmaker.

Unexpectedly, although Aunt Jiang had given birth to five children, her skin was a bit rough and her complexion was sallow, but she was pretty pretty, and she could vaguely see her youthful demeanor, and her figure was still in good shape. The concubine is still his money.

The smile on Jiang Yan's face instantly turned into a look of indifference.

Landlord Luo is still a generous man. Although he only came to say goodbye, he still picked up two loads of gifts. As soon as he entered the yard, the two porters who carried the loads immediately opened the box, which was full of grain, cloth, silk and satin. .

Jiang Yan glanced coldly at the things on the ground, but before he could speak, Shangguan Zixuan, who was still crying, came out howling fiercely like a lion with ruffled hair, and his voice was loud, "What is Luo Youcai or Luo Moucai? Do you have more wealth than my father, my father dare not come to propose marriage, you ugly monster how many critics!"

"Look at you, you have a big belly, a round waist, a wrinkled face, you look like a toad, and you can't count the number of moles on your back. How dare you imitate others and say kiss! How shameless!"

Not only was Shangguan Zixuan unwilling, but the brothers of the Lin family were also displeased.

"Hey, who is this child, who talks so much, it doesn't matter if the man is ugly, as long as he is in good health, and Landlord Luo's family has a lot of money. Besides, Landlord Luo is only in his forties this year. He is young, and his parents died early. Just married a wife and brought three concubines, Aunt Jiang is going to go there, isn't she enjoying Landlord Luo's wealth, I don't know how many people envy her."

Sister Mei said it vividly. Aunt Jiang did earn a little money in ten miles and eight villages, but compared to Landlord Luo, that is nothing, not worth mentioning. If there is a suitable girl in this family, they would like to send it The Luo family is a concubine.

Landlord Luo can fall in love with Aunt Jiang, and if she asks her, it is really Aunt Jiang who picked up a big bargain, and the ancestors opened the golden light!

There were not many people from the village following to see the excitement, but they all knew the identity of the landlord Luo, and they were all surprised, discussing how much blessing Aunt Jiang had accumulated in her previous life, not to mention making a lot of money. Let the landlord take a fancy to it!

Who would have thought that Aunt Jiang, a widow, would be more sought-after than those unmarried girls!
If Aunt Jiang married, she would be the landlord's wife in the future!

Luo Youcai was said to be blushing, subconsciously puffed out his chest, his eyes were full of determination and complacency, he was sure that a mountain woman like Jiang Yan, who had never seen the world, would never be able to resist his temptation!
"Aunt Jiang won't marry!"

"Aunt Jiang won't agree!"

Shangguan Mingzhi and Qiao Le spoke out almost at the same time. They looked at each other in embarrassment, Qiao Le coughed a few times, and retreated under the suspicious eyes of everyone, but Shangguan Mingzhi strode forward.

The face with a gentle smile on weekdays was full of coldness, his voice was alienated, and he said with a domineering manner: "Landlord Luo, if you really like Aunt Jiang, just ask a matchmaker to come and say hello, why bother to come here and make everyone angry I know, it's not a bit graceful!"

The widow's reputation is still relatively sensitive. With Luo Youcai's operation, Jiang Yan will be placed in a high position. If she refuses to agree, the village will criticize her for being above the top. , but if she agrees, she should say that she does not obey women's morals, and finds a wild man to marry a few children when they are young. I am sorry for the ancestor Barabara...
