Yu Jun

There was no formal courtesy, the two of them buried their heads in eating hard, and after eating the table full of food, they put down their chopsticks, rinsed their mouths with tea, and left the compartment.

Holding his belly, Cheng Ting sat in the chair, feeling very peaceful: "My mother went to Xu's family to propose marriage, just like what Lefeng said, sister Huiran didn't agree."

He was a little sad, but the sadness was limited, because he had expected it, so he quickly relaxed, and the feeling seemed to have slowed down, and became faint—as if a fiery heart followed on the pier. The energy of running leaked out, and he was discouraged, and he stopped rolling on the ground because of it, and he was drunk like mud.

He also felt strange, he used to sing on stage alone, but he was full of energy, and now he is still singing alone, why can't he continue singing because of exhaustion?

He looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus he had folded in, and suddenly remembered the important events of his two best friends.

"Leafing is sixteen this year, you... do you want to marry?"

Wu Jin shook her head: "She won't want a husband who is like a slave."

Cheng Ting was curious: "Then what does she want?"

Wu Jin took a sip of tea: "She wants a clever staff member, a loyal subordinate, a skilled companion, and a court official who can mediate in all directions,

If your uncle is still awake and Mr. Zhao is still alive, they will not want me to marry Mo Lefeng at this time, no matter whether I am married or not. "

"Why?"

"Because Leaf is a ferocious beast they raise, when they should show their teeth and claws, they must not be limited by their emotions."

Cheng Ting listened, but didn't quite understand, but felt that the future of these two people was bumpy, and he was speechless.

After a long while, he asked: "You want to wait until she grows up? If she changes her mind, what will you do?"

Wu Jin smiled and said, "Two stones, what can be changed."

Cheng Ting was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and felt that the words were plain and blurted out, but there was a special affection, as if they were connected with each other, so there was no need to say more.

They are too smart. They exclude rights, status, wealth, and appearance other than feelings, and only seek that little bit of sympathy, so they become very "stupid", stupid and stubborn.

Cheng Ting stood up and stretched himself, stretching out the exhaustion all over his body: "Come on, let's go and take the dog to play."

Wu Jin stood up, took off the crane cloak from the screen, stretched out her hand to put it on, packed up the things on the table, and walked out together with Cheng Ting.

The two of them went out of the corner gate and out of the alley of Mo Mansion, and within a short distance, Pang Dahai rushed towards Cheng Ting, panting and stopped beside Cheng Ting, saluted the two of them, and then said to Cheng Ting: "Third Master, Master is looking for you , let you go back quickly."

Cheng Ting pulled his face: "Don't do that! I quit!"

However, it was rare to be caught by his father's blue eyes, and he said not to do it, his two legs still followed Pang Dahai, and while walking, he turned his head and said to Wu Jin: "Wait for me for dinner tomorrow."

Wu Jin nodded, and continued to walk home, the sky fell on him inch by inch, until the darkness completely enveloped him.

When he returned home, there was a sweet aroma in the front yard. Wu's mother was counting the white caramel, and Wu's father was sitting on the buggy, picking up the candies into cloth bags.

Wu Yi became a teacher as an apprentice, and now he is carrying the burden of selling sugar, planning to rent a shop and open a sugar shop in a few years.

"Boss is back," Mother Wu raised her head, "Look at this candy, why is it sticky?"

"It's wet." Wu Jin stepped forward to help, and picked out the sticky ones, "It'll be fine once it's frozen."

Wu Yi came in from the outside, with a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden. Seeing that his parents and Wu Jin were there, he quickly suppressed his smile, but his eyes were still shining brightly. There was a purse on his waist, which was embroidered with bright scenes of the four seasons: " Brother, you are back."

Wu Jin nodded, her gaze swept over the purse, Wu Yi quickly tore off the purse and stuffed it into her sleeve, with an unnatural expression on her face.

He picked up a piece of white caramel and put it in his mouth: "Aniang, people say that if you open a sugar shop in the future, you will earn more than you do now, and if you go to Sichuan to collect sugar, you will earn even more."

Mother Wu glanced at him: "Who said that?"

Wu Yi was vague: "It's... a friend I know, a date seller."

Wu's mother turned her eyes around him: "Stop thinking about it, and finish the matter in front of you."

Wu Yi blushed: "I know."

After the family packed up their things, Wu's mother stopped Wu Jin and went into the main room to talk - the house grew bigger and bigger, but the family was getting less and less together.

Wu Jin opened the chair for Mother Wu, and reached out to touch the teapot. Seeing that there was warm water in it, she uncovered the teacup and poured one for Mother Wu: "Aniang, drink some water."

Wu's mother took it in her hand and took a sip: "Boss, there is a servant in Mo's house, did he go to Beijing to catch the exam?"

Wu Jin nodded: "Yes."

"You're not going?"

"Aniang," Wu Jin sat down and spoke softly, "My son won't go this year, but I will go in three years. Although my son is in Mofu, he has never stopped studying. Human knowledge is not achieved in a day. After three years, my son will definitely be named on the gold list, you can rest assured."

Mother Wu heard that after three years, he would still go for the imperial examination, and she finally felt a little relieved.

Wu Jin said again: "Mother, the second child is already sixteen, if there is a suitable girl, please ask the matchmaker to propose marriage, and the house will also be given to the second child, so there is no need to stick to the rules."

"No, the eldest will marry the second first if he doesn't marry the second child. There is no such reason to go to the kang without telling the truth! You start a family first, and the second child will marry again. Wait for another three or six years, and the second child will also be able to wait!"

Wu Jin was silent for a while, sighed, and said softly: "Mother, if I never marry, will the second child also wait?"

When Wu's mother heard this, there was a "hum" in her ears, and all the blood in her limbs and bones turned into a raging fire, burning to her heart, eyes, and top of her head. Knowing where to jump, it just hurts, and it hurts while jumping, and the eyes of the jump are blood red.

She opened her mouth, wanting to ask him what he meant, but when she opened her mouth, only a faint air flow came out of her throat.

Her eyes were still blurred, and her soul seemed to be out of her body. With a "gurgling" in her throat, she fell to the side,
"Mother!" Wu Jin quickly got up, walked to Mother Wu's side, and helped him up.

He helped Wu's mother up with one hand, turned his head and shouted outside: "Second brother, go get the doctor!"

Wu Yi was eating candy outside, and after hearing Wu Jin's cry, she almost got stuck in a mouthful of candy, and ran away before she could go in to have a look.

Wu's father was sitting in the BMX, unable to move, and shouted anxiously: "Boss, what's wrong? What happened?"

Wu Jin came out with Wu's mother in her arms, walked to the door of her own wing, kicked open the door, put Wu's mother on the bed, ran out again, picked up Wu's father by the waist, brought Wu's father into the room, and put him in a chair .

"Boss, your mother..." Father Wu eagerly poked his head out and looked at the bed.

"I'll get the medicine first." Wu Jin hurriedly went to the second courtyard, took Wanying ointment from her parents' house, picked out a piece with her index finger, and rubbed it on Wu's mother's temple, Renzhong, and Tiger's mouth.

After a while, Mother Wu slowly opened her eyes, looking at the worried Wu Jin in front of her, tears streaming down her face. (end of this chapter)
