Chapter 33 The Ugly Woman

The three looked forward, but there was no one on the other side of the bridge. The tiger beside him was obviously getting impatient and asked, "What time is it? Why hasn't anyone come yet?"

"Maybe it was delayed by something. Good aunt said that she would go to the market to sell fish every day, rain or shine." Li Damao said, his eyes kept staring at the side of the bridge while speaking, and he looked anxious.

Tie Zhu couldn't help feeling puzzled: "Since you sell fish, why don't you go to the market to see it?"

"I don't have the spare time to go to the market. It takes a long time to go back and forth."

This is true. Most people in the village are self-sufficient, and they only go to one or two fairs a month.This bridge is the only way to go to the market in the nearby ten miles and eight towns, so it is right to guard it.

Tie Zhu asked curiously: "Brother Da Mao, which village are you from?"

"From Xigang Village."

"Ah?... Xigang Village, isn't it my second old uncle's village? That's a good thing, living close, it will be convenient to go to the old man's house for a meal in the future."

"It's also convenient to deliver firewood to my father-in-law." Huzi on the side also grinned.

"Ten strokes haven't been written yet." Li Damao said so.

But Huzi didn't take it seriously: "Didn't my good aunt say it? The girls have all agreed, and I'm just waiting for you to nod."

"Then you have to look the same. I can't marry a pig or a dog." Li Damao said on the surface, but he thought in his heart that this time if the person looks about the same, he should come down. After all, his age is too high There, it would be a joke in the village if it dragged on any longer.

"Is she a girl who hasn't left the court?" Tie Zhu added in a very embarrassing way.

Hearing this, Li Damao immediately became upset: "Nonsense, can I, Li Damao, marry a second-hand guy?" He knew that everyone in the village was waiting to see his jokes, saying that she, Li Damao, couldn't marry a wife, and some people even bet against him. In the end, the one who married in was either an abandoned woman or a widow.

While speaking, a cart entered the sight of several people.

"Here we come..." Li Damao was a little nervous.

"Is that her?" Tie Zhu asked, his eyes fixed on the cart in front of him.

The wheels of the cart were very high, and several tall wooden barrels were placed on top of it, blocking the face of the person pushing the cart, but it could be seen from the gray skirt below that it was a woman.

"Yes, it's her. My aunt said that she would push the cart back and forth every day."

The six eyes stared blankly at the same direction. The scooter got closer and closer and stopped halfway. The wheel was probably stuck by something. The woman came out from behind and bent over to deal with it. a while.

The person is so far away that the appearance is hard to see clearly, but the figure still looks very good.Seeing this, Li Damao secretly delighted.

Huzi nudged him with his elbow: "Oh, Da Mao, this woman is worthy of marriage. Just look at her ass, she is very fertile."

For some reason, seeing him staring at his future wife's butt, Li Damao felt unhappy and didn't talk to him.

The cart was getting closer and closer, and the three of them retreated quietly, hid in a bush at the bridgehead and waited silently in a tacit understanding.

The sound of wheels pressing against the dirt road came to the ears, and then an unpleasant stench rushed over. Hu Zi and Tie Zhu hurriedly covered their noses, but Li Damao held back, but his face could not hide his disgust.

The three of them took a closer look, and finally saw the true face of the cart pusher.

The girl in her teens had dark skin and pimples all over her face, so her appearance was hard to describe.

The person pushing the cart didn't know that there was someone hiding in the bushes, so he pushed the cart straight to the direction of Xigang Village.

After people walked away, the unpleasant smell faded away, and the three big men came out from the bushes.

"Oh my god, this smell is too exciting." Huzi couldn't help complaining: "It's not just the smell, but have you seen that face clearly?"

Hu Zi shook his head and sighed as he spoke, "It's a pity that such a face matches that figure."

Tie Zhu couldn't help but added another sentence: "If this woman marries and returns home, she won't have nightmares when she sleeps in the middle of the night, don't you think so, Brother Da Mao?"

Li Damao couldn't hear his gloating, his face turned red and white, and finally he gave them a hard look, turned his head and left without saying a word...

Xu Weiqiu didn't know how many people were judging her just now, she looked up at the sky and quickened her pace.

When she came to Tianji, she unloaded several wooden barrels from the cart and cleaned them in the ditch. The wooden barrels were used to hold fish, and the fishy smell could not be washed away.

After entering the village, she pushed the cart into Xu's firewood shed, and she came out with bundles of firewood.

There were two big red lanterns hanging at the door of Xu's house. The big red happy lettering on the door was not pasted well, and a corner fell off, so she tidied it up.

As soon as he entered the door, he ran into Xu Weicheng's daughter-in-law Hongyan who had just passed the door not long ago. When Hongyan saw her, she pointed to her face in surprise and exclaimed without saying hello: "Miss Qiu, what's the matter with your face?" ?”

The second mother in the room came over when she heard the sound, and she was shocked when she saw her appearance.

Xu Weiqiu looked calm: "What's wrong with my face?" He stretched out his hand to touch it, and touched some protruding particles.

"Come here, come and take a look." Er Niang pulled her into her room, took out a mirror from the bedside and held it in front of her.

She leaned up to take a look, and when she saw her ghostly appearance in the mirror, she immediately understood.

"In the market, a lady who sells pastries offered me two pastries, which probably contained peanuts."

Mrs. Zhang heard that she was allergic to peanuts. She didn't know what an allergy was, but she knew that she couldn't eat it, and she would pay attention to cooking. Now seeing the pimple on her face, she knew that allergies are so terrible.

"Then what should I do? With a face like this, how can I go out to meet people?"

Seeing that she was anxious, Xu Weiqiu hurriedly said: "It's not a big deal, it will be fine in a few days."

"Is this really true?" Mrs. Zhang was skeptical.

"Really, why did I lie to you?"

"Don't you need to apply some medicine?"

"No need to paint anything."

Under her reassurance, Erniang was still worried: "You still have to be careful, it will be troublesome if you leave scars, Qiu'er, you have reached the age to talk about marriage, the most important thing for a woman is to marry a good man , if this face is ruined, I'm afraid it will be hard to find someone."

Xu Weiqiu didn't pay much attention to her words, but she didn't refute them either. She knew that it was useless to talk about different opinions, so she just obediently agreed.
