Chapter 84
Xu Baozhu knew that he was straightforward, but he never thought that he would go so far and say such words in front of himself and Zhu Yun, and was momentarily stunned.

Surprised and somewhat helpless.

"Oh, you're joking, why take it too seriously."

Xu Baozhu took Zhu Yun's hand, covered up his embarrassment with a smile, pretended that the two had a good relationship, and introduced to Zhu Yun: "Master, this is Shi Feng, Brother Shi, I met you at the Huachao Festival earlier. Yes, he is wild and unrestrained, he just likes to joke, don't worry about it."

Zhu Yun's face didn't ease down because of her words, but he was thinking, you two have only known each other for a few days, how do you know his temperament, and are so familiar, and you want to speak for him, but he can't really say anything to others Living, only said: "I saw that day, he is really a man of love."

Zhu Yun clasped his fists together and said, "Brother Shi, I will have to trouble you about the new house from now on."

"Should be."

……

This Shi Feng is open-minded and talkative, and works quickly. In less than half a month, he has become acquainted with everyone in her family, and he is deeply liked by the old man Xu and the old lady Xu. Even the old carpenter praised him. , I want to take him by my side and pass on my work skills.

This farmer used to rely on his strength to eat. Seeing this, old man Xu remembered what Shi Feng said on the first day when he first came here, and his heart was moved again.

It's spring time.

Taking advantage of the break at noon, the old man Xu asked Xu Baozhu's opinion.

"Girl, what do you think?"

"What do you think?" Xu Baozhu was puzzled.

The old man Xu pointed to the person who buried the pile in the distance and said: "I don't think you can't see what the Shi family boy is thinking. You and Brother Yun are not real husband and wife. If you have ideas, why don't you take advantage of this opportunity?" Chance……"

"Father, stop talking nonsense!"

Nowadays, spring plowing, although her family does not focus on farming, but some basic crops, such as corn, millet, rice, etc., can still be planted. During the day, she takes Ah Qing to work in the field, wheat and old The wife supervises the work at home. The old man Xu sees the doctor when he is sick, and goes to the field with her when there is no sickness. The family is busy and orderly, and they don't have much time to contact Shi Feng. It's just when they rest at night or when they go home to cook. She only said a few words to give someone water, but she didn't expect her father to have such an idea.

Old man Xu said: "Brother Yun is a fine person at first glance."

He sighed, and said: "I'm not saying he's not good, but you can see that his appearance, demeanor, and manner of speaking are not the same as ours. If he doesn't leave now, it doesn't mean he will always be here in the future. , you are not young anymore, and I can't wait for him. Father hopes that you can have a good home. This person may not be so handsome and beautiful, and he may not necessarily read and write, but at least he can be by your side, what? I can help you a little with life."

Xu Baozhu lowered her eyes.

She hadn't thought about it.

Zhu Yun won't stay here forever. She didn't ask him about his background, but she can probably tell from the relationship these days. People just want to hide for a while because of something. Maybe when they want to leave Then he left, but the old man was a little anxious after thinking about it. She left Zhu Yun, and she was her own size. Do some, and don't need to rely on a man to support them, so why do you have to find someone?
But she can also understand, after all, in this place, the girl's family started looking for someone to marry when she was fifteen or sixteen years old. Now she is over nineteen years old, and she is considered an old girl here, so it is understandable for him to be anxious.

"Father, I understand what you mean. Brother Yun and I... It's not what you think, let alone this boy from the Shi family, and I don't think marrying someone is my only way out."

She tried to instill her own ideas in old man Xu.

"If I don't get married or get married, I can live a good life."

The old man Xu shook his head helplessly, sighed, and said, "I don't know where you have such strange ideas. How can this daughter's family not marry? Well, let me just say, it doesn't matter if you don't want to."

……

Behind the locust tree, Maizi stood there in a daze holding a basket of meals.

The only thing in her mind was what old man Xu said: "It's not a real couple."

If it's not true, is she...

"Girl, what are you thinking?" Mrs. Xu saw her standing there, pushed her away, and said, "Baby girl, they must be hungry after working all morning. Let's walk faster. Delayed."

"Hey, good."

Maizi withdrew her thoughts, tightened her hands and walked forward.

Seeing them coming, Xu Baozhu said to old man Xu: "Don't think too much, Father, let's eat first."

She threw down her hoe and went up, took old lady Xu's lunch box, and said with a smile, "Grandma, you guys came early today."

"Isn't this afraid that you and your father will be hungry?" Mrs. Xu took a look at the vegetable field that had already been weeded, and said, "It's almost over."

"Well, it's just a little bit short of the horn, just go and tidy up after dinner."

Xu Baozhu opened the water hyacinth, took a sip of water, regained his composure, and said, "You are chatting with Father, I will call Ah Qing over."

She couldn't hear it, and she was very real, she wouldn't try to be lazy, she was still busy in the field under the scorching sun.

Old man Xu looked at her going back, couldn't help sighing, and said with emotion: "This girl is not good at anything, she just doesn't understand."

The old lady Xu didn't understand what he meant, she only said that she felt sorry for her daughter, and said: "Bao girl is actually still young, after a few years, when she becomes a mother, she will be able to understand the world."

Old man Xu moved his lips when he heard the words, but he didn't say a word in the end.

When Xu Baozhu came back, she saw the worried faces of the two of them, so she knew that the old man Xu didn't let go of what she had just said, but she didn't take the initiative to bring it up, she just asked, "Did Brother Yun send it over there?"

This is the busy time of spring.

It was not supposed to teach, but Li was thinking about the children in the village and wanted them to be the same as the children in the academies and private schools outside, so he made an exception.

The child of Xu Dashan's family who attended a private school can go to the county to work as an accountant, earn a lot of income a year, and send back some novelty items to the family from time to time, which is the envy of the villagers. There were no conditions earlier, and the private school The fee is expensive, so I would rather my child be a boy who doesn't understand arts and sciences. Now Zhu Yun is letting Zhu Yun run a school in the village, and he can't get the usual fee. He approved a piece of land for teaching.

The children are well-behaved and eager for knowledge. They often don't go home after school, pestering Zhu Yun to tell stories, so although the place is not far away, Zhu Yun mostly lives there, and even doesn't come back often at night .

She...has not seen anyone for about half a month.
