fisherwoman

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month in the 21st year of Daqi Yongan, the sun was faint, the wind was cold, and the slightest bit of wind was penetrating into the bones!

The earthen wall of Xiao's house had long been pasted with big red happy characters, which glowed softly in the morning light.

The two bare trees at the gate were tied with a lot of red cloth strips, stretching slowly in the cold wind, like flower trees blooming in midsummer, adding an exciting bright color to the gray vision.

In the courtyard, there is already the sound of gongs and drums, and the voices of people are bustling.

"Marry a daughter-in-law! Marry a daughter-in-law!"

A group of children in rough cotton padded jackets jumped and ran to the courtyard of Xiao's house, playing and playing back and forth, wiping the frozen snot with their dirty sleeves from time to time, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

The groom, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, walked back and forth in the simple house with his hands behind his back, seemingly helpless.

The well-tailored clothes made him look more elegant, and there was no trace of joy on his handsome face, but a little restlessness, but there was no trace of a peasant boy on his body, most likely like a knight walking in the rivers and lakes.

A few days ago, he went out for a long trip, and he just came back yesterday, only to find out that he was going to get married today, which was too sudden.

"Cheng Yu, you are married, and my mother has settled her mind." Yang smiled at him lovingly, walked up to him, and carefully straightened his clothes. His clothes flicked lightly, "You are already 20 years old, and you have a marriage contract, we can't delay other girls!"

"But mother, I have only been working in the Yamen for a year, and I really don't want to get married so soon." Hearing the deafening sound of gongs, drums and playing outside, his eyebrows were slightly frowned. , if there is a woman following him around, it will be troublesome to think about it.

"As the saying goes, when you start a family and start a business, you naturally start a family first and then start a business. Don't say anything. The time has come, go and marry the bride! Today, my son is very happy!" A layer of water welled up in Yang's eyes unknowingly. Fog, 20 years, finally looking forward to this day.

This child is going to marry a wife!

When Xiao Chengyu walked out of the yard, the piercing chill and the overwhelming redness hit him head-on, as well as the endless stream of people in the yard who came to help and children running around.

The sound of gongs and drums, the sound of laughter, and the sound of talking, merged into one breath, and spread out one by one before his eyes.

marriage!He was really not ready!

"Mother, I have already inquired. The Xiao Chengyu in Longtan Village has two older brothers who are half-brothers, and two younger sisters who have not yet left the court. With this big family, can the family be well-off? More importantly The most important thing is that Xiao Chengyu is not a family supporter at all. Although he works in the yamen, he is just hanging up a idle job. Push it into the fire pit?" Lin Xuechuan sat on the kang crying pear blossoms with rain, crying and refusing to change her wedding dress.

"Girl, your marriage was arranged for you by your grandfather before he was alive, and there is nothing you can do about it!" Sitting on the side, Wang also shed tears with her, squatting on the ground while staring fiercely. Lin Youquan sighed.

Lin Youquan naturally knew what his daughter was thinking, but what could he do!

In the name of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, there is no room for regret!

Besides, this Xiao Chengyu is also a master who is not easy to mess with. He heard that someone stole his brother's fish last year. After hearing about it, he insisted on sending him to the government, and almost broke that person's leg. Who would dare to provoke such a person? ah!

My daughter is really spoiled and can't do any housework. Knowing that Longtan Village is a small fishing village, and her husband's family has such a large family, she has long clamored not to marry.

"Anyway, I don't want to marry, so I don't want to go to that fishing village to smell the fishy smell of the sea!" Lin Xuechuan suddenly jumped off the kang, and ran away crying, really spoiled!

"Xue Chuan, stop making trouble, you are getting married today!" Mrs. Wang stomped her feet and ran out after her. She is just such a daughter. If there is any mistake, she will let people live!

Lin Youquan squatted on the ground alone, with a distressed expression on his face.

The dead silence in the room was suffocating.

Then, the faint sound of gongs and drums came from outside, approaching, and stopped at the door.

Spectators poured in one after another, making the yard noisy.

Come out, bride!Come out, bride!Someone was yelling outside.

There were bursts of laughter from time to time.

After a while, Wang walked in resentfully.

"His father, Xue Chuan made a lot of trouble and refused to come back. Now she is at my mother's house, and my mother is guarding her." She stood beside him, probably because she was guilty and did not dare to look at her man.

"You are used to it, what should I do? What should I do?" He stood up and shouted at her, "She is married today!"

His voice was loud, but was immediately drowned out by the sound of gongs and drums.

"Who knows what to do!" Mrs. Wang muttered, remembering what her mother said just now, and glanced at the back room.

As if the answer was hidden there!

Someone knocked on the door, and it was Xipo, the Xiao family who came to pick up the bride.

"I said in-laws, the time has come, and it's time to get married. The gongs and drums have already sounded three times." The bride quietly looked around the room, but she didn't see the bride, and she became puzzled.

"My aunt, as the saying goes, there are different winds in ten miles, and different customs in a hundred miles. It is the etiquette of your Longtan Village to ring the gongs and drums three times. In our place, you have to beat it a few more times to make it look lively, right?" Wang forced a smile. Wiped the sweat from his brow.

"I've been picking up brides for so many years, and this is the first time I've heard of it." A sneer appeared on the corner of the Xi Po's mouth. She looked at the faces of the two of them and the red wedding dress on the kang, and she already understood a little bit, " However, the happy event is not afraid of being late, I will go out and talk about it, and I will ring it a few times, who will let the bride be so precious!"

When Xi Po said Jingui, she bit it very clearly.

He was clearly mocking her!

On weekdays, Mrs. Wang would have been irritable, but today is different, she can't care about these trivial matters.

She looked at her husband-in-law and pouted towards the back room.

Lin Youquan was stunned for a moment, then he let out a long sigh, and crouched down with his head in his arms.

Lin Xueman lay on the kang, curled up in the thin quilt, heard the sound of chickens and dogs jumping outside, and sighed. She turned over, faced the wall, and stretched out her hand to caress the uneven wall. It was damp and cold. This kind of cold touch has been cold to the heart.

How did you cross over?

She had been lying on the kang for a whole day, except for her uncle Lin Youquan who came to bring her a bowl of porridge, no one else came in.

From Lin Youquan's comforting words, she knew a little about the original owner's life experience. She lost her mother since she was a child, and her father went out.

The uncle's family took her in. It seemed that the aunt didn't like it, and the cousin didn't love her. Only this uncle still had a little blood affection for her.

It's under the fence!

There was another deafening sound of gongs and drums in the courtyard, which seemed to resound through the sky.

Today is my cousin Lin Xuechuan getting married!

She sat up, put on her clothes, got off the kang, washed her face in the cold water, and felt much refreshed. She looked at her own shadow in the water. Although she was a little thin, she looked delicate and pleasant, and Not bad, she is a beauty.

She snapped her fingers at herself in the water, she looked much better than her previous life!

"Xueman, are you feeling better?" Lin Youquan walked in with his neck curled up. He didn't look up at her, but just stared at her.

Yesterday afternoon, she went to the mountain to chop firewood, and accidentally fell down from the hillside, and was sent back by the Qin family Saburo. Fortunately, she was not in any danger, only a little frightened and not injured.

"Well, it's much better, thank you uncle for your concern." Lin Xueman lowered her eyes and followed his gaze, but there was nothing on the ground, it was full of potholes, nothing to see.

"That's good, that's good." He nodded, paused, and said, "You, are you hungry? I'll bring you a bowl of porridge later."

"It's okay, I'm not hungry, uncle, my sister is very happy today, don't worry about me, go and busy with my sister's affairs!" When she first arrived here, there were still people greeting her, and she was moved.

The two were silent for a moment.

"When is it, and you still can't speak? Let me tell you!" Wang stepped in hastily, she looked Lin Xueman up and down, and said coldly, "Xueman, you have lived in our house all these years, eating Ours, wearing ours, now, the sedan chair is waiting outside, your sister is missing, we are all in trouble, you can't just stand by and watch?"

Lin Xueman looked at Wang in confusion.

She could see that this aunt didn't like her, but isn't her cousin getting married today?How can I go missing?

Besides, what does it matter to me?

"Xueman, you are already 16 years old, anyway, you are going to get married soon, how about, why don't you marry today!" Wang's face was still cold, and there was no tone of asking for help, it was an order!

"What? Me?" Lin Xueman was taken aback, did she make a mistake!This can be replaced!

Lin Youquan stood aside, also sweating.

Suddenly, he plopped and knelt on the ground: "Xueman, uncle is sorry for you, please help uncle! That Xiao Chengyu, our family can't afford to mess with it! You, you just listen to your aunt and marry your sister! "

I marry for my sister?

Lin Xueman sneered, and the memories of this body suddenly flooded into his mind.

"Xueman, I don't want to wash the dishes, I want to go out and play."

"I'll wash it! Sister, go out and play!

"Xueman, hurry up and wash your clothes, your sister thinks the water is cold!"

"I'm going to wash now, auntie!"

……

"Xueman, hurry up and put on your sister's wedding dress, the sedan chair is waiting outside!" Wang looked out the window and urged, as if to say, your sister doesn't want to go out to collect firewood, so go! "

Lin Xueman looked at the so-called uncle who was kneeling on the ground, and the emotion that had surged up just now disappeared in an instant. If she didn't marry today, there would be no place for her in this family.

Just married like this?

What can be done then?

escape?Where are you going to go in this cold weather, you are not familiar with the place where you live.

Then get married!Let's talk about it after getting married!

Lin Xueman, you just change the place to wash the dishes and clothes!She consoled herself.

Looking at her rough and even red and swollen hands, she smiled sadly at them: "Uncle and Aunt, you have raised me for ten years, and I have been a long-term worker in this family for ten years. Now that I am married for my sister, she doesn't want to The person who married jumped into the fire pit that originally belonged to her, and from then on, we are clean."

The corner of Wang's mouth twitched, and she looked at her calmly. In the past ten years, this child seems to have been forbearing. No matter what she is asked to do, she always bears it silently. When the time comes, this is to settle accounts. , What ten years of long-term work, even if you stay with your biological parents, you will stop doing housework?

Other people's children just can't support them!

Lin Xueman caught her gaze and gave her a blank expression.

This aunt looks ordinary, especially the nail-sized mole on the left face, which is particularly eye-catching.

"Xueman." Lin Youquan burst into tears when he heard the words, "Uncle, I'm sorry!"

The gongs and drums had already sounded six times, but the bride did not come out.

The faces of those who got married showed anxiety. Is this woman still married?

It wasn't until Xi Po appeared at the door with a red figure supported by her, that all the people were relieved.

Xiao Chengyu had already shown an impatient look on his face. If the people around him did not try their best to dissuade him, he would have gone home by himself. Who would want to marry him!

He coldly looked at the petite red figure covered with a hijab, the extremely unfitting wedding dress was hanging loosely on his body, and the long hem was dragged on the ground, walking towards him cautiously step by step...
