Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 142 The Stupid Man Who Can't Coax Girls

"Brother-in-law, why didn't Afu and the others come?"

On a fresh and cool morning in early summer, Xu Qiu'er sat cross-legged next to Ning Xiang, hugged her cousin and asked.

"She's a little unwell, the sisters are not going." Lu Cheng turned his head and said, looking at Ning Xiang a few more times, since he didn't see her all night, he thought about it.

Ning Xiang also missed him last night, the couple's eyes met, and there was a sweet lingering feeling.

Seeing Xu Qiu'er, she laughed and teased Lu Cheng, "Brother-in-law, my sister said she's staying in our village tonight, is that okay?"

"I'll listen to your sister for as long as she wants to stay." Lu Cheng looked at his wife flatteringly, as if he had always been so obedient.

He would behave well, Ning Xiang didn't accompany him, she glared at her cousin and forbade her to talk nonsense.

Xu Qiu'er couldn't keep her mouth shut, she lowered her head to tease Anan who was in Ningxiang's arms, "Does Anan like to watch operas?"

Anan nodded with a smile.

Xu Qiuer was amused, and quickly nodded his little nose, "You don't even know what singing is, so why mess around."

"Somersault!" Anan said unconvinced after hearing what his father said.

Xu Qiuer asked him what else he could do besides somersaults, talking and laughing all the way to the orchard.

The opera started in the afternoon. Lu Cheng led Lu Ding to inspect the garden to do some chores. Ningxiang and Xu Qiuer each carried a basket and squatted under the fruit tree to hoe weeds.The orchard was cleaned up by Lu Cheng. There were no big weeds, and only a few small grasses that did not affect the growth of the fruit trees were left. They were all loved by livestock. When they grew up, they took them home and fed them to pigs. Among them, the pig's favorite food is bitter pockmark.

Some bitter pockmarks have already bloomed, light yellow or snow white single-petal small flowers, ordinary but beautiful.

Xu Qiu'er picked a light yellow one, pretending that a fruit tree leaf fell from Ningxiang's head, and pinned the little yellow flower on her cousin's head while helping her take it off.Ningxiang didn't know anything, and concentrated on weeding. After weeding under a fruit tree, she moved forward, lest Anan would not see her looking for her mother, she didn't walk forward in a straight line, but circled the shed.

After hoeing half of the basket, Anan in the shed called his mother loudly.

Ningxiang smiled, put down her hoe and walked over.

Anan was standing in the shed with bare feet, and Atao and Amu were standing on the ground, reaching out to hug Anan down, but Anan would not give it to anyone, so he wanted to be hugged by his mother. When he saw his mother came, the little guy smiled happily, " Mother carry me down!"

"Why don't you play in the shed?" Ning Xiang asked curiously.

"Sister-in-law, we are going to drink water. Anan won't let us wear shoes for him." A Tao explained obediently, because she was short, she didn't see the little yellow flower on sister-in-law's head, and then handed over the boy's tiger-toed shoes to him. Gave it to my sister-in-law.

Ningxiang smiled, motioned Anan to sit down, and lowered her head to put on shoes for him.

When Anan saw the flowers on his mother's head, he stretched out his little hand to touch them, but was afraid that he would accidentally knock off the flowers on his mother's head, so he grinned, "Mother is beautiful."

The little guy praised her without thinking, Ning Xiang was a little strange, looked up, but didn't see anything from Anan's face, so she didn't think about it, and put Anan on the ground by his shoulders.

"Mother is going too." Anan held his mother's hand and asked her to lead him to drink water.

No one could refuse the boy's acting like a baby, Ning Xiang touched his head, and raised his voice to ask his cousin, "Let's go to drink water, will Qiu'er go?"

"I'm not thirsty yet, you go." Xu Qiu'er said without raising her head, continuing to look for bitter pockmarks.This job is easy and interesting. The unflowered ones are placed on the left side of the basket, and the flowered ones are piled up on the other side. Seeing those light yellow and white flowers clustered together, Xu Qiuer is in a particularly good mood.

When you are in a good mood, your voice will be light and pleasant. Yan Jing sneaked around from the chestnut garden, and when he heard the voice of his sweetheart, his heart beat fast.He hid behind the tree, waited for Ningxiang to lead the three children away, then quietly walked towards Xu Qiuer.The little girl was wearing a white skirt, squatting there and moving around, like a cute rabbit, humming an unknown tune softly, Yan Jing's heart almost melted when she saw it.

He wanted to talk to her, but he was afraid that she would get angry and see him, so he ran away.

But don't talk, Yan Jing is eager to do so.

When two fruit trees were separated, Yan Jing coughed.If you don't make a sound, when he sneaks closer, she will definitely say that he has malicious intentions.

The cough was obviously a man's voice, Xu Qiu'er turned her head in surprise, and saw Yan Jing standing not far away in gray clothes, with a neat bun on top of her head, her face, which was slightly whiter than her brother-in-law, was covered by a branch, blurring her features, Those deep eyes were all exposed, looking at her with a complicated look.

Xu Qiu'er immediately thought of the situation when he was forcibly dragged into his arms to kiss when picking up chestnuts last year.

"I don't want to talk to you. If you come to look for my brother-in-law, go to the north." Looking at him coldly, Xu Qiu'er turned around, lowered her head to dig the bitter pockmarks on the ground, her red lips were tightly pursed, angry at him for being dishonest, and in her heart There is another strangeness.

After all, the two of them had a skin-to-skin relationship, and she couldn't pretend that nothing had happened as a girl.To be honest, Yan Jing's family conditions are good, he looks like a dog, and he is still acquainted with his brother-in-law. If it weren't for his bullying, the two of them would have never dealt with each other. He came directly to the house to propose marriage, and Xu Qiuer only looked at his People will probably agree.But she knows how Yan Jing is, he is poor-mouthed and has no rules, and he always teases her, saying that he likes her, but after kissing her, nothing happens.

After being kissed, Xu Qiuer really didn't want Yan Jing to come to her house to propose marriage, she was afraid that her parents would agree, but Yan Jing really didn't come, Xu Qiuer felt more and more that Yan Jing was just bullying her and taking advantage of her.Proving that she was really bitten by a dog for nothing, Xu Qiuer was aggrieved for a while, and finally calmed down. When her cousin got married, she saw Yan Jing again.

Xu Qiu'er would not be nice to him if he was sincere, let alone already knew that he just wanted to tease her.

Yan Jing didn't know what was going on in his daughter's family, he had his concerns.Lu Cheng first sought Ning Xiang's favor before he proposed marriage. With the example of a good brother, Yan Jing instinctively felt that if he wanted to marry Xu Qiuer, he had to coax Xu Qiuer well first, lest if he failed to coax him well, he would be rejected if he proposed marriage. reject.

But how to coax?

"Qiu'er has hoeed so many bitter pockmarks?" Yan Jing tentatively walked forward, calling her nickname affectionately, seeing the weeds in the basket next to Xu Qiu'er neatly divided into two parts, his heart moved, and he said flatteringly: "I A lot of bitter pockmarks are blooming over there, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Get out immediately, and I will call my brother-in-law if you take a step closer."

Xu Qiu'er suddenly stood up with a hoe in his hand, and pushed him away with a sullen face, as if if Yan Jing dared to pester him again, she would beat him with the hoe.

The disgust in her almond eyes was too stinging, Yan Jing's blood turned cold, he only thought that she really hated him because of that kiss.

Yan Jing regretted that he couldn't hold it back, but he couldn't lose face when he looked at the little girl with disgust and hatred like a hooligan.

Isn't she just a good-looking girl?He Yan Jing is not the crooked melon that everyone thinks of, why hang him on a tree?
"Seeing an acquaintance come over to say hello, what do you think I want to do? I really think I am a fairy, do you want me to take a picture of you?" The tension in his eyes faded, and Yan Jing looked at Xu Qiuer sarcastically. Seeing her trembling with anger and her face turning pale, he smiled, whistled, turned around casually, and walked away, as if he really just came to greet her.

As soon as he turned around, Xu Qiuer burst into tears.

She really didn't expect Yan Jing to be this kind of person, just now, knowing that she shouldn't have illusions, she was vaguely expecting Yan Jing to really like her, so that the kiss she was kissed by him would be more or less meaningful , it's not for nothing that a prodigal son is cheap, but in a blink of an eye Yan Jing...

bastard!

Biting her lip and cursing, Xu Qiu'er wiped away the two strings of tears shed because of shame and anger, and continued to weed. With a hoe down, the blade of the hoe sank deeply into the ground, and she was no longer as relaxed as before.

Over there, Yan Jing hurried back to the chestnut garden. He also had a shed, and buried himself in the pillow with his hands between the quilt, almost crushing the thatch underneath.

He obviously wanted to please her, but why didn't he say a few words to offend her even more?
How to please the little girl, why can't she be as gentle as Lu Cheng's wife?Looking at the back, it is obviously a rabbit, why does it turn into a hedgehog when it turns around?

Yan Jing was angry with Xu Qiuer for not cooperating, and even more angry with himself for being stupid, always making her angry.

In the empty orchard, there was a sudden sound of smashing the bed.

The distance was too far, and Lu Cheng couldn't hear him. He led Lu Ding around the orchard. He taught his younger brother how his master taught him to take care of the fruit trees.Lu Chengcheng thought it over, his younger brother is young now, and he has learned to grow fruit trees, which is also a skill. When he is able to build his own orchard in the future, the two brothers will do it together.Originally, I wanted to include my second brother, but that kid has a big heart and has his own ideas.

Thinking of his second brother who had been away from home for half a month, Lu Cheng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

They haven't been separated for so many years, and they haven't seen anyone for half a month. Lu Cheng still misses his younger brother. Although Lu Yan is not small, in Lu Cheng's eyes, even if his second younger brother is taller than him, that's okay. Still younger brother.

"Do you want to plant fruit trees?" When leading the people back, Lu Cheng asked the third brother seriously, "If you don't want to learn, just tell me, let's ask the third uncle to see if there is anything suitable for you to learn in the city."

Compared with being a shopkeeper, planting fruit trees is much harder.

"I'll learn from my elder brother." Lu Ding replied immediately, looking at the fruit trees on one side with peach blossom eyes, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "Second brother has a good mouth and is suitable for dealing with people. I like to stay by myself and don't bother to look at other people's faces."

He has never been a shopkeeper, but he has bought things in the shop. Which shopkeeper doesn't greet customers with a smile when they see customers coming to the door?Lu Ding thinks he doesn't have that kind of patience, he can do it once or twice, but he can't do it against all kinds of people every day.

Lu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, even though he was afraid that his younger brother would also want to live in the city.

The two brothers went back to the shed side by side.

"Daddy, eat!" Anan was hungry, and seeing his dad from a distance, he yelled crisply.

Lu Cheng was the first to see the little yellow flower on his wife's head, and seeing that she was hugging Anan as if nothing had happened, Lu Cheng's eyes moved to Xu Qiu'er's face.The little girl blinked slyly, Lu Cheng was amused, and looked at Ningxiang again, and found that the poorly dressed daughter-in-law wearing a small flower looked more radiant, so he didn't remind her.

Taking Anan into his arms, Lu Cheng summoned Lu Ding and said, "Go to the chestnut garden and have a look. If Yan Jing hasn't left, ask him if he wants to eat with us." He didn't even look at Xu Qiu'er, pretending to be flawless.

But without waiting for Lu Ding to agree, Xu Qiuer turned to the fruit tree and said, "Brother-in-law, don't invite him, I find it awkward to have outsiders."

Lu Cheng was stunned, and then looked at Ning Xiang questioningly.

Ning Xiang didn't know the little secret of her cousin, thinking that Yan Jing and Lu Cheng are both strangers to her cousin, since she was unwilling, she discussed with Lu Cheng: "Why don't we go by ourselves?" , you invite him again some other day."

Of course Lu Cheng listened to his wife, looked at Xu Qiu'er, guessed that Yan Jing must have done something wrong again, and immediately forgot about the brother who took the blame, and led the family to the town for dinner.Worried about meeting Pei Jinghan again when he went to Yingxianju, Lu Cheng deliberately chose a small restaurant with a good reputation, so he didn't treat his sister-in-law harshly.

When they sat down in the restaurant, Yan Jing was still lying on his stomach in the shed. He was hungry when he was lying on his stomach, so he raised his head and looked out.

The sun is already in the middle.

Yan Jing frowned and sat up. Yesterday he had an appointment with Lu Cheng for lunch at noon, but he just had a fight with Xu Qiuer...

Don't go, Yan Jing misses her, it's rare to see her, even if she has a bad face, he wants to see more.

I just went, I just finished talking harshly, and now I post it on my own initiative...

In a dilemma, Yan Jing really wanted to punch himself twice. It would have been better if he hadn't fought for his breath at that time, at least he didn't have to struggle so much for a meal.

Annoyed, his stomach continued to growl ignorantly, Yan Jing rubbed his stomach, and suddenly thought of an idea.

Can't he just pretend to meet by chance?After a while when Lu Cheng came to call him, he refused to speak, to let Xu Qiu'er understand that he had no intention of trying to get close, and then waited for Lu Cheng and the others to set off, and then he quietly chased after him.There are only a few restaurants that Lu Cheng can go to, and it won't take much effort for him to search from house to house. At that time, out of politeness, Lu Cheng will definitely invite him to the same table...

The more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became. Yan Jing's chest felt a lot better, and he lay on his back in the shed with his legs crossed.
