pastoral fragrance

Chapter 269
That night, Qiu Song and Mei Xiang talked to each other, until the dead of night, Qiu Song reluctantly returned from Mei Xiang's house.The two domestic dogs that were raised in the family a few years ago are now very big, and now they bark non-stop when they hear the approaching footsteps.When the other dogs in the village heard it, they also barked wildly. The scene was quite lively!
The family originally wanted to wait for Qiu Song to come back before going to bed, but it was not a good idea to wait until midnight, so they went back to sleep.Hearing movement in the yard now, he knew that it was Qiu Song who had returned.Mrs. Han got up quickly and walked to the yard, and she saw her son walking towards the yard.

The two eyesless dogs, seeing the mistress of the house coming out to watch, felt that they had meritoriously barked, and now they even pulled their throats, raised their necks to the sky, and barked obediently. One sound is more intense than the other.He also stared at the person with those two pairs of shiny dog ​​eyes, looking like he was ready to go.

Seeing this, Mrs. Han snorted coldly and gave the two dogs a kick. "Wishless thing, howling, can't you two pairs of dog eyes see that this person is a member of the family? Wherever it is cool, stay there!"

The result of the two dogs barking desperately was that the hostess beat and scolded, and the two dogs felt a little inexplicably wronged.But now he really stopped barking, obediently crawled back to his kennel, and whimpered as the visitor stepped into the yard step by step.

Han quickly went up to meet her, without saying anything to reproach her.Concerned: "It's so late, the water in the top jar is still warm, you can go to bed after washing, today is enough." Walking into the yard, Han Shi saw Qiu Song's tired face.She felt pity in her heart, thinking to herself that her son must be extremely tired after traveling and traveling, so she didn't say anything more.

Qiu Song was really exhausted when he came back from Mei Xiang's house, he nodded with his tired eyes downcast, right now he just wanted to find a bed and sleep soundly.He didn't say anything at the moment, and dragged his exhausted body to the stove.Looking at Qiusong's broad back, Han felt very at ease and proud.

After tossing and tossing for so long, Qiu Song went straight to the wing room after taking a shower, and fell asleep on the bed.I fell asleep until dawn.

When I woke up, hot glutinous rice balls were placed on the dining table.When Qiu Song was at home, he especially liked the food made of glutinous rice, whether it was glutinous rice balls or pancakes, he liked to eat them all.So Mrs. Han got up early today, instead of taking care of those can'er as usual, she got up and made noodles for Qiusong to eat a bowl of hot glutinous rice balls.

Qiu Song has been wandering outside for many years, and whenever he eats, he always thinks of these snacks in his hometown.Although there are other places, they are either not authentic or lack a bit of home flavor.Seeing this bowl of hot glutinous rice balls today, I am full of joy and can't help but feel a surge of emotion.He ate two large bowls of glutinous rice balls in one go, and even Qiu He, who had always had a big appetite, had to look sideways.Secretly smacking his tongue, the second brother eats too much, right?You should know that although the glutinous rice balls are soft and delicious, they are made of glutinous rice after all, and if you eat too much, you will not be able to digest them.

After breakfast, Qiuyue Qiulin planned to wander around the slopes.It is said to be wandering, but in fact, there is a task.What I do the most is to prune the branches and leaves of herbs and mulberry trees. Those excessively lush honeysuckle branches and vines need to be cut off to benefit the growth of honeysuckle, and the old and yellow mulberry leaves that have been bitten by insects should also be cut off. The mulberry leaves eaten by children must be fresh and clean, so as to reduce the incidence of silkworms.

Just holding the scissors and the sickle in his hand, before he walked out of the main room, Qiu Song couldn't help but said: "Sister, don't go to work, I have something to tell you. You all stop to work, first listen to me."

The whole family felt very surprised, but they still listened to Qiu Song's words.Mrs. Han handed over the work to Mrs. Zhang, and seeing Qiusong's serious face when he came over, he knew what he was going to talk about.By the way, the door was also closed, and now only Xu Nanshan, her, and her four children were left in the room.Xu Nanshan knocked out the leaf smoke, threw it aside, glanced at the surroundings, found nothing unusual, and said, "Qiu Song, there are no outsiders here, so just say what you have to say."

Qiu Song glanced at the serious crowd, and said slowly: "Father and mother, I only have [-] days to go home this time, and I will take up the post in Shitou County after that. After that, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back until the Chinese New Year at least." .”

Han Shi was a little confused, and asked: "So?"

Qiu Song took a breath, remembering last night's love with Mei Xiang, you and me, Qiu Song finally said firmly: "So I want to marry Mei Xiang in these days."

Qiu Song's words were undoubtedly a thunderbolt that exploded in the room.Qiuyue was the most impatient, she stared and exclaimed, "What, getting married?"

Qiu Song looked at the startled elder sister Qiuyue, and explained: "Elder sister, I know that seniority is orderly, but we have to proceed from the actual situation. Mei Xiang has been waiting for me for so many years, and if I let her wait like this, I... can't bear it. She has paid too much for me." Qiu Song thought that even if Uncle Gen and the others didn't say anything, they still had complaints in their hearts. After all, Mei Xiang was not young. After the new year, but only 20 years old!
Han Shi also took a deep breath, "This... have you told Mei Xiang? In fact, the elders and children are orderly, the rules are dead, and people are alive. How can the living be bound by the rules? Don't let people be crushed to death?" Han's thinking is clear now, and his vision is not as narrow as before.What's wrong with the orderly seniority, you have to look at the problem from the actual situation, right?Just thinking that the marriage was done so quickly and hastily, would Mei Xiang be wronged?

Qiuyue pursed her lips, with a look of astonishment on her face.When her second brother got married, she was naturally happy in her heart, but thinking that he was going to get married so soon, and even got married before her own, she somehow felt a little hairy in her heart.

Xu Nanshan nodded solemnly, "Well, I think it's okay. This Meixiang girl has been waiting for so many years, and she really shouldn't be allowed to wait any longer. Isn't this a drag on others? Qiuyue and Ah Cheng's marriage It has already been booked, so I won’t make any changes, I’m thinking about letting Qiu Song get married first.” This Meixiang girl is also a big girl, and she always drags other girls like this, I’m afraid that this originally intimate relationship will also be because of the marriage of her children. And a rift arises.This is not what he wants to see.

"Second brother, I think this can be done! As mother said, rules are dead, but people are alive. We country people don't have to pay so much attention to it. It's better to get married before your elder brothers and sisters." No more? It’s just eldest sister, what do you think about this matter?” Qiulin expressed his position in a few words, then glanced at the eldest sister Qiuyue who was still in a daze, and threw the question to her.After all, the second brother wants to get married before the eldest sister.

Qiuyue's surprise and first glance just got into the horns of the old and the young, but after analyzing it now, the lump in her heart disappeared. "Mei Xiang is a good girl, second brother, you should really treat her well. As long as you can be happy, what's the point of getting married before me? Big sister bless you two, second brother, marry Mei Xiang home as soon as possible." Think After opening, Qiuyue was in a good mood, grinning so hard that she couldn't see her teeth.The joy seemed to be at the scene of Qiu Song and Mei Xiang getting married.

Qiu Song and Mei Xiang's marriage was done before the elder sister Qiuyue. After the whole family voted, it was almost unanimously approved.Seeing that the family members are so open-minded, Qiusong is both relieved and full of gratitude!

"Ah Song, you are so silly to be happy here. You have discussed this matter with Mei Xiang. Is there any reason that her daughter agrees to marry you?" Although she knew that Mei Xiangpan had been looking forward to Qiu Song marrying her all these years, but at this juncture In general, I always ask what the girl thinks, what do her parents think?
This time it was Qiu Songle's turn, he smiled foolishly, from ear to ear. "Yesterday...I told Mei Xiang about this yesterday, and she said it was all up to me, and Uncle Gen and the others didn't object."

When Han shi heard this, she felt pleasantly surprised. In just six hours, so many happy things happened in the family!First Qiusong came home, then Qiusong became an official, and now she is going to marry a daughter-in-law again. She is almost ecstatic about these three happy events!With tears streaming down her cheeks, Mrs. Han said happily: "Okay, okay, let's have a happy event! Make a special event, the child's father, our son is going to marry a wife!" In just two days, Han's was so happy to find Not to the north.

"En." The old man who was not good at words was so excited that he couldn't say anything else. Seeing Mrs. Han crying now, he couldn't help his tears, and for a while, he burst into tears.The second baby is about to get married, how can he be unhappy as a father?

Seeing this, Qiu Song shook his head helplessly. It's all right, why are you crying again? "Father and mother, please stop crying..."

Wiping away her tears, Mrs. Han said joyfully, "We are very happy, haha. This time we must make the wedding a lively one, and let Mei Xiangfeng come to marry us!"

After the small family meeting ended, Mrs. Han hurriedly ordered people to call back all the people who were busy working in the field, and told them not to be busy working for a few days.When everyone heard it, they couldn't help but want to ask why.In the end, before they could ask any more questions, the host's grandma happily told everyone that her second son was getting married.The owner has a happy event, and everyone is also happy.

After discussing with Mei Xiang's family, the marriage was set in three days.Because of time constraints, Qiulin's family did not break ground to build a new house for the couple who were about to get married, but used the house that Qiusong lived in.It's just that the furniture in the house has to be remade, and the new furniture is handed over to the two brothers of Han's natal family.

Han Dong heard that his nephew was going to get married, and the marriage partner was his apprentice's sister, so he naturally returned the other furniture orders, and started working overnight to rush out a batch of furniture.The best wood is used, just because of the rush, there is no need to fine-tune the workmanship.

In addition to remaking the furniture, everyone has to go to the town to buy wedding supplies, such as fireworks, food and drinks.On the day when I went to the town to buy supplies for the wedding banquet, Qiulin Qiuyue took a list and led a group of people to the town in a bullock cart.Time was running out, so Qiuyue Qiulin each led a small team to act separately.After the purchase is complete, they will meet at the same place.

In addition to buying supplies for the wedding banquet, Qiulin also sent a plain invitation to Murong Yunfan in Qingfeng Building.Qiulin felt that since he was in partnership with Murong Yunfan, and his second brother got married, he would feel sorry for not inviting his business partners.As for whether he will come or not, that is something he has to consider himself!
