Chapter 45

When packing Zhao Wen's luggage at night, Yang mentioned some things about Carpenter Qian. Only then did Zhao Caifeng know that there was actually a reason why Carpenter Qian was so warm to the Zhao family.

Carpenter Qian was not from Zhaojia Village before. When she came to Zhaojia Village more than ten years ago, her wife was pregnant with a child and had no place to stay. It was Zhao Caifeng's father who asked someone to get a piece of land in the village, and several villagers gave it to her. His family built a small courtyard. Later, Carpenter Qian's wife died of dystocia, leaving a child behind. Zhao Wen was born at that time, and Yang's family had a lot of milk, so he nursed the child at home for a while.Later, Carpenter Qian traveled far away, and when he came back, the child was no longer by his side.

"Where did that child go?" Zhao Caifeng was very interested in the story, so she couldn't help asking.

Yang is a very quiet woman, with the spirit of traditional women who work hard and bear no complaints. She is not like many village wives and women who gossip, but when Zhao Caifeng asked her, she also said a few words truthfully: "I heard your father said, Carpenter Qian’s daughter-in-law is a lady from an official family. Later, Carpenter Qian felt that he could not support the child, so he gave the child to his grandfather and grandmother. Now the child will be 14 years old, and he is still a girl. At that time, you My father also said, since that child has eaten my milk, she must be our half-daughter, who wants to beg your brother to be his wife, and now your brother is an idiot, so I don’t know where the child is, so I want to come here Things in the world are always unpredictable.”

Zhao Caifeng just nodded, and thinking about Carpenter Qian's dull look, she also felt that if she was a girl, growing up with him would be a bit wronged, and if her grandparents were good people, she might be able to live a more comfortable life .

"Don't go out and talk nonsense about these things. These are other people's family affairs. Although we know that it is not good to talk nonsense." Yang is a widow in his prime, and it is not easy to raise four children. The number of people is low, and her character is not good, so she usually seldom socializes with the men in the village. Even when Carpenter Qian came to Zhao's house to work as a carpenter, she went out early in the morning to avoid getting into trouble.

Zhao Caifeng just nodded and said: "I'm sure I won't talk nonsense. I said why carpenter Qian cared for his second brother so much. He originally wanted to be a son-in-law, but now he can't. It's not bad to be an apprentice."

Mrs. Yang had already packed Zhao Wen's clothes here, and saw a pair of trousers with a cut in the knee, and tried to mend it with a needle and thread.Yang went to the window to start sewing, but the weather was not good today, the moonlight was covered by dark clouds, so she couldn't see it.

Zhao Caifeng saw that Yang had been wearing it for a long time with vacant eyes, but she didn't see it through, so she stepped forward and took it, and looked outside, and saw Song Mingxuan squatting on the edge of the stone table, making a pile of cow dung. Little Huo, while reading a book, took a branch and scratched it on the ground.

Zhao Caifeng had already uncovered the incident at noon, and she was not a shy person, so she took her sewing clothes and went to the Song family's yard, sat down on the stone pier next to the stone table, and sat down by the light of the fire. Thread the needle.

Song Mingxuan only felt that there seemed to be a figure passing by in front of him, and when he raised his head again, he saw Zhao Caifeng sitting beside him.The light on her jade-white cheeks turned slightly yellow under the light of the fire, but Zhao Caifeng didn't care about Song Mingxuan at this time, she just threaded the thread and began to mend it.

To be honest, her needlework is really not good enough, but it's a pity that it's windy outside at this time, and it will be bad if Yang Shi is asked to do needlework in this courtyard.Over there, Yang was waiting for Zhao Caifeng to finish her sewing and go back. Now she looked up and saw that the two of them squatted and leaned against the fire, one read a book and the other sewed clothes. They looked like a young couple, so she didn't want to go and join in the fun. up.

Zhao Caifeng's index finger was still injured. Although the handkerchief was untied, she still held her finger up while doing needlework.She is not very good at needlework, and every time the needle came out, she couldn't hold it down, and she had to poke it with her fingertip, and the pain caused her to suck in air.

Song Mingxuan was able to concentrate on reading at first, but after Zhao Caifeng took three or four breaths of air-conditioning, he began to look at Zhao Caifeng worriedly.

It was the first time he saw a woman who couldn't do needlework so well, but she just sewed a small seam, and poked her fingertips so many times.Zhao Caifeng didn't hear Song Mingxuan turning the pages of the book for a long time, so she couldn't help raising her head, but she happened to see Song Mingxuan looking at her meticulously.Zhao Caifeng felt that her face was a little hot, she turned her body slightly, and said angrily, "Go read your book."

Song Mingxuan couldn't help lowering his head and laughing, but felt that Zhao Caifeng was more lively and cute like this, so he simply put down the book and patted Zhao Caifeng's knee.
