peasant young lady

Chapter 67 Recreation in the pouring rain
After a simple breakfast, Cheng Xia originally wanted Chen Shi and Yang Lihua to teach her embroidery, but she gave up after doing it for a while. She couldn't do this light and patient work, and she felt a headache just looking at the delicate stitches.

Lin Xiu had to take care of Xiaolong and didn't have time to play with her. Cheng Xia simply went back to the house and took out the candied wax gourd soaked in lime water that he made last night to replace it with clean water. Now Chen and Lin Xiu have already dealt with the same. I don't know except for this crucial step.Cheng Xia decided that when she came back from the market tomorrow, she would hand everything over to Chen Shi and Lin Xiu except for the crucial step. Then she would just divide up the money she earned. She didn't mind letting Lin Xiu and Chen Shi do it. Live better.

Yang Dalang didn't know where he went, and Cheng Xia didn't care about him at all, anyway, it's no surprise if he couldn't lose it, but what is she going to do next, she can't see what her pepper looks like , and I can’t pick roses, except for the weather, the small porcelain altar has not been brought back, and I can’t do it.

Cheng Xia hummed to the heavy rain, humming and suddenly sang an accompaniment song she had heard in dance class, inadvertently, Cheng Xia began to dance in the room.

Her mother and father's education philosophy for her is to do whatever they want, and they don't insist on not being whipped, and they don't say they are slowing down, so they usually support Cheng Xia in whatever she wants to do.Dancing and guzheng are the only talents Cheng Xia learned when he was a child, and they are both very good at it. Cheng Xia thinks that it is not necessarily worse than the ancients.Her classical dance teacher once said that when Cheng Xia put on an ancient dance costume, flung her sleeves and moved her lotus steps lightly, she looked like an ancient person, because she had more ancient charm than others.

So she returned to the Ming Dynasty, and came back to the countryside to experience the various life styles of the folks in the Ming Dynasty.

The room is too small and the clothes are too restrictive. Cheng Xia didn't enjoy dancing very much. The last movement of lowering her waist was retracted. Before Cheng Xia could stand still, she heard the sound of applause from the door. Cheng Xia knew it without thinking. , Yang Dalang again.

Cheng Xia fiddled with her clothes to cover up her embarrassment of being peeped, she curled her lips and didn't intend to talk to Yang Dalang.

Yang Dalang waved the things at hand to Cheng Xiaxian, Cheng Xia was taken aback, "What did you take?"

"Ladder, isn't the room leaking? The rain has been falling non-stop. If more places are washed away, we will have no place to live." Yang Dalang said, putting on the bamboo hat that was just draped on the mountain , grabbing the ladder to go to the back of the room.Cheng Xia saw it, and hurriedly followed, just kidding, although her husband has a lot of secrets, but he is not feeling well, but it's true, let him climb the ladder to repair the roof in this heavy rain, in case he can't bear it She couldn't afford to fall.

If she falls and becomes disabled again, then she doesn't have to leave after three months, she can just stay here and serve Yang Dalang forever.

Cheng Xia hurriedly found a bamboo hat and followed, and saw Yang Dalang set up the ladder ready to climb up, Cheng Xia quickly grabbed his hand, and said with lingering fear, "Don't, I'll do it."

Yang Dalang watched her hold his hand and the corners of her mouth slightly opened, "I'm a man, how can I let a woman do it."

"Oh, it's okay, we are different from other people, so we don't need to care about this little detail." Cheng Xia asked Yang Dalang to help him climb up.

Yang Dalang looked at the suddenly emptied hands and felt a sense of loss in his heart. He could only watch Cheng Xia climb to the roof, leaving him with two huge unbound feet.

Yang Dalang watched her big feet swaying and swaying helplessly, fearing that she would become unsteady and fall, so he quickly helped the ladder up, not daring to think about it.

Standing on the edge of the roof, Cheng Xia looked at the roof corresponding to the new kang, touched it but couldn't see where it was leaking, so he simply spread the meadow that Yang Dalang had just given him, and adjusted it slightly , then climbed down the ladder, clapped his hands and raised eyebrows at Yang Dalang triumphantly, "Isn't it amazing?"

Yang Dalang grabbed her hand and cleaned up the dirt on her hand with rainwater. Seeing that she was about to pull out her hand, he quickly held it tightly, "I got stabbed somewhere, and cleaned it quickly to avoid infection."

"Oh," Cheng Xia stopped moving, and let him scrub himself.

After cleaning with the rainwater, Yang Dalang ignored the ladder and dragged Cheng Xia into the room, just as Mrs. Chen came out to pour water, he smiled gratifiedly when he saw the two of them. Xia was embarrassed for a while and wanted to get rid of him, but he said that he was pinching his injured place, afraid that it would not be easy to heal after being drenched in rain.

Cheng Xia found out that Yang Dalang was fond of touching her during this time, which is not a good phenomenon, Cheng Xia decided to correct it slowly.

Yang Dalang cleaned Cheng Xia's wound meticulously, and then let her go, "Go and play."

to play?She is not a child.

But now it's raining and I can't go out to play, so it's better for two people to exchange ancient entertainment.

"Can you play chess?" Cheng Xia looked at Yang Dalang expectantly.

Yang Dalang paused when he turned the pages of the book. He couldn't say no to Cheng Xia's watery eyes. He nodded, "I'll write a little more."

"Then let's play chess, it's boring." Cheng Xia was eager to try.

Yang Dalang really made chess pieces, chess boards and chess boxes out of a box, as if he had conjured them up.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Cheng Xia pushed both hands, and lay on the bed out of boredom panting, "I can't play with you, so I won't play anymore."

This is called knowing a little bit?Cheng Xia curled her lips in disdain.

Yang Dalang smiled dotingly, "What else do you want to try?"

"Hey," Cheng Xia sat up abruptly, her big eyes shining brightly, "Do you know poker?"

Nonsense, of course he didn't know.

Seeing Yang Dalang shaking his head, Cheng Xia raised his eyebrows and smiled proudly, "How about this, I'll make the cards first, and then I'll tell you how to play, how about the two of us come and try?"

Chess is the specialty of the ancients, Cheng Xia lost with confidence, she didn't think it was Yang Dalang who was smarter than herself, if she could still lose when they played poker, then she wouldn't have to live.

Cheng Xia took the hard wood pulp paper on Yang Dalang's table, it was somewhat transparent, but it didn't matter, the two sheets were pasted together, Cheng Xia still remembered what each of the 54 cards looked like, but she couldn't draw them completely The pattern can only be as simple as possible.

Yang Dalang looked at her quietly for a while, and then started to help her make cards, Cheng Xia couldn't help but admire, this girl is really smart, a child can be taught.

Let Yang Dalang mark symbols on each card according to his own instructions, and after finishing it, put it aside to dry for a while, Cheng Xia took advantage of this time to explain how to use the poker cards, and only said that he often talked with Da Lang when he was at home. Huawan, so I figured it out, Yang Dalang was smart enough not to ask.

After explaining the simplest blackjack rules, Yang Dalang said he knew how to play.

Cheng Xia stared at him dumbfounded, "Don't you need me to say it again?"

"No need," Yang Dalang waved his hand, and officially began to deal the cards.

After one round, Cheng Xia completely collapsed on the bed and couldn't get up. She felt that her IQ had been despised by her eyes, and she had already started to think about whether her supervisor had let her go to graduate school.

Yang Dalang made her howl amusedly, and then pulled her up to continue playing. After three rounds, Cheng Xia stopped whining, and directly moved a small stool to the door and began to mourn spring and autumn.

Cheng Xia glanced back at Yang Dalang and saw that he was enthusiastically starting to study other uses of playing cards. Cheng Xia sighed, who said that ancient people were not as smart as modern people? lost to the ancients.

Cheng Xia stared blankly at Qingxian Village in the rain. It was only a short time since she came here. Cheng Xia actually found that she had feelings for this place, and she was really reluctant to think that she might leave here in the future.

What the heck.

Cheng Xia watched, and found a woman walking towards the gate of the fenced yard, without an umbrella in the heavy rain, holding something in her arms, walking straight towards her home in a daze, the appearance was a bit scary.

Cheng Xia couldn't help but stroked her arm, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"What's wrong?" Although Yang Dalang didn't look directly at Cheng Xia, he was still keenly aware of her small movements, so he put down the poker he just played, walked behind Cheng Xia and patted her on the shoulder.

Cheng Xia pointed blankly at the woman who stopped at the door of her house, and pulled Yang Dalang's sleeve in fear, "Where is this woman from?"

Yang Dalang frowned, stared at the woman for a moment, and finally shook his head, "I haven't seen it before."

"I think she looks like she came directly to our house, she must be looking for someone?" Cheng Xia guessed.

Yang Dalang shook his head, "I don't know, why don't you go out and have a look?" Yang Dalang was very satisfied with Cheng Xia's word 'our family', and couldn't help but follow her words.

Cheng Xia hesitated for a moment, then saw Lin Xiu also came out of the room and found the woman, turned around and asked Cheng Xia, "Sister-in-law, is this your natal family?"

"No, I don't know her." Cheng Xia spread her hands, "Or is it Mother's relative?"

"Where does Mother have any relatives?" Lin Xiu said directly, "I'll ask Mother if I want to let her in."

Lin Xiu really went to ask Mrs. Chen, and in the end Lin Xiu and Mrs. Chen went to the door with umbrellas. Cheng Xia saw them standing for a while from a distance. The rain was so loud that she couldn't hear what they said, so she saw Chen supported the woman, and Lin Xiu took her back with two umbrellas.

Cheng Xia got up and clapped her hands, "I'll go over and see, do you want to come together?"

Yang Dalang shook his head, "I'll continue to study poker."

Cheng Xia grinned and let him go. When she arrived at the main room, she saw Mrs. Chen greeting the drenched woman with great concern. Lieutenant Yang stood beside her with a livid face, as if very angry, but she couldn't tell that she was angry again. What annoyance.

Yang Erlang came in curiously and took a look, but felt that there was nothing to see, so he slipped away again.

Cheng Xia looked at this woman coldly. She had always believed that if there was nothing to do, she would go to the Three Treasures Hall. This woman went straight to her own house after skipping the neighbor's house. Xi pretends to be a good person.

Just as Cheng Xia wanted to ask something, he heard a baby crying.

Cheng Xia was stunned to find that there was actually a baby hidden in the woman's arms.
