Hard work

Chapter 18 Rumor [Second update]

Lan Hua'er was a little thankful that the money she brought out was not a lot.

Gaihua works in the town, and she has to count her wages every time she goes back and forth, so naturally she knows how to count.It's not too much for her to learn a little from her elder brother in her spare time.

Yang Langzhong just nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The age gap between the two is too big, and there is nothing to talk about.Lan Hua'er lowered her head and looked around, and felt that the cleaning was fairly clean, so she gave up the idea of ​​helping.After sitting for a while, he dragged his dog and said he was going back.

Yang Langzhong smiled and said:
"That's right. You two little dolls are just bored in my room. Go back quickly."

Lan Hua'er stuck out her tongue, led Goudan and went out again.

She didn't expect that she would run into a roadblock not long after she went out.

Those who blocked the way were two young girls who looked about ten years old, and they were both pretty.

The one in front is wearing a red jacket, a light peach skirt underneath, and a red hair tie.Even though it's the first month of the month, it still looks beaming.The face is a little baby fat, round and round, which is a blessing at first glance.

The little girl in the back is shorter, her face is a little sharper, and she even dresses more plainly, and the material doesn't look that good.But with a clean suit and bright eyes, it still makes people happy to look at.

The two stood on the side of the road as if they were just waiting for the orchid.Seeing Lan Huaer approaching from a distance, she jumped out.

Lan Huaer looked at them with her chin raised.

It's not arrogance, it's just that her current body is too short.Young and malnourished, he looks like the first three or four-year-old children in other people's homes.If you don't look up, you can't even look at other people's faces.

The little red girl sized up the orchids, and then shouted:

"Orchid~"

At the end of the shout, the voice rose, showing infinite joy, and it really was a beaming one.

Lan Hua'er saw that she was really looking for her, so she had no choice but to stand still.After thinking about it, he shouted, "Little lady...".

Then he pulled the dog egg and asked him to follow suit.Goudan obediently followed suit.

Helpless, she doesn't know these two people.

The little red girl didn't mind either, she giggled, patted her chest, and said:

"Sister Lanhua'er doesn't come out often, so you don't know me. I'm a big girl in the village chief's house, so you can just call me Aru. During the Chinese New Year, I was slapped in the face. But I was in the room at that time, and you didn't see her." I, I can see you."

Then he pointed to the plain girl with an oval face behind him:

"This is Xu Sanlang's girl in the town, her name is Axu."

Miss Axu was gentle and quiet, she looked like a young lady from a small family, she smiled at Lan Huaer.

Lan Hua'er saw that they were two good girls.He quickly called his name again.

Aru became even happier and asked:
"Lan Huaer, do you really want to be Brother Tie Sheng's child bride?"

At first, Lan Hua'er thought she was hallucinating.She didn't even have time to put away the smile on her face when she greeted her, and she still squinted her eyes slightly with a kind expression on her face. She didn't expect to be asked such a... unanswerable question.

She began to reflect on what she had done wrong.

Or did Lan Hua'er actually have some baby relationship with Tie Sheng?This can explain why Uncle Fugui's family took care of her like this.But she has never heard of this matter, and Gaihua has never talked about it.

She then stood in the middle of the road and became dazed.

Seeing her like this, Aru put his hand on her shoulder and shook, asking:
"Is it true? Everyone in the village is talking about this matter now. They say that your family can't live on, and they will sell you to Brother Tiesheng's house as a child bride. Let me tell you, if you really like Tiesheng Brother, that's all. I'm not saying Brother Tiesheng is bad. But you two are so far apart, how much money can you sell for? If you want me to say, it's better to grit your teeth and support it. When the dog's egg is bigger, Isn't it better at home."

Lan Huaer was in a daze all the way.After finally listening to Aru's words, she finally realized that the gossip probably came from somewhere.Since Aru said so, it must have been two days before the story was spread, and it was at a time when it was hotly discussed.

No wonder she always felt that when she went out, she had strange eyes behind her, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

In her mind, she quickly went through what happened and the people she met after she traveled, and quickly found out the suspect.

It's just that one person who has been in contact with, who has a broken mouth, and who will spread such dirty rumors, right?
Seeing that Lan Huaer didn't speak, even Axu, who had been watching quietly from behind, hesitated and said:

"Sister Lan Hua'er, at home...it's really not possible."

Axu looked at the old patch on Lan Hua'er's body again, and felt that she couldn't continue speaking.She is older than Aru, and she is in the city, so she is more able to read her face.Although he is not often in the village, he can see the difficulties in Lan Huaer's family better than Aru.

Although I feel that this is inappropriate, I feel even more that it is impossible to persuade.

Whose family has to sell their sons and daughters only when they can no longer survive.

Lan Huaer continued to be in a daze.

She didn't know how to answer this question, and she also felt that the person who said that was really hateful to the extreme.

Child bride, isn't that the same as selling a living girl?Everyone in the village said so.

If this word got out, not only Lan Hua'er's family would be despised, but even the Tiesheng family who bought a child bride would be looked down upon.

Such a nice family, why can't they say a daughter-in-law?

To actually pay for a daughter-in-law to go home, is there something wrong with the family, or is it because the daughter-in-law is working like a cow and sheep, so she has to take the daughter-in-law's deed of prostitution in her hands.

If this is implemented, Lan Hua'er will not be able to marry in the future, and Gaihua, Tiesheng and Goudan will not need to talk about their daughter-in-law.

No one would be willing to marry their daughter-in-law to such a family.

So Lan Hua'er thanked Aru a little bit.

The girl looked a little impatient, but her heart was not bad.

Although people thought that her orchids were really going to be sold to Tie Sheng's family, they should be grateful for the fact that they were blocking the way to persuade them instead of watching jokes behind their backs.

She looks like a good girl!

Lan Huaer gave Aru and Axu full marks in her heart.

This matter is not dealt with too much.

Lan Hua'er looked up at the two little girls timidly.Goudan was so frightened that he hid behind Lan Huaer.He is still young and doesn't understand what it means to be a child bride.

"I don't know, Brother Gaihua didn't tell me."

Orchid shakes her head.

Aru showed a surprised expression:
"Hey, are you keeping it from me?! This is not going to work, you have to make it clear quickly!"

Orchid has a headache.

The red and beaming girl is indeed enthusiastic, but she is a little too ostentatious.
