i have a fortune pen

Carpenter Huang stood up. He straightened his clothes, cleared his throat, looked at the New Year picture, and opened up the conversation.

I mean, that was 30 years ago.

At that time, carpenter Huang and Nianhua Chen were still in the age of cardamom.

Carpenter Huang and New Year Painting Chen fell in love.

Carpenter Huang's family is not bad. Seeing that he has reached the age of marriage, the family is talking about finding a wife for him, but he is obsessed with his carpentry work and has no intention of doing so.

Although the family asked him many times, he sent him away in a nonchalant manner. The family had no choice but to think that he was still young and had no intention of getting married.

But by chance, his family found out that Huang, a carpenter, often dated Chen Jinhua from the same village, and they seemed to be very close.

So, the carpenter Huang's family talked to him and asked about it.

Carpenter Huang said that he had made a private decision with Chen Jinhua for life, and she would not marry in this life.

Similarly, Chen Jinhua's family also found out that her daughter was having a relationship with the old Huang's boy, and asked her about the situation, and she also said that she had made a private appointment with Huang Dahu for life, and she would not marry Huang Dahu in this life.

The family members are very helpless and feel very ashamed. You said that you are a big girl and that you have a private life with someone else. If it gets out, where will the family members put their face?

Rural people take face very seriously.

Huang Dahu's family members took the initiative to propose marriage to Chen Jinhua's house.

He also said that his boy had already made a private appointment with Chen Jinhua for life, and he didn't give any betrothal gifts.

Chen Jinhua's family was very angry. Your old Huang's family is no longer a thing. You even threatened them with Huang Dahu and Chen Jinhua's private appointment for life, and even pretended not to give the bride price.

Although as long as the two young people are in love, the bride price is easy to talk about, but it is not so bullying.

Huang Dahu's family members were so unreasonable, they frantically put on airs, saying that Chen Jinhua was no longer a big girl, and wanted to show their nobility through this.

But the Chen family is not a vegetarian either. Your old Huang family is talking nonsense with your mouth open, and my old Chen family will not be afraid of you. In the end, the old Chen family beat the old Huang family out.

The marriage between Huang Dahu and Chen Jinhua fell through like this.

Due to the pressure, Huang Dahu and Chen Jinhua didn't get too close for a while, they were afraid that their family members would be angry.

But both of them still remember the promise they made to each other.

Huang Dahu's family has a good family background and the young man is quite handsome, so those who came to their house to propose marriage to Huang Dahu almost stepped on the threshold of their house.

However, all of these were rejected by Huang Dahu, not because the girl was not good-looking, but because he didn't want to look for it.

As for Chen Jinhua, the situation is similar.

The girl is very pretty, and there are constant matchmakers.

But she also pushed them away, saying that she didn't think about it for the time being.

For this reason, she was often beaten and scolded by her father, but she held back because she still remembered the agreement with Huang Dahu.

In this way, after several years in a row, the number of people who introduced objects to them gradually decreased, because everyone knew that these two people would push, and it was useless to go.

By chance, the inheritor of Yuandu woodblock New Year paintings passed by the village and found that Chen Jinhua seemed to have this talent, so he told her parents that he would take her to Yuandu and teach her the craft of making woodblock New Year paintings, saying that he thought she had talent. , I don't want her to be buried in the village.

When Chen Jinhua's parents heard that a master would take her to a big city, they immediately agreed.

In this way, Chen Jinhua went to Yuandu to learn the craftsmanship of wood-block New Year pictures from her master.

In the middle, she also thought about going home and seeing Huang Dahu, because she still couldn't let go of the concern and promise in her heart.

But whenever she thought about this, she couldn't make up her mind, she felt that if Huang Dahu still read her words, he would come to her.

Speaking of Huang Dahu, he has been immersed in carpentry and has gradually become a very good carpenter. Those who build houses in the village and nearby towns will come to him and ask him to help make doors and windows.

Huang Dahu has been very busy.

Whenever he was free, Huang Dahu would also miss Chen Jinhua, but when he thought that Chen Jinhua had gone to Yuandu, he felt that their concern became distant.

He didn't dare to expect to continue to have a future with Chen Jinhua, so he only dared to think about it, and never dared to go to Yuandu to find her.

Lang has affectionate concubines who are interested, but they dare not take the first step.

A good marriage was wasted like this.

With their proficiency in their respective fields of business, they have all become leaders in the industry.

Especially Chen Jinhua, who has completely inherited her master's skills and has become a new leader in the world of woodblock New Year paintings in Yuandu, winning various awards.

Also as she got older, although she still remembered the agreement with Huang Dahu in her heart, she had no time to take it into consideration, and she gradually began to look away.

Although there will be apprentices accompanying her every year and festival, but after all, it is difficult to hide the loneliness and hope in her heart.

She hoped that it was Huang Dahu who was by her side at this moment, but after rubbing her eyes, she realized that it was not.

Time makes people old, and in a few decades, Chen Jinhua and carpenter Huang are also old.

After intense ideological struggle, Chen Jinhua decided to return to her hometown, Taoyuan Village, to spend her old age in peace.

Because here is her youth, her dreams, and her former lover. In the village, it is enough to see him safe and sound every day.

On the first day she came back, Huang Dahu took the initiative to come to her house to visit. He seemed to have a thousand words in his heart, but he couldn't say them for a while.

The land of Chen Jinhua also seemed to understand the meaning, and avoided it wisely.

Only Chen Jinhua and Huang Dahu were left in the room.

"You, are you okay?"

After a while of silence, it was Chen Jinhua who broke the situation first.

"En!" Huang Dahu agreed, then hurriedly shook his head, "No, not good!"

"What? Is it the sister-in-law who treats you badly at home, or the children treat you badly?" Chen Jinhua felt pain in her heart when she spoke.

"Ah?" Huang Dahu looked at Chen Jinhua with wide eyes, and hurriedly explained, "I have no sister-in-law, no children, and I'm still single!"

"Oh?"

Chen Jinhua just hesitated for a moment, lowered her head, and seemed to be lost in thought.

"You, what about you?" Huang Dahu asked timidly, "Why did you come back to your hometown alone? The old man left him alone?"

"Ah? Ah!" Chen Jinhua was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained, "No, I don't have an old man, and I'm single too!"

"You, you are also single?" Huang Dahu was surprised for a while, and then seemed happy, "How can you choose to be single all the time with your conditions?"

Chen Jinhua was silent, and then Huang Dahu was also silent.

It was Chen Jinhua's apprentice who couldn't stand listening outside, and ran into the house to rescue her master.

"Uncle Huang, isn't it because of you? The master often talks about you and thinks about you all the time. He said that he has an agreement with you, and hopes that one day you can come to Yuandu to marry her, but she has been waiting for you for 30 years. ah!"

"what?"

Huang Dahu stood up abruptly.
