Shen Rong gave the gift and left Taohua's house despite Shen Yuan and Taohua's attempts to keep her.

When she passed by Taohua's front yard, she saw Changsheng carrying an eight-immortal table into the yard.

Changsheng's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Shen Rong, but when he realized that Shen Rong looked as if she didn't see him, the light in his eyes immediately dimmed.

Shen Rong pretended not to see Changsheng, turned her head away, and left Taohua's house.

Changsheng watched Shen Rong leave and stood there in a daze for a long time. His shoulders, which were carrying the eight-immortals table, slumped a little and his face was full of loss.

After Taohua got married, Shen Rong went collecting herbs with her two sisters-in-law and basically never went to the village entrance again, so she rarely saw Changsheng.

During the time when Changsheng was not helping in the fields, Lu mentioned him several times in front of Shen Rong.

"I thought Changsheng was a good person, but after just a few days of being attentive to Yue's family, he lost his patience." When Lu said this, she was a little annoyed with Changsheng.

Shen Rong didn't know what Changsheng did every day, so she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Originally, the villagers were waiting to see how Changsheng would coax his wife, but it turned out that Changsheng went to work in the next village with Ergouzi every day, going out early and coming back late. Gradually, everyone gave up the idea of ​​watching the fun.

Most of the people in the village who want to hold a wedding will do so after the busy farming season.

After the two peach blossoms in the village got married one after another, Shen Rong's uncle's cousin was about to get married.

Uncle Lu specially drove a ox cart to pick up Shen Rongniang to her parents' home one day in advance.

Lu's maiden home is in the neighboring Qingshan Town. It is called Qingshan Town, but in fact it is just backed by a mountain, and it is named Qingshan Town because it is very close to Qingshi Town.

When Lu's brother from her natal family gets married, both Lu and his wife will go.

In the end, the eldest and second sons were left at home to look after the house.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen Wu took Shen Rong, Shen Dongting and the three little girls to Shen Rong's grandmother's house.

Lu also specially put on the hairpin that Shen Rong gave her.

Here, Changsheng worked hard for nearly a month and finally saved up 400 yuan in wages. With the money in his pocket, he couldn't wait to take Ergouzi to the town to buy jewelry for Shen Rong.

Changsheng entered the silver shop with more than 400 coins in his pocket and immediately fell in love with a silver hairpin in the shape of a hibiscus flower.

He stood in front of the counter for a long time without moving.

Changsheng didn't know that the money he brought was not enough to buy the hairpin.

Er Gouzi knew at a glance that the hairpin was not something that could be bought with just a few hundred coins.

He then opened his mouth to persuade: "Changsheng, this hairpin is too expensive, you can't afford it with the money you wear."

Changsheng still stared at the hairpin without moving.

The waiter next to him saw two men in shorts staring at the jewelry on the counter as soon as they came in, and he was a little confused about what they were doing.

When she heard the short man say that he didn't have enough money, and saw the tall man staring at the jewelry on the counter without moving his eyes away, she felt a little nervous.

Is this person going to rob?

I don’t know if the waiter was thinking this, but even the shopkeeper at the other end of the counter was thinking the same.

The female shopkeeper gave the two waiters in the shop a look, and the two waiters came to Changsheng without saying a word and blocked his way.

When Ergouzi was a child, he was often bullied by others and was particularly sensitive to changes in other people's attitudes.

Two waiters blocked the road and looked at them vigilantly. Ergouzi immediately felt something was wrong.

This... why are they still blocking them?

Is this a shady shop?

But he had never heard that the silver shop in the town was a shady shop!

Besides, they are just two peasants and don’t have much money!

Er Gouzi's habit of longevity was different from others, and he never expected that there was a problem on their side.

He subconsciously moved closer to Changsheng and pulled his sleeve, "Changsheng, we don't have enough money, let's go buy it somewhere else!"

Changsheng ignored him and continued staring at the hairpin.

The shopkeeper stepped forward boldly and asked, "Sir, what do you like?"

Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed at the silver hairpin with hibiscus flower pattern.

The female shopkeeper looked at Changsheng, as if to confirm whether Changsheng really wanted to buy it, or...

The female shopkeeper did not show it to Changsheng, but only said, "Sir, this will cost three taels of silver."

After the female shopkeeper finished speaking, she stared at Changsheng and the other person, and the two waiters next to them were also staring at Changsheng with a fierce look.

Er Gouzi couldn't help but be influenced by the shop owner and the waiter. Based on his understanding of Changsheng, he knew that Changsheng would not do anything to steal things, but he was afraid that he would be beaten out by the waiter the next moment.

Changsheng didn't notice the expressions of the few people. He lowered his head to look at the copper coins in his arms, then slowly took them out and placed them on the counter.

Seeing Changsheng take out the money, everyone in the shop breathed a sigh of relief.

Er Gouzi felt relieved and said to Changsheng: "Changsheng, this money is not enough, why don't you change it?"

The female shopkeeper glanced at the number of copper coins that Changsheng took out, and then smiled, "Sir, here are some very good hairpins, and the price is suitable for you..."

The female shopkeeper took out a few thinner silver hairpins.

Changsheng frowned as he looked at the hairpin whose flower pattern had become much smaller.

This flower is too small and not pretty at all!

Er Gouzi said it several times, and Changsheng finally understood that he had too little money and couldn't afford a big flower.

Changsheng tilted his head and thought for a while, and finally, at the recommendation of the female shopkeeper, he picked the silver hairpin with the largest lotus flower, which belonged to Wang Shi.

Er Gouzi breathed a sigh of relief.

Changsheng wandered around the village every day, but he never had time to spend money on buying things, and he didn't know how to buy things.

Ergouzi was worried that Changsheng would be stubborn and insist on having the expensive hairpin. Fortunately, Changsheng was not stupid enough and could understand what he said.

Otherwise, if Changsheng made a scene, they would be kicked out as scoundrels, which would be a huge loss of face for them. They might even be taken to the authorities.

Ergouzi secretly warned himself that next time he should never take Changsheng to the town to buy things.

When the two returned to Taohua Village, it was already dark. Changsheng did not enter the house. He just shouted to his grandparents outside the yard to let them know that he was home. Then he excitedly went to Shen Rong's parents' home with the hairpin in his pocket.

Shen Chunsheng and Shen Xiachang were very dissatisfied with Changsheng coming to their house at this time.

At this moment, the two saw that Changsheng's attitude was very bad.

"What are you doing here? Don't you want Sanniang anymore? Sanniang is not at home, so go back to where you came from!" Shen Chunsheng said with a dark face.

The second son of the Shen family did not give Changsheng a good look either, and followed his eldest brother in agreeing with him.

It’s good enough that they didn’t hit Changsheng, so what’s the big deal about saying a few harsh words?

When Changsheng heard what his brother-in-law said, he felt like the sky was falling.

Sanniang is not at home. Where did she go so late?

Could it be...

Changsheng's mind was in a mess, and he didn't know what he was thinking for a moment. His whole body seemed to be drained of energy and spirit, and he became listless, muttering, "No, I won't change..."
