Xiaoyao Nongjiazi

Through the gap in the window, Zhong Wen listened to the shadowy voices coming from the main room, feeling jealous and resentful.They were all from the Zhong family, so why was she the most unlucky and ended up dying?

Zhong Wen thinks so is not without reason. A few days before Zhong Qingran's accident, she fell into a nightmare one night. In the form of a bystander, she experienced the girl in the dream who was only a little older than her but looked exactly like her. bit by bit.Childhood events almost all flashed by. From the age of ten until the girl died, all major events are vivid in my mind as if I had personally experienced them.

After that day, various fragments of the girl's life still reappear in the form of dreams from time to time, it's hard for Zhong Wen not to care.She compared what she had experienced with the girl in her dream, and found that there was no difference, which made her even more sure that the girl in her dream was herself.She believes that the reason why she has this long dream is that the girl wants to remind her not to make the dream come true.

Zhong Wen remembered that before the third brother's accident, everything in the dream was consistent. Since the third brother recovered from his leg injury, except for the climate and other things that have nothing to do with people, many other things have changed.She is distressed, does this mean that she has changed something, and these things will affect the subsequent chain of related things?

For example, Zhong Qingran's high fever persisted at that time, and his leg injury worsened, which cost the Zhong family a lot of money and made him lie down for more than half a month.Could it be that the days of recuperating are too boring, causing the third brother to think about food?

Because of Zhong Qingran's discovery, the Zhong family made a fortune, which gave Zhong Xin hope to marry into the Chen family.Originally, Chen Xiucai had nothing to do with Zhong Wen, she shouldn't know about him, she couldn't bear Chen Xiucai's great ability, at the age of 19, he was a high school candidate, not to mention the villages in this area, even Pingyang County is rare, the girl in the dream heard It is not surprising that there are only a few words.

The problem lies in this, it has to be replaced by someone else, Zhong Wen is not like this, it is not good to choose anyone, but it is Zhong Xin.She will never forget that the Zhong family has nothing to borrow, and when her parents took her to beg Zhong Xin, her husband's family obviously had money, but she never even asked for it, and just looked at them with a gentle face. , talking about her difficulties, and then casually sent a few copper coins to settle the matter.

When it comes to hatred, Zhong Wen is especially fond of Zhong Xin, it's just that he has no chance, so there has been no movement.Zhong Wen was also impulsive at the beginning, thinking that the third brother was going to fall off the mountainside anyway, instead of letting his grandma abandon her and try to protect the third brother in the future, it would be better to cut off their thoughts completely.Who would have thought that the third brother's fate would be fatal, and the delay in treatment did not allow him to go to hell, and he became more powerful.

Since then, Zhong Wen felt a little guilty every time he saw Zhong Qingran. After all, if there was no such thing as a dream, she had grown up so much. Although she was a little jealous of the third brother, she still couldn't do the thing of refusing to save her relatives.Fortunately, she has more than ten years of experience with the girl in her dreams, and her thoughts are much more mature than before, so she didn't show any flaws.

Zhong Wen doesn't regret what she did, if not for that, the Zhong family wouldn't be earning so much money now.Thinking that Zhong Xin might take away most of the Zhong family's wealth, she felt hatred again.There was a lesson, she was not allowed to fall a second time in the same place.

The Ming family laughed happily in the main room. Just after accepting the ceremony, they will soon be asked for their names. Not surprisingly, Najib can also pass this step smoothly, and the next step is Nazheng, which is commonly known as Wending .At this point, the two families are considered to be completely settled. If one party backs out, it will basically be the rhythm of the two parties' collapse.

Ming sent the matchmaker away, entered the eldest daughter's room with a smile on her face, and sent out the bell and chime. The mother and daughter stayed in the room for a long time before doing their own things.

After two days of unhappiness, Zhong Xin's gossip spread outside, without naming names, but the target was very clear, and it was directed at the eldest granddaughter of the Zhong family.It's not a big deal, it's all those who dislike the poor and love the rich, selfish, in order to marry into the Chen family, they took most of the family's wealth and so on.It sounded like a sound, and it wasn't too bad at first, but after people who were dissatisfied with Zhong's family or even Zhong Xin himself added fuel and jealousy, it really became a gossip, and later it became even more unrecognizable.

The Zhong family couldn't suppress it even if they wanted to. In the end, even the Chen family in Hengshan Village heard about it and sent a matchmaker to ask about it.

Zhong Xin shed a tear when she heard about it, she was close to being engaged, but unexpectedly this happened, if the marriage fails this time, it will be even more difficult in the future.Zhong Xin wiped away her tears, a dark light flashed in her eyes, she gritted her teeth in her heart for those who spread rumors, if she knew who was behind them, she would repay them a hundredfold.

Gritting his teeth, Zhong Xin dug out some of the small pieces of blueprints he had taken from his third brother, and with a hard heart, he went to find Ming.Soon, I saw Ming family hurried out and went to Chen's house in person.

Now that the Zhong family is in a difficult situation, everyone is thinking about who has an enmity with the Zhong family or Zhong Xin. With such a ruthless method, rumors can destroy a person, especially a woman.This time Zhong Xin was lucky, there was no more unsavory rumors.You must know that being forced to leave a message to ruin your life happened more than once in the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially for those Yunying unmarried girls. Without the blessing of the family, it would be a sure thing.

In the past few days, the Zhong family has been in a state of uproar. Seeing that it was really outrageous, Mr. Zhong went to the family.

"Patriarch, fellow elders, everyone must have heard about the outside world. I will say something bad today. If the clan doesn't care, then if something like this happens to someone's family next time, our little fifth room will not be ashamed." Just ignore it, maybe pass it on for another time, and then don’t come to me to reason.”

The patriarch and several patriarchs did not add to the flames. After all, this matter was not of much benefit to them, but it was not a big hindrance, almost negligible. Completely ruining people's reputation, the rumors will dissipate after a while, so they ignore it, who cares about Mr. Zhong, the owner of the fifth house, so close to calling the door.

"It's done, Zexin, I'll pass the order down in a while." This kind of thing has an impact on the clan, and since someone mentioned it, the clan leader didn't push back.

The clan's work was done very quickly, and within a long time, all kinds of rumors about Zhong Xin in Hewan Village were suppressed. Of course, this was only on the surface, and it could not be said in public, so why not communicate in private?

The disappearance of Hewan Village does not mean that other villages will immediately restore their former tranquility.When someone visits relatives and friends, gossip people can always talk about it. Fortunately, no one organizes this later, and the rumors only spread in a small area for a while and then slowly dissipated.

If you want to say who this matter hurts the most, Zhong Xin is the first to bear the brunt, and then it is the Zhong family's turn, and the Chen family is also involved, but it is not serious.

The Ming family didn't go in vain this time, the Chen family agreed reluctantly, but after hearing the rumors about Zhong Xin, they planned to go back on their word, so Ming's trip happened to be at this juncture, and the matchmaker Too late to visit the door for the second time.

Strictly speaking, what was said earlier was somewhat credible, but afterward, it was basically distorted. Based on this, the Chen family felt that Zhong Xin was not good for her mother's family, but not necessarily for her husband's family. Besides, after she arrived at the Chen family, she could still turn the page. Can't go out to heaven?Jiang is very confident in himself.

After negotiating with the Jiang family, the Ming family finally agreed to hand over part of the designs to the Chen family when they got engaged, and the rest when they got married.

After Ming arrived home, he directly told Tong the result, and ignored Tong's puzzled eyes, and went straight into Zhong Xin's wing.

Unexpectedly, this matter turned out to be full of twists and turns. Jiang was greedy for money and didn't want to marry a daughter-in-law with a good family background so as not to put pressure on her, but he forgot that there was an uneasy young son at home. Their family was counting on him. Really. If you annoy him, you can only end in a loss-lose situation.

With scruples in their hearts, the Chen family couldn't let their tempers treat Chen Xiucai.Coincidentally, for some reason, rumors about Zhong Xin spread to the ears of Chen Xiucai, who was studying at the county academy. He immediately asked for leave and rushed home, asked Jiang in detail, and confirmed that most of the initial rumors were true. After that, despite the objections of his parents, he insisted on refusing to marry.

He doesn't have much affection for his close relatives, so it's okay to leave the farm. Once he enters the officialdom, Zhong Xin will have more contact with the wives. He is afraid that one day he will do anything that doesn't suit her, and his life may be lost. He can't To marry such a chilling wife.

Jiang couldn't hold back his youngest son, thinking of the large sum of money he was about to get slipping away from his hand, his heartache was beyond words.Chen Xiucai ignored Jiang's attitude and urged her to find a matchmaker to reject the marriage.

Jiang had no choice but to follow his younger son's wishes.

Seeing the matchmaker coming to the door again, Ming went out with a smile, but the matchmaker didn't even take her seat, and directly stated her intentions.

Ming's face turned black on the spot, and asked unceremoniously: "Sister Jiang, what is going on with the Chen family, is this marriage a joke? It's changed three times a day."

"It's from Zhengren's family. It's not the Chen family's fault. Whoever made your eldest daughter have a bad reputation? Scholars especially pay attention to this. The Jiang family is happy, but Chen Xiucai himself is not satisfied." As a matchmaker, he didn't want to offend the Zhong family, so he explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

Seeing that Mingshi wanted to say more, Tongshi rolled his eyes and stopped her next move.She was wishing that this matter would not work out, it was only because she and the old man had no experience in dealing with this kind of matter, and she still cared about the family relationship in her heart, seeing that the family had enough money, she agreed to Ming's impropriety expedient measure on a whim.

Later, the more the two elders thought about it, the more they felt that this matter could not be done in this way, but the arrow was already on the string, and they couldn't do it without it.Spoken words are like water poured out, family members are most taboo to swing at both ends, this kind of irrelevant matter, it is best not to go back on your word.

Now that there is such a good opportunity, how can the Tong family let the Ming family go on messing around.She politely sent Matchmaker Jiang outside the door, and returned the presents from the Chen family together with them.

Fortunately, the two families haven't exchanged sex notes yet, and the marriage has only progressed to the first step, so it's not considered a divorce. It doesn't hinder Zhong Xin's future marriage that much, and it is the rumors that have just been suppressed that have a greater impact on her marriage.

Seeing that Ming Shi was still standing on the hall in a daze, Tong Shi couldn't see her and sent her away.

Ming walked towards her bedroom as if in a sleepwalking, stepped over the threshold, and then woke up, thinking that her eldest daughter would suffer such a crime, her heart bleeds.This matter can't be trusted, so she changed her mind to the East Wing.

Zhong Qingran didn't go out that day, he was alone in his room writing and drawing, when he heard Ming's sharp voice, he frowned slightly, seeing that everything was calm afterwards, he didn't care about it, and immersed himself in painting again.Who would have thought that this day would not be a good time to draw pictures, and not long after, there was a seemingly indistinct cry, sobbing, accompanied by the sound of wind, which disturbed him from being quiet.

Zhong Qingran was disturbed once before, and he hadn't invested in it again, so he completely lost interest now.He put down his pen, opened the door and heard the crying sound coming from the east wing, but he wasn't sure which one it was.

This matter is easy to handle, just ask Mrs. Tong directly.

"Qing Ran, it's none of your business. The Chen family doesn't agree with your elder sister's marriage, and the matchmaker just refused." Tong said it lightly, as if it was just like buying cabbage.

Zhong Qingran understood that he shouldn't be in charge of this matter, just listen to it and let it go.His tolerance for eldest sister is only up to this point, whether it is good or bad depends entirely on her.He is more interested in the inexplicable rumors, who is behind the scenes?

Zhong Xin's idea made no waves at all.The atmosphere in the eldest room of the Zhong family was sluggish, but there was nothing unusual about the other rooms. Whoever told this marriage would be of no benefit to anyone else, it was normal not to be able to empathize.

Time does not depend on human will, time flies, and it is autumn harvest time in a blink of an eye.

The Zhong family has more than [-] mu of land, which is enough for the family to eat after deducting taxes.In previous years, most of the rice and wheat were sold and replaced with cheaper coarse grains, so as to ensure that the whole family could eat as much as possible.

Although Hewan Village is located in the north, it is still hot at the end of August.From the first opening of the sickle, it announced the official arrival of busy farming.

This is much more busy than the Zhong family digging the shrimp pond. There is no time limit for the construction of the shrimp pond, and you can rest when you are tired.If God doesn't reward his face, a few rains during the autumn harvest may wipe out a year's hard work.If you don't work hard at this time, when will you wait?

The weather has been good recently, but no family dares to take it lightly. Every family waits for their own wheat to mature, and then the whole family will work together to try to collect grain into the warehouse as soon as possible.

The Zhong family's fields are scattered, and the time for planting is also different, so we start from the earliest one.The whole family went out at dawn, and breakfast was settled in the field.

Prior to this, Mr. Zhong sent someone to the city in advance to inform his third son that Zhong Zhengli arrived home overnight, but Zhong Zhengxin did not show up as usual.

The Zhong family has had a good time recently, Tong's money is not so tight, the small spiral tube is enough, and the red crayfish can be seen almost every day, and the meat is bought every ten and a half months, plus each family fills in privately. Second, everyone's nutrition is decent, but when compared with Zhong Zhengli, who is fair and tender, with a slightly plump figure, he is immediately inferior.

After all, no matter how well one party eats, the sky will have to withstand the wind and rain, and Zhong Zhengli, as a restaurant cook, lives in the kitchen every day, with plenty of oil and water. After many years, the gap between the two sides seems really big.

Every time Zhong Zhengli came home, the happiest thing was his wife and children.Zhong Wen is already a ten-year-old half-grown girl, when she sees her father, she still hangs on her body like a child.The Zhong family has seen such a scene many times, and they would say a few words at the beginning, which is too unruly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tong didn't care about it anymore, they are all farmers, and there are no such big rules. Since her parents don't listen to the teaching, her parents are happy, so she doesn't mention such trivial matters.

Zhong Wen was bored in her father's arms, laughing wantonly and freely, and she was the happiest at this time. Although she usually had a smile on her face, it always made people feel that it was not so real, as if separated by a layer of veil, which seemed frivolous. , but how can not penetrate.

She hasn't been sleeping well recently, and she will be awakened by nightmares from time to time, and she is quite haggard. This time, she doesn't need to deliberately apply dark powder on her face, and she can go out to meet people directly.Nesting in her father's arms is the most relaxing time for Zhong Wen, but unfortunately, such time is very rare.

Since when did this happen?It seemed to be so long that even Zhong Wen himself couldn't remember it. It's been a month, right?Well, yes, from the day I started making red crayfish at home, everything seems to be different...

These days are the busiest time for the farm.

Those of the Zhong family who were able to go to the fields went to work in the fields, and the remaining children were not idle, hunting pigweed, watching grain...there were so many things they could do.Zhong Qingran no longer hangs around this year, his mother and aunts are busy with the autumn harvest, so he started the red crayfish business on his shoulders, and he didn't even take care of his own small business. Since Jian Mingyu said yes, he took full control let go.

It was Zhong Qingran's first time to go out of the stall, and he was watched by all the aunts. This is a rare thing. The baby of Zhong's family is actually helping the business, and he still looks good. Can they not be curious?Although they had heard that Zhong Qingran was selling red crayfish in an outer village before, no one paid much attention to it. They all thought that the young man from Jian's family was taking care of the stall, so Zhong Qingran just put on a show.

However, everyone just looked at it as a surprise. Afterwards, what should be done?

The busy farming season means that the food business will be much better than usual.

Everyone usually saves food and money, but these days we can’t save it. Whenever the family is not unable to open the pot, they will buy some meat to supplement the hard work of the family. Meat can’t afford it, and try to feed the family’s laborers.

The Zhong family sells red crayfish, with small snails as well, and the business is booming.Zhong Qingran had no time to spare. When people were busy, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, a few days passed quietly.

Zhong Zhengli only had two days off. On the third day, he took a boat back to Pingyang County early in the morning. Mrs. Zhang took her three daughters to the pier until there was no one in sight, and then went home dispirited.

"Mother, you have to go to the fields in a while. It's still hot today, so be careful, don't try your best, and you won't get heatstroke and be scolded by grandma again." Zhong Wen said softly.

"Wen'er, mother is in good health. Your grandma won't follow her to the ground this time, and she won't focus on her. Mother is not stupid, and she won't treat herself as a strong laborer." Zhang smiled and looked at the three daughters in a row. , Not without regrets in my heart.

Zhong Wen didn't say any more, but he went to the field every now and then, with all kinds of excuses, delivering water for a while, and hot summer soup for a while, which attracted the attention of Mrs. Tong who had been busy in the kitchen.

As a result, nothing happened that day, Zhong Wen lowered his eyes, suppressed the doubts in his eyes, and sent soup to the field frequently the next day, which was unanimously praised by Zhong's family.

After Zhong Qingran heard about it, he couldn't help paying more attention to this third cousin.It doesn't matter if Zhong Qingran makes this observation because he is afraid of being missed by others, the mystery in his heart finally has a chance to be solved.

The more he paid attention, the more Zhong Qingran felt that there was something different about Zhong Wen.He usually greets people with a smile, doesn’t talk too much, doesn’t do too much or too much work, doesn’t get talked about, and isn’t top-notch. Overall, he feels a bit like a transparent person, with a low sense of presence.It was only these two days that Zhong Qingran heard a few words from the third cousin from his family.

It's not like Zhong Wen didn't feel Zhong Qingran's casual glance, but she still persisted in acting in a way that was different from the past.These days, she has been troubled by nightmares almost every day, and a little guilt and hatred are intertwined in her heart. She doesn't want the scene in her dream to come true.

Zhong Qingran had doubts in his heart, and first ruled out the possibility of time travel like him.Judging from Zhong Wen's words and deeds, she is an out-and-out citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his intuition told him so.For the rest of the rebirth, prophecy, etc., Zhong Qingran didn't know what kind of situation it was, and he couldn't be sure about the others. He would not be wrong about the fact that Zhong Wen was abnormal.

Zhong Qingran was a little dazed, Yuanshen didn't have such hateful things in his memory, so he was overbearing, at most he was jealous and hated by his brothers and sisters, and it wasn't so serious that his relatives would not save him.Regarding this, he has no clue, he can only guess, maybe Zhong Wen really has the ability similar to foresight or simply reborn.

If it is a rebirth, then it is certain that Zhong Wen must not have existed before his rebirth, otherwise, where would it be his turn to make a move like a small conch and a red crayfish?

After confirming this point, Zhong Qingran felt that there was a light on his back, and there was always a person who had a foresight, which always made people feel unnatural.It seemed that he acted more carefully in the future, and his originally lax mind became vigilant again.

After Zhong Wen sent soup for a few days, he simply left the field and stayed by Zhang's side.

"Xiaowen, I don't need your help here, go home quickly." Mrs. Zhang raised her head and found her eldest daughter was bending over a small body, struggling with the straw.

"Mother, it's okay. I still have to work when I go home. Mother is working so hard. I will accompany her." Zhong Wen made up his mind not to leave.

Mrs. Zhang really felt a little tired, so she started working again after she owed her waist, and said in a low voice: "What are you messing around, can cutting grass and feeding pigs be compared to this? You can try it, and you will go back in a while, good boy! "

Zhong Wen looked at Mrs. Zhang's face, but didn't insist anymore: "Okay, mother, I'll leave after a while when I get tired."

Mrs. Zhang didn't say any more, and the sisters-in-law next to her looked back at her twice, and then ignored her.

Zhong Wen's thoughts were divided half on Mrs. Zhang, thanks to the business she was in charge of, there were only two or three litters of wheat, otherwise how could she keep up with Mrs. Zhang who was adept at it.
