husband, he picked it up [farming]

Hearing his refusal, Zeng Yuan only thought that he couldn't let go of face, so he persuaded him: "Don't be embarrassed, Fang Mu now lives at the foot of Changling Mountain, and with his conditions, no decent family would marry a girl to him. , and he often goes out to do business, and he needs someone to help him look after the house, you are a brother, just right, don't be stubborn, leave this matter to my cousin, and I promise to help you with it."

Chao Yan still shook her head.

His heart was sour and cold, because of his cousin's evasion, but also for his future.

Chaoyan stood up and said to him: "There is no limit to the way of man, I have hands and feet, and it is not a problem to make a living, so I don't need to bother my cousin."

He shouldered the burden, cupped his hands at Zeng Yuan, and was about to leave.

Zeng Yuan rushed over to hold him back: "The world is dangerous, how can I rest assured that you are outside? Don't worry, Fang Mu is reliable, and you will not regret following him. I will take you to find him."

Seeing that he was coming for real, Chaoyan wanted to break free, but worried that she might hurt him with too much strength, so she said in a hoarse voice: "Uncle, Fang Mu is my benefactor."

Zeng Yuan was taken aback, his face was burning with pain, but after thinking about it, he couldn't keep Chaoyan, and he couldn't let people leave, so he said hard: "Fang Mu touched you, he has to be responsible."

The last blood on Chao Yan's face disappeared, and he closed his eyes, feeling extremely powerless.

Seeing him like this, Zeng Yuan hurriedly dragged him out.

......

Fang Mu didn't know that trouble had come to him, he was sleeping soundly.

Fang Mu didn't get up from the bed until the approaching shouts woke him up.

He opened the door, and outside the door was Zeng Yuan, who had memories but was not familiar with, and Zhao Yan, who had just met, with a pale face.

Fang Mu didn't know why the other party came, so he asked in a good voice, "Uncle Yuan, why are you here?"

Zeng Yuan smiled and said, "I'm here to announce the good news to you."

Fang Mu looked confused: "Why do you like it?"

Zeng Yuan said, "I'm here to say goodbye to you."

Fang Mu was still in a daze.

Zeng Yuan glanced into the room, the meaning was obvious.

Fang Mu had no choice but to ask him to sit down, Zeng Yuan went in, Chaoyan was still in a daze, Fang Mu saw that he was still carrying a burden, he didn't know what happened to them, but now was not the time to ask, he just asked Chaoyan with his eyes.

Chao Yan only whispered, "I'm sorry."

Fang Mu was at a loss.

He looked at this and then at that, and decided to hear which family Zeng Yuan wanted to talk about.

Fang Mu walked back to the room and poured water for the two of them.

Zeng Yuan said: "You are also twenty-one now, it's time to talk about marriage and settle the lifelong affairs, so that your father can rest assured under the nine springs."

Zeng Yuan is from Xishui Village, so of course he knows the situation of Fang Mu's family. If anyone in the Fang family is someone Fang Mu still cares about, it is probably his father who died early, and his elder brother who has changed long ago.

Fang Mu nodded. Although he had not been happy in the past ten years and planned to die alone, he did not reject marriage. If someone made a match, he was willing to try it, so he listened carefully to what Zeng Yuan said.

Zeng Yuan asked again: "What do you think of my nephew?"

Fang Mu glanced at Chao Yan, not understanding the meaning of his words, but still nodded.

Zeng Yuan was satisfied, and said: "My nephew is a good brother, and he is capable, and he will be able to help you in the future. It is a perfect marriage with him. What do you think?"

Fang Mu was taken aback, and instantly understood what Zeng Yuan meant.

He glanced at Chaoyan in surprise, and the latter averted his eyes in embarrassment when he looked over.

Fang Mu thought about it, and probably understood what was going on, but judging by Chaoyan's appearance, it must have been not voluntary, so he said, "Uncle Yuan, I don't like brother."

Zeng Yuan was taken aback for a moment, he was only thinking of pushing Chaoyan to Fang Mu, but he really never thought about this possibility, seeing Fang Mu's refusal, he couldn't help but have a hard idea: "But you have a skin relationship with him, you... ..”

Chao Yan interrupted: "Stop talking."

Zeng Yuan looked at him with disapproval.

Chaoyan closed her eyes, her voice was full of exhaustion: "Biao uncle, don't feel guilty, I can support myself."

Hearing this, Fang Mu didn't understand what it meant.

This is obviously because Zeng Yuan didn't want to take the other party in, but he didn't want to appear ruthless, so he pushed people to him.

If Fang Mu knew that there was such a thing, forget it, he would have been saved, and it would be meaningless to talk about it.

If the bad guys have done it now if they don’t do it, Zeng Yuan simply insisted on it: “Think about it clearly, although Fang Mu’s mistake was unintentional, but you did have contact, if outsiders know about it, his reputation will be terrible.” It's ruined."

Chaoyan's face was pale, and she looked at Fang Mu pitifully and helplessly.

Meeting his eyes, Fang Mu's heart skipped a beat, somehow reminding him of his former self.

Before he met Grandpa Li, wasn't he also an idiot, no one wanted it, and everyone thought it was troublesome?

Fang Muxin sighed, and said: "Uncle Yuan, I understand what you said, Chaoyan can stay, but I have a request, please keep it a secret that he is a brother, you also know that I am away all year round, if you stay It's not safe for him to be alone at home."

Zeng Yuan didn't expect him to agree, and even made this request, and agreed repeatedly in a moment of joy: "It's no problem, after all, Chao Yan is also my nephew, and I hope he is well."

Fang Mu didn't want to talk too much about the character of the other party, so he issued an order to evict the guest: "I hope you will do what you say, and Chao Yan and I still have something to say, so I won't keep you."

These words were straightforward, and Zeng Yuan felt a little embarrassed, but after all, he did something wrong, so he didn't care about it, and got up to leave.

After sending Zeng Yuan away, the two sat quietly for a while.

Just when Fang Mu wanted to speak, Chao Yan said, "I'll be leaving in a while."

"Ok?"

Chao Yan looked at him, and said with some guilt: "Sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

"So you went to Zeng Yuan to join him?"

Chao Yan nodded.

"Where did you come from?"

"Chang far."

Fang Mu knew this place, he passed by it when he was on his business trip, and happened to see what it looked like after the flood had receded.

"Then your parents..."

Chao Yan shook hands and said, "We're dead."

Fang Mu felt that he had said something nonsense, if his parents were still there, Chaoyan wouldn't have to look for her relatives from thousands of miles away.

He was a little annoyed that he said something wrong, but he didn't know what to say to make it up.

He has always been good at dancing with long sleeves, but at this moment his mouth became stupid.

After another meeting, just as Chao Yan was about to say goodbye, Fang Mu said, "Let's stay."

Chao Yan looked at him.

I didn't know the identity of this person before, and I was able to face him calmly, but this meeting is a bit awkward: "The world is dangerous, you just went from Changyuan to Xishui Village, and the outside is not something you can bear. , but at least it can keep out the wind and rain, don't worry, as long as I have a bite to eat, you won't be hungry."

He was really embarrassed, and looked away after speaking.

Chaoyan was taken aback, and subconsciously said: "But you don't like brother?"

Fang Mu was silent, and made a promise: "I will try to like it."

Chaoyan's heart beat violently, he thought, this man is really a good person, and he felt even more guilty, because he was the one who caused him to fall into a dilemma.

"I'll make you like me more, too."

As soon as these words came out, both of them were taken aback for a moment, and then turned their heads one after another, both of them were embarrassed.

After all, Fang Mu was older, so he soon felt relieved, coughed, and said, "Then you should rest first, I'll go out for a while."

Chaoyan subconsciously asked, "Where are you going?"

Fang Mu explained: "I'll go to my elder brother's house to get a bed."

Chaoyan was stunned, her pale face just now finally turned red.

At this moment, he finally had the consciousness that he and this person in front of him were living together as a partner.

Fang Mu left.

He asked Chaoyan to rest, and it was impossible for Chaoyan to sit and wait. He looked around and had to say that Fang Mu's house was even more dilapidated than his previous home. It's not very big, Chao Yan visually measured the distance, and it's really difficult to arrange two beds.

Although the two said they wanted to live together, there had to be a process, and even Chao Yan couldn't accept it if they really wanted to lie together, not to mention Fang Mu.

But you have to get used to it.

He started to change the position of the plank bed, originally it was horizontal, and in order to make room for another bed, Chaoyan placed it vertically, so that not only could there be two beds, but also an aisle, but the square table had to be moved The soil stove was moved a little, but fortunately it did not hinder normal life.

After finishing all this, Chaoyan walked out of the room and strolled around the yard.

He raised his eyes and looked up, and what he saw was a lush greenery, from light green to green to dark green, with towering trees propping up the forest.

Compared with the eyes, it is really green to the end.

Now he believes that Fang Mu is not at home often, the front and back of the house are full of grass, he can see that Fang Mu is a hardworking person, because the house is cleaned cleanly, if Fang Mu is at home, Fang Mu will not let the grass grow to him Come up on the site.

But this is not a problem, he can slowly fix it.

As long as he stays, Chaoyan exhales, this day is really dreamy, making him feel like a dream.

On Fang Mu's side, he returned to the village and went directly to Fang Lin's house.

Food is grown in the fields this season, and Fang Lin is usually at home.

Xishui Village lives in poverty, so naturally there is no money to build houses. Unlike other villages, there are green brick roads or blue brick houses, and everything you look at is yellow.

The difference is that a house with a yard will plant some fruit trees.

Similar to pomegranate, persimmon and loquat.

The good thing is that although Xishui Village is not prosperous, it is clean.

Fang Mu is not at home for more than half a month, and usually stays at home when he comes back. He rarely goes to the village, and if it is not for something, he will not go to Fang Lin.

Fang Lin may not understand his brother's alienation before, but as he grows older, he more or less understands it.

One side is the daughter-in-law and the other is the younger brother. As a person who handles water, he can't be fair, so one side must be wronged, and Fang Lin's choice is obvious.

His wife bears children for him and manages a family, so it is inevitable that he will feel sorry for his brother.

There is nothing wrong with Fang Lin's choice of Fang Mu. If he hadn't been unable to stand his sister-in-law's gaze, Fang Mu would not have left home to make a living at a young age.

It's just that he thought of Fang Lin's goodness and cared about his difficulty, so he never said anything.

The two brothers also tacitly agreed not to mention these things as much as possible.

Fang Mu is not at home on weekdays, and Fang Lin will help him take care of the house, and he will go there every two or three days, so that the house will not be stolen and no one will know.
