Back to the Countryside

He Gui entered the house excitedly, and entered the main room with a happy face, and when he saw He Zhen was there besides his parents, his expression became a bit restrained, "Your brother is also there?"

"My brother is so happy, but what good happened?" He Zhen wiped the tears from her face and asked him pretending to be innocent.These days, he was crying and begging his father to forgive him every day, but the other party never pretended to him, if he was locked at home all the time, how could he find Mr. Zheng, when he ran out of medicine after January, it would be all over.

"Oh, it's nothing, just heard a few jokes just now!" He Gui casually found an excuse to prevaricate him, and casually glanced at his father.

He Tian met his eyes and understood in his heart, he waved to He Zhen impatiently, "Stop bothering me these days, go back to your own room and stay."

Now that he had already been chased away, if he said more, it would probably only make the other party angry, so He Zhen had no choice but to go out with red eyes.

He Gui kept watching him go out, followed him to the door and looked around, making sure that he had returned to the house, then turned around and said happily: "Father, mother, it's over!"

"Really?" He Tian stood up excitedly, and said worriedly: "Are you sure it's done, there's nothing wrong with it?"

"I'm sure!" He Gui took out a post from his pocket and handed it to him, "This is the post that I asked the matchmaker to send over the horoscope and the portrait. The date of entry has been set, ten days later People will come to carry people."

He Tian took it over and looked at it, but couldn't see why, and he couldn't read, so he asked, "What about the dowry? How much?"

He Gui is also illiterate, so the matchmaker passed it on to him, and he asked about it in detail, "20 taels of silver."

"Only 20 taels?" Qian frowned dissatisfied, "Back when Qi Yue married He Ling, he paid back 50 taels!"

"Mother, it's quite a lot. This is cash. Master Ma also gave me two boxes of silk clothes and a box of silver jewellery!" He Gui lowered his voice and said, "My younger brother is just married to be a young man. These are considered decent. What's more, I don't want to give you money." There is no need for our family to pay the dowry."

When she heard that the clothes and jewelry were returned, Qian's face became better. Thinking about the fact that he can also get money for the family in the future, her dissatisfaction with her son will be gone!

He Tian also thinks it is reliable, he can get rid of that troublesome brother and get some money for the family, this is the best of both worlds, "Let's be careful these days, don't let Zhen brother know It’s a matter of time, marry someone out as soon as the day comes.”

"Father, don't worry, we will keep our mouths shut!" Even if he doesn't tell, He Gui will keep this secret, if he finds out, he will definitely be a fool.

He Zhen stood outside the door, tightly covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened in disbelief, they actually wanted to marry him off as a child? !Master Ma?Isn't that the landlord of Shangzhuang Village?An old man who is almost 60 years old! !

If he really married like this, then what happiness is there for him in this life? His husband is to be a handsome young man like Qi Yue and Zheng Yuefeng, not some old man with one foot in the coffin, then he It's better to die!

Because of his anger, his eyes were bloodshot, red and scary, even so, he didn't dare to let himself make a sound, if his parents and elder brother heard it, they would definitely lock him up!

He Zhen looked up at the empty yard, and listened to the voices in the main room. A trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, and she quickly walked across the yard, opened the concealed door and went out.

How could he obediently let them marry him off like this? They got the money, but they didn't think about his feelings at all. Now everyone in the family regards him as a drag and tries to get rid of him. He won't let them get what they want, he wants to live a better life than them all!Let them all envy him!

Finally seeing the familiar green brick and tile house, He Zhen quickened her pace, threw herself on the door and slapped vigorously, even if it hurt her hand, he couldn't care less, and just begged the people inside to open the door for him quickly!

He felt that it had been a long time, or maybe it wasn't long, but he felt that it was a long time. The door in front of him was opened, and when he saw the person he admired so much, tears rolled down He Zhen's eyes, "Brother Qi... ..."

Contrary to his excitement, Qi Yue frowned when he saw the person standing outside the door.The sound of knocking on the door was so urgent, he thought it was Lin Sheng's family and there was something wrong, if he knew it was him, he ignored it, "He Zhen, we are not that familiar, it's better to call him by his first name! "

"Brother Qi, help me, please help me!" He Zhen stretched out her hand to grab his sleeve, but was avoided by the other party. He didn't insist, and tremblingly withdrew his hand, crying uncontrollably.

"If you came to my door looking for bad luck, forgive me for not entertaining you!" Qi Yue raised his hand and was about to close the door, he was not in the mood to watch him cry here!

"No!" He Zhen put her hand on the door, pleading all over her face, "I beg you Brother Qi, my parents...my parents and the others, they want to marry me to the landlord and make me a child!"

Qi Yue sneered when he heard his words, "Isn't this great? As you wished, you finally married a rich man!"

"But he is almost 60 years old!" He is older than his father, how can he be his husband, "Brother Qi, I am not yet 16 years old, if I marry him, my life will be over!"

With his hands behind him, Qi Yue raised his eyebrows and said, "So?"

"Brother Qi, you..." He Zhen looked at him with tears in her eyes, bit her lips, and sobbed: "You marry me as a child, I will be obedient, I will never argue with my cousin, I will be good Respect him, he will serve you well, so just accept me!"

Qi Yue's face darkened, and a cold light flashed in his dark eyes, "Your ability to talk to yourself is getting better and better. Who and where are you going to marry, does it have anything to do with me?"

He Zhen cried even harder, tears falling down "patta pata", as if she was about to lose her breath, "That's a fire pit, Brother Qi, do you want to just watch me being pushed into the fire pit?! "

"Fire pit?" A sneer appeared on the corner of Qi Yue's lips, and his eyes became colder, "Isn't this what you guys arranged for Ah Ling? Now my Ah Ling is guarded by me. There must be another one for this fire pit." People come to dance, don’t they?”

"Qi, Big Brother Qi..." He Zhen was shocked by his eyes, as if he had returned to the day when he and He Ling got married, the other party looked at him like this, making him feel like falling into an ice cave!

Seeing his reaction, Qi Yue suddenly smiled softly again, he was as usual, like a gentleman, he nodded at him, and said: "Little brother of the He family, I won't drink your wedding wine, May the two of you grow old together."

The door closed in front of his eyes with a "bang", and He Zhen's legs softened and she fell to the ground, as if all her strength had been sucked out. Only now did he realize that even if one day he died in front of Qi Yue, he would never Won't take a second look!

He looked around blankly, not knowing what he should do, so he just went back obediently, and was carried into the landlord's house ten days later to be a child?No!no!He can't just give up like this, Qi Yue can't do it here, isn't there still Zheng Yuefeng?That person would never be as cold-blooded and heartless as him!

He Zhen wiped away the tears on her face with her sleeves, slowly got up from the ground, took one last look at the closed door, turned her head and left.Just such a door completely separates his life from He Ling's. One is beautiful and the other is miserable. He has worked so hard to get nothing, but what about the other party?Relying on his appearance, he has everything easily, he is not reconciled, and he will not give up just like that!

Holding a bowl of noodles, Mrs. Zheng raised her hand and knocked on the door of He Zhen's house reluctantly. She raised such a simple-bodied person every day and had to send it to him. If she hadn't been married off in ten days, She is not willing to serve him!

There is no way, no one in this family can do this job except her, needless to say, the parents, the eldest brother is now a lunatic, locked in He Ling's former room, and the sister-in-law has to take care of him and the child every day Well, it's not convenient for He Gui, the elder brother, so he can only work hard for her, the second sister-in-law.

After knocking inside several times, there was no answer, Zheng rolled his eyes, knowing that he must be losing his temper again, so he raised his voice and said, "Brother Zhen, I'm here to bring you lunch, I'm in! "

After finishing speaking, without waiting for a reply from inside, he opened the door and walked in, muttering, "I said, don't be angry, after a few days, your father and mother's anger has subsided, and you..."

While talking, she raised her head, but found someone in the room. Her heart skipped a beat, she put down the bowl in her hand, and looked carefully at the bottom of the cabinet and bed. When she was sure that no one was there, she panicked and ran away go out.

He Tian and the others were eating around the table in the main room, when they saw her rushing in in a panic, they frowned.

He Gui put down his chopsticks and asked, "You were kicked out by a ghost, what are you doing running so fast?"

"Oh, something happened!" Mrs. Zheng was not in the mood to be poor with him, "Brother Zhen is gone!"

"What?!" He Gui stood up suddenly and raised his voice.

"Have you read it carefully?" He Tian also stopped his chopsticks, and lost the mood to eat.

"Of course I've seen it!" Zheng was worried, if this person was lost, who would they marry after ten days, "I even searched under the bed!"

With a sullen face, He Tian got up and went out of the main room, and went straight to He Zhen's room. There was no one in the room, and he stood there with an increasingly ugly expression.

"Head of the family, our Zhen'er ran away from home, right?" Qian's heart was anxious and angry, it was all right, why did she disappear?

He Gui looked over the room carefully, and said, "Father, he has all the same clothes!"

He Tian didn't answer the call, and if there was nothing missing, then he didn't run away from home as planned in advance, but ran out suddenly.

"Father..." He Gui looked at his face, and said, "Is it possible that my younger brother heard what we said last night, and he didn't want to, so..."

He Tian also thought the same in his heart, if it wasn't so, he wouldn't have dared to run out without saying a word, "Marriage has been the order of parents since ancient times, and the words of matchmakers, how dare he run out?" unwilling?!"

"Father, calm down. The question is, where can we find him now?" He Gui is also a big-headed person, and he knew that if his younger brother found out about this matter, there would definitely be trouble. Will marry a bad old man who is over fifty years old and be a child!

"Boss, do you think he will go to find Qi Yue?" Qian Shi still knows a little about his brother, knowing this kind of news, he will definitely ask him to go there, even if the other party doesn't want to see him no matter how much !

He Tian thinks this is possible, but it has been so long and there is no movement, which means that he must have been dismissed by the other party. Their family is now in his heart, just like enemies, it would be strange to pay attention to him!

"Why don't we look for it in the village first?" He Gui obviously had the same idea. In fact, he even suspects that He Zhen is not in the village now. Apart from Qi Yue, he still thinks about someone else!

"Go and inquire first, and see if anyone in the village has seen him!" He Tianchang sighed, feeling that he had been unlucky in eight lifetimes, and that he would have such a brother who would cause trouble for him!
