Back to the Countryside

In the middle of the night, someone knocked on the door of He's house. The person who opened the door was He Gui. He was just about to take off his clothes and go to bed when he heard the knock on the door.

Today they searched Gushui Village all over but couldn't find He Zhen. Then they heard that someone saw him go to the town, and the family was very annoyed, so they planned to go to bed early today and take the Zhao family's cow tomorrow. Car to the town to find someone!

He opened the door and saw a middle-aged man in cotton clothes standing outside, he was full of doubts, "Who are you?"

"Is this He Zhen's house?" The middle-aged brother asked directly with no expression on his face.

He Gui's heart skipped a beat when he heard that name, wondering if He Zhen had offended someone, so he bit the bullet and nodded.

The middle-aged brother didn't say anything else, he turned sideways, and saw two younger brothers get off the carriage behind him, and even dragged a person from the carriage, he said in surprise: "He Zhen? "

The two brothers pulled him over, pushed him to the ground at his feet, and then backed away.

The middle-aged brother looked down at him with disdain, then raised his head and said to He Gui: "Take care of your family members, if you let him provoke our Zheng family, it won't be so simple."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for him to ask more questions, he took people into the car and left.

Watching the carriage disappear into the night, He Gui felt startled and uncertain. He didn't dare to think any more, so he dragged the pale-faced He Zhen from the ground, took her to his room and closed it, then went to knock on He Tian's room. Door.

"What's the matter so late? Who came just now?" He Tian opened the door in a coat, and Qian Shi also followed in doubt.

He Gui said with a serious face, "Someone brought He Zhen back just now."

"What?" Surprised, Qian asked, "Who is it?"

He Gui told them what happened just now, "He must have gone to the town to find Master Zheng."

After hearing what he said, He Tian's complexion became very ugly, his brother is simply a troublemaker!He pushed He Gui away, and went to He Zhen's room with a dark face.

His room was pitch black, and there was no light on, only a vague figure sitting on the bed, He Tian turned his head to Qian and said, "Light on the light."

Qian groped in, went to the table and lit a candle, and the room was lit with warm yellow candlelight.

He Zhen sat there with a pale face, didn't look at them, and lowered her head, wondering what she was thinking. He Tian strode over, slapped him on the face, knocked him sideways, and threw him on the bed.

"Then who is the Zheng family, you dare to provoke them! It will implicate the whole family!" He Tian was full of anger, wishing he could be beaten to death.

He Zhen looked up at him, her eyes were red and full of resentment, "Family? You're going to sell me to a bad old man, I have nothing to be afraid of!"

"What? Are you not satisfied with this marriage?" He Tian calmed down a little. He took a few steps back and sat down on the stool by the table. "Based on your current conditions, who else do you want to marry?"

"It's better to marry anyone than an old man who is nearly fifty years old!" After He Zhen yelled, she softened her tone again, "Father, he is older than you, how can you marry me to him?"

"Hmph, at least marry a landlord, you can eat and drink without worrying about it, do you think that ordinary people can afford your medicine?" He Tian asked him back, "You also went to see Qi Yue and Mr. Zheng's family today. , is there anyone willing to marry you?"

He Zhen pursed her lips and couldn't speak, his hands tightly gripped the bedding, the two of them not only didn't want to marry him, they simply avoided him like a plague god.

Seeing that he had nothing to say, He Tian snorted again, "Since we all understand, why bother to humiliate ourselves."

"They can't, there are others, Dad, give me some time, I will definitely find someone better!" He Ling lived so well, how could he lose!

"Time? He Zhen, all the money in the family has been lost. When your medicine is finished, do you think you have any spare money to buy it for you? At that time, you will have a bad face, not to mention good people, just beggars on the side of the road I won't even want you!" Seeing that he was still obsessed with his obsession, He Tian slapped the table angrily.

He Zhen lowered her head and said nothing, although she felt unwilling, but every word He Tian said was pierced in his heart.He only hated the injustice of God, which made him suffer from that strange disease, and made him so miserable.

"Think about it for yourself!" It's late at night, He Tian is not willing to spend time with him here, anyway, this marriage is a certainty, he has to marry whether he likes it or not!

He got up and went out, and said to He Gui, "The door of his room has been locked for the past few days, so your wife can continue to deliver meals to him."

He Gui nodded in response, "I know Dad, I won't let him run away again."

"To the town?" Xu Hua turned his head and looked at He Ling who was helping him mend his clothes.

The injury on his hand has basically healed, but he can't do some delicate work for the time being. He Ling came to visit and saw that he was sewing clothes, and his right hand was still a little clumsy, so he took over the work.

"That's right, didn't you promise Miss Zheng to look for her last time?" He Ling's hands were quick to do what he was used to. Go join in the fun."

"A promise is a promise..." But he didn't expect to pass it so soon, and he thought about talking about it later.

"Just treat it as being with me!" He Ling lowered his head and bit off the thread, unfolded the clothes and saw that there was nothing wrong with it, and stuffed them into his hands, "And don't you have some money now, buy two bolts of cloth for you and It would be nice for Uncle Xu to wear new clothes."

The 30 taels of silver Xu Hua hasn't touched yet, and has been collected well. He thinks about the old clothes on his father, and thinks what the other party said makes sense, and he is the second best, but he really has to make a new one for him, " Alright then, let's go together."

He Ling smiled and rolled his eyes, "It's only fun if everyone goes together!"

Xu Hua also smiled, now that his father's health is getting better day by day, the big stone in his heart is finally gone, and he is willing to do things that young brothers love to do, after all, he is only 17 years old .

He Ling carefully looked at his smiling side face, and found it very attractive. After watching for a long time, it will make people unable to take their eyes off. That kind of good-looking is not soft, the kind of brother's appearance that everyone loves, He should be more handsome, like a young man, but he is undoubtedly attractive, at least he thinks he looks good!

As soon as Xu Hua turned his eyes, he saw He Ling staring at him intently. He subconsciously wiped his face, but he didn't see anything, and asked in confusion, "Why are you staring at me?"

He Ling imitated Qi Yue's usual way of pinching his face, stretched out his hand to pinch the other's face, and felt that it felt good, "I was wondering why Brother Hua is so good-looking!"

Xu Hua covered the place that was pinched by him, a red cloud appeared on his face, "What are you talking about? You are good-looking."

"I think Brother Hua looks better!" It's not without reason that Zheng Yuefeng would like him. Thinking of this, He Ling rolled his eyes and asked, "Brother Hua, what do you think... Mr. Zheng?"

"Mr. Zheng?" Although he didn't know why the other party asked him, Xu Hua still thought about it seriously and said, "Although he is a young master from a rich family, he has never set his eyes above the top. People can't figure it out, it's weird."

"How strange?" He Ling asked curiously, he thought it was quite normal.

"Hmm..." Xu Hua recalled carefully, "His attitude is always inexplicably eager, and sometimes flustered, incoherent and he doesn't know what he's talking about."

He Ling finished listening to the music, which is so strange, obviously because he likes him, but he is not qualified to make fun of Xu Hua, didn't he not realize it before, he is really stupid, "Then you will like a man like him ?"

"Like?" Xu Hua was taken aback by his question, and then laughed, "What joke are you talking about, how can I be worthy of him!"

"What's not worthy of him!" He Ling thought he was very good, so he asked in a different way, "Then you can think that he is not some young master, but just an ordinary guy. You will like his temper." ?"

Xu Hua lowered his eyes and thought for a while. If the other party was just an ordinary guy in the village, he should be a good person with his temperament. He is very good to friends, loves his sister, and has no bad habits. With a smile on his lips, "Maybe."

Then it's not like Zheng Yuefeng has no chance at all?He Ling thought to himself, if these two people can make it, it will be considered a good marriage, and now it depends on whether Young Master Zheng is persistent enough.

Xu Hua didn't pay attention to these things he asked at all. Zheng Yuefeng is not an ordinary country guy. The one he would admire must be the beautiful and self-cultivated young lady. The intersection between them will be as it is now. , plain and light.

The so-called gatherings in the town are actually some outsiders who regularly bring fresh gadgets for sale, and also buy some local specialties, usually for three days, which is very lively!

When Qi Yue and the others arrived in the town, the space for people to look after the carriages was almost full, one can imagine how many people from ten miles and eight villages came here to join in the fun.

"It's a town after all, it's really lively!" Xu Hua supported his father and walked with them on the street, feeling that his eyes were not enough to see.

"Although it is lively on weekdays, there are not as many people as there are today!" He Ling was protected by Qi Yue to avoid being bumped by people coming and going. He stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance. It's a human head.

"Be careful, don't get knocked down!" Qi Yue pressed his shoulders to protect himself, and at the same time turned his head to tell Xu Hua, "Be careful with Uncle Xu, don't get separated from us!"

Xu Hua nodded, and moved closer to them again. He was not familiar with this town, and if he separated from them, he would be in trouble.

Qi Yue took them to his own medical clinic first, and took a carriage ride for more than two hours. Afraid that Uncle Xu might be tired, he went there to have a cup of tea and rest before it was too late to leave.

He arranged for the three of them to sit first, and asked a clerk in the store to explain a few words before he went into the inner room to look for them.

"Doctor Qi is really young and promising, he has a shop in the town at a young age!" Xu's father watched him sit down and exclaimed.

"Uncle Xu is ridiculous, but it's just a small shop." Qi Yue took a sip of tea from his cup, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional: "It's not as good as Mr. Zheng, and nearly half of the shops in this town belong to it." The Zheng family."

Xu's father was taken aback for a moment, his mood was very complicated, how could such a family be able to climb so high!

Xu Hua was also a little surprised. He only knew that Zheng Yuefeng's family was rich, but he didn't expect to be so rich!

He Ling patted his leg under the table, and was held by the other party. He glanced at him dissatisfied, and said, "It's rare that Mr. Zheng has such a family background, but his temperament is approachable!"

Qi Yue squeezed his soft hand, raised the corners of his lips and smiled, his Ah Ling seemed to want the two of them to achieve good things, "Yeah, except for the occasional jumping off, it's very easy to get along with!"

Father Xu knew that they were speaking for himself, and he understood their intentions. It wasn't that he didn't like this child, but he was just afraid that his brother Hua would have a hard time walking.

It's too late, just click it once in a while, if you talk too much, the other party thinks too much, Qi Yue diverts the conversation, and discusses with them where to play next time!
