She would love nothing more than to be a proper lady, but with no money or connections, no sons in the family, constant disputes with neighbors, and fierce relatives, she’s forced further and further down the opposite path… Watch as this feisty country girl blossoms into a radiant force of nature!
Chapter 30: the best black belly Xu Xing'er kept a lamp in the kitchen, waiting for Shanzi to enter the house, and no one came back, so he whispered at the back door: "Shanzi Ge, what are you still playing with outside, don't come back to sleep." Shanzi turned to see Xu Xing'er standing at the door of the room, with an oil lamp in his hand. The dim and shaking fire reflected her pale face very warm. Before she could open her mouth, she said: "tomorrow, you need to get up early. You need to go to bed earlier. Those medicinal materials... If they can't be used, don't blame my father. He doesn't understand those things. I'll take them back slowly later." "Am I that kind of person?" Shanzi listened to this, the warm feeling just now disappeared, and some inexplicable fidgeting rose in his heart. He was too lazy to pick up and left the herbal medicine in his hand. He said, "I didn't take me as an outsider just now. How can I get up now? If you say that, how can I save you two times? How can you return me?" Xu Xing'er didn't expect that his words would cause Shanzi's reaction. For a moment, he was a little bit blocked. He looked down at his tiptoes and said: "as the saying goes, brothers know how to settle accounts. It's because you've saved me two times, and I don't know how to repay you, so you can't lose any more, can't you?" After Shanzi said that, he was also shocked. Instead of feeling comfortable, he was more and more depressed. It seemed that something was fluttering to rush out of his heart, but it was always stopped by the invisible things, which made people worried. But at this time, Xu Xing'er's lonely look under the light, more stabbed his heart. He turned his mind, and he stood up and said with a smile: "I don't sing all the songs in the play, and I don't think I can repay myself. I'm willing to make a promise. I'll save you two times for you, and you'll give me one time. You're still taking advantage!" Xu Xing'er heard that Shanzi was making fun of him, so he was relieved. The pressure on Shanzi just now was so overwhelming that she immediately began to explain in disgrace. Now that he has returned to his normal, he also said with a smile: "Shanzi Ge, you don't usually come here, haven't you heard about it?" "What did you hear?" Shanzi continued to pick herbs, but he didn't look up. He just picked up the ending to express his doubts. "There is a saying in our village that Xingyuan three can't be aroused, Shanhong forest fire Xu's daughter..." Before Xu Xing'er's words were finished, Shanzi burst out laughing. After laughing for a long time, he forced himself to ask: "who made it up? It's quite catchy." "It's compiled by the private school's Mr. , poor scholar." Xu Xing'er curls his mouth, "the Xu family's daughter here says that I'm shrewd, and people in the village say that I'm shrewd. I'm sure I won't be able to get married later!" "It's not right to give it to me. I'll take you and save the people in your village." Shanzi couldn't help laughing when he thought of that sentence, but when he saw Xu Xing'er's mouth looking at himself, he could only try to hold back and blush. "It's just that, if you don't say it, you'll laugh at me." Xu Xing'er simply sat on the threshold, put the oil lamp beside him, waved to Shanzi, and said: "Shanzi Ge, you come here to pick, and it's more brilliant. Let's talk, and you can continue to teach me." Shanzi quickly gathered the herbs on the ground and held them to Xu Xing'er. With a man, it seems that the time flies a little faster. Shanzi quickly sorted out the herbs, and tied the same kind of herbs with straw ropes, and then put them in the back basket to go to the market. Xu Xing'er yawned and asked vaguely: "are you ready? Put it in the house, or else it will be dew in the morning, so it's better not to air it." Shanzi brought in the back basket, scooped up water and washed his hands, took over the oil lamp in Xu Xing'er's hand and said: "you go to sleep quickly, see how sleepy you are." Xu Xing'er was lazy to turn around and enter the house, and put his hand up to him as good night. Shanzi suddenly said, "do you remember that it has been promised to me." Xu Xing'er heard that he was stung by the threshold and fell directly in front of him. "......" Shanzi didn't expect that she would have such a big reaction. She reached for someone and was so scared that she didn't dare to make any more jokes. She pushed her into the house and went to the east house to sleep. The next morning, Li's voice rang out in the courtyard: "third, I heard you're going to go to the market? Take my Yingzi with you." Suo'er was woken up by her voice. Because she didn't wake up normally, she felt very uncomfortable. She wiggled a few times in the quilt and cried loudly. Lizi was woken up by Suo'er and didn't know what was going on. When she heard the crying, she didn't want to be outdone and cried louder than Suo'er. Xu Xing'er got up in a daze and shouted out of the window: "we're going to go to the market, not to be a thief. Can we still go before dawn?" Li was stunned by what she said, but immediately added: "I'm not afraid that you're going to rush to the early fair, so I'll tell you quickly, then I'll go back first and let Yingzi come back after breakfast." Xu Xing'er didn't care what she said at all. He got up with a face full of displeasure. He first peed for Suo'er and then changed Lizi's diapers. Then he went out to wash and prepare breakfast. Soon, Shanzi also came out of the East Room in an orderly way. When he saw Xu Xing'er, he came up to help. Xu Xing'er said with some embarrassment, "did you wake up?" "It's OK. I usually get up early. In fact, I woke up early. But seeing that uncle didn't move, I didn't get up, so I'm afraid that I might wake him up." "It's still you who are fastidious." Xu Xing'er muttered, but no matter how dissatisfied she was with Li Shi, she never said bad things about her family in front of outsiders. It has to be said that she is very similar to Ye Shi at this point. Xu Xing'er is still looking forward to the market, so he soon got up, cooked porridge, heated Steamed rolls, cut salted vegetables, filled sauce, pulled some onions and vegetables in his garden, and soon placed a table. It's eating here. Someone picked the curtain and entered the house. Xu Xing'er looked up and almost sprayed the Congee in his mouth. Fortunately, she tried to hold back and swallowed it. She was choked and coughed on the table. The person who came is Xu Yingzi of Xu's second family. He is the same age as Shanzi. He is taller than Xu Xing'er. His eyebrows and eyes are a little like Li's, but he looks soft and less annoying. The main reason why Xu Xing'er almost sprayed Congee is that she was wearing a new year's cover. It was originally a cotton jacket. Although it was also a single layer of cloth, it was big and thick and very strange when she was wearing it in the summer. "Sister Yingzi, you... Are you here to change your clothes? Xu Xing'er didn't mean to say it directly, so he could only ask in a roundabout and implicit way. "Well, it's all packed up. My mother said that I'll come and wait, and I'll go out with you at that time." Xu Yingzi looked down at his clothes and pulled the skirt again. He didn't think there was anything wrong, so he looked up to Xu Xing'er and smiled. "Cough." Xu Xing'er is a cough that can't stop. Shanzi raised his hand and patted Xu Xing'er's back, saying: "she was not well after getting sick in the rain, so she kept coughing." "Oh!" Xu Yingzi nodded and said, "you have to be careful. Otherwise, you can rest at home. What can I buy for you?" Xu Xing'er turned his eyes and said, "this Xu Yingzi looks gentle and harmless. In fact, it's like a complex of Chen's and Li's. a black belly with a little abacus is not terrible, and a top product with a little cry is not terrible, but a person with a black belly and a top product with a small abacus will become a little unacceptable." Although her family's evaluation of her is very good, but Xu Xing'er has not been waiting to see this sister. She used to quarrel with her, but at that time, she was a straight temper and didn't turn. Every time, she was angry, beaten people and then went home to be scolded and beaten. Now naturally, it's time to change strategies. So Xu Xing'er smiled and said sincerely: "it's OK, I'm just sick and depressed, so I want to go to the market to see the excitement. My father and Shanzi Ge are afraid that I'm not good, so they all said they would accompany me. If I don't go, what else can I do? " Xu Yingzi's eyes flashed, and he didn't say anything else. He just said in a soft voice: "it's like this. Now that the sister has gone, she should pay attention to her body and take more clothes. It's cool on the mountain road. It's better not to be more serious." he said that he was still unconsciously touching 90% of his new clothes. "Thank you for your concern, sister Yingzi. Xu Xing'er replied with a smile, and then continued to drink Congee. Their own conditions are not good, and they haven't made new clothes for a long time. The cloth distributed to each family during the Spring Festival is basically made by Xu Laosan or Ye Shi, and then Xu Xing'er picks up Ye Shi's clothes, and Ta'er picks up Xu Xing'er's clothes. If it had been in the past, Xu Xing'er would have lost face. But now that she has changed her body, how could she care about this poor trick? She would rather wear a bit shabby than wear a winter suit to cover her sweat in the summer. After breakfast, Xu Xing'er took a piece of clothes at random. When he went out, he saw Xu Laosan pushing a wheelbarrow out, and there was a big bag on the ground. Shanzi went up to help Xu Laosan carry the bag to the car, and then waved to Xu Xing'er: "don't always stand still, hurry up!" Xu Xing'er is sitting on the left side of the unicycle. Ye Shi has been padded with straw mats under her body for a long time. She doesn't feel flurried when sitting up. Her arm is just on the middle of the car beam. She raised her hand to pat the right pocket and asked, "what's the head here?" "Grain, take it out for rice." Xu Laosan carried the shoulder belt on the car, and then held the handlebar with both hands, and lifted it easily. "Big sister, big sister!" Ta'er ran out with an oil paper umbrella higher than her, "big sister is holding the sun." "Oh, my Ta'er really loves my sister. Xu Xing'er reaches for Ta'er and kisses her in the face. "It's not necessary to take an umbrella, it's too tired to hold, just a straw hat." Shanzi took off the straw hat and threw it on Xu Xing'er's head. The straw hat is Xu Laosan's. Xing'er is too big to cover her nose. She adjusted her position, and then she said with a smile: "I'm enjoying myself now. It's an old Buddha's outing!" "What is Buddha?" Shanzi can't understand what she said. "It's just the Bodhisattva!" Xu Xing'er quickly made up a cover and turned to Xu Laosan and said, "Dad, let's start now?" Xu Laosan nodded and said: "you sit still, don't ramble, it's not fun to fall down." Several people went out to meet Xu Lingzi in the front yard and rushed to the market together.
