102. Chapter 102(1/2)
The carriage drove out of the city gate and encountered someone who wanted to take the bus.
"Don't pay attention, just leave ours." Lu Cheng raised his head from Ningxiang's neck, tried hard to restrain his voice, and in a calm tone, he ruthlessly rejected the passers-by outside the car, and also broke Ningxiang's hope of avoiding his entanglement.
Lu Cheng is a kind-hearted person. If Ningxiang was not available, he wouldn't mind taking a few people back. But today it's rare that the two of them can spend more than 40 miles alone. Of course, he doesn't want to be disturbed. He proposed a marriage when he gets home. It's a good thing to propose marriage, but it's even more difficult to meet her in the future. Li will guard against him during the day, and at night there is another Guan Ping next to her with a sharp ear. Thinking of the time when he hugged her next time, Lu Cheng wished he would keep going this road and not stop.
After giving the order, Lu Cheng lowered his head again.
With the back of his head against the car board, Ningxiang was forced to raise his chin and almost grabbed the clothes on his back with his hands.
He was like a dog acting coquettishly with his master, constantly yelling at her neck, and the dog's mouth was even more busy, itchy and painful.
pain?
The scene of the previous life appeared in my mind. Pei Jinghan deliberately left traces on her neck. Ningxiang pulled it back instantly. While he was so immersed in eating that he forgot to bind her, he quickly raised his hand, pulled his earlobe and pulled it back hard.
Lu Cheng had to raise his head, his face turned slightly red, and his peach blossom eyes were burning. He looked at him with a burning feeling that he felt unreasonable.
Because she shouldn't have known that the traces would be left after using her hard work, Ningxiang turned her head, wiped her neck and whispered to him, "It hurts..."
However, when Lu Cheng was wiping, he saw a small red dot on her snow-white neck, which was exposed outside, and her collar could not be blocked, and he felt guilty immediately. Ningxiang secretly observed him. When he saw him like this, he bit his lip inside and pretended to be annoyed: "You sit there, I was angry with you yesterday. You are still like this today, I, I, I won't..."
Lu Cheng knew what she was going to say, so he let her go honestly and moved outside.
Ningxiang lowered her head and wanted to tidy up her clothes, but she saw that her skirt was lifted to her thighs by him. Thinking that since he met in the corn field, he would torture her like that in every private meeting. Ningxiang's face turned redder. After packing up, she looked out the window and ignored him with a tense face.
"Xiang'er, what did Aunt Third told you last night?" Lu Cheng touched his nose angrily, and had to keep his hands busy, otherwise he would always want to stretch out to her.
"I didn't say anything. After dinner, I slept with A Ying. She gave me this outfit in the morning." Ningxiang said softly.
Lu Cheng looked at her again and said with a smile: "It looks pretty good. When I make money, I will buy you this kind of material."
Ningxiang's eyelashes trembled, she looked down and whispered: "No, we live in the countryside, it's useless to wear such good materials. It's a waste of money if she accidentally cuts them. She has no requirements for dressing up. She is content with her clothes, and she can cover her body with some money. If she has some money, she chooses the color she likes to buy cloth. This is enough.
"If it breaks, buy a new one." Lu Cheng moved to her again. Seeing her nervously shrinking her shoulders and defending her, Lu Zhi stopped immediately and whispered: "Xiang'er, when you go back, I will start three new houses east of our house. Next year, you will live in a new house as soon as you get married."
Ningxiang blushed and didn't dare to think about what it was like to sleep with him on the same kang.
"Why don't we get married this year?" Looking at her peach blossom-like face, Lu Cheng felt itchy. "This year, I'm getting married, and I'm not afraid of sleeping alone in winter."
"Anan isn't sleeping with you?" Ningxiang raised the corners of her mouth and exposed his lies without hesitation.
"Anan is too young, her belly is warm and her thighs are cold." Lu Cheng said shamelessly.
Ningxiang angrily glanced at him, lowered her head and said, "No, it will definitely not work this year."
She had to watch her younger brother at home, but she couldn't feel at ease after that disaster.
Lu Cheng just said casually, after all, she was only fourteen, and even if she was willing, Xu Shouliang and his wife would not marry their niece so quickly.
I talk about the main business sometimes, and I secretly and tidy. The journey was too sweet. The forty miles suddenly became too short and I was about to arrive in Liuxi Village soon.
"Xiang'er, I'll take you home." Lu Cheng hugged the girl who wanted to get off his legs tightly, and said reluctantly.
"Let me down at the entrance of the village." Ningxiang couldn't dodge and didn't want to look up to face him, so she continued to lean on his shoulder.
The man's shoulders were wide and strong, and Ningxiang prevented him from going all the way. Now that he was about to part, she was reluctant to leave. She was ashamed to keep leaning in his arms like this, sweet and safe, as if as long as he was there, she would not have to be afraid of anything.
This is really the first time today, relying on him wholeheartedly, and there is no need to worry about being discovered.
She was so obedient that Lu Cheng couldn't bear to refuse.
Kissing her head, his body slowly calmed down.
"Wait, I'll invite my second aunt to come tomorrow morning." Lu Cheng whispered.
Of course Ningxiang believed him, and patted him open the hand that he wanted to hold her again, so he hurriedly picked up the curtain to open the car.
The bright sunshine came in, and he was worried about the coachman, and Lu Cheng had to watch his sweetheart get out of the car.
~
Ningxiang returned home. Li was about to cook. When he turned his head and saw his niece, he was stunned and stared at Ningxiang's clothes, "This..."
Ningxiang explained helplessly: "Suyue insists that I wear it back, aunt, wait, I'll go change my clothes first."
There were red marks on his neck that Lu Cheng had gnawed. Ningxiang didn't dare to be too close to his elders. She quickly went back to the west courtyard, said hello to Guan Ping, and then drove his younger brother out, quickly picked up a shirt with a higher collar and changed it into it. Looking at the white neck in the mirror, which was not strange, thinking of the throbbing when Lu Cheng leaned on it, Ningxiang was light and fluttering.
While eating, Ningxiang made up some interesting stories about the Hou Mansion for his family. After dinner, Ningxiang went to the west room after Amu fell asleep.
"Do you have any plans in the future?" Ningxiang sat on the kang, whispered to Guan Ping, then took out her sales contract before Guan Ping opened her mouth, tore it apart in front of Guan Ping, and smiled at her, "It's fate that we can get together. I have a today with Lu Cheng, and I want to thank you."
Since Guan Ping knew that she and Lu Cheng secretly met outside the door but did not show up on the spot, Ning Xiang guessed that Guan Ping took Lu Cheng over, and her original intention was not just to report Pei Jinghan. Fortunately, Guan Ping's "information" was made in advance, so she and Lu Chengcai did not have to worry anymore.
Guan Ping looked at the contract that had been torn apart by her and said in a funny tone: "If I don't like you, even if you force me with the contract, I will not be your maid. It's the same now, because of you and I can live a peaceful and stable life, so even if you tore up the contract with your contract, I will still regard you as my benefactor. Ningxiang, I have no father, no mother, no homelessness, and I have no plans. If you want, let me follow you."
Ningxiang nodded and replied softly: "Okay, but we have to make it clear. Let's live as a family now. Don't always think about whether you owe me or I owe you or something. And just as my aunt said, when you meet a suitable person, you should marry, don't worry too much."
It seemed that she was the older one. Guan Ping shook her head, lay down, closed her eyes and said, "Okay, go to bed."
Ningxiang smiled and went to the east room to sleep.
In the afternoon, the two families continued to peel corn skin.
Lu family, Lu Cheng stood at the entrance of the kitchen and looked at the second uncle's house in the back street. When he saw his aunt Pan bring out clothes to wash, he carried Anan to visit the house.
"Second grandma!" Anan would say more and more things, and his pronunciation became clearer.
Pan smiled and said, sitting in front of the wooden basin and laughed at the father and father, "Boss is back? Didn't you say the orchard is busy?"
"The fruits are picked, there is nothing to be busy with." Lu Cheng sat in the threshold of the south gate. He looked inside and guessed that two cousins went out to play with sisters in the same village. He coughed, pressed down on his son who wanted to go over to play with water, looked at his aunt, and whispered: "Second Aunt, I like a girl and I want to invite you to go and talk to her family."
Pan was shocked, let go of her clothes and turned her head to look at him. If it weren't for her nephew's arms, she would have thought she was dreaming, and she returned to the day when her nephew suddenly told her that he was going to marry a girl from the Feng family two years ago.
"Whose girl, you are silent, won't you be in trouble again?" Pan asked Surong, thinking that when he went to Feng's house to propose marriage, Mr. Feng almost asked someone to beat them out, but Miss Feng poked them out and said frankly that she was pregnant. Mr. Feng was angry and drove her out of the house and barely became a bride.
Both aunts were so scared by him. Lu Cheng couldn't laugh or cry and said in time: "No, you know, yes, sister Amu."
I was a little embarrassed for some reason.
"Aunt!" Anan knew who Amu's sister was, and looked up at her father.
Lu Cheng smiled at his son, which made the little guy laugh and looked at his aunt guiltily.
Pan was a little stunned by the news.
The eldest girl of the Xu family? That girl is only fourteen. She also wants to match the young girl with her seventeen-year-old second nephew. Why did the eldest nephew become his brother to intercept him?
"You, Xiang'er knows what you are thinking?" After coming back to her senses, Pan finally figured out something was wrong. According to her understanding, the eldest nephew seemed to have sent Sister Amu several times. Could it be that both of them had met each other?
As soon as the thought arose, he saw his nephew laughing, and he smiled with his back, but his eyes and eyebrows were full of energy. It was as if the dead trees were coming to the second spring. Pan had never seen his nephew laugh so happily, and couldn't help laughing. Thinking about Anan's love for Ningxiang, he suddenly felt that this might be God's will.
"Okay, since you two are in love, I will help you with a few trips. By the way, I have to go with your third aunt..."
"I went into the city in the morning and told her that Aunt San said I'd like to take care of you. It's inconvenient for her to come here, so I'll wait for the meal." Lu Cheng smiled.
Pan nodded, thought for a while, and said while washing clothes, "Let the second brother and the others coax Anan, hurry up and buy some tea and fruits in the town. There are sand fruits at home, and I will take them with you together. Although you two have agreed in private, the gift for leaving again must not be missing. If you buy a jar bar, you are a widower. A girl like Xiang'er is a low-marriage. We have to prepare more for the gift than others say."
The same is true for proposing marriage and giving gifts, and the gifts for getting married and getting married during the holidays.
"Well, I know what I know." Lu Cheng stood up with Anan in his arms, "Then the second aunt is busy first, I'll go to the town."
Pan nodded, watched his nephew take a few steps, suddenly remembered something, pursed his lips, and said lightly: "Your aunt, let me know." After saying that, he continued to wash clothes, his face was not as bright as before.
Lu Cheng paused slightly and sighed in his heart.
aunt……
His aunt is really not bad, but there is one thing that is too annoying and powerful. Although the two are aunts and nephews, they are only five years apart, so Lu Cheng remembers clearly what her aunt did before she got married. The second aunt's father is a down-and-out scholar. The dowry is nothing valuable except books, so the aunt dislikes the second aunt very much. Later, the third uncle married into the Xu family. When the third aunt came over, she brought gifts every time. The aunt liked it so much that she praised the third aunt for being good to everyone.
It would be strange if my second aunt could like her with such a temper.
When my aunt reached the age of getting married, she said that she had married a lot because of her good looks. The first thing she did was to choose a rich man when she chose a son-in-law was to choose a man who was rich. When she picked her, the matchmaker thought she was difficult to serve her, so she simply stopped coming. My aunt was lucky. When she went to the town to buy things, she became a strong uncle who opened a furniture shop. She was both talented and beautiful, and immediately married happily.
Lu Chengting was happy for his aunt.
Because of the same age, the two are more like siblings. Although my aunt is powerful, she has always been generous to him. She will leave him a portion of delicious food. It’s like my aunt’s relationship with her second aunt. Lu Cheng knew it was her aunt’s fault, so he could only persuade her. If her aunt didn’t listen, she would have a headache, but she couldn’t really dislike her.
I thought my aunt would have a better temper when she got married, but it made Lu Cheng even more trouble.
The powerful aunt has another disadvantage, she likes to show off.
Every time I go back to my parents' home, I will bring back many gifts. It is really generous, but I always have to walk around inside and outside the house to criticize their poor life. This and that are broken, my cousin followed suit, and the three of them nagged each other. Lu Chengdu is in his twenties and doesn't want to bother with women. The second brother has a bad temper and beats his cousin. The nine-year-old cousin never dares to talk nonsense again. My cousin can't do it, and the second brother loses his temper with her again and again. Last year, he talks harshly and asks her to go back to her home. My cousin is so angry that he really never comes again...
Lu Cheng was worried about such a relative.
But you have to go.
"You coax Anan, I'll go to the town to buy things. My second aunt will go to Xu's house tomorrow." After entering the house, Lu Cheng handed his son to his second brother.
Lu Yan was active and jumped up from the kang and ordered Lu Ding, "You coax Anan, I will go with my elder brother."
Lu Ding didn't care, he looked at his nephew.
Anan was more and more worried. He heard that his father was going out, so he turned around and hugged Lu Cheng, "Buy something!"
Lu Cheng kissed the little guy and smiled and said, "Okay, Dad takes Anan to his aunt's house."
Anan blinked his eyes, suddenly shook his head and shouted, letting go of his father and heading towards his third uncle.
He doesn't like his aunt who always makes his second uncle angry.
Xu's two-year-old child didn't like it anymore, and Lu Yan lost interest and lay on the kang again.
Lu Cheng smiled and went to the piggy bank to get the silver and drove out the donkey cart.
