Chen Ahfu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy's brain circuit was really wrong. She was afraid of attracting people to watch the fun, so she wanted to chase him away quickly. She shouted in a muffled voice, "My family's attitude has been made very clear to Matchmaker Li. You stay away from me and don't say these inexplicable words in front of me in the future."
Wang Yingjun still wanted to fight for it, but when he saw Chen Afu's face became even gloomier and he picked up the carrying pole on the ground, he limped away in fear.
After running two steps, he stopped, turned back and said, "It doesn't matter if Sister Afu doesn't agree. If you have physical work at home in the future, ask Dabao to come to my house and call me, and I will help you." After that, he ran away.
Because he was too nervous, he almost bumped into Chen Aju who was walking on the path.
Chen Aju screamed and quickly dodged, cursing, "Oh, it stinks, disgusting."
She passed Wang Yingjun and walked towards Chen Afu. She was wearing a blue satin top with a brown satin collar embroidered with a few small flowers, a half-worn light green long skirt made of fine cloth, and blue ribbons tied around her buns. This outfit was very eye-catching among the country girls, and the girls of landlords were no better.
She smiled and raised her eyebrows and said, "Chen Ahfu, oh, Sister Ahfu, I heard that Wang Yingjun asked a matchmaker to go to your house to propose marriage? You guys looked so happy just now, are you going to have Sister Ahfu's wedding banquet soon?"
The news that Wang Yingjun asked a matchmaker to go to the second branch of the Chen family to propose marriage had spread throughout Xiangluo Village. Chen Aju laughed so hard that she said that it would be a shame for her if Chen Afu married Wang Yingjun.
Mrs. Hu was not so happy. She tapped her forehead and whispered, "Silly girl, Wang Yingjun is a stingy person. If he goes to Ah Fu's house, not only will we not be able to get any benefits from that girl, I'm afraid we won't be able to get any benefits from your uncle either."
Chen Aju didn't care about all this and was still very happy. She came here early this morning just to make fun of Chen Afu.
Chen Ahfu glanced at her, wondering whether the piece of satin on her body belonged to Chen Ye or Chen Dahu. No matter whose it was, Chen Ye and Hu Shi spoiled her enough. Moreover, this girl was as ungrateful as Hu Shi.
Chen Ahfu said expressionlessly, "It's too early to have my wedding banquet. I'm not as anxious as Sister Aju. Look, the man you've been thinking about is here."
Chen Aju was so angry that she was about to curse, but when she turned her head, she saw Wu Changsheng passing by the path beside the vegetable field. She didn't care about cursing anymore and called him sweetly, "Second Brother Wu." She quickly tugged at her satin clothes, feeling very happy that she was wearing this beautiful dress.
Wu Changsheng was wearing a short grey brown shirt, tall and strong. He smiled over here and actually walked over. This made Chen Aju very excited, and she looked up and said sweetly, "Wu Erge, where are you going?"
Chen Ahfu couldn't stand her behavior. At this age, she would have been a first-grade student in her previous life, but she had a face full of spring, and she didn't even try to hide it.
Wu Changsheng seemed not to have heard her words. He stood outside the fence and smiled at Chen Afu, "Sister Afu, are you watering the vegetable garden?"
Chen Ahfu nodded and called out, "Second Brother Wu."
Chen Aju suppressed the hatred in her eyes and said to Wu Changsheng with a smile, "Second Brother Wu, I called you several times, why didn't you respond to me?"
Wu Changsheng seemed to have just seen Chen Aju, and he turned his head and greeted her, "Aju." Then he turned around and smiled at Chen Afu, "I heard from Xiao Shitou that the big birdcage holds two larks. Do you need cages for the other two parrots in your home? I'll make two more."
Chen Afu smiled and said, "The two parrots in my house are very smart. They won't fly away unless they are put in cages. Thank you, but they're not needed." After saying that, he lowered his head and watered the vegetable garden.
Wu Changsheng rubbed his hands and tried to find something to say. Chen Afu was busy with her work and rarely answered. It was not that she didn't want to answer, but Chen Aju was quick to interrupt.
After watering the vegetable garden, Chen Afu said to Wu Changsheng, "Second Brother Wu is busy, I'll go fetch some water." Then he carried the bucket to the well to fetch water. This time he was going to take the water home.
Wu Changsheng saw Chen Afu leave, looking lonely, and he also walked towards the village. Chen Aju was still following him and talking nonstop. She was very happy today. Usually Wu Changsheng would stay away from her and never talked to her as much as today.
Chen Ahfu carried water back home, and he carried it twice before the big water tank was full. Today he was carrying water for the old courtyard, where water is used up quickly, so he had to carry water every one or two days. The water for the new courtyard was used up more slowly, so he had to carry water every three or four days.
She went to the east of the new courtyard, where there were two sweet-scented osmanthus trees. It was the season when the sweet-scented osmanthus was in full bloom, and when the wind blew, many tender yellow flowers fell. She swept a large tea bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers back.
After washing the osmanthus flowers, Chen Ahfu spread them out in a dustpan and hung them in the yard to dry, waiting to make osmanthus glutinous rice dates at noon. She wanted to make some at noon today and send them to Tangyuan. She would make some more in the evening and keep some for Wang to send to Mr. Yang of Xile Restaurant tomorrow, and ask him to pass them on to Yang Chao and Yang Qian.
After finishing all this, she went back to her west room to rest and sat next to Chen Dabao to watch him practice his big characters seriously. It must be said that this child's concentration is rare. Qiqi, Huihui and Zhuifeng kept making trouble beside him, but they couldn't affect him.
Moreover, his calligraphy is very good, even better than A-Lu's. Both of them were taught by Chen Ming, and they only started practicing calligraphy more than two months ago. Even Chen Ming said that this is talent, and it is not something that can be envied.
Looking at his pretty little face again, Chen Afu thought, whoever's family lost him would suffer a great loss.
Then she thought wickedly, it was because his family didn't want him anymore, otherwise how could she let him get away with it? Thinking of this, she felt so happy that she turned her head and kissed his handsome face.
Dabao finished writing the character, then raised his head and frowned, saying, "If mother wants to kiss her son, she has to wait until he finishes writing the big character before kissing him. When my son is working hard, mother cannot disturb him."
Chen Ahfu quickly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, son, continue writing."
At this time, a man's loud voice was heard coming from the fence door next door, "Is Chen Dabao home?"
Chen Afu and Chen Dabao looked out the window and saw a carriage parked outside the door. The driver who was talking was Old Uncle Yang who had come last time. Two little heads popped out of the carriage window. One was Yang Chao and the other was Yang Qian.
Chen Afu and Da BMW went up and down to the old courtyard.
After opening the door, Chen Ahfu carried Yang Qian out of the carriage and invited Yang Chao, the servant Lidong, and the maid Huang Mama into the courtyard. Old Uncle Yang drove the carriage to the new courtyard and parked it.
Chen Ming and A Lu also came out.
Yang Chao called everyone and said, "My sister and I miss Qiqi and Huihui. Oh, we miss Dabao and Aunt Chen even more. That's why we came to visit you."
