Chapter 52 She Married Lu Jingzhen, Not Lu Lidong

When it was almost dark, the two got on the bicycle and rode home.

Xia Qingling was sitting in the back seat of the bicycle, holding a large bunch of wild flowers she had picked, feeling very happy.

When they returned to the yard, it was not yet dark. Aunt Wu, who had come out to fetch water, saw the two people coming back. The man was tall and handsome, and the girl was charming and charming. She couldn't help but smile and said,

"Oh, the young couple went out to play together, and they picked so many flowers. Haha, what a good relationship, what a good relationship."

The wives who were fetching water by the pool also looked over, and sure enough, they saw Xia Qingling sitting in the back seat of Lu Jingzhen's bicycle with a large bunch of flowers in her arms.

In this era, most people hold vegetables and babies in their arms, but holding flowers is a novelty.

"Don't we have a good relationship? My husband never took me to pick flowers when they were dating each other."

"Don't tell me, these flowers don't look good when they grow in the ground, but they look so beautiful when they are held in your hand. "

"Haha, that's because Lu Er's wife is pretty. "

Amid everyone's jokes, the car drove into their yard. Xia Qingli jumped out of the car. After the first time riding in a car, she didn't feel any pain in her butt. She smiled at Lu Jingzhen and went back to the house first.

After dinner, she found an abandoned small pot, washed it, put the wild flowers she picked in it, and placed it on the cabinet. The pot was simple and the flowers were fresh, and the collision was beautiful.

Looking at the place where Lu Jingzhen usually read books, she also wanted to add some liveliness to his table, but there was no vase. After thinking about it, she found a wine bottle and removed the vase on it. She cut off the surface of the bottle, leaving only the bottle body. She

wrapped a linen rope around it, filled the bottle with water, and picked out a small flower from the flowers she had picked and inserted it into the bottle.

After finishing all this, Xia Qingling started making clothes again.

She planned to piece together a long skirt with scraps of cloth to wear when she returned home tomorrow.

The georgette skirt that Lu Jingchen bought was beautiful, but it was too eye-catching to wear back in the countryside. She was not a person who sought favors and felt that she should follow the local customs.

When Lu Jingchen walked into the room, she had already made most of it. Seeing that she was still making clothes with scraps of cloth, he asked in confusion:

"Didn't I buy you clothes today?" After that, she seemed to have thought of something and continued:

"If you feel it is not enough to wear, we will go to the store again when you come back from your mother's house. "

Xia Qingxi waved her hands and said, "No, I'm enough to wear." Knowing that he had misunderstood, she explained,

"I bought these scraps of cloth because I like them, not to save money." After that, she raised her delicate little face and continued,

"Don't underestimate these scraps of cloth. The skirt that Mai Miao is wearing today was made by me with them."

When Lu Jingqi came back in shock, he didn't pay much attention to what Mai Miao was wearing today. When he heard her say it was because she liked it, he didn't bother about the scraps of cloth anymore and said,

"Go to bed early, we have to hurry tomorrow."

"Well, you go to bed first, I'll be done soon. "Xia Qingxi didn't look up again and continued to make the skirt.

Seeing that she insisted and seeing that it was not too late, Lu Jingxie stopped urging her. When he sat down at the table and prepared to read, he found the bouquet of flowers that Xia Qingxi had put for him.

The small flower with light blue petals and yellow stamens has a nice name "aster", but it is the most common wild flower, but now it is beautiful.

When he turned around, he found that there was also a vase on the cabinet next to him. With these wild flowers, he followed the rules. The room suddenly became warm and beautiful.

He had been living in a dormitory in the army. There was only an iron bed and the furniture was a table and chairs. This was the first time he felt that a room could be warm, and a warm feeling flowed through his heart.

Almost an hour later, Xia Qingxing's skirt was finished. She specially selected blue fabrics of different shades. The skirt looked ordinary, but the details were exquisite and the patterns were well-arranged. There are small laces at the joints of each piece, and there is a circle of small tassels on the hem.

After she finished, she couldn't wait to share it with Lu Jingchen. Lu Jingchen didn't expect that those scraps of cloth could really be made into a skirt, and it was not inferior to the ones bought in the store.

He knew her better in his heart. The girl in front of him can make beautiful clothes, draw vivid paintings, and decorate the room. Why didn't he realize that she was so skillful before.

Because when I get up tomorrow morning After Xia Qingxi finished making the skirt, she packed up the candies, clothes, and fabrics she bought for her family. She was just thinking whether to use the heavy wooden box to pack them, when Lu Jingzhen took out his canvas bag.

Xia Qingxi thanked him and didn't bother to say hello. She used it directly. She had to take a bus to the town first, and then walk more than ten kilometers back to the village. If she was lucky, she could take a bullock cart. If she was unlucky, she could only rely on Walking on two legs, the lighter the luggage, the better.

After packing up, the two lay down. Thinking that they would go back to the countryside tomorrow, Xia Qingxu felt a little uneasy.

When the original body was in the countryside, she was engaged to Lu Lidong. When she was brought to the city, she was also told that she was going to marry Lu Lidong.

After the original body came to the city, only the original body's mother and brother came a few times. Later, she and Lu Jingzhen had that incident, and Wang Mingfang moved in again. She was told to stay away from the poor relatives in the countryside.

So I haven't been back for more than three years. Only my brother would occasionally send me some things, but he would never come into the house and leave them in the phone booth before going back.

My mother naturally wouldn't tell anyone about my marriage to Lu Jingchen. No one in the village knew about it. They all thought that I was marrying Lu Lidong.

Now that Xia Qingxiang and Lu Jingchen were going back, it would inevitably cause a stir.

Xia Qingxi thought it was nothing, at most he would just get criticized.

But Lu Jingchen was different. He had no choice but to marry the original body, and now he had to accompany her back to face the criticism of others. It was really difficult for him.

Who knows what bad words those people would say. What if Lu Jingchen listened to those gossips and vented all his dissatisfaction on himself?

But he couldn't not go back, so he decided to go back. It turned out to be the original body's mother's home, and it was Lu Jingqi who proposed it, so she had no reason not to go back.

Thinking of this, Xia Qingying was uneasy, hoping that the visit to her relatives would go smoothly in the next two days without any trouble.

The next day, before dawn, the two got up, washed up and went to the bus station. The bus turned countless corners on the winding mountain road, and Xia Qingying was shaken to the point of dizziness. Fortunately, she didn't eat anything and didn't vomit directly.

After more than four hours, they finally arrived in the town. Unfortunately, there was no ox cart to take, so the two had to walk back.

Lu Jingqie picked up the luggage and walked in front, Xia Qingqing followed empty-handed. Even so, after walking more than ten kilometers on the mountain road, she felt exhausted.

*

A row of three mud houses were surrounded by bamboo fences. Outside the fences were four or five tall loquat trees. It was the fruit-bearing season, and the yellow loquats hung all over the trees, which looked particularly pleasing.

Two women were standing and talking in the yard.

"Old sister, go to the girl's family and talk. Our Qingshu has a good character and good looks, except for his legs." The woman who spoke was taller, but much thinner, and her clothes were sewn and patched.

"Sister Yumei, it's not that I won't speak for your Qingshu, the problem is his legs. The girl has made it clear that it won't work." The short woman replied with a shrewd look in her eyes. After a moment, she continued with seeming embarrassment:

"I have another family here."

Hearing her say there was another family, Guo Yumei's eyes lit up immediately, but the next second she heard the short matchmaker say:

"It's just that the girl is a little simple-minded."

The light in Guo Yumei's eyes disappeared in an instant. How could she not understand what this "simple-minded" meant? It meant that the girl was not smart and was a fool.

"Although she is a bit simple and honest, there is absolutely no problem with fertility." The short and fat woman guaranteed it, and continued:

"Don't worry, she doesn't hit people or run around."

Guo Yumei's face had completely turned black, and she tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart. Just when she couldn't help but want to chase him away, a cheerful voice suddenly came from outside the yard:

"Yumei, come out quickly, your daughter Qingqing is back."
