Su Shien, who was resting with his eyes closed under a tree, was hit by a fruit falling from the sky. He slowly opened his eyes and was met with a bright smile.
This person looks familiar, as if he was from that day...
"Is there no one in your yard? I'm coming in!" As soon as he finished speaking, Han Zeyu jumped in with a backpack on his back, very agile.
Su Shien was a little surprised and a little envious. This young man had such great skills, unlike himself, who was really a useless scholar.
Han Zeyu spread a large leaf on the ground and sat directly on it, his entire body being blocked by the man and the stone table.
"I'll just sit here for a while. Don't move around, or else someone will find out and bring bad reputation upon me."
Su Shien looked at the boy beside her legs with a helpless smile, "So you also know that doing this will damage your reputation, but I don't think you are afraid at all."
"What are you doing here? Are you trying to persuade me to cancel the engagement? Forget it. My marriage is not my decision. My way is not feasible."
Han Zeyu almost got furious when he heard the word "break off engagement". He had finally gotten a fiancé, how could he just break off the engagement?
But after hearing what was said next, Han Zeyu was completely relieved. It would be better if the way of breaking off the engagement was not feasible, and it would be best if it was completely blocked.
"I've thought it through. I don't want to cancel the engagement. I think you're great. Handsome, suave, elegant, and refined. I'm very satisfied with you. Don't even think about canceling the engagement. It would be bad for a young man like me to be rejected by my husband's family."
Su Shien chuckled and didn't mention the engagement anymore. Instead, he asked curiously, "Have you ever been educated?"
Han Zeyu wanted to say that he was a graduate student and had studied for eighteen years, but the words stopped at his lips. This man was not his ex yet, so he needed to be reserved.
"My second brother is a book boy. Everyone in the family can recognize a few words. I have a particularly good memory. What do you think? Am I amazing?"
"Yeah, it's really amazing." The boy's eyes were bright, and he looked very lively as if he was asking for praise.
Han Zeyu raised his chin proudly. He was just that outstanding.
I took out the wild fruits I picked this morning from the bamboo basket. They looked very beautiful in red and tasted like big cherries.
"I picked them. Take your time to eat them. I'm going to sell herbs now. I'll come see you next time."
Su Shien nodded, feeling a little disappointed. He said without showing it, "Let's go to Huimin Hall in the west of the city. That's my sister's shop."
Han Zeyu suppressed his inner excitement, waved his hand reluctantly, and disappeared on the top of the wall.
Is this because they're worried he'll get ripped off? The old man is really nice, he must be concerned about me.
Su Shien picked up the red fruits on the table, rinsed them with water, put them into her mouth and chewed them slowly. She couldn't help but smile. They were indeed very sweet.
I still remember the last time we met, that man's lifeless eyes and miserable look. I thought he was a heartbroken person, but I didn't expect that he had such a lively and lively side. Maybe this engagement isn't as bad as I thought...
The medicinal herbs were sold for one tael and four qian of silver. The shop owner was very satisfied and told him to send her such good herbs whenever he had them in the future.
Han Zeyu smiled and agreed, thinking to himself that this was his future sister-in-law! She was a beauty, and both the Su family siblings were good-looking.
I went to the market and bought a piece of pork, and also bought all the pork ribs on the stall. There was no other way, I couldn't find wild pork ribs, so I could only spend money to buy those raised by farmers.
It was already afternoon when Han Zeyu returned to the village. The entrance to the Zhao family was not crowded with people like it was in the morning. Only a few women sewing shoe soles were sitting together chatting.
Seeing the eldest son of the Han family coming back, several women exchanged glances and nudged one of them, indicating that she should ask.
The woman didn't shy away and greeted Han Zeyu openly, "Brother Yu, are you going to the county town?"
Han Zeyu saw that it was the hunter's wife, and her family had no shortage of meat to eat. The couple were also good people. He quickly smiled and replied, "I went to the city to sell herbs. Next time, if you have anything to bring back, just let me know. It will save you the trip."
The hunter's wife is a smart person. Yu Ge'er was talking about you, not you guys. He didn't mean to run errands for those people.
Feeling that she was being treated well, the hunter's wife quickly packed up her sewing basket and left with Han Zeyu.
"You are such a polite young man! How could I trouble you? I didn't ask you to bring anything heavy, just some small things like needles and thread..."
The two men gradually walked away, and the remaining three women started gossiping. They didn't have any bad intentions, they were just simply curious.
"I told you not to believe all the rumors. Yu Ge'er doesn't look sad."
"I'm not really that sad. I saw some pork in his basket. Who would go all the way to buy pork if their sweetheart is engaged to someone else?"
"Yes, and he was holding a paper bag! It had a candy shop print on it."
To sum up, the eldest son of the Han family lives a very free and easy life, at least more comfortably than them.
Zhao stood at the door worriedly. Where had her son Yu gone? He hadn't even come home for lunch.
She told the two little ones to look after the house well. Just when she was about to go out to look for someone, she saw Yu Ge'er waving goodbye to the hunter's wife. It seemed that the two of them were having a good chat?
"Mom, I bought some pork, can you cook it for me?"
Zhao took the pork and asked doubtfully, "When did you become so close to Sister Yang?"
Han Zeyu said as a matter of course: "It just suddenly got better just now. I was mainly envious of others for having endless meat to eat."
Zhao rolled her eyes at him. Where was this child's original reserved and reserved nature? Had it all been washed away by the river?
In fact, Zhao was relieved and even had the mind to buy meat, which meant that Yu Ge'er had really let it go. It would be good to hide away today, out of sight, out of mind.
She had some complicated relationship with Zhao Xiucai's family. Today she went to the engagement ceremony to give a gift, and seeing the lively scene, she felt angry.
When the well-dressed Zhao Yan passed by her, she almost gritted her teeth. What an ungrateful man the Zhao family was. This family was not good people. She should be thankful that her Yu Ge'er did not marry into the family.
…
Han Zeyu gave the two children some candy and asked them to take some bones to their uncle's house.
My original grandparents lived with my uncle's family. They were all nice people and we could visit each other often.
The two families were not far from each other, and soon the two children ran back.
Han Zeli is seven years old and the third child in the family. He has a lively personality and gets along well with other children in the village.
Yumo and Zeli are twins, a boy and a girl. She is also the youngest girl in the family. She is thoughtful and likes to be with Zhao.
At this moment, the two little guys were chattering and sharing the gossip they had just seen with their big brother...
