Chapter 44 Going to Town with Er Gouzi



Although this child was difficult to control before, at least she only caused trouble in the village. But now, Qingshan Village can hardly accommodate her.

If you really have to control her, she has pretty good ideas.

Mrs. An understood her daughter's bad temper very well, and was afraid that if she was too strict, it would cause her to rebel.

In the final analysis, it's all the fault of those two bastards Ma Cuilian and Zhao Youliang.

Helplessly, An Hongdou could only tell Mrs. An, "Mom, I ran into Brother Ergou yesterday. He was the one who said he was going to town today, so I thought of going with him. Besides, your daughter is so strong that she will definitely not be in danger. Don't worry."

"What? Ergouzi? Why are you hanging out with that weirdo?" Ergouzi was a well-known bad boy in the village. He was a good kid when he was young, but he became more and more weird as he grew up.

Especially in recent years, after the promised daughter-in-law broke off the engagement, he has become more and more unbecoming.

"He's not a good guy. Be careful or he'll sell you out without you even knowing it!"

An Hongdou chuckled, "Oh, you are really my biological mother. Look at your daughter's appearance. Who would want her if you sold her to her?"

Not to mention selling it for money, even if I gave it away for free, it would probably be a tough sell.

Otherwise, he would not have taken advantage of the situation and forced the whole family to tighten their belts and save 20 kilograms of food to lure Zhao Youliang into getting engaged.

"My daughter is a good person, she shouldn't say that about herself." Mrs. An said this, but she knew in her heart that in terms of appearance, her daughter was really not good enough.

But times are different now.

With such great strength, he was able to hunt down a wild boar by himself in the mountains. If he hadn't already given it to Shen Zhiqing, it might have been in great demand in the future.

"Brother Ergou is so small, if we go out together, we still don't know who will sell whom. Mom, don't worry about it. I'm leaving!" An Hongdou said, carrying the small bag that Mrs. An had sewn for her with scraps of cloth. She wanted to leave directly, but after thinking about it, she leaned over to Mrs. An's ear and said, "Mom, yesterday Chen Xiangzhi gave me 100 yuan, saying that it was for us to build a house. You don't have to be unhappy with your sister-in-law and others because of this. I'll give you the money when I come back from town."

In this era when family property is generally left to sons, no matter which woman she is, I am afraid that she cannot tolerate her husband's family always giving subsidies to her sister-in-law.

Of course, since the family property is left to the son, the issue of retirement care naturally also becomes the son's responsibility. This is the general idea of ​​the elderly.

Although An Hongdou didn't think so, she didn't want Old Lady An to offend all her daughters-in-law for her sake.

After all, she can move out after getting married, but Mrs. An still has to stay in this house.

Listening to the sound of the door opening and closing, Old Lady An didn't know what she was thinking, and tears suddenly gathered in her eyes.

After thinking about it, he quickly wiped it off.

An Hongdou came to the outside of her own courtyard wall, and Ergouzi had been waiting there for a long time.

"Why are you up so early?" She had deliberately gotten up a little earlier. She had originally wanted to take out more things from the space, but now it seemed that it was too late.

"I'm just too excited and can't sleep. It's uncomfortable lying at home, so I came here early." Ergouzi said.

An Hongdou just saw a cart on the side road and asked him, "Did you push the cart over here?"

"Yeah, it's such a long way, how tired we would be if we just carried it alone?" Er Gouzi said as he dug out the things from the bushes and put them on the cart. "Since you're here, let's go while it's still dark, otherwise it would be bad if people saw us when everyone got up."

Er Gouzi loaded all the things onto the cart, pulled some weeds from the side to cover it, and also pulled two old pumpkins from someone's house and put them in. Then he pulled the cart away.

Looking at this scene, An Hongdou frowned slightly and stepped on the back of the cart he had just pulled up.

Er Gouzi's arm, which was holding the handle, felt a pain from the shock and he quickly let go of the car and looked back.

"What...what happened?"

Seeing the gloomy look on An Hongdou's face, he was really scared.

"Put down their pumpkin." An Hongdou said with a cold face.

She never considered herself a good person, but she still disdained to do such petty thefts.

Especially in this era of food shortage, these two pumpkins might be someone's food for several days, and they were picked up by Ergouzi. Others must be so angry that they cursed him.

Since Ergouzi wants to be her partner, even if she has not yet approved of him, she will never allow anyone around her to do anything sneaky.

"So...it's just a small thing. Why don't you just tell me directly? Why get so angry?" Er Gouzi was so frightened that his heart trembled. He quickly dug out the two pumpkins and put them back where they were.

"Okay." Ergouzi looked at An Hongdou and said cautiously.

An Hongdou then let go of her feet and said, "Since you want to cooperate with me, you have to be more careful in the future, otherwise..."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I promise I will never take anything from others again!" Er Gouzi didn't even dare to wait for her to finish her words, and immediately made the promise.

If he has a bad reputation in the village, An Hongdou is not much better than him. The only difference is that his bad reputation is that he is lazy at work and occasionally takes advantage of others.

An Hongdou was different. She didn't have to worry about these things and put all her thoughts on Zhao Youliang. In addition, she was arrogant and domineering and couldn't stand other people's gossip that belittled her, so she developed a domineering personality and would beat anyone who said anything bad about her.

I just don't know when this girl started to change.

It only took a glance from her to almost scare him to death!

Thinking of this, Ergouzi felt that he was really ashamed of himself.

The mountain road is uneven and bumpy.

When there were no uphill climbs, An Hongdou had to lend a hand from behind, otherwise it would be very difficult for Ergouzi to do it alone.

By the time the two of them were almost in town, it was already dawn.

An Hongdou was about to move forward when Er Gouzi called her and led the way to a small path nearby.

The two men walked through a forest, crossed a bridge, and came to a dark alley.

Er Gouzi rummaged around in his arms for a long time and pulled out two pieces of rags.

He covered his face with one piece and handed another piece to An Hongdou, "Sister, you can't show your face in here, cover your face like me."

An Hongdou looked at it with disdain and didn't take it.

She just saw clearly that the piece of rag was taken out from Ergouzi's chest. After walking all the way, his head was covered with sweat, not to mention his body.

Let her surround her face with a waterfall covered with sweat, or stop torturing her.
