Mrs. Yuan carried an empty basket and walked home in a good mood.
I met a few women on the way and asked her what good news she had, and she was smiling so happily.
Mother Yuan didn't hide anything, saying that she had already chosen a date.
Their son, Shi Tou, and his daughter, Xiao Xiao, got married on the second day of the twelfth lunar month and invited everyone to their wedding banquet.
This statement surprised everyone.
Everyone is speculating whether it was Shufen and the others who caused this trouble, which forced Shitou and Xiaoxiao to get married ahead of schedule.
But it must be said, this is indeed good news.
Everyone offered their congratulations and said they would come over to ask for a drink at the wedding.
Mother Yuan readily agreed.
They were also invited to come to their home to help out earlier.
At this time, Yuan Shitou was unaware of this.
He was now alone on the hillside, leading his cow, looking dejected and lost in thought.
I encountered a woman who was out cutting grass.
He joked, "Oh dear, what's wrong with Stone?"
I'm in a bad mood.
These people are about to get married, why aren't they happy?
Don't you want to marry Xiaoxiao?
Yuan Shitou just smiled when he heard him say that.
Then, as if remembering something, she asked, "How did Auntie know I was getting married?"
That auntie was also quite talkative: "Oh dear, I just saw your mother go to the village chief's house to ask his father to choose an auspicious date."
When they came back, they said the date was set for the second day of the twelfth lunar month, and they even invited us to their home for their wedding.
What, you don't know yet, kid?
I really don't know Yuan Shitou.
His eyes were frighteningly bright at that moment.
He no longer looked depressed.
He got up, took the ox, and started walking home, saying as he went:
"Then, Auntie, you go ahead and cut the grass. I won't bother you any longer."
As he spoke, he drove the oxen very fast.
The auntie laughed so hard she almost cried.
This stone is getting cuter and cuter.
Only this aunt could come up with the idea of using the word "cute" to describe Yuan Shitou.
She didn't see Yuan Shitou kick Shufen.
If I had seen it, I definitely wouldn't have said that.
As soon as Yuan Shitou got home, he ran into the house to find Xiaoxiao without even tying up the ox.
I searched and searched but couldn't find it.
He went to look for Yuan's mother again, but she was nowhere to be found.
I did see Yuan's father feeding grass to the rabbits.
Mr. Yuan asked with a puzzled look, "Why are you pacing around like that? Is a dog chasing you?"
Yuan Shitou grinned so wide his mouth stretched to his ears, revealing a set of white teeth.
"Father, where is my mother? Where did she go?"
Yuan's father got angry when he saw his foolish look: "How should I know? I didn't see it."
What? You need her for something? Do you want some milk or something?
Yuan Shitou was still grinning from ear to ear.
"Father, what did you say?"
I'm so old, I can't still drink milk.
This isn't something I heard; my mother went to calculate the date for me and Xiaoxiao, and we got married on the second day of the twelfth lunar month.
I'm happy and wanted to come back to confirm.
Mr. Yuan was taken aback and looked at him with a puzzled expression:
"When did this happen? How come I didn't know?"
Upon hearing his father's words, Yuan Shitou was dumbfounded.
He knew it; the auntie must have been joking.
That's not true at all.
He was disappointed.
He immediately slumped down and sat under the eaves looking listless.
Mr. Yuan asked curiously, "What's wrong? Who told you?"
Yuan Shitou shook his head and didn't say anything.
His mood is like a rollercoaster right now.
I was so happy just now, but now I'm back to rock bottom.
It's almost unacceptable.
Just then, Yuan's mother returned from outside.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the father and son was a bit off, he asked, "What's wrong? Did you two have a fight?"
Yuan Shitou glanced at his mother, who still had her head drooping, looking like she didn't want to talk to anyone.
Father Yuan poked his good-for-nothing head and asked:
"Damn it, did you go to the village chief's house today?"
Mother Yuan nodded: "Yes, they went."
"Isn't this just going to consult with them about auspicious dates?"
Yuan Shitou jumped up immediately, startling his mother.
"Mother, is it true?"
"Is it the second day of the twelfth lunar month that I'm getting married to Xiaoxiao?"
Mother Yuan laughed and scolded, "Look at you, so impatient."
Let me tell you, Xiaoxiao is still very young...
Then, after glancing at Yuan's father, he pulled Yuan Shitou into the house.
"Let me tell you, Xiaoxiao is still very young."
Stop thinking about that kind of thing all the time.
Although I agree to your marriage, let's wait two years before consummating the marriage.
Yuan Shitou was dumbfounded; they were already married and he still couldn't touch her.
Who could stand sleeping with their fragrant wife every day?
It's not something you can see but can't touch, it's something that makes your heart ache.
No, it's that you can see it and touch it, but you can't eat it.
Is this even allowed to live?
You said he's almost 30 years old and still a virgin.
It's all tears when I tell you about it.
For my own benefit, and so that I can eat meat sooner.
He still wanted to try.
"Mother, why?"
Don't you want to hold your grandchildren soon?
Yuan's mother slapped him on the head.
"You stupid bear, there's no rush to have a grandson."
Xiaoxiao is only 17 years old, not even 18 yet.
"If you dare get her pregnant, I'll break your legs."
"Then why?"
"Have you forgotten? Your sister was also seventeen when she gave birth to Gou Dan'er."
And then how did it disappear?
It's very dangerous for a girl to give birth at such a young age.
In addition, Xiaoxiao's health was severely depleted in the past. It took her a lot of effort to recover in the last two years.
You can't let it all go to waste again.
I also want her to have a few more grandchildren for me.
Although Yuan Shitou was somewhat unwilling, what his mother said made a lot of sense.
She nodded and said, "Mother, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Although Yuan's mother also felt sorry for her son.
But she wouldn't do anything that causes even minor harm.
Fearing that her son couldn't resist, she said, "If you can't do it, then why don't you wait two years before getting married?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shitou was alarmed.
No, absolutely not.
He quickly made a promise, almost swearing an oath.
He said he would absolutely, positively not do anything reckless.
Just as Madam Yuan was about to say something more, she heard Gou Dan'er's voice.
Knowing that Xiaoxiao and the others had returned, he then went out.
Yun Xiaoxiao and Gou Dan'er went to cut grass again.
Whenever they have free time, they go up the mountain to cut grass.
There are just too many mouths to feed in the house.
I'm also afraid of rain.
Rabbits cannot eat grass that has dew on it.
They usually cut them down and then dry them indoors.
They were fed to them the next day.
To dry the grass, Yuan's father even built several bamboo mats.
They hung them up layer by layer to dry the grass.
As soon as Yuan Shitou saw Xiaoxiao, he quickly ran over and took her basket.
She looked at Xiaoxiao with affectionate eyes.
It made Xiaoxiao very uncomfortable.
However, it's also known that this simpleton has moments of madness.
So I didn't pay much attention to it.
Yuan Ping'an, however, couldn't stand it any longer.
"Uncle, you're smiling so happily."
Your mouth is so big, is it to show off how white your teeth are?
However, I still have to tell you.
There's a piece of vegetable stuck between your teeth; it's disgusting to look at.
