Chapter 3: Why did it change later?
Outside the house, Xie Mingtu was sitting on a stone, with his back against the earth wall, holding an old knife in his hand, the blade slid on the wood, the sawdust fell on his legs, and was swept by the wind Played a few spins.
He lowered his eyes and stared at the wood in his hands, with a vague outline of a comb, and the third brother Su's voice entered his ears through the gap in the earthen wall.
Xie Mingtu stood up, with dark eyes under his black hair, he pursed his lips and left.
Su Xiaoman took a lot of effort to send off the third brother Su.
She wiped the unnecessary sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand, Su Sange could see that he was really doing good for his sister, but he was too detached and incoherent. Otherwise, he will take Su Xiaoman home and make a scene by the way.
—Do things without regard for the consequences.
She opened the lid, took out the fish soup inside, poured herself a bowl, holding a small porcelain bowl with a gap in her fair hands, Su Xiaoman avoided the gap and sipped warm Hot crucian carp soup.
Yes, my heart also warmed up.
As soon as I tasted it, I knew it was Liu Shufeng's craftsmanship.
Su Xiaoman's life is much better than hers. She has parents and brother who truly love her.
In addition to the fish soup, there is a bag of brown sugar and four or five eggs in the basket. Su Xiaoman plans to find a place to hide the brown sugar and eggs.
The wooden door creaked, Xie Mingtu walked in with his head lowered, Su Xiaoman glanced back at him, she found that this man always kept his head down.
Su Xiaoman poured him a bowl of fish soup.
"You can eat this bowl of fish soup."
Su Xiaoman is a person who will repay her kindness. It was also the one who really saved her from drowning.
He took care of him when she was sick before. The first person she saw when she woke up was also him. He also gave herself rice soup. Now that she has fish soup, she should also give him a bowl. , It is not easy to think about each other.
This marriage was not caused by Xie Mingtu;
The third brother Su persuaded her just now that she could indeed go back with the third brother, and even make a fuss to make the marriage annulled, but if this is the case, she and Xie Mingtu will become the joke of the whole village.
Su Xiaoman can forget about herself, her family protects her, and Xie Mingtu will only face more rumors. After running away, the ridicule and humiliation that he will face afterwards is evident.
The other party is just an 18-year-old boy who saved people with good intentions. He should not end up like this.
"I don't."
To Su Xiaoman's surprise, Xie Mingtu, who lowered his head, refused. He didn't even look up in the direction of the fish soup.
But at this moment, Su Xiaoman suddenly found that the man in front of him spoke in a very good tone, with a low and magnetic voice, a little hoarse, but he didn't speak often.
Su Xiaoman urged him: "You drink it, my third brother sent it, I've eaten enough, I won't drink it now, the fish soup will be cold and fishy later."
"It's like returning the two bowls of rice soup you had before."
Xie Mingtu raised his head slightly, looked at her with a surprised look, and then silently drank the bowl of fish soup.
.
The fish soup is no longer fresh, but it can warm the stomach when you drink it. There are some sour beans in the soup. Got a lot more spirited.
When Xie Mingtu was eating fish soup, Su Xiaoman was packing things in the house, putting away the brown sugar brought by her brother, and she had to sort out her clothes, Xie Mingtu's room was narrow and broken, don't There is nothing, but there are still a few broken cabinets.
"These cabinets are mine from now on, don't move." Su Xiaoman pointed to the cabinets next to him.
Xie Mingtu was stunned for a while while holding the bowl, in the future? What's next?
…she wants to stay?
"Didn't you hear? In the future, these will contain my things, please don't disturb them."
Xie Mingtu lowered his head and took a sip of soup, then nodded honestly.
Su Xiaoman actually had nothing to guard against this poor, who looked thin and tall on the surface, but was actually cowardly and honest.
The original book said that he would grow into a big villain in the future, but now he is still in the infancy of the villain.
I'm still a pitiful bully.
Su Xiaoman once heard that it is precisely because people who used to be completely white have suffered a series of injustices, and the blackening will become more serious.
Before he turned black, he should be a simple white paper.
Sleep at night, although there is only one bed in the house, but it is distinct, with an old blanket in the middle, and each of them sleeps on one head.
These days when Su Xiaoman got married, they have been sleeping separately. Although she is already Xie Mingtu's wife in name, he has never forced her to have a relationship between husband and wife. This is also why Su Xiaoman was willing to stay. Here's why.
It is also one of the factors why Su Xiaoman decides to stay temporarily.
Su Xiaoman covered the quilt and closed her eyes. Xie Mingtu, who was not far away, was sleeping very well. She was lying on the bed like an old monk, and she could hardly feel any movement from the other party.
Xie Mingtu over there was motionless, but Su Xiaoman turned over a few times, causing the bed to squeak a few times, which became especially harsh in the dark night.
She finally fell silent.
After calming down, Su Xiaoman was a little cranky. It was the first time for her to live in such a rural dirt house when she grew up in the Su family. What will her life in the village be like in the future?
—Collection of chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan?
Real life should not be so beautiful, it seems that there is a pig shed not far from this house, raising two pigs...
I don't know what time the pigs go to bed at night.
Thinking about it like this, soon, Su Xiaoman fell asleep, but it didn't take long for the autumn rain to fall in the middle of the night.
The pattering autumn rain hit the roof tiles, and the wind at night was getting colder.
The house is leaking.
Su Xiaoman, who woke up in the middle of the night, stared blankly at the intermittent streams of water in the room. There was a leak, which was actually at the end of the bed.
Xie Ming, who had woken up early, picked up the water from the basin, and the rain fell into the wooden basin, making a rattling sound.
The pig shed not far away also seemed to be agitated.
Su Xiaoman: "…"
She suddenly felt that she was too optimistic during the day. In such an environment, it would be difficult to live a day, and it would be until the 1980s? ? !
Seeing this, Xie Mingtu seemed to be used to it. He went to get some hay and spread it on the ground, as if he planned to sleep on the hay for one night.
Sleeping directly on the ground…
"Come up, two people squeeze."
Xie Mingtu didn't dare to do anything to her, what he really wanted to do, he should have done it long ago.
Su Xiaoman was very sleepy at the moment, hugging the wet quilt and squeezing into the corner, she turned her body on her side, and could not take up much space on the bed.
Xie Mingtu lay down beside her, turned his back to her without saying a word, and the rain was still there.
Su Xiaoman quickly lost consciousness and fell asleep.
apprentice.
Su Xiaoman slept heartlessly, but Xie Mingtu, who was motionless next to him, opened his eyes and couldn't sleep, listening to the tick-tock rain.
Xie Mingtu doesn't like Su Xiaoman.
The previous Su Xiaoman also rejected and disliked him. They hated each other, but today's Su Xiaoman, why has it changed?
Remembering the smile he saw during the day, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he could hear his own heartbeat in his ears.
…even he himself became a little strange.
He glanced silently at the sleeping woman beside him, got out of bed, and sat on the haystack all night.
The next morning when he went to work in the production team, Xie Mingtu's eyes were dark blue, but he kept his head down and his hair was disheveled, and no one noticed this.
I slept until dawn, when Su Xiaoman woke up, the rain had stopped long ago, she stretched and felt extremely comfortable, she hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time .
I didn't expect the roof leaked last night, and she could sleep so soundly.
She was the only one left in the room, and the tub was cleaned up last night. Su Xiaoman changed her clothes, her long black hair fell on her shoulders, she grabbed it with her hands at will Grab it, and suddenly see a peach wood comb on the wooden table.
It is a very beautiful wooden comb with a simple bamboo pattern, is it her comb?
Su Xiaoman didn't remember the comb, she held the comb in her hand and smelled a faint fragrance, and suddenly remembered Su Xiaoman's comb before, as if it broke when she was angry.
And this comb... Could it be that Xie Mingtu prepared it?
Su Xiaoman combed the ends of her hair, thinking that she would know when the other party came back and asked.
Standing beside the water well with the wooden comb, hesitating whether to make a braid?
The pressure well under the osmanthus tree is shared by three or four families in the village. It is the closest to Xie's house. Su Xiaoman presses the water out, washes his face with a towel, and begins to comb his hair.
There was no one around at this time, so I guess they all went to work.
A five- or six-year-old girl ran out of nowhere, with a dark face and bright eyes, she stopped beside Su Xiaoman and looked at the beautiful headbands curiously.
Su Xiaoman raised her head and recognized who this little girl was. She was the eldest daughter of Sister Xie Sansao.
She was about to speak to the little girl, when another person came out of the corner, it was the third sister-in-law Xie who was cursing at her yesterday.
