Chapter 266: it's me who wants to occupy you
Nan Jun smiled and refused, "No need, I'm fast, and it doesn't take much effort to walk, you go first!"
Ever since Mrs. Wang went to the house, Qiao Yun cared very much about the two sons of the village chief's family. How could Nan Jun get close to them again?
"You child! Why are you being polite to us? It's all by the way."
As soon as Wang said that, he was about to get off the car. He wanted Nan Jun to be his daughter-in-law, so he wanted to get closer to her.
"The things in my bag are not clean, and my two younger brothers are still there. It would be bad if blood gets on the car."
Nan Jun knew that the ancients cared about **** things, so he said this on purpose.
Qiao Yan and Qiao Yu didn't think there was anything wrong, but Wang's expression changed instantly.
His daughter still had to take the scientific examination, and his two sons hadn't been married yet, so it would be bad if they were infected with these filth.
But Nan Jun was the one he liked, so Wang felt sorry for leaving her alone.
"We'll be there soon, let's stop being so polite."
Nan Jun still wanted to go home earlier to accompany Qiao Yun, how could he have time to chat with them here?
"Forget it, since the child is for our own good, you don't have to force it. Then Nanjun, we will go first. If you don't want to walk when you go back in the afternoon, you can wait for us under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the town."
The village chief finally spoke, and Nan Jun hurriedly responded: "Yes".
Seeing the bullock cart swaying forward, Nan Jun simply slowed down, and she didn't want to get too close to the village head's family, so there was no misunderstanding.
Nan Jun stuffed all the silver he had exchanged into the purse that Qiao Yun made for him, and then went to buy goods according to Qiao Yun's instructions.
Because there were a lot of things to buy, Nan Jun planned to hire a carriage when he went back. In this case, Nan Jun simply prepared all the necessities for the New Year in advance.
According to last year's practice, Nan Jun still went to pick out jewelry and cloth for Qiao Yun first. This year, the family had some savings, so Nan Jun pulled a small piece of brocade silk for Qiao Yun.
Such a silky fabric made into an inner garment will not scratch the skin and is comfortable to wear.
Then he pulled two more snow silks, and when he saw the bright red silk cloth on the side, Nan Jun couldn't help but think of the tears that Qiao Yun secretly shed behind her back all these years.
He should also like her!
Because he was afraid that she would leave, he cried secretly.
That being the case, she should have reassured him earlier.
"Shopkeeper, wrap up this red silk for me too!"
Even if she can't give him a wedding right now, if the wedding dress is ready earlier, it can be regarded as her promise to him!
Estimating the money on his body, Nan Jun bought another simple gold hairpin for Qiao Yun.
After everything was ready, Nan Jun went to buy the things Qiao Yun explained.
When Nan Jun came back, he pulled a carriage full of things, Qiao Yun pursed his lips and glared at her, but he was not willing to say a word to her.
She bought all these things for herself, and the family's life was relatively affluent, so it was difficult for Qiao Yun to say anything. Now, he doesn't need to worry too much about these things.
After all, if Nan Jun married him, their dowry and dowry would not be needed, and the money saved would be enough for them to live for many years.
Qiao Yun couldn't help being stunned when he saw the red silk that Nanjun had placed on the kang.
"Make the wedding dress earlier, and save it for next year when we get married."
Nan Jun took Qiao Yun's hand, took out the golden hairpin from his bosom and put it in his palm.
"Because I don't have much money on me, I can only afford this hairpin. I will give you better ones in the future."
Qiao Yun clenched the hairpin in his hand, his nose felt sore.
She often gave him jewelry, even though he was never willing to wear it, and always complained about her wasting money, she didn't refute it, and she still enjoyed it.
"I didn't want to marry at the beginning, and I never thought of occupying you..."
Qiao Yun raised those red eyes to look at Nan Jun, and explained in a low voice.
"I know, from beginning to end, I want to occupy you."
Qiao Yun didn't marry because she was afraid that Nanjun would be wronged, how could she not understand?
After listening to Nan Jun's words, Qiao Yun was both ashamed and happy, and hurriedly put away the things in his hands, and then went to move the pot on the ground.
"I can still think about building a base on the wall, but this stove...is really difficult for me."
Apart from being able to build a simple grill, Nan Jun really couldn't build a stove.
"You can ask Erniang Qiao to build the stove. She is the best at doing this. She helped build the two stoves at home!"
Qiao Yun watched Nan Jun take the newly bought cauldron from her hand, followed her out of the house, and said while looking at the small stove outside.
"Then I'll go find her and see if she's free. You should prepare more meals."
If anyone in the village needs a favor or something, most of them don't need money, they just need to have a full meal.
Seeing Nan Jun go out, Qiao Yun roughly packed up the things she bought and piled them up at the end of the kang, and then busily went to make food.
Qiao Erniang was really quick, and it didn't take long for her to rebuild a stove according to the size of Nanjun's newly bought pot.
"This new stove needs to be burned for a while, and it won't emit wet smoke when it's dry."
Looking at the smoking stove, Qiao Erniang patted the dirt on her hands.
"I'm sorry, Erniang, you have made a trip. Go and sit in the house for a while, and dinner will be ready later."
Because he wanted to be with Qiao Erniang, Nan Jun didn't go to help Qiao Yun.
Fortunately, Qiao Yun always cooks neatly, so he quickly brought over a pot of chicken.
"Erniang, this is what Nanjun hunted this morning, it's fresh, you should try it quickly."
Qiao Yun handed the chopsticks to Qiao Erniang, and Nan Jun also passed a pair, and then went outside to the cellar to bring out a small jar of rice wine, this wine was left by his mother when he was alive, because no one else Drink, and have been buried in the cellar.
After so many years, the mellow aroma of that wine has become stronger and stronger.
"Nan Jun has been taking my two sisters to the mountains to hunt some wild animals and come back. I haven't thanked you yet. Now I'm just helping you with this little favor. How can I have the nerve to eat at home?"
Looking at the dishes on the table that can only be eaten during Chinese New Year, Qiao Erniang said with a little shame.
"Er Niang, what are you talking about? You have helped us a lot these years, so let's stop talking about those nonsense."
Although Nan Jun didn't know how Qiao Erniang treated Qiao Yun and the others in the past, he knew that Qiao Erniang was an honest and kind person. There was a small description of her in the book. When Qiao Yun was in the most difficult time, Qiao Erniang Once lent him a laying chicken.
Not to mention anything else, in this era of starvation, it is rare for someone to be willing to lend you a dustpan, let alone a chicken that lays eggs.
