Wear It with Space - Chapter 11
After Li Matchmaker left, the old couple called Shen Ling over and told Shen Ling what Li Matchmaker meant for coming.
Shen Ling thought about it carefully. Although Xiaodie, the fourth son of Old Man Li, had never seen this person, it was rumored that this person was very spoiled at home, and he was a bit lazy. She couldn’t help saying: “Daddy, what do you mean?”
Father Zhao sighed: “If the Li family’s four children are just lazy, my mother and I might still agree to this marriage. But I faintly listened, the Li family’s four children seem to like the daughter of the Zheng family, who had I went to the main house to make a kiss at home.” He looked up at his daughter, “So your mother and I thought about it and felt that this marriage could not be done. It is not a good thing for this man to have other women in his heart. You may say that you are old. It’s a little older, but my parents don’t want to marry you hastily. This is a lifetime matter.”
Shen Ling recollected that they dare to love Father Zhao and they are afraid that they want to accept this marriage. After all, this is the first time in a few years that a matchmaker has come to propose marriage. The old couple are afraid that their girls will be confused for a while, so they said this. The remarks.
She relaxes her heart and feels thankful that Xiaodie has such parents who care for her.
“Daddy, I listen to you.”
The old couple’s heart was also let go. Father Zhao said to his wife: “I said the girl is quite sensible recently, you still don’t believe it.”
Aunt Zhao said: “Who said I don’t believe it anymore.” She looked at Shen Ling, “Xiaodie, today is the day of the fair in the town. How about my mother accompany you to pull a few feet of cloth?” This is the only thing for the old couple. A girl is also willing to spend money on her girl, but the girl is a stupefied temper, she ran away when she heard of cutting cloth to make clothes.
Shen Ling smiled and said: “Mother, I know what you mean. I have been to town so many times, so I don’t need you to be with me. I can do it myself.” When she was still Chunni earlier, she bought herself a piece of light. The cyan fabric was finished and I didn’t wear it a few times. She thought it might be used in the future, and put it into the space when the mission was about to end.
If Aunt Zhao followed, she wouldn’t be able to use it.
Aunt Zhao only needs her daughter to buy cloth to make clothes. It’s rare that she relentlessly agreed, and she didn’t want to force her too tight, so she didn’t reluctantly. She took out her purse, took out a hundred dollars, and told her daughter: “Remember to go to the Nanji Cloth Shop opposite to the Taibai Restaurant. There are many good-looking fabrics there. By the way, help me carry some silk threads. Remember to pick some good-looking fabrics. Don’t want those gray and autumn colors.”
Shen Ling responded one by one without expressing any impatience. Aunt Zhao looked in her eyes and felt that the girl might be really open. When she went out, she stuffed her with more than 20 large sums of money and asked her to buy some. Snacks that I want to eat.
From the three tiled houses in the east of the village, walk a small road to the west and you will reach a avenue. Follow the avenue to the north, and you will reach the town at the mouth of Zhao Dani, which is Qinglong Town.
Shen Ling followed Zhao Auntie’s instructions to the Nanji Cloth House. The fabric inside did have a lot of patterns. After a long time picking and choosing, Shen Ling finally chose a piece of primrose-colored fabric. Fluttershy’s complexion is dark, and the color that is too delicate makes her dark. Although the primrose color is not very fresh, it is better than fresh and can enhance her complexion.
After the guy wrapped the cloth, Shen Ling chose several brightly colored silk threads from the counter.
After coming out of the cloth village, Shen Ling turned into a path paved with blue bricks and walked over a stone arch bridge to a street along the river. This street is lonelier than the street where the cloth village is located. There are only one or two shops. There are only a few country folks on the street carrying a load and selling around. There are not only vegetables but also fresh fruits in that load.
Shen Ling finally stopped in front of a vegetable farmer who looked very honest. The vegetables in the vegetable farmer’s burden were very fresh, and some of the vegetables were still covered with soil. At first sight, they had just been smashed from the ground.
Shen Ling picked a lot of vegetables and fruits, and finally asked the vegetable farmer if he had any rapeseed in his hands.
Vegetable Farm Road: “The rapeseed that was reserved last year was planted in the field. If the little girl wants it, I will ask my neighbor for some. You will come back in the next episode.”
Shen Ling said: “Then thank you uncle.”
The two were talking, and the vegetable and fruit picked out by the vegetable farmer had already weighed it, “A total of seventeen cents.”
Shen Ling took out the money from his purse and handed it over. Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the street, mixed with a few shouts.
“Someone fell into the water.”
Shen Ling took the vegetables and fruits, walked a few steps forward, and saw that a man fell in the river facing the street at some point. He was struggling to swim ashore, but he might not know how to water, so he threw himself. After a few strokes, it gradually sank.
Many people stood on the shore watching the excitement, but none of them went down to save people.
Seeing that human life is a matter of life, Shen Ling put the vegetables and fruits on the bank, put the cloth in his arms, and jumped neatly into the river.
Fluttershy went fishing with Daddy Zhao when he was ten years old, and the water quality is naturally excellent. Soon, she found the man who fell into the river and rescued him smoothly.
The man didn’t fall for a long time, and there was nothing serious about him. He just drank a few sips of river water, and quickly eased over, and immediately knocked his head towards Shen Ling.
Shen Ling was taken aback and hurriedly said, “What are you doing, get up quickly.” After she entered the water, her clothes were soaked, and she didn’t want to be watched by those who watched the excitement. After saying this, she picked it up and let it go. The vegetables and fruits on the shore are gone.
Fortunately, it was May and June when Shen Ling wrung out the water on his clothes. After a while, the clothes were mostly dry. When she walked home, the clothes were almost dry.
Aunt Zhao has already prepared lunch and is waiting for her to come back for dinner. When Shen Ling entered the water, he quietly put the fabric and silk thread into the space, and quietly took it out when he was on the road. At this time, he showed Aunt Zhao along with the light blue clothes that he had made, and the family washed their hands and ate.
After lunch, Father Zhao took the fish that could not be sold to the sun. Aunt Zhao took out the fabric and prepared to cut Shen Ling’s clothes. While making gestures, she said to Shen Ling: “Mother is not good at doing it. Don’t buy the finished garments anymore.”
Shen Ling smiled and said, “I see. I just saw the embroidered flowers on the clothes look pretty.”
Aunt Zhao said: “The flower is well embroidered, but it’s not impossible for my mother to embroider it. In the future, tell my mother what flower you want to embroider on your clothes.”
Shen Ling smiled and said, “Just embroider the flowers on that dress, but use orange-red silk thread.” The light cyan dress is embroidered with tender yellow roses. It took her several afternoons to embroider it. , Looks elegant and delicate.
The mother and daughter were talking, and Father Zhao came in, his face was a little weird and said: “I was drying the dried fish outside just now. I heard that the Li family ran away.”
Aunt Zhao said: “What did you say, what do you mean by running away.”
Father Zhao said: “You don’t know if you ran away, you just ran away from home.” He coughed, “It doesn’t matter if you leave, you don’t have to talk to the matchmaker.” He originally planned to wait for the matchmaker in a few days. When I came back again, I declined the marriage. However, something happened to the Li family. In this way, Xiaodie won’t have to become a picky reputation.
Shen Ling saw that her father didn’t seem to care about this, but the look on her face was a bit wrong, and couldn’t help asking: “Father, is there something else you didn’t say?”
Father Zhao glanced at her, with a puzzled look on his face, and said: “Not far from our house, there is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man, looking at Yansheng, he doesn’t look like someone nearby. I asked him what he was doing here, but he didn’t say it. It was really strange.” He shook his head and went out.
Shen Ling didn’t take it to heart either, watching Aunt Zhao do the needlework for a while, she couldn’t sit still, and was about to go out and help Daddy Zhao make dried fish.
Walking out of the three tiled houses of Zhao’s family, there is a square courtyard. In front of the courtyard is a large piece of sand. Papa Zhao simply used bamboo poles to build a bamboo frame on the sand, and the small fish that could not be sold out were dried on it.
When Shen Ling passed by, Father Zhao had already dried more than half, and the father and daughter worked together, and soon hung all the remaining fish on the shelf. Shen Ling picked up the straw rope on the ground, and listened to Father Zhao saying, “Xiaodie, the younger generation has been watching you, isn’t it someone you know?”
Shen Ling looked back and saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen standing not far away, who was the person she had saved in the town. But how did he find here?
She looked at Daddy Zhao with a little embarrassment: “Father, that person seems to be following me.” She told Daddy Zhao one by one about saving people in the town.
After hearing this, Father Zhao said: “You kid didn’t say too early that people stood in the sun for so long for nothing.” After saying that, he walked towards the younger generation.
I don’t know what Dad Zhao said to the man, but when the man nodded, the two finally came over together.
Father Zhao said to Xiaodie: “Hurry up and go back to the fire and heat up the rest of the food. I have already asked, this child hasn’t eaten for several days.”
When the hot meal was served, the family of three watched the man devour three bowls of brown rice.
Shen Ling passed the dried boiled water over, and the man took a few sips and drank it cleanly.
Seeing that he was full and full, Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao asked you to say something to me, and quickly figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that the man’s name was Zhao Gang, a family member from a neighboring county. His widow passed away a year ago. Before he died, he asked him to defect to his uncle who was doing business in Qinglong Town. However, my uncle went to another place, and the money he was carrying was stolen again, so he could only help others in the town. The working master deceived him as a foreigner, and he has been reluctant to pay him. He couldn’t bear it, and quarreled with the master’s house. Not only did he fail to get his wages, but instead he accidentally fell into the river because of pushing and shoving on the bank.
He was hungry for a few days, his hands and feet couldn’t get energized, and he was rescued by Shen Ling as a duck. In order to repay his gratitude, and secondly, there was really nowhere to go, so he followed Shen Ling and slowly followed all the way.
