Reborn female match
Chapter 17 Going Out
Jiang Sheng'an and Shao Ru were helping Granny Zhang put new thatch on the roof, while An Tong and Xu Xiangru stood not far away and watched.Although it's not kind for the two of them to stand on the sidelines, in fact An Tong has nothing to do with Granny Zhang, and she doesn't need to help.
"But why do you take such good care of Granny Zhang over and over again?" An Tong asked Xu Xiangru.
Last time Xu Xiangru mentioned that when Shao Ru went to An's house to work as a maid, Granny Zhang was left unattended, so An Tong knew that Xu Xiangru's relationship with Shao Ru was not good, but it did not prevent her from caring for Granny Zhang.
"I am kind-hearted." Xu Xiangru said.
An Tong believed it was true, and asked again: "But you and Shao Ru don't seem to get along very well. Could it be that you still hate her for exposing you for pulling out my seedlings?"
Xu Xiangru frowned, and looked at An Tong with complicated eyes.After a long time, she finally said in a serious manner: "I didn't expect Miss An to still remember Shao Ru's achievements!"
Tsk, as expected, being kind-hearted doesn't hinder Xu Xiangru's small belly!
Over there, Jiang Sheng'an has already paved thatch for Granny Zhang, and Granny Zhang came out of the house with water and handed it to him, smiling very kindly: "Thank you sir, sir, you are such a good person!"
Jiang Sheng'an smiled and said, "I'm the only man here, so I should naturally do these things."
Shao Ru wiped off her sweat, and found a piece of thatch on Jiang Sheng'an's head, so she reached out and picked it off.Jiang Shengan looked at her with a trace of surprise in his eyes, but also very gentle, and the smile on his face was even brighter.
Xu Xiangru squinted his eyes, turned his head to look at An Tong, but found that An Tong didn't see the two people's actions at all, but was lowering his head and grabbing his wrist, and the arm under the sleeve was scratched by her. mark.
Xu Xiangru grabbed her wrist and said, "If you scratch it any longer, you will see blood."
An Tong sighed: "I never felt that thatch would be so itchy when I tied thatch for you. Now I feel uncomfortable all over. If I'm not outside, I really want someone to scratch my back for me."
Xu Xiangru stopped arguing with her about the responsibility, stretched out his hand and scratched her back a few times through the clothes, and said, "Just go back and take a shower and change clothes."
An Tong twisted his body: "If you try harder, I wear too many clothes and I can't feel it. Try harder."
Xu Xiangru looked at Shao Ru in the distance, and raised her chin: "What are your two maidservants for?" But in the end, she did as she wished, with a little extra effort.
Only then did An Tong look up at Shao Ru. Shao Ru was helping Granny Zhang back to the house, while Jiang Sheng'an was standing in the yard dusting off the thatch debris from his body.Let him, a high-spirited Jieju who claims that "everything is inferior except for his studies", do these menial tasks, and he will really win a good impression.
It's just why he didn't behave like this in the Xu family just now. Could it be that he didn't want her to find out about the "adultery" between them?
"It's getting late, Xiao Tong, I'm going back now, please tell Uncle Shi, I won't come to the door to say goodbye anymore." Jiang Shengan said to An Tong.
An Tong naturally wouldn't stop him, besides, he still wished for him to leave soon.He also said goodbye to Xu Xiangru, and left Fuqiu Village happily.
Two days later, Xu Xiangru came to An's house as promised.The servants and tenants of An's family had already started preparing donkey carts and horse-drawn carts, and she saw Ren Cuirou's parents and some villagers under the tree in front of An's house.
She guessed that Ren Cuirou's parents wanted to ask her to help her buy some new year's goods and go home, after all her mother Xu Wang's plan was the same.
Xu San wanted to be in charge of buying the new year's goods, but neither Xu Wang nor she dared to hand over the money to him, so he could only curse and leave the house and ignore the mother and daughter.
An's family prepared five donkey carts and two horse-drawn carts, and the formation looked very large.But this is not surprising. The rituals for ordinary people to buy winter solstice are common and simple things, such as steamed buns and wontons made of rice and flour.
But An's family is not an ordinary family. They have to prepare [-] or [-] sets of gifts just for tenants and relatives and friends, and they also prepare more dried bacon than ordinary families.Especially before the winter solstice, ancestors have to be worshiped. Three animals are needed for ancestor worship, sheep, pigs and chickens instead of cows.
In addition to the time when the autumn tax was collected, every tenant farmer pulled out a strong force to help transport the rice to the county warehouse. Although An's family paid wages, they still had to subsidize some gifts, so that next time they would Will work harder.
An's family also prepared an extra carriage to help the villagers bring their things, because they arrived in Laba more than ten days after the winter solstice, and Zhengdan was after Laba. So I bought all the New Year's goods and gifts.
Some families really don't have the conditions to go to the city, and they will ask the people who go to the city to help bring things.Everyone knew that Anli was being fair and would not take away their belongings at will, so they all came to ask him for help.
An Tong came out yawning, feeling the wind outside, so he closed the cloak on his body again.
At this time, the sky was still so blue that the morning light could not be seen, the lantern outside Anjiamen swayed slightly in the wind, and the figures of busy people under the lantern swayed with the light.
An Tong looked around and found that Xu Xiangru had arrived as scheduled, so he shook his head to refresh himself and walked over with a smile on his face: "Why did you come so early?"
"It's two quarters of Yin time, it's getting late." Xu Xiangru said, "Miss An seems to be in a bad mood, but she didn't sleep well last night?"
An Tong really didn't sleep well last night, and somehow she had a nightmare that she hadn't dreamed of for a long time, but it had nothing to do with her death, but some familiar plots in the book flashed before her eyes, making her faint I remembered something, but in a flash, it became blurred again.
When she woke up, she tried to figure out what she had dreamed about, or recalled something through the nightmare, but the result was that her head hurt again.For this reason, she got up one rare night and called Shao Ru up to prepare some hot goat milk for her. After drinking it, it took about an hour before she fell asleep.
"Yes, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep at night when I thought about going out with you today for the New Year's ceremony," An Tong said.
Xu Xiangru opened his eyes slightly, and turned his face away after a while: "...is it worth being so excited to go out with me?"
An Tong is gearing up: "Think about it, if you make me angry on the road, I can throw you out of the car and let you fend for yourself. Tell me, is this worth the joy and expectation?"
"..." If I believe you again, I will be a fool!Xu Xiangru said heartily.
Xu Xiangru walked to a donkey cart that had been prepared, An Tong gave her a hand, and pointed to the carriage behind: "Let's take the carriage."
Xu Xiangru raised his eyebrows: "I also have this kind of treatment?"
"There is no need to doubt, after all, I am a good person, a good person with a kind heart!"
"Then I'd like to thank the good man first." Xu Xiangru smiled slightly.
An Lizheng and Li Jinxiu also came out, and they asked An Xin, who was going with them, to help An Tong from the side. An Xin already had experience, so she hurriedly responded.
After starting from Fuqiu Village, An Tong and An Xin drove to the county seat first. At this time, the sun was rising and the morning light fell on the passers-by. It was another new day.
An Tong and the others ate breakfast first, and bought some steamed buns for the tenants who hadn't caught up. After handing them over to An Xin, she first went to various bacon shops and grain shops to choose good bacon and flour.As for the meat and vegetables for steamed buns, Fuqiu Village also has them, so there is no need to go to the county town to buy them.
As for the three animals used by the An family to worship their ancestors, except for the sheep that had to be bought at the sheep market, the An family had the other two.
After negotiating the price and signing the contract with the shopkeeper, just wait for the donkey cart to arrive and load it directly, and then go to buy the traditional Chinese New Year necessities such as wax medicine, new calendar, and brocade costumes entrusted by the villagers.
After everything was settled, it was noon before An Tong went to the restaurant to have a rest and have some snacks.
The wine shops in the county usually operate from night to morning, and there is no lunch at this time of noon, and generally they can only order some snacks.And after the time has passed, the restaurant will have to close, and it will not open again until evening to make a living.
An Tong didn't go to Second Uncle An's house. First, she brought Xu Xiangru with her, so it's not appropriate to come here like this;
An Xin found An Tong, and reported that all the shops had put the New Year's goods, festival gifts, etc. into the cart, and he also let the donkey cart go back to Fuqiu Village first.At the end, he even praised An Tong, after all, An Tong did it so well when he went out to do some errands for the first time, he deserves to be the little lady of the An family.
An Tong smiled and said: "Those are shops that have cooperated with An's family a lot in the past. To them, An's family is a big customer and a regular customer, so they will not do things that damage their reputation for a short-term gain. What! And the quantity of the goods is listed on the list, if I can't handle this, am I no different from a waste?"
An Xin didn't flatter An Tong anymore, but asked: "Is the little lady going home next?"
"No, I still want to take a walk. The boxing ceremony at home is done, but my things are not yet bought. You go back first, I have them here, so don't worry."
An Xin said: "How can this be? Before leaving, Alang asked the young lady to take good care of the young lady. If the young lady goes home, how can only these three ladies and the coachman take care of the young lady?"
"Other places may not work, but don't think about it. This is Taojiang. There may be one or two acquaintances of An's family out of ten people on this street. I just need to call out, and some people will come up to help. Besides, here With Jiang Shibo governing the stability of the county, there will be no young people who dare to cause trouble."
Xu Xiangru said: "Maybe he is worried about you causing trouble."
An Tong glared at her: Don't think you are the center of the book, I dare not stare at you anymore!
"Why, I'm so cute." An Tong said, then turned his head to An Xin and said, "Besides, having these three people around me is already conspicuous enough, if you follow, how can I pay attention? How about a leisurely stroll?"
An Xin could only sigh, and told Shao Ru and Ren Cuirou to take good care of An Tong.After thinking about it, he bowed to Xu Xiangru and said, "In the past, you didn't get along with the little lady, so I never liked you. But now I can only ask you to help protect my little lady."
Xu Xiangru pondered for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
An Tong was not convinced: "It is clear that I am protecting her!"
"But why do you take such good care of Granny Zhang over and over again?" An Tong asked Xu Xiangru.
Last time Xu Xiangru mentioned that when Shao Ru went to An's house to work as a maid, Granny Zhang was left unattended, so An Tong knew that Xu Xiangru's relationship with Shao Ru was not good, but it did not prevent her from caring for Granny Zhang.
