Reborn female match

"How much do you want?"

In the end, An Tong still failed to act according to her previous thoughts. After all, she was still thinking about how to make Xu Xiangru live a good life so that she could not become the heroine!

"It's not too cold today, and if you stock too much, it might break if you can't use it all up, so just ask for three scales." Xu Xiangru said.

A piece of briquette has stronger firepower than charcoal, but it burns longer than charcoal. Xu's family can only have food and clothing with Xu San around. Coal and charcoal can be saved if they can be used sparingly.

An Tong asked An Xin to take three scales for her but didn't charge her money, and said: "It's just three scales, my family doesn't lack money for these three scales."

Xu Xiangru stared at her for a long time, stuffed 180 Wen into her hand, and said: "Miss An reminded me not long ago to keep the money well, lest my father spend it. I After thinking about it, I feel that this money is not safe to put anywhere, so I might as well use it, my father can't spend these coals and charcoal, right?"

An Tong felt that it made sense, so he accepted the money, and asked An Xin to help her move the three scales of coal back to Xu's house.An Xin looked like she had seen a ghost, why did his little lady suddenly treat Xu Xiangru so well?

Xu Xiangru also had doubts in his heart, although these things An Tong did were very common, but they were commonplace in other people's homes, but when they appeared on An Tong's body, it was called "everything goes wrong, there must be a demon".

"What are you looking at, do you want me to pay the extra charcoal tax?" An Tong couldn't help saying fiercely, his face heated up by Xu Xiangru's gaze.

Xu Xiangru breathed a sigh of relief, as expected, he was still a normal An Tong.

Not long after Xu Xiangru left, An Lizheng came back, An Tong mentioned to him about selling the coal to the Xu family, he said: "It's not a big deal, just let Uncle Cai keep the accounts."

It was rare for An Tong to get along with her, so she took the opportunity to cheat on many things that she thought her memory had blurred.Anli saw that she was very interested, so he picked out many interesting things related to her and told them.In the end, An Tong mentioned his marriage with Jiang Sheng'an in a circumstantial way, and An Li was slightly frowning.

"Father, what's the matter?" An Tong pretended not to notice her father's expression.

An Lizheng shook his head and said with a smile, "Tong'er wants to get married?"

An Tong was speechless for a while, she just asked about this matter, why does her father think that she wants to marry?In order to prevent her father from mistakenly thinking that she had a deep affection for Jiang Sheng'an, she quickly clarified: "I don't want to marry. If I marry, what will father and mother do?"

An Lizheng has only had one wife, Li Jinxiu, for half of her life. As for whether she has a concubine...Anyway, in An Tong's memory, there was no other woman around her father.

The couple had only one child, An Tong, and it was difficult to conceive another child because of Li Jinxiu's dystocia. It happened that An Tong was a daughter, and An Lizheng didn't use this as an excuse to take a concubine, so the relationship between the couple was very good.

An Tong felt that once she got married, her parents would feel lonely, how could this not make her feel sad?Thinking about being killed in the previous life, but being so stigmatized, for them, they not only lost their only child, but also had to be pointed out because of her.

An Tong's heart throbbed for a while, and tears flowed out fragilely again.

An Li was startled, but today is the second time An Tong cried in front of him, before An Tong was rarely wronged, he was only absent for half a day, what happened?

An Tong wiped away her tears, and took the opportunity to say: "Father, I don't want to marry Jiang Sheng'an anymore."

An Li was stroking her head and said, "Then I won't marry."

An Tong was overjoyed, and wanted to propose a divorce, but she couldn't understand her father's thoughts for a while, so she asked tentatively: "Doesn't father want me to marry into the Jiang family?"

An Lizheng was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Father and your mother are thinking of recruiting a son-in-law for you. After all, someone has to take over such a large family property of the An family. That child Sheng An is not bad, he is smart and has a good understanding Status, but it is also because he is too smart and outstanding, so he will definitely shine in the officialdom. Besides, the Jiang family is not our family, and Sheng'an can't guarantee that he won't have three wives and four concubines. Parents don't want you to marry and suffer feel wronged."

An Tong finally remembered why he was sure that An Lizheng had thought of retiring the engagement. It was a few years ago that An Lizheng and Li Jinxiu were sure that they could no longer have children, so they slowly came up with the idea of ​​retiring the engagement and asking An Tong to recruit a son-in-law.They discussed in the study, and she listened to them.

But why did she forget about it?She thinks it has something to do with her own headaches too.

"But if you really like Sheng An, your parents won't object." An Lizheng said again, "With your parents backing you, the Jiang family will definitely not dare to go too far."

An Tong was very moved, she said: "Father, I just regard Sheng An as my elder brother, I have no feelings for him, and I don't want to marry him."

An Li was frowning: "It's a pity that this marriage was arranged by you, Aunt, and the horoscope was correct long ago, and there is still a marriage contract. If the marriage is canceled rashly, the Jiang family may target the An family, after all..."

An Tong also knew that even though Jiang Daofang was only an eighth-rank county lieutenant, the county lieutenant could judge all the cao and urge taxes to be collected.As a township official, Anli is mainly responsible for supervising and collecting taxes. Whenever two taxes are collected, they have to be transported to the county government, and it is not uncommon for them to be exploited by the county government.

The reason why An Lizheng has not been exploited these years is also because of Jiang Daofang.Besides, Jiang Daofang has also gained a lot of benefits from the An family over the years. Once the two families cannot become in-laws, he will lose the benefits. How can he be willing to do this?

An Tong was stunned, she was too naive.I thought that because Jiang Sheng'an had another relationship, he would be able to divorce smoothly, but I didn't expect that this matter would be as difficult as the other two plans.

"Father, we can't mention the divorce, how about letting the Jiang family mention it?" An Tong said again.

"Why do you suddenly have to divorce?" An Lizheng was puzzled.

An Tong thought something was wrong, and hurriedly hugged An Lizheng's arm and acted like a spoiled child: "Father, my daughter must retire, but she just wants to help her parents relieve their worries."

An Lizheng smiled gratifiedly: "Tong'er has a heart, but it is not easy for the Jiang family to voluntarily withdraw from the engagement. If you really don't want to marry, you have to discuss this matter in a long-term way. When your mother comes back, I will discuss it with her."

An Tong also knew that she was impatient, but she had already mentioned this matter, and if she mentioned it later, her parents would not be suspicious.Thinking of this, she is in a good mood!

At night, An Tong's head hurt again, but the pain was not as severe as before.She thought that she had just returned from rebirth and ran around without touching her feet. She must have been exhausted, so she simply lay back on the bed early.

Fortunately, she didn't feel the pain in her head after she fell asleep, but she saw the paper flying all over the sky again, but there was no weird sound from the letter paper.

An Tong thought she had returned to the chaos again, she looked down at her body, and found that it was a little white and pale just like before she came back.She raised her head and wanted to grab the papers, hoping that she could peek into more things, but no matter how she jumped or stretched out her hands, she couldn't touch them.

Just as she became more and more anxious, two pairs of rough hands stretched out from a piece of paper and grabbed her. She was startled, and the memory of being grabbed and thrown into the river came to mind...

"Ah—" An Tong screamed, struggling desperately.

Opening his eyes suddenly, the surroundings looked very dark. The light outside the window cast the shadow of the window lattice onto the floor tiles in the house, flickering with the swaying of the lantern.

An Tong clutched her chest, trying to calm her beating heart.And that dream was too real and terrifying, she knew that no matter how much time had passed, she still couldn't forget that nightmare.

After believing in the existence of ghosts and gods, she has an inexplicable fear of the dark. She wants to light up the surroundings, but she dare not get out of bed.In the end, she could only hug the quilt and keep her eyes open until dawn. After hearing the cock crowing outside, she was exhausted and fell asleep peacefully.

An Lizheng cared for her that she slept until midnight and didn't wake up: "But I'm sick, do you want Dad to ask the doctor to come back and take a look at you?"

An Tong suppressed a yawn, and said: "No need, Dad, I just went to bed very late last night, so I couldn't get up in the morning."

"But didn't you arrange it early last night?"

"I had a nightmare and couldn't sleep."

Anli was thinking about it, and said with relief: "Your mother will come back soon, ask her to ask for a talisman to carry with you. Even if you don't believe in those things, you still have to take it with you, understand?"

An Tong didn't dare not believe in ghosts and gods, so she hurriedly responded, and after eating something, she went to her field again.

The weather is getting colder and colder. I don't know if it is affected by the weather. An Tong feels that the atmosphere in Fuqiu Village is also a little deserted.However, it is not surprising that at this time the strong people in the village must be working in the fields, while the women either weave at home or wash clothes by the river, and the children catch fish or herd cattle in the shallow river in twos and threes. , and some are studying in the village school, there are really not many idlers like An Tong.

Fuqiu Village is surrounded by water on three sides, and there are many rivers, but the river where An Tong's accident happened is not near Fuqiu Village.That river is at the foot of Fuqiu Mountain, the river channel is very deep, and the river mud is black, and it also emits a lot of smell.There is a lot of grass and thorns growing around the river, which breeds a lot of mosquitoes.

In fact, places with rivers are very popular, but this river is at the foot of Fuqiu Mountain, and Fuqiu Mountain is often infested with wild animals, and it is surrounded by wasteland that is harder to cultivate than low-grade fields, so few people go there.Since many people drowned in these years, no one came here, and children from every family were strictly told not to go there.

An Tong had a shadow on that place, and she never dared to approach it even half a step. Not only that, she also avoided other rivers when she saw them.No wonder she is timid, because her fear of drowning has a great shadow.

When she came to her own acre of land, she saw An Xin helping to water the land. The water was picked from a small pond not far away. With An Xin's physical strength, the watering would be finished soon.

"Little lady!" An Xin called out when she saw An Tong.

"I'm so sorry for you again, An Xin." An Tong said.

An Xin was sold to An's family when he was very young, so An Lizheng gave him the surname "An".He smiled shyly, and said: "It's not miserable at all, this is what the little ones should do. The water will be finished soon here, and the little lady doesn't have to go down to the ground herself, so as not to dirty her shoes."

An Tong didn't listen to him, she went down to the ground to check if there was any grass growing, and said: "If I shrink back because my shoes will be stained with mud, I won't ask Dad to cultivate such a place by myself. Besides, , Clothes, shoes and socks are always dirty, when walking on the road, the shoes are already stained with sand and dust, what is the difference now?"

An Xin was so ashamed that she couldn't speak, she sighed secretly in her heart: "It's still the little lady who thinks clearly."

An Lan came to look for An Tong again. Seeing her weeding, she squatted on the field ridge and said, "Sister, you are really full and have nothing to do. Let An Xin and the others do it for you. You can play with me." Well!"

An Tong said: "Why are you so free today? Usually, after you run away from home and return home, don't you always get a sum of money and go to the county town to buy more pearls, emeralds, silks and satins?"

"I'm not a little lady from a rich family, how can I always buy jewels and jade ornaments!"

Don't say how much An Xin wanted to refute An Lan after hearing this, even An Tong couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth, and said, "You're right, they are all children of poor families, why don't you come down to help me with work?" ?”

An Lan didn't want to do it, her hands were white and tender, not to mention going to the ground, on weekdays she felt that her hands hurt when she went to make two dumplings herself.An Tong is already engaged, so she doesn't need to worry about being rejected by others for her dark skin. She hasn't found her husband's family yet, so she naturally wants to keep her fair and tender skin.

She shrank her hands and said: "Sister, it will be fine if you ignore this field for a while, but if you miss the good show, it will be difficult to see."

"What good show?"

"When I came here, I passed by Xu San's house, and I heard Xu Wang's cry. It seemed that Xu San was beating someone again if he didn't have money."
