Mr. Li was stunned for a moment. She looked at Osmanthus without a word for a long time. Osmanthus stood at the door with her hands twisted together, feeling uneasy.

    "Go!" Mrs. Li suddenly said, Osmanthus stared at Mrs. Li with wide eyes, as if she couldn't believe it.

    "Go and see Dongzi, and tell him about the marriage at the end of the year. One more thing, at the end of last year, I saved cloth tickets or something, and your fourth uncle also gave it to him when he came back for Chinese New Year last year. Give me some, when you go to Bingcheng, bring cloth tickets and industrial tickets, and buy some things for marriage by the way, the fabrics sold there are better than the ones we sell here."

    Osmanthus' anxiety all night was dispelled by Mrs. Li's short words almost instantly, and she immediately covered her face and squatted on the ground and began to cry.

    Mr. Li sighed: "You are such a sturdy and sturdy child, why are you crying? In fact, it's not right for you to be gone, and the milk can also guess what's on your mind. But you Don't worry, Dongzi is not the kind of person with no conscience, otherwise the milk would not dare to just prepare the marriage for you, and besides, there is still milk, what are you afraid of?"

    "Milk!" Osmanthus wiped away the tears on her face, stood up from the ground, and a hint of decisiveness flashed on her face: "I will go to Bingcheng to find Brother Mingdong and ask clearly, if he really If you don't want to marry me, I'll be your granddaughter, I can't eat our family's meals for so many years, and then I won't marry and serve you, my parents, and my mother for the rest of my life."

    Lady Li couldn't help laughing when she heard Osmanthus' childish words, picked up the cigarette bag and tapped her head gently, and said with a half smile: "What nonsense, I have children If you have a grandson, what will you do for the rest of your life?"

    Osmanthus wiped away her tears again and couldn't help laughing, and Mrs. Li gave her a disgusting look: "I made a mess early in the morning, but I was buried and died, so I went to wash it quickly. Wash your face, and when you clean up, let's talk about going to Bingcheng in detail."

    Osmanthus laughed foolishly, took the basin to the tank to scoop up water to wash her face, Mrs. Li shook her head, moved a bench and sat under the wall to wait for Osmanthus.

    In the east room, Wang Sufen heard Mrs. Li and Osmanthus talking, and then she realized that Osmanthus was wrong for a while. She put on her shoes and got off the kang, and also sat on a bench. Next to Osmanthus, Osmanthus blushed suddenly, and called out softly, "Mom!" Then she lowered her head and said nothing.

    Mr. Li gave Wang Sufen a white look: "Why are you so clueless? I'm sorry I didn't see the child. Hurry up and cook, Osmanthus and I have something to say."

    Wang Sufen stood up and responded, and asked Osmanthus uneasy: "Don't think about it all day, you call me a mother for so many years, why do you suddenly fix it? It's like my daughter-in-law."

    Osmanthus was amused by Wang Sufen's straightforward consolation, and Wang Sufen walked back ramble: "Children today just think a lot, just like when we were young."

    Add two scoops of water to the pot, pour out a large bowl of rice noodles and mix it with water to make a paste of wild vegetables, and then take out a large piece of pickles from the tank, wash it twice and cut into shreds To prepare to eat mush in the morning.

    In the yard, Mrs. Li and Osmanthus were sitting face to face, and Mrs. Li said earnestly: "I agree with you to go to Bingcheng, but you are not going to go by yourself. You can wait for two days. It's autumn vacation, and when he comes home, let him go with you, and you will not be safe alone."

    "It's alright, milk." Osmanthus threw the braid behind her: "I'm such a big man, I'm usually not afraid to walk a mountain road for a day. Are you afraid of taking the train? Besides, you also let me go. In elementary school, Brother Ming Dong has taught me for a few years, and I know all these common words."

    "The milk knows your temperament, and it's not just to let Mingxi embolden you, don't you have to buy something, you can't take it alone." Mrs. Li watched as her family got up one after another , then dragged Osmanthus to his house: "I told you what to buy."

      Dong Yi made a new cotton-padded coat, and bought a few feet of brightly colored corduroy for Zhen Zhen, preferably red, our Zhen Zhen is white, it looks good.”

    Osmanthus responded, and Mrs. Li continued: "Let me put the cotton ticket here, and when I go to the street to buy it, this thing is the same everywhere, you don't have to take it all the way back. "

    Count the industrial tickets to Osmanthus: "Buy two iron-shell thermos back, preferably the bright red, festive. I also buy two enamel jars, by the way, for Zhen Zhen also bought one. She still uses the military water bottle sent by your uncle to drink water all day long. Don't think she doesn't know if she wants it now. When she is older next year, she will be unhappy. This time, she just bought a tank. I have to buy two, one for you, one for Zhen Zhen, I’ve been watching Zhen Zhen wash her face in the adult’s basin these days, I don’t seem happy, so I’ll buy one for her alone.” As Mrs. Li said, Osmanthus found a pen and paper. , wrote it down one stroke at a time.

    "I think what else is there?" Mrs. Li habitually lit her cigarette bag, thinking about it while smoking.

    Wang Sufen finished the meal, and came in and called the two of them: "Mother, let's have dinner first and then talk to Osmanthus in detail. It's not too bad. Osmanthus, hurry up and call your mother for dinner. "

    Osmanthus smiled and got off the kang: "My mother got up at dawn and went to the backyard to paint, I'll call her."

    "Oh, my mother got up too early, I didn't hear anything." Wang Sufen pursed her lips: "This is so troublesome, how can I make people work early in the morning? ."

    Zhen Zhen also woke up at this time, she was lying on the kang watching Wang Sufen pat her thighs, she couldn't help giggling, Wang Sufen patted her little butt, and hugged her according to the trend He got up and put on his clothes and trousers: "Mom steamed a chicken cake for Bao, is Bao's favorite food?"

    Zhen Zhen's small teeth appeared again this month, she nodded happily, and kissed Wang Sufen sweetly on the face: "Give it to Mom!"

    "I know to make your mother happy." Wang Sufen brought warm water over, washed Zhen Zhen's face and hands, and carried her to the kang table in the Westinghouse.

    Liu Chunhua and Osmanthus came in from the door, Wang Sufen hurriedly greeted Liu Chunhua to sit down: "I heard Osmanthus say you went to paint the kang qin early in the morning? Don't worry, we wanted to keep you for a few more days. How about accompany Osmanthus, this is because she is about to get married, and you also talk privately."

    Liu Chunhua smiled: "As long as I wake up, I won't be able to lie down, tossing and turning will only make Osmanthus flowers sleep well, so it's better to go out and draw two strokes and be more comfortable."

    Handed Liu Chunhua a piece of cake, Wang Sufen scooped Zhen Zhen's chicken cake into a small bowl and fed her one bite at a time. Liu Chunhua looked at Zhen Zhen's smart eyes with a bit of liking on her face: "Dongzi, mother of you, you look like a smart child, and there is aura in your eyes, you have to be nurtured well, when you grow up, let it be She's going to school, so don't delay her."

    Liu Chunhua is a cautious person. After coming to Lao Li's house, he didn't talk much about Osmanthus, but he actually said this for Zhen Zhen, which shows how sincere he is.

    Liu Chunhua's words also spoke to Mrs. Li's heart, she patted her thigh with an excited look on her face: "No wonder people with culture have good eyes, it's not that I praise my granddaughter , she is really a smart child. Even though she's only over eight months old, she seems to be able to understand when you talk to her. It's easy to worry about being a child, and it's especially painful not to cry or make trouble. "

    "Auntie loves the child, Zhen Zhen is blessed." Liu Chunhua smiled and looked at Zhen Zhen, then turned to look at Osmanthus: "Osmanthus is also enjoying her happiness."

    "They are all caring children, and they are painful." Mrs. Li picked up the big bowl and drank a round of wild vegetables: "Actually, I know that you also love sweet-scented osmanthus, but back then There's no way, if you're the kind of person who doesn't treat children like people, I won't let Osmanthus go back to her parents' home often."

     Putting down the bowl, Mrs. Li and Osmanthus said: "When I passed by your house, there was already a family who wanted to buy you, and they also took 30 catties of rice noodles. But your mother heard that His family is a stupid son, and they disagree. I happened to take 20 catties of soybeans to visit relatives that day. When I passed by your house, I fell in love with you at a glance. Your mother has heard of our family and knows that our old Li family is a kind person. , and no matter how many soybeans I bring, let me bring you back directly."

    Osmanthus put a piece of pickled vegetables into Liu Chunhua's bowl, and said softly, "I remember, when I came back with the milk, my mother was still crying and said sorry to me."

    Seeing that the atmosphere was a little sad, Wang Sufen quickly smiled and said: "It was really difficult at that time, now it's all better, Osmanthus is also grown up and will marry, and the days will be better in the future. ."

    The family finished their breakfast soon after talking, Wang Sufen called Fangnan and Mingbei to pick up firewood on the mountain, Liu Chunhua went back to the back room to paint, and waited until Zhen Zhen woke up in the second half of the afternoon. At that time, the whole family came back, and Liu Chunhua also finished painting the Kangqin.

    Once Mrs. Li heard it, she hurriedly got off the kang and wanted to go over to take a look, Ming Nan and Ming Bei also followed behind to watch the fun, even Zhen Zhen stretched out her small hand and pointed hard towards the back room, In her mouth, she said anxiously: "Go! Mom, go!" Upon seeing this, Mrs. Li couldn't help laughing: "My little granddaughter can't be left behind anywhere, she has to be involved in all the big and small things in the family."

    "Otherwise, she is smart, and children can see the old when they are young." Liu Chunhua then praised.

    Mrs. Li was a little worried when she heard about the old man, she glanced at Mingbei and sighed helplessly: "It's over, I also hope that Mingbei will grow with age. Think about it, so there is no hope?"

    Ming Bei walked ahead with a stick in his hand, knocking and poking in the east and the west from time to time and having fun, Mrs. Li looked at him and was worried, Zhen Zhen couldn't help but think A word: mentally handicapped children are much more joyful.

    Mingbei was having a good time, when she suddenly heard Mrs. Li say that he had no brains, and was immediately unhappy: "Mom, why do you sound like I'm stupid when you say that? "

    Ming Nan was immediately amused by the side: "That's not called like, milk means you are stupid!"

    Mingbei threw the stick on the ground and rushed towards Mingnan. Mingnan was as dexterous as a monkey, dodging left and right so that Mingbei couldn't catch it. Zhen Zhen watched the two older brothers jumping up and down, she couldn't help laughing, and Mrs. Li also laughed: "I thought my family was just a fool, but now it looks like it's the two of them."

    The family chatted and laughed and went to the house. There were eight peony paintings on the kang, four slender ones were hung on the cabinet door, and the square ones were inlaid on the bottom four on a small cabinet. A place for inlaid glass has already been left on the kangqin, and when the time comes, the painting will be pasted on the head and then the glass will be inlaid.

    Zhen Zhen peered out of Wang Sufen's arms to look at several paintings on the kang, and saw that each of the eight peony pictures was painted differently, and the four above were painted with strong colors. Full, with huge flowers, it has a rich and auspicious meaning at a glance. The next four paintings use the fine brushwork method, and the petals are layered with bright colors, which look lifelike.

    Mr. Li was full of praise when she saw Liu Chunhua's paintings, and pulled her to laugh until she could not close her mouth: "The kind of glass paintings I saw in the street on the kang piano are all It's not as good-looking as you, but your painting is so good, it's festive when you look at it."

    Zhen Zhen nodded in Wang Sufen's arms. Although she never learned painting in her last life, after all, she had lived in an era of rich spiritual food for more than 20 years, and she still had this basic aesthetic. From Zhen Zhen's point of view, Osmanthus her mother hasn't painted for so many years and she can still paint so well, if you put aside modern and proper painting everyone.

    Liu Chunhua was a little embarrassed to hear the praise from everyone: "I haven't touched the pen for so many years, and the painting is really unsatisfactory."

    Seeing Liu Chunhua's regretful expression, Wang Sufen couldn't help laughing and said, "My mother, I'm already very envious of painting like this. If you paint better, then I will specify I have to hide these paintings, and only hang them out during the festivals, and I definitely don’t want to set them on the kang qin.”

    Old Mrs. Li was instantly happy when she heard it: "Then you can't rob me, I will lock it in my box, and even you won't be able to see it."

    Liu Chunhua saw that the old Li family really liked the peony she painted, and no longer bothered about the quality of the painting, she smiled heartily: "Okay, as long as you don't dislike it. Then let this painting go. Let it hang to dry, and when I buy glass to set it up sooner, it won't look good if I save the dirty paper."

    Mr. Li nodded, and sent Li Muwu to measure the size early the next morning, and went to the street to buy glass. Li Muwu called the carpenter and the two of them tossed for about an hour, and finally the paintings were all inlaid.

    The kangqin was finished, Liu Chunhua also went home, and Osmanthus began to think about going to Bingcheng again. Mrs. Li took her to open a letter of introduction to the street, and then inquired about going to Bingcheng. As soon as Mingxi arrived home, he immediately sent Li Muwu to buy a train ticket. Before leaving, Osmanthus sewed the money and tickets given by Mrs. Li into her close-fitting clothes, for fear of losing it.

    The two got on the train, and after a few days of bumps, they arrived at the Bingcheng. After getting off the train, they found the staff at the train station in Mingxi to inquire about the direction to the Agricultural University. When the staff saw that they were from other places and were young, they kindly led them to the bus stop next to the train station and told them how to get on the bus and where to get off.

    Mingxi and Osmanthus thanked each other and looked curiously at the pedestrians and vehicles passing by, Osmanthus excitedly tugged at Mingxi's sleeve: "No wonder the provincial capital is good, We didn't see a single car at the end of the year in our family."

    While the two of them were talking, a trolleybus came. Mingxi pulled Osmanthus onto the train and bought a ticket. The two excitedly found a window seat and sat down. Osmanthus was next to the window. She opened her eyes wide to look at the house and the pedestrians that were quickly falling backwards. She couldn't help but exclaimed, "Last time my aunt didn't like to ride in our carriage when she returned to her hometown. It turns out that their tram is really comfortable. , sitting on top of it is not at all upsetting."

    Mingxi nodded: "We are in a forest area, there are not many households in total, even if there is a trolleybus, no one rides it. Today is Friday, and tomorrow brother will not have class, let's go together Go see Fourth Uncle, and bring him the bacon from the milk."

      As the tram went further and further, she twisted her hands together involuntarily, and asked Mingxi nervously, "Is it coming soon?"

    Mingxi stood up and glanced at the station name written on the carriage, and nodded: "The next station is."

    Although she knew she was about to arrive at the station, but hearing Mingxi's confirmation, Osmanthus still froze for a while.

    Soon, the Agricultural University arrived, and Mingxi got off the tram with his luggage. When he turned around, he saw Osmanthus still moving to the door step by step in the car. He immediately went up and grabbed her. Pulled down: "My sister and sister-in-law, why are you so slow, this tram is still waiting to go. If you don't get off again, how can I explain to my brother if the tram pulls you away?"

    Osmanthus' lips were a little pale, she smiled weakly, and looked at the agricultural college that was not far away and dared not move, Mingxi had walked ten meters, and when she looked back, she found that Osmanthus was still there She was standing on the ground, so she had to drag her luggage and come over and ask her, "Sister Osmanthus, what's wrong with you? It's getting late, we have to find my brother quickly, and we'll be blinded when we can't find anyone when it's dark."

    "Mingxi, I'm a little scared." Osmanthus looked at Mingxi helplessly, her lips trembling nervously.

    Mingxi scratched her head and looked at her with some confusion: "You come to see what my brother is afraid of? What did he say to you before he went to school? No, if he said anything about you The milk will definitely cut him."

      Osmanthus closed her eyes and calmed down for a while, then suddenly walked forward: "Let's go, hurry up!"

    Mingxi followed her inexplicably and muttered, "Why are you still babbling."

    Osmanthus strode to the door, and the staff inside the door came out and asked, "Girl, who are you looking for?"

    Osmanthus stroked her braids and showed a shy smile: "I'm looking for Li Mingdong, a student who just arrived this year, I'm his wife."

    "Li Mingdong? I know, his grades are good, and the teacher often praises him." The staff looked up and down at Osmanthus, and couldn't help but say, "So Li Mingdong is married to a wife."

    While speaking, Li Mingxi had already come over with his luggage, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, grinned and complained: "Sister Osmanthus, you're walking too fast, I'm carrying everything behind me. I can't keep up with you."

    The staff pointed to the west and asked Osmanthus: "This is?"

    "Oh, this is Li Mingdong's younger brother, his name is Li Mingxi." Osmanthus quickly explained, Mingxi put the luggage at his feet, took out the letter of introduction from his arms, the staff saw that the name was correct When they met, they led the two of them into the school.

    "It's also a coincidence that you came here. If you come two days earlier, you may not be able to meet." The staff smiled and said: "Their freshman students went to work on the farm at the beginning of the month, and only returned yesterday. When you get to the school, it is estimated that they are still in class at this point, you can wait for him downstairs over there, and the get out of class will be over in ten minutes."

    "Thank you, comrade." Osmanthus and Mingxi thanked them politely, and followed his instructions and walked all the way to the downstairs of the classroom. Mingxi put his luggage on the ground, sat down on the steps, and looked at everything on the university campus curiously.

    Osmanthus no longer studied after primary school. She has long been unfamiliar with the memory of the campus. Looking at the students who walk by with books from time to time, she can't help showing an envious look.

    "It's so nice here." Mingxi couldn't help but admire: "I heard that Bingcheng University of Technology is also good, I'll take time to see it this time, and I'll have to wait until I finish high school. Take the university entrance exam in Bingcheng."

    "bell bell bell..." Soon, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and Mingxi hurriedly stood up from the steps, put the luggage on the ground on his back, looked left and right, and dragged the osmanthus to the wait beside.

    The doors of the classrooms opened one by one, and the teachers and students came out of the classrooms in an orderly manner. Some students asked questions they didn’t understand next to the teacher, and some were in a row in twos and threes, and they were having a heated discussion. what.

    Mingxi stood on tiptoe, trying hard to find Mingdong from the crowd, Osmanthus bit her lip nervously. Suddenly a familiar figure came out of the classroom, it was Ming Dong who had been away from home for two months. I saw Mingdong walking with a book and talking about something, and three or four classmates next to him were looking at it, as if they were listening to his explanation.

    Osmanthus' eyes swept across Ming Dong's face and landed on the face of the girl behind. She was looking at Ming Dong's profile seriously, her eyes full of admiration. That look in Osmanthus is very familiar, exactly the same as when she looked at Mingdong.

    "Brother!" Mingxi, who was looking around, finally saw Mingdong. He was happy to carry his luggage and ran over. Mingdong heard a familiar voice and looked up subconsciously. Arriving at Mingxi, whose face was full of joy, he couldn't help but smacked him on the shoulder with a smile: "Why are you here?"

     

    Several classmates who discussed the issue with Mingdong just now also came over and asked, "Mingdong, your brother is here."

    "Yes!" Ming Dong smiled and waved to Osmanthus: "Osmanthus, come here."

    Seeing Mingdong's familiar smile and still affectionate address, Osmanthus's cold heart slowly eased, she walked over, her cheeks couldn't help but blushed a little: "Brother Mingdong ."

    "Is it tiring to go out so far for the first time?" Ming Dong took the small bag from Osmanthus, turned to Mingxi and said, "I will put the luggage in my dormitory first, and then Take you to the cafeteria for dinner."

    A boy standing beside Mingdong said with a smile: "What dormitory are you going back to? I'll take it back for you, hurry up and take your brother and sister to dinner, sitting so far away The train, but hungry enough."

    Standing behind Mingdong and watching them silently, the girl suddenly took a step forward, interjected with a smile and asked, "You guys are just careless, classmate Li Mingdong's younger brother is easy to accommodate, at night with you It's enough to live in the dormitory, you don't think where his sister is going to live?"

    Ming Dong was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, the girl smiled and said, "What else do you want, it's better to live in our dormitory, just as Qin Mingyue asked for leave to go home, let her live in Qin Mingyue's bed will do."

    "Then thank you, Meng Shuran." Ming Dong thanked politely: "I'll send the sweet-scented osmanthus to me after dinner, and I'll have to trouble you to come out and pick it up."

    "We're all classmates, so what are you doing politely?" Meng Shuran smiled sweetly: "By the way, you're not going to the cafeteria to eat, I just happen to be hungry, let's go together."

    It was almost time for dinner, Mingdong didn't think much about it, he brought Mingxi and Osmanthus to the cafeteria, first found a seat for Osmanthus to sit down, and then took Mingxi to call meal.

    During his college days, Mingdong received a monthly allowance of 35 yuan and food stamps. Although the food supply is still tight in various places, the Agricultural University has two farms of its own, which is completely sufficient. Self-sufficient, so the students eat fairly well.

    Following three full meals and dishes, Ming Dong and Ming Xi brought them over, Osmanthus shared the chopsticks with them, seeing that Meng Shuran hadn't come over, she quickly asked in a low voice: "Ming Brother, are you familiar with that girl?"

    "A class, said a few words, but she was very helpful." Ming Dong only thought that Osmanthus was afraid of going to the girls' dormitory, and comforted her: "It's okay, The eight people in their dormitory are all girls from our class, don't be afraid, they will take care of you."

    Osmanthus heard this number and couldn't help asking in surprise, "Are so many girls going to college now?"

      Osmanthus fragrans.

    Meng Shuran came over with a plate and a bowl of soup, just in time to see the scene of Mingdong putting meat on Osmanthus, and couldn't help but tentatively say: "Li Mingdong, you are so kind to your sister."

    Osmanthus eats a lot of meat at home, originally wanted to put the meat back, but after hearing Meng Shuran's words, she put the meat in her mouth generously, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Brother Mingdong has been nice to me."

    Listening to this, Meng Shuran felt that Osmanthus did not look like Li Mingdong's biological sister. Sitting opposite Osmanthus, while drinking the soup with a spoon, she carefully looked at Osmanthus' face: a traditional oval face, with big eyes, a nose and a mouth that was just right, her skin was not white, but she looked very energetic, especially when she looked at it. Ming Dongshi looked shy and timid, and even Meng Shuran couldn't help but feel a little itchy. Although he was a little unconvinced, Meng Shuran had to admit that this sweet-scented osmanthus was prettier than the average person.

     Holding the spoon and poking at the rice on the plate, Meng Shuran couldn't help but ask, "Why did you come to Bingcheng? Do you have anything to do? My family is from Bingcheng. I'm familiar with you for a few miles, so if you need help with anything, feel free to speak up, Li Mingdong and I are classmates, you're welcome."

    Ming Dong also raised his head and looked at them when he heard the words, and he felt a little strange in his heart. "It's not that my mother is going to hold a wedding event for my brother and Osmanthus at the end of the year. Our place is small, and the fabrics are not brightly colored, so my mother asked Osmanthus to come to Bingcheng to buy some wedding things. But Osmanthus was a girl who went out. My grandmother was not at ease, so she asked me to follow her, so that I could help with things."

    Although Mingdong knew about Mrs. Li's plan before, he was still a little stunned when he heard that he was buying things for marriage. Meng Shuran looked at Osmanthus with a pale face, trying to squeeze out an unnatural smile: "Do you have any other brothers?"

    "No!" Mingxi glanced at her in surprise: "It's not him Mingdong, I'm Mingxi, you know I don't have another brother just by the name." After speaking twice, he pointed at Meng Shuran and said to Ming Dong, "Brother, your classmate's question is really funny."

    Mingdong ignored Mingxi, but couldn't help but looked up at Osmanthus, who was staring nervously at Mingdong's reaction, and the two just looked at each other. Osmanthus blushed, revealing a shy smile, Mingdong suddenly panicked, not knowing what to do, he could only move his eyes at a loss.

    Mingxi didn't notice anything wrong, and added happily: "Mom has made the cabinet and the kang piano for you, Osmanthus her mother came to our house and painted eight pictures on your kang piano. Peony, don't mention how good it is. Osmanthus, when I get married in the future, can you ask my aunt to draw a kang qin for me too?"

    Osmanthus smiled, wrinkled her nose mischievously, with a hint of playfulness and cuteness on her face: "Let's wait until you find your daughter-in-law."

    Mingdong has not been at home much since he was in junior high school except for holidays, and during that brief time, Osmanthus has always been a smiling and gentle image in Mingdong's impression, just like a traditional woman, No mood swings could be seen.

    But Osmanthus' smile just now made Mingdong's self-righteousness a joke. Osmanthus's lively and pretty look instantly broke Mingdong's previous image of her.

    Ming Dong was a little stunned when he looked at Osmanthus, and then he realized that Osmanthus was just as energetic and energetic as today's girls.

    Looking at the actions of the two and what Li Mingxi said, Meng Shuran suddenly lost her appetite. Fortunately, she didn't eat much food, so she lowered her head and ate it. She stood up with a plate in her hand, and said in a lack of energy: "I'll go back to the dormitory first. When Osmanthus is going to go to sleep, you can ask someone to bring a message, and I'll come and pick her up."

    Ming Dong thanked, Osmanthus looked at the figure of Meng Shuran leaving, and lowered her eyes gently: "Brother Ming Dong, take us to see the fourth uncle tomorrow, you have to buy something when you have time. , Milk said to buy some fabrics, a thermos, a washbasin, etc."

      ." Gui Hua's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she stuffed the rice into her mouth bit by bit.

    After dinner, Mingdong sent Osmanthus to the girls' dormitory downstairs. Another girl in the same class happened to pass by. Mingdong hurriedly stopped her and asked her to help lead Osmanthus upstairs and take care of it at night. Osmanthus fragrans.

    Watching Osmanthus go upstairs, Li Mingdong remembered what Osmanthus said just now, and suddenly he didn't know what to do. Mingxi looked at Mingdong who scratched his hair from time to time, and couldn't help but bumped him with his arm : "What's wrong with you? Is your hair itchy?"

    "No!" Ming Dong led Ming Xi to the playground, holding the parallel bars in both hands, and one sat up straight. Mingxi pressed her chin on the parallel bars, and looked at Mingdong strangely: "Brother, what's wrong with you? You look a bit like Osmanthus. Before we came from home, she was like you. She was in a daze for a while and pulled her hair. ."

    "Mingxi, do you think I should marry Osmanthus?" This question has been held back in Mingdong's heart for a long time, but he has never understood, shouldn't the new marriage be based on love? Can an arranged marriage like theirs actually produce love? If he compromises with this kind of arranged marriage, does it mean that he is feudal and compromised? One question after another about love has plagued Mingdong since the beginning of the summer, leaving him full of confusion about his marriage and future family.

    Hearing Mingdong's question, Mingxi looked at him in disbelief: "Of course you have to marry, Osmanthus is your daughter-in-law, and she came back from a small lead to be your daughter-in-law."

    "This is an old-fashioned arranged marriage. Shouldn't young people like us pursue free love and get married independently?" ideas expressed.

    Mingxi was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but reply: "But having a higher education does not mean that you don't want your daughter-in-law at home. Brother, do you like other girls? Do you want to repent of your marriage with Osmanthus, and then pursue a free marriage?"

    "No!" Mingdong shook his head irritably: "I don't like other girls, I just don't understand what liking is, so I don't know if I should marry Osmanthus? "

    "Why is it so complicated to get married? What did you all study in college? Why is it so hard for you to fix your head?" Mingxi also jumped while holding on to the parallel bars. I went up and sat across from Mingdong: "Did this sweet-scented osmanthus come to our house as a child to be your daughter-in-law?"

    "Yes." Ming Dong remembered that Osmanthus had been doing housework in and out of his house these years, and his face was a little distressed.

    "Did Osmanthus do anything wrong?" Mingxi then asked.

    "No, she is a good girl." Mingdong replied.

    "Isn't it worth it." Mingxi slapped her hand: "Your daughter-in-law is a good girl, why don't you marry her? Just because she came back with milk, not by you? "

    It seems right to say so, Mingdong nodded hesitantly.

    "Do you have an opinion on milk?" Mingxi snorted, Mingdong shuddered, and immediately shook his head: "Don't talk nonsense, I have no problem with milk."

    Mingxi rolled her eyes at him: "I told you, our grandma is an old lady with bright eyes, she can never look at people wrong, you look at our mother, our third aunt, who said Don't let outsiders give thumbs up when you get up. The fourth uncle's house was chosen by him. You can see what it is. When I came home for the New Year last year, I almost got angry with my milk, so I kept my eyes on our cabinet. It's better to listen to the milk without stopping."

    "I don't think sweet-scented osmanthus is bad." Ming Dong sighed: "I just feel unwilling, I haven't experienced the uneasiness and sweetness of love, and I will step into a prepared marriage. You, are you willing?"

    Mingxi thought about it for a while, then nodded seriously: "I think it's pretty good, Sister Osmanthus is also good and beautiful, our family also likes her, so to say Osmanthus Sister is really good. Brother, if you really don’t want to marry, forget it. I’ll go home and tell my milk that I’m marrying Osmanthus. Anyway, the female junior holds Jinzhuan. I’ll have to look for it later. I don't want to help me paint the kang qin, but I can fix it, my old lady likes that peony."

    Mingdong couldn't help laughing, and kicked Mingxi off the parallel bars with one kick: "You marry Osmanthus for that kangqin?"

    "No, it's mainly because Sister Osmanthus is a good person, and the kangqin is suitable!"

    Ming Dong looked at Ming Xi who was striving to jump on the parallel bars, and couldn't help kicking him again, Ming Xi was not happy, glared at him and shouted: "You kick What am I doing? Why don't I marry Osmanthus?"

    "You marry a fart!" Mingdong blurted out subconsciously, Mingxi was unhappy now: "If you don't marry me, you won't let me marry, where do you want Osmanthus to go? Before milk said Osmanthus When I go back to my mother's house, I have no place to live, so I can only make do with one night in the kitchen, if no one in our family marry her, why would she stay in our house?"

    "It's not that I don't want to marry her." Mingdong felt his thoughts were even more confused: "I just think that marriage must be based on love."

    Mingxi was a little dizzy listening to these love, love, and he also followed Mingdong and scratched his hair: "Then you two fall in love, isn't the sweet-scented osmanthus here, hurry up to love, After the love is over, we will get married." Seeing Ming Dong's thoughtful appearance, Ming Xi wiped his sweat: "My mother, there are so many things about love, I will let my milk give me when I marry a daughter-in-law. I'm looking for one, and I'm not going to fix this useless."

    Mingxi's words were like a bright light, instantly dispelling the fog in Mingdong's heart.

    Mingdong seriously thought about Mingxi's suggestion, but he thought it was very feasible, he couldn't help grinning: "If I'm in love, what should I do first?" , Mingdong hurriedly made a quiet gesture: "Let me think about it, let me think about what the book says?"

    "Brother, what book are you reading?" Mingxi weakly grabbed Mingdong's hand and begged, "Please tell me!"

    Ming Dong threw an "I understand you" look, and said proudly: "Are you curious too? Do you want to know what love is about? But I think you should be early, at least Let's go to college."

    "No, I'm not curious at all!" Mingxi waved his hand: "I just want to know what book it is, and I'll be far away when I see it, it's all a broken book. All the good people are going crazy."
