Chapter 114 Shanzi, Thank You
Sun Shan and his friends were laughing, which attracted the little girl outside the window to look over curiously. The elder sister of the He family saw the little brats and shouted angrily, "What are you guys doing?"
The three He brothers fled in all directions, while Sun Shan and De Ge'er were unable to react and stood there in a daze. They had never done these things before and had no experience, but it seemed that the three He brothers had done them often and were very responsive.
The girl in the small garden asked, "Boy, did your family tell you not to peek?"
After saying this, he covered his mouth and laughed, and the other girls also laughed.
Sun Shan and De Ge'er were still young, so even if they peeked, they would just be accused of being naughty and would not be blamed.
It was the first time that De Geer saw so many beautiful sisters. He was very nervous and stuttered, "I came here to see my future cousin's wife, not to peek intentionally."
Sun Shan was speechless and wanted to cover De Ge'er's mouth. He talked too much and made too many mistakes.
When the girls in the He family heard about the future cousin-in-law, they understood that He Shuhan and the others were here just now, and they must have come to see He Shujin's fiancée. They looked at the girl in yellow and joked, "Mengyao, your cousins are here to see you."
Suddenly, the small garden burst into laughter. Liang Mengyao's fair face instantly turned red, and she was at a loss.
Seeing this, Sun Shan had to leave quickly, otherwise the little girl would not dare to look up. He performed a scholar's salute and said seriously, "Excuse me, sisters. We heard that our future cousin's wife is virtuous, beautiful and intelligent, so we were very curious and came to see her. Sure enough, after seeing her, she is just as the legend said. It's not surprising that my cousin kept praising her."
My dear cousin, my cousin is very loyal. Girls all like to be praised by their future husbands, and my cousin is really worried about you.
De Ge'er also helped out, but he was short of words and could only say, "It's beautiful, so handsome, my cousin likes it very much."
After the two of them finished talking, they immediately fled in panic. If they didn't leave now, they would really be unable to leave.
When the girls in the small garden heard what Sun Shan and the others said, they laughed even louder and teased Liang Mengyao. Especially the older sisters in the He family, they not only praised Liang Mengyao, but also praised He Shujin for his good looks and gentlemanly manner.
Liang Mengyao couldn't raise her head this time. She was thinking, was what the two boys said just now true or false? Did He Shujin really praise her so much? Then she also thought that it was He Shujin who said it. After all, how could a child lie?
Sun Shan and De Ge'er quickly left the backyard and walked back to the front yard. They saw their three cousins laughing and were very angry.
De Geer said angrily: "Cousin, you are so mean. You left me and Shanzi alone."
He Shusheng touched his head and said embarrassedly: "I don't know why you two didn't run away. Hey, in this kind of situation, you should run away immediately."
He Shuhan and He Shuyao chimed in, saying that no matter how wrong the heaven and the earth were, it couldn't be that the three He brothers were wrong, so they put all the blame on Sun Shan and De Ge'er.
Sun Shan didn't bother with them and decided not to go anywhere, staying in the outer courtyard to eat snacks.
De Ge'er forgot the pain after his wound healed and wanted to go out with the three He brothers again. Sun Shan stopped him and warned him that if anything happened and he lost face for his aunt, he would not have the opportunity to work in the capital and would not be able to enjoy the good life like Ming Ge'er.
For the sake of his future, De Ge'er endured the humiliation and sat obediently on the stool, eating melon seeds, peanuts and candies with Sun Shan.
He Shuyu was busy running around, and when guests arrived, he would invite them in to sit down.
On the contrary, the male protagonist He Shujin was the most idle, following his father to greet guests at the door. Whoever came was pulled over by his father, waiting for the guests' praise. He Shujin was a puppet the whole time, doing whatever his father asked him to do.
When most of the guests arrived, He's father said a few words to thank them for coming and asked them to eat more, drink more and not leave until they were drunk.
The banquet lasted from noon to evening and ended after two meals.
I heard that someone is giving out steamed cakes under the memorial archway in Hejia Village. They give one to anyone who asks for it. It’s okay to queue up. Just say a word of congratulations. The He family is very happy.
The village chief and Sun Bomin touched their round bellies, and the village chief said contentedly, "This is still a delicious meal, much better than the seafood dinner last night."
Sun Bomin nodded quickly: "The roast goose and white-cut chicken made by the city people are delicious, the meat is fat and juicy, hey, I have never eaten such delicious meat."
The village chief and Sun Bomin agreed with each other, and they couldn't find anyone else to agree with them. In Hejia Village, I didn't know many people.
He Wenshu and Li Yang also came to the dinner in the evening. Sun Shan looked over and saw that the two father and son were short and thin, and looked exactly the same. No wonder they liked Bao Ge'er so much, with a chubby figure, which they could never hope for.
After dinner, we prepared to leave.
Aunt Sun came over and said a few words, then left. It seemed that she was very busy.
Sun Shan secretly ran to the inner courtyard to ask his elder sister Guyu. She lowered her head and his expression could not be seen clearly. Anyway, they had met each other today, and the man and woman had met each other. As for the result, he would wait for Aunt Sun to report it.
Sun Shan didn't know who the man was, and he didn't dare to go looking for him out of curiosity. Everything was done in secret.
After the party, the host gave me a small gift, which contained steamed cakes and candies. The children also received a red envelope. 10 wen, not too much, not too little. De Geer was very happy and kept saying that he was lucky to come to the city with me and get a lot.
He's father originally wanted to host a banquet for three days and three nights, but after much persuasion from He Shujin, it was shortened to one day. However, the He family will distribute steamed cakes for three consecutive days. Those who want them can go directly to the archway of Hejia Village to queue up to get them.
Many elderly people, whether from this village or other villages, brought their children to receive the gifts. No matter whether they tasted good or not, the main thing was that they had good intentions. Steamed cakes and high school entrance exams, who wouldn’t want them?
The village chief and Sun Bomin led Sun Shan and others back to the house. Everyone was very excited. The village chief said with a beaming face, "It's so lively today. Our brother Jing is so handsome. No wonder so many people like him."
Sun Bomin also thought so and said cheerfully, "Uncle He is so happy. He has been busy all day and his face is stiff from smiling."
The village chief said hurriedly: "Who wouldn't be happy? If it were me, I would be smiling from head to toe of the village."
Sun Shan and De Ge'er were eating the candies they brought back from the banquet. For some reason, the more they ate, the more they wanted to eat.
After taking a shower, Sun Shan quietly approached Gu Yu and asked, "Sister, how was the meeting today?"
Guyu's face turned red, and she lowered her head and said nothing.
Sun Shan asked anxiously: "Sister, if you don't like it, you can tell me. You have to find a life that you can live."
As for free love, that is a luxury and out of reach, and Sun Shan will not encourage it.
Guyu shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just took a few glances and didn't feel anything."
Sun Shan understood that the other party was definitely not a handsome guy, and he could not tell any feelings from him after just a few glances.
Sun Shan held Gu Yu's hand and said seriously, "Sister, no matter what, your opinion is important. I will always support you."
Guyu's eyes were red, and she touched Sun Shan's little head: "Shanzi, thank you."
