Mountain People

Because Gu Shuixiu took the initiative to talk to her, the little girl was so excited that she was speechless and stammered, "I...my name is Gu Min."

After Gu Min finished speaking, she couldn't contain the excitement on her face, and after a while, she gathered up her courage and said, "Sister Shuixiu, my grandfather said that you are the most promising and knowledgeable person in our village. Man, can you tell me what's going on outside?"

Gu Shuixiu gave Gu Min a surprised look. She was wearing a blue and white porcelain-colored cloth and linen skirt, but she was clean and tidy, her hair was neatly combed, and there was a wooden hairpin on it. There are no decorations, it looks dull, but it is comfortable.

The most important thing is that the life of the village chief is not difficult in the village. Girls from other families can use ordinary rouge gouache, but Gu Shuixiu does not smell any grease powder on Gu Min's body. Taste, it seems that this girl is also a real one.

Thinking like this, Gu Shuixiu had a good first impression of Gu Min, so she said kindly: "What do you want to know about the outside? You should have been to Panlong Town too. Compared to Panlong Town, it’s just bigger and more lively, there are things outside, and we also have them in our town, so it’s not surprising.”

Gu Min asked inexplicably: "But if there is nothing unusual outside, why does my father always ask my brother to work hard to earn money, let my little nephew study, and go out like a big brother Erniu in the future Grass Seed Village?"

This Gu Min looks like a little girl who is not deep in the world, and has always grown up in Caozi Village, she has no knowledge, and is full of curiosity about everything outside.

Gu Shuixiu thought for a while, then chuckled, "Do you want to live outside?"

Gu Min nodded, then shook her head again, and after thinking for a long time, said paradoxically: "I'm just curious, and I don't have anything to think about. Listen to my mother, it's not that our village didn't think about it before. The girls who are going to marry outside the village, but the people who get married have never seen them come back all year round.

, I really don't know what they are drawing.

My mother said that the girl who married in our village had the best life with Sister Shuixiu. From before to now, no married girl can help her husband's family like this. I can still make my husband's family have no opinion. I really admire it. Sister Shuixiu is now the goal of the village girls to learn.

My mother often said that if I could be as powerful as Sister Shui Xiu, she would wake up laughing from a dream, I think she was just dreaming, or just a daydream, if I really looked like Sister Shui Xiu It's so powerful, you don't have to toss it out and you haven't married yet..."

Gu Min opened the chatterbox, and she became a lot more lively. From her rambled words, Gu Shuixiu heard a lot of information, but she didn't expect that she has become the idol of the village girl now, and she still I remember, those people in the village used to compare her to Gu Zhuzhu. When talking about Gu Zhuzhu, which one is not envious, jealous, and hateful, when they talk about her, they are very sympathetic. Now, how many people in the village remember Gu Zhuzhu? To even have her daughter at home to study with her, it really is a moment and a moment! this is the truth.

However, Gu Min's temperament is quite steady, not because her mother has been thinking about it, her heart floats, and her determination is good.

"What do you mean when you said you haven't been married yet? Don't we hear a lot of girls in our village who are not married at the age of sixteen? Is sixteen very old?" Gu Shuixiu was a little puzzled , There was no way for her to get married so early. If her family's conditions allowed it at that time, maybe Gu Mingde would keep her until she was eighteen.

Take care of Gu Min's situation, she should be very favored at home, so there is such a feeling?

Gu Min sighed and explained dejectedly: "Sister Shuixiu doesn't know! The situation in our family is a bit different." Fugui, look at the gate again, and see no one eavesdropping, so he carefully lowered his voice and said, "Sister Shuixiu, let me tell you, don't tell anyone, my grandfather said that the position of the village head of our family is not It came out of thin air.

If the successor village head is capable, that's fine, if the successor village head is not capable, the best way is to marry, marry the junior to a good family, or marry someone from another village The village chief's house, in short, is to ensure the location of our home as much as possible.

In the beginning... When your family got up, my grandfather sighed that he was the village head of our family. up.

Only my uncle and second uncle, and my father, are not expected to be the village chief. This is what my grandfather said. Out of desperation, grandpa can only let the children of our generation marry , My sisters and cousins ​​are either married to the village chief's house in the nearby village, or to a well-to-do family in the town. As for the brothers, they were almost the ones who got married.

It's just that our village is poor, and those sisters who marry into the town will cry when they come back, saying that they have no status at home, and that they are looked down upon by their in-laws, although our family looks good in the village, But the inner suffering, only we know it.

The kind that can breathe for a long time after saying a word, if I get married, there is something wrong with that person, and my life will be ruined!

But grandpa said, that kind of people are hard to find, it is my blessing to be able to marry in, the ghosts want this kind of blessing! That time, I made a fuss for a long time, but my grandfather didn't let go. God was taking care of me. Before the decision was made, the man caught a cold, so he went like this.

Because I didn't make a decision, I didn't change the Geng post, and the family didn't have anything to say. , but grandpa felt bad about it, so he specially packed a bag of money over there.

Because of this matter, my grandfather sighed and sighed for a long time, but I was relieved. Later, my grandfather looked at two families again, either this problem or that problem, and now my marriage It wasn't settled either.

Grandpa said that the marriage of our children went smoothly, how come it was so rough here, I don't know why it happened..."

Gu Min's mood seemed a little low, and it was estimated that no one could say these words at ordinary times. .
