pastoral fragrance

Chapter 287
After Qiulin and Xiayan got home, they were going to wash lotus roots and fish scales together.The visitor was a guest, Qiuyue rushed Xia Yan to the main room first, and hurriedly said: "Doctor Xia, you can just sit here, let us do these things, you are a guest! Where is the reason why the host sits while the guest comes to do it?"

Seeing this, Xia Yan smiled slightly and had no choice but to compromise.Today happened to be the day when the school had a rest, and Qiu He was at home at the moment.He is holding a book and studying hard.Qiu He failed in the Juren examination twice, so he decided to study hard. If he fails to pass the Juren examination this time, he will stop studying.If he fails the exam three times, it can only show that he is not a material for studying, but it is refreshing to be honest and farm at home.

Seeing that Qiu He was also at home, Xia Yan took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Qiu He. "Brother Qiuhe, you are the only one in the family who has studied, so you can sign this contract for Second Uncle Xu."

Qiu He was a little confused, took the piece of paper over, read it several times, and opened his mouth into the shape of "oh". "Brother Xia Yan, this..." Qiu He was really surprised by the above content. If someone wanted to buy their family's Chinese herbal medicine, he would accept all the orders.This price is not a scam! "Could it be that Brother Xia Yan is not in Luoshui Village these days, just because of this thing?"

"What is this?" Xu Nanshan on the side also pushed the wheelchair over, looking at the black and white words on it, Xu Nanshan couldn't read a single word, so he had to ask Qiu He.

Qiu He sucked her lips, with a shocked expression on her face, and told her father the contents of the contract in a daze.

Xu Nanshan was overjoyed when he heard the words, which means that their herbal medicines don't have to worry about not being sold. How can this not make him happy?In addition to being overjoyed, Xu Nanshan quickly pushed the wheelchair by himself, and told the good news to Mrs. Han and Qiuyue.Several people cheered and carried themselves away with joy.

Qiu Lin sat in the stove and lit the fire, listening to the endless laughter that filled the room, he was very satisfied.Thinking of Xia Yan made my heart a little sweeter.

In the main room, Qiu He gradually calmed down from the joy and shock.He fixed his eyes on the slightly tired young man in front of him, and he was already convinced by him in his heart.Xia Yan worked so hard to get this contract, it is obvious that he really likes the little girl to the bone.Qiu He saw that everyone had gathered in the kitchen, cleared his throat, and said to Xia Yan straight to the point: "Brother Xia Yan, I know you like my little sister, judging from the current situation, you like it more than just a little bit." .”

Xia Yan was surprised by Qiu He's straightforwardness, but soon calmed down again.Smiling and nodding, he already liked Qiulin, so why hide it.

Seeing Xia Yan nodding, Qiu He felt relieved, and said with a big brother's attitude: "I can also see that my younger sister has deep affection for you. If this is the case, I hope you will come to propose marriage as soon as possible, and my younger sister will soon turn fourteen." It is." These words are not only a reminder to Xia Yan, but also a wake-up call.The younger sister is not too young, and a few days ago, a matchmaker came to propose marriage, but she was sent away by the elder sister.

When proposing marriage, Xia Yan raised his eyes and stared straight at Qiuhe whose mouth was opening and closing, feeling a rush in his heart.That's right, Qiulin is already thirteen, and it will be fourteen after the new year. Why didn't he think of coming to propose marriage!Now I have to ask Qiu He to wake me up, Xia Yan secretly scolded himself for his elm head!Xia Yan swore to Qiu He, "Don't worry, I will come to propose marriage soon!" At that moment, Xia Yan's heart couldn't be calmed down for a long time, and he was a little carried away with joy.

When eating, his gentle eyes frequently cast Qiulin, which made Qiulin unable to eat well.Hey, why is your head twitching, why do you just look at yourself, and let people have a good time eating!

That night, when everyone was chatting together after dinner, when they were only talking about miscellaneous things, someone started talking about Qiu Lin and Xia Yan's marriage, and everyone's attention was diverted. Here it comes.At this moment, Qiu Lin was not at home, she was sending Xia Yan, who was full of food and drink, to the gate of the courtyard.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the two were reluctant to leave, so they began to talk.In the dark autumn night, the wind blows on the face and it feels a little chilly, but the crescent moon above the head is bright, so there is no need to illuminate the lantern.Under the infiltration of the moonlight, Qiu Lin's eyes were glued to Xia Yan's body.The contours of his face appeared soft in the moonlight, and his eyes were even more gentle and watery, full of affection. Qiulin looked at him a little dumbfounded, and was reluctant to let him go.

At the moment Xia Yan is also looking at Qiu Lin with a sticky face, only to see that her small face is as bright as white jade in the moonlight, with crescent moon eyes, slender and delicate nose, and her cheeks are slapped. Like rouge, there was an intoxicating blush, and that pink and tender lips were more like a seductive cherry waiting to be picked.In the past and the moon, the hearts of the two are very close.The moonlight was lingering, and the affectionate gazes of the two met from time to time, causing their hearts to throb.

The two of them were spending time together, and the discussion among the people in the hall was in full swing.Qiuyue said to find someone to beat Xia Yan, Qiu He said that he had already taken the opportunity to beat Xia Yan just now, and said that Xia Yan would come to propose marriage in a few days.As soon as these words came out, there was another burst of joy in the room.Evidently pleased with the marriage.

"However, I think it's better to ask the younger sister about this matter." Although everyone thinks that the younger sister also has intentions for Xia Yan, it's just that this is a major marriage matter after all. peace of mind.

After hearing this, everyone nodded. After all, the younger sister is the person involved, and this matter is related to her marriage. Naturally, the younger sister's nod must be obtained before it can be done!Otherwise, they are so eager to encourage people to come to propose marriage, but the younger sister refuses to agree, isn't this a loss of face?

On the second day, Qiulin followed Mrs. Han to the vegetable garden to pull garlic sprouts, preparing to cook lean pork with garlic sprouts.This fried garlic tastes very fragrant, and everyone in Qiulin's family likes to eat this dish.

Qiulin pinched the stem of the garlic seedlings, pulled the garlic seedlings up from the soil, shook the mud on the roots of the garlic seedlings, and held them in his hands.Han looked at her little daughter who was as hardworking as a bee, with a faint smile on her lips.Thinking of everyone's discussion in the main room yesterday, Han's heart moved. She dragged Qiulin alone at this moment to ask her what she thought about this marriage.

Han looked at Qiu Lin who was wandering around in the vegetable garden, and sighed: "Before you know it, all of you children have grown up." She was about to be engaged in a blink of an eye, which made her a mother very upset. reluctant.

Qiulin raised her head, looked at Han's face and sighed, she didn't understand, and smiled, "Mother, no matter how old we are, we are also parents' children, right!" For no reason, why would mother sigh like this?

Hearing what Qiulin said, Mrs. Han was relieved. "Well, Si'er, your eldest sister's marriage is scheduled to be in the next year, and your second brother also married a wife. As for you, you are now 13 years old. Mother is thinking that it is time to find a marriage for you. Mother, look Dr. Xia is good, he is polite and considerate to others, and he cares about you very much. How do you feel about yourself?" Han Shi just got straight to the point with Qiu Lin, and those who are twisted and twisted don't have to wave in front of her daughter. shaking.

At this moment, Qiulin suddenly realized, no wonder Mother asked her to come over to help her pull the garlic sprouts alone, she just wanted to take this opportunity to tell her what was on her mind.

At this time, Qiulin remembered that this is ancient times, where is it allowed to fall in love freely?Now that she is getting so close to Xia Yan without avoiding suspicion, if she is not sure about getting married, she will definitely be called a flirt.That's why my mother said that.

In fact, she was much luckier than other women.The other girls went on blind dates, and they only met two or three times, and they didn't know each other very well, so they had to make a marriage agreement.My cousin, Qiuhuai, has never met the master Juren, but the matchmaker said that the parents' order comes first, so she just married?She and Xia Yan have known each other for more than five years, and the time they spent with him is not short, and they also understand each other somewhat.In comparison, isn't she much luckier?

Furthermore, she did have feelings for Xia Yan.She is attached to him and believes in him, and likes the feeling of freedom and leisure when she is with him.He also likes that he dotes on her and loves her... At this moment, Xia Yan's figure flashed in Qiu Lin's mind, and the sweet and shy feeling in his heart could not be dispelled for a long time.When she came to her senses, she found that Mrs. Han was looking at her expectantly, uh, mother is still waiting for her answer!
Qiulin swallowed, trying to calm down his surging mood.Not being hypocritical now, she nodded shyly. "Okay, but it's up to the parents." In fact, it's not that Qiu Lin never thought about developing freely with Xia Yan, but real life absolutely doesn't allow it, unless she doesn't care about her own reputation.Relatively, after the two set up a marriage, they will not be criticized for interacting with each other.In this way, setting up a marriage is equivalent to an umbrella.

After hearing this, Mrs. Han couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear.Xia Yan is her favorite son-in-law, everyone in the family is full of praise for him, now even Qiu Lin himself nods in agreement, why is Han unhappy?Now she is thinking in her heart that she is waiting for Xia Yan to find a matchmaker to come to propose marriage.

Ever since Mrs. Han mentioned this matter, all Qiu Lin thought about was engagement.She and Xia Yan have known each other for more than five years. During these five years, whenever something happened to her, he would stand by her and protect her from harm.Thinking of these bits and pieces of the past, a deep feeling rose in Qiulin's heart.It made her heart feel like it was tightly wrapped in honey, so sweet that it couldn't melt.
