He opened his mouth to chase people away again. Feelings: Aunt Meng is quite satisfied with the marriage?
Hua Xiaogu suddenly felt something was wrong and walked slowly out the door. Before leaving, he glanced at Aunt Meng one more time.
Aunt Meng's eyes were really flashing with joy on her face...
Seeing Hua Xiaogu leave the room, the two women inside the door began to murmur together again.
"Oh, that's great! In that kind of family, a servant's life is better than that of our ordinary family, and they are served in front of nobles. If they divide the courtyard at the back, they might even be able to get a shopkeeper.
!”
"That's right! So, it's because the head of the Hua family did a lot of good things during his lifetime and accumulated a lot of virtue for that girl Xiaogu! This matter is just a matter of people asking about it. Just by asking about it, I have at least a three-point certainty.
Hurry up and bring Xiao Gu’s birthday!”
"Okay, I'll write it down for you now!"
Hearing the sound outside the door, it seemed as if Aunt Meng suddenly stood up, as if she was about to come out to find paper and pen. Hua Xiaogu jumped up quickly and scurried to the corner of the room to hide.
Sure enough, after a while, Aunt Meng went out and walked to the small house where she usually wrote wine making recipes.
Hua Xiaogu bit her lower lip and felt her heart pounding. She turned around and walked to her bedroom. Once she entered, she closed the door.
Her feet felt weak and she sat on the edge of the bed, looking out the window expressionlessly.
I have always been forced to get married, but this is the first time I have to face the truth. Do I really want to put on a red dress and marry someone I have never met before?
Judging from Aunt Meng's appearance, this family may not be bad. From now on, she will be locked up in the back house, without leaving the house, and become a tool for others to have children...
Thinking of this, Hua Xiaogu shivered all over.
She doesn't want it!
She still has a lot of wine to drink, and many famous mountains and rivers she has not seen yet. If she marries a man she has never met so early and is locked up in the back house for the rest of her life, she might as well...
Might as well...
Might as well run away!
Hua Xiaogu gritted her teeth, and she became more and more determined. The worst she could do was not marry for the rest of her life, pretend to be a man, go to the Tianjia wine cellar to experience things, and then be a winemaker for the rest of her life...
After all, there is still freedom, right?
This idea fell on Hua Xiaogu's mind, and she quietly began to plan.
Aunt Meng sent Granny Zhang away, and when she came back she couldn't sit still. She called Hua Xiaogu in front of her, and looked left and right. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
"We Xiaogu are so lucky!"
Hua Xiaogu had a black line on his head, but he pretended not to know: "What kind of blessing?"
Aunt Meng covered her mouth and smiled: "Nothing, just go and do your business."
Hua Xiaogu pretended to be dumbfounded, said "oh" and left.
These days, on the surface, Hua Xiaogu continues to be fed like a piglet by Aunt Meng, but secretly, she starts to pack her things.
I transcribed the brewing recipes that I had recorded in the past few years one by one, filling two volumes. I also exchanged the money I saved for small denominations of banknotes, secretly sealed them in my clothes, and then put away my few men's clothes.
Washed them one by one and put them in small packages.
At midnight that day, Aunt Meng made Hua Xiaogu a meal of bone soup, watched her drink two large bowls, then told her a few more words and went home.
Hua Xiaogu burped several times, then secretly took away his small baggage, then changed into men's clothes, put a few taels of silver in his pocket, wrote a letter and left it on the table.
She stood at the door of the courtyard, looked at the small courtyard where she had lived for several years, kowtowed to the west a few times, and said hello to the Hua family, and then walked down to the county.
