Chapter 195 The father who sells his son and daughter Thirty-eight
When he saw face to face the face that he had memorized for eleven years, Han Wenqing couldn't help but trembled.
"Uncle...do you still remember me?"
Yunfei looked at him with some confusion, "Who are you?"
He looked at it carefully, and suddenly recalled that young man with a dirty face under the fire, who stubbornly knelt down in tears and kowtowed to him several times.
It was obviously winter, but he only had a pair of broken straw sandals under his feet, and his clothes were ragged and still summer clothes.
It was a poor young man who found it in the refugee camp in the town.
The boy and several younger brothers and sisters who were also homeless huddled in the corner of the Chenghuang Temple to sleep.
When he said he wanted to set a fire, the young man was tempted but resisted the high reward and refused. The young man said that they were poor, but they would not commit murder or arson.
It wasn't until Yunfei explained the reason to him that he solemnly agreed.
"It's you?"
Han Wenqing responded excitedly: "Yes... I still remember the strange tune that my uncle played back then."
"Ahem." Yunfei pretended to cough to cover up his embarrassment.
"If it weren't for the money you gave me back then, my brothers and sisters and I would have been a pile of bones by now."
After they left, news of floods and plagues came shortly after the apocalypse. People died every day and the death pits were filled.
Yao Qiyuan looked around and asked in confusion: "Dad, do you know Brother Wenqing?"
"Uncle, he is the benefactor of me and several siblings..."
In Han Wenqing's explanation, Yao Qiyuan understood the process of the two getting acquainted, but he was a little confused, "Dad, why are you burning up a brothel?"
He was too young at that time and could not remember that his sister had been sold.
Han Wenqing now also thought that the girl back then was probably the eldest daughter of Yao Zhi County today.
The fact that he had been sold to a brothel could not be spread even to death, so he and Yun Fei both tacitly kept silent.
The two people's attitudes made Yao Qiyue notice something different, so he stopped asking any more questions and instead talked about hosting a reception banquet for Han Wenqing in the evening.
That is, having a meal as a family.
………
Under the warm hospitality of Yunfei and Qin that night, Han Wenqing finally met the strange girl during the day.
She was still wearing men's clothes, with a long sword hanging on her waist.
Mrs. Qin was unable to accept it at the beginning, then acquiesced, and now she has become accustomed to it... she no longer has hope for her girl to be gentle and gentle.
It's just a matter of marriage...
"Tuan Tuan, yesterday your eldest sister-in-law came to tell you that the young master of the Zhang family in Fucheng..."
"What the hell! I suddenly remembered that we have to interrogate prisoners tonight. My father, mother, younger brother, Mr. Han... I'll excuse you now."
Yao Qiyue took a pancake and a chicken drumstick and ran away quickly.
"This child..." Ms. Qin felt helpless and angry.
"Okay, let her be! If you don't want to marry, you won't get married! Anyway, I have bought the house next to her for her. She can stay with us from now on. At least she doesn't have to worry about being bullied."
Mrs. Qin glared at her husband angrily, "Our girl can defeat ten strong men by herself, who dares to bully her?"
"Pfft...cough." Han Wenqing couldn't hold back his laughter, but he choked on his wine. He blushed and apologized, "Uncle and aunt, I'm sorry, I lost my temper."
"It's okay...blame me! I'm used to nagging."
"Mom, please stop forcing me, I will take care of her from now on!"
"You two, father and son, just spoil her! It's as if I'm the stepmother, and I'm not doing it for her own good." Ms. Qin was also worried that the gossip outside would hurt Yao Qiyue.
Otherwise, she would not want to force her daughter!
Although the people of Yuanding County admired Yao Qiyue very much, they never said anything bad about her.
But in the eyes of outsiders, an old girl who is not married at the age of seventeen must have some problems and will not be able to get married...
Han Wenqing, who heard that Yao Qiyue was not yet married, suddenly felt blushing for some reason.
………
Although I am a bit older...
But my uncle is fifteen years older than my aunt, so they have been close to each other all their lives! He is only older than the girl, she should be five or six years old...
When they first met, he was eleven years old, and the girl in his uncle's arms was about five or six years old.
If he were ten years ago, he would not dare to think about the daughter of the county magistrate's family.
But things are different now...
His younger brothers and sisters have grown up, started families and established careers, and he himself is already a scholar.
Just wait until the high school candidates are selected and then look at the rankings to see if they can get a full-time official position...
In the days that followed, he would always drag Yao Qiyuan out, and then meet Yao Qiyue by chance.
Sometimes she is on patrol, sometimes she is helping to mediate minor disputes between people, and sometimes she leads the police to catch criminals.
Whenever he learned that she had not returned home all night, he tossed and turned with worry.
Han Wenqing knew that he was completely screwed...
For the first time in his twenty-two years of life, he was worried about a girl.
It was true that his younger brothers and sisters had fallen in love with him. There were farmers' daughters, daughters of scholars, and daughters of merchants...but he was not moved by any of them.
I simply declined them all because I prioritized my studies.
But when he saw her on the street that day, the sharpness in her eyebrows and eyes immediately caught his heart and eyes.
………
In the blink of an eye, it’s early June again.
It's time for Yao Qiyuan to leave for Beijing to take the exam.
The night before the trip, Han Wenqing held a brocade box in his hand and mustered up the courage to knock on Yao Qiyue's door.
Squeak~
When the door opened, Yao Qiyue said in surprise: "Hey, Black Sesame, why are you here so late?"
Han Wenqing blushed when he heard this nickname. Although others thought it sounded unpleasant, he thought it was special.
"Young man is so polite!"
"Don't try this trick. Don't I know who you are?"
"Then I'll tell you the truth! Yao Qiyue, I like you very much. When I finish high school, I will propose marriage to your family. Are you willing to wait for me?"
Yao Qiyue raised her eyebrows and said, "What if I don't want to?"
"It doesn't matter, then I'll wait until you are willing. It doesn't matter for a few years, or for decades."
"Doesn't it matter if you don't get married for the rest of your life?"
"It doesn't matter. I'll draw the portrait and you catch the criminal! We will be partners for life."
"Tell me first! Mr. Zhao from the house at the end of the street took a detour when he saw me. Is it you who did it?"
Han Wenqing bowed his head in embarrassment and admitted, "Yes..."
"Where is the young master of Wu Xiucai's family?"
"Too……"
"The eldest young master of the Zhang family?"
"still……"
"You can do it! You have lived in my house for more than two months and you have cut off so many peach blossoms for me. If you let my mother know, she will probably be mad to death."
"Neither of them is a good match."
"Then who is?"
Han Wenqing straightened his back, bowed his hands and said seriously: "I am only twenty-two years old. I have no high hall at home, no wives and concubines, no common room, no flowers or willows, and no bad habits.
The younger siblings have already started their own families, with three shops and fifty acres of fertile land to their names...
If you have a thousand taels of money saved, your wife will take care of all your wishes after marriage. She will listen to you outside and at home. You will listen to you in big matters and in small matters... A son-in-law who comes to your house is also acceptable.
I am willing to swear a poisonous oath and establish a written document! I will only marry one person in this life!"
There is another update in the early morning. Let’s watch it tomorrow morning! Thank you for your support▄██●
