Xu Meijin's crying could be heard intermittently from the house. I frowned and walked up to knock on their door: "Auntie! No matter whether Daya and I are good or not, you can't let her get married now.
She doesn’t even know that Chen Wei! Who can guarantee that Chen Wei will be good to Da Ya!!!”
No one answered me inside, so I knocked harder and harder: "Uncle! You don't want Da Ya to suffer when she gets married! You can't marry Da Ya just for some money!"
There was silence inside, and I was about to raise my hand to knock on the door again, but Yanhong suddenly opened the door and stared at me: "Jiaolong! Are you finished yet?"
I was stunned for a moment, then opened my mouth and said: "Auntie, it's not that I have endless things to do, it's that Da Ya is not suitable for marriage now. She is only twenty years old and is not yet the legal age for marriage."
"What's illegal is illegal!" Yanhong looked angry and pointed at me: "Let me tell you, Ma Jiaolong, what I didn't say was too ugly. I was doing it to save face for your grandma. You know, you go out and ask around."
, which girl is still staying at home in her twenties, what kind of job are you looking for? If you don’t want Daya to get married, okay, you can come up with 30,000 yuan, my girl will give it to you, you
Is it okay to get married!!!"
I was stunned and looked at Yanhong: "Auntie, how could you say that? How could I marry Da Ya?"
"Isn't that enough! Why are you still here fooling around! Parents order the matchmaker! Since ancient times, this girl has to obey her parents when she gets married. If you can't help, then go home quickly. Our family matters are yours
Stop mixing it up!" After saying that, Yanhong slammed the door.
I'm a little angry. Are you Wang Yanhong Xu Meijin's mother to repay your parents' orders? If Chen Wei is interested in your Xu Linlin, will you still be so eager to get the girl married?
Just as I was about to continue raising my hand, I heard Xu Meijin calling me from the window of her room: "Jiaolong, Jiaolong!"
I responded and ran to the window in two steps. Looking at Xu Meijin who was crying with tears on his face, I felt uncomfortable: "Da Ya, don't worry, I will definitely not let your parents marry you to that man."
Chen Wei’s.”
Xu Meijin looked at me and shook his head: "It's useless, Jiaolong, they have already made up their mind. They just chose the money given by Chen Wei. Linlin borrowed all the money to go to college.
There are still people coming to my door these days to urge my dad to pay back the money. I think I must get married this time..."
I felt blocked in my heart. I looked at Xu Meijin and lowered my voice: "Da Ya, why don't you run away and go to the city. I'm rich and I'll ask my dad to find a job for you in the county."
, In this way, your father will not be able to marry even if he wants you to. "
Xu Meijin's eyes suddenly became complicated, and she looked straight at me while shedding tears. Looking at me, she felt panicked: "Da Ya, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? If so, I'll go back and help you now."
You take the money."
"Jiaolong." She called my name softly, wiped the tears on her face, and sniffed: "Are you particularly disgusted by others saying that we are gay?"
I was a little dazed, "I, I'm not... why are you talking about this now? They are just talking nonsense. How can we be gay? You listen to me. I will come to you tonight, and then you can run away secretly."
Come out."
Xu Meijin took a deep breath and shook her head: "I'm not going to the city. What can I do if I go to the city alone? Unless, unless you go with me, I won't leave."
"Jiaolong! What are you doing there! You're back from the mountain!!" Grandpa suddenly called me from behind. I turned around and responded, then looked at Xu Meijin: "I can't go to the city with you.
Yes, I can't let my grandpa be here by himself. You listen to me and go to the city to stay for a while until this matter is over before you come back."
Xu Meijin still shook his head: "You don't know, even if I go to the county seat, Chen Wei will not let my family go like this. Jiaolong, if you come with me, then I will leave, otherwise, I will leave
What’s the point!”
I found that I couldn't explain to her. This was her whole life. Why did she have to leave with me? I was a little anxious: "Then if you don't leave, you really have to marry that Chen Wei, Da Ya, you
Don’t worry, I’m still here. If Chen Wei dares to do anything to your family, I will call the police. You pretend to listen to your family first, and I will come to see you in the evening. Just wait for me.”
"Da Ya! What are you two talking about! How dare you lock the door!!" Just as she was talking, Yan Hong ran to Xu Meijin's house, pulled her back, and closed the window.
I looked at Xu Meijin's face, mouthed to her, and asked her to wait for me in the evening, then turned around and ran directly to the door.
Grandpa looked at me at the door of Xu Meijin’s yard with a confused look on his face: “Jiaolong, who are you talking to when you lift the window sill?”
"Da Ya." I responded and looked at my grandfather: "Aunt Yanhong wants to marry Da Ya to the nephew of the third cripple's sister-in-law."
"Ah?" Grandpa was stunned for a moment: "It's the stick man from the neighboring village. Isn't he a bastard? Isn't this nonsense?"
I nodded, with a depressed look on my face: "Yes, but I see that uncle and aunt Yanhong both want Da Ya to marry her. They say that Chen Wei has fallen in love with her and they will get married next month. They will give her 30,000 yuan."
Yuan and three gold."
Grandpa snorted and nodded: "Then I understand, it's all about money, but let alone 30,000, even 300,000, we can't let Da Ya give it to such a person, that's the prison."
Sooner or later." As he said that, my grandfather stopped and said, "No, I have to talk to Gangzi and Yanhong, isn't this going to ruin Da Ya's life?"
"Grandpa." I stretched out my hand and grabbed Grandpa's arm: "It's useless for us to say it. It's not like you don't know what Aunt Yanhong is like. She doesn't regard Daya as her own daughter at all. I have other things."
Method."
Grandpa frowned and looked at me: "What are you trying to do?"
"Let's go home first and then we'll talk about it later." I responded, took my grandpa and went home directly. As soon as I entered the house, I told my grandpa my plan. I said I wanted to give Da Ya some money.
Ask her to go to the county seat, then call me and ask my dad to make arrangements.
I thought my grandpa would disagree. After all, it was someone else’s business, and Chen Wei was not a fuel-efficient man. Unexpectedly, my grandpa actually nodded after hearing this: “Okay, how much will it cost? How about I leave my bankbook?”
Go get some for you, you have to use money wherever you go."
My grandpa's supportive attitude surprised me: "Grandpa, you asked me to do this. Are you not afraid that Chen Wei will..."
Grandpa waved his hand: "What are you afraid of? What should I be afraid of when I'm old? Da Ya is just like you in my heart. That girl is so good. When you were in school, you came to work for me every day. In the past two years, your grandma has left.
Yes, she helped cultivate the land at home. If you were a boy, our family would marry her. Forget it, let’s not talk about this first. You go and get the money first. There is 20,000 yuan in the discount. You can give me more.
Take some." As he said that, my grandfather took the passbook out of the drawer and handed it to me.
I looked at the bankbook in my hand and thought for a while: "Grandpa, why don't we just give this to Da Ya? We don't need the money now."
Grandpa looked at me: "But we can't save some for your future surgery."
When I thought about the surgery, I felt a little uncomfortable again and shook my head: "I still have a few more years to go. If I am alone, let's just do this. Grandpa, let's let Daya get over this hurdle first."
After a long while, grandpa reached out and touched my head: "Okay, our family will listen to you. You let Da Ya stay well in the county town, and she can't marry a bastard."
Grandpa gave me a lot of courage, and I felt more and more that Da Ya had to leave. A living person cannot choke to death with urine, nor can he wait to marry a bastard. Just like that, I sat at home that afternoon.
The uneasy part was that it was late at night. Neither my grandpa nor I slept. When it was nine o'clock, I wanted to leave. Grandpa looked at me and said, "Wait a little longer until Gangzi and the others have gone to bed. Otherwise, we'll have to wait for a while."
I can’t run away either.”
I felt a little panicked for no reason. I always felt that something was going to happen. My grandfather might have looked at me and patted my hand: "Jiaolong, it's okay. Even if we let Da Ya run away, Yan Hong wouldn't dare."
They are here to cause trouble with our family."
I nodded and didn't say anything. Actually, that's not what I was panicking about. I always felt that something was going to happen to Xu Meijin, so I waited for more than two hours. It was almost midnight, and I felt that it was almost time, so I raised my feet.
When I ran to Xu Meijin's house, my grandfather told me from behind: "Be careful, you will come back when Daya leaves!"
I responded, ran directly to the entrance of Xu Meijin's yard, climbed over the wall and jumped in. Fortunately, her family didn't have a dog, otherwise the barking would have been a problem. I tiptoed to the window of Daya's house, which was dark.
Yes, I put my face to the window and said softly: "Daya, Daya..."
No one answered me in the room. I looked around and felt a little anxious, so I turned on the flashlight and shined it through the window: "Big...big ya!!!"
Da Ya's body stood in the middle of the room, with a rope around her neck hanging from the beam, her feet dangling in the air, her eyes open and looking at me expressionlessly. (To be continued)
