Chapter 396: Bai Zhenzhu’s love
The smile on Mrs . Zhang’s face almost reached her ears, as she said: “You finally opened up your mind . Before Zhao Lan is there to work inside and outside the house, you can stay idle, I can also live comfortably . But now, it’s different . If we want to live, we can only rely on ourselves to do farm works . Otherwise, we will starve to death . ”
Mrs . Zhang turned her head and looked at Bai Zhenzhu with a serious face, then said to Bai Erzhu: “Our Zhenzhu is also not too young, she had reached the age of marriage . Some people came to our house to propose marriage, but since Zhao Lan left our house, no one ever came to talk about marriage . The whole village knows that our family doesn’t live a good life since Zhao Lan left, and so they don’t want to get involved in our family . The first branch drags us down, even if we wanted to look for a good family, it will be difficult . ”
“However, now that we separated from them . As long as we work diligently and prepared a dowry for Zhenzhu, what else is there worry to look for a good family?”
Bai Erzhu was about to answer, but then Bai Zhenzhu stood up immediately and said: “Niang, I don’t want to marry . I will stay with you at home, I don’t want to marry and live in someone else’s house . ”
Mrs . Zhang laughed and said: “Look at you getting all shy, silly child, how can a grown-up girl not marry? It’s just a matter of time and you turn 15 this year . Even if you can’t get married this year, you must get married next year . If we keep dragging it on, you will become an old lady . ”
Bai Zhenzhu anxiously said: “Niang, I’m not shy . I’m telling the truth, I don’t want to marry someone . ”
Bai Fugui put down the bowl in his hand and wipe the trace of soup on his mouth . Then, said with a smile: “Niang, sister has someone in her heart, so she doesn’t want to marry someone else . ”
Mrs . Zhang was shocked, she has someone in her heart? Bai Zhenzhu never talks to outsiders, nor go outside the gate . How did she have someone in her heart?
Mrs . Zhang glared at Bai Fugui: “Don’t talk nonsense, it’s bad if other people heard of it . ”
Bai Fugui shook his head and said: “Niang, I’m not talking nonsense, sister really have someone in her heart—”
Bai Zhenzhu rushed forward and covered Bai Fugui’s mouth . She didn’t let him go as she said: “Shut up, don’t talk nonsense just like you always do in front of me . Even if you want to talk nonsense, you shouldn’t be doing it in front of niang and father . If you dare to say it again, I’ll tear your mouth . ”
Bai Fugui was 13-years-old this year, but he was thin and short . He was only the same size as Bai Zhenzhu, who was 15-years old . However, he has a bit more strength than Bai Zhenzhu, who was a girl .
Bai Fugui pushed Bai Zhenzhu’s hand away and grinned: “I’m not talking nonsense, don’t you like Hu Feng? I’ve known that for a long time . You can’t hide it anymore . Do you think you can hide it forever?”
Mrs . Zhang’s facial expression changed: “No wonder, when Hu Feng joined the army and left Huangtuo Village today, you look so disheartened . ”
Bai Erzhu also frowned: “Zhenzhu, is Fugui saying true? You like that kid, Hu Feng?”
Bai Zhenzhu’s face blushed as red as a monkey’s butt: “I don’t, don’t listen to Fugui’s nonsense . ”
Bai Erzhu and Mrs . Zhang’s both experienced it in the past, so how can they not understand their daughter’s shy appearance?
Mrs . Zhang became anxious . She pulled Bai Zhenzhu’s hand said: “Silly child, whoever you like doesn’t matter, but how can you like Hu Feng?”
Bai Zhenzhu was slightly stunned, she stared at her mother in confusion: “Niang, what do you mean by that? Why not?”
Mrs . Zhang replied: “Why are you still asking? Who in the village doesn’t know that Hu Feng and Bai Zhi, were like a newly married couple? They stay together all day long . Maybe they already decided to get married . What is the use of you liking him? You have no chance!”
