Chapter 57 Going Back
At the foot of Shushan, in the wheat fields of Shenshu Village, a farmer was weeding in the fields. In the scorching sun, the farmer wore a bamboo hat and looked up from time to time to wipe his sweat. His appearance was not very old, and at most he was in his twenties. However, this farmer was a little different from some nearby villagers. Although he had been working in the fields for several months, his arms rolled up with cuffs had fair skin and no thick cocoons on his palms, as if he was born to not change his body due to labor.
During the work of the young farmer, he suddenly shook his whole body, and a complicated expression appeared on his low face. Then he straightened his body and looked up at the sky, silently silent. After a while, he took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened it and put it back in his arms. The young man bent down to pack up the farm tools and pottery jars, placed it in the basket behind him, patted the dust on his body, and walked towards the village.
A clear river surrounded by a small river in the sunshu village. At this time, a group of women washing clothes were pounding clothes by the river. A middle-aged woman who was washing clothes saw him approaching and immediately asked with a smile: "Xu Dalang, have you finished the weeds?"
"I have some left, I will do it tomorrow!" the young man replied with a smile, his shy smile made some young girls by the river feel moved.
When the young man walked away, a few girls were still staring at him and stopped their work. Seeing this, the middle-aged woman who was asking about it, she smiled and scolded: "Big girl, come back to her senses! The Xu family's Dalang has gone away!"
"Hehe, no wonder they miss the spring! The Xu family's big man is handsome, gentle, and strong, and is good at doing farm work. Don't mention them, if I am ten years younger, I might also fall in love with him!" A woman with a big waist next to her smiled.
"Hahaha, Aunt Hu, you are so moved that you are so happy. I'm not afraid of the old man at home slapping you in the mouth!" A cardamom girl came back to her senses and joked, "What a pity, Xu Dalang has already married, but it's a waste of your efforts!"
"That's true, haha!" The fat woman laughed heartily, "I have seen Xu Dalang's wife, Nie, once! Tsk tsk, that girl is so beautiful that she is like a fairy, and she also has a good craftsmanship of embroidery, which is quite compatible with Dalang!"
"Yeah, I heard that the son of the village clerk who got married, the wedding dress on the newlyweds was also embroidered by Nie. He was so clever that he was not as skillful as his peasant daughter-in-law!"
"You guys say that whether Xu Dalang and Nie are born into wealthy families, it is common for young people to decide for life, and it is common for them to work together in the world!"
"Shh, don't chew around. Even Xu Dalang and Nie... we just don't know that there is a down-to-earth family in the village, which is always a good thing. I'll help you more on weekdays!"
"Yeah yeah!"
A helpless smile appeared on Xu Dalang's face in the distance. Although he had walked a long way, with his eyes and ears, how could he not hear the comments of these women? The simplicity of these village women made him feel a lot. If he could live his life in this sacred tree village, it would not be a bad thing. It would be a pity...
After walking on the mud road in the village for a while, the young man saw his small thatched hut from afar. Slow smoke was rising above the thatched hut, and a circle of low bamboo fences were surrounded in front of it. Some vegetables that were usually eaten were planted in the small courtyard. For some reason, these vegetables grew well and were a little stronger than ordinary vegetables.
As soon as the young man approached the courtyard gate, the wooden door of the thatched hut opened with a creaking sound, and a young woman walked out of the inner room.
The woman was wearing a linen short shirt and a wooden hairpin was simply inserted into her bun. The simple and simple clothes on her body further highlighted the woman's pretty and beautiful face and the noble temperament that was out of the world. She was standing tall at the door, smiling at the returning young man.
"Dalang is back! I just cooked the meal and will be used soon!"
"Well, thank you for your hard work!" The young man put his back basket in the corner of the wall, approached the woman, smiled and reached out to stroke the hair scattered on his wife's temples behind his ears, "Eat together!"
The dishes on the table were extremely simple, two light side dishes and a bowl of green mushroom egg soup. "Xiaohong laid an extra egg today. I guess you will go to the field in the afternoon, so I added an egg to the soup!"
"Okay, you can drink some too!" Dalang smiled and served a bowl of egg soup for his wife.
There was nothing to say during the meal. When Dalang finished eating, the woman packed up the dishes and tidied up while lowering her head and muttering: "You... wait and go to the field. I have something to tell you!"
Dalang was stunned and nodded slightly, "Well, okay! I... also have something to tell you!"
"Then you tell me first!" The woman smiled and looked up.
"No hurry!" Dalang stood up, took out a small cloth bag from his arms and opened it, and took out a beaded hairpin from it. "I went to the town to sell eggs today and saw a peddler on the side of the road. Among his cargoes, this hairpin is the most beautiful, so I bought it for you! Come on, I'll wear it for you!"
"Does it look good?" The young woman held her hair bun in her hand, a hint of blush appeared on her face, and she looked at her husband expectantly.
"Well, it looks good! My wife is the most beautiful!" Dalang smiled.
"Hehe!" The woman was happy when she heard this. A sweet and bright smile appeared on her beautiful and dignified face, which made the young man on the other side look a little dazed.
"You know what you know!" The woman threw herself into the young man's arms, snuggled her beautiful face to her husband's chest, and asked softly, "Didn't you say that those eggs are exchanged for money and want to buy a piglet to raise?"
Dalang was slightly stunned, sighed softly, and shook his head without saying a word.
"It's okay, at most I will take a few more embroidery jobs and I will be able to get a piglet!" The woman looked at Dalang's somewhat ugly face and comforted her softly.
"No...no need!" Dalang said bitterly, "Actually, this is what I want to tell you. We don't need to buy piglets anymore. My time is up!"
As soon as the young man said something, he felt his wife's body stiffen, and his arms tightened a little.
After a long time, Dalang finally heard the Miaorener in his arms ask softly again: "Can you not leave?"
The young man said silently, but just pressed his face to his wife's hair and gently rubbed it. The young woman finally lost her speech, and her shoulders trembled and sobbed in her husband's arms.
"When will you come back?" the woman asked sadly as she looked at the young man who was about to walk out of the room.
"I am still too weak to bring you out of this world. When I come to this world again, I promise you that I will bring you to my world." The young man said solemnly, "What's more, you have been in the world for more than half a year, so it's time to go back to heaven to arrange it!"
"I...wait for you!" The woman leaned against the door frame and murmured.
When the young man gradually disappeared into the horizon, the woman looked at everything around the courtyard and the hut in lingeringly, and walked out of the door slowly. A colorful light flashed, and a noble female fairy wearing a phoenix crown and a colorful dress appeared in the simple farmyard.
The female fairy looked down at her lower abdomen, gently stroked her, and turned to look at the horizon, "Little thief, if you want to leave, I won't tell you! But if you come back late, I can't avoid you!"
