Chapter 286 Dancing in Autumn
Tian Fang's mother liked to hear this, but her face looked helpless, "I can't help it, the children are pushing me too hard. My Tiger Boy, there are still ten days before the New Year, and he's already urged me to pull the vegetables in the vegetable garden over there, and he's also urged his father to build a swing, so that he can have fun during the New Year.
The children only think about this once a year, no matter how busy or tired I am, I will take time out to help them. "
The villagers praised the Tian family again. Every family had children, and they had all come to play on the Tian family's swings, so naturally they had to say good things about them.
Tian Fang's grandmother was old and had poor eyesight and hearing. After Aunt Song sat down, she looked at her for a long time before she asked, "Is this Song Erni?"
Aunt Song came over with a smile and said loudly, "Yes, Aunt Wu, I am Erni."
Mrs. Wu took her hand and said to everyone with great emotion: "She used to have the best relationship with my Xiaofen. She often came to my house and asked Xiaofen to go to the mountain to collect firewood together. During the New Year, they were the best at swinging. Many boys couldn't swing as well as them!"
She patted Aunt Song's hand and said, "You are such a good girl. You still remember to go back to your mother's home to see your mother. My Xiaofen is very stubborn and hasn't come back for many years."
Her tone was very low as she looked at Song Ergu's face, as if she was looking through her to her own daughter.
Second Aunt Song's expression darkened, and she consoled him, "Xiao Fen married far away, and it's not easy for her to travel back and forth. She also has to take care of a large family, so she probably can't leave."
"She married far away, so it won't be far for you to marry in Guoxiang? She is just too stubborn, not as obedient as you." Mrs. Wu missed her and complained at the same time.
Song Ying curled her lips when she heard this. Since her daughter was a playmate of Song Ergu, she should be in her thirties. It was really speechless that someone so old was still asking others to be obedient.
Seeing that Wu had made the topic sad, the villagers hurriedly offered words of comfort.
Song Ying leaned close to Song Ergu's ear and asked what was going on.
Aunt Song sighed and said, "At first, Xiaofen didn't want to marry in Daliwan, but your grandmother Wu accepted a lot of betrothal gifts and forced her to get into the bridal sedan.
A few years later, her sickly husband died. She wanted to come back, but your grandmother Wu disagreed. Xiaofen got angry and never came back. "
Song Ying felt uncomfortable listening to this. When Wu scolded her daughter for not coming back, she had asked Li about it out of curiosity. Li only said that Xiaofen was stubborn and unfilial.
After the villagers comforted Wu, they turned the topic to her. Someone pointed at Song Ying and said to Aunt Song: "This child who grew up with your milk is different. He is so close to you and even walks hand in hand with you. What's the difference between him and his daughter?"
Aunt Song was worried that this would get to Yang's ears and make her unhappy, so she hurriedly said, "I only come back once a year. She hasn't seen me for a long time, so she's more intimate with me."
"No, she treats you differently from others. Sister Song, you haven't been back for a long time. You don't know that your niece has a bad temper now. She is always at odds with her grandmother.
But she is very filial and buys meat for the family every few days. The number of times she buys meat in the past few months is almost the same as the number of times your mother buys meat in a year.
And on the Double Ninth Festival, she brought back cakes made by the imperial chef in the palace. Oh, those cakes were so beautiful. "
Finally, he took Song Ergu's hand and said, "You will be blessed in the future. Song Ying loves you so much. When you are old, she will definitely respect you well.
She is very capable now and knows many people in the city. On the first day of the New Year, thanks to a lady she knew, they were allowed in..."
Speaking of this, Tian Fangniang said to Song Ying: "Auntie hasn't thanked you properly yet. If it weren't for you, my Tiger Boy would have been kidnapped by human traffickers."
"Aunt, this matter is mainly about Yan Xing, she..."
Before Song Ying finished speaking, Tian Fangniang continued, "Yan Xing should thank you, and so should you. If you didn't know that Lady Jiang, who told you to go inside to hide, and you couldn't go upstairs to stop the others, then my Tiger Boy would have been taken away by the traffickers for sure."
"What a coincidence, we are right outside Sister Jiang's house. I hope Tian Hu and the others are okay."
Song Ying responded with a few words and didn't want to listen to the villagers talking here, but she didn't dare to go to the swing, for fear of being caught by Luo Yanxing and being swinged on it.
Her worry was obviously useless. When the swing stopped, Luo Yanxing jumped down, ran over to greet Song Ergu, and pulled Song Ying towards the swing: "Come on, let's compete with Song Tian and the others!"
Song Ying looked at Tian Fang, who was supported by Mei Yue and the others and whose hands and feet were weak, and refused: "No, I don't want to swing. I'll just watch from the side."
"What's the point of just watching? We've all swung on the swing, but you haven't swung on it this year!" Luo Yanxing was very excited and shouted to Song Tian and the others, "Song Tian, have you chosen someone?"
"Okay, my cousin Hao and I!" Song Tian was full of confidence.
"That's good, there's just Song Ying and I here!" Luo Yanxing replied.
Song Ying quickly rejected it: "No, I don't agree. I won't swing with you! Sister Er Ni, you guys..."
She looked over and before she could finish her words, she saw Erni and the others all took a step back.
Song Ying: “…”
She had no choice but to continue to persuade Luo Yanxing, "Yanxing, I really don't want to swing with you, I'm timid and I'm scared!"
Luo Yanxing pouted, "But they won't come with me. I can't compete with Song Tian and the others alone, right?"
In the past, she was always with Zhao Xiaocui. They were both very brave. They would kick each other and swing very, very high. They had never lost to anyone.
But this year, Zhao Xiaocui got married.
Song Ying quickly said, "How can one person not do it? You can swing higher than the two of them together, so isn't that even more amazing!"
Luo Yanxing expressed his doubts, saying that the speed of the swing would slow down when it swung back from the highest point. Without another person pushing hard, the point at which it swung back would not be high enough, and it would not be possible for it to swing too high when it swung out again.
Song Ying nodded vigorously and even asked others to help her persuade Luo Yanxing, "Can she swing higher than both of us?"
The other girls nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, you've already swung really high by yourself!"
If he didn't persuade her now and Song Ying insisted on not going, Luo Yanxing would have to pick someone from among them to go with her.
Luo Yanxing looked at the swing and became eager to try it.
Seeing that Luo Yanxing was about to be convinced, Song Tian, who knew her strength well, was worried that they would not be able to swing, so he hoped to have Song Ying as a burden, so he said to Song Ying: "Cousin, didn't you just say that you wanted Second Aunt to teach you how to swing? Here you are swinging again."
When Song Ying wanted to bite someone, she made an excuse, "I want Second Aunt to teach me, but I don't want to compete with you. It's too dangerous."
Luo Yanxing became interested, "I'll teach you! You know I'm the best at swinging!"
Song Ying thought of the painful experience before and refused decisively: "No, I don't want you to teach me!"
