Chapter 636 637 [I won’t touch you]

  The two were chatting and talking, and it got dark before they knew it.

   Although Kushui Village has electricity, ordinary households cannot afford electric lights. Usually kerosene lamps are used, and there are even some people who are reluctant to light kerosene lamps, and go to sleep directly when it gets dark.

   Ernst & Young Fujia is similar.

   After dinner, I went to sleep.

   At this time, Li Shuihua became nervous again.

"Don't be afraid, I won't touch you." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I know that you feel wronged when you marry me. I also know that a poor man like me is not worthy of a woman like you. So You have to be self-reliant, you have to fight, and I will never touch you until I am worthy of you."

  Li Shuihua was a little surprised when he heard him say this, but also a little skeptical, "Are you telling the truth?"

   "What are you doing lying to you?" Xiang Nan nodded and said, "If you lie to me, you will be fined to eat Guanyin soil until you die!"

   Seeing him make such a solemn oath, Li Shuihua couldn't help being moved.

  She didn't expect An Yongfu to be such a considerate man, which made her feel warm in her heart.

   "Okay, let's go to bed. You sleep inside, your forehead sleeps outside, with your clothes in between. You have scissors in your arms, and if your forehead crosses the boundary, you poke your forehead." Xiang Nan said again.

  Li Shuihua nodded.

  …

  The next night, the two of them hardly fell asleep.

  Xiang Nan is a little bit. The earth kang was solid, with a layer of mattresses on it, and it wasn't too noisy, which made him ache.

  Li Shuihua was nervous, afraid that Xiang Nan would violate his oath, so he was terrified all night and didn't sleep well.

  But this night, Xiang Nan slept really well and didn't touch her at all, which made Li Shuihua feel at ease.

   "That... thank you last night." She thanked Xiang Nan.

   "You're welcome." Xiang Nan waved his hand, and took out a white towel with sheep belly from the drawer, then cut his finger and sprinkled a few drops of blood on it...

  Li Shuihua was a little puzzled at first, but then suddenly realized, she couldn't help being a little shy and a little moved.

   After a while, An Yongfu's mother came to wake them up.

  Xiang Nan took the towel and went to open the door first.

  An Yongfu's mother saw the blood stains on the towel, and immediately showed a relieved smile on her face.

   Li Shuihua ran away on the day of welcoming the bride and came back the next day. It's hard not to wonder what happened in the middle.

   It’s like someone was sloppy that day. Could it be that he ran away with a wild man? It represents a considerable part of public opinion.

   Now that I have this towel, I don't need to say anything.

  …

  After getting up early, tidy up the house, boil water and cook.

   Li Shuihua came in all kinds, and the corn porridge was very fragrant, and it didn't boil at all, which made Ernst and Young Fu's parents very satisfied. An Yongfu's two younger brothers and a younger sister are also very satisfied.

  Anjia An Yongfu is the boss, two younger brothers An Yongshou, An Yongkang, and younger sister An Yongning, together, they are Fushou Kangning, which is a very auspicious name.

  But unfortunately, the same name has different names, and the same cover has different handles. The name is good, but the life is bitter. Born in this poor mountain valley, it is not easy to have enough food, let alone other things.

  After the meal, An Yongfu's father, An Guomin, called the family together to discuss the separation.

  Now that An Yongfu is married, he has to set up a new home, divide the house and land, and of course take over the debts.

   "Yongfu, you are the eldest, and there are two younger brothers in the family. You will build a house and get married in the future, so I can't give you more land.

  Just the vegetable garden, two acres of land, enough to grow taro. You and Shuihua will open up wasteland again, and plant some corn in the corners, and a few vegetables are enough. "Anmin separated the family.

  Xiang Nan nodded. He didn't point out farming to support his family. It didn't matter if there was more land or less.

"The two of you live in the new house, and all the pots and pans are ready. Dad will give you another 20 yuan to save some money." An Guomin said again, "Marriage caused a famine of 500 yuan, you and Shuihua will take it In any case, the money must be paid back.

  Dad also knows that you will have a hard time in the future, so you must be tighter. However, you are the head of the family, so you have to set a good example for your younger brothers and sisters. "

  Xiang Nan nodded, "I already know, Dad."

  …

  After the family division, Xiang Nan and Li Shuihua became a family of their own.

  Xinjia’s assets include two adobe houses, two acres of land, 20 yuan in cash, and 500 yuan in debt.

  The house was built last year, not bricks, but adobe.

  The adobes were also dried by themselves. In order to dry the adobes, the four of An's father and son were tired all winter.

  The two mu of land is hillside land with no water source, and it is all irrigated by carrying water from the foot of the mountain. Tired will definitely be tired, but there is no way.

  Twenty yuan in cash, in real life, is not enough for Xiang Nan's pocket money for a day, but now it is the only cash flow for the whole family. And its purchasing power is not high, it can only buy more than 100 catties of white flour, enough to feed one person for two months.

  The debt of five hundred yuan is even more of a problem. If you only rely on farming, you can't make much money. When the harvest is good, you can earn fifty or sixty per mu. If the harvest is not good, after paying the public grain, I am afraid that there will be no food to eat.

   Kushui Village needs relief every year, and food and clothing are still a big problem so far.

  So after calculation, the predicament they are facing is still very serious.

   "Shui Hua'er, I don't need to say anything else, just keep your eyes open, and I'll make a show for you!" Xiang Nan looked at Li Shuihua and said.

  Li Shuihua nodded.

  …

  Xiang Nan then walked seven miles, went to the foot of the mountain to buy paper and pens, and picked up two pots of water by the way.

  When he got home, he started writing on paper.

   "What are you writing?" Li Shuihua saw it and asked curiously.

"Writing articles is exchanged for money." Xiang Nan explained, "I heard that when I was in school, those great writers made a lot of money by writing books. Want to give it a try."

   "Are you a writer?!" Li Shuihua couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this.

  Junior high school composition is well written, do you want to become a writer to make money? ! Really silly and naive.

   "Why, you don't believe me?" Xiang Nan looked back at her and said.

   "No." Li Shuihua waved his hand, organized his words, and then persuaded Xiang Nan, "I respect your dream, but I'm worried that if it doesn't work out, what should I do?"

  She was worried that in order to become a writer, Xiang Nan would do some creative work at home every day, which would delay the work in the field. When the time comes, what will the couple eat and drink? How can I pay off my debts?

  Her father is already a lazy man, she doesn't want to marry a man, if he is still a lazy man, then she has no hope in this life.

   "It's really not going to work, so I won't write about it, and I will work steadily in the future." Xiang Nan said.

  Li Shuihua heard what he said, so he had no choice but to do so.

  …
