Ding Hao returned to his residence full of doubts, and saw that wormwood had been hung on the lintel, and as soon as he entered the house, there was a smell of calamus and wormwood. When Yang saw his son coming back, he greeted him happily and dusted him off. dust, said joyfully: Mother has been looking forward to it since morning, but she has never seen your figure, and now I can be regarded as coming back. Ding Hao let go of his worries for a while, and said with a smile: Mother, how are you doing these days? Have you taken your medicine on time? Zhuer often visits you, right?If this kid doesn't show filial piety to my mother for me, I can't spare him.

Yang said with a smile: That child comes every day, he is much more sensible than you, help me clean, fetch water, decoct medicine, rush to do heavy and dirty work. She wanted to tell about the happy event that the master decided to let them move to the inner house, but her son was only thinking about leaving the Ding family, and now he doesn't know if he has changed his mind. After finishing the errands, it would be better to just move there. Thinking of this, Mrs. Yang swallowed the words. The two mothers sat on the kang and chatted for a while, and Yang took out some colored threads from her arms, and said with a smile: "Come on, today is the Yulan Festival. Mother will tie a colorful rope around your wrist to protect my son." Ping An An, Mrs. Ping Ping.

Ding Hao couldn't laugh or cry and said: Mother, children only wear these things, how old am I? Yang said angrily, "Are you considered an adult?"Don't look at you as the big steward now, you are also a child in mother's heart, you, when you become a family, when will you be in the care of your daughter-in-law.Now that your mother is in charge of you, you are still a child, not a man.Hehe, stretch out your hand. Ding Hao stretched out his hand with a wry smile, and Mrs. Yang carefully tied a colored rope around his left wrist. Ding Hao watched the gray-haired old lady tie the colorful rope for himself seriously, and felt warm in his heart. He remained motionless, like a well-behaved Child, let the old lady tie the colored rope, and then cut it with scissors. After stroking the wrist, she cut it off, and put the colored thread on the kang head into her arms.

Yang Shi wondered: "What are you doing with that?" Ding Hao made a funny face at her, and said with a smile: Mother don't need to ask, son is useful. Yang smiled, but didn't ask any further questions, and said again: "Mother made rice dumplings for you. There is no fire at home. They are cooked on the big stove in the dining room. You sit down and have a rest, and Mother will go and get them back." Ding Hao hurriedly said: Mother, let's rest, I'll go, and ask Liu Ming for some more side dishes along the way.As Ding Hao said, he quickly left the yard, but he didn't go to the dining room right away. He turned outside the weaving workshop, poked his head to look in, and thought: Dong'er is not here. At this time, she should not be there yet. Go home, or you really won't be able to find her.But this girl has a tender face, and if I went in to find someone like this, she wouldn't panic with embarrassment?

Just as she was thinking about it, Luo Dong'er came out of the weaving workshop with a few zongzi, she turned around, and agreed with the room crisply: Hey, thank you Aunt Li, I'll be back soon. Someone in the room promised, Luo Donger closed the door and turned around, seeing Ding Hao at first glance, her face suddenly revealed a look of surprise, she rushed forward two steps forgetfully, remembering her identity and the environment she was in, then stopped her steps, only to He smiled shyly. Ding Hao hurried up to meet her, and took a closer look, only to see that Luo Dong'er had changed into a lotus-colored blouse for a rare occasion today, with a narrow skirt of the same color on her lower body, and a pomegranate flower on her head like other women during the Yulan Festival. Standing there with a smile on her face, she is really more charming than a flower.

Ding Hao said happily: "It's fortunate that I met you here, otherwise I really don't know how to find you." Luo Dong'er said happily: Brother Hao, I'm also worried about your coming back, but it's inconvenient to ask people, the errands in the city are done? Ding Hao said: It's almost done, by the way, these days that old woman didn't make things difficult for you anymore, did she? Luo Dong'er whispered: There are still beatings and scolding, but my mother-in-law got more than ten acres of land for no reason, so she is naturally happy in her heart.Besides, now my slave family is a needle mother, and all the daily wages are handed over to my mother-in-law, so I am not treated too harshly.

Ding Hao sighed: You are content with just less beatings and scolding?It's not convenient to talk here, when is it convenient for you to come out?Is that tricky woman watching you tight? Luo Dong'er said: "Today is the Yulan Festival, and my mother-in-law went back to her mother's house to hide from the Dragon Boat Festival." It turns out that there is a custom in this place that married women who have the conditions to return to their natal home on Dragon Boat Festival have to go back to their natal home, which is called hiding the Dragon Boat Festival. Luo Donger was supposed to go back to her natal home, but her natal home only had an unscrupulous uncle who sold her as Dong's daughter-in-law. She has no natal home to go back to, so she has to stay here alone.

Ding Hao was overjoyed when he heard it, his face was filled with joy, his eyes gleamed evilly, and he said excitedly: Really?really?Did that naughty woman go back to her mother's house?Haha, then I'll go find you tonight, hehe Luo Dong'er felt a little regretful when she said a word, and looking at his appearance at this time, drooling with teeth and claws, as if he would immediately pounce on him and swallow himself with bones, he was even more frightened, although he didn't know what he was going to do, look His beaming look also knew it was not a good thing, so he hurriedly said: No, you can't go.

Ding Hao laughed and said, "Little Dong'er, why are you so timid? No one is at home. I'll go and see what's wrong with you." no!If you really go, people will ignore you in the future.Luo Donger stomped her feet anxiously, her angry appearance was extremely cute. Although Mrs. Dong and Li were not at home, every corner of the house seemed to linger on her scent. How could she have the guts to bring Ding Hao back to Dong's house?Moreover, psychologically, she can barely accept being gentle with him outside.But she is still the daughter-in-law of the Dong family after all, if she takes him back to the Dong family, Luo Dong'er will not be able to accept it anyway.

Seeing that she was really in a hurry, Ding Hao changed his words and said, "Cheng Chengcheng, then I won't go. Tonight, the willow shoots on the moon will still be at the same place. You come to see me." I don't, whenever I come out, people will be terrified.It's rare for you to come back for a few days, so stay with Aunt Yang. In the distance, Li Shouyin, the long-term foreman, walked over with pouted. He kept his head down as he walked, as if he was about to pick up money on the ground. Before he saw the two of them, Ding Hao hurriedly said in an unquestionable tone: "It's settled, Willow shoots on the moon, the old place, if you want me to wait for a night, then don't come!

After Ding Hao finished speaking, he hurriedly turned to the building in front, and walked away in a hurry.Luo Dong'er didn't even have time to say the word of refusal, she couldn't help opening her almond eyes, and said angrily: "Did they owe you in the previous life?"will kill me!After she finished speaking, she stamped her feet, not knowing whether she was angry with him or herself. Ding Hao took the zongzi and asked Liu Ming for some side dishes.Because it was not mealtime yet, and just after returning to the room and setting the kang table, Sao Zhuer rushed in with the festival gifts that Ding Hao had bought.Ding Hao laughed and said: You have long legs, you came at the right time, come, come, sit down and eat together. The three children sat cross-legged around the kang table, and after eating, they made another pot of tea, then moved the kang table to the porch outside the door, and took three more scorpions to sit there drinking tea and chatting. The family was happy and happy, talking and laughing, Ding Hao's sharp eyes suddenly saw Miss Lan'er, the maid from the upper room, rushing over.Today's Lan'er Festival, Miss Lan'er also wore a new set of clothes.A lavender narrow-sleeved short jacket and a single skirt tied around the waist, looking handsome and neat. Ding Hao hated her for being snobbish at the beginning, but when he saw her slightly turned lips, he hated her from the bottom of his heart. Now that she is the person his brother likes, he is not so displeased when looking at her, so he got up to say hello , smiled and said: Miss Lan'er, but come to see my brother Daliang? When Sao Zhuer heard this, he turned around hastily, and couldn't help saying happily, "Lan'er, you're here." Lan'er gave him a reproachful look, stopped his forward steps, then gave Ding Hao a little blessing, smiled sweetly and said: "Guan Ding, the young master is very happy to know that you are back, please go to the back house for a drink." Before Ding Hao could speak, Mrs. Yang stood up and said joyfully, "Miss Lan'er, are you telling me that Eldest Young Master invited my Hao'er to drink?" Lan'er smiled even sweeter at Yang: Yes, Mrs. Yang, the young master regards Guanshi Ding as a confidant. These days when Guanshi Ding went to the city, the young master has been unhappy and misses him very much.Today, hearing that Guanshi Ding is back, the eldest young master specially prepared a banquet in the courtyard and invited Guanshi Ding to have a drink. When Yang heard this, her face was flushed with joy, and she hurriedly urged: "You child, what are you doing standing there stupidly, the young master calls you, why don't you hurry up." Ding Hao originally wanted to spend more time with his family, but had no choice but to agree.As soon as Ding Hao left, Lan'er turned back and followed Lan'er with a shy face, sniffing the fragrance of her body, hoping to have a few words of kindness with the girl she loved , but murmured and dared not speak. Lan'er noticed someone behind her, turned her head and saw him following, she couldn't help but glared at him, the shameless pig stared at Lan'er, and immediately frightened and didn't dare to follow, Lan'er said angrily: "What are you doing here?" I am so embarrassed that I hurriedly took out a sachet from my arms, put it together and said: "I went to the city today and bought a sachet for you." Lan'er turned from anger to joy, took it in her hand, gave him a pretty glance and said: Humph, if you have the heart, you still remember me. Sao Zhuer laughed and said: Of course I only think of you in my heart.Although this sachet is not worth a few dollars, it is my heart. Got it, I'm leaving.Lan'er turned around lightly, raised her hand to him, and left without looking back.Sao Zhu'er followed two more steps, and muttered: "Young master is too stingy. I fetch medicine for him every day. I have worked hard without credit. Since I have invited Dumb, why not invite me?"
