Chapter 2571 Wedding Clothes

Han Si quickly made a name for herself in the town, and every household knew that An Jiuxiao had a distant cousin with a fierce personality.

As long as you dare to ask An Jiuxiao to work without giving you money or things, she will come out with a flurry of verbal quarrels that will make you blush with anger, and you can only be speechless and just give money obediently.

Not to mention those good-looking old men, even those country women with the same shrewd character were defeated in front of her.

Unknowingly, within a year, Han Si had already defeated all the invincible opponents in the town.

This year has been the most relaxing year for An Jiuxiao.

During this year, he would still teach children in the town on time, but no one was in arrears with tuition fees anymore.

Occasionally, a fellow villager would ask him to help, but every time it was over, it was no longer just a polite word.

With Han Si's efforts, he will either gain some money or give him some food.

After a few days of this, the fellow villagers who were reluctant to give up money no longer asked him for help, and they just did what they could.

The strange thing is that when An Jiuxiao was still a laborer, these people would ask him for help even if there were some weeds growing in their fields.

But since Han Si helped An Jiuxiao clearly mark the price, these people suddenly became able-bodied and could do everything by themselves.

An Jiuxiao suddenly not only became more tolerant, but also became more relaxed.

When he wasn't teaching or farming, he would either take Han Si to the hillside behind the town to bask in the sun, or teach her to read with her in the yard.

Han Si would often hold the pen in her mouth and ask him curiously: "Scholar, do you really want to attain enlightenment?"

"Scholar, how can you achieve enlightenment when you look like you are powerless?"

"Scholar, do you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?"

An Jiuxiao was quiet most of the time, getting up silently, cleaning silently, going to help silently...and then climbing into bed silently to sleep.

But since Han Si appeared, his small courtyard suddenly became lively.

The girl had many questions, but An Jiuxiao was always very patient with her and answered them sentence by sentence.

"Yes, but it's not just about studying, you also have to do good deeds."

"To achieve enlightenment, you don't necessarily have to rely on fighting and killing. Also, it's not that I'm powerless, I just don't practice."

"A lifetime... Human life is so short, yet so long. Who can say for sure what will happen next?"

Every time after answering Han Si's questions steadfastly, he would turn around and find that she had fallen asleep with her pen in hand.

She is very studious and is very interested in human books and texts. As long as she studies, she will fall asleep easily.

An Jiuxiao took it for granted and took off his robe to cover her.

Then I noticed that her red dress was a little worn out, and then I remembered that Han Si had been wearing this dress all this time.

When her clothes got dirty, she would fetch water and wash them in the house. Then she dried them in the house by some unknown method and put them on again.

"The Chinese New Year is almost here, it's time to make new clothes."

The next day, An Jiuxiao took advantage of the early morning and went out to the market alone.

Han Si, this girl, would get up early with him at first, but she started to feel lazy in the past two days.

An Jiuxiao went to the market in the town to do some shopping and found that she knew nothing about women's clothing.

Looking at those soft and light-colored fabrics, he always felt that something was missing.

I originally thought I would give up because I couldn't find the right one, but on my way back, I passed by a shop and stopped.

It was the only ready-made clothing store in town, and there were several pieces of ready-made clothes hanging in the store for display.

And the one in the middle of the store is particularly eye-catching - it's a fiery red wedding dress.

The style of wedding dresses in the small town is very simple, there is no overly complicated gold thread embroidery, only some simple patterns are embroidered on the cuffs and chest.

But even such a simple style is rarely worn in the town.

If they are not monks who go to the mountains to practice, generally no one will spend money to buy such things.

After all, brightly colored clothes like wedding dresses are not convenient for ordinary girls to wear on a daily basis.

Moreover, most of the girls in the characters are shy in their underwear, and few would wear such bold colors.

But this color... suits Han Si very well.

After much hesitation, An Jiuxiao entered the door.

As soon as he saw him coming in, the owner of the clothing store became nervous: "Jiuxiao, you, why are you here? I already gave you the wages you paid for helping me move the fabric last time!"

As he said that, the boss looked behind An Jiuxiao very warily, fearing that he would see the figure of the aunt at the door.

An Jiuxiao responded gently: "Don't worry, Boss Yang, my cousin didn't come with you."

"Not coming? That's great..." Boss Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "Jiuxiao, why did you come to see me?"

"Boss Yang, my cousin has been in town for a few days. The girl came in a hurry and didn't bring any changes of clothes. I thought it was almost the Chinese New Year, so I bought her two new clothes."

When he heard that the business was coming to his door, Boss Yang immediately beamed with joy and walked out of the counter happily: "That's a great relationship! Your cousin is at the age of beauty, how can she not buy new clothes during the Chinese New Year?"

"Come on, come on, Jiuxiao, let me show you. These two coats here are the styles that girls in town like. They are warm and beautiful. Can I wrap them up for you?"

Although the town where An Jiuxiao is located is not close to the extreme cold, it can still get cold in winter.

Therefore, the shopkeeper immediately sold two cotton-padded jackets to An Jiuxiao.

However, An Jiuxiao was only thinking about the red wedding dress and completely ignored the boss's recommendation: "Boss Yang, I want to see this one."

Seeing An Jiuxiao pointing at the red wedding dress, Boss Yang was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead: "Oh! That's right! It's time for you to prepare a wedding dress for your Han Si!"

An Jiuxiao, who was still staring at the wedding dress, was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean?"

"Ah? You don't know? You shouldn't!" Boss Yang looked at his confused face and showed a hesitant expression: "Didn't you know that Liu Chang was going to propose marriage to your Han Si, so you came to buy this wedding dress?"

"Propose marriage?"

An Jiuxiao was stunned, he had no idea at all.

Boss Yang saw that he really didn't know, so he simply told him the matter.

It turned out that Liu Chang fell in love with Han Si at first sight after meeting her for the first time half a month ago.

Several times when An Jiuxiao was away, he would peek at Han Si near An Jiuxiao's house.

Just yesterday, Liu Chang simply discussed it with his mother and went up the mountain to plead with his master to help him arrange the marriage.

Liu Chang's master is the most powerful person in the town. If he speaks, the marriage will basically be confirmed.
