#头条创作挑战赛#

Last time, Niu Shouli, the head of the Niu family, heard some gossip about Liu Juhua, the daughter-in-law of the Niu family, and Zhang Jiaozi, the new blacksmith in the village, so he went to Liu Juhua's house in the afternoon and taught Liu Juhua and her mother-in-law a lesson. Before leaving, he said angrily to Liu Juhua: "You have to keep the women's way, otherwise, the family law will not spare you." After speaking, Niu Shouli didn't drink a sip of tea, and left angrily.

After the old woman of the Niu family sent the patriarch away, her face also sank: There are really many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door. The old woman said to her daughter-in-law Liu Juhua: "Chrysanthemum, people are terrible, in the future, you should go to the blacksmith's shed in the box, we have done our best, lent him a garden house to live in, and you helped him set up a stove, and this morning also lit a fire and opened the furnace, don't let the patriarch catch us any tricks." With tears in her eyes, Chrysanthemum nodded.

It is said that Zhang Box's ignition in the morning to open the furnace to strike iron has become a big news in the village. In the morning, when some of the people who had seen the excitement came home, they turned out their shovels and sickles to see what the blacksmith had trimmed. The people of the stone castle know that over the years, after they bought the farm tools in the field, they used them vigorously, used them vigorously, used the shovel head wrongly, used the hoe blunt, and sharpened the sickle again and again into a crescent shape. Now it's okay, there's a blacksmith in the village, and he can repair it at any time.

said that Zhang Boxie had not finished lunch, and someone came to Zhang Box, carrying a shovel and a sickle or something, and came to Zhang Boxzi to repair. As soon as Zhang Boxzi seemed to be alive, he hurriedly stuffed a few mouthfuls of food into his mouth, drank a sip of water, and hurriedly came to the blacksmith's shed and accepted them one by one. At this time, someone took out the money from his pocket, and he knew that the people of the stone castle were kind to him, so he said to everyone: "Repair the farm tools in the field, and do not need silver taels in three days, and whoever wants to have kung fu can help me pull the wind box." When the villagers heard this, they all smiled on their faces, and several people said: "I'm free these days, I'll pull the wind box." "They all feel that it is a great honor to be able to pull the wind box.

Throughout the afternoon, Zhang Box's "Ding Ding Dong, Ding Ding Dong" was busy without work, although he was busy sweating profusely, his heart was joyful. Liu Juhua listened to the sound of the iron through the wall at home was real, she felt that the "jingling" sound was like hitting her heart, making her restless, and she wanted to go out to help Zhang Jie pull the wind box but she didn't dare to go, and she couldn't do housework. This state of unstoppability tormented her for a whole afternoon.

It is said that Zhang has been playing iron all afternoon, and in the evening, he feels a kind of lightness and pleasure that he has never felt before. He thought that he would become a real blacksmith only by coming to the stone castle. He remembered his mother's words: "The land of the stone castle is wide and the population is large, and the work of the blacksmith will definitely not be less." "That's true, the work that was harvested this afternoon can't be done tomorrow. One afternoon, though, he felt that something was missing.

After taking stock of his thoughts, Zhang suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Sister-in-law Chrysanthemum this afternoon. He guessed wildly: Didn't she hear my tinkling of iron, did she go out, or did something happen at home? Still is... His mind was a mess. Thinking about it, he walked out of the garden house like a night tour, pushed open the fence door, and unconsciously came to the gate of Liu Juhua's house.

This is the first time that Zhang Jiuzi has approached the gate of Liu Juhua's house, and he wants to go in and ask if there is something wrong. He raised his hand and began to knock on the door, but his hand reached the door panel and it was retracted. He thought: This is not appropriate, he is too reckless, if he is seen by others, he does not know what gossip will be said.

Liu Juhua was still restless after dinner, she sent the two children to sleep and walked around the yard, fiddling with this for a while, and poking and poking that for a while. She admitted that her mind had already run to the garden house: what did the strong man eat tonight, did he have hot water to drink, what was he doing, did he sleep, or was he using cold water... The image of Zhang Boxzi washing her body with cold water suddenly appeared in her mind again the night before yesterday. Before she knew it, she walked to the gate, she wanted to see if the strong man was tired today, or to share with him the happiness of this afternoon's non-stop iron. She was just about to go to the door and plug in the bolt, when she heard her mother-in-law call her: "Chrysanthemum, what are you doing when you open the door, bring me water to wash my feet, I will wash my feet and sleep." The mother-in-law's voice was very high, clearly warning her: Don't go out!

Liu Juhua's mother-in-law's shout made the box standing outside the gate hear it clearly. He was startled, and Chrysanthemum's sister-in-law was standing opposite him, just a board apart. At this time, he seemed to see the hand of the chrysanthemum sister-in-law on the side of the door panel retract from the deadbolt all of a sudden, as if he heard her heartbeat of "dong dong".

"I'm not going out, I'm here to see if the deadbolt of the gate is plugged in." Zhang Jiuzi heard Liu Juhua's answer to her mother-in-law at the outer door, and then Liu Juhua's footsteps went away from him.

The moon rose, the voices of the people in the stone castle gradually weakened, and the pedestrians in the alley were gone. Zhang had no oil lamp, sat in the room and looked at the moonlight, remembering the scene just now, he knew that a lonely man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old and a widow in his thirties were too close to each other, and they would definitely gossip. He warned himself that he should pay more attention in the future, and suppress his emotions so as not to cause any trouble to Chrysanthemum's sister-in-law.

When he got up to go to bed, he saw a man in his thirties coming out of the alley, who had crossed the slate bridge and entered the willow grove by the river. Zhang Box wondered, who is this? Sneaky. He didn't dare to sleep, for fear that some bad person would do something bad. Zhang closed the door for a moment, trying to wait for any movement. After a while, another person came, and the box gently opened the crack in the door, and it looked like a woman. This time, Zhang Box's eyes widened and watched, and when the woman walked to the mouth of the alley, the moonlight was shining, Zhang Boxzi saw that the woman was wearing a red scarf, a willow waist, thin steps, and a slow twist of her buttocks, and she also went straight to the willow forest.

Zhang Qiaozi saw this demon shadow and guessed that this must be the "fox spirit" Wu Danizi!
