"Talking about our family?" Aunt Gong Jian fell into deep thought, while unconsciously repeating her man's question, and after a while, she said with some hesitation: "There is no one in the village who is talking about our family." At least I haven't heard of it. However, I don't know if I'm too careful, but I always feel that some people in the village look at me a little strangely these days. ”

Originally, Aunt Gong Jian felt that she must have been thinking too much, but just now she heard the man suddenly ask about the people in the village discussing their family, so she didn't think much about it, and directly said this feeling. But after saying that, she was a little annoyed. I'm not making a big fuss, right, I wonder if my man will get angry again and reprimand himself?

But to Uncle Gong Jian's surprise, Uncle Gong Jian was not angry because of her suspicious thoughts, but nodded, and then asked more carefully: "You said that those people's eyes are a little strange, then you have to describe them carefully, where is the strange way they look at you?"

I didn't expect my man to ask such a strange question, but Aunt Gong Jian was just stunned for a moment, and immediately began to say: "What's weird, I just always feel that they have something to say, but when they see me, they don't say anything, their eyes are full of suspicion and dodging, anyway, I think so." ”

Hearing her answer, Uncle Gong Jian seemed to fall into deep thought. Seeing that her man stopped talking, Aunt Gong Jian was a little anxious, "Boss, you should tell me, Widow Liu outside is still waiting for me to answer." What should I say about her? Hey, if I had known that, I should have said nothing, grabbed the kitchen knife and left. It's better than saying that Gong Jian and their family came to our house to borrow kitchen knives like now, and they haven't returned it for a few months, this kind of unbelievable thing. Now I guess if I say that again, Widow Liu will definitely not believe it. ”

And Uncle Gong Jian over there seemed to have retracted his thoughts, he turned his head to look at the mother-in-law who was still seeking his help, he thought about it for a while, and then said: "You answer her like this, just say that the kitchen knife at home was indeed lent to Gong Jian's family a few months ago, but fortunately, because the old kitchen knife has been opened at home, so I originally planned to buy a new kitchen knife to use it back." At that time, I lent an old kitchen knife to Gong Jian's family, so you asked your mother's brother and sister-in-law to help you bring a new kitchen knife back to the town to use. ”

I didn't expect that I would be embarrassed for such a long time, and my man solved it so easily. Aunt Gong Jian patted her chest, "Yes, that's what I said." She can't go to the kitchen to look through how many kitchen knives we have. With that, she turned and walked out of the house.

Uncle Gong Jian, who stayed in the house, looked at the back of his mother-in-law who turned to leave, and his eyes were a little deep.

Anyway, as soon as Aunt Gong Jian returned to the courtyard, she sat opposite Widow Liu again. But before she could speak, Widow Liu asked with concern: "Oh, I said that the eldest sister is in charge of the house, right? Why, I haven't seen her for a few months, but I'm getting sicker." ”

You're seriously ill, your whole family is seriously ill, oh, by the way, you're the only one in your family. Although Aunt Gong Jian was very unhappy to hear Widow Liu say that her man was seriously ill again, she could only hold back her anger on her face.

Then she said, "Ah, it's nothing. Your eldest brother, he just sprained his ankle, and it's almost the same after these days. Just now, it was just him choking on water, nothing serious. ”

"Oh, it turned out that I just choked on water. I listened to the cough just now, and it was still very rapid, and I was still a little worried, but when I heard you say this, I was relieved. Oh, by the way, you haven't told me how your family has been cooking for the past few months? Who is going to leave the kitchen knife, but they can't cook. Sister, you want to teach me, how do you do it?"

And seeing Widow Liu grasping this problem again, Aunt Gong Jian is not so anxious just now, she glanced at Widow Liu, and then said unhurriedly: "What is this? Let me tell you, my old kitchen knife has already been opened three times, and it is not easy to use, and I have long had the intention to replace this kitchen knife."

When Gong Yue's little girl came to borrow it, I lent her the old kitchen knife. The next day, I sent a letter to my brother and sister-in-law, asking them to bring me a new kitchen knife. You also know that this family can't do without me, and at that time, the Chinese New Year was very busy, so I asked my brother and sister-in-law to help me run this trip. ”

Widow Liu never thought that she had worked hard for a long time, but the inside news she heard was actually such a simple explanation. After people lent the kitchen knife, they bought a new one, so naturally they don't have to worry about cooking in the past few months. Think about it again, what Uncle Gong Jian said is reasonable, isn't it at New Year's Day, her brother and sister-in-law have come to his house several times.

Thinking about it in the village now, Widow Liu felt a little disappointed with the rumors of this family. She didn't expect that the news she heard was so simple and reasonable. Hearing this kind of inside information might as well be like the people in the village who spread it randomly, which is more attractive. But no matter what, she can be regarded as agreeing with Uncle Gong Jian's answer.

After thinking about it, Widow Liu was a little happy, after all, Aunt Gong Jian and her have been sisters in the past few years, and the relationship is not bad. She didn't want someone with such a temper to do that kind of thing.

Okay, now she can put her mind at ease, and at the same time, she can defend their family outside, after all, she can be regarded as getting first-hand information.

No longer entangled in this problem, Widow Liu immediately got up and said goodbye busily: "Okay, eldest sister, I see that your family is also quite busy, so I won't delay your time." Next time, let's talk again, and if you have a chance, you can also go and sit with me. ”

If it weren't for the fact that there was really no way, Widow Liu wouldn't have come to the door, she had been so old for a long time, she didn't even have a glass of water, she was already very thirsty to talk here, so let's leave quickly.

Over there, Uncle Gong Jian didn't really keep Widow Liu, she was still a little confused, I don't know that this Widow Liu came to the door, and she had been pestering herself, and she wanted to ask Gong Jian's family about borrowing kitchen knives.
