Li Xinke knew that Hua Nianxin was in a bad mood, bought the battery, and left the shop.

A few steps out of the store, Li Xinke heard Zhang Zuojia's voice:

"Mom, I want to go see Aunt Mu Hao. I'll just go and see her, say hello, and come back. ”

"You did so badly in the exam, are you embarrassed to go out and hang out? You see my mother, I was told a few words by Bu Zhi's mother, and you don't feel ashamed? You are a student in a key class, and your score in the exam is not as high as Li Xinke's. You still have the face to go to her house......"

As soon as Li Xinke heard what Hua Nianxin said, she felt very uncomfortable.

Zhang Zuojia only looks optimistic and cheerful on the surface. In fact, Zhang Zuojia is more introverted, and his heart is not as strong as people think. When something happens, I will only hide it silently in my heart, and under normal circumstances, I will not go to someone to talk to.

Li Xin wanted to care about Zhang Zuojia, but she also understood that she couldn't go to Zhang's house. This time, whether or not I can see Zhang Zuojia is secondary, and it will make Hua Nianxin unhappy.

Sometimes, the relationship between people is so wonderful.

She obviously wanted to meet her friend Zhang Zuojia, but for various reasons, she could only not meet Zhang Zuojia.

Li Xinke was walking alone on the way home, listening to the barking of dogs around her, and inexplicably felt a little irritable.

When he got home, Li Xinke took off the clock and put on the battery. Adjust the time and hang it on the wall in the living room.

I saw Li Shanshan come in with a bamboo basket of eggplants, so she moved a small bench and sat down, and took a wet rag with Li Shanshan to wipe the dust on the eggplant.

When Brother Zhu Zi and the others come back, they will be able to sell the eggplant to Brother Zhu Zi and make a little money.

Li Xinke's grandmother was busy in the kitchen, and when she saw that Li Xinke and Du Muhao had returned, she invited her neighbors and their family to dinner.

On the biogas stove, cook the ribs in a pressure cooker.

I found some straw and put it in the kitchen, prepared to put it in the stove, and when the fire was ready, I stir-fried the vegetables in the big pot.

Since Li Xinke came to this world, he rarely went into the kitchen. It's also very unfamiliar with how to make a fire. When I saw my grandmother carrying the straw into the kitchen, she stood up and prepared to help.

Du Mu saw it and immediately said:

"Cocole, I'll come. ”

When Li Shanshan heard this, she quickly shook her head and said, "Mom, you can sit on the bamboo chair and rest for a while." I went to help my grandmother make a fire, and my sister was here, making tea for the guests for a while. ”

With that, he got up and went into the kitchen.

After not waiting for two minutes, Li Shanshan was pushed to the hall by her grandmother. said that she had been helping out since she came back, and she hadn't eaten lunch yet.

At this time, just sit in the hall and rest.

Li Xinke's grandfather fed the pigs and returned to the hall with a few grass leaves on his clothes.

When Li Xin saw it, she hurriedly walked over and helped her grandfather remove the leaves. Seeing that his grandfather had two eggs in his hand, he smiled and asked:

"Aren't all our chickens sold? These eggs ......?"

"It's not Zhuzi's father yet. Their chickens have just been laid, and they're still hot. ”

Li Xinke's grandfather said, took the eggs, and walked into the kitchen. There are guests coming to the house, so I have to cook a few more dishes before I am embarrassed to put the food on the table.

Du Muhao said to Li Xinke:

"Ke Ke'er, go, take the peanuts that your aunt brought to me, and bring them to your grandmother. Let her fry a plate so that you can make a snack for your grandfather. ”

Few people grow peanuts here, but many people drink alcohol and like to eat fried peanuts.

Li Xinke listened, happily agreed, and quickly found out the peanuts and sent them to the kitchen.

When she entered the kitchen, she heard her grandfather say:

"I'll ask again, lest the two of them don't know and light the fire themselves. ”

With that, he left the kitchen.

Li Xinke's grandmother smiled and said to herself: "This old man has to make an extra trip to let people know that he is very sincere......"

Li Xinke couldn't help but snicker when she heard this.

Put the peanuts on the stove and quietly return to the living room.

The smell of food soon spread from the kitchen to the living room.

Li Shanshan breathed in the air with the smell of vegetables, sniffed hard, and said softly to Li Xinke: "Sister, so happy, we will be able to eat soon." ”

Li Xinke hurriedly gave Li Shanshan a look and motioned her to say a few words.

She and her mother, both of whom had eaten in the morning, came home hungry all the way, and were no better off than their sister and grandmother. When my sister said this, if their mother heard it, she couldn't tell how uncomfortable it would be.

Li Shanshan listened and lowered her head embarrassedly.

If it weren't for the fact that she was too hungry and the dishes fried by her milk were too fragrant, how could she say this?

Half an hour later.

Zhuzi buddies and a large family came to the living room.

Zhu Zige's mother brought over a jar of rice wine and placed it on the wooden table in the hall.

Sister Wanfu and Brother Zhu Zi, each brought some fruits and gifts, and placed them on the wooden table.

Brother Zhu Zi's father, as well as Brother Zhu Zi's grandfather, gave Li Xinke and them four watermelons over. said that Ye Wanfu's brother planted it at his own house, it was quite sweet, and he sent it to the neighbors to taste it.

Du Muhao smiled and said:

"We've already eaten several of their watermelons. ”

Li Xinke's grandmother listened, looked at Ye Wanfu with a smile, and said with a sincere face:

"Wanfu, your mother's piece is really good. You see, the melons your brother planted are all so big and so sweet. ”

"Granny Li, my mother's house is similar to here. It's just that the climate is different, so it's not very suitable for growing watermelons. Actually, it's pretty good on our side. ”

Ye Wanfu said modestly.

Hua Nianzhu took advantage of the fact that they were all chatting, so he walked over and weighed the eggplant in the bamboo basket. He paid Du Muhao and said:

"The price of eggplant has always been like this, it has not risen or fallen. After a while, you will be able to sell chili peppers. Red peppers are easier to sell, so they should be spicy. ”

"Okay, I'll pick it later, so that the peppers turn red, and then I'll pick it and sell it to you." ”

Du Muhao said.

"Okay. ”

Hua Nianzhu nodded and agreed.

Ye Wanfu sat next to Li Xinke, leaned close to Li Xinke's ear, and said softly: "Do you know? The bag of gifts I brought was actually sent to me by her grandfather, and then handed it over to you. ”

"Zuo Jia studied in the study, that is, after eating, she could breathe in her yard. She was afraid that her mother would see that she was not in the study and say that she was lazy, so she had to ask her grandfather to help her bring ......"

Li Xinke heard this and felt that Zhang Zuojia's life was not easy.

Thinking of these gifts, they must be Zhang Zuojia's family members who gave them to Zhang Zuojia. Otherwise, Zhang Zuojia wouldn't have gone to the market, and he wouldn't have been able to buy apples and other fruits.

A large bag of red dates in a bag, as well as some fruits, were all brought by Ye Wanfu for Zhang Zuojia.

Li Xinke only felt in her heart that she owed Zhang Zuojia a lot of favors.
