Chapter 53: Rumors Stop at the Wise
In the following time, Xia Qiu took the summer rain and summer snow to pick vegetables and send them to Ruyi Restaurant to sell in the early morning, and in the evening, he went to Shuzi Pass to water and fertilize.
Life, there is a brief lull.
Xia Qing didn't dare to approach them anymore, and almost when she saw them, she ran away, as if she had seen some terrible devil.
Xia Xue would always tease, saying that she was scared now.
Early in the morning of this day, Xia Qiu and Xia Xue went to the town with some vegetables.
"Did you hear about it??......
"Really, that's really terrible, I really can't see it, Xia Qiu looks soft and weak, and her heart is so bad. ”
"Yes, Cui Fen is alone with three children, where can she manage it? After all, it is because of the lack of discipline that she has taught the child to be like this, if Dashan is at home, maybe the child will not become like this. ”
Walking on the field road, I heard two aunts who had come to work early in the morning talking, and the voice was not small.
Because he was bent over and turned his back to them, the three sisters approached, and they didn't notice it.
Xia Qiu didn't care, but when she overheard what they said, her face suddenly turned cold.
She had already guessed that Sun Yuehong would talk nonsense everywhere, and Liu Zhaodi would definitely not let go of such an opportunity that could ruin her reputation.
And what about Xia Qing, if someone asks her about this, they will vaguely confirm that she wants to drown her, so that everyone will stay away from Xia Qiu.
"Some of them are just smoking, and they are here early in the morning to say those things that are not there, damaging the reputation of others, and they are not afraid of flashing their tongues. ”
Xia Xue couldn't listen to it, she was anxious, Xia Qiu hadn't thought of a countermeasure yet, she had already opened her mouth to mock the two women.
The woman who was chatting with relish was startled, got up and turned around to look, and saw the three sisters of Xia and Qiu.
Xia Xue didn't name them, nor did she clash with them head-on, although they were angry in their hearts, they couldn't argue with her.
"Aunt Li, Granny Zhang, came to work so early?"
Xia Qiu greeted them as if nothing had happened, smiling and greeting them.
The two people known as Aunt Li and Granny Zhang, seeing Xia Qiu still smiling at each other, smiled awkwardly and said yes.
"Xia Qiu, carrying a basket early in the morning, where is this going?"
The older Granny Zhang is quite sleek, and seeing her attitude, she hurriedly changed the direction of the wind and chatted with Xia Qiu with a smile.
"It's a bit of a thing to get to town. ”
Xia Qiu said, taking out the sweet potatoes they had steamed in the morning.
"Granny Zhang, Aunt Li, I just steamed some sweet potatoes this morning, you come to work early in the morning, if you are hungry later, you can take them and eat. ”
She gave each of them a sweet potato and smiled softly.
Granny Zhang and Aunt Li took the sweet potato, you look at me, I look at you.
"Okay, Granny Zhang, Aunt Li, we still have something to do, so I won't tell you. ”
Xia and Autumn harvested the five or six sweet potatoes that were supposed to be eaten for Zhou Laosan, and said goodbye to them obediently.
"Sister, why are you still talking to them? Give them sweet potatoes? We should have a good quarrel with them, let them know what will happen if they gossip about others. ”
After walking away, Xia Xue was indignant.
Xia Qiu stopped, calmly looked at Xia Xue, who was still angry, and asked, "What about after the quarrel?
Xia Xue was not convinced, and said, "Who made their mouths so stinky?
"Sister, they are all from the same village, and you can't look up and look down. ”
Xia Yu said softly, her thin eyebrows frowned, and she was also troubled when she thought about it.
"Xia Yu is right, we are all from the same village, is it true that we will become enemies with them? I believe that the people who are saying these things must be more than Granny Zhang and Aunt Li, if everyone who says bad things about our family, we have to quarrel with them, then our family and the whole village will be enemies in the future, how can our family gain a foothold in the village?"
Xia Qiu's hand was placed on Xia Yu's thin shoulder, and he continued to explain softly: "The mouth grows on other people's faces, what others want to say, we can't stop it, we quarreled with them today, they will only say it more fiercely in the future, they all say that rumors stop at the wise, let's not care about those rumors, just do our own thing, for a long time, everyone is not stupid, and they will always understand what is right and who is wrong." ”
"But I just can't listen to it. ”
Xia Xue said with annoyance that there was hatred in her eyes, which was the hatred accumulated over the years.
Xia Qiu saw what she was thinking, because in the previous life, she was like this, resentful of fate, resentful of the people in the village against their family
Trample and bully at will.
But in this life, she figured it out, why should she care what others say? As long as she becomes stronger, everything else will be fine.
After all, this is a real society, people who are good are bullied, and people who are poor are trampled on.
"You just think they're farting. ”
Xia Qiu said with a light smile.
Xia Xue saw that she could still laugh, and her anger disappeared a little.
"Hmph, don't let me hear that again. ”
She said sullenly.
"If you hear it again, you shouldn't hear it, and then smile at them. ”
Xia Qiu's serious admonition, with a somewhat commanding tone.
She patted Xia Xue on the shoulder and taught her seriously: "Don't be impulsive when dealing with anything, because when you are impulsive, even if you are right, others will think that it is your fault and it is counterproductive." ”
"Alright, I see, my great philosopher sister. ”
Xia Xue finally smiled and didn't get angry anymore.
In the field, Granny Zhang and Aunt Li, who were still holding the sweet potatoes sent by Xia Qiu, were really suspicious of the rumors as Xia Qiu expected.
"Xia Qiu, this girl, doesn't look so terrible, you see she didn't fight with us just now, as if she didn't hear anything. ”
"Yes, maybe it's Sun Yuehong who said it nonsense, Sun Yuehong, that woman, loves gossip the most, she talks nonsense about everything, and she has a grudge against the Xia Qiu family. ”
"Yes, I don't know if it's Sun Yuehong's nonsense. ”
......
Sun Yuehong happened to pass by, and was surprised to hear their words, and she couldn't be angry.
She wanted to say something, but Granny Zhang and Aunt Li, who felt her eyes, saw her, turned around in a hurry, and when they didn't see it, they bent down and continued to work.
Sun Yuehong found that their pretense was gone, and all the words that came to her lips were swallowed back.
So much so that she had a sullen breath in her heart and had nowhere to vent.
"What did Xia Qiu's cheap hooves do?"
She muttered in her heart, secretly hating Xia Qiu's cunning, she was busy again this time.
His eyes rolled, and he secretly wondered what to do next.
Inadvertently, she saw the three Xia Qiu sisters walking away, and she followed.
