Chapter 21: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice
Mrs. Zhou looked at the faces of these two people singing and harmonizing, and her heart was even more bitter, and she couldn't wait to raise her hand to give each of them a big-eared scraper, and glared: "What should I do? Do you mean that the future of these two children will not be able to be taken care of without you two?"
Zhou Caitian and Zhao Chunmei didn't expect this dead old woman to speak so politely to them.
Both of them were red-faced and red-eared by her sarcasm, and they didn't know what to say.
Zhang Lanying and Zhang Xiaochi, sisters and brothers, almost laughed out loud because of what their grandmother said.
Fortunately, I endured it in the end.
However, the two sisters and brothers were still very moved in their hearts, at least at this moment, the grandmother was on the side of the two sisters and brothers, not on the side of the Zhou family, otherwise the situation of the two sisters and brothers would be even more dangerous in the future.
"Uncle, aunt, Xiao Chi and I will appreciate your kindness. Zhang Lanying stood up from the kang and said slowly, "It's just that Xiao Chi and I are used to living in our own home, and we are not used to moving to live with you, first, we are not used to it, and secondly, I am afraid of causing trouble to you." After speaking, she paused, a calculated fire crossed her dark eyes, and she looked at the two members of the Zhou family with a smile, "After all, ...... After the fire in our house before, it had already caused a lot of trouble to my uncle and aunt, and I asked my uncle and aunt to raise the only surviving big fat pig for our family...... After our big fat pig went to your house, I'm afraid it also brought a lot of trouble and inconvenience to your family, so I thought about it just now, and I plan to go to my uncle's house with Xiao Chi this afternoon to rush back, I don't know what my uncle and aunt think?"
Zhao Chunmei and Zhou Caitian were overjoyed after hearing Zhang Lanying's words a second ago, thinking that she was enlightened, and was ready to stand on the side of the two of them to help them speak, but the next second the two of them heard that Zhang Lanying said that they were going to drive the pig back, and their smiling faces instantly turned cold, and the two of them were not fools, so they naturally knew that the reason why Zhang Lanying, a cheap girl, said this, was not because she saw this dead old lady here, so she took the opportunity to mention this matter, and wanted to go back to the big fat pig, and the two of them were so angry that they were about to vomit blood, especially Zhao Chunmeiγ
She thought that by taking the dead old woman back, she would be able to coax the two sisters and brothers to their Zhou family, but instead of mentioning this matter, the dead old woman accused the two of them everywhere.
Now Zhang Lanying, a cheap girl, is taking advantage of the fire to rob and want to go back to the big fat pig.
How does this work?
The big fat pig has been fed in their Zhou family for a month, and it has long become their Zhou family's thing.
Now that this cheap girl says that she wants to go back, she will go back, does she really think that the things that entered the gate of their Zhou family are so easy to be taken out?
It was a dream.
Zhao Chunmei grinded her teeth and said flatteringly: "Yingzi, the pigs have grown so big, I'm afraid it's not easy for you to rush back, it's better to raise them in your aunt's house first, and when the New Year comes, your aunt will let someone kill you and get it back, how about it?"
"Then how can it be done?" How could Zhang Lanying not understand the little Jiujiu in Zhao Chunmei's heart, and hooked her lips and said: "This pig has been raised at my aunt's house for so long, and I have eaten a lot of things from my aunt's house, if our sister and brother don't drive the pig back, isn't it deliberately causing trouble to my aunt and uncle?"
Zhang Xiaochi also wanted to go to Zhou's house to drive the big fat pig back for a long time, but there was no suitable time and excuse, plus Zhang Lanying had been noisy about moving to Zhou's house three or four times before, so that she almost forgot that their family still had a big fat pig fostered in Zhou's house.
Now hearing Zhang Lanying suddenly mention this, Zhang Xiaochi immediately became energetic, "Yes, aunt, my sister is right, in the afternoon, I will go with my sister to drive the pigs back, don't make trouble for you." β
The big fat pig was originally a pig that the Zhang family had kept for the New Year, not to mention more than 100 catties, if it was fed to the end of the year, it would definitely be more than 200 catties, but unfortunately because of a fire, the Zhou family took the opportunity to find an excuse to drive the pig over.
Now, if they don't take this opportunity to rush back, by the end of the year, it is estimated that their sister and brother may not even be able to see a single pig hair.
"No way!"
Zhao Chunmei refused without thinking about it, the big fat pig had already been fed in their pigsty, that was their Zhou family, and she would never let these two little go back.
Scold!
Zhang Lanying sneered, knowing that it was not easy to get back the big fat pig, she glanced at Zhao Chunmei with a smile, "Auntie, didn't you and your uncle tell me and Xiao Chi that you would agree to let our sister and brother drive the big fat pig back after we were settled?" Could it be that from the very beginning, my uncle and aunt never planned to return the fat pig to our two siblings?"
"Ahem!"
Zhou Caitian coughed, and when he saw Zhang Lanying's aggressive posture, he hurriedly stood up to play a round and explained: "Yingzi, your aunt didn't mean that, your aunt meant that the big fat pig has grown so big now, and you sister and brother will definitely not be able to come back just by relying on your sister and brother, she is afraid that you will be injured in the process of driving the pig, so she disagrees." β
"It's okay uncle. Zhang Xiaochi squinted his narrow eyes and said with a smile: "We can call Brother Beiting to help us, he is a soldier and has great strength, let him help us drive the pigs, I think there should be no problem." β
Zhou Caitian "......"
was choked up by Zhang Xiaochi's words, and there was a feeling that he had lifted a stone and hit his feet, after all, he thought that if he said this, the two sisters and brothers should have temporarily dispelled the idea of returning to the big fat pig, who would have thought that things would develop like this.
Even more angry, Zhao Chunmei, a melon mother-in-law, has nothing to think about what to do with the old lady back?
Now it's okay, the two sisters and brothers didn't coax them to the house, not to mention, and even the big fat pigs in the pen were going to be asked to go back by the two sisters and brothers.
It's called a knot in my heart, and I can't wait to step forward and slap Zhao Chunmei's two ears to vent the anger in my heart.
As soon as Mrs. Zhou saw her son's hesitant expression, she knew that he was reluctant to return the pig, so she knocked on the ground with the cane in her hand, and said impatiently: "What is this, that, that? β
"Mom!"
Zhao Chunmei's mouth was about to be crooked by what this dead old woman said, and she stomped her feet very dissatisfied, "Why are you messing around with this sister and brother, this Yingzi and Xiaochi sister and brother are both short of food now, if they drive the pig back, where will the two sisters and brothers go to find food for the pig?" she muttered dissatisfiedly, " It's better to feed it in our house first, and kill it at the end of the year, I'm asking the two brothers and sisters Xiazi and Bowei to send them back, why do you spend so much effort now. β
