Chapter 241: What a Painstaking Effort
Xia Xue saw so many people walking towards the two of her, she was a little panicked in her heart, she quietly approached Xiao Yao and grabbed one of his arms.
"Brother Xiao, hello. ”
"Boss Xiao, I'm free to come over and have fun today. ”
"Boss Xiao, you are getting more and more beautiful. ”
Xia Xue just had a false alarm, it turned out that the people who worked in the village had gone home to rest and eat. When they saw Xiao Yao from afar, they came over to say hello together, and some people, seeing Xia Xue holding one of Xiao Yao's arms, envied Xiao Yao's side, and changed to a girl, and joked kindly.
Xiao Yao hurriedly took out his cigarettes and dispersed them one by one. Xia Xue saw that Xiao Yao finally lit a cigarette to smoke, she wanted to stop it, but in public, she had to give Xiao Yao a blank look.
Later, the parents of several girls who were taken to work by Xiaoqing also came to Xiao Yao and thanked Xiao Yao a thousand times. Xiao Yao also gave courtesy gifts one by one. Xiao Yao never saw Xiaoqing's father in the crowd.
"Where's the captain, didn't he go to work with you?"
"Captain Zhang went to the brigade for a meeting in the morning, and he said that he would not be back until the evening, and if you have something to look for him, I am afraid that it will have to wait until the evening. ”
After everyone greeted each other for a while, they all went home to eat, and no one invited Xiao Yao to his house for dinner, Xia Xue didn't understand this. It's just kind words, and it should be a verbal invitation to be reasonable, just saying those words of thanks, there is no substance at all.
By the time Xia Xue and the others came back, Tian Qian had already prepared a table of meals. The dining table outside the kitchen is full of enticing aromas. Uncle Qian also came back from working in his own field, and after greeting Xiao Yao, everyone sat down and prepared to eat.
Xiao Yao took out the wine he brought, filled it for Grandpa Qian and Uncle Qian first, and then looked at Xia Xue and Tian Qian.
"Do you two drink?"
"I don't drink, I'm going home in the afternoon. ”
"If you don't know how to drink, you have to drink some, there are old elders. I'm here for the first time and I'm definitely going to have a toast. ”
Xiao Yao smiled and filled Xia Xue and Tian Qian. When she saw Xiaoya and Xiaoai, they both looked at herself with longing eyes, and they also poured the wine glass in front of them, and finally filled it for themselves.
They didn't drink much wine this time, and everyone bowed their heads and ate violently. They have always been full of praise for Tian Qian's dishes. Xiao Yao also ate very right, and praised Tian Qian from time to time. can get Xiao Yao's approval, she feels that no matter how tired she is, it is worth it. Tian Qian's vanity was also greatly satisfied.
"Tian Qian, Sister Xiang'er said that she had to go to work and couldn't accompany me. If you don't go home today, stay here with me in the evening, and we'll go to your house tomorrow to have fun, okay?"
"I... I'm here at night, and I don't have a place to sleep. ”
"Yes, Tian Qian, don't leave in the afternoon, you two go to Captain Zhang's house in the evening and sleep in Xiaoqing's bed. Besides, if you leave, we won't be able to eat such delicious dishes at noon in the evening. ”
Xiao Yao thought that Xia Xue was lonely because she was alone and wanted Tian Qian, who was of the same age, to accompany her, so she strongly persuaded Tian Qian to stay. But Tian Qian's embarrassment was not to stay, but that Xia Xue said that she was going to her house to play tomorrow. There was no preparation at home, so many people went at once, what to eat?
"Then I'll go back in the afternoon and make you dinner. Okay?"
"Then why bother? If we don't come here and you don't come back, it means that there is no urgent matter at home. In this summer, don't run back and forth. ”
"Her little brother, if you don't let her go back in the afternoon, when you go tomorrow, you will bring some wine and food, and you suddenly went to her house, she is worried that there is nothing to entertain you at home. ”
Grandpa Qian watched them arguing here, and said Tian Qian's embarrassment in one word, and Xiao Yao suddenly realized.
"Tian Qian, you're wrong, what difficulties do you have, let's just say it, we are not outsiders, so we don't have to hide it. Just do what grandpa said, even bring rice, now you can rest assured, right?"
Tian Qian's face turned red, and her pretty and handsome face was smeared with a helpless wry smile. She can't help it, her family is poor, it's not that she came to work here for a few months, she often eats the last meal without the next meal. Where is the surplus food to entertain the guests?
Xia Xue also suddenly understood at this time, those villagers just now were very grateful to Xiao Yao, and before leaving, no one invited Xiao Yao to eat. It turns out that the shackles are here. It seems that she didn't propose it herself, she wanted to go to Tian Qian's house to play, and she wouldn't invite Xiao Yao, the boss, to go to her house for dinner.
The folk customs here are simple and sincere. For kind words, lies, is a deep hatred. In their opinion, when it comes to not being able to do it, it is hypocrisy, and it is better to say a few more words of gratitude and sincerity.
Jing'er came back this time, as if she had grown up all of a sudden, and she was sensible. Before the meal, he didn't go out with Xiao Yao, saying that he didn't want to bask in the sun, and he didn't go out with Xiao Yao and them in the afternoon, but went to his own land with his grandfather and father, basking in the scorching sun in the afternoon, and accompanying his grandfather and father to work.
Xiao Yao felt very relieved to see that Jing'er had become so well-behaved and seized all the time to accompany his grandfather and father.
Xiao Yao also wanted to help with some farm work, but was resolutely rejected by Grandpa Qian and his uncle, and even Tian Qian, who could do farm work, was turned away. Xiao Yao thought that Xia Xue, Xiao Ai and others couldn't do farm work, so they didn't want to make trouble again, so they had to take the four of them to play.
"Tian Qian, when you come back for vacation this time, do you also want to help the family do farm work?"
"That's not necessary, I have a lot of boys, and I don't need my help with farm work, at most I help my sister-in-law cook at home. I now give my family twenty yuan a month, and when I come back, they don't let me do anything, and they keep me like an old lady. ”
Tian Qian said this, her face was full of happiness. Since handing twenty yuan to her father for the first time, her status at home has soared, and she can no longer see her embarrassed face, and her sister-in-law is not urging her to marry herself off quickly.
Now, as long as she comes back, her sister-in-law will wait for her in front of the donkey, and even when the target family comes to urge her to marry, she will be scolded by her. She came back for vacation this time, just to let her father withdraw her relatives, she didn't like it very much, and the family set her a match.
Tian Qian's heart has been alive since she learned that Xiaoqing and Wednesday talked about their partners. Her own conditions are no worse than Xiaoqing in all aspects, but her luck is not as good as Xiaoqing. If he can also get in touch with Xiao Yao's circle, he will definitely be able to talk to himself about a boy who is a hundred times better than his current object.
Therefore, this time she learned that Xiao Yao was coming to Jing'er's house, so she hurriedly proposed to Zhou Min to take a vacation, in order to get close to Xiao Yao. Who knew that there were many good things, Xiao Yao and the others couldn't cook, and the meal he made at noon today was very much in line with everyone's appetite, and what was even more rare was that he was praised by Xiao Yao.
Although Tian Qian is a country girl, she also knows that she is outstanding, but she is self-aware. Seeing the constant beauties around Xiao Yao, there is almost nothing worse than himself. She doesn't miss Xiao Yao, she just wants to be close to him, close to his circle of brothers, and get to know some of his friends.
