Chapter 010: The Widow's Door (2)
Ah Sheng saw that Xu Ning's face was very lost, with a touch of sadness, thinking that it was because he was going to leave in the future, so he comforted: "I am not far from the place where my uncle works, and I will come back every once in a while." ”
When Xu Ning was about to speak, Shi interjected on the side: "Brother Asheng, is it really? Then you have to come back often to play with me." ”
"Ah Sheng, how can I have time, hurry up and go back, just play, have you finished your homework during the summer vacation!" Xu Ning glared at this fun-loving younger brother.
"I did it a few days ago, but I didn't get in the top three in my class. Stone replied with a pout.
"Okay, I know you're good, let's go, go home, I'm dying of heat. ”
It was hot, and I didn't long stand in the sun before I was sweating.
Li Xiumei thinks that it would be good if she married Xu Ning to Ah Sheng in a few years, the two families are neighbors, they know the roots, and their daughter is young and doesn't know, she looked at Ah Sheng just now, and she obviously liked Ah Ning. The children in the countryside got married early, and their feelings opened up early, but when they thought of Ah Sheng's mother Tian Cuihua, their eyes darkened, and the woman had a lot of opinions about her, and she was not necessarily willing to let Ah Sheng marry her own daughter.
Xu Ning went in to cook, but was stopped by Li Xiumei and asked her to rest more, and she went to cook.
When she returned home, Xu Ning's heart became steady, although this family was very poor and very broken, but because of her family, she felt very warm. The next thing is to see what she wants to make money, otherwise she will go to junior high school, and her family can't afford to pay for her two children. She is still young now, who will believe when she goes out to tell fortunes to see feng shui, especially when she has not recovered the memory of her previous life, she is a very ordinary country girl, and she will suddenly be able to tell fortunes and predict the future, which will frighten people, and it would be good if others didn't treat her as a monster.
After the family had eaten, the village chief Xu Chunhui came to visit when he heard that Xu Ning was back. The village chief is an uncle in his fifties who is lame and is said to have been injured when he went to the countryside and has been working as the village chief since his return. In the past, when Shi's father was alive, he took good care of their family.
"Ning girl, did you get hurt?"
"Yes, but it's not very serious. Xu Ning said aggrievedly, she knew why the village chief came, she was actually fine at this time, but she couldn't say that, otherwise the village chief wouldn't do anything to Ergui.
"Aning......" Li Xiumei knew that her daughter was fine, and she didn't know why she said this.
"Yes, this Ergui is too disagreeable, how do you want to teach him?"
"Village chief, since the incident has happened, no matter how much investigation is pursued, I can only ask him to compensate for the injuries I have suffered, so that I don't ask for much, let him compensate me for the cost of medicine. ”
Xu Ning originally wanted to toss Ergui in private, but thinking that she was a person who learned the Tao, it would only break her cultivation like that, so it would be more appropriate to directly let Ergui compensate her, and besides, Xu Ergui sold him for money, at least to make him lose his money, so she felt comfortable.
"Hmm...... In this way, I will ask his family to compensate some money, and pick up another 50 catties of rice, and forget about it, after all, Ergui is a decent person, I am afraid that he will be punished harshly, and it will not be good for him to seek revenge in private in the future. ”
Xu Chunhui pondered for a few moments and made a decision, after all, relatives, broken bones and tendons. And Xu Ergui is a gangster who acts like a vicious dog, such a person can't be offended too much, otherwise the dog will bite people indiscriminately when he is in a hurry.
Then Xu Chunhui went to Ergui's house, but Ergui refused to compensate Xu Ning's family, and finally Xu Chunhui forced him to take 20 catties of newly harvested millet to Xu Ning's family.
"A-Ning, that's it, you also know that Ergui is the one who spends money to hold the child, and it is estimated that there is no money. Li Xiumei sighed.
Originally, she didn't expect Ergui to compensate, and Xu Ning came back safely and intact, so she burned incense to the tablets of Shi's father and in-laws, thanking them for their blessings. As for the fact that it is not easy to get back twenty catties of millet now, pay more attention to Ergui and Chunhua in the future.
"Okay, mom is soft-hearted, I can't help it. In the future, if he offends our family again, he will definitely make him look good. Xu Ning said in frustration.
However, this time he has already warned Ergui, and he should not behave nonsense and trouble her family in the next few days.
In the past two days, the family was worried and scared, so they went to bed early after dinner.
just slept until midnight, Xu Ning heard the movement of something crawling on the beam of his house, and got up to see, it was...... Two adult weasels. Xu Ning got up and saw them, and the strange thing was that they were not frightened when they saw Xu Ning, and they looked at Xu Ning twice before leaving.
Xu Ning was a little strange, these two beasts obviously didn't come to steal things, nor did they come to harm their family, as if they were warning something. Early the next morning, Xu Ning walked to his chicken coop to look, and sure enough, the two old hens were still there.
So I walked under the main beam where they stayed last night, and it seemed that there was powder floating down, this is ...... As soon as his eyes tightened, he immediately understood why the two weasels came in the middle of the night, they came to repay the favor, and the little weasel they saved two days ago was their child, and they came to remind this girder that it was moth-eaten and that the old house would collapse soon.
Then Xu Ning calculated the hexagram, and sure enough, after half a month, the old house would fall down after a heavy rain.
Just as she was thinking about what she wanted to tell her mother about this, she saw the stone run back in a rage.
"Sister, the people in the village say bad things about you and your mother!" said that his mother was a water-based poplar, and after his father passed away, he was restless, saying that his sister was a drag oil bottle, not his father's daughter.
"Keep your mouth on them, and ignore them. Xu Ning comforted the puffing stones, it was not the first time she had heard them say this, Xu Ning was also very helpless, just because her mother was good-looking and had the status of a widow, those people were biting their tongues behind their backs.
"By the way, I passed by the second uncle's house just now, and saw a child in their yard, many people were watching there, and I heard that he had just been raised, and the second uncle was even more proud. ”
After listening to Shishi's words, Xu Ning didn't expect their family to be so fast, and they really went to raise a child and bought it with the money she sold, which was really ironic.
What's even more excessive is that after a while, Chunhua actually went to their door with several other women to show off, and when she spoke, she naturally talked about her mother and what she seduced Xu Dayou, and Tian Cuihua made trouble at her doorstep, and it was only a day, and most of the people in the village knew about it.
Since ancient times, there has been gossip where there are women, and this technique and numerologists have used divination and divination to derive and widely use it, and it has been handed down.
Xu Ning couldn't listen to it after listening to a few words, she originally wanted to cast spells and teach these women a hard lesson, but she also thought that cultivators can't harm others, otherwise they will reduce their life expectancy and affect their future fortunes, and if they don't have good thoughts in their hearts, they won't be able to cultivate the Tao. What's more, for these low-class people, she spared her life very much.
But let them do this, I thought that her family was still bullying, her mother was used to being misunderstood and abused in order to calm things, she didn't want to continue like this, and a little lesson to them didn't affect anything.
So she ran to the corner and picked up the pole, and as soon as the courtyard door opened, she waved the pole in her hand, especially to her second aunt Chunhua. While beating, he scolded: "Let your mouths be cheap and slander my mother, and you have nothing to do when you are idle!
