Xia Zhi counted all the money, she hid the two small silver horns and two strings of money tightly, and the rest of the money was still packed in a money bag and put it in the cabinet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Sun Lan'er didn't look at Xia Zhi to count the money at all, and after the rare fragrant pancreas, she happily checked the rag head brought back by Xia Zhi. The rags sent by the cloth shop are not good for purses, but they are very useful in Sun Lan'er's opinion.

"Sixteen, let's pick out the ones who make purses. I'll make you a little mattress and a few little cushions for the rest. Sun Lan'er smiled and discussed with Xia Zhi.

Of course, Xia Zhi would not disagree, but she still said to Sun Lan'er: "Sister Lanzi, you have a lot of work at home, and it is quite difficult for us to make purses." Other work, you can do it, but don't be reluctant, you will be tired and hurt your eyes. ”

Sun Lan'er said that she was measured. These days are comfortable, and she feels as if she has endless energy to do anything. Xia Zhi also told her about selling purses, and Sun Lan'er originally refused to accept money, but later refused, so she agreed to charge ten big dollars per purse. Naturally, she won't take the money home.

"Sister Lanzi, I'll save your money for you. If you have any expenses, come and tell me. Xia Zhi knew Sun Lan'er's situation, so he planned for her. Sun Lan'er can make money like this, and she has to hide it from her stepmother Sun Wang.

Sun Lan'er couldn't wait for this.

Layue came over to do needlework with Xia Zhi and Sun Lan'er. She was a little angry, although she had already complained, she couldn't help but say to Xia Zhi and Sun Lan'er at this time: "The third sister is too bad, I can't erase it." ”

Sun Lan'er didn't understand, and Layue told her about the blind date in May. Sun Lan'er is also very upset about the moon, and the things in May are too inauthentic.

"They also blackened my grandfather and my grandmother with a piece of cloth first. "The summer solstice said.

Layue is not stupid, and after thinking about it, he understands the meaning of the summer solstice. Second Uncle Xia and they should have already made up their minds, and following Old Man Xia on a blind date was just a formality for Old Man Xia to see. "No wonder they can't wait to get to town to buy cloth!"

Xia Zhi smiled, she estimated that Old Man Xia would have already figured out this truth.

Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Xia Lin ran in from outside and told Xia Zhi that Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia had arrived home with May. They came back late, and the town's big bazaar had long since dispersed. So along the way, Second Uncle Xia and his family didn't get in the car, and they walked back completely.

"Well deserved. Layue said that she still regretted not seeing their embarrassment with her own eyes.

“…… As soon as the second uncle entered the house, he asked our master to call him to the upper room. Xiao Shu'er said again.

Layue immediately couldn't sit still and wanted to go back to the backyard to have a look. Old Man Xia must scold Second Uncle Xia, she wants to listen to it. The little girl in Layue understands in her heart, but she is not a spicy person, although she was designed by May, I wish they were cleaned up by Old Man Xia, but she can't pull her face to quarrel with May.

Xia Zhi thought about it and stopped Layue. "Let Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Linzi go, and come back and talk to us about it. ”

Layue listened to the summer solstice very much: "When my father and mother come back, I have to tell them." ”

This summer solstice did not stop the wax moon. Sun Lan'er asked how the Qian family's descendants were.

"People are very good, and Sister May has succumbed. Layue said quickly. She didn't come for the money month, but hated May.

Xia Zhi secretly glanced at Layue, and his heart was relieved. Layue was just angry in this matter, and she had a good impression of the Qian family, and she didn't care much. Since this is the case, Xia Solstice has no scruples when he speaks.

“…… The family is good, and there is no petty family spirit in words and deeds. Qian Yuelai is honest, but he is actually quite shrewd and capable. ”

"Oh, that's a pity. Sun Lan'er said.

In the evening, Xia Zhi cut the meat he bought to cook, leaving Sun Lan'er to eat, and called the little black fish, Layue and Xia Lin to eat together. This time, she didn't invite the May siblings.

During the meal, Xiao Heiyu'er, Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Xia Lin kept talking about how Old Man Xia scolded Second Uncle Xia, and everyone felt very relieved when they heard it.

The little black fish was not completely satisfied: "If you want me to say, you will ask for the piece of cloth I bought for May." ”

Layue hurriedly asked, "Uncle, did you tell my grandfather?" She was happy to watch May spit out the things in her hand.

"I said, your father also wants it, but in May they refused to return it, saying that the clothes were all made and they couldn't return it. "The little black fish's dissatisfaction is here. In fact, the words of asking for cloth in the future were said by Xiao Heiyuer to Second Uncle Xia in front of Old Man Xia, and Old Man Xia didn't say it, but he didn't reject Little Heiyuer's words either.

"Our grandfather is soft-faced, they say so, they definitely can't go back. Ohashi said.

"Second uncle, they are looking at our master's temper. Xia Zhi smiled.

Layue is still angry: "They are too shameless, and it is not enough to take advantage." ”

"Yes. Xiao Xia Lin nodded heavily, agreeing with his sister's words, and he also added in a milky voice, "My mother said that the second uncle and the second uncle are thick-skinned. Also said...... They have thick skin and enough to eat, but we are thin-skinned and can't eat. ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Layue's face turned red, she glared at Xia Lin, and counted that he shouldn't have said anything. Xia Lin didn't say anything, buried his head and ate meat.

Xia Zhi bought pork belly, and in order to satisfy the big guy's cravings, he simply made a steamed meat. The pork belly is cooked until it can be pierced with chopsticks, take it out of the pot and cut it into large slices and put it in a bowl, add various seasonings to the basket drawer and steam it, and then buckle it into a large plate. This dish is also called button meat, which is full of color and flavor, and it is not greasy at all, and it is a hard dish that they must have during the New Year's festival and banquet.

The children of the farmer's family usually don't eat this. Even if the family buys meat and comes back, they will not cook such a troublesome dish.

"Sixteen, the meat you make is even better than your milk!" The little black fish also used broth to eat rice, and praised the summer solstice while eating.

Everyone nodded their heads, and the meal was so satisfying.

Xia Zhi smiled, feeling that it was too easy for children of all sizes to be satisfied.

After tidying up, Xia Zhi brought needlework to the big willow tree in front of Mrs. Wu's house to enjoy the shade. When she arrived, several people had gathered under the willow tree, and you didn't know what they were talking about. When someone saw the summer solstice coming, he stabbed the person next to him by an elbow. The man raised his head and saw the summer solstice, and immediately stopped talking.

The corners of Xia Zhi's mouth twitched. She knew that the big guy must be talking about the Xia family, so she didn't say anything when she saw her coming. She only pretended not to know anything, said hello to everyone, and sat next to Old Lady Wu.

There is no entertainment in the free time, and the big girls and little daughters-in-law gather together to like the Li family, the head of the family, to gossip for a short time. But if any family has any trouble, it doesn't take more than a day's work, and the whole village knows about it. And the largest gossip distribution center in Daxingzhuang is the place under the big willow tree.

This place is spacious, with the shade of large willow trees, and large stone piers for resting, and people from the streets before and after love to come to this place. The summer solstice privately calls this place the Great Willow Forum of Daxingzhuang.

And the hot topic of today's Big Willow Forum seems to be the Xia family.

Xia Zhi sat next to Mrs. Wu doing needlework, and the others couldn't help but start asking her after talking about him for a while. First, Mrs. Wu asked her about the market. Mrs. Wu asked quite seriously, and the summer solstice was all said.

"Don't look at sixteen young, it's quite capable. "There was an aunt who praised the summer solstice, talking about her selling cherries and flowers to make money.

The big guys also agreed, and then the little daughter-in-law asked, "Sixteen, did your May sister see each other today?"

Mr. Xia rented a car, and everyone knew that he was going on a blind date in May.

"I don't know. Xia Zhi smiled, "No one told me." ”

"It didn't work out. Immediately, a daughter-in-law said, "If it happens, Xia Solstice will definitely know." ”

"It didn't work out in May. Another daughter-in-law said, "The moon is finished." ”

Xia Zhi looked over, and it was Zhang Liu's daughter-in-law who was usually good friends with Aunt Xia, and she was also the one she had seen talking the most from afar just now, and she didn't say anything when she came.

"Aunt Zhang, why is there still a matter of Layue?" Xia Zhi asked curiously.

When she asked, she opened the conversation box of Zhang's sixth daughter-in-law. Zhang Liu's daughter-in-law's version of the May blind date is like this. The Qian family wants to be close to the Xia family, and the old man Xia first took a fancy to the eldest granddaughter May, after all, May is the most beautiful and promising granddaughter of the Xia family (Zhang Liu's daughter-in-law). Then Layue had to go with him. As a result, May didn't take a fancy to the Qian family's descendants, but Layue did.

For this, May also left the blind date scene first. However, it is difficult to say whether the descendants of the Qian family have taken a fancy to Layue.

Xia Zhi laughed angrily: "Sixth aunt, where did you hear these words? You were there at the time?"

"Sixth daughter-in-law, aren't you at home today, didn't you go to the market?" Old Madam Wu said a word.

"I didn't go, this is what her mother told me in May. Zhang's sixth daughter-in-law said hurriedly. What Aunt Xia said, that is naturally a very authoritative version. Aunt Xia and Zhang's sixth daughter-in-law are good friends, and often go to her house to chat. After coming back from the set today, Aunt Xia went to Zhang's sixth daughter-in-law's house.

That's too much. Aunt Xia wants to beautify May, but she shouldn't be so dark.

"Aunt Sixth heard it wrong. I'm here with my uncle and my little tree, but that's not the case. "The summer solstice said.

"Oops," Zhang's sixth daughter-in-law immediately cried out, "I didn't make up a word, it was all your second aunt's words." Your child's house is gone, and there are some things you can't understand. What your second aunt said, that can't be wrong. The little girl in Layue looked at Fu'er, and she had something to do in her heart. ”

The summer solstice naturally has to defend the wax moon. Then she saw a little fat man running towards the backyard of Xia's house. Xiao Xia Lin didn't know when he came, and how many of them he heard, he must have run back to tell Layue.

Zhang Liu's daughter-in-law also saw Xia Lin, but they didn't take it seriously. Xia Lin was only five years old, and he still didn't understand anything in their eyes. But Xia Zhi knew that it wasn't like this. Xiao Xia Lin has a heart and an eye, and he knows how to learn his tongue the most.

The corners of Xia Zhi's mouth twitched, and he stood up and walked to the backyard.

The backyard was quiet, May, July and Xia Yang were lying under the windowsill of the upper room, and they didn't hear Xia Zhi entering the yard. Xia Solstice didn't alarm them, and it wasn't until she came to her that she coughed deliberately.

The three sisters and brothers turned their heads and saw the summer solstice, and their faces changed.

Xia Zhi ignored them and went straight into the upper room. The atmosphere in the upper house was very depressing, Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia were sitting on the kang, on their left were Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia, and on the right were Third Uncle Xia and Third Aunt Xia with Layue and Xia Lin.

Layue was crying, and her eyes were red from crying. Uncle Xia San and Aunt Xia San were also red-faced, obviously angry.

"You can believe what Xia Lin says. How old is he, what do you know!" Second Aunt Xia grinned.

Uncle Xia's family was angry enough by her attitude, and when they saw Xia Solstice coming, several people seemed to see a savior. Layue ran forward first and hugged Xia Zhi's arm. "Fourth sister, you come to give a review. ”

When Xiao Xialin came back just now, he first went back to the West Wing and told his father and sister what he heard. Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia came back from work, and they had already heard Layue talk about the blind date in May. The two of them are honest people, and they feel that Old Man Xia has taught Second Uncle Xia's family a lesson, so they want to settle things and calm people, and this matter will be over. But after listening to Xiao Xialin's words, these two honest people couldn't bear it anymore, and Layue cried at that time.

After that, they came to the upper room, told Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia about the matter, and then called Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia to come over and confront him.

Second Aunt Xia didn't admit that she had said such things, only that Xia Lin was ignorant and had learned the wrong tongue.

When Xia Lin was learning in the West Wing, he said that Xia Zhi was also present. It wasn't because he was close to the summer solstice, he didn't run under the big willow tree just now.

So now Layue is going to give her a comment on the summer solstice.

When the summer solstice came, she guessed that this would be almost the case, but she still came. Since she came, she was not afraid of things.

A room full of people watched the summer solstice. Second Aunt Xia was a little flustered: "It's not about sixteen." I didn't say anything anyway. Second Uncle Xia also looked at Xia Zhi meaningfully, meaning that she should not mix, but he was immediately glared at by Old Man Xia.

Xia Zhi smiled secretly, pushed away the wax moon, and sat next to Old Man Xia.

Old Man Xia looked at Xia Zhi and asked her, "Sixteen, did Xiao Wu hear it wrong?"

Xia Zhi smiled: "Master, what my second aunt said, she must know best." Don't ask me, sir. "Cautiously, it seems that he is afraid of offending Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia.

Aunt Xia felt that Xia Zhi did not testify to Xia Lin, but was biased towards her, so she showed a smug look on her face. Second Uncle Xia was more perceptive, and immediately lowered his head.

Next, Old Man Xia scolded Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia again.

"Quickly apologize to your brother and niece! No matter whether you make that piece of cloth or not, get it back for me immediately!" Old Man Xia roared.

Second Uncle Xia stood up and didn't dare to say anything. Second Uncle Xia kicked Second Aunt Xia, and Second Aunt Xia went out reluctantly, and when she came back, she had a piece of cloth in her hand.
