Chapter 186: Rushing to the Market

"Hmm. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xia Xiucai smiled and nodded, "Now is not the time to take a vacation, if you don't go back today, the mountain chief will be unhappy." ”

If Xia Xiucai doesn't go back, Li Shanchang will be unhappy, if he doesn't go back to the academy to work, he won't be able to earn money to the Tian family, and the Tian family will not agree.

"Dad, why are you going to go back? Did you tell my grandfather? Xia Zhi asked Xia Xiucai again.

"Isn't it a big gathering in Linshui Town today? Let me see if there is a car in our village to go to the market? It's easy to get to Linshui Town, and it is estimated that there will be a car back to Fucheng. Xia Xiucai said slowly.

It seems that he is planning to hitchhike the whole time. Even if it costs money, it's much cheaper than hiring a car. Xia Xiucai was so economical, Xia Zhi couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Tian.

Tian has always been very particular about pomp when he goes out.

Tian Shi drooped~ and pulled his eyelids, and was sandwiching cakes for the eldest girl and the second girl, but he didn't have anything else to say.

"My uncle asked my father to find a car, and we're going to go to the market in a while." Xia Zhi said to Xia Xiucai.

"That's good, I can borrow light." Xia Xiucai said with a smile.

"Going to the market again?" Tian was still drooping~ pulling his eyelids, and his tone barely fluctuated.

"Hmm." Xia Zhi nodded, did not explain to Tian, and did not ask Tian if he agreed.

"The gas at home is gone." Tian was silent for a while before speaking.

"Oh......" Xia Zhi didn't rush to answer, as if he was thinking about it seriously, before he smiled and said, "Then I'll go up to the set and see if I can buy some back." ”

Tian stopped talking.

Xia Xiucai felt that the conversation between Xia Zhi and Tian was not as simple as it seemed, he looked at Tian and Xia Zhi, and in the end he didn't say anything.

After breakfast, Xiaoshu'er circled around the summer solstice, begging to go to the market together. Xia Zhi deliberately teased him, refusing to agree for a long time, and finally waited for the little tree to start snorting, Xia Zhi smiled and nodded.

The little tree was so happy that she almost jumped up.

"Everyone goes to the market, who will do the work at home?" Tian finally couldn't help it and said with some annoyance.

"Mother, don't you still have me?" Xia Qiao originally sat silently on the side, but at this time, he immediately caught Tian's words, "If you have any work at home, just leave it to me." ”

Tian glanced at Xia Qiao quickly, then withdrew his gaze and pursed his lips at the same time. If it was usual, she would definitely have a seizure of Xia Qiao, but today she held back.

Not to mention the summer solstice, from now on, she can't easily get angry with Xia Qiao. Knowing this in his heart, Tian's mood was very bad.

The eldest girl and the second girl were both standing on the side. They looked at Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao, and Tian, and they were all busy talking to Tian. "Aunt, we can do any work at home, no need for Brother Daqiao. If Brother Daqiao is willing to catch the market, then go there. ”

"You know what!" Tian was so angry that he couldn't sprinkle it on his children as usual, so he threw such a sentence to his two nieces, and then went out with a curtain down.

The eldest girl and the second girl looked at each other, and they both showed expressions of confusion.

Xia Xiu had just come over to play the round. "Your aunt is not rushing at you, eldest girl, second girl, don't take it to heart. Your aunt is a person with a knife mouth and a tofu heart. ”

The eldest girl smiled at Xia Xiucai: "Uncle, we know." My aunt didn't treat us as outsiders. Erya immediately nodded in agreement.

Xia Xiucai also smiled, and seemed to be very emotional: "You are both good boys. You both know your aunt's temper, if you have anything in the future, don't take it to heart. ”

"We know that we definitely won't take it to heart. My aunt and uncle are all for our good. The eldest girl and the second girl said in unison.

Xia Xiucai praised the two of them for being sensible again, but in his heart he remembered what Xia Zhi had said. The attitude of the eldest girl and the second sister is a little excessive, which makes people uncomfortable.

Thinking so, Xia Xiucai told Xia Zhi and Xia Qiao again that they should pay more attention when talking to Tian in the future. "I'm not at home, you~ mother is such a temper. It's just lip service, and it doesn't hurt anything. That's your mother, you have to respect her. ”

It means that when he is not at home, as long as Tian does not do anything excessive, that is, if he says something bad or excessive, he will also let a few children not care about it, and let Tian do something.

Xia Zhi smiled, and didn't bother to argue with Xia Xiucai, but happily agreed to Xia Xiucai's request.

She nodded in agreement, and Xia Qiao and Xiao Shu'er didn't speak.

Xia Xiucai was relieved and went out to find Tian, only to see Tian standing outside the fence gate in the front yard, talking to Sun Wang next door.

Sun Wang had a big belly and a smile on his face. Tian's back was facing the courtyard, so she didn't see Xia Xiucai coming, but Sun Wang's was facing the courtyard, and when she saw Xia Xiucai coming, the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.

"Hey, Brother Xiucai, my sister-in-law has only been out for a while, and Brother Xiucai is here to find it!" Sun Wang's appearance is not beautiful, but he is very good at teasing, and his voice is quite crisp and beautiful. The four words of Big Brother Xiucai are coming out of her mouth, and they seem to be very beautiful.

And she is also very good at talking, such a half-joking and banter remark is to praise Xia Xiucai and Tian's good relationship, Xia Xiucai is very close to Tian's.

Xia Xiucai politely called his younger siblings, and then talked to Tian and asked Tian to go back to the house.

Tian saw that Xia Xiucai came out to look for her, and Sun Wang's words made her face very bright, and her mood was much better for a while. But she is still very reserved in the face of Xia Xiucai.

"I just came out for a while, what are you looking for? It's really inseparable from it for a moment, which makes people laugh. I told the Sun family brothers and sisters to talk and then go back, you can do whatever you like. ”

Xia Xiucai laughed with him, not angry at all.

Sun Wang's family is a very eye-catching woman, she laughed and said, "Brother Xiucai, this is going back to Fucheng." Oops, that's a big deal. I'm at home every day, I don't go anywhere, and my sister-in-law can talk to me whenever she wants. Hurry up and go back and help my big brother Xiucai clean up. ”

Tian glanced at Xia Xiucai, and this time he didn't say anything more.

Sun Wang's laughed again: "Brother Xiucai went to Fucheng this time, and I don't know when I will be able to come back." Leaving my sister-in-law alone at home, you know how difficult it is for my sister-in-law! ”

"How dare I care about this!" Tian glanced at Xia Xiucai again with resentment.

Xia Xiucai laughed again, but in front of Sun Wang's family, he didn't get tired of Tian's family, but just urged Tian's again.

Tian didn't take Qiao again this time, she said a polite word to Sun Wang, and followed Xia Xiucai back. The two of them left, and Sun Wang stood at the door, and when he saw the two of them enter the house, Sun Wang returned home slowly. She seemed to be in a good mood, humming a little song as she walked.

Xia Xiucai didn't take any salute when he came back, and he went back more neatly, except for a pair of shoes that Tian made for him, there was nothing else to take.

However, the shoes were wrapped in a furoshiki by Xia Xiucai and tucked into their sleeves like a baby. He also told Tian that he had worked hard for her.

"Dad, it's getting late. You have to go back to Fucheng, don't tell my father to go. We were just about to go to the backyard. Xia Zhi looked at the two of them crookedly, and couldn't help but remind him.

Xia Xiucai also noticed that the hour was not early, so he said goodbye to Tian. "I've worked hard for you in family matters." It's very reluctant.

"What's the hard work, it's been like this all these years." Tian said, but his eyes glanced at Xia Solstice and Xia Qiao.

Xia Xiucai immediately understood, and told several children in front of Tian to listen to Tian's words and live a harmonious life.

Xia Solstice responded with a smile.

"That's good." Xia Xiucai smiled and nodded.

Tian snorted softly, and then sent Xia Xiu out.

Xia Xiucai was about to go to the backyard, so Tian sent him to the door and gave a few words, but he refused to follow Xia Xiucai to the backyard. Xia Xiu knew that she didn't agree with Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, and she didn't force her, so she went to the backyard with Xia Zhi, Xia Qiao, and Xiao Shu'er.

Old Man Xia's family had already had breakfast and were talking to the little black fish in the house. Mrs. Xia took out the needlework basket from the cabinet and carefully packed the embroidered purse into a cloth bag.

"Dad, mother, I'll go back to Fucheng today." Xia Xiucai entered the house and spoke to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia very respectfully.

Mrs. Xia was busy and stopped what she was doing: "It's only been a few days since I came back, and the kang at home hasn't been hot yet." Can't stay two more days? Your father misses you a lot, and you two are chattering or something. ”

Old Man Xia was noncommittal to Mrs. Xia's words.

Xia Xiucai hurriedly explained, saying that he was able to come back for the past two days, and he still asked for leave from Li Shanchang, and it would be bad if he didn't go back. After all, there are still many students in the academy waiting for him to teach.

"It's important to get down to business." Only then did Old Man Xia speak, and he told Xia Xiucai to go back to the academy to study and do things hard. "Li Shanchang is good to you, let's also repay the kindness. You teach with your heart, don't think about anything else, don't let down Li Shanchang. ”

Little Black Fish and Xia Zhi came back from Fucheng, and they had already told Old Man Xia how Shan Chang Li treated the two of them. Old Man Xia was naturally more grateful to Li Shanchang.

As for Xia Zhi's begging Li Shanchang not to advance wages to Xia Xiucai, the little black fish got Xia Zhi's instructions and didn't tell Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.

Don't look at the little black fish's young age and temper is still very upright, but he really has to keep his mouth tight, he can definitely keep the secret.

For Old Man Xia's instructions, Xia Xiucai obediently agreed.

Only then did Old Man Xia talk about Tian: "The matter of her two nieces, if she lives in your house, you will have nothing to live on, but it is just a matter of two more pairs of chopsticks." But you don't care about their marriage. People like Lao Tian's family, we don't know the in-laws they are looking for. …… You told them about others, and in the future, they will complain for a lifetime. ”

It's still a trivial matter to complain, and the key is that the reputation is not good.

Xia Xiucai's eyes flashed, and he responded vaguely to these words.

Old Man Xia probably knew that Xia Xiucai couldn't be the master of the Tian family, so he sighed. "I've said everything you need to say, you can't be confused anymore."

"I see, Dad." Xia Xiucai bowed his head and agreed.

"Master, we have to catch the market, and my father is also going to Linshui Town to take a ride, do we have a car here?" Xia Zhi asked Old Man Xia.

"Yes." Xia Zhi came to speak, and Old Man Xia's mood immediately cleared up. He smiled and told Xia Zhi, "Your uncle came back to tell me a long time ago." I asked your third uncle to go out and ask, it's time to come back. ”

As if in response to Old Man Xia's words, Third Uncle Xia walked in from outside. He greeted Xia Xiucai and told Old Man Xia: "The sixth child's car is going today, I told him, and the car will arrive in a while." ”

"Hurry, hurry." Old Man Xia urged the big guy to hurry up and prepare. Because Xia Lao Liu drove to the market to do business, the most delayed time.

Mrs. Xia listened to Mr. Xia's urging, and hurriedly took the purse and handed it to Xia Zhi. "You don't have to get it back for as much as you sell, you can buy a ball of black thread and a ball of white thread for your milk, and you can spend the rest as much as you like with your uncle."

"That's fine." Without waiting for Xia Solstice to speak, the little black fish agreed happily first.

Because he promised too quickly, so merryly, he made everyone in the room laugh.

Layue's side was also cleaned up and hurried over. She also holds a bag in her hand, which is the purse she has embroidered these days. Layue also took out the purse to show the summer solstice.

"Ah, Layue, you embroidered so much!" Seeing the number of purses that Layue took out, Xia Zhi was taken aback.

"There's also my mother's embroidery here." Layue said with some embarrassment.

It turned out that Aunt Xia San knew about Xia Zhi's selling purses, and felt that this was a way to make money to supplement her family's income. Her needlework is also good, and she is a very diligent and hard-working person, so she also took the time to embroider a few purses.

Although the purse embroidered by Aunt Xia cannot catch up with Mrs. Xia's, it is on par with Sun Laner's embroidery, and it can also be sold at a high price.

"My third aunt is really capable." Xia Zhi said with a smile.

Uncle Xia San was smiling innocently beside him. Aunt Xia San was still a little embarrassed, she came over and whispered to Xia Zhi. "If you can't sell for a price, don't fight with others. Even if you take the inferior money, that's fine. ”

"Third aunt, don't worry, you will definitely be able to sell it at a good price." Xia Zhi said with a smile.

As he spoke, everyone went outside. Because Xia Xiucai was also going to Linshui Town with the car, Uncle Xia San and Aunt Xia San stopped Xia Lin and didn't let him follow. Xia Lin was a little sullen, but after Layue promised to buy him candy, he forgot about his displeasure.

Everyone walked to the gate, but the car had not yet come.

Tian took the eldest girl and the second girl to stand at the back door of the front yard, and the big guy happened to look at each other. Tian didn't mean to come over and speak.

Uncle Xia San and Aunt Xia San were busy greeting Tian across the street and called their sister-in-law very affectionately. Tian reluctantly walked over and talked to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia. She still didn't call her father, she only called the old man and the old lady.

This is extremely rare in the Tian family.

Xia Zhi looked at Tian and was slightly surprised in his heart.
