But in the end, it was none of Xiao Jiu's business, and she never said anything ridiculous after hearing it, let alone expressed sympathy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Aunt Huaihua babbled about the situation in Peach Blossom Village, and Xiao Jiu knew that because of Er Nier's willingness to be a concubine and Xiao Qianqian's elopement, the reputation of the girls in Peach Blossom Village is not very good, and there are few girls who have married out in the past two years.

Xiao Jiu has also experienced regional blackness, and now this situation is really impossible to reverse in a short period of time.

"Most of the people in our village are good, only those who are not good, I believe that other villages are the same, but Peach Blossom Village is unlucky, the matter has been spread, don't worry, auntie, this paper can't contain fire. ”

Xiao Jiu couldn't say anything like driving people out of the village, which was too unkind.

"Auntie knows. Aunt Huaihua smiled, looked at Xiao Jiu and asked, "I saw your grandma walking around the village in the morning, will you come back this time?"

"I came back this time to sweep the grave of my father and mother, and I will leave in a few days. Xiao Jiu said: "Ah Chen is starting to study now, Yan Xi has found him a master, and Yan Xi has a grandmother at home." ”

"There are old people who have to go back to fulfill their filial piety. Aunt Huaihua sighed, looked at Xiao Jiu carefully, and said happily in her heart: "Auntie is also happy to see that you are doing well now! You are a good person, unlike Ernier and Qianqian, who do not have a rich life, but do not accept their fate, but they toss hard, and in the end, they even affect others." ”

"Auntie, don't worry, with my grandma here, I dare to learn badly, my grandma won't spare me first. ”

"That's right, your grandma is the most powerful old lady in our village. ”

After a conversation, Xiao Jiu invited Aunt Huaihua to drink saliva at home, but Aunt Huaihua knew that the Su family brothers were there, so she didn't go in.

Sending away Aunt Huaihua, Xiao Jiu saw Mrs. Xiao cutting a big watermelon with a knife in her hand, and immediately trotted over with a smile.

"Grandma, have you ever been iced?"

"The ice has passed, and I just got it from the well. ”

Xiao Jiu took a spoon out of the stove room, picked up the small half of the watermelon and ate it, and when he bit into it, it was all sweet and cold juice, which made people sigh.

"It's so refreshing. ”

Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but smile and said, "Yanxi asked you to eat less, it's better for you to pick up half a watermelon and eat it." ”

Xiao Jiu bit the watermelon, "It's not much, this watermelon is so small......"

Mrs. Xiao put the cut watermelon slices on the plate, Xiao Chen sat on the side, looked at the plate, and then at Xiao Jiu, "Sister, I want to eat with you too." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Jiu looked down at the watermelon that had been dug out of a big hole by her, and felt that there was not much left, so he directly put the whole half into Xiao Chen's arms, "Since you don't dislike what your sister has eaten, then you can eat it." ”

"I don't dislike my sister. Xiao Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with eating his sister's leftovers, he remembered the incident of eating a piece of watermelon with his sister in the past.

When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she laughed at Xiao Jiu again, "What do you dislike, you two used to gnaw a piece of watermelon, and you only had a layer of green skin left to eat, if I hadn't seen it, you two would have to eat the skin." ”

"Ah......" Xiao Jiu thought about it seriously when the old lady said this, and found that there was really such a thing in his memory, and his eyes widened suddenly.

Xiao Chen frowned, "Watermelon rind is not delicious." ”

"I used to be ignorant. ”

Xiao Jiu felt that it was normal for children to gnaw on watermelon rinds, after all, she had really gnawed them in the past, and she also used watermelon rinds to stir-fry vegetables.

"What about the others?"

Xiao Jiu didn't see anyone for a long time when he came back, so he asked with some curiosity.

"I went down to the ground. ”

Xiao Jiu picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite, and said, "Grandma, where is our land?"

"You want to go and see it?" Mrs. Xiao slowly bit the watermelon and shook the big pu fan.

"I'm going to see how they're growing. ”

He hadn't even been to his own field, and Xiao Jiu blushed a little.

"Let Ah Chen lead you over in a while, and send them watermelons by the way. ”

It's noon, the sun is shining, and the work in the fields is not done, so I basically won't come back.

Xiao Jiu responded, and when Xiao Chen finished eating the watermelon, he put the rest in a bamboo basket, filled a jar of cold white in a ceramic jar, took a few pottery bowls, and went to the ground with Xiao Chen.

Mrs. Xiao went around the village this morning, so at this time, everyone in the village also knew that the Xiao family had returned, and when she saw Xiao Jiu at first glance, she had a much better reaction than when she saw Mrs. Xiao.

Although the weather in Licheng was bad, Xiao Jiu paid great attention to maintenance, he was not tanned at all, and his skin was as white and tender as ever.

In addition, in the past two years, the beauty has not decreased, but there is a special temperament that is indescribable, like standing out from the crowd, without deliberate, you can catch the attention of others at a glance.

Xiao Jiu looks better than before.

This is the truest thought in the hearts of the male villagers who met Xiao Jiu on the road.

Along the way, there were a lot of stunned people, which made Xiao Jiu quite uncomfortable, and always felt that she was dressed inappropriately to attract so many eyes, so her pace was a little faster.

"My sister is good-looking, and they all look at my sister. Xiao Chen didn't like others to look at Xiao Jiu like that, so he pouted a little unhappily.

Xiao Jiu smiled helplessly, "Ah Chen is also good-looking, and many girls will secretly look at Ah Chen in the future." ”

Xiao Chen was not yet old enough to pay attention to his appearance, so he was a little skeptical of Xiao Jiu's words.

The two sisters and brothers walked for a long time, and finally arrived at the Xiao family's land.

The Xiao family's former land was sold for only 20 acres, all of which were rented to others for planting, and it was only after the Su brothers came that the village chief gave them another acre of land to plant, which was just the easiest to survive crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.

The four brothers of the Su family were wearing coarse cloth and short brown and straw hats to weed in the field, Xiao Jiu squinted and looked at it for a while, patted Xiao Chen's head, and said in a low voice: "Go and call the brothers to eat watermelon." ”

"Oh. ”

Xiao Chen listened to Xiao Jiu's words, obediently stepped forward and shouted "brother", and said, "Sister told you to eat watermelon." ”

The Su brothers were waving their hoes in full swing, and they didn't want to hear the sound of a little bean ding, so they looked up one after another, so they saw Xiao Jiu not far away, standing there pretty, carrying a bamboo basket and a clay pot.

It's like being beaten with chicken blood, just now I felt that the heat was unbearable, but now it's cool and refreshing.

"Xiao Jiu'er. ”

The Su brothers threw down their hoes and walked to Xiao Jiu's side, completely forgetting that it was a little radish head who called them just now.

Xiao Jiu put the clay pot on the flat ground, lifted the cotton gauze on the bamboo basket, and said with a smile: "Let's eat a piece of watermelon first, soak it in well water." ”

"Hey, okay. ”

The brothers of the Su family happily picked up the watermelon from the bamboo basket and ate it, their eyes crossed Xiao Jiu's body from time to time, and their hearts were full of joy.
