Xu Xiangwan looked at the two of them carefully, and saw that although the two of them were wearing patched clothes, they were cleanly washed, their hair was not messy, and the whole person looked fresh and neat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Look at Chen Da again, about forty years old, tall, dark skin, Chinese face, good facial features, eyes with a god, looking at a righteous spirit. The eldest daughter-in-law Chen next to her, although she is a little petite, but her appearance is upright, her eyes are clear, and she is a cool woman at first glance.

The couple saw Zhang and Xu Xiangwan looking over, although they were a little restrained, but they were also generous and allowed to be looked at, their eyes were open, and they did not dodge or evade at all.

Seeing that the two of them were indeed not much different from what Shopkeeper Feng introduced, Zhang and Xu Xiangwan glanced at each other, and both smiled and nodded.

The husband and wife saw that the Zhang family was kind and kind, and they wanted to get along well, and they were also a little willing in their hearts.

Introduced by the shopkeeper Feng, it was finally decided that each person would have a monthly salary of 100 yuan, and the food and accommodation were all in Xu Xiangwan's house, and the two only needed to do the work in the field.

The monthly salary of 100 wen per month is medium, and most helpers at this time are at this price, but for women, they can generally only get sixty or seventy wen, so the price given by Xu Xiangwan's family is kind.

Xu Xiangwan also explained carefully to Chen and his wife that their family has 20 acres of land, and there are only women and children in the family, and they can bear the housework themselves, but the 20 acres of land depends on the husband and wife.

Chen Da and his wife patted their chests and assured that Xu Xiangwan's family could rest assured, maybe they didn't dare to say anything else, but for the croppers who have been digging in the soil since they were young, farming is what they are best at.

Shopkeeper Feng also praised Chen Da on the side, saying that there is little land in the Chen family, and their husband and wife have always been one of the best farmers in the village, otherwise they would have relied on their family's few acres of land, and I am afraid that they would not be able to support such a large family for a long time.

Xu Xiangwan looked at their hands, they were indeed rough and sturdy, and they should be used to farm work.

Both sides agreed, and Chen and his wife just happily said that they would go home and explain some things, so that their children could take care of the old and weak, and they would come to Xujia Village tomorrow.

I didn't expect to find a helper so smoothly, Xu Xiangwan and Zhang's were also relieved, and they were also happy in their hearts, and they were also satisfied that Chen and his wife would be able to go to work tomorrow.

The matter was decided, and after Xu Xiangwan thanked the Zhang family and the Feng shopkeeper, they left the Chunfeng Restaurant.

When they came out, it was already Shen Shi, and the mother and daughter went to the cotton mill in Dongshi to buy a few quilts, and happened to rent an ox cart from the mule and horse market on the side and went back to Xujia Village together.

Back in Xujia Village, Xu Xiangwan saw a lot of people gathered at the door of his house, his eyelids jumped, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

Zhang's secret was also not good, and his heart suddenly beat wildly.

"Mother, don't worry, if something happens in a while, don't squeak, let me come." It's just Xu Zhili and they came to make trouble, although Gorou just went to Fucheng today, Xu Xiangwan won't be afraid of them.

Zhang's eyes were full of worry, but he didn't have the cowardice he had in the past, and now that Gorou has gone to Fucheng, the family can only rely on her to support them, and they can't let the children be wronged anymore.

The ox cart slowly drove into Xujia Village, Xu Xiangwan asked the coachman to stop at the entrance of the village, and went to Xu Wenfu's house with the quilt with Zhang.

"Ouch, Zhibang's daughter-in-law, you're back!" As soon as Feng saw Zhang's mother and daughter, he quickly let the two into the house and brought two stools for them to sit down.

Xu Xiangwan asked Feng to help find a place to put down the quilt, and asked, "Grandma, just now I saw that there were many people gathered at the entrance of our house at the entrance of the village, and my mother and I were so scared that we didn't dare to go home, what are you doing?" ”

Feng Shi frowned and glanced at Zhang, sighed deeply, his mouth opened, but he didn't say a word for a long time.

Xu brought two bowls of sugar water and handed them to Zhang and Xu Xiangwan, touched Xu Xiangwan's head with pity, sighed and said to Zhang: "Brother and sister, I have suffered you all these years." ”

Seeing that Feng and Xu were both eager to speak and stopped, and their faces were also very strange, Xu Xiangwan secretly said in his heart, isn't it that things are not as simple as he imagined, not only those people in the upper room who came to make trouble?

"Grandma, auntie, aren't they my uncle and third uncle who go to my house?" Xu Xiangwan was worried, but his face was not obvious, but he asked Feng and Xu with a smile.

Seeing Xu Xiangwan smiling innocently, Feng couldn't bear it, and his eyes were a little red.

"What kind of sin has been created!" Feng shook his head, turned his face and began to wipe his tears.

Looking at this posture, even if Zhang was confused, he knew that this time the matter might not be so easy to solve, and he was worried and anxious for a while: "Auntie, sister-in-law, what's going on?" ”

Xu Shi saw that Feng Shi began to sob, his eyes were also a little red, and he said angrily: "What else can it be?" It's not just that her father, who she hasn't seen for many years, is back! ”

Sure enough, I was worried about this a few days ago, but even if I came to the door today, after Xu Xiangwan knew that it was about Xu Zhibang, her heart was settled.

It was Zhang, as soon as he heard that Xu Zhibang was back, his face turned white in an instant, his body shook, and he almost slipped off the stool.

Seeing this, Xu hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang, rested his hand on her shoulder, and patted comfortingly: "Brother and sister, don't be afraid, as long as you have a conscience, you will be directed towards you." ”

Feng wiped away his tears and asked angrily, "Later, you already know this?" ”

Xu Xiangwan obediently jumped off the stool, threw herself into Feng's arms, grabbed her sleeves, wiped Feng's eyes, and said angrily: "Big grandma, in the first month, our family happened to meet him when we went to Ganquan County to see the lanterns, and he was accompanied by a little lady, who was still pregnant, and called him 'Xianggong'." My mother was so angry that she vomited blood on the spot, and she just got better! ”

I thought my father was a good one, but I didn't expect that the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, those brothers were all general goods, and none of them were good! Xu Xiangwan wished that his family would never have such a father at this time, so it was naturally impossible to call Xu Zhibang "father", and only replaced it with the word "he".

Feng Shi shook his head after hearing this, and sighed: "I didn't expect it, Zhibang looks like a good child, how can he be so unreliable!" In the past few years, it has not been easy for your mother and son, and I thought that you would be better when Zhibang came back, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this. ”

"Grandma, what is he going to do when he comes to our house?" Xu Xiangwan is most concerned about the purpose of Xu Zhibang's visit to their house, first knowing that he knows the other, so that he can find a countermeasure.

Xu Shi knew this more clearly, so he replied: "I also listened to what your uncle said about this, saying that the Zhibang brothers brought back a daughter-in-law, saying that they were a flat wife, and they were still pregnant with a child in their stomachs, and now they were about to give birth.
