105. Rumors (I)
After the tea seedlings were planted, Xiao Nan spent the rest of the time patrolling the ground in addition to hunting in the mountains every day, for the hundred acres of tea she exhausted her family wealth not to mention that she owed Xiao Zhen a thousand taels, but there was no room for negligence, in the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed, and there was a spring rain in the middle, and the survival rate of tea seedlings in Xiao Nan's field reached 95%. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, Xiao Nan is not half proud in his heart, this season, the survival rate of flowers and trees is already very high, coupled with the abundant rain this year, it is not uncommon for tea seedlings to have a survival rate of 95%, the difficult thing is that this winter, after the tea seedlings are planted, the winter of the first year is the most difficult, and the winter around Baiyun Mountain is very cold, if there are no good protective measures, the loss will be very amazing.
But now is not the time to worry about this, Xiao Nan has to work hard to make money now, otherwise she can't bear the maintenance costs of the 100 acres of tea garden in the past few years, Song Nuo lived in Xiao's house for more than 20 days, and set off to go back in early April, Xiao Nan sent her all the way to Qingfu Town, with Song Nuo's age and skills, she went back to Song County alone, there is nothing to worry about.
After sending Song Nuo away, Xiao Nan sold the prey in the back basket, turned around and entered a dim sum shop, ready to bring a few snacks back to Xiao Xiao Zhen and Zi Xiu, when he entered the door, he saw two well-dressed women gathered together, talking about something in a low voice, Xiao Nan has never been interested in the gossip of these women, he will not listen to much, after buying dim sum, he will go out.
But at the moment when he didn't want to step out of the threshold, he overheard a sentence coming out of one of them: "Hey, I think that the daughter of the Lin Xiu family was such an outstanding figure when she was not married, but I didn't think that now that her husband has died less than a year ago, she can't keep the empty house......"
Xiao Nan couldn't help but pause when he took the step, and soon heard another person say, "Can't you?" Although Xiao Dalang is just a hunter, he is very capable, not to mention in Sangyu Village, it is the entire Qingfu Town, who mentions Xiao Dalang, don't give a thumbs up? I heard that when he was alive, he had a very good relationship with the Lin family, and I don't know how many people envied him, how could he ...... now?"
"You don't understand this, no matter how good the relationship is, it is only limited to when people are alive, now Xiao Dalang is gone, the Lin family is in its prime, and people are born beautiful, and it is normal to be attracted by bees and butterflies outside, and it is normal to be unable to keep loneliness." The woman who had spoken before said again.
Xiao Nan no longer hesitated when she heard this, and stepped out, firstly, at her age, if people found out that she was listening to gossip here, she would be criticized, and secondly, she didn't want to hear about the Lin family anymore, what she needed to figure out now was where these rumors came from, the first thing she remembered was the Zhu family, after all, more than a month ago, she just forced that family to cut off kinship with her family.
However, this idea was vetoed by her as soon as it began, Zhu and Xiao Juyun knew their own means, and would never dare to go outside to arrange this kind of rumor, as for Xiao Changhe, he didn't like his family anymore, but he was an old man, and it was impossible for him to spread the rights and wrongs of his daughter-in-law out of nothing, since the Zhu family was unlikely, the only thing left was Zhang Da Media, who ran to his house inexplicably at the end of February.
Could it be that because her mother rejected her, she wanted to ruin her mother's reputation? Xiao Nan thought about it, but as soon as this idea came out, she denied it again, that big matchmaker is a famous matchmaker in Qingfu Town, doing this kind of thing, not only does it not do her any good, but it will damage her reputation, any normal person will not do this kind of thankless thing, Xiao Nan twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, he was confused, and turned around and went to Lin Xiucai's house in desperation.
The Lin family is in the town, if there are any rumors in the town, they must know better than themselves, after she arrived at the Lin family, she found that her grandmother Wang was sitting alone at the door sulking, Xiao Nan couldn't help but be surprised when she saw this and asked: "Grandma, who provoked you?" ”
"Who can there be? It's not the long-tongued women in the town who are full of food and have nothing to do, blindly arranging people's rights and wrongs everywhere, and chewing the root of their tongues, they actually say that your mother ......" The annoyed Wang was asked by Xiao Nan and blurted out to answer, but halfway through the words, he remembered that it was Xiao Nan's mother who was arranged by those people outside, and the conversation suddenly stopped.
"But someone arranged my mother's arrangement, didn't she?" Xiao Nan's eyes were cold, and sure enough, this rumor had spread.
"Auntie, listen to me......" Seeing this, Wang's heart tightened, and she hurriedly spoke to appease, she knew that Xiao Nan had always protected the Lin family, if she heard someone arrange the Lin family's bad words like this, she was afraid that she would immediately explode.
"Grandma, don't worry, I won't go to trouble people for no reason, I just heard someone say this outside, so I wanted to come over and ask grandma if she had heard it, if so, it means that this rumor has spread, what we have to do is not to find out the trouble of these rumors, but to find out who is calculating my mother." Xiao Nan said.
Wang was slightly stunned when she heard this, she looked at Xiao Nan quietly for a moment, and then sighed: "Our eldest lady has really grown up, you are right, what we have to do now is to rectify the person who made up the rumors, but where can we find the source of this kind of thing for a while." ”
Xiao Nan thought about it for a while, and then told Zhang Da Media about going to his house at the end of February, Wang frowned after hearing it, she stood up and walked around without going back, before shaking her head and said: "No, the reason why this matchmaker is called the first matchmaker in Qingfu Town is not only because her matchmaker is doing well, Dafan can be made through her mouth, and there has been almost no resentment, but also because her character is good, since your aunt rejected her at that time, she will not talk nonsense everywhere." ”
"Grandma, it's better to be like this, what about you, first go to Zhang Da Media's house and ask who asked her to go to our house to propose marriage that day, let's see if we can use this clue to find out the situation." Xiao Nan lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said.
"Well, this method is good, you wait for me at home for a while, and I'll go to Zhang Damedia." Wang thought about it and felt that what Xiao Nan said was reasonable, and immediately walked out of the courtyard in a hurry.
When Lin Zhi came out of the house, she happened to see the scene when the Wang family went out in a hurry, she looked at Xiao Nan with a stunned face and asked, "Auntie, where is Grandma going?" Didn't she just sit here sulking? Did you go to someone to settle the score? ”
"It's okay, grandma is going to ask someone something." Xiao Nan replied with a smile, Lin Zhi glanced at Xiao Nan with a slight suspicion, and saw that she didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask anymore, Xiao Nan was idle, put the bamboo basket into the house, and went to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden with Lin Zhi.
About half an hour later, the Wang family came back in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Auntie, auntie, come out quickly." Xiao Nan, who was busy in the kitchen with Lin Zhi, heard Wang's shout and immediately walked out, Lin Zhi was curious, and walked out with him. (To be continued.) )
