Chapter 36 (Origin 2)

The winter wind is always cold, and you can feel the biting pain of the wind blowing on your face just by standing outside. So it's great to have a sip of hot soup and bake it around the stove on a day like this.

Of course, in the south, most people do not build fireplaces, and even if there are very few, it is pitiful, and it is said that this thing did not appear in the north at the earliest, but spread to Dachu from Luo Lieguo on the northern side of Xinjiang a long time ago. Fortunately, no matter how cold the weather in the south is, it will not exceed minus 5 degrees Celsius. Naturally, this thing is not needed.

Although it is the day of returning home, after all, it is still in this rural place, and everyone does not pay too much attention to it except for eating and drinking, of course, it is also because they can't pay attention to it. And in order to celebrate the arrival of Bai Cuicui and his wife, the Lu family made careful preparations.

The large round table was filled with all kinds of dishes, including three bowls of meat alone, and a large pot of fresh fish soup. And this fish is not easy to catch in winter, and the price is naturally much more expensive than that bowl of braised button pork.

"Mother, you are really, didn't you say that you can do it casually, why are you so expensive." Bai Cuicui took the plate of vegetables handed by the Lu family, looked at the bowls of meat and vegetables on the table distressedly, and couldn't help whispering to the Lu family.

"Since you're distressed, then don't eat it, maybe you can save some and save it for the next meal." Bai Dongye can't see her eldest sister like this dead look, since she feels sorry for the money and has the ability, don't eat it, but in the end, don't you still eat something delicious, what kind of garlic is it, hum, hypocrisy!

Seeing that the second daughter started to stir up trouble again, Lu couldn't help frowning and slapped her on the head, and scolded: "You can't stop your mouth if you can't eat, right, then let me go back to the house." ”

Bai Dongye was eating well, but she was beaten by her mother, if she had changed it, she would have made a fuss before, but for today's meal, she had to endure it even if she was angry, otherwise everything would be eaten by others, then she herself would not be at a loss, not to mention that it was rare for her own family to have such a sumptuous dish as today, so she could only glare at Bai Cuicui fiercely, and bury her head in eating.

As for Bai Cuicui, she didn't care when she saw her cheap second sister glaring at her, anyway, this girl didn't target herself for a day or two. Originally, she tried to get along with Bai Dongye amicably, but since people didn't appreciate it, she didn't have a reason to catch up with her. Now as long as she doesn't deliberately find fault, then she can't be regarded as if she didn't see it.

"By the way, mother, do you know what happened to the second uncle's house? How do you need so much money. Bai Cuicui sat next to Lu and turned to her and asked.

"What good thing can be, it's not that his two good sons somehow actually learned that they owe a lot of debts, and now that the creditors have come to the door, they naturally have to find a way." When Lu heard his eldest daughter ask this, he couldn't help but stop his chopsticks and said nervously: "Why did they go to you to borrow money?" You didn't lend them it, did you? ”

"Do I look like that?" Bai Cuicui couldn't help but complain when she saw her mother's panicked look.

"Okay, I said you can't do both? Look at your pout, you can hang the oil bottle. Lu glanced at his eldest daughter with disgust, tapped her forehead with his finger, and warned: "Since you are also married, give me some brains, you will believe what other people say, have you heard it?" ”

"Got it, mother." Bai Cuicui couldn't help answering.

"It's good that you know. If the people of the Lao Bai family come to you again in the future, no matter who it is, you don't have to promise them anything, understand? Seeing that the eldest daughter nodded, Lu continued to explain.

Bai Cuicui was still eating while nodding her head to deal with her mother, but when she heard that, she couldn't help but hurriedly asked without swallowing her meal: "You mean 'whoever it is'?" Could it be that in addition to the second uncle and two aunts, will my grandparents still come to me? Bai Cuicui didn't miss the prudence in Lu's words just now, so naturally she wouldn't simply think that she was referring to only Bai Dagui and his wife.

"Although your grandmother is eccentric, they haven't gotten to the point where the Han family is making trouble. I'm telling you to be careful of your little sister-in-law. Lu shook his head at his eldest daughter and said.

"You mean little sister-in-law? How is it possible, just the honest appearance of the little aunt, since even the second aunt and they didn't borrow money from me, how could grandma let her come? Bai Cuicui said in surprise.

"Who told you that she came to borrow money?" Lu sandwiched a piece of meat for his daughter and asked rhetorically.

"I'm telling you to be careful of your little sister-in-law. Although this incident seems to be caused by the two brothers Dalong and Huzi on the surface, they are also grown up by me, although these two children are lazy and slippery on weekdays, but they don't have the courage to gamble. Unless someone lures them in. ”

Bai Cuicui was really taken aback, and couldn't help but widen her eyes and asked in surprise: "Mother, are you saying that the little sister-in-law is doing ghosts here?" But she usually looks so docile and honest, it's unlikely. ”

"Haven't you heard what 'a dog that bites doesn't bark', what kind of person is she Li, maybe I didn't know when she first married into the Bai family, but I've been getting along for so many years, if she is round or flat, if I don't know, then it's so big for nothing." As soon as the Lu family heard the words of the eldest daughter, he couldn't help but snort mockingly and continued, "That is, the fool of the Xiao Gao family thinks that she Li is easy to bully, if you want me to say where there is such a coincidence, as soon as people collect debts, her Li family just took her daughter back to her parents' house, if it weren't for that, who is now abducted, it may be whose daughter it is." ”

"Mother is saying that Dongzhi was taken away?" Bai Cuicui guessed.

"Otherwise, why do you think the little Gao clan is so eager to borrow money everywhere? It's not like you've been forced to run out of ideas. Lu said disapprovingly.

"But why?"

As soon as the Lu family heard this and asked, he was immediately laughed at by the eldest daughter's innocent appearance: "Oh, I said that the daughter, alas, the mother should say that you are stupid or too naΓ―ve, of course it is natural to repay the debt, where is there so much why." ”

Bai Cuicui was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and she also felt that she was taking it for granted, after all, it is not the modern society under the rule of law that pays attention to human rights, how can she compare the two.

"What should I do with Dongzhi, is it true that I want to sell it to others to pay off my debts? And why would the little sister-in-law do this, if she wants to split up, there is no need to do this, so what can she get? Bai Cuicui's mind was now in a mess, so she asked Lu Shi in confusion.
