After everyone had lunch, the fourth grandmother was going to work in the field, because Xu Zhuzi didn't do much farm work, the general things were done by the fourth grandmother herself, Lin Xiao was also bored at home, so she went to the field with the fourth grandmother to help.

In the next few days, Lin Xiao worked in the field in the morning, had a meal at noon, and walked around the fields with Zhou Xiaoxiao in the afternoon, and the days passed quickly.

The strange thing is that Zhou Haibo didn't come to trouble Lin Xiao again, let alone harass Zhou Xiaoxiao, and Xu Zhuzi of the fourth grandmother's family never came back, and there was no news of Jiang Hua from Ningchuan, that is, Lin Xiao's long-awaited killer did not appear, which made Lin Xiao feel a little depressed, and he originally wanted to solve these things so that he could return to Ningchuan.

Another afternoon, the remnant sun was like blood, dyeing the whole sky red, the breeze brought the fragrance of the fields, the air on the path was fresh, Lin Xiao and Zhou Xiaoxiao walked side by side, the two of them had nothing to say, everything that could be recalled had been said, and what could not be said was also said.

Zhou Xiaoxiao also wanted to go to the city early to find a job, after all, it was not a matter to delay in Xujiawan, but who knew that after getting up and having breakfast every day, Lin Xiao was going to work in the field, she wanted to go and see, after returning home at noon, the fourth grandmother cooked, she went out for a walk with Lin Xiao, every time the words came to her mouth, she couldn't speak, and she seemed to enjoy such a day.

She said in her heart to wait another day, but waiting is many days.

"Lin Xiao, when are you going back?"

Lin Xiao glanced at Zhou Xiaoxiao, he didn't have a regular schedule, "I don't know, I'm waiting to see, what about you?" When are you going to look for a job? ”

"I'll wait and see." Zhou Xiaoxiao also learned from Lin Xiao and said.

The two of them were silent again, Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly found that she didn't leave, it seemed that it was because Lin Xiao didn't leave, in fact, she couldn't figure it out, but the simple life of the past few days brought her endless reverie in childhood, sometimes she stood on the ground and watched Lin Xiao pick up the hoe, as if she was back when she was a child, she also took a hoe, Lin Xiao taught her to hoe, the two of them laughed and played, very happy.

The people in the village have also become accustomed to the figure of two people working at the same time, just saying some sour words behind their backs, only the fourth grandmother looked at it and worried in her heart, what are these two people? Not to mention living under one roof, she once saw Zhou Xiaoxiao helping Lin Xiao wash clothes, although it was an outerwear, but how could this be done? It is already a bad custom for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room, some nights, she had dinner at Lin Xiao's house, and after watching the two of them wash the dishes, Zhou Xiaoxiao ran to Lin Xiao's room in her pajamas to chat, which made her shake her head.

The fourth grandmother sighed, she had seen the photos of Lin Xiao's object, and said a few words to Qin Siyu on the phone, what a handsome girl, it would be bad if Lin Xiao was sorry for others.

Seeing Lin Xiao and Zhou Xiaoxiao appear from the entrance of the village, she hurriedly greeted them immediately, and said to Lin Xiao, "Xiao'er, come and do me a favor!" ”

Lin Xiao smiled at Zhou Xiaoxiao, and followed the fourth grandmother to her house.

The fourth grandmother led Lin Xiao to her room and whispered, "What's the matter with you and the girl of the Zhou family?" Are you also dealing with them? ”

"Huh?" Lin Xiao looked at the fourth grandmother in surprise, how could she think of where to go? Quickly explained, "She is only staying at my house for a few days temporarily, we are just ordinary friends!" ”

"Ordinary friends, do they still wash your pants? You have to worry more about these things, how handsome the girl of the Qin family is, she is good to you, you can't let people down! The fourth grandmother said bitterly, in his opinion, Lin Xiao is really a stupid child, and the girl can't see that the girl is interested in you, but she doesn't want to break it up.

If she wants her to see this, she blames Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao gave Zhou Xiaoxiao a good meal, and that Zhou Xiaoxiao also carried a thing called a computer, Zhou Xiaoxiao bought a lot of clothes on it, and I don't know who paid for it, if Lin Xiao paid for it, it would be even worse, you are so good to other girls, no wonder people stay at your house and don't leave.

There are also induction cookers, washing machines, and some household appliances that I bought for myself, but I can't use them, those things have become decorations, and the money I gave Lin Xiao was found to be in her pocket that day, and I don't know when Lin Xiao will return it. Buying things is all with Lin Xiao's hard-earned money, not buying things for her own family, but thinking about her as an old woman, how can she not help Lin Xiao think about it.

Lin Xiao also suddenly came over in his heart, he didn't care about these things these days, every day after he was busy with things in the field, he went out with Zhou Xiaoxiao, there was no entertainment in the countryside, a computer, he didn't play much, it seemed that Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't like it either, so they took a walk.

Remembering that when he was five or six years old, his parents also held his hand and walked through the village road, looking around, he felt that the sun was so beautiful at that time, can he see it every day, and now suddenly there is a woman by his side to accompany him, so after walking for a few days, he also felt warm in his heart, realized the seriousness of the matter, and couldn't help but "huh". In his opinion, Zhou Xiaoxiao is a good girl, but he already has Qin Siyu.

"I see." Lin Xiao smiled bitterly, feeling that the fourth grandmother was more insightful than himself, and he didn't notice it at all these days, and the relationship between the two had reached this point.

The fourth grandmother nodded with satisfaction, "It's good if you understand, sometimes you have to be ruthless, this matter has to be cut through the mess quickly, but don't be soft-hearted because you are afraid of hurting anyone, if the Qin family girl knows about it, how can people not think about it?" ”

Lin Xiao smiled again and echoed, "Well, I understand!" ”

"Then Meng Yao didn't call back in the past two days?" The fourth grandmother was silent for a moment, and then asked.

"She said she would only have a half-day off this week, and she wouldn't come back." Lin Xiao hadn't heard the fourth grandmother ask about Meng Yao for several days, and he had always felt that the fourth grandmother seemed to have something to hide from him these days, but if he asked, the fourth grandmother didn't say anything, he had found all the corners of the house, even Meng Yao's room, he didn't let go, he remembered that Meng Yao used to have some diary habits, but those diaries were gone.

Now he feels even more uncomfortable about his father's affairs, but he also knows the priorities, solve the matter in front of him first, and then go to Meng Yao, the last time he saw Meng Yao want to tell himself, the ugly look on his face, he felt heartache, he didn't want to force his sister who had been relative for many years, that was a person he regarded as more important than life!

"This kid ...... Alas...... Don't talk about it, you go back first, grandma will lie down for a while! The fourth grandmother's face flashed with a hint of wanting to say something, and she picked up her and walked towards the bed.

Lin Xiao nodded, hesitated, and walked towards the door, but as soon as he went out, he saw a anxious figure walking on the road. He stared at it, vaguely remembering the man's name.

"Brother Zhuzi?"

"Who are you?" The person on the other side was obviously stunned, and after approaching, he looked at Lin Xiao carefully.

"I'm Lin Xiao!"

"Oh, Lin Xiao!" Xu Zhuzi looked at Lin Xiao and smiled, "You're going home?" I still have something to do, I'll look for you another day! With that, he walked into his own house.

Lin Xiao looked at the eager look on Xu Zhuzi's face, and immediately walked towards their house, and heard shouts from inside as soon as he entered the door.

"Where is the money?"

"No, the money is all for you to send to that vixen's belly!" The voice of the fourth grandmother came immediately.

Lin Xiao immediately ran to the room, only to see Xu Zhuzi open the mattress and groping under the bed, the fourth grandmother was standing on the ground, with no shoes on her feet, she was stunned and at a loss, he gritted his teeth in anger, reached out and pinched Xu Zhuzi's hand, and shouted, "Brother Zhuzi, what do you want to do?" ”

Xu Zhuzi stared at Lin Xiao, wanting to break free, but he couldn't break free with the power of iron tongs, and then shouted, "Lin Xiao, go away, this is our family matter, don't worry about it!" ”

"Xiao'er, leave him alone, let him find it, there is no money in the house anyway!" The fourth grandmother also came over to pull Lin Xiao, one is her own grandson, and the other is a descendant she values, it's not good to fight, anyway, there is really no money in the family, and Xu Zhuzi won't toss if he can't find it.

Lin Xiao looked at the pleading gaze of the fourth grandmother, let go of her hand angrily, squatted down, and picked up a pair of slippers under the table, "Grandma, you put on your shoes first!" ”

Xu Zhuzi snorted, didn't speak, lifted the mattress and looked for a while, then ran to the cabinet again, looked through it, and threw out all the clothes inside, but after looking for a long time, he didn't see the money, he turned around and shouted, "I heard that you bought a washing machine or something for your home, how can you have no money?" ”

The fourth grandmother was also angry, pointed at Xu Zhuzi and scolded, "That was bought by Lin Xiao, I don't have any money, if you want money, earn it yourself!" ”

"Lin Xiao's money? Who are you fooling? Xu Zhuzi obviously didn't believe his grandmother's words, Lin Xiao and they were just neighbors, why buy them electrical appliances, glared at Lin Xiao, and shouted angrily, "You hurry up and go home!" ”

Lin Xiao stood in place and looked at Xu Zhuzi coldly, he didn't speak, just clenched his fists, if he hadn't seen the fourth grandmother here, he would have to beat this unscrupulous descendant.

Xu Zhuzi saw that no one paid attention to him, and followed to look for it in other places, and after a while, the kung fu room was in a mess, looking at the clothes all over the ground, the fourth grandmother cried bitterly, and scolded in her mouth, "Evil, my old Xu family is evil!" ……”

Lin Xiaoqiang held back his anger and reached out to press Xu Zhuzi's shoulder, "Get out!" ”

"Get out, don't bother me!" Xu Zhuzi leaned over a large wooden cabinet, his hands were playing with it indiscriminately, and suddenly laughed, took out a wooden box from it, and said loudly, "I found the money, and I said that there was no money!" As he spoke, he shook his body, glanced at Lin Xiao, and ran to the fourth grandmother with the wooden box in his arms, "Where's the key?" Give me the key! ”

Lin Xiao was also stunned, he let go of Xu Zhuzi's hand, not because Xu Zhuzi was powerful, but because he seemed to have seen that wooden box somewhere.

When the fourth grandmother saw the wooden box, she immediately screamed and scolded sharply, "You rabbit cub, why did you turn this thing out?" There's no money in it! Inadvertently, he glanced at Lin Xiao lightly, and reached out to snatch the wooden box.

Xu Zhuzi naturally didn't give it, his strength must be much greater than that of his grandmother, and he just pushed his grandmother, but a pair of big hands pinched the wooden box and pulled it from his hand.

Lin Xiao held the fourth grandmother with one hand, and the wooden box with the other, and checked carefully, this is their family's thing, this wooden box is a plaything that his father took him to the city to play and bought back when he was in the second grade of primary school, in fact, there is nothing in it, it is a good-looking box! But how could it be at the fourth grandmother's house?

"What are you doing? This is our family stuff, give it back to me! Xu Zhuzi immediately screamed and reached out to grab it.

Lin Xiao pinched the wooden box and reached over and hit Xu Zhuzi's wrist.

Xu Zhuzi screamed in pain, pinched his wrist and took a few steps back, looked at Lin Xiao and was even more angry, glanced at his grandmother again, and immediately ran out of the door.

"Laugh! You ......" the fourth grandmother sighed, tears welling up.
