Chapter 196
Lu Xiaoyi had heard Yu Liang mention it before, but his father did not want him to continue to stay in the dart game, and before his death, he repeatedly told him to return to Shangxi Village, guard the ancestral industry and live an ordinary life, even if he died of poverty and starvation, he was not allowed to set foot in the dart master business again.
Lu Xiaoyi wanted to ask Zhang Tieniu how his father died, but she felt that it was inappropriate, she still hoped that Yu Liang could tell her in person, of course, if he was willing to talk about it, if he didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't force him.
Zhang Tieniu slowly parked the carriage at the gate of Lu's courtyard, Lu Xiaoyi jumped down quickly, looked around at no one, waved at Zhang Tieniu with a smile, and advised: "Uncle Zhang, just know what you just said, don't talk nonsense, especially Uncle Qi and Uncle Xu." Winking at him, "You know! ”
Zhang Tieniu laughed, "Understood! Good Xiaoyi, Uncle Zhang admits your affection, and if you need Uncle Zhang's help in the future, just say hello. After saying that, he smashed the whip and drove away in high spirits.
Lu Xiaoyi still wants to match Su Qing and Zhang Tieniu in her selfish heart, she feels that Qi Shan's age is not suitable, although Xu Wu is good, Zhang Tieniu is not familiar with her, at this time, the distance between relatives is very straightforward, Lu Xiaoyi silently thought about how to mention it to Yulan, after all, Su Qing came on the first day, she wanted to marry someone, which is not kind enough.
Lu Xiaoyi returned to the backyard, and Yulan asked with a smile: "Where are you lazy?" She smiled and replied vaguely, then ran to Xiao Ding's side to pull the dough together, peeking at Su Qing from time to time, and felt more and more that she was a match for Zhang Tieniu.
Lu Xiaoyi has this idea, but it doesn't mean that Su Qing also has this idea, not to mention that she is in a special situation. You can't rush it, you must take your time, observe and observe.
Within a few days, everyone in the village knew that Yulan had invited a distant relative to help bake the cakes, and Lu Xiaoyi wondered, Su Qing hadn't left the door of the courtyard in the past few days, how did the people in the village know? So the whole family was screened by the elimination method, and finally the suspect was set on Mrs. Lu, and she didn't beat around the bush and asked Mrs. Lu directly. "Grandmother. Did you tell the people in the village about Aunt Qing? ”
Mrs. Lu admitted: "Yes, that's what I said." ”
Lu Xiaoyi had a great headache, pressed his temples and asked, "You didn't tell Aunt Qing's life experience, did you?" She was pitiful enough to finally leave the old gossip circle. It was said by the people of our village again. How can she live? ”
Mrs. Lu glanced at her. Reprimanded her: "Don't be a fool to your grandmother!" I know better than you what to say and what not to say! ”
What Mrs. Lu said is reasonable. It seems that she has always been a person who can distinguish between the most important and the most important, Lu Xiaoyi didn't want to argue with her about this, she only cared about her saying that she didn't say anything about Su Qing's life experience, "Grandmother, you really didn't say it?" ”
Mrs. Lu was impatient, "What do you mean?" When your grandmother doesn't have a door on her mouth? What are you talking about? ”
He complained again: "I'll tell you the truth, if I don't annoy the people in the village, I won't bother to say it." Bah! They are all human spirits, seeing that the daughter-in-law of the Liu family is delayed, they all came to me to ask if they want to ask for helpers, I was annoyed to hear it, so I said that your mother invited distant relatives to come, and they blocked their mouths in a word, and my ears fell clean. ”
Mrs. Lu's complaint was very beautiful when she heard Lu Xiaoyi's ears, and she quickly apologized with a smile: "Grandmother, I was wrong, I misunderstood you, I apologize to you, it's better for you to don't care about a lot, right?" ”
Mrs. Lu snorted, dismissing Lu Xiaoyi's apology.
Lu Xiaoyi praised her again: "As the saying goes: old ginger has a spicy taste, and the old man has a lot of experience." Grandmother, you are well-informed and accurate, and your granddaughter has learned a lot of valuable experience from you, and your granddaughter is really grateful! ”
Mrs. Lu smiled: "You, you, are the most painful when you tell the truth!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, but it was worth saying these words for Su Qing, "Grandmother, if someone asks you about Aunt Qing in the future, you will only say that it is my mother's distant relative, and don't say anything else." ”
Mrs. Lu looked strategic, "Don't worry, your grandmother and I are like a mirror in my heart, those long-tongued women will release poisonous arrows in their eyes, and their mouths will spray venom, if I let them know Miss Su's life experience, they will definitely release arrows and poison at Miss Su, and tell Miss Su that I will run away where I will make money!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi was silent, but he didn't expect that the real reason was a few room money, although it was crooked, how could it make people feel crying and laughing! The only thing she feels fortunate about now is that her mother agreed to pay for the house at that time, and Su Qing also agreed, otherwise, what the people in the village said at this time would not be like this.
"Grandmother, you are so smart, these are things that your granddaughter would not have thought of when she was killed." The second half of the sentence is Lu Xiaoyi's big truth.
Mrs. Lu was very useful, and said with a smile: "Learn a little!" Keep it for you for the rest of your life. After saying that, he went briskly to the east house.
In the days that followed, the people in the village no longer talked about Su Qing, because there was more exciting talking point, that is, the boss of the Zhang family, Zhang Gaoming, was beaten up, lying on the kang and wailing, and his daughter-in-law washed her face with tears and ran to the outside of Widow Chen's hospital to make noise, insisting that Widow Chen and the boss of the Yang family compensate for the money.
The people in the village applauded, but everyone who could move around went, of course, the girl's house would not go.
Yulan, Lu Pozi and Wang Dongmei made an appointment to see the excitement, Lu Xiaoyi was stunned, and when she heard that there was a lively and anxious roaring to follow, she was scolded by Yulan and reprimanded her harshly. Lu Xiaoyi was trained, pouting and sitting on the kang and sighing, Su Qing was taking care of Xiaorui on the side, and Xiaoding was teasing Xiaofeng.
Lu Xiaoyi complained: "Look, when I heard that there was a lot of fun, I didn't even care about the children, and they ran faster than rabbits." ”
Su Qing smiled lightly: "Isn't there still us?" ”
"Eldest sister, what you say sounds so sour."
Lu Xiaoyi grinned, "I can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour!" Then he leaned over and grabbed the crawling Xiaofeng and tickled it.
Xiao Feng was itching and giggling, kicking her hands and feet so happily, she shouted sister, and was turned over by Xiao Yi as soon as she turned over.
Xiao Ding hurriedly rescued Xiao Feng, "Sister, don't scratch her, you are afraid of itching, Xiao Feng is also afraid of itching, you don't like to be scratched, Xiao Feng definitely doesn't like it either." ”
Lu Xiaoyi put away his claws and quibbled: "It's good for her to laugh." ”
Seeing Su Qing's faint smile, Lu Xiaoyi said, "Aunt Qing, you should smile more, you look good when you smile." ”
A trace of blush appeared on Su Qing's face, obviously embarrassed, and his faint smile became a little unnatural, muttering: "I'm old, what's not to look at." ”
"Aunt Qing, you're only twenty-five and you're still very young!" Lu Xiaoyi comforted her, but she didn't know that ancient women married early, and twenty-five was no longer young, and there were many women who were fifteen or sixteen married, and by Su Qing's age, the children were no worse than Xiaoding.
Su Qing smiled at Xiao Yi kindly, looked down at Xiao Rui in his arms, his face was very complicated, and finally what was frozen on his face was a faint sadness and slight sourness. Xiao Rui raised his little hand in a timely manner, just raised his hand meaninglessly, and the small fingertips crossed Su Qing's chin, Lu Xiaoyi saw Su Qing's eyes blink, and then buried his head lower, gently held Xiao Rui's hand, coaxed and teased softly, and only after a long time did he raise his head and smile at Xiao Yi: "What a little girl." ”
Lu Xiaoyi said deliberately: "Aunt Qing said that he was a little obedient, but in fact, he was a little rotten egg, and he smelled a lot, so I helped him wash it." ”
"Eldest sister, if you don't want to wash it, change it for me!" Xiao Ding said very seriously.
"No, no, I'll just wash it." Lu Xiaoyi is still thinking about dating Yu Liang!
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoyi let out a long sigh, hey! Since the last time she teased him, the surplus food has never appeared again, Lu Xiaoyi knows that he is ashamed, and it is the kind of shame after being spied into the bottom of his heart, he knew that it would be like this, she should have had a dragonfly at that time, but then he thought that once he opened the first, there would be one and two, hooking up his thoughts, after all, he was the one who suffered!
Yulan and Wang Dongmei came back soon, but Mrs. Lu didn't come back, yes, when she encountered such a big scene, she wouldn't come back if she didn't see it.
Su Qing is not an eventful person, she won't ask Yulan what she sees, but Lu Xiaoyi wants to know, she finds that her gossip heart is getting stronger and stronger, isn't it really affected by Lu Pozi?
Yulan saw Xiaoyi's face and knew that her heart was like a cat's claw, glanced at her, and said: "The girl's family is stable, don't be like those long-tongued women, you want to know everything, you want to inquire about everything!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi was unlucky today, he was reprimanded twice in a row, and said to him with a bitter face: "Mother, I know that I am wrong." ”
Yulan waved at her, "You and Xiaoding go next door to do needlework." ”
Lu Xiaoyi knew that they were definitely going to talk long and short, it was really only allowed for the officials to set fires and not for the people to light the lamps, hmph, I could overhear it next door.
Who knew that after Yulan waited for Lu Xiaoyi to leave, she only talked to Wang Dongmei and Su Qing about some common things, and did not mention Zhang Gaoming and Widow Chen at all.
Lu Xiaoyi pouted and listened to it for a long time, but he didn't hear what he wanted to hear, thinking that it was Yulan who was taboo with Su Qing or the girl's family, and it was inconvenient to say something.
When it was time to bake the cakes in the afternoon, Sister-in-law Hua told Yulan about it, but what she said was plain, not the kind of gimmick that deliberately distorted the facts.
I only heard Sister-in-law Hua say: "The Chen family has stabilized her heart in the past two years, and she has had a good life with the boss of the Yang family. ”
Yulan said with a smile: "Two people living together is to be so down-to-earth, work together, and the heart can rely on each other." ”
Sister-in-law Hua also agreed, "Yes, the boss of the Yang family has the strength to work and the skills to make money, except for being older, being old, and nothing bad, I think the two of them have had a good life in the past two years." ”
"As the saying goes, 'I'd rather look for the old than the young', and when you are older, you know how to be considerate, and your life is comfortable."
Sister-in-law Hua thought of the boss of the Zhang family, and said disdainfully: "There are so many people who don't pee according to their own virtues, but they want to do some bad things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and they deserve to be beaten this time!" If you want me to say, the boss of the Yang family is already very light, if he uses the skill of the knife maker, the Zhang family will be useless. (To be continued.) )
