Chapter 35: The Root of the Tongue

When Fox Xiaomei came home, only the fox fence was there, and she told the fox fence about going to the school, and the fox fence opened her eyes wide in surprise, twisted her eyebrows, grinned, and seemed to be smiling but not laughing, as if crying but not crying. He spoke in a hurry: "Second sister, you, you, are really amazing, you still have this ability." But why would the gentleman of the academy promise you? ”

Fox Xiaomei glanced at him: "What are you talking about?" You've been at home for a few days, and it's time to go to school. Moreover, Sir has said that if you do it again next time, you will not be spared, and of course, your review will be carefully seen tonight, and if there is anything wrong, you will definitely show it to Sir tomorrow. ”

The fox fence's whole face wrinkled into bitter melon, and he complained to the fox Xiaomei: "...... Why don't you let me rest for a few more days! ”

Hu Xiaomei didn't even raise her eyebrows, put the two meat buns she bought on the table, and instructed him: "If I don't come back after a while, you can cook first." Then he went out.

Fox Fence is still in the vegetable patch, and she needs to see if there is anyone who needs help.

When I walked outside Zhang's house, I heard someone talking in the courtyard.

“…… Sure enough, it was a family, but I didn't expect the eyes to be the same. "This is the voice of Zhou, the wife of Fox Fence Shuo.

"Did you hear me right? How is it possible to fancy the same family? Mei's voice was slightly questioning, and his tone was a little disbelieving.

Zhou's is cheerful, he likes to talk on weekdays, and he doesn't pay much attention to the subtleties when he does anything, but at home, he is often pressed by his mother-in-law Tan, and her husband is filial piety, as long as it is not too excessive, she follows her mother's words, so in front of Tan, Zhou's words always have to be careful.

When she went outside, she was not pressed by her mother-in-law, so she naturally spoke loudly. Hearing that Mei didn't believe what he said, he immediately said: "Don't believe it, the whole village will know about this in less than two days." Then he stretched his neck, looked cautiously at the gate of the courtyard, there was no one, lowered his voice, and said, "I heard what my mother-in-law said." ”

The fox outside raised her eyebrows, and walked along the wall towards the door of Zhang's courtyard as if nothing happened.

After marrying Zhang Yun, in order to please Mei's family, Zhang Yun found a way to turn out a long piece of land on the side of the wall in the yard, and built it with stones, surrounded by a flower grape, and planted several kinds of flowers in it. Although it does not bloom at this time, there are several evergreen trees inside.

This evergreen tree was accidentally discovered by Zhang Yun when he went to the mountain, not to mention that this Mei family is a country woman, but he knows a lot about flowers and plants, so he asked Zhang Yun to transplant a few evergreen trees at that time.

Therefore, when Mei has nothing to do, he always likes to sit on a stool by the flowers.

At this time, listening to the voices of the two of them, they should be sitting not far from the wall, so that Hu Xiaomei can hear the words inside clearly.

"Two days ago, my third aunt and mother-in-law Wang from Weijia Village went to the town to visit Liyun, and it happened that my mother-in-law happened to be bumped into at that time. Guess which family you're talking about? Zhou put his son next to the bench, followed Mei's example and let the child touch the stool by himself, and then approached Mei's with a mysterious expression.

Mei Shi usually takes the children, how can he have time to go to the three aunts and six mothers-in-law to make up, and shook his head.

Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "You may know, it is the Zhang butcher shop that sells meat in the market, and many people in our village like to buy meat from his house." ”

Mei was stunned: "Zhang's butcher's shop?" Some don't believe it, Fox Liyun looks gentle and graceful, but in fact, he is arrogant in his bones, and he doesn't look like a person who will take a fancy to a meat boy.

Zhou didn't know what she was thinking, and when she heard it at first, she didn't believe it, so she said, "It should be my third aunt who took a fancy to it." Then he pouted: "It's just a meat seller, a girl who looks so good, and I don't know what her mother likes about the Zhang family." ”

Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages, Mei Shi doesn't like to talk about people's shortcomings, only said: "Everyone has a good side, and this person's preferences are different, the Zhang family kid has his own place where he is favored." Changing the subject: "What does this have to do with what you said?" ”

Zhou looked at her, pursed his lips and laughed: "I said it so obviously, you haven't thought of it?" ”

The tone of voice made Mei a little displeased.

Zhou didn't feel that what he said was inappropriate, and continued: "Old man Zhang also agreed at that time, saying that he would discuss it with his son, after all, this is his son's lifelong event. Later, Mrs. Wang inquired in the neighborhood, and it turned out that the Zhang family had other people looking at each other earlier, so they didn't agree immediately. ”

"This is all from the mouth of my mother-in-law...... As a result, yesterday, guess whose house did Mrs. Wang go to? ”

Mei shook her head.

"Fox Fence Xiang Family!"

Although Zhou lowered his voice, Hu Xiaomei could still hear it standing outside the wall, and Mei's voice of disbelief was also clearly heard.

Fox Xiaomei slowly narrowed her beautiful big eyes, Zhou's usually looks calm and refreshing on the surface, but in fact, he is also a person who loves to say right and wrong. She is most annoyed by this kind of person, her mother is worried about what to do if someone knows about going to see Zhang San, and sure enough, someone will know.

The most hateful thing is that the Tan family is nosy, there is nothing to do all day long, and she loves to fight with her mother on weekdays, now that she is good, she will definitely make this matter so that the whole Hujia Village knows about it before she stops, and it is not easy for her to find a daughter-in-law.

Fox Xiaomei scolded in her heart, and was thinking about how to make Zhou no longer speak, when she suddenly heard footsteps from behind, Fox Xiaomei squatted down, picked up a branch next to her and began to pick up the mud on the side of her shoes, and at the same time looked down at the back, it was Mei's mother-in-law, Xianglan.

Xianglan is forty years old this year, she was a beauty in the village when she was young, and now she is older and has no beauty when she was young, but she is full of charm, plus she pays attention to dressing up on weekdays, dressing in general but the whole person is refreshing and refreshing, and she is also meticulously cleaned up, so she entered the kitchen of a big silver building in the town to help cook.

Coincidentally, Xianglan didn't go to work today, so she went to the market early in the morning to buy some fresh fruits and meat, and saw a person squatting outside the wall of her house from a distance.

Wet sludge stained the edges of the shoes everywhere, and the branches were removed at most, and the sludge that remained on them could not be scraped off.

Xianglan laughed silently when she saw it, the little girl shaved seriously, and she was afraid of scaring her, so she first reached out and patted Fox Xiaomei's shoulder, and then whispered: "How can you clean it like this?" ”

Even so, it scared Hu Xiaomei.

Fox Xiaomei let out a big breath and slapped her chest continuously.

Xianglan hurriedly comforted her, blamed herself again and again, and apologized: "Oops, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my aunt is not good, I scared you." ”

Hu Xiaomei patted her chest, her heart palpitated, she smiled reluctantly, and whispered: "It's none of your business, it's me who shaved too seriously, and I didn't pay attention to the people coming behind." ”

Seeing that she was really fine, Xianglan breathed a sigh of relief, Fox Xiaomei has been timid since she was a child, if she is really scared, she can't afford to take this responsibility, and said with an apologetic smile: "Go to the house and sit, the eldest lady will pour you a bowl of water and suppress the shock." ”

"It's not that serious." Fox Xiaomei smiled, and her voice was small and soft: "I can't blame you." He also turned upside down to comfort Xianglan: "Auntie, I'm fine, you're busy with you, I'm going to find my sister." ”

Xianglan felt that although this girl was a little timid, she was quite sensible, and praised her with a smile.
