Chen Xueru saw that Li and the others were back, put the cabbage in her hand next to the well platform, wiped her eyes, and didn't want people to cry. Then he smiled at Li and the others, went into the house and took a basin for his uncle Li Yuntian to scoop water and wash his hands.

Li was talking to Li Yuntian about planting wheat, but he didn't find anything unusual about Chen Xueru. While talking to Li Yuntian, Li thought to himself that his eldest daughter has always been a thoughtful person, why don't she cook when they come back from the field today, I wanted to talk about her, but in front of outsiders, I always want to save face for her.

As soon as Chen Xuejiao entered the door, she found that Chen Xueru was crying, and the careful Wang Jinghao also found out, and the two of them glanced at each other, and they had a plan in their hearts.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Chen Xuejiao squatted beside Xueru and washed her hands.

"I didn't ...... It's not ......," Chen Xueru said softly, her eyes flickering.

Chen Xueru has a soft temperament, but she is afraid that she will be idle at home. Today, Mrs. Chen, Zhao, and Cai stay at home to cook, and Cai's can't make Chen Xue angry, that is Mrs. Chen and Zhao.

"Sister, what the hell are you doing?" Chen Xuejiao asked anxiously.

Chen Xueru faced her sister's concern, and the tears in her eyes tried her best to hold back, unwilling to speak.

Chen Xuejiao looked at Li Yuntian and Li Dazhuang and Li Danian's two cousins who were washing their hands and wiping their faces not far away, knowing that Chen Xueru was tender and embarrassed to say, so she and Wang Jinghao dragged her into the room together.

"Sister, tell me the truth, are you being bullied at home?" Chen Xuejiao's eyes were cold.

"Sister Xueru, what the hell is going on, you want to kill us in a hurry." The quiet that has always been quiet is also anxious.

Chen Xueru gritted her teeth, tears rolled down like a broken embankment, and she was afraid that Chen Xiucai would hear it, so she had to bite her lips tightly.

After a while. She just described what had happened.

At noon, Chen Xueru went to the field to deliver food and came back, and saw that the fourth aunt Zhang had come back from the field in advance, and she also brought two and three eggs.

Chen Xueru was in a hurry to deliver food to Li and others who were working in the field, so she didn't have time to eat her lunch, and she didn't collect the noodles of the pancakes in the pot house.

Zhang went into the kitchen and looked around. He pulled out the white flour left over from the snow like pancakes, made the noodles and baked the cakes himself, fried the vegetables with the lard of the big house, and ate them with his two sons.

Chen Xueru went to the pot house to eat, and found that Zhang's was eating a mouth full of oil. Then I saw that the small bag of noodles I had put on the board was gone, and half of the lard was gone. Chen Xueru looked at the pancake in front of Zhang and understood what was going on.

This noodle is a white noodle given by my grandmother's family, and I am usually reluctant to eat it, but this time I took it out to entertain my uncle, but I didn't expect that Zhang ate half of it. Chen Xueru stepped forward to theorize. Zhang didn't admit it, but said that Chen Xueru lied and asked Chen Xueru to prove that the noodles were in the big house, but of course Chen Xueru couldn't confirm it, so Zhang falsely accused Chen Xueru of stealing the noodles in the house.

Chen Xue was speechless with anger.

It just so happened that at this time, Gu Siyuan and Huang Sanlang came to the house to see Chen Xiucai, and Chen Xueru did not continue to worry about Zhang.

Gu Siyuan and Huang Sanlang entered the North Wing and talked to Chen Xiucai about two teas. Chen Xueru sent the two sons out, and Gu Siyuan took a bag of silver and handed it to her. She didn't want to push it. After pushing and letting go, she met Chen Xuemiao who came back from the field, and Chen Xuemiao saw Chen Xueru standing with the two sons. glared at her fiercely and entered the courtyard.

After sending the two sons away, Chen Xueru returned to the pot house to pack up her things. Seeing that Zhang's beckoned Chen Xuemiao to eat cakes, Chen Xueru distinguished: "Fourth aunt, this noodles were sent by my grandmother's family, and the fourth aunt said that I stole the upper room." ”

Without waiting for Cai's accompaniment, Chen Xuemiao spat at Chen Xueru: "Shameless." You're embarrassed to say that you even stole from people, so how can you dare not steal. ”

Chen Xueru was stunned, it was the first time that she had been slapped in the face when she was small to big, and she was adding what Chen Xuemiao said. She was even more sluggish.

Stealing people? These words are all words used by the spicy women in the township, Rao is Chen Xueru raised in the boudoir, and she also knows that this is not a good word.

“…… What do you say? Chen Xue trembled with anger.

"I'll just say you're shameless, you steal people. You still don't admit it, in broad daylight, you and the two sons are pushing at the door, isn't it stealing? Chen Xuemiao pointed at Chen Xueru and snorted contemptuously.

Zhang clapped his hands next to him and laughed: "I see that Xue Ru has reached the age of saying goodbye, your mother can be relieved now, and you have provoked two noble sons quietly." I said why these two noble sons came to our house if they were fine, it turned out that they had taken a fancy to you. ”

Chen Xueru is her daughter's family in the end, where have she heard such words, she was angry and cried on the spot, and she was afraid that Chen Xiucai would hear it, so she didn't dare to reason loudly.

"Xue Miao, I'm your cousin, you say I'm ...... for no reason," Chen Xueru cried and defended, "They came to see my father." ”

When Chen Xuemiao heard this, she pushed Chen Xueru hard, and suddenly pushed her to the board, and Chen Xueru scratched a piece of skin on her arm.

Chen Xuejiao listened to Chen Xueru's cry, and her part-time job exploded her lungs. Wang Jinghao pulled open Chen Xueru's sleeve, only to see that his arm was red.

"Do grandma and second aunt know?" Chen Xuejiao asked.

"Yes." Chen Xueru cried even more fiercely, "My grandmother and second aunt also said that I was immoral." The second aunt came to persuade her, but the second aunt said that the second aunt didn't understand the rules. ”

"There's still a little bit of humanity that doesn't matter, so it's my daughter." At some point, Li was already standing at the door.

It turned out that Li was called over by Cai's just now and reversed the original thing. Li wanted to ask Xue Ru clearly, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard what had happened, and let her be generous, and at this time, he also wanted to eat Zhang and Zhao alive.

The Li family was about to go to them to talk, but Xue Jiao followed, she was afraid that the Li family would suffer. As soon as I wanted to go to the north wing to find Zhang's, I saw Zhang's entering the pot house, and at this time, Mrs. Chen, who was in the upper room, was taking Zhao's to cook dinner, and it happened that Chen Xuemiao was also there.

Chen Xuejiao saw Zhang's killing demeanor for the first time.

Zhang entered the pot house and slapped Zhang first, without saying a word.

"You hit me?" Zhang was slapped inexplicably, and before he could react, the other half slapped his face again.

"If I beat you, I will beat you, you stole my noodles and ate them into your mouth, got boils, rotten your mouth, and said such heartless words. My family is like an innocent girl's family, what can you say? ”

Zhang's usual thoughts. When it came to the actual combat occasion, she was a woman who was very inward-looking, and when she saw Li's bloodthirsty appearance at this time, she lost her soul in fright. Sitting on the ground and howling: "You hit me, you hit me." ”

Old Mrs. Chen and Zhao were also stunned, and they forgot to speak for a while.

Li left Zhang and walked into the board. grabbed Chen Xuemiao, who was standing in front of the board, opened the bow left and right and slapped him twice, knocking Chen Xuemiao to the ground, and her eyes were full of stars.

"This slap of mine makes you know what it means to be respectful and inferior, and to be orderly between young and old." Li Shi had a cold face and slapped his face, "Xue Ru is your cousin, you only have to obey her, and there is no reason to insult her." Even your father and mother have to pay tribute to the big house. You are a junior who has repeatedly said bad things to our big house, is it possible that the rule that your mother taught you is to let you insult your cousin and contradict your elders. ”

It is worthy of following Chen Xiucai for so many years, and Li's words are quite artistic. After all, it is disgraceful to argue with a junior about whether his daughter steals people, and Li cleverly said that Chen Xuemiao insulted her cousin and collided with the big house.

Chen Xueru covered her cheeks, not believing that Li would beat her, and glared at Li angrily.

"Ouch, sister-in-law. Why don't you enter the house and beat someone without saying a word......" Zhao, who was sitting in front of the stove and burning the fire, reacted and said distressedly.

Lee didn't speak. One walked to the door of the stove, grabbed Zhao's hair, opened the bow left and right, and slapped it down twice.

Zhao was stunned, and Mrs. Chen's eyes widened even more, and the noodles in her hands fell to the ground.

"You are embarrassed to say that it is Xue Miao's mother, and I am ashamed of you for raising such a girl who doesn't know the rules. Who taught those abusive words? Xue Miao is so small. Maybe it's you who taught you as a mother, I beat you today instead of my father and mother, and you taught a good girl badly. Li pointed at Zhao and reprimanded.

Everyone in the pot house knew why the Li family beat them.

Seeing that Li beat Xue Miao and beat Zhao in front of Mrs. Chen, Zhang quietly got up from the ground. I didn't dare to cry.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, what are you doing, I'm not dead yet, you beat people in front of me." Mrs. Chen was the first to understand and accused Li loudly.

"Milk, you're too old to take care of some things. The fourth aunt stole my family's noodles today, if you don't teach it, you can steal other people's things, Sister Xue Miao insulted her cousin and confronted my mother today, if she didn't teach her in the future, she would be able to insult her grandmother, and the second aunt taught Sister Xue Miao to say bad things, if she didn't reprimand her, she could teach Sister Xue Miao to kill people in the future. Milk is the time to enjoy the blessings, and you have to worry about these things, my mother is to solve the trouble for you. Chen Xuejiao had a sense of happiness in her heart, and explained to Mrs. Chen.

Zhao covered his face and cried, and Chen Xuemiao also cried.

Li Yuntian heard the movement of the pot house, although this was a matter in the inner courtyard of the Chen family, he was not good at interfering, but he was afraid that his sister would suffer, so he stood at the door of the pot house and listened to the movement.

Chen Xueru, Chen Qi'an, Wang Jinghao, and Chen Qiping also poured into the pot house to give the Li family a strong momentum.

Chen Qi'an's face was blue, he had already heard Jing Hao describe the matter, and he also thought that the Li family had fought well.

“…… You girl, you keep saying that Xue Miao bumps into Xue Ru, and you don't respect your mother, why did you bump into me. Mrs. Chen clapped her hands and showed signs of spilling.

Chen Xuemiao saw that Mrs. Chen was supporting herself, and the courage of being beaten down by the Li family was fat again, and she jumped and rushed towards the Li family: "You hit me, you beat me." ”

Chen Xuejiao and Wang Jing went up and dragged left and right.

"Snow is as ...... as her" Chen Xuemiao just wanted to say the word "stealing people", but Chen Xuejiao had already fished out a piece of red charcoal from under the stove: "You are howling, I will stuff your mouth." ”

Chen Xuemiao closed her mouth, and Zhao looked at Xuejiao in surprise.

"Don't make me say nice things." Chen Xuejiao glanced at everyone coldly, walked to Zhao's side and whispered, "Last time in Qingfengzhuang, I saw Sister Xueyao being picked up by the carriage of the Ding Mansion, by the way, Uncle Ding was also in the carriage at that time. ”

Zhao was frightened when he heard this. Although Xue Yao wrote to her that Layue went home to embroider a wedding dress and carried her from home to Dingfu as a good concubine, if the old lady of Dingfu knew that she had a private meeting with Uncle Dingfu before she got married, she was afraid that she would fall behind if she was favored.

Chen Xuejiao's eyes glowed with coldness, which means that I know everything and am not afraid of anything. Zhao accepted the cry, wiped his tears, and reluctantly smiled: "Sister-in-law taught me." ”

Shame, Zhao's heart is dripping blood.

Xue Miao wanted to say something, but was scolded by Zhao: "Xue Miao is not like Sister Xue Ru, she can't be big or small in the future." ”

It doesn't matter whether Xue Miao pays compensation or not, what matters is Zhao's attitude, which shows that Li's fight against Xue Miao is reasonable, and it is easy to talk when he goes out in the future.

When Zhang saw that the Zhao family was actually unable to compensate the Li family, he wanted to slip away, but was caught by Chen Xuejiao at a glance, and looked at her fiercely: "Master Stay is here, I told him that you stole my family's noodles." ”

The Zhang family was afraid that Old Man Chen would be worse than Old Mrs. Chen, so he had to tremble all over his body, and slowly compensated the Li family.

Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she saw Li Yuntian's figure swaying at the door of the pot house, and swallowed all the words she wanted to say. She is afraid that Li's mother's family will make trouble, so she will lose her face, and Mrs. Chen is not afraid of losing face in the inner courtyard of the Chen family, which does not mean that she is not afraid of losing face in front of outsiders.

At this time, the old man Chen came back from the field with a male laborer, and saw that the old lady Chen had not cooked well, her face was gloomy, but she didn't pay attention to the strange atmosphere in the pot house, and went to the upper room with Li Yuntian to say a few words.

Li Shi saw that the punishment was almost over, so he dropped a sentence: "If you don't have it, you don't have to open the door, don't be afraid that I will tear your mouth." ”

Chen Xuejiao and Chen Xueru surrounded the Li family and entered the north wing.

Li had to comfort Chen Xueru, she was too honest before, and her temperament was like her, no, she was not at home until she was too big, so she made a fuss.

In the evening, taking advantage of the free time to eat, Chen Xuejiao gave Li Shi a reminder: "...... Mother, I think we might as well build a pot house to cook alone. ”

Chen Xueru, Chen Qi'an, Chen Qiping, and Wang Jinghao nodded in unison.

Li Yuntian, who had not spoken, spoke: "I'll see that it's okay, cook separately and be quiet." It won't take long to build a pot house, and I can see that the rest of the field can be sown in the middle of the morning. I took Da Zhuang, Da Nian, Qi An, and Tu Tu to pull stones, and I had a ready-made car, and I asked a few neighbors to help, and it was done in one afternoon. ”

Li listened and nodded.

Just in the corner of the north wing, near the vegetable garden, a small area was drawn to build a pot house.

After planting wheat the next day, Li Yuntian used a horse-drawn cart to pull soil and stones to his home again and again. The village knew that the big house was going to build a pot house, so he personally invited a few strong laborers from the village to help move the stones and lay the foundation. Old Man Chen vaguely heard that Xue Ru was angry, and also supported the big house to separate the pot house, and came back from the field early that day, taking Chen Zifu to help support the pot stove.

Because the pot house is small, it is not as complicated as building a house, just building walls, paving the ground, supporting pots, and the strength of many people, it will be done in one afternoon.

In the evening, Li and the children personally made a sumptuous dinner in the newly completed pot house to entertain the people who contributed to the effort. (To be continued......)
