Chapter Two Hundred and One: Another Famine Year

The life experience of this little doll Zetong has always been a mystery.

No matter how Zhao Xiaoxi asked, he just didn't squeak. It wasn't until the queen of heaven that Zhao Xiaoxi guessed a little bit of eyebrows when he saw Xu Linhuan and them looking for someone in the town.

This eldest lady is looking for her half-brother, the son of the third aunt of the Xu family.

For example, in a big family like the capital, there are several aunts and wives. I don't know what grievances the little young master had, but he went to Fengle Town with Xu Linhuan's convoy. Later, the people of the Xu family couldn't find the little master, so they sent a letter and asked Xu Linhuan to look for it in the town.

After getting such news, Zhao Xiaoxi didn't know how panicked.

Together, it can almost be concluded that the little doll Zetong is Xu Linhuan, the younger brother of Miss Xu. Later, when he heard the name of the little young master, Zhao Xiaoxi was even more desperate, coincidentally, it was Xu Zetong.

This is over, Xu Linhuan is so unforgiving, if she knows that Xiao Ze has lived in Zhao Xiaoxi's house for so many days, maybe what will happen!

It was raining heavily, and there was no business in the shop, so several people sat together and discussed Zetong's affairs.

Sister-in-law Fu was soft-hearted, looking at Zhao Xiaoxi like that, she said kind words and comforted: "Speaking of which, we didn't do anything!" If you hadn't brought him back that day, he might have died. ”

"Miss Xu won't care about this." Shun Niang shook her head, feeling that this matter was very difficult to handle: "She may also say that Xiaoxi deliberately hid her brother, Xiaoxi, let's let the kid take the initiative to show up and tell him not to talk more." ”

"He had injuries all over his back, as if he had been beaten by a thorn or something. It should have been a hard time at home, so I ran out. Zhao Xiaoxi's righteous heart was completely untenable at this time, and he was filled with righteous indignation: "If he still suffers when he goes back, then it is better to be a companion with our Xiaoyu!" They are about the same age, and the two of them talk and laugh together, and they play well with the dogs. ”

Anyway, there is no shelf of a young master from a big family, and he is also very clever, and he even knows some things in the business field.

"No, if you keep him, you will be in trouble in Fengle Village in the future." Sai Huatuo took a sip of tea soup, shook his head and said: "The Xu family also has a bit of status in Beijing, although this little young master is born in a partial house, but which big family doesn't care about blood?" You'd better put away that kindness and save your life! This child, I will take it out tomorrow and hand it over to Miss Xu, and this matter will be turned over. Little lady Zhao, you can't count the troubles of your own family, and you still want to help others? ”

Sai Huatuo is a person who always speaks to the point.

Zhao Xiaoxi didn't think about these concerns, but as long as he thought of the child being sad, he couldn't suppress his sympathy, and he always thought that he could help this, how much could it cost?

But at this time, listening to what Sai Huatuo said, she was a little scared. The Taobao task has no clue yet, and if it can't be completed, it will be a death. She was very frightened, and she really didn't have the time to take care of other people's affairs.

"I'll go back and ask Xiaotong, that kid has a lot of ideas. If I hadn't been able to stay in my own home, I wouldn't have run out. ”

But this matter is not over, and there is a flood in this part of Fengle Town.

Heavy rain fell from the sky, flooding the fields.

The rain was endless, and seeing that the farmland in the surrounding villages was about to be flooded, the people in Fengle Village were all thinking about disaster relief.

The seedlings inside are basically planted in the spring, which is early rice.

In order to ensure that the family has something to eat, every household basically grows three crops of rice. This is the first season, because of the heavy rain in the past few days, everything has been ruined.

As for the vegetable patch or something, the losses were also very heavy. Zhao Xiaoxi didn't just make a fortune by relying on vegetables and fruits, so the loss was not big, but for those farmers, it was simply a catastrophe.

In order to appease the people in the village, Zhao Xiaoxi generously donated money and begged for his own pockets, and the first thirty or forty families in the village had five taels of silver for a family.

At this time, giving silver is the best way to buy people's hearts, Zhao Xiaoxi is the time to do business, and if she gives some silver now, she will always be able to earn it back in the future, and she doesn't care.

With the silver, the sad mood of the big guys has been diluted a lot, and they are waiting for this heavy rain to stop quickly, so that they can prepare for the next step.

At the same time, the heavy rain also affected Xu Linhuan's progress in finding Xu Zetong, and he stayed in the inn every day. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Xiaoxizai carefully asked Zetong about the situation of the Xu family in Beijing.

It turned out that Xu Zetong's mother was very cowardly, and she was crushed to death by the eldest lady of the Xu family.

Not to mention protecting his own son, even if it is his own life, he is shaky. Even if this child was bullied by his brothers and sisters, even those dogs and powerful family members beat and scolded him.

The third aunt is a useless person, in order to make her life a little better, let the young Xu Zetong endure it. But this doll is only eight years old, how can it stand this. On the day Xu Linhuan left the capital to Fengle Town, he hid in a car dedicated to transporting goods.

Xiao Yu, who was sitting and listening to Xu Zetong's words, was already crying into a miserable tear bun at this time: "Mother, we can't let my brother go, if he goes home, he will definitely be beaten again." ”

The child's mind is too simple, and Zhao Xiaoxi is quite unhappy in his heart, and touched Zetong's little head: "I have no problem taking you in, but Xiaotong, your fifth sister is now in Fengle Town, looking for you everywhere!" If it hadn't been raining heavily for the past few days, she would have found the village. ”

"Aunt Xiaoxi, my fifth sister is fierce. If she knew I was in your house, she would definitely do something to you. Zetong seemed to have made up his mind and gritted his teeth: "I'll go with my fifth sister's house, Aunt Xiaoxi is very good to me, Xiaotong can't bother my aunt." ”

is really a sensible child, Zhao Xiaoxi was sad when he heard it, ruthless, and raised his eyebrows: "Sensei is gone, you leave home this time, if you go back again, you will definitely be killed." ”

"Mother, what should I do with Brother Xiaotong?" Xiao Yu became more and more anxious.

"Just stay with us, the people in the village shouldn't give us out now." Eating people with a short mouth and soft hands, she gave so much silver to each family, and those people couldn't be so uninteresting: "Xiaotong, you will go to school with Xiaoyu in the future, okay?" ”

"Really?" Zetong's eyes lit up, but the light soon dimmed again: "My mother said that it costs a lot of silver to go to a private school. My aunt took me in, and I served as a servant for my aunt, and I didn't go to school. ”

"It's quite cheap for us to go to a private school here, and I didn't take you in to make you a helper. You're only so big, what can you do? Live in peace, it's okay! It's not early, you and Xiao Yu should go to bed early. Zhao Xiaoxi touched Ze Tong and Xiao Yu's little heads, and then pulled Xiao Jingrui back to their own house.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, but fortunately, there was no thunder, and Zhao Xiaoxi was not afraid.

is about the planning of the rookie station, she still has a bit of a headache. Now the vegetables in the field have basically been ruined by this heavy rain, and the vegetable and fruit supermarket has no vegetables and fruits to sell, so it can only sell things like dorayaki and roast duck, and the takeaway service has also been cut off because of this rain, which is considered a lot of money.

Just as he was worried, there were bursts of shouting outside. The sound should be quite loud, but because of the heavy wind and rain outside, the sound was blown away. Zhao Xiaoxi opened the door and took a look, and saw Xiao Wang's family and Xiao Shengqian and his wife standing outside with umbrellas, looking at her with blank eyes.

These people have always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and they must have come to fight the autumn wind again. Zhao Xiaoxi was upset, and when he saw them, he made a sudden mistake in his heart, and raised his voice: "Mother-in-law, why are you here for such a heavy rain?" ”

Those few of them are really unkind. With the rain on his head, he stepped on the water, and he was majestic and high-spirited, and directly opened the fence door and rushed to Zhao Xiaoxi's house. There are only two rooms in total, and when they squeeze into it like this, Zhao Xiaoxi is not comfortable anywhere.

"Yo, the second family is still thinking about making money?" Ah Zhen hung a pair of eyes, looking directly at the project written by Zhao Xiaoxi on the table, she didn't recognize a few words, plus Zhao Xiaoxi wrote Chinese Simplified Chinese, she could understand even less.

Soon, Zhao Xiaoxi cleaned up the things on the table, and stared at Xiao Wang's family: "If you have something to say, it's not too early, I already want to sleep." ”

"You give five taels of silver to every household in the village?" Xiao Wangshi smiled flatteringly, and took two steps closer to Zhao Xiaoxi. If it weren't for Xiao Jingrui blocking her in the middle, she would have come to Zhao Xiaoxi at this time.

Xiao Wang's stomach was full of fire when she looked at Xiao Jingrui, but thinking of the purpose of coming here today, she still endured it and smiled happily: "It seems that you have really made a fortune these days!" This year, our fields have been flooded, the harvest is not good, and there may be a famine! Xiaoxi, you can give so much silver to others, why don't you give more miles to your own family? Your eldest brother is a family, and your father-in-law and I are also a family, so it stands to reason that you should give ten taels of silver to be right, right? ”

Oh, it turned out that the people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, and this Xiao Wang's family was blatantly asking for silver.

It's really shameless, Zhao Xiaoxi despised them all to the eighteenth layer of hell, and the kung fu on the face was still maintained very well, and he spread his hands: "I didn't hear that the uncle and mother-in-law have separated from each other!" Besides, my silver was not blown by a strong wind, and I knew that this year was a year of famine, so every family gave five taels of silver. It stands to reason that five taels of silver for a year is passable. ”

"Others are others, we are a family, can we be the same?" What Xiao Wang said was called an intimacy, and he was about to go to Zhao Xiaoxi's head after staggering.
