Chapter 5
When Xiao Nannan was about to answer, she remembered that her mother had taught her, 'You can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people', even though she can feel the kindness from Xu Aniang's mother and son, but now when she wants to say her real name, she hesitates again.
Xu Chengzhi could clearly see this little sister's defense against herself, and comforted her, "Little sister, don't be afraid, you faint alone in the mountains and forests, and your parents can't find you, I'm afraid you're going to be in a hurry, knowing your family name, we can help you find your parents!" ”
It's okay not to say it, as soon as I talk about it, Xiao Nannan thinks of her parents who are now missing, even if she is taught by her parents to be obedient and sensible, she can't help but cry at this moment, and she bites her little lip and refuses to let herself out.
When the mother and son saw that the little girl had become like this because of a sentence, they were all distressed, and they stopped coaxing, and no one dared to mention the previous topic again.
After the meal, Xu Chengzhi tidied up a little bit of the prey that he brought back with his younger brother yesterday and prepared to sell it at the market, while Cheng'an had been leaning on Xiao Nannan's side since breakfast, and he didn't know what he was talking about.
Cheng Zhi heard Cheng An's noise over there, and called out helplessly, "Cheng An, stop playing, go to the market with me with your things, you won't be able to catch up if it's too late." ”
Xu A-Niang, who had just finished cleaning up the stove in the house, came out of the house to see this kind of scene, and also helped the eldest son to say a few words, "A'an, hurry up and stop playing, didn't you see that your eldest brother is urging?" ”
Seeing this, Cheng An touched his nose in a swagger, and coaxed Ah Niang with a gag before picking up the prey and leaving behind the eldest brother.
Xu A-Niang looked at the little girl sitting alone in the yard, so she walked up to her and asked with a smile, "Is the little girl bored alone?" Let's go, go into the house with Auntie, and Auntie will help you get some medicine! ”
"Thank you, Auntie!" The little girl replied obediently.
Xu A-Niang sighed, "You kid, I don't know which Jiaojiao family it is, so sensible!" ”
As soon as Xu A-Niang finished helping Xiao Nannan to apply medicine to her wound and coaxed her to sleep before the injury was healed, she heard someone calling her outside the door, and went out of the house to see, "It turns out to be Aunt Lin, come in." ”
Aunt Lin entered the house with a smile, looked at the little girl lying on the kang and smiled in surprise, "Yo, where did this little Jiaojiao come from, this handsome appearance that has grown up, I can't find a pretty girl in our village anymore!" Aunt Lin thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Could this be the little daughter-in-law you bought for your Ah Zhi?" ”
Xu A-Niang glanced at Aunt Lin angrily, "Auntie, look at what you are talking nonsense, you don't know what the conditions of our family are, how can you afford such a beautiful little girl!" In order to satisfy Aunt Lin's curiosity, she sighed, "Isn't this because of my distant cousin, some time ago, because something happened at home, I was asked to take care of this child for a while, you see where you want to go!" ”
Xu A-Niang didn't know the origin of Xiao Nannan, but if the village knew that the child's origin was unknown, I was afraid that I wouldn't know what trouble it would cause, after all, since the incident a few years ago, the village was no longer allowed to take in outsiders, and even when Azhi A'an came back with the child yesterday, she was cautious, afraid of being seen.
"Really?" Aunt Lin secretly said in her heart, why didn't she know that you had a cousin, but she also understood what relatives Xu A-Niang's family had, and she really didn't know very well, "But speaking of which, if anyone can give birth to such a beautiful Jiaojiao, it should only be your family, look at you like this, and then look at this little Jiaojiao, it is not difficult to see that your family is all beautiful." ”
For Aunt Lin's praise, Xu A-Niang modestly replied, "Aunt Lin, what are you talking about, I am already the mother of two children, and I am already old, how can I be worthy of you to say this, to put it mildly, who in the village doesn't know that you are the 'flower' in our village!" ”
Aunt Lin covered her mouth and smiled, "Don't say that, I think that when you first came to Xujia Village, the young man in the village rushed to your house to help with the work, thinking about the law just to be able to take a look at you, I can't forget the grand occasion of the year!" ”
Xu A-Niang's father used to be the master in this village, and the two lived here after the disaster, so they took root in this village and got married.
"Aunt Lin, let's stop flattering each other, what are you doing today?"
"Hey, look at me, I forgot about it, look at my memory!"
Xu A-Niang looked at Aunt Lin patting her head, and also thought of herself, and said with deep sympathy, "Don't say it, I'm like this too, I just wanted to do something and forgot it in a blink of an eye." ”
"Hey......" Aunt Lin sighed, "You are still a few years younger than me, I think you are my age, alas...... Don't say it, don't say it......"
Aunt Lin waved her hand and said, "Let's get down to business, I just came out of the village chief's house, yes, I received a quasi-letter this morning, the new master introduced by Master Fang will arrive in the next two days, I just want to come to your house to report a letter first, your family Chengzhi, that is a person who loves to learn, Master Fang used to praise him, let those people in the school learn like your family A Zhi, as soon as this new master comes, you can send it to study hard, strive for it, our village will come out as soon as possible!" ”
Xu A-Niang said embarrassedly, "Aunt Lin, look at what you have praised him for, Ah Zhi loves to learn a little, but if you look at my family A'an, I know nonsense all day long, I can't read any books, my hair is a lot gray every day!" ”
"Hey......" Aunt Lin also felt a little distressed for Xu A-Niang when she talked about this, "Since your Xu Qing is gone, you are pulling these two children alone, and it is not easy, fortunately, these two children of your family are obedient, although Cheng'an doesn't like to study, but he is also filial enough, he will listen to whatever you say, how can he be like my son, I really think that he is my enemy in my previous life, and he came to me to ask for his life!" ”
Everyone in the village knows about Aunt Lin's family, since the eldest son did not listen to his parents' advice and married the current daughter-in-law who loves to toss, the family seems to be never at peace, every time Aunt Lin and her daughter-in-law have a conflict, the eldest son always helps the daughter-in-law, but it seems that Aunt Lin is like a bad mother-in-law, and the angry Aunt Lin often cries alone at home.
I really can't imagine how Aunt Lin has such a hearty temperament and can have such a son and daughter-in-law.
