Chapter 20: A Clever Retreat
And here, Yuan and Wei Xiaogoose had already greeted Mrs. Tian again, and ignored her at all.
Qiao's heart was angry, so he gave Wei Fu and Wei Gui brothers a look. This is on the way here, the three of them said okay, let Wei Fu and Wei Gui rummage around after they arrived in the West Courtyard to see if there were anything else in the West Courtyard.
Qiao's had other thoughts, if Mrs. Tian found it alone, it would be all her own credit, and she wouldn't think about getting it clean. And if his two sons find something, they can hide some secretly, and let Mrs. Tian miss them. This also relieved Qiao's anger that he couldn't turn things over by himself.
With Qiao's hint, Wei Fu and Wei Gui brothers immediately ran around in the west courtyard, picking up wooden sticks from time to time and putting down the stone slabs. Later, Wei Fu simply ran to the firewood shed to rummage in the firewood.
Seeing that they made a mess of the yard in a short time, Wei Xiaogoose couldn't help but look at the old lady Tian with her eyes, and said with a little grievance: "Grandma, I finally cleaned up the yard." ”
"They are your brothers," Mrs. Tian glared, glanced at Qiao's, and suddenly said, "Why do I seem to have seen a cat enter the Westinghouse?" ”
Qiao's was also depressed because his two sons didn't understand what they meant, and they couldn't get out of the house in the yard, and when they heard Mrs. Tian's words, they suddenly became energetic and said: "My brother and sister and two children live here, I can't have a little mistake, I'll go and see." ”
It was as if she cared about the West Courtyard as much.
Yuan and Wei Xiaoge, mother and daughter, glanced at each other, and understood in their hearts that Mrs. Tian and Qiao were making excuses and had to go into the room to toss.
"Auntie, sit down, I'll go." Wei Xiaoge also asked, "Grandma, which room did you see that cat going to?" "I look like I'm afraid of others coming in.
"What if you get scratched by a cat?" Mrs. Tian was excited in her heart and quickened her pace. As he spoke, he was already walking towards the room to the west.
Joe walked to the house to the east. He also said: "I'll also help you see, there are no people in this room for a long time, in case there are any insects, insects, snakes, snakes or something, I can help you get them out." ”
There are three rooms in the west courtyard, except for the main house, which are two auxiliary rooms in the east and west. If there is a small chance that something will be in the main house, it will probably be in two empty rooms.
Seeing that Mrs. Tian and Qiao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rushed in, Yuan bit his lip.
"Mother," Wei Xiaoge shouted, "You help take a look at the stove first, and I'll take a look." ”
These two shameless women, it's useless to stop them, you can only relax if you let them check it.
As soon as they heard that Wei Xiaoge was going to follow, Mrs. Tian and Qiao were secretly happy in their hearts, and they walked faster. I thought that I had to rummage through it to see if there was anything before Wei Xiaogoose came over.
But soon the two of them came out, and there were no windfalls, except for what they already knew.
Seeing Wei Xiaoge following her, Mrs. Tian glared at her and said, "What, I'm afraid that I will steal your things?" ”
Having said this, and knowing that they couldn't find anything, Wei Xiaoge pretended to be aggrieved and simply went to boil water and cook.
Mrs. Tian and Qiao were unwilling, so they changed rooms with each other to check, but they still walked out empty-handed.
When they saw that Yuan went to the main house to coax the child who was crying after waking up, the two of them looked at each other and walked in after him, obviously still hopeful.
Seeing that Mrs. Tian and Qiao's were rummaging through the main house, Yuan's was annoyed and walked out directly with the child in his arms.
As soon as she came out, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were too embarrassed to stay in the room no matter how thick-skinned they were, and besides, they also looked through the places that should be searched, but there was nothing to do.
Yuan sat outside the kitchen with the child in his arms to feed, and Wei Xiaoge slowly lit the fire after putting the rice in the pot in the kitchen.
She is going to make millet porridge and steam the vegetable cakes she made yesterday. Washed a radish and prepared it cold as a dish.
After Mrs. Tian and Qiao's came out, they stood at the door of the kitchen, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought about watching Wei Xiaogoose be in a hurry when cooking. But I saw that she boiled the fire and washed the rice and put it in the pot, and then went to get two vegetable cakes and put them aside, apparently waiting for the rice in the pot to boil a few times and then put the cakes inside to heat.
After doing this, I added a handful of firewood to the stove, picked up the washed radish, and cut it slowly, the knife work was not bad.
Wei Xiaoge's methodical and concise actions made Qiao's eyes secretly grit his teeth. He also said in a weird way: "Little goose, why don't you work so well in the old courtyard?" ”
As soon as she said this, the old lady Tian next to her frowned.
This Qiao's family, if you don't stir up trouble, you will feel uncomfortable?
"Auntie, it's really that you are too neat in your work, so you can't see how I'm working?" Wei Xiaoge said, suddenly raised his head and couldn't help but be stunned.
On the wooden ladder next to the root of the wall in the courtyard, Wei Gui didn't know when he climbed up, he was almost halfway up, Wei Gui followed behind him, and also climbed a few ladders.
With a quick turn of his mind, Wei Xiaoge's eyes swept over Qiao's and smiled a little meaningfully. Then he raised his throat and said to Yuan, who was facing him at the door: "Mother, you are optimistic about your brother, it is windy outside, don't let him be blown by the wind." ”
Qiao Shi was choked by Wei Xiaoge's words, and suddenly stared at by Wei Xiaogoose, who had never been before, couldn't help but wonder a little.
But when she saw Wei Xiaoge's gaze couldn't help but sweep away, and then quickly retracted it, and she looked afraid of what she would see, it was even more strange.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at the place where Wei Xiaoge had just looked, and at a glance she saw the rich brother standing on the ladder, and her heart suddenly jumped.
The old Wei family has nearly ten daughters to have a pair of twin boys like Fugui Brothers, especially when the Yuan family has not given birth to a son before, these two children are taken care of as treasures. So they were never allowed to do something as dangerous as going to the roof.
At this time, Qiao Shi only felt that his heart and liver were about to be mentioned to his throat, and immediately shouted: "Wei Fu, Wei Gui." ”
As he shouted, he ran towards the ladder.
was shouted by her like this, Mrs. Tian looked up, and suddenly she was baby, and she screamed in her heart.
The rich brothers were also startled by Qiao's voice, so when Qiao's and Mrs. Tian passed, they shouted for the two of them to come down, and the two brothers obediently walked down from above.
After coming down, Qiao's scolded them. Then he rushed to the kitchen and scolded Wei Xiaoge: "Okay, you little slut, if I hadn't seen it in time, would you have thought that it would be comfortable for their brothers to fall in their hearts?" ”
