Chapter 2 A Little Warning
Zhang Xingye always felt that today's Su Xiaoluo was weird, with less cowardice and more calmness, she originally felt that she was sure of nine out of ten, but her heart suddenly had no bottom.
"Xiaoluo, that hairpin is the only valuable item in my marriage, I originally wanted to leave it to Fusheng's daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be stolen by you. After all, this matter is a family scandal, let's solve it privately! The second aunt doesn't want to see you alone outside, so let's split up! The old house at the end of the village belongs to you......"
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by her mother-in-law Su Qinshi: "Changgeng's family, have you forgotten who paid for this house, it is my eldest son, Xiaoluo's father built this house with the money that her father brought back from outside, why did you leave Xiaoluo." ”
It turns out that this house was built by my father!
Su Xiaoluo felt a lot more down-to-earth, and a shocked expression appeared on his face: "Second aunt said I stole things? If there is any evidence, report it to the police! I believe that the yamen will not frame the good guys, nor will they let the bad guys go. ”
Zhang Xingye's mother and daughter just want to send Su Xiaoluo to prison, they don't want to follow, and they know very well whether the hairpin is real or not, if it is handed over to the village chief or the yamen, it will be exposed.
"My mother said that as long as you move out of this house, this matter will never be mentioned again, you can go!" Qian Baozhen's attitude took a 180-degree turn, as if it was someone else who was clamoring to get Su Xiaoluo out of the village just now.
Su Xiaoluo obviously felt that her grandmother's body was trembling, and then looked at her face even more pale than just now: "If you have any witnesses, call them over, and leave this matter to the village chief to deal with, or let him send all the human and physical evidence to the county office." Grandma was not feeling well, so I sent her back to the house first. ”
When he walked back, Su Xiaoluo looked at his new home, six adobe houses connected together, the yard was very spacious, the right side of the courtyard wall of the stone barrier was covered with a wooden shed, the left was an open-air kitchen, and a simple wooden house, which should be a warehouse.
She and her grandmother lived in the East House, next to which was a hall, and the other four were occupied by the second uncle's family.
How could Su Qin's mind lie down: "Your second uncle should come back for dinner after going out to work for a while, the mother and daughter didn't get a bargain, they must use this excuse to hide in the house and not come out, when dinner is ready, they will come up." ”
After four or five years in the same courtyard with Zhang Xingye's daughter-in-law, Su Qin's family has already figured out what her temperament is.
"Xiaoluo! Milk knows that you have been wronged, but our family is too young, and you can't do without your mother, your father has no daughter-in-law, and Milk can't bear to let your second uncle ...... too."
"Milk, I don't blame you or the second uncle, I'm going to cook now, you close your eyes and squint for a while!"
The Su family's kitchen consists of two stoves, one large and one small, and a long shelf, the basins are made of clay, and the coarse porcelain bowls are used for eating. Su Xiaoluo counted it, there were three pots, seven bowls, two jars next to the shelves, and there were no other objects.
Finding some fine firewood branches and bark and stuffing them into the stove, Su Xiaoluo took out the fire fold next to him and blew it carefully a few times, a cluster of flames changed from small to large, and the burning firewood made a crackling sound.
After scooping half a scoop of water and brushing the pot clean, Su Xiaoluo grabbed two handfuls of miscellaneous grains from the rice jar and scooped them up and put them in the pot.
And some black noodles, after the pan is boiling, stick a circle of pies along the edges.
While adding firewood, Su Xiaoluo thought that she had to go out and walk around when she had time, there must be mountains in the countryside, and she still knew some common herbs, picking some houttuynia cordata, and dandelions came back to boil water for grandma to drink. The old man's physique is too poor, if you don't pay attention to it, you really won't be able to hold on.
Others may be sad and sad if they travel to the countryside, but Su Xiaoluo is just the opposite, where she can better play her strengths.
Qian Baozhen, who was hiding in the house, saw Su Xiaoluo busy in the kitchen through the cracks in the open window, and turned around to discuss with Zhang Xingye: "Mother, what do you say should be done about this, is it just that?" ”
"My mother also wants to keep her far away, and I feel distressed to give her the old house, but if she doesn't divide her with anything, the old lady and Su Changgeng will definitely not be able to pass that pass, don't mention this matter today, and wait for Su Changgeng to go out to work tomorrow."
Cheap that dead girl, Qian Baozhen was unwilling to think about it, and walked around the house a few times, opened the door and walked to the stove.
Listening to the footsteps coming from the west, Su Xiaoluo didn't raise her eyelids, squatted next to the stove and continued to add firewood to it, she estimated that the cake would be good in a quarter of an hour, grandma's teeth were not good, and the heat should not be too much.
"If I were you, you would move out of this house, so that your grandmother and second uncle would be cleaner. If you are reluctant to let your grandmother go, it is better to persuade her to leave with her, it is better than doing this now and no one appreciates it, what do you say? Qian Baozhen looked down at Su Xiaoluo's hair, this girl even has darker hair than herself, she spun around the stove all day long, although her face is a little yellow, it is still much better than ordinary country girls.
"You don't have to worry about my business, it's not impossible to separate me if you want to, let my second uncle say it himself, I don't listen to other people's words, and I don't believe it!"
Although Su Changgeng didn't talk much, Qian Baozhen knew that he cared about Su Xiaoluo's niece very much, and because of this, they chose to bully Su Xiaoluo when Su Changgeng was not at home.
"If you don't leave, maybe tomorrow in the village, there will be rumors in the county town that there is a thief from the Su family who specializes in stealing relatives' things, aren't you afraid?"
"You also said that it was a rumor, and it passed in a few days." Su Xiaoluo glanced at Qian Baozhen absently, stood up and prepared to uncover the spatula cake.
Qian Baozhen felt that she had smashed her fist on the cotton, but it didn't have any effect, and then she looked at Su Xiaoluo's calm and relaxed look, and she didn't take her threat seriously at all.
Just when Qian Baozhen was about to jump to her feet, Su Xiaoluo suddenly opened the pot, and a ball of hot gas gushed out and rushed to Qian Baozhen's face, she felt that she couldn't open her eyes, and her face was teased by the hot fire.
"Are you blind? Someone is standing next to the stove and you are still unraveling the pot. Qian Baozhen roared angrily.
"I just thought that the second uncle was coming back soon, I had to hurry up and clean up the food, I ignored you, please let go of the side, it's really hot for a while, don't blame me for not reminding me in advance!" It's you who is hot, and if you dare to be crooked, you will burn your mouth directly next time.
