Chapter 63: What Nonsense?
The Cai family's yard is in the middle of the village, while the fat aunt's house is not far from the entrance of the village.
Cai Yuanqi walked towards the entrance of the village with a small bamboo basket, and greeted the villagers who were strolling around the door sweetly along the way.
"Aunt Liu is eating!"
"Sister Zhang, your little girl is getting better and better."
Sister Zhang in Cai Yuanqi's mouth is Aunt Liu's new daughter-in-law, who has given birth to a little granddaughter who is just over a year old, and is walking around on the road.
"What is this rich girl going to do with this basket!"
Cai Yuanqi raised his hand and raised the basket in his hand, and explained the matter neatly, "The fat aunt said that she likes the jade crystal cake that has been particularly famous in the city recently, so the eldest brother went to the city yesterday and brought some back." ā
As she spoke, she deliberately picked up the covered handkerchief, and the pieces of yam cakes stacked in it had a faint fragrance.
Aunt Liu said that she wanted to touch it, "Ouch, I haven't seen this yet, this is a good thing!" ā
"This is not good, I bought this for my fat aunt."
Cai Yuanqi hurriedly hid the bamboo basket behind him, looked around, and said cautiously: "Actually, if you want to buy it, Aunt Liu, I can also help you buy it, it must be much cheaper than in the city." ā
Aunt Liu didn't believe her words, and waved her hand disdainfully, "I don't believe your little girl's words, this pastry can be worth a few dollars." ā
Zhang, who was carrying a little girl on the side, couldn't help but speak, "Mother, last time I went to the city with my second brother, these five jade crystal cakes cost twenty yuan." ā
"My mother!"
Aunt Liu couldn't help but pull Cai Yuanqi, "Rich girl, don't you know anything?" ā
"I can't say that."
Cai Yuanqi hurriedly covered his mouth, revealing a pair of smart apricot eyes looking at his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Zhang thought that he would go to his mother's house to see his nephew in a few days, if he brought some jade crystal cake back, were he afraid that his mother's family would look down on him?
My mother-in-law has always been a deduction, and she is most reluctant to let her pay for her mother's house.
"No, my eldest brother said that I can't say it!"
Cai Yuanqi dodged Zhang's hand, his little face hesitated for a moment, and sighed, "Although I can't say, but the eldest brother said that if you want something, it will definitely be cheaper than in the city!" ā
As if revealing some peerless secret, Cai Yuan snorted and ran quickly with the basket.
Aunt Liu hid this matter in her heart, how could she hide it like this, and told her daughter-in-law to take a good look at Xiao Niuniu, and walked towards the neighbor's house next to her with melon seeds.
"Is Fat Aunt at home?"
The fat aunt was making manure in the backyard, waiting to take it outside to the half-acre vegetable garden and sprinkle it, and when she heard the movement, she washed her hands and came out.
I saw Cai Yuanqi standing outside the courtyard, carrying a small bamboo basket with a sweet smile on his round face.
And the little son of his own family, who was peeling peanuts in the yard, just stood there and giggled, and he didn't know how to greet anyone.
The fat aunt raised her hand and slapped her youngest son on the back, "Why don't you know how to bring your sister in and sit down." ā
Cai Yuanqi walked into the courtyard generously, and did not look around, but raised the bamboo basket in his hand, "Fat aunt, this is for you to try." ā
She was very suspicious that the bowl that was placed at the door was given by the fat aunt's family, because Cai Fugui knew the fat aunt's man.
"Ouch, why are you giving something away!"
The fat aunt wiped her hands on her body, took the bamboo basket and lifted the handkerchief to take a look, her face sank, "How did such a precious thing come to our house, your father still thinks that he is the son of a landlord!" ā
Seeing that the fat aunt had misunderstood, Cai Yuanqi waved his hand again and again, "Fat aunt, you misunderstood, this is what my eldest brother said he wanted to bring to you, and I hope you can help me." ā
The fat aunt's face softened at this time, and she said with a smile, "What's the hurry, you say, as long as I can do it." ā
She directly pulled Cai Yuanqi into the main house, and told Xiao Nian to go to the kitchen to bring Cai Yuanqi a bowl of water.
Cai Yuanqi was not polite and walked into the main house.
The house is cleaned very neatly, there are two wings on the left and right, and the fat aunt and husband and wife should be sleeping in the main room in the middle, and there is a wild flower in the broken bowl on the kang table.
"My eldest brother found a job in the city, bought the things he needed for daily life, and then bought them directly from our house."
Cai Yuanqi pointed to the jade crystal cake, "This jade crystal cake for the elders on weekdays costs twenty yuan for five yuan in the city." ā
The fat aunt opened her mouth wide and stared at this plate of jade crystal cakes, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva, "Then you sent half a tael of silver to my house." ā
"My eldest brother said that in the future, I hope that the fat aunt will help promote it more."
Cai Yuanqi sweetly praised the fat aunt for how reliable she is, and this matter is the most suitable for the fat aunt.
The fat aunt who praised her heart was overjoyed, and slapped the table with her big hand, "The little girl went back and told your eldest brother to rest assured, don't say anything else, since I promised it, I will definitely be able to help you do it." ā
"Then thank you, Fat Aunt!"
Cai Yuanqi stood up with a smile and took his leave.
Unexpectedly, the fat aunt grabbed her arm and glanced out of the courtyard, "To be honest, your grandmother has gone to the village chief's house today, and it seems that your family is really going to pay for the rent." ā
Cai Yuanqi's eyelashes trembled slightly, raised his eyes to look at the fat aunt and nodded, "I know, I'll tell my father and mother when I go back." ā
This old lady Cai has obviously decided that she will not recognize this son, and she will have to deal with the rent of her lion's mouth when the time comes.
"It's also fate for you to have such a grandmother in your stall!"
The fat aunt sighed and sent Cai Yuanqi to the door.
"Sister Yuanqi."
Not long after Cai Yuanqi walked out of the yard of the fat aunt's house, Cai Nian's voice came from behind her, and she turned back in surprise.
He handed over the things in the handkerchief bag in his arms, and his round face, which was very similar to the fat aunt, smiled honestly, "This, give, give Cai Jingjing." ā
Yes?
Cai Yuanqi blinked, hurriedly took two steps back and shook his head, "You can find someone else for this, I don't know their family well." ā
Cai Jingjing's artillery battle, just one point, she can't provoke it.
"I heard Cai Jingjing say, did you rob her things, can you not rob her, if you like something, tell me, I will save money to buy it for you!"
Cai Nian said in a hurry.
"You two ......"
Cai Yuanqi clasped his hands around his chest and sighed twice, "You must know that you are from the same village, who do you like, like that Cai Jingjing." ā
"Y-What are you talking nonsense!"
Cai Nian was poked in the center of thought, and took back the veil angrily, "No, I won't let you hand it to her!" ā
"IāI don't want to, I'll hand it to you!" Cai Yuanqi deliberately learned his words, squeezed his nose and snorted.
"Xiao Nian, what are you doing!"
The fat aunt's shout in the courtyard frightened Cai Nian and ran home without looking back.
Cai Yuanqi grinned for a long time, why is this kid so cute!
