Chapter 150: Rebuke
"Uncle Liu." Xiao Ming was surprised, looking at the village chief and the guests sitting in the pavilion behind him.
"Miss Xiao is at home, these are guests from the city, the first time they came to the village, they walked around, and came to you to ask for a glass of water to drink." Liu Jisheng looked at Xiao Ming's words and said them quite politely, and never mentioned why Xiao Ming didn't go to Liu's house for dinner.
The guests were described as those who were walking around the village, and they happened to come to her to beg for tea.
Their family often gets some benefits from Xiao Ming, and they also know the grievances between Xiao Ming and Mrs. Liu, and they don't want to speak for their cousin, who doesn't know what to do, and offend Xiao Ming, he understands this cousin's thoughts, and he is afraid that it will be rare to go back to the village in the future, or Xiao Ming, who often gives him gifts, is more realistic.
Along the way, he can be regarded as having understood, the Zhou family in this city is a rich and noble family, his eyes are above the top, and he doesn't take him, the head of a village, seriously, he is drinking and drinking, his sister is even more far away, and he can't say a word, the new daughter-in-law is sitting with a maid ring waiting, she is like an old mother standing aside with a smiling face, she looks like this, don't expect her to carry her son.
The visitor is a guest, Xiao Ming is just at odds with Mrs. Liu, there is no need to ruin the reputation of their Xiao family because she gives others a look, Xiao Ming asked Yi's mother to prepare a lot of tea and fruit snacks to entertain, and let Xiao Han come out to meet the guests, and let Song and Yi's mother introduce the female dependents into the inner courtyard living room to entertain.
"It's a good house." Zhou Zhongcheng nodded, and praised it rarely, this is the first time he has come to Liujia Village today to praise him, but it is not because of the Liu family, but because of the Xiao family.
He is a businessman, so he naturally knows that this large orchard, full of trees and fruits, has little income, and can be regarded as one of the best solid people in Liujia Village, after understanding the situation of the Xiao family, he praised and praised Xiao Han even more, and praised the terrifying afterlife.
However, as the richest man in Pingcheng, he didn't take this wealth of the Xiao family in his eyes, let alone in his heart, and at this time he just took a break to chat with a few friends and brothers in the city.
However, Zhou Lianrong in the inner courtyard was not in such a wonderful mood at this time, and after seeing the exquisite courtyard of the Xiao family and the melons, fruits and vegetables in the garden, she realized that the Xiao family was not as unbearable and poor as Mrs. Liu said.
"My parents are gone, my brother and sister-in-law also went last year, and it is not easy for a few babies to live, so I should help." This is the Xiao family that Mrs. Liu said.
This is a family that is so poor that she wants her to help? This old Yu Po.
Zhou Lianrong looked at her mother-in-law angrily, she really took her for a fool! What nonsense.
Poor Mrs. Liu didn't dare to raise her head under her daughter-in-law's fierce eyes, her heart was so weak that she was too frightened to speak.
Mother Yi brought pear and fruit snacks and put them on the table.
"Madame, please take a seat, the country snacks are rough and sluggish." Song said, and invited Yu to sit down with Zhou Lianrong and the others.
Mrs. Liu also sat down, but she was very honest and didn't say a word, and it was really uncomfortable to face the eyes of her daughter-in-law.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Wang Xiaohua, who was nervous, looked at her mother-in-law's appearance and thought she was uncomfortable.
"Mother, try this grape quickly, it's delicious." Wang Xiaohua didn't stop eating from the moment she entered the door, and she took grapes directly in the yard to eat without being greeted, and the eating appearance was still the same as before, eating quickly and urgently, holding two skewers in her hands, and spitting in one mouth.
Xiao Ming, Song and the others had long been surprised by her appearance, but it made Yu frown, and Zhou Lianrong was even more angry and her face turned red, and she screamed: "What you eat, you know how to eat, the rules taught to you have been eaten by dogs, give me to the door to eat." โ
Zhou Lianrong wiped her clothes with a handkerchief, Wang Xiaohua was very close to her when she spoke, and she felt that her clothes were stained with her spittle.
Wang Xiaohua really went out obediently, and she was very cheerful, and for her, there was more food in the yard; Yu's brows furrowed even tighter, and he reprimanded: "How can Lian Rong speak? He turned his head to Song and smiled: "This child has been spoiled by me since he was a child, and his temperament is straighter." โ
Yu Shi didn't look down on Wang Xiaohua at first sight since she saw her, greedy and delicious, didn't know how to be polite, and was a small family, and once quarreled with the girl in the family over a silver hairpin, and her daughter was really wronged when she got married.
Even if Yu is dissatisfied with Wang Xiaohua in his heart, he will not say it to his face, his daughter is younger, and he can't help but reprimand his sister-in-law in front of outsiders.
"Madame, please eat fruits, they are all homemade." Song said enthusiastically, as if he didn't know what had just happened.
"If you grow such a fruit at home, you can sell it for a lot of money!" Zhou Lianrong ate the grapes and asked, can you sell so many fruits? She wanted to know if the Xiao family was really about to be overwhelmed as Mrs. Liu said, and her husband had to come to the door in person to buy it and not sell it.
It was the first time she had seen ten taels of silver and a pound of fruit, and Zhou Lianrong was indignant.
"It's okay! A large family depends on these fruits for their livelihood. โ
~~ยทยทยท ~~~
The Zhou family and his entourage sat in the Xiao family for a while and left, now the banquet has also been eaten, the village has also seen, in the evening they went back to the city, followed by Liu Fushun and Zhou Lianrong, as when they came, the convoy was huge, the servants were surrounded, and the people in the village went to see the excitement.
"San Lang is blessed, the new daughter-in-law is really handsome." Li Shi talked while washing the grapes, although the fat pig was not sold, but she was also satisfied with the flowing water banquet that she had eaten for five days, and praised the Liu family for a decent banquet, not to mention the cost, envy the Liu family for being developed, saying that this is not over, there is no sullenness at all a few days ago, and there is an unwilling look.
Da Wang's family just listened and didn't say a word, did things seriously, sneered in his heart, his eyelids were shallow, and he bought her with a few meals of meat.
With the departure of Mrs. Liu's family, the village is calm again, the Xiao family is still busy harvesting fruits, Xiao Ming is helping to harvest fruits and clean wine except for going to the town for medical treatment.
"You are?" Xiao Ming looked at the girl in front of her, twenty-eight years old, young and beautiful, but she had the composure that belonged to this age, she came in a carriage, and there was an old woman with her, a little girl who had just left her head.
Xiao Ming looked at the little girl in front of her very familiarly, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it, maybe she was too busy these days and forgot.
"Doctor Xiao, the servant is Lan Ling." Lan Ling saluted respectfully and introduced himself.
