Chapter 13: Gossip

Zhou Wenwen was relieved a lot when she heard that Han Xiao was with Qiangzi in the past few days, she was afraid that Han Xiao would suddenly open up and break with Qiangzi, then she would have no chance.

Han Xiao enthusiastically pulled Zhou Wenwen and invited her in to sit down, Zhou Wenwen excused himself that there was something at home, and hurriedly said goodbye. Looking at her back as she left, Han Xiao wiped her hands on her clothes with some disgust.

As soon as Li Cuihua and Xiulian finished lunch, Han Xiao came back, and the two hurriedly pulled Han Xiao to sit down to eat.

Han Xiao told her about buying cloth today, and the two sisters-in-law were a little worried that she would be deceived.

Han Xiao told them not to worry, she felt that Shopkeeper Liu was not bad, but he was greedy for money, as long as he gave him enough money, there was no problem.

At this time, Han Xiao didn't know that there were more gossips about her in the village, and she was even more disgusted when she was already unwelcome.

After eating, Li Cuihua and Xiulian continued to make sleeves and shawls, while Han Xiao pulled the eighth sister and began to learn to write.

Han Xiao took out a pen and paper and asked the eighth sister to sit at the table.

The eighth sister felt novel, reached out and touched it, the paper was soft, and then looked up at Han Xiao puzzled, "Eldest sister, what is this?" ”

Han Xiao is the most relaxed in front of the eighth sister, the eighth sister is young and doesn't remember, if you treat her well, she will remember, and there will be nothing wrong if you are slack in front of her.

Han Xiao raised his eyebrows, and said a little teasingly: "Guess, guess right, I'll buy you red date cake to eat tomorrow." ”

The eighth sister thought seriously for a long time and didn't think about it, she hadn't seen it either, she shook her head in confusion, and looked at Han Xiao with a blank eye, "Eldest sister, what do you say, the eighth sister doesn't know what this is." ”

Han Xiao gently rubbed Eighth Sister's face, "Eighth Sister, do you want to learn to write, my sister will teach you." ”

The eighth sister's eyes lit up, and when she played with the little friends in the village, she always listened to what they said to write and write, which made her envious, "Big sister, the eighth sister is willing to learn." ”

Han Xiao looked at the eighth sister softly, "Writing, the body must be upright, the hands must be steady, and the heart must be written in order to write well." ”

After finishing speaking, he wrote a Korean character on the paper, "Eighth sister, let's learn this Korean character first, Han is our surname, and we can't forget our surname wherever we go." ”

Han Xiao accompanied the eighth sister to practice the characters for an afternoon, and the eighth sister practiced until she was soft, and then she thought about writing the Korean characters.

Li Cuihua and Xiulian were a little puzzled when they saw Han Xiao teaching her sister to practice calligraphy, they had never heard Han Xiao know how to write before.

Han Xiao hurriedly explained that it was her mother who taught her, and Li Cuihua remembered that Han Xiao's mother could write, and this matter passed.

When the second and third sisters came back, the eighth sister took the words she wrote and handed them to the sisters in a jump.

They hadn't gone to school much and couldn't recognize a few words, but just looking at them, they felt that the eighth sister wrote well.

The next day, Han Xiao went out early against the cold wind and went to Sun's house in the east of the town.

At the beginning of learning, Sun Deyou only asked Han Xiao to pick the ingredients for making pastries, and Sun Deyou mixed a few boxes of good and bad boxes and let Han Xiao pick.

Han Xiao didn't pick any of these, he didn't pick them well, and he was always prone to mistakes.

After Zhou Wenwen returned home, she thought that something was wrong, she saw that Han Xiao seemed to be holding something in her hand yesterday, and smelled some fragrance, thinking to herself, Han Xiao must be hiding what she was doing when she went out, and she didn't want her to know.

So I went to Han's house again in the morning, and found that Han Xiao was not at home again, so I was even more sure that Han Xiao had something to hide from her.

In the next few days, Li Cuihua and Xiulian were still making sleeves at Han's house, the eighth sister was practicing calligraphy at home, and Han Xiao went to Sun's house to pick up materials as usual.

Zhou Wenwen went around Han's house for a few days and found that Han Xiao went out early every day and didn't come back until dinner was ordered.

felt that something was wrong, and thought about following Han Xiao for a few days, and found that she often went to Sun's house. It was also discovered that there was often a man in the Han family who went in empty-handed and took a frame when he came out.

On this day, she followed Gao Dahan to the town again, she saw Gao Dahan take out a thing from the frame, many people rushed around to buy it, and it was sold out in the blink of an eye, Zhou Wenwen was a little red.

Zhou Wenwen stopped a woman who had bought a sleeve sleeve from a distance and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing, I look strange and novel." ”

The woman saw that Zhou Wenwen was well-behaved and polite, so she patiently explained to Zhou Wenwen and taught her how to use it.

In the afternoon, Zhou Wenwen followed Gao Dahan back to Han's house, and she saw Gao Dahan handing the money to the eighth sister at the door.

Standing outside the house, thinking about Han Xiao's abnormality, the hatred for Han Xiao deepened in his heart.

Zhou Wenwen said in his heart: Okay, you Han Xiao, I treat your sister in vain, you actually sell things behind my back to make money, and don't tell me, you wait, see if I don't kill you.

Zhou Wenwen, who was so angry enough, went to Qiangzi first, told Qiangzi what she had discovered in the past few days, and asked Qiangzi if he knew about it, and after learning that Qiangzi didn't know, Zhou Wenwen teased again: "Han Xiao, this must be to make you money again." ”

Zhou Wenwen pretended to say a few examples of women who would become bad when they were rich, and then pretended to say that Han Xiao's recent whereabouts made Qiangzi mistakenly think that Han Xiao had found a new concubine outside.

Zhou Wenwen couldn't see that Han Xiao was better than her, so he immediately found a reason to go to Han Xiao's grandparents' house, and inadvertently revealed that Han Xiao had made a little money by selling things recently, and asked Han Xiao's grandparents if they had gotten the money.

After Zhou Wenwen left, the two old men summed up, and in the name of looking at their granddaughter, they went to Han's house to explore the truth and reality.

This morning, Sun Deyou's grandson came home, because he hadn't seen his grandson for a long time, he planned to cook a good meal for his grandson, and reunite, so he let Han Xiao go home first.

As soon as Han Xiao arrived home, he saw several people in the village surrounding his door, and looked in from time to time, and he didn't know that something bad had happened to her family.

Han Xiao was confused, she walked in through the gap in the crowd, and when she entered the door, she found that the two old men were sitting in the room, the door of the main room was wide open, and the eighth sister was standing honestly next to her in a sweater, without saying a word.

The only thing that can make the eighth sister afraid of being like this can only be their grandparents, Han Xiao thought to herself.

She went in and shouted respectfully, "Grandfather, grandmother." ”

As if they hadn't heard, the two old men ignored Han Xiao and sat there without moving.

The eighth sister wore little clothes, the door of the house was wide open, and the cold wind and freezing eighth sister's little face was red and her body was trembling. The two old men were tightly wrapped, and they couldn't see anything cold.

Han Xiao looked distressed, she couldn't care so much, and directly dragged the eighth sister to the house where she made the sleeves.

Seeing that Han Xiao was ignoring them directly, Grandmother opened her mouth and scolded, "Oh, you little conscienceless, leave the two of us old ones here and take care of her family's money-losing goods." ”
