63. Chew the root of the tongue
One by one, the carriages drove unhurriedly into the mountain village, and several village women who saw the carriage immediately exchanged ears.
"Yo, whose relatives are these, it's really rich to see that car full of things."
"His second aunt, you don't know, this is a relative of the poor scholar family on the mountain, I saw his daughter-in-law and a man shopping in the shop in the town two days ago, tsk, tsk, I don't know what the relationship is."
When Aunt Lin heard this, she immediately sank her face: "Damn it, don't chew the root of your tongue, that's Qi Yan's daughter-in-law's long-lost brother, this girl has been pitiful enough since she was bitter, and now she finally found her family." Don't talk nonsense if you don't know! ”
The dog-girl put down her face and didn't want to scold the village chief's wife, so she asked unconvinced: "Then how did Aunt Lin know?" ”
Aunt Lin snorted coldly and replied loudly: "Of course I know, on the day they recognized their relatives, they also went to our house to explain the reason to the child's father, then there is still a token of recognizing relatives, where can I fake, I think that Qi Yan's daughter-in-law is afraid that someone in the village will chew the root of his tongue like you!" ”
The dog didn't say anything more, snorted coldly and left.
The rest of the women didn't dare to talk nonsense after listening to Aunt Lin's words, after all, everyone went to the village chief to say it, and there were tokens, so it must not be wrong. It seems that this poor scholar has bought a treasure, and looking at the things on the carriage, he has really climbed into the rich and noble.
Fortunately, Mo Xin read countless strange novel plots and paid some attention to the so-called "simple villagers", and after the worship, he wittily went to the village chief to report it. But the two didn't look like brothers and sisters at first glance, but fortunately, Nangong Li reacted quickly, saying that they were half-brothers, and quietly smashed the gourd jade pendant they carried with them as a token to show the village chief, and then they passed. Mo Xin's surname also remained the same, saying that she had the same surname as her biological mother.
Thinking that Mo Xin was bought by Fang Qiyan from Renyazi, he looked so thin when he first came. Even if people recognize their relatives, it is not surprising that they are reluctant to take their father's surname. So the village chief did not doubt him, believed in the two of them very much, and instructed Mo Xin to entertain Nangong Li.
Speaking of that piece of jade, it is quite valuable, and Nangong will naturally not be bad from carrying it with him. Fortunately, the village chief hadn't seen the jade a few times, and he didn't pay attention to the traces that had just been broken, so he didn't suspect it.
Later, the two of them thought about doing a full set of plays, so they simply used one piece as a token of worship, and Nangong was also ingenious, the gap was very smooth, although the jade was broken, it was not beautiful.
If it weren't for Mo Xin's precautions in advance, the words that the dog girl said today would be enough to cause the villagers to discuss, and then Mo Xin would have become the "red apricot out of the wall" that everyone despised. When the time comes, it will be explained, and it will not be as credible as the report in advance.
It's really unpredictable, and a small thing has so much public opinion in this small mountain village. Not to mention those long-tongued women who like to maliciously smear others, this is also one of the reasons why Mo Xin has never come down to the mountain to deal with the villagers since he went to the mountain village for so long.
After all, "Keyboard Man" is not a special product that only exists in modern times, and the truth that people's hearts are not ancient, Mo Xin has always understood, and she has never underestimated the nature of human beings.
After Nangong sent Mo Xin home, he didn't go back, and simply stayed in the guest room in the front yard. He had to wait for Fang Qiyan to come back, and then let the big ice cube call him "uncle".
Of course, he didn't dare to tell Mo Xin this little bit of caution, otherwise he might not know who his sister would help at that time.
