Chapter 242: Don't Panic

Zhong Yuqi nodded and said, "Hmm! Since I also said such a thing, then sister-in-law doesn't have to be afraid that I will go out to tell the truth. And when your husband returns, you do not have to tell him, lest he blame you. ”

The woman said, "That's natural." ”

At this time, there was a "gurgling" sound from Yanyue's stomach, and in this moment of tranquility, everyone heard it very clearly.

Qiu Shi said to Yanyue: "Yanyue, are you hungry?" ”

Yan Yue lowered her head, embarrassed to speak.

The woman looked at Yanyue and said, "I have food for my man at home, and if the child is hungry, go and eat a little first!" Small children can't eat much. Look at this child's thinness, he usually starves a lot, right? ”

Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, the woman quickly changed her words and said, "Oh...... I just watched the child be emaciated, so I thought she was starving. This kid can travel with Miss Childe, and if he wants to come, he won't usually be hungry. ”

Zhong Yuqi said: "This child was rescued by us on the road. She came from Xizhou with her mother, I don't know if she wanted to join her relatives or what, and then she was the only one left. Originally, I was going to ask you to adopt her. However, looking at the situation in your family, it seems that your family can't take her in. ”

The woman also glanced at Yan Yue sympathetically and said, "This child looks very well-behaved!" It's a pity...... The young lady also knows the situation in my family, and I can't afford to raise another child. ”

It's not just a matter of giving food, it's also about more life issues.

For example, the house is already crowded enough, where can Yanyue sleep? You can't tell her to sleep on the floor, or in a stack of wood, right? It's better to find a new family that can afford to adopt her.

For another example, there are already three children in this family, and if there is one more foreign child, will the original children in the family be good to Yanyue? Will you complain about the woman?

Also, the family relies on men to earn money to support the family, although the daughter does not spend too much money, but it also costs money. With the ability of their family, they will have to provide for their two sons to study in the future, and one more outsider will be difficult for them.

Therefore, Zhong Yuqi said: "It is rare to meet a good family like you, and she does not have this blessing." So, after tomorrow, I'll find her a good family! ”

The woman hesitated, and some of them stopped talking.

Zhong Yuqi said: "Sister-in-law, what do you have to say? ”

The woman said, "This was originally a matter of the young lady, but I also looked at this child pitiful, so I had to say a few more words." Looking at Miss Childe's appearance, she has a solid family background, and it shouldn't be a problem to raise one more person, right? Let her be a slave or a maid in the house, after all, there is a home. ”

Zhong Yuqi said: "I also thought about this problem beforehand. However, I am away from home now, and it may not be back for a month or two. Moreover, this child was taken in by me halfway, and the household registration is not in my hands. If you put it in my house as a little master, it's not suitable. If you are a slave and a maid, you have wronged her again. It's better to find a good person to take her in, which is also a free body. ”

The woman nodded and said, "That's right!" Looking at Miss Childe's appearance, she is not married yet. If you take a child with you now and spread it, I don't know how many rumors there will be. ”

Zhong Yuqi said: "I'm not worried about this. It's just that there are other reasons in the house that make it inconvenient to take her in. ”

The woman didn't ask any more questions, but nodded.

At this time, a guard came to report that dinner had been made, so Xiao Yulin ordered the meal to be served.

The woman got up and said, "Your guest wants to have dinner, and it is not convenient for me to be here, so I will be absent first!" ”

With that, the woman went to the bedroom and closed the door.

The guards put wine and food on the table, and Xiao Yulin beckoned Zhong Yuqi to dinner.

Because Yanyue was already hungry, Zhong Yuqi asked Qiushi to take Yanyue to the kitchen to eat.

It didn't take long for me to hear some movement outside the courtyard, and footsteps were coming this way, and it seemed that the man of the house had returned.

A guard quickly walked out, also to check on the situation.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and the man couldn't help but be alert when he saw a strange man appear in his home.

"Who are you?" The man asked.

The guard said, "Brother, don't panic! I'm a pedestrian passing by, and my son-in-law wants to borrow your house, so I'm disturbing. ”

At this time, the woman came out and said to the man with a smile, "A distinguished guest has come to the house, and it is getting late, so he will borrow it from our house and make a supper." Now that the guests are eating in the hall, you can go to the kitchen to eat! The food was all hot in the pot. ”

The nervous expression on the man's face relaxed, and he said, "Since there are guests, you should be entertained." Wanyu, have you taken out the good things in your home to entertain guests? ”

The woman said, "Your guest has traveled far away, and he has brought his own goods, but he has borrowed from our house. ”

The man nodded and said, "So, you take care of it here, and I'll go to the kitchen to eat." ”

Ma Liu had already walked out, and when he saw that the man was about to go around the house and go to the kitchen in the back, he said to him with a smile: "This eldest brother, my son-in-law invited the eldest brother in for a meal." ”

The man hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Eh! No way! No way! I'm a country man, how can I eat with nobles? ”

Ma Liu said: "My son-in-law has never paid attention to these virtual things. Since we disturbed the host's house, it is also appropriate to invite the host's family to have a meal together. This big brother, please don't shirk! ”

The man looked at the woman, and both of them hesitated.

Ma Liu said: "This eldest brother, my son-in-law is waiting inside!" Although my son-in-law had already moved his chopsticks, he didn't move for long. Please also ask your sister-in-law to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks! ”

Then the woman answered, "Eh! Since you can afford it, Xiangbin, you can accompany the guest! ”

Then the woman went to the back kitchen.

Ma Liuyi raised his hand and invited the man into the house.

Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi sat at the table, the dishes and chopsticks were placed on the table and did not move, and both of them looked at the door.

As soon as the man entered the room, he saw Xiao Yulin head-on, and his eyes couldn't help but widen and he exclaimed.

"Huh?"

Everyone was puzzled.

Xiao Yulin said: "Why is this brother so surprised? ”

Before the words fell, the man's eyes dodged a few times, and then lowered his eyes, and he didn't make a sound for a while.

The guards in the room saw that the situation was a little abnormal, so they quietly walked to Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi's side, looking at the man vigilantly.
