Chapter 66: Building a House (2)
Mingshang thought about it and decided to call Xiao Heng over to help out, but Xiao Heng was not from the village, and she was afraid that Xiao Heng's appearance would arouse everyone's suspicions, so Mingshang discussed with Niu Er, and said that Xiao Heng was Niu Er's distant cousin, and Niu Er was upright, so he didn't think much about it, so he nodded and agreed.
"Hey, Mingshang, it's just a meal, why do you have to take me with you? Aren't you afraid of what people will gossip about you? ”
Xiao Heng heard that he was going to drag him to cook, but he didn't want to say anything.
"I told Niu Er, and I said that you are his cousin, and people agreed, so no one said it, right?"
Mingshang said as he pulled Xiao Heng down the mountain.
When they came to Niu Er's house, their mother-in-law and Cuifen had already picked and washed the vegetables, and they were about to fry them.
"Mother-in-law, I'm back." Mingshang stepped into the courtyard, followed by Xiao Heng.
"Who is this young man? You're so handsome! The mother-in-law couldn't help but praise.
"My friend, called Xiao Heng, is not enough manpower, so I called over to help."
"The gentleman is far away from the cook, Xiao Heng, at first glance, he is a person with great achievements, how can you pull him to cook? You're a ...... girl."
"It's okay, he volunteered." Mingshang said and started to help.
Xiao Heng is not a person who can't find something to do, he is very skilled at stir-frying the cut vegetables, and Cuifen is responsible for lighting the fire.
Mingshang looked at Xiao Heng's very skillful frying, and couldn't help but wonder if this Xiao Heng was fighting a war or a cook? Mingshang even thought that this Xiao Heng was actually a cook in someone's military camp before, and later stole the armor of the general and ran away.
……
"Mingshang, what are you thinking? The dishes are almost out of place. Seeing that Mingshang was in a daze, the mother-in-law couldn't help urging.
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly remembered something." Mingshang said and handed over the cut vegetables.
"Is Mingshang there?"
As he spoke, a scathing voice came into Mingshang's ears, and Mingshang heard that it was Zhao's voice.
Since the last incident, the Jiang family was afraid, and then found the Zhao family's rescuer.
Mingshang acted as if he hadn't heard it, and continued to do the work in hand.
"Mingshang, who is she?" Mother-in-law asked.
"Someone who doesn't matter."
When the mother-in-law saw that Mingshang didn't want to say, she stopped asking.
Seeing that no one answered, Zhao pushed open the door of the courtyard and entered the courtyard with Jiang.
The kitchen was smoking, and Zhao and Jiang walked towards the kitchen without saying a word.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, Zhao saw Mingshang, because someone was there, she couldn't go too far, but said with a smile on her face: "Shang'er, why don't you go home when you're sick?" It's always inconvenient to live in someone else's house. ”
"Auntie, you speak carefully, who has been at someone else's house?" Mingshang asked coldly.
Zhao didn't continue to entangle with Mingshang, but said: "Okay, if you say no, it's not." You and Niu Er are just friends, I know that. It's just that Shang'er, it's not a way for you not to go home for a long time, is it? I know you're angry with your mother, you see, I brought your mother here, if you don't go back with your aunt this time, you won't give your aunt face! ”
There are so many people, and Mingshang doesn't want to quarrel with them: "Auntie, you have also seen that I am busy building a house over there, and the workers still have to eat, I can't go back now!" ”
