Chapter Twenty-Four: Chickens Fly and Dogs Jump

Shang Xiaoshu brought Aunt Dong to send hometown specialties and homemade lo-mei to the Chen family.

Aunt Dong's niece and daughter-in-law brought some souvenirs from her hometown this time, in addition to the small book that had been given to the monk Chen Jiayi, Aunt Dong also prepared one for the old man and old lady of the Chen family.

Aunt Dong is the best at making all kinds of lo-mei, and the second elder likes to eat the braised pig's trotters and sauced beef she makes, so Aunt Dong often makes some for the old man and the old lady. Usually ask the big boss's driver Xiao Lin to help, but now that Xiao Lin and the big boss's family are in Beijing, Aunt Dong casually called Shang Xiaoshu, who has always had a good relationship, and of course asked her to pick up her share of lo-mei by the way.

Originally, it was planned to be delivered on Sunday, but Shang Xiaoshu said that there was something at home that he couldn't leave on Sunday, and asked Aunt Dong if it was okay on Monday. Aunt Dong said that there was no problem, it was not urgent, the things were too heavy, otherwise she would take the bus by herself. If Shang Xiaoshu is busy, he will take the time to send her over at noon, just come back by herself, she hasn't been there for a while, chatting with the old man and the old lady, and taking the bus back in the afternoon. Don't delay Shang Xiaoshu's work.

Shang Xiaoshu hurriedly said that he would not delay things, knowing that Aunt Dong had been at the big boss's house for more than 20 years, and asked her to visit the big boss's old father and mother together, it was definitely not a matter of a bad driver.

On Monday, Shang Xiaoshu deliberately rushed early, went to the company to deal with things first, and picked up Aunt Dong and went straight to Chen Village as soon as he was busy. I have followed Chen Jiayi to play a few times before, although he has not been here for a while, Shang Xiaoshu is still familiar with the road to the Chen family's old house, no need to navigate, 20 minutes to the gate of the Chen family.

As a result, as soon as the car was parked, Shang Xiaoshu, who was carrying a large bag, heard Zhang Xiaocui's loud voice from the yard.

“…… Uncle and aunt, don't you say that this family should be foolish? The children are so old, what are they still divorced? This is really going to be divorced, my family Ding Yuan is fine, the male thirty-one flowers, and then find a teenage or twenty-year-old girl, what should I do with this Yike...... You have to take good care of her, even if you spoil the child, you can't be so spoiled......"

Shang Xiaoshu was dumbfounded when he saw Aunt Dong, and whispered, "This is Ding Yuan's mother."

Aunt Dong suddenly realized that she watched Chen Jiayi grow up, and she also knew about Chen Jiayi and Ding Yuan's marriage, and she also went to their wedding, but she didn't know that Ding Yuan had such a mother. Ran to the daughter-in-law's grandparents' house to complain about other people's granddaughters, what do you think?

Hearing a loud voice, I didn't hear Old Man Chen speak, Aunt Dong was a little strange, this is their father-in-law and mother-in-law who would rather not be far away, why did they let outsiders come to the door and casually count their eldest granddaughter at this time? However, Aunt Dong has always been self-aware, she accepts Ning Beiyuan's arrangement, and wants to come to see the old couple from time to time, knowing that other things have nothing to do with her.

Shang Xiaoshu felt that he still underestimated Zhang Xiaocui's combat effectiveness, he had just made trouble at her aunt's house yesterday, and he was able to run to the Chen family's old house to toss today. On Monday, it shouldn't have been brought by Ding Yuan.

Two people came in to take a look, and sure enough, there were three bamboo and rattan chairs in the courtyard, and there were three people sitting on them, Old Man Chen, Old Lady, and Zhang Xiaocui. Next to the old man stood a Chinese pastoral dog, and a group of chicks walked around at their feet.

Aunt Dong walked in front of Shang Xiaoshu and shouted from a distance, "Uncle Chen, Auntie, I've come to see you, I'll send you some food."

Zhang Xiaocui's voice stopped abruptly, Old Man Chen didn't move, and the old lady stood up, "It's Xiao Dong, I was still talking to your uncle yesterday that you didn't come for a while, and you came, and what did you send?" ”

shouted in the direction of the kitchen again, "Xiao Sun, don't be busy yet, Xiao Dong is here." Aunt Sun, the nanny at home, came out in response.

Shang Xiaoshu pretended not to see Zhang Xiaocui, and also stepped forward with Aunt Dong to greet the two old men, "Grandpa Chen, Grandma Chen, hello, I'm Shang Xiaoshu, do you remember me?" ”

She remembered that Chen Jiayi's grandparents were a few years older than her grandmother, but they were not yet 80. I haven't seen each other for a few years, the two old men are indeed a little older again, Old Man Chen has a cane, and Old Mrs. Chen's waist is more bent.

Old Man Chen and Old Lady Chen have a good memory, and when they recognized Shang Xiaoshu, the old lady smiled and said, "It's Xiaoshu, I haven't been here for a long time, right?" ”

Aunt Dong told the two old men that Shang Xiaoshu specially took the time to send her over today. took the plastic bags from Shang Xiaoshu's hands, introduced to the two old men what this is and what it is, some need to be frozen and some need to be refrigerated, and handed a large bag in his hand directly to Aunt Sun, "Sister Sun, this is the lo-mei I just made yesterday, pig's trotters, beef, chickens and ducks are available, and you can eat it when it is hot." ”

Aunt Sun also smiled and said to the old lady, "Every time this Xiao Dong comes, he brings his own dishes, which really saves me trouble." Then I'll cook more rice and stir-fry two more vegetarian dishes."

Shang Xiaoshu hurriedly told Aunt Sun that she didn't need to cook her food, she would leave immediately, and she would come to pick up Aunt Dong when the time was almost there. Unexpectedly, the old man Chen on the side spoke, "Stay for dinner, I have something to ask you later." ”

Old Man Chen would ask her something, Shang Xiaoshu couldn't think of it for a while, but he still nodded and agreed. Mr. Chen was born as a carpenter, and he has also made great contributions to his son's career, and now the traditional craftsmen of Chen's Furniture Factory are basically the apprentices and grandchildren of Mr. Chen.

A few people greeted and laughed like this for a while, Zhang Xiaocui wanted to interject several times but didn't plug in, and Shang Xiaoshu's dead girl pretended not to know her. She didn't know Aunt Dong, and at first thought she was a relative of the Chen family, but after listening for a while, she realized that it was the nanny of Chen Ercheng's family.

A babysitter is quite a big stance! Zhang Xiaocui instantly despised Shang Xiaoshu even more, even if she ran errands for the boss, she had to make a special trip to be a nanny as a driver, it was really lowly to go home.

Zhang Xiaocui was suddenly very aggrieved, she was Chen Jiayi's mother-in-law, and she was not as popular as a nanny in the eyes of the old couple of the Chen family. People are not taken seriously, even chickens come to bully, and a chicken cub looks at a small pom-pom on her shoes and stretches her neck to peck it. Zhang Xiaocui waved her hand a few times, but she walked away and came back to continue pecking, but the pom-pom didn't hit it, and it pecked directly on the surface of her feet.

Zhang Xiaocui was furious, slapped the chick a meter away, and shouted, "What are you doing?" I'm a bully, huh? ”

The voice startled the others, and it was impossible to ignore her. The old couple over there quickly pulled down their faces when they saw it.

Shang Xiaoshu secretly glimpsed the whole process, and almost laughed out loud when the chick chased and pecked at Zhang Xiaocui's feet. When I saw the chick cub that was slapped away by Zhang Xiaocui falling to the ground and screaming, I couldn't get up for a while. Shang Xiaoshu hurriedly walked over and rescued the little chick with his feet facing the sky.

An old hen on the side saw it, giggled and rushed to Shang Xiaoshu, seeing that Shang Xiaoshu was just helping the chick turn over, the chick limped to the hen. The old hen instantly shifted the target, spread her wings and flew to fly her child's Zhang Xiaocui, pecking indiscriminately.

All this happened very quickly, from Zhang Xiaocui fanning the chicken, Shang Xiaoshu rescuing the chicken, and the old hen rushing over to avenge the son, it all happened in an instant.

Zhang Xiaocui couldn't guard against it, and was pecked in the chin by the old hen, which was quite painful. He stood up at once, jumped into the vegetable patch next to him, and after blocking the old hen's attack again with his hands, he also saw the opportunity to give the lawless old hen a kick. In the chaos, he accidentally trampled two chicks to death on the spot.

Seeing the hen being beaten, the chick cub was trampled on the ground and lay still, and the two puppies next to him were not happy. One of their usual tasks is to take care of this group of chickens, they can bully, how can outsiders bully them? Rush up to help too. It's just that the owner didn't speak, they jumped and screamed around Zhang Xiaocui, and didn't really go up to bite.

The other people were stunned, and they forgot to step forward to stop it for a while. However, even if Shang Xiaoshu and Aunt Dong went up to stop it, the Chen family's chickens and dogs might not listen to them.

But Zhang Xiaocui was scared enough, and he was anxious and angry for a while, sitting in the vegetable field with his butt and howling in a loud voice, "My God, your Chen family is also bullying, you let the dog bite me to death...... At the beginning, Chen Jiayi first fell in love with my son, if it weren't for her, my son would not be a good civil servant, and what kind of business would he do? Now that business is not going well, it must be a ghost behind her, this is something that no one teaches in life......"

As soon as Zhang Xiaocui's words came out, the old Chen family trembled with anger, they have been respected for many years, and all they hear every day are flattery, where did they ever think that one day they would be scolded by others.
