After appeasing Zhu Xiu'er, Jiao Niang hurried to buy vegetables again, and came back to ask Zhu Xiu'er to help pick vegetables and take care of them together.

Braised pork ribs, pork belly chicken soup, steamed fish, scrambled vegetables, scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Zhu Xiu'er looked at it and shook her head: "I just came to your house to take refuge, what you eat, I will eat too, you don't have to cook so many dishes for me." ”

Jiao Niang laughed: "My family entertains guests tonight." Why do I have to do so much by yourself? Zhu Xiu'er knew that she was thinking too much when she heard this, and she couldn't help blushing.

After a few dishes were cooked, it was almost evening, and Jiao Niang rushed to the store, and Xin Ping took Ye Wenzhou to pick up Chen Baiyi and Yan Yijun's house for dinner.

As soon as several men entered the house, they saw Zhu Xiu'er standing in the hall beautifully. Xin Ping couldn't help frowning, remembering the appearance of Jiao Niang's busy feet not touching the ground today.

"Miss Xiu'er, after all, you are an unmarried woman, and it is not appropriate to share the table with us. Why don't you take some food to the back room and eat it! Xin Ping knew why Zhu Xiu'er came from Jiao Niang, and he felt that Zhu Xiu'er was too willful. Leaving like this made Uncle Zhu's family worried. So Xin Ping's tone was naturally not much better.

Zhu Xiu'er, who was originally smiling, was immediately injured when Xin Ping said this, and immediately took a few steps back injured, tears flashed in her eyes, and she whispered: "Got it." He picked up his rice bowl and ran into the back room.

Ye Wenzhou's face was gloomy and said, "Who is this woman?" Why don't you understand any etiquette? ”

"It's Jiao Niang's handkerchief in the past, and she is kind to us. Now that I have encountered a difficulty, I have come to our house to take refuge. Xin Ping said with a wry smile.

"If there is kindness, there is no way, and people have to repay kindness. Come, everyone! Try my niece's handiwork. Ye Wenzhou secretly made up his mind in his heart to take Brother Xin's three children away and stay away from these messy people!

The dishes were all hot in the pot, and the wine was also cooked for them, and Xin Ping went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes and wine.

"Ye Wenzhou, you old boy are blessed. I haven't had a family all my life, and I actually have a niece with such a good craft. You're going to be blessed in the future! No, your niece is also my niece, and I will go to live at your house in the future......" Chen Baiyi tasted the dishes made by Jiao Niang, and then said exaggeratedly.

Ye Wenzhou also had an expression of honor when he heard someone praising Jiao Niang so much, but he was a little unhappy when he heard that Chen Baiyi wanted Jiao Niang to cook: "You are so old and still so jumpy, my nephews and nieces have nothing to do with you." In the future, I will bring them all back to Luonan, Xin Ping will be put in the army for training, and Xin An will find a gentleman to teach well. Jiao Niang is a girl's family, so she naturally has to be pampered at home, and find a good husband for her in the future. ”

Chen Baiyi's eyes purred, he looked at Yan Yijun with a wicked smile and pretended to be curious: "What kind of husband are you looking for Jiao Niang?" How is my store? is the same age, and I definitely don't dare to bully Jiao Niang with me. ”

Yan Yijun was eating, and when he heard this, he accidentally broke off the chopsticks in his hand, and he quietly threw the chopsticks on the ground, pretending that nothing had happened.

Others didn't notice Chen Baiyi but kept staring at Yan Yijun, seeing his movements, Chen Baiyi couldn't hold back a smile and couldn't help it until his shoulders shook.

Ye Wenzhou shook his head and refused directly: "Your father-in-law is too out of tune, so forget it." ”

Chen Baiyi stopped smiling at this time, he argued: "Life is with my family, and he is honest and calm ...... my family."

On the 13th of last month, he and others got into a fight in the street for the sake of being a prostitute. also broke someone's head, and you asked me to go to the yamen to help you intercede. Yan Yijun's tone calmly interrupted Chen Baiyi's self-selling boast.

"Then I'm afraid that Chen Gongzi is not suitable for Jiao Niang, Jiao Niang's country girl has never known that the sky is high and the earth is thick, her temper is very stubborn, and she can't rub sand in her eyes." Xin Ping's words were filled with his sister, but he resolutely rejected Chen Baiyi.

Chen Bai blew his beard angrily and glared: "Yan Yijun, you look silent, you are secretly evil, despicable!" Shameless! ”

"I said it in front of you." Yan Yijun still has that cold tone, which is what makes it even more annoying.

"Okay, okay, say a few jokes, don't hurt the peace, eat vegetables! Xin Ping, quickly pour wine for the guests......" Ye Wenzhou saw that the two of them were about to fight, so he quickly got up to accompany the laughter and mediation.

Although a few people were noisy, the meal was enjoyable. Especially Chen Baiyi drank too much, and finally asked Yan Yijun and Ye Wenzhou to go back with him.

Jiao Niang was tired when she got home, and she wanted to sleep well, but when she opened the door, she saw Zhu Xiu'er sitting on her bed crying.

"Xiu'er, what's wrong with you?" Jiao Niang cheered up and took Zhu Xiu'er's hand and asked.

Zhu Xiu'er's eyes were red, and she looked at Jiao Niang helplessly: "Jiao Niang, am I very annoying?" ”

"No, I think you're nice and cute. Don't think about it, I'll arrange things in the store tomorrow, and find a time to accompany you back to Panyun Village to explain it to your parents. It's not a problem if you don't go home like that. Jiao Niang gently comforted Zhu Xiu'er, she thought that Zhu Xiu'er was still worried about marriage. didn't know that Zhu Xiuer had made up her mind to make a last stand for her love......

Before dawn, Xin Ping pushed a cart of vegetables into the house, moved the vegetables, and Xin Ping pushed the cart out again, ready to transport sweet potatoes back. Jiao Niang, the mother and daughter of the Lin family have already gotten up early and started to prepare for what the shop is going to sell today.

"That girl is still sleeping?" When she was busy working in the kitchen, Widow Lin couldn't help but ask Jiao Niang.

"I cried all the time last night, and I went to bed quite late. I didn't call her when I saw that she was sleeping soundly. Jiao Niang smiled, and the faint dark circles under her eyes were very eye-catching on her fair face.

"This girl is too uneasy, now there are so many homeless people outside, she actually dares to run when she says to run. I'm not afraid of accidents! Widow Lin was not only dissatisfied with Zhu Xiu'er coming to make trouble for Jiao Niang, but also compared her heart to her heart, she could imagine how anxious Aunt Zhu was now.

Jiao Niang couldn't help frowning, she was busy with the things of the shop these days, and she often heard others talk about the homeless people. It is said that the town of Panxi does not allow displaced people to enter the town now, and it is not known what the situation outside the town is.

"Mother, do you think there will be a mess?" Lin Ruyi couldn't help but hear the conversation between the two, she heard the old man in the village say that when there was a famine in the past, those homeless people were no different from hungry beasts.

"Don't talk nonsense. The relief food of the imperial court has long been distributed outside the towns. After this paragraph, it must be fine. Widow Lin didn't care, for most people, as long as disaster didn't befall them, they wouldn't worry so much.
