After Xia Ling left, the hall fell silent for a while, Xia Jianye was slightly embarrassed, and opened his mouth to comfort Xia Zhi, but he didn't know what to say.

Yang Xinyi was happy in her heart, this dead girl threatened her with her previous things just now, and now she was dumped by Xia Ling, Yang Xinyi didn't want to mention how happy she was, and she wanted to wait for Xia Zhi to cook an egg for Xia Ling alone, and praise her.

Grandma Xia was a little unhappy, took Xia Zhi's hand, and comforted her gently, "Xiaoling's child is young and not familiar with you, don't be angry with her." ”

Xia Zhi knew that this was Grandma Xia comforting her, holding Grandma Xia's hand, Xia Zhi chuckled, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm not angry." ”

Yang Xinyi and Xia Jianye went to work one and went to the army by car.

On the way to work, Yang Xinyi met Hu Lina, who came to find her, Hu Lina looked at Yang Xinyi with eager eyes and asked anxiously, "How is it?" Is the summer solstice coming? ”

Although Yang Xinyi felt that this Hu Lina seemed to pay special attention to the summer solstice, she didn't think much about it, nodded and said, "It's here, and the old immortal in our family is also here, it's really annoying." ”

When Hu Lina heard that the summer solstice was coming, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows couldn't help but bring a little joy, and then asked Yang Xinyi, "Eldest sister, then do you think you can arrange for the two of you to meet?" ”

Hu Lina especially wanted to let Chen Jun and Xia Zhi's marriage be finalized, and even get married quickly, she was afraid of long nights and dreams, Xia Zhi came to the capital two years earlier than she remembered, and she and Gu Beicheng had just divorced, Gu Beicheng was still in the capital and did not leave, if Gu Beicheng and Xia Zhi met, then ......

As long as Hu Lina thought of the picture of the two of them meeting, her heart swelled with a knife-like pain, as long as Xia Zhi got married, even if Gu Beicheng saw Xia Solstice and liked Xia Solstice, it would be impossible for the two of them to be together in this life.

When Yang Xinyi heard Hu Lina's words, she couldn't help frowning and said, "Big sister, I know you are kind, but Xia Zhi's dead girl's temper is very stubborn, she was admitted to college, she wants to go to college, and now she doesn't want to get married." ”

Hu Lina knew that Yang Xinyi didn't want to see the summer solstice, so she rolled her eyes and said in a low voice, "Eldest sister, you must help, I told my aunt and cousin about this, and they also very much want to see this summer solstice, if you agree, you will definitely be indispensable." ”

Yang Xinyi is greedy for money, hearing Hu Lina say this, she thought about it and said, "It's easy to let them meet, but I don't dare to guarantee that the dead girl Xia Zhi will agree to this marriage." ”

Hu Lina immediately patted her chest and said, "Eldest sister, don't worry, I won't embarrass you, can you think it......'s okay for us to do this?"

Hu Lina leaned into Yang Xinyi's ear and lowered her voice, muttering for a while, Yang Xinyi nodded while listening, and then said, "Okay, let's do it." ”

After the matter was discussed, Yang Xinyi continued to go to work.

Hu Lina looked at Yang Xinyi's back, sneered twice, and secretly spat, then turned around and went home.

Only Xia Zhi and Mrs. Xia were left at home, Xia Zhi helped Mrs. Xia to sit on the sofa in the living room, and turned on the radio for the old lady, because Mrs. Xia had bad eyes, and Xia Zhi was not worried that she was at home alone, so Xia Zhi could only accompany Mrs. Xia at home.

Mrs. Xia was worried that her granddaughter would be bored at home, so she smiled and said, "Xia Zhi, you haven't been to this capital before, if you are bored at home, you can go out and go around, grandma has money here." ”

As she spoke, the old lady took out a stack of tickets from her pocket, all of which amounted to a few cents and a few cents, adding up to almost five or six yuan, and Mrs. Xia grabbed Xia Zhi's hand and wanted to stuff it into Xia Zhi's hand.

Xia Zhi hurriedly said, "Grandma, you can keep this money, I still have some money in my hand." ”

Mrs. Xia insisted on stuffing the money into Xia Zhi's hands, Xia Zhi knew that the old lady felt sorry for herself, so she didn't refuse the old lady's kindness.

Xia Zhi said to Mrs. Xia, "Grandma, I still have some meat stamps and food stamps in my hand, I'll go out and buy something." ”

Mrs. Xia smiled and said, "Go ahead, I can take care of myself." ”

Xia Zhi felt that he would come back soon after going shopping, so he nodded, turned around and left the Xia family.

Out of the door, Xia Zhi asked people about the location of the department store, Xia Zhi often went to the county seat when he was in his hometown before, although the county seat was not big, but she still found an opportunity to exchange the materials in the space for some food stamps and meat stamps.

Xia Zhi said to Mrs. Xia, in fact, she went to the back mountain to collect medicine and went to the commune to change it.

There are many people in the village who go to the back mountain to pick some herbs when they are not working, in exchange for some money or various bills, the old lady is just a little distressed about the summer solstice, but she doesn't suspect anything.

There are many department stores in the city than in the county, and there are more people in them, and when you walk in on the summer solstice, you will see a dazzling array of goods inside, many of which are good things that cannot be bought in the countryside.

Xia Zhi first used the money to buy half a catty of fruit candy and another catty of pork, and when she first arrived, Xia Zhi didn't want to buy too many things, lest Yang Xinyi hit her with her idea.

Summer Solstice bought only sugar and meat and left the department store.

Xia Zhi went home after shopping, and Mrs. Xia was still sitting on the sofa.

Hearing the sound of the door, Mrs. Xia looked over, although she couldn't see it, but just by listening to the sound, she could hear that it was Xia Solstice coming back.

Mrs. Xia smiled and said, "You kid is out, why don't you play for a while?" ”

Xia Zhi smiled and said, "Grandma, I went to the department store and bought some sugar, and a pound of meat, let's stew meat." ”

Mrs. Xia was very happy, and nodded again and again, "Okay, your child is too thin, you should eat more meat to make up for it." ”

Xia Zhi smiled, then took out a fruit candy, peeled off the sugar coating, stuffed it into the mouth of an old lady, and said with a smile, "Grandma eats sugar." Then he grabbed a large handful of candy and stuffed it into Grandma Xia's pocket, "Grandma, you eat these sweets slowly." ”

The faint sweet and fragrant taste of the sweet fruit candy, Mrs. Xia's face turned into a chrysanthemum, and she said to Xia Zhi, "You kid, why are you giving me so much sugar?" Keep it for yourself. ”

Mrs. Xia said, about to stuff the sugar in her pocket back into Xia Zhi's hand, Xia Zhi pushed it back with a smile, "Grandma, I'll keep it for myself," After speaking, she carried the meat into the kitchen.

There are several potatoes on the kitchen floor, and the summer solstice washes the potatoes, peels them and cuts them into pieces, intending to have a braised pot.

After the meal was cooked, Xia Zhi said to Mrs. Xia, "Grandma, you can eat first." ”

Old Lady Xia waved her hand and said, "Wait a little longer." ”

After a while, the sound of bicycles came from outside, and Xia Aiguo and Xia Aiguo pushed the door from the outside and entered the house laughing.

As soon as they entered the house, they smelled the smell of meat, Xia Aiguo was older, it was okay, Xia Aiguo was young, he looked like a greedy cat, he shrugged his nose, saliva almost flowed down, and his eyes widened in surprise and shouted to Xia Aiguo in surprise, "Brother, I smell meat, is our family eating meat today?" ”

Xia Aiguo saw Xia Zhi and Grandma Xia sitting at the table, looking at him with a smile, and still a little embarrassed to shout, "Grandma, eldest sister." ”

Xia Zhi smiled and nodded in agreement, and then said, "Let's go wash my hands and eat, today I went to the department store to buy a pound of meat and came back." ”

When Xia Aidang heard that there was really meat to eat, he immediately shouted happily, "Eldest sister, you are so good!" After speaking, he couldn't wait to wash his hands, and Xia Aiguo was also full of anticipation.

Because Yang Xinyi puts her mother's family first, she would rather suffer herself than help her mother's family, so the life of the children of the Xia family is not easy, and they may not be able to eat meat once a month.

After the two brothers washed their hands and sat at the table, Xia Zhi smiled and said to the two, "Grandma is old, I will pick out some potatoes and fatty meat for grandma, and we will eat the rest." ”

Grandma Xia said again and again, "I'll just eat a few potatoes, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Xia Aiguo and Xia Aiguo nodded again and again, and had no opinion.

Xia Zhi took a small bowl, picked some potatoes into it, and found several large pieces of oily fatty meat, the lean meat is more firewood, and the old lady can't bite it, and people in this era are short of oil and water in their stomachs, so they don't have to worry about the problem of three highs.

Xia Zhi knew that people in this era had a big appetite, and they were afraid that they would not have enough to eat, so they stewed five large potatoes with a pound of meat, which was a big pot.

When Xia Aiguo announced that he could eat, Xia Aiguo was still a little reserved, Xia Aiguo was really like a starving ghost reincarnated, the little man finally ate four nests, Xia Aiguo ate five, Xia Zhi ate one, Mrs. Xia ate two, and most of the vegetables in a pot went into Xia Aiguo and Xia Aiguo's stomach.

After eating, Xia Aiguo was still a little embarrassed to take the initiative to stand up and say to Xia Zhi, "Sister, I'll go brush the pots and dishes." With that, he went into the kitchen with a bowl.

Xia Aidang also said sensibly, "Eldest sister, I'll help my eldest brother." ”

After eating a meal, the two of them were obviously closer to Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi also saw two people take the initiative to go to the kitchen to wash the pots and dishes, and after the two cleaned the kitchen, Xia Zhi stuffed them with two fruit candies, and said with a smile, "Take it and eat it." ”

Xia Aiguo scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Thank you, eldest sister." ”

Xia Aidang couldn't wait to remove the sugar coating, stuffed a piece of sugar into his mouth, and smiled brightly, "Thank you, eldest sister." ”

The two children didn't take a nap after eating, so they just wanted to go out to play, before leaving, Xia Aiguo hesitated and asked Xia Zhi, "Sister, do you want to play with us?" ”

Xia Aidang blinked a pair of big eyes, looked at Xia Zhi with a smile, and warmly invited, "Sister, let's go play with us, we're going to go boating in the afternoon, it's fun." ”

Xia Zhi refused with a smile, "I won't go, you are boys, it is inconvenient for me to go." ”

Xia Aiguo waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we usually take girls to play together." ”

Xia Zhi still shook his head, "Another day." ”

Xia Aiguo nodded, "Okay then." After speaking, he went out with Xia Aidang, got on his bicycle and ran.

Grandma Xia asked Xia Zhi with a smile, "You kid, why don't you go to play with them?" ”

Xia Zhi walked over to Mrs. Xia and sat down, "Grandma, I'm a little sleepy and want to sleep for a while." ”

Old Mrs. Xia nodded, "Okay, grandma happens to be sleepy too." ”

The old lady helped Xia on the second floor of the room on the summer solstice, although it was a little stuffy, but Xia Zhi didn't rest well last night, and she was really sleepy today, and she fell asleep after a while.

However, because the room was too stuffy, Mrs. Xia couldn't sleep, and she didn't dare to turn over for fear of disturbing her granddaughter's rest.

After getting up on the summer solstice in the afternoon, I helped Mrs. Xia out for a spin, and when they got home, Yang Xinyi had already returned.

As soon as Xia Zhi helped the old lady go home, Yang Xinyi slapped the table viciously, pointed at Xia Zhi and scolded, "What about potatoes? What about potatoes? Did you eat it? Five potatoes that big is enough for us to eat for several days, how can you eat so much? I can't eat it in one meal, and the starving ghost is reincarnated? ”

Old Lady Xia held Xia Zhi's hand tightly, and the smile on her face couldn't be seen, Xia Zhi almost exploded with anger, glared back without timidity, and said loudly, "Even if we eat, what can you do?" ”

"You deduct all that money and food stamps from your grandmother, and you don't know how many potatoes you can buy? If you dare to shout here, I'll call my dad right now and tell him about your deduction of grandma's food stamps and money. ”

Yang Xinyi listened to Xia Zhi's words, her face turned red with anger, this matter really caught Yang Xinyi's weakness, if Xia Jianye knew that she had been deducting the food stamps and money of the old immortal all these years, she would definitely quarrel with her.

Yang Xinyi glared at Xia Zhi viciously, thinking of what was next, she barely suppressed her anger, pointed at Xia Zhi and said, "Don't threaten me, make me anxious, just say it if you like, I'm not afraid." ”

Xia Zhi laughed twice, knowing that Yang Xinyi at this time was just a fierce inward-looking.

Yang Xinyi glared at Xia Zhi and Old Lady Xia, and warned, "Eat less in the future, it will not be easy at home." ”

After Yang Xinyi finished speaking, she turned around and went into the kitchen to cook.

Xia Zhi helped Mrs. Xia sit on the sofa, Xia Zhi could feel that Mrs. Xia was angry, so Xia Zhi comforted, "Grandma, don't be angry, if you are angry, I will tell Dad about her deduction of your food stamps and money, and Dad will definitely teach her a lesson for you." ”

Old Mrs. Xia shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't live long, so I won't trouble them." ”

Xia Zhi looked at Mrs. Xia's aggrieved appearance, and felt a little distressed, "Grandma, you can't get used to her all the time, so that she won't be even worse in the future." ”

"You are an elder, she has not been filial to you for so many years, forget it, and deduct your food and money, now that you are old, living here for a while, her eyes are not eyes, her nose is not a nose, give you a look, if I go to school in the future, leave you at home, she will not care."

According to Xia Zhi's meaning, it is best to make trouble about this matter, let Xia Jianye teach Yang Xinyi a hard lesson, so that Yang Xinyi will not dare to be so excessive, and be filial to the old lady in the future.

This is because the old lady is old, and she feels that she will not live long, she always thinks about her family and everything, and she doesn't want to make trouble for her son and daughter-in-law.

The idea of the older generation is actually very simple, they would rather suffer and suffer their own sins and grievances than make trouble for their children.

Xia Zhi couldn't blame the old lady with her own position, she just felt sorry for the old lady, but now that Mrs. Xia insisted, Xia Zhi didn't say anything.

"Knock knock" There was a knock on the door outside, if someone from the Xia family came back, they would open the door directly and come in, it shouldn't be someone from the Xia family who came back, so Xia Zhi stood up and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Xia Zhi saw a beautiful woman and a young man standing outside the door.

Xia Zhi was stunned when he saw the two of them, and Hu Lina and Chen Jun outside the door were also stunned when they saw Xia Zhi.

When Hu Lina saw Xia Zhi, she thought of her own tragic experience in her previous life, and her eyes when she looked at Xia Zhi couldn't help but have a little resentment.

This deep malice was soon noticed by Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi looked at the woman in front of him suspiciously, and always felt that this woman's eyes were particularly unkind to her, but she had just come to the capital and didn't know her, how could this woman be hostile to herself?

And Chen Jun's eyes were straight when he looked at Xia Zhi, he felt that he had never seen such a beautiful girl, his skin was as white as snow, a pair of big round eyes, black and white were clearly very aura, a straight little nose, a ruddy little mouth, and a slender and graceful figure, which made Chen Jun swallow his saliva unconsciously, and his eyes gradually became hot.

Chen Jun's eyes were too explicit, looking at Xia Zhi a little uncomfortable, he turned to Gao Sheng and asked Yang Xinyi in the kitchen, "Aunt Yang, there are guests coming." ”

Yang Xinyi knew that it should be Hu Lina and Chen Jun who were coming, so she hurriedly ran out of the kitchen and looked at the door, and sure enough, it was Hu Lina and Chen Jun.

Xia Zhi saw Yang Xinyi come out, nodded politely at Hu Lina and Chen Jun, turned around and left, she didn't like the two people outside the door, and instinctively felt rejection in her heart.

Yang Xinyi greeted Hu Lina and Chen Jun warmly, "You guys are here, I've been waiting for you for a while, come in, come in." ”

Yang Xinyi greeted the two of them while carefully looking at Chen Jun, Chen Jun is about 1.75 meters tall, weighs about 130 pounds, has a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is the type of appearance that people generally like in this era.

Hu Lina took two steps behind and whispered in Yang Xinyi's ear, "How is it?" My cousin is good! ”

Yang Xinyi's eyes lit up, and she nodded again and again, "She looks good, if it weren't for the fact that my Lingzi is too young, I would really want to marry our Lingzi to your cousin." ”

Hearing Yang Xinyi's words, Hu Lina laughed twice and didn't speak, but she thought in her heart that what happened to Xia Ling in her previous life seemed to be inferior to her, especially after Xia Ling got married and gave birth to a child, she worked as a cow and a horse in the Zhang family, and her body was as fat as a pig, Hu Lina couldn't help but look disgusted every time she saw it.

Chen Jun stood next to the sofa in the living room, staring directly at Xia Zhi who was sitting next to Mrs. Xia, his eyes did not blink, Xia Zhi was frowned at for a while, looked at him coldly, and his voice was cold, "What do you think I am doing?" ”

Chen Jun was very happy to see Xia Zhi talking to him, and couldn't help but laugh, "Of course you are good-looking, so I look at you." ”

Chen Jun's family conditions are relatively good, and there are many girls in the factory who like him, Chen Jun is a relatively frivolous person, and he often jokes with some girls in the factory, but he didn't expect to laugh after seeing the summer solstice.

Xia Zhi's face turned cold when he heard this, "It's rude!" ”

Chen Jun heard Xia Zhi's cold face and say that he was rude, so he was a little annoyed and wanted to lose his temper.

The girls who used to joke and joke with her basically talked to Chen Jun, after all, Chen Jun's family conditions are good, and Commander Chen is not bad, and many girls want to marry him, so they have also developed Chen Jun's arrogant temperament.

However, when Chen Jun saw Xia Zhi's face, he suppressed the anger in his heart again, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Sister, don't be angry, brother, I don't mean anything else, I just think you are beautiful." ”

"If you think I've offended you, will my brother invite you to the movies tonight? Do you like popcorn and soda? My brother will buy you some of the same, and ice cream. ”

"What movies do you like to watch?"

"Brother, I'm amazing," Chen Jun shamelessly praised himself, "You can watch any movie you want." ”

Xia Zhi almost laughed when he heard these conditions proposed by Chen Jun, maybe because of the conditions of this era, these things proposed by Chen Jun are all good things, and many girls will be rare, but Xia Zhi came from the later generations, she has seen many good things, can she be rare with these things?

So, Xia Zhi refused without hesitation, "No need, I don't want to go." ”

I don't want to go with this nasty strange man.

Xia Zhi turned around after speaking, but she could still feel Chen Jun's gaze, staring at her back.

At this time, Yang Xinyi and Hu Lina also came over, Hu Lina put away the resentment and resentment in her eyes, sat on the sofa and smiled, looked at Xia Zhi and praised against her will, "This sister is so beautiful, I heard Sister Yang say that you just came from the countryside, I'm afraid you are not familiar with the capital, I am good friends with Sister Yang, if you want, how about I take you around the capital tomorrow?" ”

"There are a lot of fun places in our capital, not only fun, but also delicious Western restaurants, have you ever been there?"

"Do you know the old man? Lao Mo is the best western restaurant in our capital, if you don't like to eat western food, then let's go and eat shabu mutton, the mutton is tender. ”

Xia Zhi has not only eaten Western food, but also went to Europe, eaten the most authentic Western food, and also ate the world's most expensive Kobe beef.

As for the hot pot mutton shabu, this is a home-cooked meal for the summer solstice, she can eat it whenever she wants, and even there are a lot of hot pot seasonings and fresh mutton beef in the space now.

Hu Lina sat upright, talking about this, she was proud, she wanted to see the envy on Xia Zhi's face, but she didn't expect that Xia Zhi was unmoved, and said lightly, "I'm sorry, I don't like to go to dinner with people I don't know." ”

Hu Lina's face stiffened, she didn't expect Xia Zhi to be so faceless, Yang Xinyi was about to speak, but Xia Zhi stared at Hu Lina and Yang Xinyi a few times, suddenly smiled, and then said to Hu Lina, "You just called Aunt Yang the eldest sister, but called me the younger sister, what is the theory of this generation?" ”

After speaking, Xia Zhi saw Hu Lina's stiff face and smiled brightly at Hu Lina, "You and Aunt Yang are good friends, then I can't take advantage of calling you sister, I'll call you aunt." ”

"Hello Auntie!"
