Facing the expectant eyes of the little tiger father, Li Zheng no longer sold Guanzi, and said with a smile: "Promise." ”

"Promise?" Little Tiger Daddy was puzzled, "That thing can work?" ”

"Why not." Li Zheng touched his beard, "A manly man, it's hard to chase after a word, and he can't even fulfill his promises, what kind of man is he!" ”

"Uncle, I didn't mean that." Xiaohu's father was anxious, "I mean, just go and say to Sister-in-law Yan for no reason, 'I'm willing to give you a promise', can it work?" His face suddenly turned red

Hong, "This sounds quite ambiguous, won't she be coaxed out?" ”

"Bang bang." Li Zheng cleared his throat in embarrassment, "You kid thinks a little too much, but it's not unreasonable." ”

"That ......"

"You can go and tell Yan'er." Li Zheng touched his beard again, "She's a little girl, it's not in the way." ”

"Well, then I'll go back and talk to the brothers." After speaking, the little tiger father left in a hurry.

As for why this promise was not given to Xia Huai, this was something that the simple little tiger father had never thought about, and even later, the villagers of the entire Bianxi Village did not think about it.

Is it useful to think so much, just listen honestly to the correct arrangement.

Li Zheng looked into the distance meaningfully, he was originally going to give these promises to Xia Yan.

He had a hunch that this little girl would definitely be able to do something earth-shattering in the future.

But the road ahead may not be smooth, although their Bianxi Village is not big, it can also hold up a small piece of sky for her.

Let him, and all the villagers, be a paving stone on her way.

Hopefully, she can be like her dad and never disappoint.

Although most people are worried about gifts, Mu Fan is not included in most of them.

That night, in Mu Fan's study, No. 1 stood aside respectfully and replied to Mu Fan: "Your Highness, the congratulatory gift you want to give to Miss Xia Yan has been prepared. ”

"Hmm."

"Your Highness, do you want to send it personally?"

"Of course." Mu Fan suddenly raised his neck, raised his chin and said.

No. 1 watched his neck move around in puzzlement, and finally couldn't help it, and boldly asked, "Your Highness, do you have neck cramps?" ”

"Get out!"

Time passed in everyone's expectations, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of the housewarming banquet.

Early in the morning, Xiaohu Niang consciously brought a group of village women to help Yan's family.

After setting up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks in the open space outside the gate in advance, the little tiger lady took them to cook.

And Yan led Xia Yan and Xia Huai to stand at the door of the new house to greet the guests.

It didn't take long for the villagers to arrive.

These villagers who came to Daohe had one thing in common: they were empty-handed.

Although Xia Yan didn't care about whether there were congratulatory gifts or not, everyone seemed to be discussing, and they were all empty-handed, which was a bit intriguing.

But at this time, Xia Yan was not good at asking questions, so he could only endure the doubts in his heart and accept everyone's congratulations.

"Sister-in-law Yan, congratulations."

"Sister-in-law Yan, you are also considered to be extremely Tailai, congratulations."

"Sister-in-law, little brother wishes you all the best and good luck."

……

Some people also asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, have you finished moving everything, do you need us to help?" ”

Yan hadn't been so happy for a long time, and in the face of everyone's concern, she smiled lightly and replied softly: "It's been moved, and there aren't many things, only."

I brought some clothes and everything else was fresh. ”

This smile stunned the people around him.

Her smile is as soft as the catkins in the spring breeze in March, which is refreshing.

It is more like the first bloom of the lily, the peony is in full bloom, and there is a trace of nobility in the cordial, which is so beautiful that people are intoxicated, but there is no trace of lightness in the thought.

Only then did they recall that when the Yan family first came to the village, how many people were fascinated by her, so much so that they were a little disgusted when they saw their own wretched wife.

After Xia Xinhe's death, most of the reasons why Yan was not popular was because of her appearance.

Just ask, what wife is willing to watch her husband talk about other women all day long?

Therefore, for so many years in Bianxi Village, the Yan family did not even have a female friend who could talk, and they wished that she would be far away from their home.

Yan understands their thoughts very well, so he never complains about them, but keeps himself clean and nests at home with the children, never causing trouble.

As a result, Xia Yan's family's sense of existence in the village became weaker and weaker, and in the end, the young men who were obsessed with the Yan family even forgot that such a beauty still lived in the village.

But today's Yan family, under the increasing nourishment of the spiritual spring, has gradually returned to the appearance when it first came.

For today's housewarming banquet, she also deliberately dressed up briefly.

Coupled with the getting better and better mental outlook recently, she seems to be a little more beautiful than back then.

Seeing that his mother was stared at by a group of people who were either surprised, obsessed or jealous, Xia Huai's face darkened, and he raised his foot and took a step forward to block Yan's body.

Now Xia Huai's size has caught up with the Yan clan who is about one meter six and five, coupled with his body that has gradually become thicker after many days of training, it is just right to block the Yan clan behind him

Strict and solid.

"Uncles and aunts, please take a seat." Xia Huai made a gesture of invitation and pointed to the table and chair behind him, "My mother is a little tired, I'll send her back to the house to rest." ”

At this time, everyone realized their gaffe and quickly came back to their senses to confess to Yan.

Yan just smiled indifferently and didn't take it to heart.

She also knew that if she stayed here, she would cause trouble, so she didn't stay, and followed Xia Huai back to the house, leaving Xia Yan alone to greet the guests.

said that it was hospitality, but in fact, people had already arrived, and Xia Yan had nothing to do, so he could only stick there with a smile on his face.

After counting the number of people who had already taken the seat, he made a face to the surroundings.

Suddenly, most of the villagers got up and rushed up to surround Xia Yan.

"You...... What are you going to do? Xia Yan was shocked by the crowd that suddenly surrounded her, but she still pretended to be calm and looked at everyone, "Are you dissatisfied with Yan'er?" ”

"No...... No, Yan'er, you misunderstood. Li Zheng struggled to push through the crowd and looked at them angrily, "What are you panicking one by one, don't you see the scared Yan'er?" Really,

It's not that it's enough to send a few representatives, what does it mean to be surrounded by such a swarm? Are you trying to make trouble? ”

This scolding made these dozens of croppers a little embarrassed, and they all blushed and couldn't stop apologizing to Xia Yan.

Little Tiger Dad scratched his head in embarrassment: "Uncle, we want to elect a representative according to your wishes, but everyone wants to express their intentions to Yan'er in person, and they are scrambling to be representatives."

, almost fought over this. So...... So in the end, I didn't choose a famous hall, so I had to let everyone come. ”

"Hmph, I can't even do this little thing, don't say it's from my Bianxi Village when I go out." Li Zheng hated that iron could not be made of steel.

Although Li Zheng complained a lot, he understood the villagers' behavior very well, so he stopped scolding them and said to them: "Little Tiger Daddy stays, everyone else does."

Sit me back in my place. ”

It wasn't until everyone retreated in a huff that Xia Yan realized that these people were basically the heads of each family.

She knew they must have something very important to say to her.

"Grandpa Lizheng, what the hell is going on to make such a big move." Although he was very curious, Xia Yan was still not impatient and looked at Li Zheng with a smile.

"Yan'er, didn't you notice that the people who came today were empty-handed?" Li Zheng pointed to the person sitting there, "Aren't you angry?" ”

"I found it." Xia Yan kept smiling, "But there's nothing to be angry about, it's the best gift for everyone to come to my house to cheer up, Yan'er knows everyone's minds, so."

It really doesn't matter to Yan'er whether she takes something or not, as long as everyone is happy. ”

"The little girl is really good at talking." Li Zheng looked at Xia Yan with satisfaction, his eyes full of appreciation.

Originally, I thought that a group of people would come to the door empty-handed, eat and drink for nothing, and no matter how pot-bellied people were, they would complain, not to mention that she was a seven-year-old child, and it was normal to be reluctant

Target.

didn't expect her to have such a mind at such a young age, which is really surprising.

Li Zheng couldn't help but shake his head, he actually underestimated her again.

With her broad mind, this girl's future must be immeasurable, and it seems that her treasure is in the right place.

Li Zheng, who felt that he had done enough of the mystery, no longer sold Guanzi, he touched his beard and said with a smile: "Yan'er, although you don't care about gifts, you don't care about anything

Send them to your house to eat and drink for nothing, where will the faces of our group of people go? This gift is still there. ”

Xia Yan didn't answer, just looked at Li Zheng with a pair of good-looking eyes, looking forward to the gift he said.

"In the past, your family lived a hard life, everyone saw it, but no one helped you, it was our fault. Now your family's life is getting better and better, it's all you

Our own abilities. Li Zheng touched Xia Yan's head, "But no one can understand human nature, and if you can't keep it, there will be anyone who doesn't open your eyes and wants to take away your family business." village

I can't control the people outside, the old man, but I can still talk in this village. ”

Then he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Xia Yan, "The old man has asked everyone here to press their handprints on this piece of paper, if anyone in the village wants to seize your family business,

Then this man will never be allowed to set foot in the village. If someone from outside the village comes to make it bad, the old man will take everyone to fight with him to the death! ”

Although Li Zheng's tone was flat when he spoke, as casual as chatting about family life, Xia Yan knew that he must have put a lot of effort into this piece of paper.

Xia Yan was completely moved by Li Zheng's words, she opened the paper in her hand with tears in her eyes, looked at the handprints that were pressed, and couldn't control her emotions anymore

and burst into tears.
