Xie Wang and Lin went to boil water, Xie Xuan combed her double bun, brushed her teeth with a toothbrush dipped in green salt, washed her hands with bath beans, and wiped her face with grease.

At this time, the sky was dark, the east was white, and the stars in the sky were gradually disappearing.

Xie Xuan put on her grandmother's old cotton jacket, got on a mule cart, and went to Zhuangzi with Xie Qingshan, Lin and Qiu Niang.

The road surface was frozen and hard, the withered grass around was covered with thick hoarfrost, and a few people were talking in the car, constantly spewing out white mist.

Xie Qingshan drove the mule cart and soon arrived at Zhuangzi, where the workers were still sleeping.

Lin and Qiu Niang hurriedly got out of the car and started cooking. Xie Pingtian and Xie Ping'an heard it, got out of the quilt, and lit a fire for the Lin family and Qiu Niang.

Breakfast in this part of Zhangde Mansion has always been simple, Lin and Qiu Niang quickly boiled two large pots of water, poured a few bowls of millet sorghum, stirred a bowl of white flour to thicken when it was almost cooked, distilled multigrain steamed buns in the pot grate when boiling water, and put a few bowls of pickled pickles for everyone to eat.

Soon, the workers were all up to go.

So some men went to the well to draw water, washed their faces, and brought a bowl to eat.

Xie Xuan watched from the side, and saw that everyone was a bowl of porridge and two multigrain steamed buns, which were as big as Xie Xuan's face. The workers basically put a few chopsticks and pickles in the porridge or in the steamed buns, drink the porridge, eat the steamed buns, and eat them quickly, and there is basically nothing left.

"Auntie, do you have meat, I've been hungry for meat these days!" Suddenly, a grinning voice said, Xie Xuan turned his head to look, it turned out to be Lin Chun, the son of Lin Hai, the second brother of the Lin family, who was talking next to the Lin family with a bowl.

"Don't you have meat for lunch every day? Why are you still hungry? Lin said with a smile, and the spoon under his hand neatly gave Lin Chun's empty bowl full of filling, and handed him two big steamed buns.

"Aunt, some people, where is enough to eat? I can't eat enough every time......" Lin Chun walked around the Lin family, and when he saw that there was no one next to him, he whispered: "Aunt, you secretly leave me a bowl of meat when you cook, I am growing my body, and I am very hungry......"

Lin Shi showed a look of embarrassment.

On the one hand, she feels sorry for her nephew, but on the other hand, she doesn't want to do things for business and private because of selfishness, and be known, even if she doesn't talk about her to her face, she will be shameless.

Lin is a person who cares about face, so he didn't dare to respond immediately.

"Aunt, can't you answer me for this little thing? I just want to eat a bowl of meat, just embarrassed? Seeing that Lin didn't agree immediately, Lin Chun's face fell, and he said in a somewhat rushed tone.

"This is Brother Tsubaki!" Xie Xuan stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's not easy for Brother Chun to eat meat? When Zhuangzi finishes work, he will go to my house as a guest, and he can eat as much as he wants! Don't talk about a bowl of meat, I'm afraid you'll have to break your belly! ”

Seeing that Lin Chun ignored her, Xie Xuan didn't care about his face, and then said: "But you can't leave it to you secretly in Zhuangzi, there is a charter for everything, and I want to leave it for you, what is this?" This is a loss of public fat and privacy, so that others will find out, shout out, where will my big face be placed! ”

"It's just a bowl of meat, and it hurts the public and private? You kept it secretly, so that others could see it, wouldn't it? Besides, even if others find out, this meat is originally owned by the Kai family, and you can leave it to whoever you want! I am my aunt's nephew, my aunt left me meat, what can others say? ”

Lin Chun said to Xie Xuan with a lost face, but his eyes glanced at the Lin family.

Xie Xuan was angry in his heart, and said secretly, it is with people like you that there are so many smart people in society who take advantage of loopholes, do not abide by the rules, and always want to exploit the loopholes of the rules for their own benefit, and the society will be much cleaner without this number of people!

Xie Xuan held back her strength and scolded him a few words: "You also know that this meat belongs to my family, since it belongs to my family, I can give this meat to whoever I want!" Right now, we want to distribute fairly, no one is too much, no one is too much, you have to obey! As the nephew of my eldest concubine, you don't think about your aunt, but you always think about favoritism, if outsiders know about pointing fingers at my eldest concubine, it is obviously for your good, but it will make my eldest concubine lose face! You're a nephew, is this going to hurt your aunt? ”

Lin Chun's face turned purple when he was blocked, and he couldn't think of anything for a while when he wanted to refute, so he could only stare at Xie Xuan fiercely, trying to scare her away.

Just as the Lin family whispered to persuade him, he saw the Lin family's eldest brother Lin Shan, second brother Linhai, and nephew Lin Zhu coming over, and when they saw Lin Chun's fierce face, they asked what happened.

Lin Chun was just about to fool the past, but Xie Xuan couldn't let him get his wish, and hurriedly told him about it.

"You kid, you don't have enough to eat! How much is not enough for you to eat! When I was at home, I didn't eat meat every day, but when I came here, I ate and drank well, and you even lost your face with your aunt! Lin Hai raised his eyebrows, and slapped his thick palm on Lin Chun's back, "I told you to eat!" I'm lazy and slippery all day long, and I think about eating ......"

"Chun'er, you didn't do the right thing today! Uncle, I have to say two words to you! Lin Shan also solemnly looked at him, "We are working in Zhuangzi and eating a big pot of rice, your aunt is the main family, if you deliberately leave the meat of the public school for you to eat, what will other workers think?" There are a lot of people, can you guarantee that no one is talking behind their backs? Besides, your aunt's father-in-law, brother-in-law, and sister-in-law are all here, how can you let your aunt behave in your mother-in-law's house? ”

"Brother Chun, what my father and second uncle are talking about! Besides, we don't eat badly, the thick porridge in the morning, the steamed buns, and the meat in the lunch dish, even if you have to sleep at night, you will be full. You can't eat like this every day when you're at home! "Lin Zhu looks a little similar to his aunt Lin's family, both have a purple face, a thick and short body, and a simple face on his face.

Seeing that Lin Chun was pursed more and more and didn't speak, Lin hurriedly said: "Chun'er is growing her body, and it's normal to want to eat meat!" Zhuangzi will be completed in two days, and when the time comes, I will cook a few meat dishes at home, let's all go and let Chun'er have a good time! ”

"Hongmei, don't get used to him! I don't know who I am! Lin Hai, the second brother of the Lin family, said that when he saw that Lin Chun's bowl was full, he also filled a bowl, took two steamed buns, and pushed Lin Chun to eat together.

Before leaving, Lin Chun turned around and glared at her fiercely.

Xie Xuan saw that Lin's expression was a little gloomy, so she came to the side and persuaded her: "Da Yan, don't feel uncomfortable, you did the right thing!" Brother Tsubaki really wants to eat meat, let's wait for the completion of these two days, just make it for him! Make sure to let him eat and go out against the wall! ”

"Alas, in fact, Chun'er has also told me several times openly and secretly, but I haven't answered him, for fear that he will have an opinion about me as an aunt!" Lin said.

"He is not sensible, if he has an opinion, he has an opinion, and no one can say that Da Yan is doing something wrong!" Xie Xuan persuaded her again.

Lin just sighed, and there was still a little sadness on his face.

Things between relatives are not simple things that can be distinguished from right and wrong, and if they can be distinguished, there are not so many inexplicable disagreements in the world.

While she was talking, Xie Xuan saw the three brothers of the Li family walking over with bowls, her eldest uncle Li Changhe walked in front, and the second uncle Li Changwei followed lazily, yawning from time to time, and her father Li Changping walked at the end, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.

"Xuanxuan, why are you here? What about you? Her father looked up suddenly, saw Xie Xuan standing on the edge of the pot, and couldn't help but ask.

Xie Xuan looked at him carefully, this was the first time he took the initiative to talk to Xie Xuan, if it was Xie Xuan before, I am afraid he would jump up happily!

"My mother, they eat and drink well at home, and my grandparents are reluctant to let them work more, and they are very happy every day!" Xie Xuan looked at her father and said with a smile.
