Chapter 152: Knocking on my cousin
Zhou Huaijin couldn't help frowning, thinking about what Li Yun said before, this cousin seemed to be really getting more and more presumptuous.
Zhou Huaijin, who listened to it, spoke coldly and said outside, "Let her in." β
Soon Zhou Yanran came in, and when she saw Zhou Huaijin, she said with a look of grievance, "Brother, your maid is becoming more and more arrogant, blocking the door and not letting me in, and not taking me in his eyes at all." β
Zhou Huaijin didn't have the usual gentle expression at this time, and looked at Zhou Yanran with cold eyes, "I seem to have told you that when I have guests, don't go into my yard at will." β
Zhou Yanran rarely saw Zhou Huaijin look so cold, and lowered her head a little scared and said, "Isn't that because, because my brother's guest is a cousin?" β
Li Yue didn't want to stay here at all at this time, so she stood up and said to Li Yun, "But is there anything else?" It's okay, let's go. β
Listening to Li Yue's words, Li Yun also stood up, clasped his fists at Zhou Huaijin and said, "Farewell." β
Zhou Yanran saw that her cousin was about to leave as soon as she came, of course she was unwilling, and immediately looked at Li Yun with an aggrieved expression, and shouted Jiaodidi, "Cousin......"
As if he hadn't heard, Li Yun pulled up Li Yue on the side, turned around and walked out, Zhou Huaijin didn't stay, and said, "Brother Li go slowly." β
When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the maid who Li Yue thought was very strange didn't speak, just led the way in front and led the two outside.
Here, Zhou Yanran saw that her cousin was pulling the woman away like this, and she didn't care about herself, she stomped her feet angrily, and forgot the cold eyes of her cousin just now, so she turned her head and complained, "Brother, why don't you keep your cousin?" Why did my cousin come to you, not to me? β
Zhou Huaijin looked at Zhou Yanran and said with a smile, "How?" Do I need to report to my cousin Yanran what I am doing now? β
Zhou Yanran also realized that she had said the wrong thing at this time, a family like the Zhou family, there are some things that she can't inquire about at will, such as the cousin in front of her, she can be spoiled for other things, but don't ask about her cousin's affairs at will, this is the cousin's bottom line.
Zhou Yanran was not stupid at this time, she hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake, "Brother Huaijin, I was wrong." β
Zhou Huaijin made up her mind to beat this cousin this time, and did not forgive her because she obediently admitted her mistakes as before, but continued to speak with a gloomy face, "Do you know why I transferred your maid?" β
Zhou Yanran didn't dare to raise her head, only lowered her head and shook her head.
Zhou Huaijin continued, "Because she knows too many things, she may not come back in the future, and she should have been disposed of at this time." β
Zhou Yanran raised her head and her eyes widened, "Why?" "The people who come out of the family compound, of course, know what it means to dispose of them.
Seeing that Zhou Yanran still had such an expression, Zhou Huaijin couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment, "Do you think you don't know what you're doing?" You seem to have forgotten my father's warning, think about how to explain to my father when you go back, if you don't explain well, you may be like your maid. β
Zhou Yanran looked at Zhou Huaijin with a frightened expression, a little unable to believe her ears.
But Zhou Huaijin continued, "I will send someone to send you back in the next two days, don't think about what tricks you have, just your little means, it's not enough to see." β
At this moment, Zhou Yanran, in addition to being frightened, also felt that the cousin in front of her was so strange and terrifying.
Looking at his cousin in front of him with a dull face, Zhou Huaijin felt that he seemed to be too good at talking in the past few years, and these people seemed to be about to forget who he was.
"Go back to your own courtyard and stay there, I'll let you know when it's arranged."
Zhou Yanran listened to Zhou Huaijin's words, and obediently turned around and walked out of the courtyard, but the expression on her face was still sluggish and incredulous.
Li Yue was still pulled by Li Yun, and walked out behind the cold beauty, and Li Yue's thoughts were all on the cold beauty.
"The girl is so pretty."
"How old is the girl?"
"The girl was born with such a temperament, why did she become a maid?"
"What's the girl's last name?"
The corners of Li Yun's eyes twitched slightly, and he didn't understand why Yue'er was suddenly so interested in this Zhou Huaijin's maid.
Is it because of the beauty of this maid's birth? But Zhou Yanran is also good-looking, and she has never seen Yue'er so enthusiastic.
Maybe it's because this maid is too strange, Li Yun thought.
This maid is indeed very strange, along the way, Li Yue kept asking all kinds of questions, but this maid didn't answer a word, and sent the two of them to the door of Su's house, turned around and went in.
When he went out, Li Yun asked, "So curious?" β
Li Yue nodded, "Don't you think she's very interesting?" β
Li Yunying said, "Your question is still interesting." β
Li Yue recalled her question, and seemed to have a fight with Tang Seng, and couldn't help but smile, "I just want to see if she can be annoyed by me to have other expressions." β
The two went to the market to buy some food, then went out of the city together, found an ox cart and went to Liangshan Town.
Before noon, the two returned to Daliang Mountain, Xu Jinniang was pulling the grass in the yard, and Xiaoyang was taking the grass pulled by his mother and feeding his rabbits.
Hearing the movement outside the courtyard, Xiaoyang rushed over and shouted at Li Yun and Li Yue, "Sister, brother-in-law." β
Li Yue picked up Xiao Yang who rushed over, kissed Xiao Yang on the face, and asked, "Xiao Yang is good at home?" β
Xiaoyang nestled in Li Yue's arms, shaking his head excitedly.
Xu Jinniang also put down the work in her hand, greeted her, looked at Li Yue, and said distressedly, "How did you lose weight?" β
Li Yue looked down, "Is there one?" She didn't think so.
Li Yun, who was on the side, said, "I'm a little thin, I've been too busy during this time." β
Listening to Li Yun's words, Xu Jinniang said worriedly, "Since you're busy, why did you suddenly come back?" Don't worry about the family, we're all fine at home, just keep busy with your business. β
Li Yue said with a smile, "Didn't my mother say that I lost weight, no matter how busy I was, I had to rest, so I came back to take a look." Why didn't you see Lin Xiao? β
Xu Jinniang replied while washing her hands with the water in the wooden basin on the side, "I went out to collect medicine, it's almost noon, and I guess I'll be back after a while." β
Li Yue asked, "What are you doing collecting medicine?" My mother is still in good health? After speaking, he looked Xu Jinniang up and down worriedly.
Xu Jinniang finished washing her hands and beckoned the two of them into the house, and said, "My body is very good now, Lin Xiao seems to be researching some medicine, and he often stays in the room over there for a long time." β
Li Yue sighed, estimating that Lin Xiao was studying medical skills, and the mother who listened to it was in good health, and she was also relieved.
When the two entered the house, Li Yue let Xiao Yang in his arms sit down on the bench on the side, took the package in Li Yun's hand, opened it and took out a package of hemp candy boiled with corn wrapped in kraft paper, and handed it to Xiao Yang.
Where has Xiaoyang ever eaten such candy since he was a child, he didn't recognize it, he held it in his hand and asked curiously, "Sister, what is this?" β
Li Yue looked a little sad, and said, "It's delicious, Xiaoyang tastes it and sees if it's delicious." β
Xiaoyang carefully broke a small piece, put it in his mouth, and said happily, "It's sugar, it's so sweet." β
Li Yue touched her brother's head distressedly, and said, "Eat slowly." Only then did he raise his head and begin to take out all the roast duck and other food he bought.
Xu Jinniang looked at the food that Mingyue took out of the package, and said with a slight reproach, "How can you spend money indiscriminately, it's not that there is no food at home." β
Li Yun said at the right time, "Mother, has anyone come up to find trouble during this time?" β
Xu Jinniang responded, "That Ming Xiaobao's family has come up a few times, begging me to let that Ming Dabao go, but they were all unceremoniously thrown out of the yard by Lin Xiao, and they have been here a few times, which annoyed Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao threw a few people out of the way, which scared me, but fortunately, people got up and were not injured, and then Lin Xiao let go of the cruel words, if he came again next time, he would throw them (them) directly from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, and then he would not dare to come up." β
As for Xiao Gong's heard, she was almost humiliated by her mother-in-law, Xu Jinniang chose to hide this, she was worried that if her daughter knew, she was afraid that she would not give up so easily, although she also felt that she didn't have to be polite to the old lady, but in this way, her daughter's reputation might be damaged, so it was better not to tell her daughter.
Listening to what Xu Jinniang said, Li Yue couldn't help but praise, "Lin Xiao did a good job, I can't bear to let him go." β
Li Yun responded, "I also plan to let him stay here, don't you let Ah Jiu send his daughter-in-law over to him?" β
Listening to Li Yun's words, Xu Jinniang said, "Lin Xiao originally had a daughter-in-law, and I was worried that he should marry a daughter-in-law at such an age." β
Li Yue said with a smile, "That's his future daughter-in-law, and she hasn't married yet." β
Xu Jinniang said puzzledly, "FiancΓ©e? β
Li Yue nodded, "Sort of." β
Xu Jinniang looked at the sky outside and said, "It's almost noon, you're all hungry, I'll cook." β
Li Yue got up and stopped, "Mother, I'll come." β
I don't want Xu Jinniang to glare at her daughter, "I'm busy and thin, it's hard to take a day off, why are you coming, sit obediently, and wait for dinner." β
Seeing that her mother was glaring at herself, Li Yue had no choice but to sit down obediently.
Li Yue arrived home not long ago, this Liu took Minghui Mingkang's two children up the mountain, seeing the three people who came in, Li Yue was also taken aback, except for the younger Mingkang, Liu and Minghui have lost a lot of weight, especially Minghui, who is gray and listless, not at all like before.
Li Yue asked with some distress, "Why are you so thin?" Let's sit in the first room. β
Xu Jinniang, who was busy behind the stove, saw Minghui Mingkang coming in, and also asked, "Why don't you two go up the mountain to play, Xiaoyang talks about you every day?" β
After entering the house and sitting down, Liu Shi spoke, "I heard that I saw you two coming back, so I came up and took a look." Then he said to Mingkang on the side, "You take your brother out to see the rabbits." β
Mingkang had long wanted to go out to see the rabbits, and after listening to his mother's words, he pulled Xiao Yang who was holding the cow paper bag and went outside, Li Yue did not forget to shout at Xiao Yang, "Remember to give my brother a little sugar." β
After the two younger children went out, Li Yue turned her head to look at the two, "What's the matter?" How did Minghui get like this? β
Hearing his sister ask about him, Minghui's eyes turned red and he said, "My mother is back, my father is sick, I don't have money to hire a doctor, my eldest brother was kicked out of the house by my grandmother, and I went to find my fourth uncle." After saying that, he began to sob.
Li Yue patted Minghui's back comfortingly and looked at Liu, "Third aunt, what's going on?" β
