Chapter 007: The Xiao family is a flood beast
"Jingzi, having said that, I think it's better to forget about the dowry."
Zhuo Yu didn't want to continue to entangle with the Xiao family, his brain hurt!
"Mom, you can't cheapen them for nothing. Tomorrow I will personally go to Wujia Village, and you will leave this matter to me. ”
Xia Jing went out soon after explaining, Zhuo Yu said "hey", and he could only give up when he couldn't persuade him, and wait for his son to go to Xiao's house tomorrow to see the situation.
As long as the son is willing to withdraw from this marriage, it is easy to say anything.
Xia Jing went outside, and Xia Lan immediately greeted him when he saw him.
"Brother, it's hard to get married, let's celebrate tomorrow." Buy two catties of meat, and it is better to put two more ribs.
dared to withdraw from the marriage by himself, and the whole family was very happy.
Xia Jing breathed a sigh of relief, saw Xia Ming also come over with a smile, nodded the two of them, and said, "This matter is more complicated than you think, don't worry about it, I'll deal with it." ”
"What do you mean?"
Xia Lan saw that her brother had already returned to the room, and turned her head to look at Xia Ming next to her.
"You don't know, how can I know." Xia Ming frowned, "But I feel that my brother is quite profound." ”
Xia Lan, "......"
The next day, Xia Jing got up very early and went out for a run.
Zhuo Yu was picking beans in the field behind the house to prepare the morning vegetables, and when she saw her son running by the road outside, she grunted in her heart, and she ran on vacation.
The Xia family eats with five mouths, three of them have jobs, and they are also rich in the town, and their lives are quite good.
There are meat buns on the breakfast table, one cold dish and one hot dish, and even the boiled rice porridge does not have mixed grains like other families.
After Xia Jing returned, the family sat down at the table to eat.
Zhuo Yu served a bowl of porridge to his eldest son, and when he saw him holding the bun in a daze, he bumped his arm and asked, "Why don't you eat it?" ”
"Oh, nothing."
Xia Jing came back to his senses, looked at the porridge in front of him, and said casually, "Thank you, Mom." ”
Zhuo Yu blinked, and his son became polite.
After breakfast, Xia Song took his youngest son to school, Xia Lan went to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, and when Xia Jing packed up and went out, Zhuo Yu became alone in the house.
"Jingzi, you can pay attention, the mother and son of the Xiao family are not fuel-efficient lamps. If not, we will be swept away by the flood of the dowry. ”
It's really the Xiao family to be a flood beast.
"Mom, I know how to do it, don't worry about it. Be back soon. ”
Xia Jing said that he had gone out, but he was going in the wrong direction, Zhuo Yu said "hey", saw his son turn around, pointed to the other side and said, "Didn't you go to Wujia Village, the direction is reversed." ”
"Mom, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperatives first."
Xia Jing's figure quickly walked away, and Zhuo Yu frowned his face, "What is my son doing in the supply and marketing cooperative, it won't be to buy a gift, obviously he is going to withdraw from the marriage." ”
Zhuo Yu shook her head, how could she think of such a ridiculous thing.
Xia Jing went to the supply and marketing cooperative, but did not go in, but stood on the meat stall next to him.
"Boss, is the meat fresh?"
"The boss of the Xia family, you buy meat, of course it's fresh, the pig killed in the early morning didn't take long to put it away."
They all live in the same town, and the butcher who sells pork obviously knows the person in front of him.
Xia Jing thought for a while, and said with a smile, "Master Niu, then bring me two catties of pork ribs." Please pick the middle two, and by the way, help me chop them, it's about this long. He gestured with his fingers, "I don't need to give me the first and last few pieces, I just want the middle ones." ”
The person in front of him was serious, but the cow butcher was full of question marks.
"Boss of the Xia family, what are you doing with these ribs?"
Xia Jing, "Ahem, stewed soup." ”
"Stewed ???" It was the first time he had seen someone buy ribs without head to tail, and he had a plan for the length of the ribs.
However, thinking that it would be two or two ribs for white, Master Niu didn't say anything, and weighed it according to Xia Jing's request to remove the head and tail.
"Please help me pack a few more layers."
"Okay."
The cow butcher added two layers of yellow wrapping paper, and directly beat the ribs of less than two catties into a gift bag.
"Thank you!"
Xia Jing was satisfied, took the things and paid for them, and left in the surprise of the cow butcher.
Not long after he left, Xia Lan hurriedly ran out of it, "Master Niu, my brother bought meat here just now?" ”
She vaguely saw her brother's figure, but unfortunately there happened to be a guest and couldn't come out.
"Yes, you have a good mouth at noon today, you asked for two catties of pork ribs, and said it was stewed soup."
The cow butcher didn't dare to say that he still had a head and tail, recalled the conversation with Xia Jing just now, and said again, "Your brother has been a soldier for so many years, he is really different, he speaks very politely, and he feels very temperamental, which is different from us rough people." ”
Xia Lan, "......" you are a rough person.
But these are not important, Xia Lan happily returned to her counter, thinking that her brother was really going to celebrate, and she knew that she wanted to eat pork ribs.
It is more than half an hour away from the town to Wujia Village.
At this time, Xiao Yao had already woken up, but she was nested in the room and didn't go out.
The unedged mirror under the window was taken to the room by her, and with the greatest courage in her life, she looked at her face carefully, and finally took out a handkerchief to cover most of her face, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"It feels much better to leave only the eyes and forehead, at least these two parts are not too ugly."
Xiao Yao said to herself, opened the only wooden box in the room, and began to rummage through clothes.
In fact, the original owner's clothes are not bad, at least most of them are not patched, which is already rare in the countryside in this era, but in Xiao Yao's eyes, those colors and styles are more earthy than slag.
Xiao Yao chose a relatively good set of clothes and pants to come out, and after changing them, she took a mirror and looked up and down, and she lost a layer of goosebumps.
It's so ugly, in her last life, even if she acted in a country drama, she didn't wear such real turtle clothes.
"Forget it, if you come here, you will be safe."
Xiao Yao comforted herself, pulled herself a high pill head, and finally went out.
Xiao Datie and Xiao Yonggang had already gone to work in the field, and Jiang Xiaofen was cooking in the kitchen.
"Mom, I'll help you."
Xiao Yao was very active and wanted to help when she went to the kitchen.
Last night, she asked the system, in a day, she had to work at least half a day to get 1 point for her work, whether it was housework or farming outside.
How can my daughter help.
Jiang Xiaofen's movements in his hand didn't stop, "No." You just go and sit outside, and if you can't stay idle, go to the yard and look at the chickens. ”
Xiao Yao, "......" When she is a three-year-old child, what is there to look at chickens.
"Mom, I'll help you stir-fry."
She is not the original owner, and she can still cook.
Xiao Yao went to get the spatula on the stove, Jiang Xiaofen thought that her daughter was so filial, her heart was moved, and she turned around and wanted to persuade her to rest, but she was directly startled.
"Yaoyao, what's wrong with your face?"
Covering her face for no reason, Jiang Xiaofen's first feeling was that there was something wrong with her daughter's face.
