Chapter 128: The Unending Xu Family
As soon as Mrs. Xu spoke, her tone was still so harsh, and her voice was still so harsh, Cheng Xi couldn't help frowning, and Aunt Liu, who had just entered the house, heard the movement and went out.
Xiong Da Xiong Er, who was originally busy on the side, knew the virtues of the Xu family, and when he saw these two people coming in, he put down his work and stood behind Cheng Xi.
Old Mrs. Xu snorted coldly, and looked at Cheng Xi with a cold look in her eyes, "Xu Sanlang is not at home, you are very happy, let some indiscriminate men fool around at home." ”
Cheng Xi and the others who said this frowned, these words are really vicious, this is related to the reputation of women, and Mrs. Xu doesn't care who the two are, so they are indiscriminately blind.
Aunt Liu was already a fiery temper, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but stand up and scolded in a loud voice, "Can you speak human words?" As soon as you open your mouth, it stinks, is it a big feces in the morning? ”
As soon as Cheng Xi heard Aunt Liu speak, she had a headache, this old lady Xu is not a stopper, as soon as Aunt Liu's words came out, she was bound to make a fuss.
As Cheng Xi expected, where would Mrs. Xu let others scold her and not bear it in vain, relying on her son behind her, Cheng Xi is also her granddaughter-in-law, she doesn't dare to treat her in front of outsiders, this hand crossed her waist and took a few steps forward, pointed at Aunt Liu and started scolding, "You slut with a mouth full of feces, what do you intervene when I teach my granddaughter-in-law, is it the same color as my granddaughter-in-law, and likes to hide a few men at home?" ”
Cheng Xi's face darkened when he heard this, at the gate of this courtyard, there were already a few neighbors who heard the movement and watched the excitement, this Aunt Liu had developed a good voice when she was doing business in the market, and her voice was not small, and Mrs. Xu's voice was even more sharp and thin and could be heard far away.
Seeing that the people outside the courtyard were already pointing, Cheng Xi said to Xu Wenqiang on the side with a calm face, "Uncle, you brought the old lady over to make trouble today?" ”
Xu Wenqiang, who originally had nothing to do with himself, heard Cheng Xi's words, and suddenly remembered the instructions of the fourth brother, hurriedly stepped forward and pulled out his mother, and whispered, "Mother, what are you doing, have you forgotten what the fourth brother said?" ”
Aunt Liu heard that the old lady actually scolded her like this, where would she give up, Cheng Xi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Aunt Liu, and whispered, "Aunt Liu, this is Xu Sanlang's grandmother, you go into the house first, don't be like her." ”
Aunt Liu looked at the door where several people had gathered, in the end, to give Cheng Xi face, thinking that if it really made trouble, it would only ruin Cheng Xi's reputation, so she glared at Mrs. Xu unwillingly, and then went to the gate of the courtyard and yelled at the people at the door, "What do you see, what's there to see?" ”
After speaking, he didn't care what the faces of those people were, and closed the courtyard door with a snap, and then went to his house.
Mrs. Xu, who originally planned to continue to make trouble, listened to her eldest son's reminder, but finally closed her mouth unwillingly, and said to Cheng Xi in a high-spirited tone, "What are you doing stupidly, don't you know how to greet people into the house?" ”
Cheng Xi saw the small movements of Mrs. Xu and Xu Wenqiang in his eyes, and glanced at the old lady coldly, "What do you have to say quickly, I still have something to go out?" ”
Old Madam Xu's anger was raised again, "What kind of attitude do you have?" ”
Cheng Xi shrugged, "What's wrong with my attitude?" It's much better than you, and as soon as you walk in the door, you want to ruin my reputation. ”
Mrs. Xu angrily stretched out her fingers and pointed at Cheng Xi tremblingly, "You, you, you little......"
Xu Wenqiang hurriedly pulled his mother, and said to Cheng Xi with a smile, "We heard that San Lang went out, and only you were left at home, so I was worried, so I came to see you." ”
Cheng Xi's eyes flashed slightly, the Xu family actually knew that Xu Sanlang had gone out? It seems that Xu Sanlang, the fourth uncle, didn't stop after all, he didn't come, but he sent the old lady over, but I don't know what the purpose of coming this time is?
Xu Wenqiang saw that Cheng Xi was silent and didn't speak, so he smiled and said, "You see it's not a matter of standing and talking in the courtyard, let's go into the house and talk?" ”
Cheng Xi looked at Mrs. Xu who was holding back her anger, and then at Mrs. Xu with a smirk on her face, and finally turned around and went into the house, but she didn't plan to greet the two.
Xu Wenqiang hurriedly pulled the old lady who was still holding back her temper and followed her into the house.
Xiong Da Xiong Er followed in, and then stood behind Cheng Xi like a piece of wood, the hundred-year-old was so frightened that he hid in the corner when Mrs. Xu entered the door and made a fuss, and then was seen by Aunt Liu and taken to her house, followed by Xiong Da Xiong Er, Aunt Liu was not worried that Cheng Xi would suffer, and this was Cheng Xi's family matter, since Cheng Xi didn't let her interfere, she couldn't be strong.
Xu Wenqiang and Mrs. Xu sat at the same table as Cheng Xi, Xu Wenqiang saw that his wife couldn't count on it, so he had to smile and say to Cheng Xi, "I heard that Lan Yatou has gone with Yu Gongzi, and I don't know what is going on now?" ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Anyway, I sent it to you, as for what, I don't know, you can go to Yu Gongzi and ask yourself." ”
Xu Wenqiang replied with a smile, "It's not like I can't see Yu Gongzi, so you can help inquire." ”
Cheng Xi responded, "That's it?" Okay, I'll take you to see Yu Gongzi now, as for whether Yu Gongzi can't see you, I can't guarantee it. ”
Xu Wenqiang hurriedly shook his head, "No need, you can help ask and tell us." Actually, we came here to ask about San Lang, I heard that San Lang found a good errand, this family has a hard time, since you came to the county, you haven't brought money to the family, you see, you see ......"
Xu Wenqiang rubbed his hands and looked at Cheng Xi, obviously asking for money.
Cheng Xi sneered in his heart, and said with a smile, "Oh, Xu Sanlang's little silver is only enough for me to pay the rent of this courtyard, and I lost my errand in the restaurant, and I really don't have the money to bring it home, if you go and ask the fourth uncle, what are you doing in the yamen, there must be a lot of oil and water." ”
Cheng Xi said the next half of the sentence in a low voice, but it was deliberately said to Xu Wenqiang, Xu Wenqiang's eyes flashed, and he responded, "Your fourth uncle is just a little master in the yamen, where is there any oil and water?" ”
Cheng Xi lowered his voice and whispered in surprise, "Uncle, you don't know what the master is doing, right?" That's the fattest errand for oil and water, it's just the same, you need to get a land deed in this county, what can't you do through the hands of the fourth uncle? Think about it, the fourth uncle helps people do these things, and there is less oil and water in it? ”
Old Mrs. Xu, who was still angry, heard Cheng Xi's words, forgot her anger, leaned over and asked, "Is it really so profitable?" ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Can I still lie to you about this?" ”
The old lady's face changed badly again, but instead of anger, but with a look of resentment, she muttered, "It's really unconscionable, I take care of him in everything, and now that he is out of the county, I don't want him to take me to the county." ”
Xu Wenqiang's eyes also flashed with unwillingness, but he didn't learn what the old lady said.
Xiong Er is a smart one, he saw his master's impatience in his eyes, and hurriedly said, "Master, Yu Gongzi is still waiting for you to come over." ”
Xu Wenqiang's eyes lit up and looked at Cheng Xi, "Are you going to see Yu Gongzi?" ”
Xu Wenqiang originally wanted to rely on his fourth brother and follow him in the future, but just after listening to what Cheng Xi said, thinking that the fourth brother was still taking money at home, he felt uneasy in his heart, and felt that his fourth brother was a little unreliable.
At this time, when I heard someone mention Yu Gongzi, I thought that I had a daughter who was sent to Yu Zhaocai, maybe she was better than these four brothers, and hope rose in my heart, and I looked at Cheng Xi with a look of hope.
Cheng Xi had already stood up and responded, "Uncle wants to follow?" ”
Xu Wenqiang thought that he had already gone to eat the closed-door soup, and responded with a smile, "I won't go, but Lan girl's side, in the end, it is my own family, you have to take care of it and help ask what the situation is." ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Okay, then I'll go first?" Are you going to find the fourth uncle, or do you want to stay with me first? ”
At this time, Mrs. Xu was thinking about how much money her old man had in her hand, but she was not in the mood to toss Cheng Xi, so she stood up and said with a cold face, "What about the money you promised to pay home every month?" ”
Cheng Xi shrugged, "Wait for Xu Saburo to come back." ”
Mrs. Xu glanced at the two big men behind Xu Sanlang, who were actually Yu Gongzi's people, and finally turned around and went to the door with a snort, Xu Wenqiang stood up with him, and did not forget to remind Cheng Xi before leaving, "Don't forget about Lan Yatou." ”
When the two of them went out, Cheng Xi exhaled a sullen breath and said sullenly, "You pat your ass and leave, I still have to clean up a mess for you." ”
Thinking about what Xu Sanlang said, for the Xu family, you don't have to be polite, it seems that you should find a way to clean up the people of the Xu family, lest they come to her from time to time to make trouble and make him upset.
Mrs. Xu and Xu Wenqiang left, Xiong Daxiong Er went to work on their own affairs again, Cheng Xi went out and passed by the yard, preparing to go to Aunt Liu's house opposite to see the hundred-year-old, by the way, to appease Aunt Liu, who was scolded for herself, and saw the familiar wooden basin in the yard, and she was uplifted.
Xiong Er saw Cheng Xi standing in the courtyard for a long time without moving, stepped forward in confusion, and asked, "Master, what are you standing here for?" ”
After that, Xiong Er saw Cheng Xi's misty eyes glaring at him, and then said angrily, "I have been sneezing for a long time, and I finally came out, and I was scared back by you." ”
After saying that, he rubbed his nose vigorously, then turned around and went to the house.
Halfway through, he turned his head, pointed to the wooden basin that was thrown in the yard because of the water leakage, and said, "This basin can still be used if you repair it, why did you lose it?" If you don't know the hardships of life, you should save some things, and you will repair this pot later. ”
Xiong Er looked at the basin, it was really a little inexplicable, it was obvious that the master himself said that he wanted to throw it away?
Entering the house, Cheng Xi took a deep breath, and then remembered that he was not going to the opposite yard to see Aunt Liu and the hundred years old? How did you come back again? So he turned and went out again, and went to the opposite room.
