Cheng Xi replied helplessly, "Dad, you see that I'm not very good, but I look better than before." ”

What Cheng Xi said was true, because he was in a restaurant, the food was much better than in this poor countryside, and there was enough oil and water.

Cheng Dagui looked Cheng Xi up and down, and then nodded with satisfaction, "That's good, that's good, it's good if you all are good." Listen to your brother, you are familiar with their wife of Boss Zhao, but do you have any news about your brother? I have been gone for more than two months, and there is no news, and I don't know if I went to Fucheng or not, so I am worried...... Ay! ”

Cheng Xi also suspected it after hearing about it at first, but later it was because he had seen Boss Zhao that he gradually dispelled the idea of suspicion, and it was understandable that Cheng Dagui would be suspicious, Cheng Xi thought, if he told him that there was no news, I was afraid that this father would be more worried, so he simply said, "Brother didn't send the news back, but I went to ask Mrs. Zhao to inquire, she said that Boss Zhao and they had already arrived in Fucheng and settled down, brother, they should be fine, and they will send us the news back in a short time." ”

Cheng Dagui heard Cheng Xi's words, and he really breathed a sigh of relief, and the worry on his face dissipated a lot, "It's good to have news, why are you back?" ”

Cheng Xi responded, "I haven't been back for a long time, so come back and take a look, Dad, your body and legs are better?" Are you still taking your medicine? ”

Cheng Dagui sighed and responded, "I'm afraid this leg is like this in my life, and now it's a drag." ”

Cheng Xi hurriedly comforted, "Dad, what are you talking about, you are the backbone of the family, brother and they are not at home, Aunt Wu and the younger brother are still counting on you." ”

Listening to what Cheng Xi said, thinking that his mother and sister-in-law had come from time to time to find fault since the two eldest sons left, Cheng Dagui had to put away his depressed psychology and cheer up, if he didn't stand in front of him, his mother was afraid that she would be able to drive their mother and son out.

Cheng Xi looked at the uncertain expression on Cheng Dagui's face, and knew that the family must not be peaceful, thinking of the difficulties of those people in the Xu family, Cheng Xi asked worriedly, "Is it that the people of the Xu family came to make trouble?" ”

Unconsciously, Cheng Xi had already pulled Xu Sanlang out of the Xu family, and anyway, the Xu family didn't regard Xu Sanlang as their own family.

Cheng Dagui shook his head, and he didn't intend to hide it from Cheng Xi, so he sighed and said, "The Xu family didn't come to make trouble, it was your eldest aunt, who often pleaded you to come over to make trouble, hey!" Cheng Dagui looked bored.

Cheng Xi looked at Cheng Dagui's sad appearance, reached out and grabbed his hand and comforted, "When we earn money with my brother, we will take you to the county seat, and then no one will come to make trouble." ”

Cheng Dagui patted Cheng Xi's hand, "It's rare that you have this heart, and your father will be content in your heart, and if you live a good life by yourself, your father will be happy." ”

At this time, Wu came from outside with two bowls of noodles and put them in front of the two, "Hurry up and eat, it's not early, eat early and rest, I'll go make your bed." ”

Cheng Dagui said, "Ah Chen's house ......"

Before Dagui finished speaking, he obediently closed his mouth under Wu's sudden glaring eyes.

After eating noodles, the two of them went back to Cheng Xi's house to rest after a little washing, anyway, they all shared the same bed in the county, and they were almost used to it.

Because the restaurant is not open in the morning, it will only open at noon, you don't have to get up too early, it's nothing to get up early, the two of them are used to sleeping a little more in the morning, but when the two of them get up early the next morning, the sky is already bright, because it is the busy farming season, the Wu family got up early and made breakfast, Cheng Qiang was playing in the yard, and when he saw Cheng Xi, he pounced excitedly, "Sister, sister." ”

Cheng Xi hugged Cheng Qiang's body in time, and Cheng Qiang shouted towards the kitchen, "Mother, sister is up, you can have breakfast." ”

Hearing Cheng Qiang's words, I was afraid that because they got up late and delayed breakfast, Cheng Xi coughed slightly embarrassed, rubbed Cheng Qiang's head, and said, "Go play by yourself, sister has to go to wash up before breakfast." ”

After breakfast, Cheng Xi took out the gifts he brought to a few people from the county town, the snacks specially brought to Cheng Qiang, and a few pieces of cloth, although it was not a valuable gift, Wu and Cheng Dagui both showed a satisfied smile on their faces, and they still said, "You can't be so bankrupt in the future, save more money, and you will live a better life in the future." ”

Wu said worriedly, "Are you ready for six hundred wen per month?" ”

Xu Saburo nodded, "Ready." ”

Wu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I heard that this old lady Xu was clamoring to go to the county seat to find you a few days ago, I'm afraid that's it, you should send it over earlier, you have to remember this matter in the future, if you let the old lady Xu go to the county town to trouble you, it will be troublesome." ”

Thinking that this 1,200 yuan is gone, it is his two months' hard-earned wages, thinking about Cheng Xi, he feels that his flesh hurts very much, but what can be done about the pain, It really made Mrs. Xu make trouble in the county, I am afraid that I will not have a peaceful life.

Cheng Xi was a person who didn't want to see the Xu family at all, and when Xu Sanlang said to return to the Xu family, Cheng Xi directly refused, "You go, I won't go." ”

Xu Sanlang stood still and didn't move, Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang with his head down, "What's wrong, go quickly?" Come back early. ”

Xu Sanlang raised his head and looked at Cheng Xi, "It's not good to stay in your mother's house all the time, let's go back to our own house." ”

Cheng Xi thought about the thatched hut that had nothing, and if he wanted to live in it, he had to move things anew, and he didn't have anything to eat, and it was basically impossible to count on the Xu family, so he shook his head and refused, "Come on, how can you live in that broken house?" I won't go, you send the money over quickly, and you have to help with the work when you come back. ”

At this time, it was the time when the farm was busy, Cheng Dagui had a leg injury and couldn't work, Wu not only had to take care of Cheng Dagui and Cheng Qiang, but all the work outside the home fell on her head, the grain sticks in the field should have been collected a long time ago, but there was still more than half of the confiscation, Cheng Xi thought that he could stay at home for two days, and he and Xu Sanlang would help.

Xu Sanlang's face was a little dark, and he hummed coldly, then turned around and left, Cheng Xi looked at the back of Xu Sanlang, who was obviously darkened and unhappy, and muttered to himself in confusion, "What's wrong with this?" ”

Wu came out of the stove room, just in time to see Cheng Xi looking at the door and muttering to himself, asking, "What's wrong?" Xu Saburo went back? ”

Cheng Xi nodded and responded, "I was just fine, but somehow I suddenly blackened my face, this temper is really capricious." ”

Wu asked, "What did you just say?" ”

Cheng Xi recalled, "Wouldn't it be that I didn't go with him to live in a thatched house, he was angry, but that thatched house has nothing, how can he live in it, can he still count on the Xu family?" ”

Wu sighed and responded, "Girl Xi, Xu Sanlang is now your father-in-law, you are a family, no matter how the thatched hut is, it is his home, you dislike it so much, how can he feel good in his heart?" ”

As soon as Wu said this, Cheng Xi reacted, he was poking Xu Sanlang's pain, no wonder Xu Sanlang blackened his face with him, but he heard Wu continue, "That's not only his family, since you married him, it can be regarded as your family, and what you do will make him feel that you don't treat him as a family at all." ”

Cheng Xi thought about Xu Sanlang's everything, and a trace of distress flashed in his heart, and he responded, "I'll coax him when he comes back in a while." ”

Wu heard Cheng Xi's words, and said with great relief, "That thatched house really can't be lived, and you can't count on the Xu family, so it's better to live at home, but you have to talk to Xu Sanlang well." ”

Cheng Xi nodded in response, "I see." ”

When Xu Sanlang came back, Cheng Xi stood up more diligently than before to greet him, "Are you back?" ”

It's just that when Cheng Xi saw a few bloody scratches on Xu Sanlang's neck, the smile on Cheng Xi's face gradually solidified, and he frowned and asked, "What's going on on your neck?" ”

Xu Sanlang said angrily with a dark face, "It's okay, don't you still want to go to the ground?" Let's go. ”

Cheng Xi was a little angry, "It can't be the Xu family who did it, right?" Let's send them the hard-earned money, and they still do this to you? Really TM a bunch of brutes. ”

Xu Sanlang heard Cheng Xi yelling, the expression on his face was indescribably wonderful, and he reprimanded, "Don't talk like this in the future." ”

Cheng Xi also found that he was a little out of shape, took a deep breath, tried to control his emotions that he wanted to spill, and asked, "What did the old lady do?" ”

Xu Saburo looked at Cheng Xi's posture that he didn't seem to give up without asking why, so he nodded and responded, "I said a few words to my grandmother." ”

With this sentence, Cheng Xi probably understood, I was afraid that the scathing old lady Xu would not be forgiving after taking the money, which provoked Xu Sanlang to scratch Xu Sanlang after talking back.

Although Cheng Xi was angry in his heart, it was impossible for him to run to Mrs. Xu to scratch it back, so he had to sigh helplessly and said, "I'll go and see if there is any wine in the house, and wash and disinfect it with wine." ”
