Chapter Seventy-Seven: Deliberately Tricking Him
Cheng Xi and the three of them walked out, and said, "Let's go back to the county seat after the next year." ”
Xu Wenyu was worried that Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi would not be able to find anyone as soon as they arrived in the county seat, so he hurriedly stood up and continued to ask, "Where are you doing things in the county seat?" I'll go see you when I get to the county seat. ”
At this time, Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi had already walked to the door of the hall, Cheng Xi heard Xu Wenyu's eager inquiry, thinking that it would not be a matter if he kept avoiding like this, Xu Wenyu would always inquire about their whereabouts, and besides, they were going to come out to set up their own stalls, and they couldn't hide and hide, so he turned his head and said with a light smile, "It's in Ruyi Restaurant, the fourth uncle can go there to find us." ”
On the way back to the wing, Cheng Xi didn't speak, kept her head down and pondered, if she and Xu Sanlang planned to set up a stall in the county town, this Xu Wenyu must not be offended at present, and she must also think of a way to contain the Xu family, not to let the Xu family make trouble in the past, if there is a way to contain Xu Wenyu, Xu Wenyu's identity may bring convenience to them to set up a stall in the county seat.
It's just that this method of restraining Xu Wenyu can also be used by Yu Zhaocai, but he and Xu Sanlang saved him by mistake, and after that, Yu Zhaocai was used for everything in the past six months, and Cheng Xi was also a little embarrassed.
As for Zhao Ke's side, if he really has anything to do with the Zhao family in Yuecheng, Cheng Xi doesn't want Xu Wenyu to have a relationship with him and use him, after all, his two brothers are still following him to do things in Fucheng, and this Zhao Ke's daughter-in-law Wang Ying treats her like a sister, Xu Wenyu is deep in thought, and he doesn't know what he is thinking, Cheng Xi doesn't want to hurt them because of his selfishness.
Unable to think of a perfect solution for a while, Cheng Xi shook his head, sighed, and planned to go back to the county seat, but he could only take one step at a time.
Xu Sanlang walked side by side with Cheng Xi holding the child, looking at Cheng Xi frowning for a while and sighing for a while, thinking that Cheng Xi was uncomfortable because of the attitude of the Xu family just now, so he said, "Why don't we go to the county seat for the New Year." ”
Cheng Xi raised his head and glanced at Xu Sanlang, and responded, "It's good to eat and drink here, why do you go back to the county seat?" The day after tomorrow is the New Year, let's celebrate the New Year here. ”
Xu Sanlang stared at Cheng Xi, seeing that Cheng Xi didn't have a sad or angry expression when he talked about celebrating the New Year here, and wondered, "Aren't you angry when they are like this?" ”
Cheng Xi replied with a smile, "What am I angry about?" We have ready-made food to eat, ready-made drink, and new clothes to wear, so why should we be angry? ”
While speaking, Cheng Xi also winked mischievously at Xu Sanlang, "Shouldn't they be the ones who are angry?" Please go home for the New Year, they will lose a lot. ”
Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi really not angry, and was even more puzzled, "Then what were you thinking just now?" ”
Cheng Xi didn't plan to talk to Xu Sanlang about these things at Xu's house, but said with a smile, "I'm thinking about how to bring a child who suddenly appeared, I've never taken a child." ”
Bai Sui, who didn't want to stay obediently in Xu Sanlang's arms all the time, suddenly popped up, looked at Cheng Xi and said cautiously, "I'm very obedient, don't bring it." ”
Cheng Xi looked at the child in Xu Sanlang's arms, his round eyes stared at her pitifully, such a cute expression, for Cheng Xi, who had no resistance at all, the lethality was not too great.
Cheng Xi couldn't help but reach over and take the child in Xu Sanlang's arms into his arms, kissed the child's face, and responded with a smile, "Yes, we are the most well-behaved at the age of 100, and we will obediently listen to my sister in the future." ”
In the face of such a gentle and kind Cheng Xi, the child was a little bolder, and took the initiative to reach out from the clothes wrapped around him, put his arms around Cheng Xi's neck, and asked suspiciously, "Are you your cousin's daughter-in-law?" ”
Cheng Xi listened to the child's words, and nodded slightly out of the corner of her eyes, she didn't expect that this older child would still know her daughter-in-law.
I didn't want the next child's words to make him speechless, so I heard the child continue to ask in confusion, "Then should I be called my cousin, shouldn't I be called my sister?" ”
Cheng Xi hugged the child with one hand, and with one free hand he gathered the adult's clothes on the child's body, so as not to let the child's arm freeze outside, and then reached out and scratched the child's nose, and said with a smile, "People are big ghosts, you know this." ”
"What does it mean to be small?"
So the question and answer of the 100,000 whys began.
Xu Sanlang saw that Cheng Xi was only so tall, and it was really difficult to walk with a child in his arms, so he still took the child over and held it himself, listening to questions and answers as he walked.
I have to say that the 100-year-old child is indeed very well-behaved, and he is very likable, and when he went back to the wing, Cheng Xi and the 100-year-old went to bed together, and the one big and the other laughed and got along well.
Xu Sanlang was worried that the two of them were cold, so he went out to burn the kang, and then sat aside and looked at the miscellaneous books sent by the fourth uncle Xu Wenyu, and looked up at the two laughing on the bed from time to time.
After a while, Xu Wenyu came over with Ma and Cheng Fang, Ma and Cheng Fang were holding breakfast for a few people, and Xu Wenyu was holding a package in his hand, which should be for a hundred years old.
Ma and Cheng Fang put the food on the table, greeted the two and left first, but Xu Wenyu didn't plan to leave, handed the package in his hand to Xu Sanlang, and then said to Cheng Xi, who was still sitting on the bed, "This is the New Year's clothes prepared for Niuniu, you can see if this child can wear them." ”
Xu Sanlang saw that Cheng Xi was sitting in front of the bed with some messy clothes and no shoes because he was laughing with the child, and he frowned slightly and carried the package to Cheng Xi's side, blocking Xu Wenyu's view of Cheng Xi by the way.
Xu Wenyu is a good person, how could he not understand Xu Sanlang's small movements, pretended to look away inadvertently, deliberately sat down with his back to Cheng Xi, but left without planning for the time being, he still had something to ask the two of them.
Cheng Xi saw that Xu Wenyu actually sat down at the table, and knew that this person was afraid that he still wanted to ask about Brother Zhao while the iron was hot, so he frowned slightly and took the clothes in Xu Sanlang's hand, and absentmindedly put it on the hundred-year-old, while thinking about countermeasures.
Xu Sanlang also found out that Cheng Xi was absent-minded, and he didn't plan to leave when he saw the fourth uncle sitting there, and Cheng Xi didn't look disheveled, so he had to sort out Cheng Xi's clothes by himself, and then squatted down to put on Cheng Xi's shoes.
This hundred-year-old is estimated to be due to malnutrition, and he is still older than Niuniu, but he is still a little older in Niuniu's clothes, but he is still a little bigger, but it will be compromised, it is much better than being wrapped in adult clothes.
Cheng Xi slowly and absentmindedly dressed the hundred-year-old, and Xu Sanlang also sorted out his clothes and shoes, and a few people slowly went over to the table and sat down and began to eat.
Xu Sanlang was silent and didn't talk much, and after sitting down, he began to eat his breakfast silently, and he didn't plan to talk to the fourth uncle Xu Wenyu on the side, while Cheng Xi took care of the hundred-year-old to eat, and seeing that Xu Wenyu didn't open his mouth, she didn't plan to speak first.
Seeing that neither of them intended to talk to him, Xu Wenyu had to cough to remind the two of them to pay attention, and he spoke first and almost set up with the two of them, "There is no food in this countryside in winter, and the food is definitely not as good as the county seat, so you will settle for it." ”
Cheng Xi secretly laughed in her heart, just a breakfast, just the food on the table, it was white-flour steamed buns and millet porridge, as well as a plate of pickled meat and fried dried radish, two side dishes, such food, the old lady of the Xu family didn't know how long the meat hurt, if she heard Xu Wenyu still say this to them, she was afraid that she would be angry and wanted to hit the wall, she regretted coming back to the wing room for breakfast, if she ate in the main house, maybe she could still see the old lady Xu jumping her feet angrily.
Thinking like this in his heart, Cheng Xi was silent on his face, and deliberately pretended to be very reluctant to respond, "It's barely passable." ”
Xu Wenyu, who looked arrogant, couldn't wait to go up and pump her, but he had to endure it, and he had to echo with a smile on his face, "I've wronged you, let's fill my stomach first, by the way, the big brother Zhao you are talking about, can you tell me about his situation?" Let me see if the big brother Zhao in your mouth may be the benefactor of my original classmate. ”
Cheng Xi already knew that this person must have stayed to ask more about Brother Zhao mentioned in the morning from her, of course Cheng Xi would not reveal too much, and he had already thought of a way to deal with it in his heart, so he only deliberately pretended to be confused and asked, "Which Brother Zhao?" ”
Xu Wenyu said, "As for the big brother Zhao you mentioned in the morning, didn't you still let you go to his house for the New Year." ”
Cheng Xi had a suddenly realized expression, "Oh, my master's eldest brother Zhao, what does the fourth uncle want to know?" ”
Xu Wenyu heard that Cheng Xi's master was also surnamed Zhao, and asked with bright eyes, "Do you still have a master surnamed Zhao?" What is Master? What is the relationship between that big brother Zhao and your master? ”
Cheng Xi deliberately made a look of "what are you doing when you ask so much", but he still responded obediently, "My master is Chef Zhao of Ruyi Restaurant, his eldest son used to work as a helper in Ruyi Restaurant, and I have always called Brother Zhao." ”
When Xu Wenyu heard Cheng Xi say that he was a cook, the hope in his eyes gradually extinguished, and at this time, he looked at Cheng Xi in front of him biting a piece of cured meat, and complained vaguely "This meat is too hard", so he couldn't wait to step forward and buckle the plate to Cheng Xi's head, and the smile on his face finally couldn't hold back, and gradually became stiff.
Xu Wenyu stared at Cheng Xi for a long time, and he was a little skeptical that this girl was deliberately playing tricks on him, but he felt that it was a little impossible, at such a young age, it was impossible to have such scheming.
Cheng Xi knew that Xu Wenyu was observing her, and she was also a little uncomfortable when she saw it, so she simply raised her head and looked at Xu Wenyu with an innocent face, "What has the fourth uncle been staring at me for?" Is there something on my face? ”
