Chapter 12: Returning to the Door

Cheng Xi suddenly realized, and while following Xu Sanlang out, he said, "Yes, let's leave without locking the door, this old lady is here, and she has to empty all these things, but is this lock useful?" Will the old lady smash the door? ”

Xu Sanlang paused in locking the door, did not answer Cheng Xi's question, continued to lock the door, and then picked up the basket on the side and said, "Let's go." ”

Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang's uncertain look, and said with some gritted teeth, "This is like a robber, can no one take care of it?" ”

Xu Saburo replied as he walked forward, "Find the village chief." ”

Cheng Xi caught up with Xu Sanlang's footsteps, his face was slightly better, but he still said a little angrily, "Sure enough, it is difficult to prevent thieves day and night." ”

was so troubled by Mrs. Xu, the two of them had a bad face, and they didn't speak, they walked to Cheng's house one after the other, and met people in the village on the way, there were a few people who said hello, Xu Sanlang also bowed slightly, most of them were pointing and talking nonsense and watching jokes, and the two of them were even more lazy to take care of it, so the two of them arrived at Cheng's house.

Cheng Qiang had already stood at the door of Cheng's house and looked around, and when he saw Xu Sanlang and Cheng Xi coming one after the other, he jumped over excitedly, grabbed Cheng Xi's arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, why are you only coming back now, we have been waiting for you to have breakfast for a long time, there are so many delicious foods, I drool when I see it." ”

Cheng Xi retracted the expression on his face and responded with a smile, "Look at you, you're almost drooling, then go back quickly." ”

Cheng Xi ran to the door of Cheng's house by his younger brother, and Cheng Qiang seemed to have completely forgotten the existence of Xu Sanlang, and did not greet Xu Sanlang, only when he arrived at the door of Cheng's house, Cheng Xi found that Xu Sanlang did not follow, so he stopped and turned his head, and saw that Xu Sanlang had been standing in place without moving, so he opened his mouth and urged, "Xu Sanlang, why are you standing there, hurry up." ”

Xu Sanlang was tall and big, and caught up with the two of them in three or two steps, put the basket at the door of Cheng's house, and said, "I'll go back first." ”

Cheng Xi grabbed Xu Sanlang's arm in time, "What are you going back to do now, maybe your milk is blocking the door at this time." ”

At this time, Wu's slightly sarcastic voice came from inside the door, "It's all at the door, and you want to leave?" Is this trying to make people outside say that I am mean and slow to treat my step-son-in-law? Don't hurry up and come in. ”

Cheng Xi had a flattering smile on his face, "He won't leave, let's come in." Cheng Xi knows that in the current situation, the only thing she can rely on in the future is probably this mother's family, she has to deal with her mother's family, and she must not have a bad relationship with the Cheng family.

And when Wu saw Cheng Xi's smiling face, his body couldn't help shaking, and he walked back to the house quickly, muttering in his mouth, "This girl really has a problem with her head, and she actually smiles at me, it's really infiltrating." ”

Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai, who heard the movement outside, also came out, and when they saw Cheng Xi at the door, they all greeted him with a smile on their faces, and Cheng Cai took the lead in saying to Cheng Xi, "Why are you standing at the door, come in." ”

Cheng Chen went over to greet Xu Sanlang, "Brother-in-law, come into the house." ”

Xu Saburo took off the basket on his back, handed it to Cheng Chen, and said, "A few prey, make up for Uncle Cheng." ”

Cheng Chen took the basket and said with satisfaction, "Brother-in-law has a heart." Then he took the basket and sent it to the kitchen.

This is the second time Cheng Xi has come to this Cheng family's yard, but it is the first time to observe this yard carefully, the yard is not big, but it is very clean, there is a big tree in the yard, Cheng Xi looked up, there are a lot of green fruits on it, it should be walnuts.

There are two wings on the left side of the courtyard, one outside against the wall, full of firewood, and the other from time to time comes the sound of pigs chirping, which should be the kitchen and the pigsty, and there is a main hall in front of it, and one ear room on the left and right, and the two wings on the right are closed, and I don't know what to do.

Cheng Xi's look around also attracted the attention of Cheng Cai on the side, and he asked worriedly, "You won't even forget your own home, right?" ”

Cheng Xi touched his nose in embarrassment, and said weakly, "Didn't I even remember the fourth brother, how could I remember the rest, but don't worry, fourth brother, I will definitely not forget it in the future." ”

Cheng Cai touched Cheng Xi's head with a smile, "Although I don't remember anything, I am much more sensible than before." ”

"Is Miss Xi back?" In the left transept, a hoarse inquiry sounded.

Cheng Xi looked in the direction of the left ear room in a daze, guessing in his heart that this voice should be the original father.

Cheng Cai pushed Cheng Xi, who was stunned on the side, and whispered in Cheng Xi's ear, "Go and see Dad, you can't let Dad know that you don't remember him, otherwise he will be sad, he is not in good health, and the doctor said that there can't be too many mood swings." ”

Cheng Xi nodded, followed Cheng Qiang, who was jumping in front to lead the way, and went to the left ear room.

Entering the door, there was a smell of medicine, which made Cheng Xi couldn't help frowning, in his previous life, because of physical reasons, he had dealt with various drugs for a long time, which really made Cheng Xi a little annoyed to smell medicine.

"Xi girl, come over and take a look." The middle-aged man lying on the bed, his face was blue and black and haggard, and when he saw Cheng Xi at the door, a rare red light of excitement appeared on his face, and tears flashed in his cloudy eyes, and he greeted Cheng Xi at the door with a gentle smile from the bottom of his heart.

Cheng Xi saw the middle-aged man who was lying in bed, and the excitement and warm smile she showed because she saw her instantly made her eyes red, and she seemed to see the father who had seen her safe and safe out of the operating room.

It seemed that even the nasty smell of medicine had dissipated, Cheng Xi unconsciously took steps, went over to sit down on the edge of the bed, took the hand of the middle-aged man with a face full of vicissitudes, and muttered, "Are you okay?" ”

Cheng Xi's sudden question made Cheng Dagui, who was injured and bedridden, stunned, and then his face was full of smiles, "Dad is very good, Dad is very good, Dad is just worried about Xi'er, worried about wronging Xi'er, it's useless Dad." ”

Cheng Xi instantly came back to his senses from reminiscing about the past, and responded with a smile, "Dad, don't talk nonsense, our family is still counting on you, you have to get better quickly." ”

Listening to Cheng Xi's "our family", the smile on Cheng Dagui's face gradually dissipated, and he sighed, "It's all because my father is not good, he failed to stop you from taking care of them in time, let you marry the Xu family and suffer, and let the Xu family bully you at will, and pointed you to the hard-headed Xu Sanlang." ”

Cheng Xi thought that Xu Sanlang came with him, maybe he was outside, if he heard this, he was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so he hurriedly said, "Dad, don't say that, I think Xu Sanlang is much better than that Xu Erlang, that Xu Erlang is pampered and useless, he will rely on his family to spoil him and oppress people at will, and he will be a useless person in the future, Xu Sanlang is so capable, he can work, and he is honest and kind, and he is not known how many generations better than Xu Erlang." ”

Cheng Xi's voice defending Xu Sanlang was not small, and Xu Sanlang and the Cheng family brothers who were beckoned to sit down in the hall heard Cheng Xi's words clearly, and Xu Sanlang's face showed a suspicious flush slightly, because the original skin was tanned, but it was not very visible.

Cheng Chen, who was on the side, patted Xu Sanlang on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Look, I'll protect you now, and you will have to treat us well in the future." ”

Cheng Cai on the side snorted coldly, "If you dare to treat Xi'er badly, see how I clean you up." ”

Xu Saburo lowered his head and did not make a sound.

And Cheng Dagui, who listened to Cheng Xi again, praised Xu Sanlang so well, and was a little relieved, but at the same time he was still a little worried, thinking of Xu Sanlang's rumors, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "However, he is a hard-lived man after all......"

"Smack......

The sound of something falling to the ground suddenly sounded in the courtyard outside, and then Wu's loud voice came from the door, "Cheng Dagui, you make it clear to me today, do you think I am a hard-working person, do you think that you broke your leg because of my hard life, ah?" You've got to make it clear to me today. ”

The voice was loud and the speed was fast enough, and the person was already standing at the door as he spoke, pointing at Cheng Dagui on the bed, and yelling with resentment, "You say." ”

Cheng Xi looked at the scene in front of him, his face was stunned, and it took a while to come back to his senses and sort out his thoughts, so this Wu family also has a reputation for being a tough man?

And Cheng Cai Cheng Chen outside also came in, Cheng Cai pulled his wife and persuaded, "Mother, what are you doing, my father is still sick, we have something to say." ”

Wu was angry, how could he listen to persuasion at this time, stretched out his hand to shake off the hand holding Cheng Cai, pointed at Cheng Dagui and continued to yell, "You have no conscience, I serve you so wholeheartedly, give you children, but you think like this in your heart, you wolf heart and dog lungs, what kind of sin did I create, why do you live so hard......"

Cheng Dagui didn't say a word, sat on the bed and blushed, but he was still scolded by the Wu family and didn't say a word.

Cheng Xi looked at this scene, he was a little big, he just came to have a meal, why did this make trouble again, and this farce was all caused by himself, should he come forward to appease him?

"Howl howl, you know howl, my son is not dead, what are you howling, shut up for me!"

Hearing the sound from the courtyard outside, Cheng Xi held his forehead, his head ached a little, although Cheng Xi had only heard it once, he was deeply impressed, wasn't it the original grandmother who was on par with the old lady of the Xu family.
