Waiting for Ma to go to the side room, Uncle Xu Sanlang continued to greet the two with a smile on his face, "Hungry, just wait for you to come back for dinner, hurry into the house, I heard that you are back, I asked your aunt to make a lot of delicious food." ”

Looking at the false smile on Uncle Xu Sanlang's face, Cheng Xi only felt that his diaphragm should be awkward, even if he wanted to know what medicine the Xu family sold in their bones, he really didn't want to eat at the same table with these hypocritical people, Cheng Xi hurriedly answered, "No, we have already eaten at my mother's house, let's go see where we live, you all go to eat first." ”

After speaking, Cheng Xi pulled Xu Saburo and went in the direction where Ma left, and Cheng Fang, who had not been silent beside Xu Wenyu, greeted Xu Wenyu, "I will also go over to help", and then followed.

Watching Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi leave, the expression on Mrs. Xu's face finally changed back to the original cold, snorted coldly, and yelled at everyone in the courtyard, "What are you doing in a daze, not eating?" ”

Then he muttered in a low voice, "Hmph, everyone is big fish and meat, I'm afraid we won't be able to look down on these foods." Although there was a sense of resentment in his tone, he didn't dare to make too much noise, for fear that Cheng Xi Xu Saburo, who was gradually moving away, would hear it.

The Li family was very stupid, and he couldn't understand the intentions of the Xu family at all, and shouted loudly in dissatisfaction, "It's just two hard-hitting broom stars, why let them come back, and serve them with delicious food and drink?" ”

Xu Wenyu put away his usual hypocritical and gentle face, looked at Li with gloomy eyes, and directly reprimanded unceremoniously, "Shut up, let me remind my second sister-in-law first, if it spoils my business, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

When Xu Wenyu was still a showman, he was the master of the Xu family, and now he is an official in the county government, and everyone in the Xu family is even more interested in him, although the Li family is still dissatisfied with this matter, but he does not dare to refute it again.

However, after Xu Wenyu warned the Li family, the rest of the Li family, who were also worried about the Li family's bad things, also beat the Li family one by one, and the Li family realized the seriousness of this matter.

Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang looked at the courtyard of the Xu family while walking in the direction where the Ma family left, and sighed in their hearts, this courtyard of the Xu family is really not small, although it is also a small courtyard of the farmhouse, but compared with the small courtyard of the Cheng family, it is at least several times larger.

The two of them didn't look fast and didn't go fast, so Cheng Fang quickly caught up, turned his head and looked at the Xu family After everyone entered the house, Cheng Fang went over and grabbed Cheng Xi's hand, and said distressedly, "Is it hard to work in the county?" I've really wronged you. ”

Cheng Xi was thinking about how this aunt would be a lobbyist for the Xu family, or how to talk to her husband for herself, but she didn't want her aunt to say next, but Cheng Xi was a little surprised.

Cheng Fang looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he pulled Cheng Xi and came to Cheng Xi's side and whispered, "This Xu family is not a good place, you better leave early." ”

Cheng Xi turned his head and looked at Cheng Fang in surprise, Cheng Fang simply thought that Cheng Xi was surprised by what he said, but what Cheng Xi was surprised was not her evaluation of the Cheng family, but her aunt, as Xu Wenyu's wife, not only did not stand on Xu Wenyu's side, but also planned to do it against Xu Wenyu?

Cheng Fang saw that Cheng Xi had been staring at him and didn't speak, so he had to continue to persuade, "Although I don't know what their idea is, it will definitely not be a good thing for you, you still have to find an opportunity to go back to the county seat quickly." ”

Cheng Xi also knew that this cousin was really worried about herself, patted Cheng Fang comfortingly, grabbed her hand, and responded with a smile, "They are suddenly so good to us, I have already guessed that their purpose is not pure, aunt, rest assured, I have my own measure." ”

Cheng Fang saw Cheng Xi's confident look, and finally felt a little relieved, looking at the wing room in front of her, and the Ma family cleaning up the house inside, so she didn't say anything more.

Ma Shi watched a few people come in, and greeted with a smile, "This house was cleaned up a few days ago, but there is nothing to clean up, the quilt is a little thin, I will go and move the quilt for you again." ”

Xu Saburo nodded and responded, "It's hard work, aunt." ”

For Xu Sanlang, who had never been silent and too lazy to say a word, suddenly spoke, or thanked him so politely, Ma and Cheng Fang both raised their heads and looked at the tall Xu Saburo next to Cheng Xi in some surprise.

Originally, everyone only noticed the change in Xu Saburo's appearance, but they didn't expect that this temperament also changed, and he didn't talk more than before, and even his facial expression didn't seem to be as rigid as before.

Ma Shi was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses, this Xu Sanlang, who had changed a lot of temperament, reminded her of her son, such Xu Saburo was a little similar to her son, but thinking that her son had left for a few years and had not come back, her mood instantly fell.

Ma Shi said sullenly, "You guys rest for a while, and I'll go and hold the quilt." Then he turned and left.

Cheng Xi looked at the back of Ma Shi leaving, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with her suddenly?" Wasn't it okay just now? ”

Cheng Fang sighed, but he didn't speak, but Xu Sanlang opened his mouth and said, "I'm afraid I remembered my eldest brother." ”

Cheng Fang seemed a little reluctant to talk about this topic again, and hurriedly interrupted the thoughts of the two, "Let's see if there is anything else I need to clean up?" Xi'er didn't come back with a change of clothes, I'll send you two sets of mine in a while to wear first. ”

Cheng Xi shook his head and said with a smile, "No need, auntie, let's go have lunch first, we all ate when we were at home, so let's rest in the house for a while." ”

Cheng Fang nodded, "Okay, then you rest, I'll go first." With a wave of his hand at the two, Cheng Fang left.

When Cheng Fang also left, Cheng Xi spoke, "My aunt doesn't look like she's in a group with your fourth uncle." ”

Xu Sanlang stayed next to Cheng Xi all the time, although Cheng Fang carefully lowered his voice when talking to Cheng Xi, Xu Sanlang still listened to it and nodded in agreement.

The wing room is quite tidy, but it doesn't need to be tidied up too much, Cheng Xi shook the quilt on the bed, and asked curiously, "What kind of person is your aunt?" ”

Xu Sanlang went over to help Cheng Xi shake the quilt, tilted his head and thought about it, and then responded, "I can't see what kind of person it is." ”

Cheng Xi glared at Xu Sanlang speechlessly, and continued to ask, "Then did she feel sorry for you before?" ”

Xu Saburo tilted his head and thought about it again, and replied, "Not really, even if they follow the grandmother or uncle, they all stay silently and don't talk much." ”

Cheng Xi nodded and said, "I think that your eldest aunt is not like the rest of the Xu family, come over and tell her secretly in a while, let's go to your eldest brother and see what she has to bring to your eldest brother." ”

Xu Sanlang nodded, but what he said was another thing, "You are my daughter-in-law, and you should also be called my eldest brother." ”

Cheng Xi rolled his eyes at Xu Sanlang, but still responded obediently, "Okay, I'll call him big brother in the future." ”

After shaking off the quilt, Cheng Xi fell on the bed on all fours, and said to Xu Sanlang next to the bed, "It's really tiring to deal with so many messy people this day, and I feel sleepy and sleep." ”

Xu Sanlang saw that Cheng Xi had closed his eyes and stopped talking, so he helped Cheng Xi cover the quilt and stood at the door waiting for Ma to send the quilt over.

After getting the quilt sent by Ma, Xu Sanlang went into the house and closed the door, followed Cheng Xi, and went to bed, as for telling Ma that he and Cheng Xi planned to go to see the eldest brother, Xu Sanlang still planned to let Cheng Xi tell the eldest aunt.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, except for sleeping, Xu Saburo couldn't find anything else to do, and he really didn't want to deal with the people in this courtyard.

Knowing that he is very stupid and dealing with these people in the courtyard, Xu Saburo still feels that his smart daughter-in-law is more adept, and his stupid head is only suitable for being a foil on the side.

The two of them slept until the end of the night, and there was a knock on the door outside, and the two were awakened by the knock, Cheng Xi sat up, rubbed his sleepy eyes impatiently, and looked left and right, only to reflect where he was now.

"Third sister-in-law, are you there?" After the knock on the door, Xu Lan's voice came.

Cheng Xi kicked Xu Sanlang, who sat up and didn't move, and said, "Go and speak." ”

Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's thin white middle coat, frowned and said, "You put on your clothes first, it's very cold outside." ”

Cheng Xi nodded, obediently put the clothes handed over by Xu Sanlang on his body, and Xu Sanlang also put on his own coat and cotton jacket, and then got out of bed to confirm that Cheng Xi's little jacket was put on before going over to open the door.

When Xu Saburo opened the door, he saw Xu Lan standing at the door with a red face, looking at Xu Lan's red face when she entered the door, Cheng Xi only thought that the weather outside was too freezing, but she didn't expect Xu Lan to hear her conversation with Xu Saburo and misunderstand before she blushed.

Xu Lan went to the bedside, blushed and lowered her head and called "third sister-in-law", Cheng Xi looked at the girl in front of her who was older than herself and called her sister-in-law, no matter how she sounded, she felt a little strange.
