Chapter 46 Asking for Food

Bi'er hurried to the field, and when she found Zhou Lizheng, she said, "Uncle Lizheng, can you lend us some food?" ”

Bi'er's directness not only made Zhou Lizheng stunned, but even the men working in the field were stunned, and the work in their hands stopped, and they all looked at Bi'er with burning eyes, waiting for her to explain things clearly.

Seeing that Zhou Lizheng was just looking at herself and not speaking, Bi'er couldn't help but stomp her feet anxiously, and urged: "Uncle Lizheng, do you want to borrow or not!" Anyway! ”

Zhou Lizheng, who was urged, finally came back to his senses, "What's the matter?" How can you borrow food? ”

"There is no food at home, and the ones I used before were all sent by Hu Langzhong." Bi'er thought about Hua Qingyan's previous words, and told the truth, "Seeing that it's noon, my sister thinks that I can't let the big guys work hungry, so I want the big brothers and uncles to eat enough." But there is no food at home, and now it's too late to buy it, and the rations promised by the old man Hua have not been delivered. ”

When the men heard this, they were both happy and guilty, and came to do a favor and let the little girl who was already poor go to great lengths to prepare a meal for them. Wang Laosan took the lead and waved his hand again and again and said: "Don't use it, the family will send us food, you eat well, don't starve the child, it's okay for us!" ”

"Yes, yes, don't mess with us, the mother-in-law should deliver the meal in a while."

"That's it, if you let my mother know, and let you work hard to get me food, you will definitely give me a slap when you go back!"

"Hehe, my daughter-in-law likes your Qingyan girl very much, and that cauliflower will definitely add a lot of income to my family. You really can't eat this meal, otherwise you won't have anything to eat when you go back! ”

Although the big guys said so, Bi'er's heart was full of gratitude, but she still had to borrow this food. If Hua Qingyan didn't ask for rations from Lao Hua's family, they wouldn't have anything to eat. Bi'er already decided in her heart that Hua Qingyan would not succeed, and she knew much more about the virtues of the old Hua family than Hua Qingyan.

"Miss Qingyan went to Hua's house?" Zhou Li is asking.

"My sister has gone to Hua's house, I still have to go and see." Bi'er was a little anxious, afraid that Hua Qingyan would be treated inhumanely in Lao Hua's family.

Bi'er's worries are also shared by Zhou Lizheng. Zhou Li was instructing a man to go to his house to find his daughter-in-law Shen to bring food to Hua Qingyan's courtyard, while he followed Bi'er to find Hua Qingyan. It's just that when he moved, all the people in the field moved together, following behind them one after another, still twisting farm tools in their hands, and the team marched towards the old flower family in the east of the village.

And here, at the door of the Hua family's old mansion, Wen's hands were wide open to block the courtyard door, and he didn't back down a single step. She stared at Hua Qingyan, her cold eyes were like a sharp knife, as if she wanted to cut the flesh on Hua Qingyan's body to eat! Her words were fierce, as if Hua Qingyan asked for food again, just to ask for her life, of course, her original intention was the same.

Hua Qingyan didn't actually plan to go in, the open door and the place where people could pass by at any time was exactly what she wanted. And at this time, someone happened to pass by, and when she saw Hua Qingyan, who had left the Hua family, arrived at the door of the Hua family's old house, she naturally stopped to satisfy the curiosity in her heart.

Hua Qingyan frowned: "Grandma, my family has run out of food, and today I am inviting some people to help Qingyan open up the land, Qingyan can't let people go hungry to help me work......"

"That's none of my business!" Wen interrupted Hua Qingyan's words sharply, "You have nothing to do with my old Hua family, since you plan to live by yourself, you must recognize your own ability, ask others to work, and don't let people eat, what is the way to come to my house to ask for food?" Hua Qingyan, don't go too far! ”

Wen's words pushed Hua Qingyan into a position beyond her strength, and everyone threw a disapproving look at Hua Qingyan, and she really felt that it was indeed a little unreasonable for her to come to the old mansion now.

The atmosphere was a little stagnant, Hua Xi was happy to see Hua Qingyan eating deflated, but she wanted to let Hua Qingyan help her catch up with Jin Nanshu, and after a while, she finally overcame jealousy over a good life. Huaxi walked forward, glanced at the Wen family, and said softly: "Grandma, although Qingyan has left the old mansion, she is still a member of the Hua family. It must be difficult to come to the door today, and we should help. Grandpa will be happy when he knows that you are helping Qingyan, and he will be able to say nothing when the time comes. ”

Huaxi felt that she was completely thinking about the Wen family, Hua Qi didn't care about the Wen family these days, she completely regarded her as a transparent person, and also let out the words If the Wen family made another moth, she would send the Wen family back to the next village! Wen's face can still see bruises, and the angry Hua Qi is very terrifying, and the attack is extremely heavy.

Hua Qi originally planned to curry favor with Hua Qingyan today, so that she could hand over the good things that could make the Hua family prosperous. If the Wen family helped Hua Qingyan now, then Hua Qingyan would definitely be grateful to the Hua family in her heart, and when Hua Qi said that in the evening, it should be smoother, wouldn't this credit still be counted on the Wen family?

But Wen didn't understand Huaxi's hard work, staring at Huaxi with cold eyes, obviously putting her on Hua Qingyan's side, and her previous attitude remained unchanged, "I said it, if you don't want food, you have to die!" ”

Hua Qingyan gritted her teeth and blinked hard, trying to force out two tears. But before she could succeed, Hua Qi heard the movement and walked out of the house first, and saw a lot of people outside the courtyard through the gap. Seeing that Wen was blocking the door, his face turned black in an instant, and he pushed Wen away: "Why are you blocking the door, get out of the way!" ”

Wen was pushed unsuspectingly, and almost fell down the steps at the door, but fortunately, Huaxi quickly helped him. After Wen stood firm, he immediately turned around and scolded at Hua Qi angrily: "Old immortal, do you want to kill me for a hundred!" Do you think that no one will know what happened when I died, and no one will doubt you? It's a dream! Even if I die, I will make that secret public and make it ......"

Hua Qi's face changed, and he quickly reached out to cover Wen's mouth, and Wen's words naturally did not come out. Hua Qi looked around and saw that everyone's faces had not changed, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Shoved Wen into the courtyard rudely, and then slammed the door shut, ignoring Wen's shouting inside the door. Soon after, Wen was afraid that he was tired, and the sound behind the door gradually disappeared.

However, the others didn't understand, but Hua Qingyan heard it clearly. She looked at Hua Qi's nervous appearance, and couldn't help but guess what kind of secret was hidden in Wen's unfinished words. And Hua Qi seems to care about this secret, and she is still scared!

Hua Qingyan's eyes flashed slightly, looking at Hua Qi, she inexplicably felt that this old man was a little unusual.

Hua Qi also saw Hua Qingyan, and after being stunned for a while, she showed a loving smile: "Why is Qingyan here today?" ”

Being reminded by this, Hua Qingyan remembered today's purpose, blinked, and showed an embarrassed expression, "Grandpa, I'm here to ask for the rations promised to me before." There is no food at home, and seeing that it is noon, I can't help it. Hua Qingyan paused, took a few steps back, raised the corners of her mouth, and forced out a smile, "Forget grandpa, I'd better go back and think of a way." Don't bother you! ”

"Let's go, where are we going?" Zhou Li was blocking Hua Qingyan's way with a serious face, and looked at Hua Qi coldly, "Hua Qi, why hasn't the rations promised by your old Hua family to Miss Qingyan have been delivered today?" ”

Hua Qi was stunned, she didn't expect Zhou Lizheng to suddenly appear, and once again stood out for Hua Qingyan. He remembered the rations, but he hadn't sent them for so long, so he naturally didn't want to give them. This grain is the foundation of the family, saying that this year is rainy, the harvest is much less than last year, so many people in their own family want food to eat. If you have food, you naturally have to pay close to your family first.

After listening to Hua Qingyan's words before, he wanted to pretend to be confused and let Hua Qingyan leave by himself, but he didn't expect Zhou Lizheng to suddenly appear.

"Yes, Huaqi, you are not kind! The land is full of stones and roots, what do you want the girl to plant? Wang Laosan smashed the hoe in his hand to the ground, making a crisp sound of dissatisfaction, "This mountain village belongs to your old flower family, the people are smart, they can't be planted in the field, and the rations are dragged, and when a few children starve to death, you can take back the house and the land, it's really a good calculation!" ”

Wang Laosan's words were sharp, and he simply said that the people of the Lao Hua family were scheming and plotting to kill him. And there were many people around him who matched his words, which made Hua Qi's face change slightly.

As soon as Bi'er saw Hua Qingyan, she ran to her side, and just wanted to speak, she was pulled aside by Hua Qingyan. The two looked at the situation in front of them silently, and Hua Qingyan squinted. This situation was completely within her expectations, and she asked Bi'er to find Zhou Lizheng, just to make the matter of asking for food known to everyone and use public opinion to put pressure on the Lao Hua family.

Seeing that there were more and more people around him, and the men behind Zhou Lizheng were holding farm tools in their hands, Hua Qi knew that he couldn't pretend to be confused at the moment no matter what. He rolled his eyes, thinking about what kind of explanation would sound more reasonable, when he saw Hua Shanmin's daughter-in-law come out of the crowd. Hua Qi squinted, stepped forward and grabbed Wang Chunhua's arm and pulled the person to his side, and said in a preemptive voice: "Good people's daughter-in-law, I asked you to send the food to Qingyan!" Where did you go? ”

Hua Qi's strength was very great, Wang Chunhua was caught and screamed in pain, listening to his words and feeling inexplicable, she just wanted to refute a few words, but Hua Qi didn't give her a chance to speak.

"Wang Chunhua, did you take the food home! Hurry up and hand it over! That's rations for Qing Yan! What we promise must be done! Hua Qi dragged Wang Chunhua and threw the person to the ground, and the force was so heavy that it seemed to throw Wang Chunhua to death.
