Chapter 44: See once and hit once

Seeing Ling Chaofeng coming, Xiaowan quickly turned around and wiped away her tears, and then wanted to put her hand into the cold water to wash the dishes, but he stopped him and said, "Wash it with hot water." ”

Xiaowan smiled hard: "Silly, the well water is warm in winter and cool in summer, how can I be so delicate." ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "You feel warm because the ground is cold, but in fact it is still cold, much cooler than summer, don't freeze your hands." ”

He poured the hot water evenly into several basins, rolled up his sleeves to help, and passed on a wash with Xiaowan and then dried it carefully, seeing that Ling Chaofeng's hands and feet were so neat, she asked with a smile: "Xianggong also worked?" ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "In the first two years of coming here, I washed dishes, wiped the floor, changed the sheets and poured swill, I did it every day. ”

Xiao Wan asked in surprise: "You are a little young master." ”

Ling Chaofeng said with a smile: "My mother said that you can't do everything by yourself as a boss, but you must know how to do everything, otherwise how can you know if you are doing well." ”

Xiaowan felt that it made sense, and asked with a smile: "Then I did a good job?" ”

Ling Chaofeng looked at her, stretched out his fingers, and gently wiped away the unwiped tears on her face, Xiao Wan hurriedly dodged it, touched it with her wet hand, and couldn't tell whether it was tears or water. She said, "I'm not crying. ”

"I didn't say you cried." Ling Chaofeng smiled lightly, Xiaowan's mind was simple after all, and he didn't admit himself at once.

"Hurry up and get to work, it's cold outside." Xiaowan lowered her head and ignored him, muttering, "Why don't you enclose this place in the backyard, everything in the store is good, it's just that this well is outside, it's inconvenient." ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "Well water is the same as river water, it should not be private, my mother knows that there is a well here, so she built next to the building he built, the well is here, if someone passes by and is thirsty, it is convenient for them to get water." ”

Xiaowan asked: "Then what if someone has bad intentions, the people who have wells in our village are locked after taking water, for fear that others will abuse them." We don't have a well at home, I have to carry water every morning, the woman is very particular, the well water can only be used to wipe the floor and wash clothes, she wants to eat the spring water flowing down from the back mountain, I ...... every day"

At this point, Xiao Wan won't talk about it. When she first came, according to her old habits, she did not complain or show her scars, and would rather her sleeves be wet than show her scars.

But now, a scar on her body is gone, but she is becoming more and more accustomed to casually talking about her past suffering, not to let others know how miserable she is, she always says it unconsciously.

She thinks this is not good, she doesn't want to be pitied, everyone here loves her, she doesn't need to do more, if she talks too much, everyone will be annoyed.

Ling Chaofeng listened quietly and didn't speak, but he covered Xiaowan's hands into his arms, and the warmth in her husband's arms drilled into her heart along her fingertips, Xiaowan looked at him, tears couldn't help but gush out, and she choked up: "Xianggong......"

"Crying in the wind, your face is going to be dark." Ling Chaofeng smiled gently, "Those expensive balms are not wasted. ”

Xiaowan buried her face in his chest and whimpered: "What if she still comes, I feel so embarrassed, even if I don't recognize them, I can't change that they are my mother's family, and I can't beat them or kill them, will I be so entangled for the rest of my life?" Didn't you say that there was a way for her to never dare to appear in front of me again? ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "I didn't do what I promised you, Wanwan, I'm sorry, don't be angry." ”

Xiaowan shook her head again and again: "I'm not angry, and I don't want you to be sorry, it's them who hate them, I know you must have your reason." ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "It's not reasonable, I just think that they are not worthy of what we do, and they are not worthy of our efforts, but if you really want me to break their legs, or even ask for their lives, I will definitely do it." ”

In the man's eyes, a murderous aura colder than the wind and snow was steaming, Xiaowan's heart trembled, and she understood, why did she let the mother-in-law dirty her husband's hands. Hurting her or killing her will inevitably cause trouble afterwards, even if Ling Chaofeng can retreat from the yamen, I am afraid that he will have to fall into the hands of others.

Xiaowan felt early on that Xianggong's friends were all over the world, and at the same time, he must also have enemies. There will definitely be people who are jealous of him, and there will be people who hate him for getting in the way, so why bother to make trouble for the husband who loves her for the sake of Xu's mother-in-law.

It's Xiaowan herself, if she makes a wish with the jade ring, she may be able to make Xu's life whine, no matter how bad it is, she can't get close in this life, but she can't be reluctant. The jade ring is so sacred, no matter which god or Bodhisattva gave it to her, she must have seen her kindness and kindness, and if she used it to do such a thing, she really failed God's kindness.

In this way, without Ling Chaofeng's explanation, Xiaowan figured it out by herself, and her eyes gradually shone brightly, and finally just said: "I'm afraid that time will go by, you see my mother's family so disgusting, and even I don't care about anything else, whether she is dead or alive has nothing to do with me." ”

Ling Chaofeng said with a smile: "Next time she comes back, you can drive her away again, and you just scolded her like that, at least a little bit of pleasure." ”

Xiaowan waved her fist: "Actually, I want to beat her, but I think there are too many people in the store, and when I turn around, she goes around talking nonsense, saying that we bully more and less." ”

Ling Chaofeng shook his head: "She likes to say whatever she wants, and she saves us from preaching it ourselves." ”

Xiao Wan was happy, and leaned on Ling Chaofeng's shoulder and said, "They used to say that if I get married, I will soon become a dominatrix, and I think about it, I will be a dominatrix and scare them to death." In the future, I will fight once, and I will fight once. ”

At this time, Xu sneezed at home, but her nose was still blocked and she couldn't breathe.

The mother and daughter fell on the bed, she cried and laughed and pointed to Foreman Mu who was sitting on the side: "You gave birth to a good daughter, why didn't I strangle her at the beginning, I raised you so big, and your daughter treated me like this." When I'm ready, I'm going to dig out the woman's grave and feed it to the wild dogs. ”

Foreman Mu knocked the cigarette stick on the kang head, and said quietly: "You just make trouble, I will collect the body for you when you die." ”

Xu Shi was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and pounced on him and twisted into a ball.

Foreman Mu let her first, she pulled her hair and bit her face to death, which angered the man, pressed her on the kang and beat her severely, Xu's ghost cried wolf, alarming everyone outside to see the excitement, Wen Bao was even more stupid, sitting in front of the door and crying: "My father beat my mother, my father beat my mother." ”

By the afternoon, everyone in the village knew that Xu had asked her man to clean up.

In fact, the people in the village have long been strange that the Xu family has abused the eldest daughter of Foreman Mu like that, and for so many years, the father has not said a word, and he secretly said that he was a wreck. Now that his daughter is married, he has hardened up and started to quarrel with his mother-in-law, and even started to do it.

Aunt Wang came to visit the door in the afternoon and brought ginger soup to the mother and daughter to drink, Xu's embarrassed crooked on the kang, sick again, his body was in pain, tears flowed, and said to Aunt Wang: "He wants to kill me, so that her daughter can find her a young one, but I will die and become a ghost, and I will not let their father and daughter live in peace." ”

"I advised you a long time ago, don't mess with him." Aunt Wang said, "In my opinion, in the past, he always let you, because he was afraid that you would go out, and you would abuse Xiaowan even more, but now that Xiaowan is married, he has nothing to worry about." ”

Xu Shi smacked hard: "His aunt, others are talking nonsense, you can't talk nonsense, when did I abuse his daughter?" ”

"Yes, yes, I'm talking nonsense." Aunt Wang turned to say, "Anyway, you listen to my advice, the days are long, why are you in a hurry." ”

Xu's head ached, sighed, and chanted: "Hard can't work, soft can't work, I think I'm still dying of heart as soon as possible." ”

Aunt Wang smiled: "When Wenbao grows up and marries a daughter-in-law, let alone eight or nine years, in these eight or nine years, they will have nothing to do?" You just have to watch coldly and start when you have the opportunity. ”

"Hey......"

"That's right." Aunt Wang asked, "It's been four or five months since I got married, and there is no movement in my stomach?" ”

In the village, the top priority of marrying a daughter-in-law is to give birth to a baby, what pity is fragrant and cherished, what is important to the body, there is no movement for four or five months after entering the door, the mother-in-law should show her face, if there is no news for a year and a half, then the daughter-in-law's life will be sad.

But Xiaowan didn't have these worries at all, the menstrual affairs in the past few months came as scheduled, and the bed room was also very affectionate, she didn't take the decoction of avoiding the child, Ling Chaofeng was very careful.

She asked Xianggong why she didn't want their dolls, and Ling Chaofeng told her to wait for two years, let her take care of her body first, and then grow up.

On the same day, because of Xiaowan's wish, Yue Huaiyin's ankle healed when she woke up in the morning, although everyone thought it was incredible, but when the doctor came to see, he couldn't see that he had been injured at all.

Xiao Cui said that it must be the manifestation of the Bodhisattva, and she was reluctant to suffer from the young lady, but Yue Huaiyin was worried about whether she would go to the Lingxiao Inn in two days, so as to thank Ling Chaofeng.

On this day, there was also a Laba Festival in the rouge shop, Yue Huaiyin had no appetite, and in the evening, Su Su brought a bowl of porridge and persuaded her: "Miss, you should eat a bite." ”

Yue Huaiyin was embarrassed, moved the spoon, and saw Su Su standing aside and stopped talking, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Su Su said: "Miss, when will our store close for the New Year?" ”

"It closes on the twenty-eighth day of the year and opens on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." Yue Huaiyin said, "Do you want to go back to your hometown with your eldest mother?" ”

Su Su said: "It's not to go back to my hometown, my brother is at home, maybe he wants to sell me somewhere, it's Xiaowan who asked me and my mother to go to the inn for Chinese New Year's Eve, I want to ask you if it's successful." ”

Yue Huaiyin said with a smile: "It's natural, you and the eldest mother are just working here with me, not selling them to me as slaves, what do you want to do during the rest day, you don't have to ask me in the future." ”

"Thank you, Miss."

"How many days are you going?" Yue Huaiyin was actually very envious, she also wanted to go to the inn to spend Chinese New Year's Eve, and wanted to keep the New Year with Ling Chaofeng.

"It's supposed to be a few days, but we'll definitely come to you on the first day of the new year." Su Su Dao.

"Don't worry, you can play with Xiaowan, what's the fun, come back and tell me." Yue Huaiyin took two hangs of money from the cash box and gave it to her, "It's not good to come to the door empty-handed for the New Year, go back and buy something casually, for an auspicious picture." ”

Su Su didn't dare to accept it, Yue Huaiyin asked her to take it, and pushed it a few times before she accepted the money, but when she went out, the young lady told again: "If there is something fun, remember to tell me when you come back." ”

"I made a note of it." Su Su couldn't think so much, and happily agreed.

Yue Huaiyin sat down, she had no appetite to eat laba porridge again, thinking back to the short time she spent alone with Ling Chaofeng yesterday, if such a man was her husband, how happy she should be.

But she can't forget it, Xiaowan's face changed suddenly when she broke into the door, and she couldn't help but want to send herself away, although the little lady is stupid, but the woman seems to have a natural instinct and can keenly perceive that someone is worried about her man.

She thought, it's better to avoid it these days, since Xiaowan is resistant, she will definitely be wary of her, she doesn't plan to tear her face just like that, what she thinks about is that in the future, she will become Ling Chaofeng's woman, even if she shares a husband with Xiaowan.

At this time, Xiaocui pushed the door in, and saw that she had barely eaten, and said a lot of words in a rambling manner, Yue Huaiyin was very annoying, but Xiaocui also said one thing, which made her interested.

"Laifu from the shop next door said that before noon, I saw a mother-in-law in the town leading two children to scold all the way, and rented a donkey cart to go to Qingling Village. Xiao Cui said matter-of-factly, "When I said that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they were still fighting on the road." ”

Yue Huaiyin asked, "That's Xiaowan's mother?" ”

Xiaocui waved her hand: "I heard Su Su say that it was the stepmother, Xiao Wan's mother died early, she would have saved Su Su at the beginning, just because she couldn't see Su Su being abused, and said that she was also a stepmother, Aunt Chen treated Su Su as her own flesh and blood, but her stepmother tossed her to death." ”

Yue Huaiyin listened, thoughtful, Xiao Cui exclaimed: "Laifu said that the mother-in-law was afraid that she went to the inn and came back shamelessly." ”

The maid was chattering on the side, Yue Huaiyin had already fallen into her own contemplation, she wanted Ling Chaofeng, even if she shared a husband with Xiaowan, but if she could be alone...... Why, why do the good men in the world not belong to her.

"Miss?" Xiao Cui suddenly called her again.

"What's wrong?" Yue Huaiyin came back to his senses.

Xiaocui said: "You celebrate the New Year...... Don't go home? ”

In fact, even Xiaocui and everyone in this shop were bought by her all the way to Baisha Town, and all of them didn't know where Yue Huaiyin came from.

Yue Huaiyin said with a smile: "This is my home, you can go home separately, or stay for the New Year, just arrange it yourself." If you go home, I will pay for the journey, and if you don't go home, I will give you the New Year's money. ”
