She glared at Ling Chaofeng, as if she was saying, "Look, come to the door and ask for money." ”

Ling Chaofeng was faint, got up and walked out the door.

Xiaowan was not happy to see Xu's and wanted to go upstairs to hide, Aunt Zhang took her hand and said, "Could it be that you are still afraid of her, why don't you personally drive her away, so that she knows that she is powerful, and she will not dare to come again in the future." ”

Let's say that yesterday Lingxiao Inn gave alms in the town, not only gave porridge, but also gave 100 yuan, and soon people brought this scene back to Qingling Village to publicize it everywhere, saying that Foreman Mu's family had a great son-in-law.

It is said that in a few villages close to each other, let the children ask for it, and they can also ask for dozens of dollars, and at least twenty taels of silver will be given out all day.

Twenty taels of silver, enough for the people in the village to chew grain for a year, Xu loved them generously, and hated that they had money to give to outsiders, and they didn't know how to send some to their parents' house.

So I couldn't bear it anymore, I boiled up Laba porridge overnight, dragged the two children out before dawn, took a donkey cart from Qingling Village to Baisha Town, and then walked on the snow for ten miles, and the two children were tired and half dead.

Ling Chaofeng came out, and saw Xiaowan's younger brothers and sisters whose cheeks were red from the cold, and they were trembling when they stomped their feet, and Xu's lips were also purple from the cold.

There is a fire burning in the store, warm as spring, Aunt Zhang is wearing a single jacket in the evening, and the three stepmothers come in and see that their eyes are straight.

The two children ran to the table, and when they saw porridge, buns and oily poached eggs on the table, they all licked their mouths and asked Xiaowan: "Sister, do you have breakfast, you eat so much for breakfast?" ”

Xu stepped forward and pushed the two children behind him, put down the pot of porridge he was holding, and said: "Look at my troubles, I remember that Xiaowan loves to drink Laba porridge, and I specially sent it, how can I not think that there is a lack of food in the inn." ”

She laughed, looked up at the people on the side, and was startled by the rugged and tall Uncle Biao, only to understand that others could not promote this person as Ling Chaofeng?

Goodbye to the two people on the side, a beautiful middle-aged woman, who can't tell her age at a glance, is dressed neatly and decently, her skin is very white, and she has a smile on her face, but she is very polite. There is another little brother, Xu has heard about it, and passers-by always see him sweeping the floor in front of the inn.

"Late, the porridge is cold, why don't you eat it after it is hot?" Xu Shi was motherly and said to Xiaowan, "Your father knows that you love peanuts, so he picks all the peanuts in this pot, and tells me to watch you drink a bowl before going home." He can't leave today, otherwise he will come to see you, we all know that business is busy in the inn, and you can't leave. ”

Xiao Wan had a cold face, and she didn't look at her, she really didn't understand what kind of cheekiness this woman had. Dare to be affectionate or Ling Chaofeng is too polite, when he swept the tomb last time, if Xiang Gong still threw Mu Wenbao out instead of giving silver, this mother-in-law would not have the courage to entangle. At this time, I invited them in.

The little lady looked at her husband happily, and her eyes seemed to say, "You deal with it, I don't care." ”

This person clearly promised himself that he would never let Xu and her appear in the same place in the future, and he clearly said that he would never see each other for the rest of his life. Xiao Wan felt that he might have forgotten.

Ling Chaofeng didn't forget, he thought that it would be easy to solve these troubles with violence, but Xiaowan had suffered so deeply, and now God let them marry and relieve her suffering, it must be for the sake of her kindness, piety and strength, and it is her blessing.

If you use violence to counter violence, or design to hurt people, you can indeed let out a bad breath, or scare Xu Shi no longer dare to entangle, but in this way, Xing may count the karma on Xiaowan.

If the Xu family has retribution, God will arrange it for her sooner or later, and now it is enough to ensure that this mother-in-law will not hurt Xiaowan again. He didn't want to create evil for Xiaowan for such a wicked person.

Ling Chaofeng is a person who walks between black and white, he has impulsiveness and enthusiasm, and he may survive for a long time, and he has his own reasons.

"Eldest sister, we're hungry, we haven't had breakfast yet." Mu Wenbao hid behind his mother, his eyes looked directly at the poached eggs on the table, but he said to Xiaowan, "Sister, can we take a bite?" ”

Aunt Zhang was still enthusiastic, and came up and said, "Eat, my aunt will bring you dishes and chopsticks." ”

But the two children were very unruly, and immediately climbed to the table and reached out to take it, the poached eggs were so fragrant, they couldn't eat them at home a few times a year.

In the days after the eldest sister got married, she ate a few dumplings, but soon life became tight again, and their mother loved to hide the money, and the heart was only solid when she hid the money, and the words on her lips were always: "This silver will not be used for you to marry your daughter-in-law in the future?" ”

They ate the poached egg in three or two clicks, and there was still one lying on the plate, and the sister and brother looked at each other, faster than anyone else, and quickly grabbed it.

Xu Shi saw that his face was red, and he dragged the two small things down, almost didn't greet him with an ear scraper, and said politely to Ling Chaofeng: "Shopkeeper Ling, excuse me for breakfast, it's okay, you eat, let's sit on the side for a while, and I will say a few words to Xiaowan." ”

"I don't have anything to say to you." Xiaowan, who has been silent, finally opened her mouth, she has been eating and drinking in the inn for four or five months, she has grown up and has grown tall, the clouds and rain between the husband and wife are moisturized, even the breasts are bulging, the small waist is thinly tied with a silk belt, a green jacket skirt, tender and decent, when she speaks, she is not as pitiful as before, her eyes are bright, revealing a little powerful, and she said coldly to her stepmother, "You don't have to send me anything in the future, the inn is a business, and you don't entertain relatives. People don't have to come again. ”

Xu pursed her lips, the fire in her heart was burning, she didn't know that Ling Chaofeng was on the side that day, she was at ease, she used to talk at home, and she unconsciously twisted Xiaowan's face that day, who knew that this offended them.

And today, a room of people in the inn, Xu Shi even ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and he didn't dare to show Xiaowan's face, let alone do it.

But she came with a dead face, and wanted to ask for a few taels of silver to go back, so she could only swallow her anger at this time, pretending to be pitiful and said: "I know, let's leave now, but your younger brothers and sisters' feet are still frozen, let them roast the fire for a while, warm up and then go?" ”

Ling Chaofeng didn't say anything, Xiaowan ignored it, sat down and drank the rest of Laba porridge, Aunt Zhang came out with the dishes and chopsticks, and halfway through, she went back again.

So he sat like this, sat for a quarter of an hour, Xiaowan put away all the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and glanced at the mother and son: "Can you go?" ”

Xu imagined the situation, Ling Chaofeng should pay for it at this moment, but after waiting for a long time and there was no movement, she turned her heart sideways, rolled up her sleeves and said: "Evening, I'll wash the dishes for you, it's so cold, your hands are going to get frostbite." ”

As she spoke, she came up unceremoniously, Xiaowan didn't want her to touch it, the two grabbed it, Xu suppressed his anger, and said with a smile: "Don't be busy, let my mother wash you." ”

Suddenly, he heard the sound of porcelain breaking, Xiao Wan actually dropped the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, Ling Chaofeng looked at it coldly, and he was ready to do it at any time.

But Xiaowan didn't panic, let alone be afraid, and glared at Xu Shi directly: "You are not my mother, my mother died a long time ago, what are you?" What have you done to me in the past ten years, all because I have forgotten it? For my father's sake, I'll let you go, you don't want to toast and don't eat and drink, since you married me off, and since you didn't kill me in the first place, you should understand that sooner or later, one day, you will have retribution? ”

Everyone was stunned, and Aunt Zhang covered her heart and looked at her little girl with admiration.

Xiaowan has never spoken so loudly in her life, she has been in the inn for four or five months, she has really lived a person, she once resisted her stepmother, but she was small and had little strength, and she was always beaten worse as a result, and in order to survive, she learned to endure.

Now she doesn't have to endure it, as long as she is willing, Ling Chaofeng can pinch Xu to death like an ant.

And how much she hates, Xiaowan knows that even in the "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text", people are taught to be tolerant, but she can't do it, she will treat everyone in this world well, except for her stepmother.

"You, you ......" Xu Shi was mad, and he couldn't swallow this breath anymore.

But it wasn't her turn to have a seizure at all, Aunt Zhang walked up, pierced her face like a knife with a sharp gaze, and smiled coldly: "It's going to be windy outside, it's windy and snowy when you turn around, and it's even more difficult to walk on the road. ”

She waved her hand and called Uncle Biao over: "Don't you send people away yet?" ”

Uncle Biao held a cigarette gun in his hand, squinted his eyes and walked a few steps forward, such a tall and wall-like figure, Xu's legs were weak, and he dragged a pair of children outside, and when he arrived at the door, he couldn't help it, and scolded loudly: "Little slut with no conscience, you wait for retribution, God has his eyes open." ”

Xiaowan picked up the pot of porridge, rushed to the door and fell on Xu's body, the pot was broken and the porridge flowed all over the ground, she hated: "Of course God has his eyes open, see how you abuse other people's daughters, and return them to you one by one sooner or later." ”

Xu Shi was about to have another seizure, and the people in the store came out, and a row of people stood behind Xiaowan, so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound anymore, and left with the two children.

This time it was really bad luck, I didn't get a penny, I was humiliated and lost a pot of porridge, I hated Xu Shi gritted his teeth, scolded and beat the two children along the way, and arrived home after noon.

In the inn, a few outsiders came at lunchtime, they didn't stay in the store and only ate, Aunt Zhang greeted them warmly, Xiaowan didn't come out of the house after her stepmother left, until the guests ate and left, she went downstairs to help wash the dishes.

Aunt Zhang boiled a pot of water and went to the back door well, but saw the little lady sitting on a stool wiping her tears and crying very sadly.

"I'll come." Ling Chaofeng appeared from behind, took the pot of hot water, and walked towards his wife.
