Chapter 12: Something Happens

Meng Yuxuan understood what Chen meant. She is exquisite, she wants to appease her, but she doesn't want to offend the stingy Xiao Chen, so she has such a entanglement.

Actually, she didn't have to do that at all. As the wife of the village chief, she still has some status in this small village. Even if she and Xiao Chen are cousins, judging from the family's economic situation, Xiao Chen needs her to stutter a lot! What's more, Xiao Chen's popularity is not good, and he is quite excluded in the village. If there is a conflict between the two of them, the villagers will naturally side with her.

Of course, Chan has Chan's style of doing things. It is precisely because of the different personalities of the two of them that they look at things from different angles. Meng Yuxuan can't be the sleek of the Chen family, and the Chen family does not have as clear grievances as Meng Yuxuan. At this point, in her previous life, she had already paid for her stubborn and arrogant self. Therefore, in this life, she is still a little more sleek than in her previous life.

"That's what my aunt said. I'm still young, so there's a lot I don't understand! Aunts and sisters-in-law can't think I'm stupid. After Meng Yuxuan finished speaking, she no longer greeted them. She walked up to Aunt Lin, sat down next to her and said, "Auntie praised me like this, I'm embarrassed to say it." I'd better hide, lest you make fun of the craftsmanship that doesn't make it on the table. ”

"It's not good for my aunt, I've caused you trouble." Aunt Lin whispered: "This family doesn't know what's going on, and they always don't deal with you." ”

"Isn't it related to Jasmine?" A young woman next to her looked gossipy. "You forgot. Half a year ago, Jasmine went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, but she fell into the ice lake without knowing what happened, and it was Xi'er's father who rescued her. Lonely men and widows, and disheveled, is there something wrong? ”

"Nonsense. Didn't it mean that it was just a mistake that the clothes were still dry and didn't fall into the water? Aunt Lin frowned and reprimanded; How can you learn from their nonsense? ”

"The clothes were dry, but they were wrinkled. It looks like it fell into the water and then dried it. Jasmine Chen's girl is usually so proud of what she looks like, how can she tell the truth? The woman scoffed.

"Okay, it's been so long, don't say it anymore. Jasmine girl also grew up with us, and she is a good girl. You can't let these messy things affect the reputation of other girls. Aunt Lin said. Besides, the Xi'er father you are talking about is the man in Xi'er's mother's family, is it appropriate for you to say this in front of her? ”

Only then did the woman remember the relationship between Meng Yuxuan and Shangguan Huan, and she awkwardly shifted her gaze and avoided embarrassment with the work in her hand.

Meng Yuxuan thought that she had listened to a good show and didn't take this matter to heart. Who is Jasmine Chen, she has some understanding, how can a man like Shangguan Huan look down on her?

If you like her, where is her business? If you think about it, you don't need to take those gossips to heart.

"Oh no, no, no! Hui'er Niang, you go and take a look at your Hui'er and your mother's puppy, the two of them suddenly rolled on the ground and kept saying that their stomachs hurt. A thin young man ran from the front yard to the back yard and called out to Hui Erniang.

Hui'er Niang was washing the dishes, and when she heard what the man said, the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and shattered with a bang.

Chen's eyelids twitched, and his face became ugly. Countrymen pay attention to auspiciousness. Today they are holding a 100-day banquet for their little grandson, but they have a stomachache and a broken bowl, no matter how you look at it, it is very unlucky! Fortunately, Chen is a sleek person, and if he was replaced by other spicy women, he would have already scolded at this time. Chen didn't scold, but comforted: "I'm afraid it's cold stomach." There should be no big deal. Hui'er Niang, go and take a look. If you want to find Langzhong, it just so happens that Brother Kui is drinking tea in front, so let him drive the ox cart to run for you. ”

"These two kill a thousand knives. I said earlier not to drink cold water, they prefer to drink it. After a while, so many good things can't stuff their mouths, so they go to drink cold water. What now? My mother's brother is this only seedling, if he dies here, my mother will not have to fight with me? Hui'er Niang ran out while scolding.

She ran so fast that she didn't see a pool of water on the ground, and she fell to the ground and crawled several times before she got up. Now the clothes that were not clean were even dirtier, and the trouser legs that were patched were directly scraped off by the dead branches.

Several women and maidens who were at odds with her forced a laugh.

"Let's go and see, it's not a human life." The other women who were working immediately put down their work and trotted in the direction Hui'er Niang had left.

"How could this happen? Obviously, he found a monk to pick an auspicious day of the zodiac, which way did he collide with the immortals? Chen finally couldn't maintain a gentle smile, his face became very ugly, and his words were not as measured as usual. 、

Meng Yuxuan intends to be friendly with the Chen family, and of course she can't help but comfort her a few words at this time.

"Auntie is not in a hurry, it is inevitable that children will be naughty, maybe they will scare themselves." Meng Yuxuan said: "It's so noisy in front, I don't know if your grandson is scared, do you want to go and see him?" ”

"Right. Why did you forget my good grandchildren? It's still Xi'er Niang who thinks thoughtfully. I'll go and see the good grandson first, and then see what's going on in front of me. Chen said, ignoring Meng Yuxuan and the others, and hurriedly ran towards the room in the backyard.

Feng'er finished washing the dishes and wiped her hands.

"Mother, there was a lot of trouble like that in front, I don't know what happened. I'm worried about Kuroko, so I'm going to see him first. ”

Aunt Lin nodded again and again and said, "I'll go with you to take a look." I'm not in the mood to do things right now anyway. I remember that Kuroko and Hui'er were playing together, don't have an accident! ”

"Then let's go and see!" Meng Yuxuan said.

In the front yard, dozens of men, women and children formed a circle. From the circle, there was a sharp cry of Hui'er Niang. The people next to him persuaded and said everything, and the whole scene was very chaotic.

When Meng Yuxuan and the others arrived, they saw such a scene. They managed to squeeze in. One of the women, who was at odds with Hui'er's mother, asked with schadenfreude, "What's the matter?" ”

"Brother Wang drove the ox cart to find the doctor. I can't say for sure. I didn't know what was going on until the doctor came. One of them responded.

"Dead?" The woman continued.

"No! It's just that I've been throwing up, and I've been calling for stomach pain. The man continued.

"Definitely ate something unclean. The little dog was like a hungry ghost reincarnated, and he ate everything he saw. I used to see him even pick up the rotten red dates that fell into the stinky ditch and eat them. The woman said.

The village chief was a man in his fifties. Just now he went outside the village to pick up a friend he had made outside when he was young, and he had no idea what was going on. As soon as he left, Chen was in the backyard to take care of things, his daughter-in-law was taking care of the children in the room, and his son was busy receiving relatives and friends in the village, so so far no one in their family knew why the two children had stomach aches.

The village head, Wang Hu, has a long beard and wears plain cloth clothes. The good family background makes him not worry about three meals a day like ordinary farmers, plus he knows some words, so his knowledge is different. His eyes were full of wisdom, unlike ordinary farmers who were dazed or dead silent, and he couldn't see any aura. He was a more dignified man.

Of course, this majesty is more than enough for the average farmer. In Meng Yuxuan's opinion, Wang Hu's aura is not as good as Shangguan Huan, who doesn't like to talk.

"What did these two kids just eat? Which of you saw it? Wang Hu frowned and said.

"I saw that they had eaten something red. By the way, they also gave Aunt Lin's sunspots to eat. A villager said.

Aunt Lin and Feng'er happened to hear this, and their faces suddenly changed greatly. Aunt Lin shouted the name of 'Kuroko'. Feng'er also looked for the figure of the sunspot in the crowd.

A small boy squeezed out of the crowd. He was thin, dark, and his hair was messy like weeds.

Like most children growing up in the countryside, he was covered in dust and mud, his face was dirty, and there was snot hanging from his nose. He inhaled, and the snot went into his nasal cavity. As soon as I exhaled, snot flowed out. With a wave of his right hand, the snot touched the skin on his arm, and then there was something sticky on his arm, which was exactly the same as what was on his face.

"Grandma, mother, I'm here." Kuroko cowered her neck in fear. "I didn't steal it. It was Gouzi and Hui'er who stole Grandma Chen's things. ”

Kuroko said, stretching out his palm, revealing something in the palm of his hand.

"What's this?" The villagers looked at each other with puzzled expressions.

"Xi'er Niang, isn't this what you did...... Hawthorn cake stuff? You sent us some last night, right? Aunt Lin said in surprise.

Meng Yuxuan knew that it was going to be bad as early as when Heizi took out the hawthorn cake. If these two children really ate hawthorn cake and had an accident, everyone would suspect her, regardless of whether there was a problem with her pastry or not.

It's just, why did these two children have an accident? There was no problem with her pastries, could it be that the two children were sick? Even if you are sick, you don't get sick at the same time, do you?

"This is the pastry I gave to Aunt Chen." Meng Yuxuan took the initiative to explain to everyone. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. But there was absolutely no problem with my pastries. Our whole family ate last night. Not only did we eat it, but we also gave it to Aunt Lin and Sister-in-law Feng'er to eat. ”

"Hui'er, I'm still here! Dog! Slut, you did it on purpose. You're here to repay me! I'll fight with you. Hui'er Niang pounced on Meng Yuxuan unkemptly and hit her stomach with her head. Her face was full of snot and tears, and her eyes were red, as if she had gone mad.

"Hui'er Niang......" A few women next to her grabbed her. Don't get excited. The village chief will give you an explanation. If she really did it, she didn't want to run away. ”

"She did it." Xiao Chen pointed at Meng Yuxuan's nose and scolded: "Slut, there is a rotten thing with a father who has no mother's education, if you kill my granddaughter, I will definitely make you look good." ”
