Chapter Eighty-Seven: Protecting the Calf

"Did she disrespect her in-laws?"

"Didn't you give what you should give for the New Year's holiday, didn't you spend the money you should spend?"

"When my sister went back to her parents' house, did she make any irresponsible remarks?"

"Have you been polite and courteous to your concubine?"

"Did you bully any of your children?"

Huo An questioned one after another, and everyone fell silent. Kou Xi's little head, which had just shrunk into his neck, lifted little by little with his question.

"A little girl in Kouxi, I left a few days after I left my hometown and got married. She didn't know anyone in this place, she didn't even have anyone to talk to. How many years have we been running in as a family, and there are still times when we are angry at war. Why is she so unrelenting?"

Huo An took a deep breath: "The letter you wrote to me is all wrong with mentioning Kou Xi. Kou Xi wrote me a letter to my family, not a word of yours has not been said. ”

Kou Xi raised his head and looked at Huo An, and then at everyone: "What's wrong with me?"

It's still embarrassing to say bad things about people and be discovered on the spot.

"Last time you wrote me a letter home!" Huo An was the first to slap Gao Liman: "You said that Kou Xi is unwilling to go to work, and the job you finally asked for is afraid that you will be blind." Let Horu go to work instead!"

Huo An said this and took Kou Xi's hand, and the warm palm held her slender fingers in the palm of his hand.

"Later, Kou Xi was not very willing to go to work again, and you wrote to tell me that her mother's family came to fight. It made everyone in the village and outside laugh enough, and the people in the village said that Kou Xi was a dominatrix. Huo An looked at Li Cuilian: "You asked Xinyu to write this letter to me!"

Li Cuilian said again: "Later, the eldest sister and Kou Xi's family letter also arrived, and the two of them said one thing in the letter, but no matter how you look at it, it was done by two people!"

Huo Jiaojiao sat up straight: "Why did the two of them do it?"

"You said that Kou Xi only knows how to enjoy every day, and he likes to wave around every day when he dresses up like a goblin. I usually don't calculate how to spend money, what is good to buy home. also said that Kou Xi didn't work when he came home from work, and as soon as he got home, he got up and locked the door and ignored anyone. This is Huo Jiaojiao's first letter to her family, and she is not at ease when she sees Kou Xi drawing eyebrows and eyes. So she quickly wrote a letter to Huo An, saying that Kou Xi had such and such problems.

"Kou Xi told me that she was willing to help her family make money together for the sake of her family and everything. What others can earn, our own people can also earn. The conflict between the family is a housing problem, and now she can't join the army and can't build a house, so the whole family will work together. In the future, I will buy a bigger base and divide it out to live my own small life. Huo An clenched Kou Xi's hand: "I agree with what she said. ”

Huo An looked at Huo Dagui: "I didn't marry my daughter-in-law and come back to cook for you, let alone let her beg to coax you big guys." She did whatever she wanted in the first 20 years, and my father-in-law was afraid that she would be wronged. is afraid that she will be bullied by her stepmother, and she has been beating singles. How can I, Huo An, marry a daughter-in-law and come back to be a cow and a horse?"

"Who asked her to be a cow and a horse!" It seems that stepmother is a sensitive word, and Li Cuilian couldn't help but stand up and roar when she heard these two words.

"In that case, let's make it clear today!" Huo An looked at Huo Dagui: "As a daughter-in-law, is there anything Kou Xi has done badly?"

"No, really not!" Huo Dagui also understood, even if there was, he couldn't say it.

Huo An made it clear that he was protecting his daughter-in-law, what else was there to say.

"That's fine!" Huo An said to Huo Jiaojiao: "Sister, I know that your temper has one thing to say and two to say. I don't always turn over old accounts after things, and the person I trust the most in my life is you. ”

Huo Jiaojiao snorted coldly, but the expression on her face softened.

"Sister, Kou Xi is a pampered little girl. She has been very squeamish since she was a child, and I am already impressed that she can do so much work at home. In the future, if she has something at home, you must help me take care of her. Besides, your noodle business, no one is born to do business. Since it is said that doing business, it is common to have profits and losses. You bring all the goods back to us, and Kou Xi will handle it for you. We will collect as much as you sell to others. It takes a lot of effort to do things, and my family doesn't talk to each other!" Huo An stopped Huo Jiaojiao's action of wanting to speak: "Everyone is here today, let's have a family meeting." ”

Huo An hugged Kou Xi in his arms, it was the first time that Kou Xi had been treated like this for such a big age. She blushed and struggled twice, where could she break free from the crook of a strong man's arms.

"She's not like any other housewife, so don't look at her with your own eyes. She said that she was only twenty-one years old after the New Year, and if she was left outside, wouldn't she also be a child who went to school in college? How old did you old ladies say? What you said yesterday, and what you did was appropriate?" Huo An looked Zhang Yao up and down: "Second sister, you are the same, the married daughter is a distinguished guest when she returns to her parents' house." If Kou Xi neglects you, I can't even agree. Don't say that you can't work now, even if you don't have this thing, you should sit on the kang and chat with your family to enjoy the happiness when you come back. My daughter-in-law is young and has little experience, so she doesn't have as much experience as you. In the future, I hope you can let her go more. ”

Zhang Yao pouted and felt that her face was hot: "I didn't say anything, what do you mean by being on the line!"

She couldn't understand it, she was very simple-minded. The corners of Huo An's mouth curled up inadvertently, and her eyes were quite disdainful: "She sells goods seriously when she goes to work, cleans the house seriously when she gets home from work, and thinks about saving more money in her spare time." ”

"You're not at home every day, you know?" Zhang Yao was not angry, she looked at Huo An's hand that had been on Kou Xi's shoulder. I feel very uncomfortable, she is a person who has never been protected by Song Jiangang like this.

The Song family is so poor, Zhang Yao thought that she could live a life in her in-law's family. But I didn't expect my mother-in-law to say anything that I couldn't refute. Now that she saw Huo An protecting Kou Xi like an old hen, her mouth was filled with a bitter taste.

"Of course I know!" Huo An's mouth showed a hint of mockery: "I have read Kou Xi's daily work notes, the daily flow account of selling goods, and the work experience records her thoughts word by word." She went back to her parents' house or went with her to load the goods, what she did that day, what she made and what she lost, and what she saw and heard and what kind of thoughts. She really wrote these down in her notebook. ”

Huo Jiaojiao was dumbfounded: "Still, still, still recorded in the book?"

Kou Xi didn't expect Huo An to look at her diary in a grand manner, but what she was worried about was whether she had said something about the future life. If so, wouldn't Hoan think he was a madman?

On top of that, she knitted a few sweaters to give her home a new look. There is also a special book for the stitching of the sweater, on which you can write and draw to write down your thoughts. Is it hard to know what she usually does?"

Huo An sneered: "Not to mention that I have already seen the results of her learning." Yesterday's Chinese New Year's Eve table of dishes, if it wasn't usually prepared, could a girl of her age make it?"

said that Kou Xi didn't work at his mother-in-law's house, why didn't Huo An believe it so much!
