Chapter 9: Black and White
readx;? Ah Zi pretended to be a lady of everyone, spoke softly, had a pleasant face, and spoke and behaved very decently, but she was not at all like the unreasonable, rude and willful little sister-in-law in Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu's mouth, but more like a very sensible young lady.

Na Cui'e is also a person who has seen the world, and has experienced a lot of wind and rain, and she no longer has the rustic atmosphere of a country girl, and she has faded away from the tiresome pretentiousness of a dusty woman, but it is just a little cold.
Ah Zi and Cui'e chatted while eating snacks, and time quickly fell into twilight.
"Little sister-in-law," Qiao Xiaojing glanced out the window and reminded Ah Zidao, "It's not early, we still have to hurry." ”
"Tell me something from the heart," Ah Zi stood up, frowned, looked at Cui'e and said, "I'm really reluctant to go back, I feel very happy and down-to-earth with my sister, it's like home here." ”
"If my sister really likes me as a dusty woman," Na Cui'e held Ah Zi's hand and said with a little sadness, "I'm not afraid of tarnishing your reputation, but you can come to the countryside often, my door here is open for my sister at any time, my sister can come whenever she wants, no one will stop you here, on the contrary, someone will always wait for you." ”
"Why are you so disappointed?" Cuiyu smiled, "It's far from the time of life and death, there is a chance to meet, as long as the two of you are sincere in your relationship, you can move around as much as you can in your spare time, right?"
Ah Zi pursed her lips and nodded, Cui'e smiled and nodded, her expression still mixed with too much coldness.
"Let's go," Qiao Xiaojing gently tugged on Ah Zi's sleeve and comforted with a smile, "If you find a nurse, you don't have to worry too much about the child, you can come back another day, and it won't be a big problem to stay for a while." ”
"Staying here?" Ah Zi turned to Cui'e and asked with a smile, "Sister, can I really live here for a while?"
"Of course," Cui'e said with a smile, "As long as my sister has leisure and can live as long as she wants, this is my sister's other home, and I am my sister's family, waiting for you here at any time!"
"Alas---" Ah Zi sighed again, "Having said that, I also know that my sister is sincere, but my sister is used to living alone, if I really come and stay, I am afraid that there will be a lot of inconvenience." ”
"My sister is too careful," said Cui'e, "I have been an orphan since I was a child, and I never thought that I would have a sister to accompany me in this life. ”
"That's good," Ah Zi was as happy as a child who had gotten a toy, and grabbed Cui'e's hand and smiled, "Then we will decide, I will set a nurse soon, and I will come to accompany my sister again soon, and my sister will not bother me when the time comes!"
"How is that possible?" Cui'e shook her head, "I'll wait for you all the time!"
Later, under the repeated urging of Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu, this so-called sister-in-law left Cui'e "reluctantly", left the big fork, and left Xiaowangzhuang.
And Cui'e, who has been alone for many years (there are many people in the troupe, but they are not in the same class as her), feels that no one has ever been so close to herself, and seeing Ah Zi gradually drifting away, she is really reluctant, leaning against the door of the boudoir, staring blankly at the vast sky.
Qiao Xiaojing and the three of them left Xiaowangzhuang, it was already dark at night, and the road in the countryside was bumpy, which did not hinder the interest of the three of them, talking and laughing, and sometimes not forgetting to tease each other.
Their good mood didn't last long, and when they returned to the Immortal Spring pickle shop, they couldn't laugh anymore when they saw the shelves in the store fall to the ground, the vegetable jars shattered, the tables crooked, and in short, the mess in the eyes.
"What the hell is going on?" It was nearly midnight when I returned to the pickle shop, the door of the store was wide open, and only Uncle Qiang sat quietly under a soybean-sized lamp in a daze, Qiao Xiaojing and the others couldn't care about whether there was a tail behind them and whether there was enemy eyeliner around the store, so they rushed in, looked at Uncle Qiang, and asked in unison.
"You can come back safely," Uncle Qiang said lightly, "I'll rest assured, let's go to dinner quickly." ”
Uncle Qiang did not answer Qiao Xiaojing's question, but walked to the door weakly, stretched out his head to look out, grabbed the door panel standing by the wall and began to insert the door, his movements were unhurried, which made Qiao Xiaojing and them anxious.
Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu and Ah Zi sometimes looked at each other, and sometimes they looked at Uncle Qiang, all shaking their heads, at a loss.
"Let's go, it's too late, let's eat!" Uncle Qiang breathed a sigh of relief and walked inside.
Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu and Ah Zi followed closely behind and came to the basement with Uncle Qiang.
Dazhi and the big man sat still, and the meal was already set on the table.
"What the hell is going on?" Qiao Xiaojing's gaze kept moving between Dazhi, the big man and the dinner table, and said with anger mixed with anxiety, "You guys are talking, do you want to kill the three of us in a hurry?"
Dazhi and the big man secretly glanced at Qiao Xiaojing and lowered their heads again.
"Okay children," Uncle Qiang said, "all sit down, come on, come and sit down to eat, don't be in a hurry to think about those troubles, let's talk while eating, nothing will be delayed." ”
Qiao Xiaojing was in the mood to eat, but she was afraid of refuting Uncle Qiang's face, so she had to pick up chopsticks and take a bite of food at random.
"Uncle Qiang, can you talk now?" Qiao Xiaojing couldn't help but ask again when she saw that everyone's faces were solemn.
"Don't embarrass Uncle Qiang anymore," the big man suddenly stood up, lowered his head and said, "I caused the disaster, I said!"
"Let's talk about it!" Dazhi also stood up and said with a blank face, "I also have a share in this disaster......
It turned out that Qiao Xiaojing took Cuiyu and Ah Zi out to Xiaowangzhuang, and Dazhi and the big man who stayed at home had nothing to do, sitting in the basement chatting, Dazhi complained: "It's been two days, I took Sister Cuiyu away yesterday, and I brought Ah Zi today, but the two of us always sit on the cold bench here, it seems to be useless." ”
"Isn't it?" the big man was also full of resentment, "It's not that the two of us can't do their work, we are always thrown into this black hole, and I feel awkward when I think about it, it's like going out to find a devil and have a good fight." ”
"Forget it," Dazhi sighed, "let's be honest, I'm sure they won't be able to do it sooner or later, and at that time, I don't think they'll throw us away." ”
"I feel like I'm going to get moldy all the time. "The big guy is annoyed and always stays in the basement.
"Why don't we go out for a walk," Dazhi also wanted to go out, so he said to the big man, "Although I've been here for a few days, I really haven't taken a good look at this Zhi'an during the day." ”
Dazhi and the eldest man summed it up, then walked to the pickle shop, and saw Uncle Qiang sitting at the door drinking tea, so he begged Uncle Qiang to allow them to go out of the store, and repeatedly promised that they would never come nonsense and would not cause trouble.
"If someone asks about the two of you," Uncle Qiang finally agreed, and told Dazhi and the eldest man, "You two will say that they are my relatives in the countryside, and they have no choice but to go here because of the disaster in their hometown." ”
Dazhi and the big man went out happily, and it happened that there was a market in Zhi'an, and there were many more vendors and passers-by on the streets than usual, and it was much more lively than in the past few days, which made Dazhi and the big man feel even more happy.
"Look there," Dazhi and the big man were looking around with great interest, wandering along the way, when Dazhi suddenly saw a policeman and a country woman not far away, and said to the big man, "I don't know what happened?"
"Go over and see. The big man walked towards the place where the incident had happened, followed by Dazhi.
Standing aside and hearing their quarrel, Dazhi and the big man realized that because the policeman did not pay for a few fruits from the village woman's stall, the village woman naturally did not want to do a loss-making business, so she quarreled with the policeman, who not only did not care about the shame, but wanted to drive the village woman away because she was obstructing the performance of her official duties......
There were more and more passers-by, and the various condemnations of the policeman became louder and louder, but no one came to their aid, and watched as the savage policeman knocked the village woman to the ground and kept kicking the village woman in the stomach.
"What should I do?" Dazhi clucked with hatred.
"Needless to say, beat that bastard!" the big man waved his fist and walked out of the crowd to the policeman. Without saying a word, he raised his fist and punched the policeman in front of the door, and the policeman fell to the ground and rolled on the ground several times, and the village woman who had been trampled under the feet of the policeman just now took the opportunity to get up.
"Who?" the policeman yelled angrily, "which bastard dares to attack Lao Tzu?"
"It's me," the big man glared at the policeman angrily and reprimanded, "What's the matter? You brute, as a policeman, you are not as good as a robber, you actually robbed the people's food in broad daylight, and put on this human skin for nothing, don't you know the word shame?"
Everyone applauded the big man's move, and there was no lack of reverence in his eyes.
"You ---" The policeman staggered to his feet, and was about to play tricks, when he saw the excitement of the crowd, he had to soften down, and squeezed out of the crowd with his head down.
"Tell you," yelled the big man at the policeman, "the common people are not meat on the cutting board, you well-dressed beasts are allowed to slaughter at will, and if you do this next time, see that I don't break your dog's legs......"
"Good, good, good ......" The crowd of onlookers gave cheers and applause to the big man.
The big man with a happy face left the crowd with Dazhi and continued to wander the street.
This Zhi'an town is a small town with only one main street. The big man and the big man turned to the end before they knew it, and turned towards their residence, but they didn't know that the scoundrel had gathered dozens of policemen and sent eyeliners to follow their whereabouts......
After those scoundrels who specialize in oppressing the good and stealing things in the name of maintaining law and order and protecting the territory and the people leave, this Immortal Spring pickle shop has become the scene that Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu and Ah Zi saw when they came back from Xiaowangzhuang.
Dazhi finished the process of "breaking into trouble", and lowered his head with a little shame.
"This matter really has nothing to do with Dazhi, the disaster is my own, and I accept how to deal with it. "The big man took the initiative to take responsibility and didn't want Dazhi to be affected.
"Okay!" Qiao Xiaojing stood up, shouting and clapping.
Cuiyu and Ah Zi also stood up and clapped at the big man with a smile.
Only Uncle Qiang took a long breath, still expressionless.
