Chapter 135: Take a step back

After cleaning up the trivial things after the meal, Li Xin took out the sweet potatoes buried under the ashes in the stove. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"

The little doll is weak, and it is good for him to grow up with a little coarse grain.

Li Xin called Yang'er, took a bowl of sweet potatoes, peeled off the skin on it, and the fragrant sweet potato flavor spurted out in an instant.

Holding the bowl to Yang'er, Li Xin took a spoon and gave it to him and said, "Scoop and eat by yourself, stay at home with your aunt, and go out for a trip." He touched his head as he spoke.

Han Hao had a full meal, touched his stomach and talked to Guan Wen for a while, and also proposed to leave.

Li Xin came out and said with a smile: "Steward Han went back and told Madame, I should do my best." Where today's hospitality is not good, please forgive Steward Han. ”

"What did my sister-in-law say, this meal is very much to my liking." Han Hao laughed loudly: "My sister-in-law's skills are so good, even if she is a chef, she can also make it." ”

Li Xin hurriedly said modestly: "Steward Han said that I laughed, I just know a little bit about fur, I like to study some novel ways to eat, and the others are really not as good as the chefs." ”

Steward Han didn't say much, and exchanged a few more words with Guan Wen and Li Xin, and then took his family to leave. When he left, he asked Li Xin when he would be able to come back to see the results, and Li Xin said: "It's okay, there are results, I will visit your mansion, lest you have to run a few more times as Steward Han." ”

Steward Han heard her say this, knew that she was on the road, nodded and smiled: "Then it will be troublesome for the little sister-in-law." ”

After the Shen Mansion and his party left, Li Xin also briefly explained to Guan Wen about Xing'er looking for her, saying: "I'll go to her house to have a look, this is also a bad time, she came when we went to the town." ”

Guan Wen frowned, and called Guan Quandao, who went to see off Han Steward in person, and came back: "Your second brother can't be home recently?" ”

Guan Quan was stunned for a moment before he said: "It's still the same as a few days ago, when I came back after dark, I went out at dawn, and I rested at home for the night." ”

"He didn't tell his family anything?"

"No ......" Guan Quan shrank his neck: "I don't know what the second brother is doing recently, it's elusive." More mysterious than the sixth brother and his father. ”

"What happened to them?" Guan Wen suddenly remembered what his father and sixth brother had said privately that day, and his brows immediately rose: "What did they do again!" ”

Probably because Guan Wen's voice was stern and his expression was scary, Guan Quan couldn't help but shrink back. Only then did he quickly say: "I don't know what my father and sixth brother do, it's just that they rarely stay at home during the day, and my father often goes to the village to gamble with those old ruffians, and after a while, there is no one; The sixth brother went to the town every two days, and I don't know what the situation is in the school......"

Then he paused again and said, "The sixth brother's bundle seems to have been handed over by my father......"

Guan Wen sighed, waved his hand a little tiredly, and said, "."

Li Xin said on the side: "Fourth brother, you can take care of the materials." If the price is right and the material is of high quality, it will be set. What are the requirements of Master Wu for the second batch of materials, you can ask him later. ”

Guan Quan immediately said, "Got it, sister-in-law." ”

"I'll go out now."

Li Xin patted Guan Wen's hand and said, "If you don't worry, just go to the old house and have a look, it's your second brother." ”

Guan Ming and Guan Zhicheng are not in her scope of concern.

Guan Wen thought for a while and nodded: "Then I'll go back and take a look." He asked Guan Quan again: "Is my father at home with your second brother and sixth brother?" ”

"Dad and sixth brother are not here." Guan Quan shook his head: "Dad went out early in the morning, yawned and said to go to the village to gamble." The sixth brother seems to have gone to school. The second brother doesn't know if he's gone. He was still asleep when I came. ”

Guan Wen took a blanket and went down the slope with Li Xin, and instructed Guan Quandao: "You can help take a look here." ”

Guan Quan is busy.

Ah Mei took Yang'er to watch the excitement, and whispered to him what those uncles and grandfathers were doing. Amuse him. Yang Er hugged the bowl and scooped the sweet potato meat to eat, smiling as she smiled.

Guan Quan came over and asked, "Sister, which family is this?" He noticed that the little boy had been distracted by other things when he wanted to ask, and now he was free to ask.

Ah Mei pursed her lips and said, "This is Yang'er, the doll adopted by the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and it will be the baby of our family in the future." ”

Guan Quan's eyes widened suddenly: "Adopted ......"

"The chief dart head of the dart board where the eldest brother used to dart passed away, Yang'er is his grandgrandson, those relatives don't want to raise him, the eldest brother and sister-in-law took him to the yamen and crossed the bright road to pick him up and raise it himself." Ah Mei touched Yang'er's head with pity, coughed when she thought of something, and said, "Yang'er is good." This is the fourth uncle. ”

Yang'er obediently put the bowl on her thighs that were close together, raised her head and shouted at Guan Quan: "Fourth uncle." ”

Guan Quan hurriedly responded embarrassedly, his face extremely strange.

It took a long time to choke and cough, and asked Ah Mei: "This baby...... What is your full name? ”

"My real name is Wei Yucheng, and my sister-in-law changed her name to Zhiyang." Ah Mei smiled slightly: "I think the name of my sister-in-law is very good......"

Guan Quan answered. looked at the little doll who obediently ate sweet potato meat, and didn't know how to react for a while.

“…… Dad and they don't know yet, when is the eldest brother going to tell them? ”

Guan Quan asked quietly. Ah Mei shook her head: "Sister-in-law said that the eldest brother is measured." Yang'er was brought back by the eldest brother and sister-in-law yesterday, and the eldest brother should go to talk to his father in two days. ”

Guan Quan said "oh", and went to Master Wu to communicate and discuss the second batch of materials.

Li Xin and Guan Wen went down the slope and parted ways, one went to the Guan family's old house to see the situation, and the other went to Xing'er's house to see the situation.

Li Xin's apricot family has been here several times, and she is familiar with the road, and she knocked on the door of Xing'er's house, and Xing'er opened the door for Li Xin with a pair of red eyes, which scared Li Xin.

"What's wrong with your eyes?" Li Xin hurriedly took Xing'er's hand into the house, closed the door with her backhand and led people in, and asked eagerly: "I went to the town yesterday for something, and you just didn't come to look for me, and Ah Mei just remembered to tell me about it today." As he spoke, he turned Xing'er's face to himself and asked, "What's wrong with you?" My eyes are so red, did I cry last night? What's the big deal with me? ”

I turned my eyes to look around, and felt that Xing'er's house was deserted, so I couldn't help asking, "What about the well-off?" ”

As soon as she mentioned Xiaokang, Xing'er's originally red eyes instantly became bloodshot again.

Li Xin "chuckled" in her heart, Xing'er wiped her eyes and said to Li Xin; "Xiaokang is at his grandfather's grandmother's house."

"I thought something had happened to Xiaokang!" Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "Since you are at his grandfather's grandmother's house, what do you have to be sad about?" ”

"Ah Wu's father went to find Xiaokang, his grandfather and grandma......" Xing'er sobbed and said: "I only found out yesterday that my father-in-law and mother-in-law said that the Guan family can't tolerate a well-off." They took their grandson away, and the Qian family would raise it, and they wouldn't let me be burdened......" and then cried again: "I didn't know what to do yesterday, Yinhuan has a big temperament." I couldn't tell her about these things, so I thought about going to you to discuss, but I didn't know that you were there......"

"So you're hiding at home and crying by yourself?"

Li Xin was completely relaxed, patted Xing'er on the back and said, "How old is it, I don't know what you're worried about." ”

Xing'er wiped her eyes, and her nasal voice was muffled: "Being well-off is the root of my life, and if I marry Awu, the price is to separate me from Xiaokang." I'd rather be a widow for the rest of my life......"

"Look where you said, there is a way to solve the matter, what are you doing so pessimistic."

Li Xin wiped her tears with a handkerchief and pushed her: "Your father-in-law and mother-in-law are old, and they are your uncle and aunt, so they naturally cherish you." They said that they would not let you suffer if they took the well-off, on the one hand, they felt sorry for the well-off and thought that he would marry with you. The future father-in-law doesn't like it, the child will suffer, and on the other hand, he also wants you to live a good life. They're old after all. How can I help you take care of your children all the time? You might as well just like this, wait until you become a relative to your second brother, let the second brother split up and go out alone, and then bring the well-off back, isn't it the same? ”

Xing'er immediately wiped her eyes, and Li Xin's words pointed her a clear way.

"Is that okay?"

"What's not to do?" Li Xin said with a smile: "Recently, the second brother doesn't know what to do when he goes out early and returns late every day, and I don't care about some things in my family." I heard that the second brother had a falling out with his father a few days ago, and he was arguing to split up, since he had this idea, you might as well blow the pillow wind again. Completely separated, the two of you can also be in charge. You still don't understand this truth? ”

Xing'er blushed slightly, and her expression suddenly relaxed, and said, "I heard him say that he quarreled with his sixth brother, and his sixth brother said ......" paused for a while, thinking that it was not good to learn again.

Li Xin smiled: "You don't need to mention it, I also know that he can't say anything good in his mouth." As he spoke, he asked, "Then what is the second brother doing these days?" ”

"He's got a job to do. said that he wanted to save money and make plans in the future. Xing'er sat up straight and said to Li Xin: "Ask him what he plans to do, he just doesn't say, but I can hear that he wants to split up and live alone, and he often mutters that you are separated, and life is getting better and better." ”

Li Xin smiled: "It's true. ”

"It's just that his father ......" Xing'er frowned slightly: "Brother Guan has only been separated for two or three months, if Ah Wu is also making trouble to split up, he is not a slippery mouth, if he is stiff......"

Li Xin smiled, "Then you have to give him an idea." However, it is not so easy for Xing'er to get by on face without suffering. You probably also know that their father prefers the youngest son, and when Awen and I split up, we didn't get a single share of the paddy field, all of which was converted into that mountainous area, and I didn't get a single one. said that it was the money to wait until the Chinese New Year to kill a pig and give it to a pig, but I don't know if there is this silver. Every month, we also have to give his father a ~~.cn- update the first ~~ filial piety of 100 dollars. ”

Xing'er frowned suddenly: "So much? ”

"You have to give more." Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "When you come out of the family, you are the master of your own house, you can eat what you want, do what you want, and you will not be preached to your face by people, and your life will be comfortable." ”

Xing'er nodded and said, "When you meet an unreasonable father-in-law and mother-in-law, it is best to separate the family and live alone." ”

"So, you should hurry up and discuss it with the second brother." Li Xin said: "Listen to what you mean, my father-in-law came directly to find the well-off grandfather and grandma, and made it clear that if you want to marry in, the well-off can't take it with you, does that mean?" ”

"Hmm." Apricot bowed: "That's what it means." ”

"He agrees that you enter the door as a compromise, but it means that you should also take a step back and not marry with a well-off person. In that case, it's easy to do. Li Xin said.
