Chapter 20 Innocence is worth only one tael of silver
On the Chu family's side, the Bai family got up early in the morning, but they didn't expect the Chen family to get up too, so the two in-laws worked together to make a breakfast.
Xu Wan completely let the aroma wafting from the kitchen lure the greedy insects to wake up.
She sat up from the bed and sneezed three times in a row. Rubbing his upturned nose uncomfortably, Xu Wan muttered, "Which dog thief scolded me early in the morning..."
Chu Yuan, who pushed the door in, opened his eyelids to look at her.
"It's three poles in the sun, isn't it okay to let the elders wait for you?"
These words were like a basin of cold water poured from head to foot, Xu Wan hugged his head and went crazy, it was broken.
The sleepy-eyed eyes exuded a thick resentment, and silence was better than sound here.
Damn, this Chu Yuan is clearly here to see the excitement.
Xu Wan didn't care about it, jumped on the spot twice, and rushed out of the house in one go, she wanted to turn the tide.
In the middle room, the Xu family and the Bai family sat face to face, talking and laughing.
was unmoved by Xu Wan's reckless appearance.
Xu Wan raised his white jade palm uncomfortably and shook his palm at several people.
"Daddy, Auntie, it's early-"
Inevitably, the scene was embarrassing, Xu Wan was stupid, "Hehehe... Hehehe...", laughed.
Chu Yuan's hind feet arrived, and without saying a word, he grabbed her thin wrist, picked her up lightly, and placed her next to him to sit down.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, Auntie, we're late."
Xu Zhong and his wife saw at a glance that the little couple was late, and it must be their daughter who couldn't get out of bed, so they went over.
"Hey, here, let's go to the field."
Bai Shi looked at the two of them with a light smile, and he didn't mean to blame them.
Gently urged them: "Hurry up and move the chopsticks, I will have to work hard for my father-in-law and mother-in-law for a while." I'm really sorry, my body can't do it, and going will only help. β
Chen is the one who entered the kitchen with Bai, and this morning he saw her weak appearance of gasping for breath with his own eyes, and understood that if Bai's body could support it, he would definitely follow.
Why should a woman be embarrassed by a woman, not to mention that the Bai family is widowed.
Chen comforted her empathetically, "It doesn't matter, these meals are all made by my mother, and we can be regarded as eating and drinking for nothing." β
Xu Wan took a sip of multigrain porridge and echoed absentmindedly, "Yes, yes, my mother is right, A-Niang's craftsmanship is excellent!" β
Even if he was not the original owner, looking at the lost look of the thin "mother", Chu Yuan was also moved.
Before leaving home, the Xu family walked in front, and Chu Yuan stayed at the end to explain to the Bai family.
"Auntie, you lock the door, and my son will come back after collecting the grain."
For the sake of the heart of the Kuan Bai clan.
Bai smiled faintly, nodded and sent their figures away.

The largest family in the village is surnamed Li, which is the family of the village chief Li. The ancestors of the Li family have a bit of family background, and there are ten rooms in the courtyard of the Li family, where three generations of the Li family live.
After having breakfast in the morning, Village Chief Li took his eldest son to the village to ask how much grain each household had received, copied it into a booklet, and calculated the taxes to be paid to the county in the future.
Village Chief Li has two sons, the eldest son is honest and sincere, and Village Chief Li intends to train him to be the successor of the village chief. As for the youngest son, he is a cunning appearance, if it weren't for the pressure of Village Chief Li, there would definitely be no less trouble over the years.
No, in Li Erming's house, the two husbands and wives hid in the house and talked secretly.
Erming's daughter-in-law lowered her voice and said: "I think that Master Zhang is very good, he has a rich family, let's marry my daughter, and my daughter can also help the family in the future." β
Master Zhang is a nearby landlord, and this marriage is still born in Li Erming's mind, but only the two husbands and wives secretly pondered and did not dare to spread it in front of Village Chief Li.
Li Erming's eyes flashed, "Let's find an opportunity to talk to Master Zhang about the dowry in private, we must not suffer losses, the Zhang family is a landlord and is not bad for money, so I can't talk about it if I don't have a lot." β
Erming's daughter-in-law is also a thief, she saw Qian Yan and said: "Yes, yes, we have silver in our hands, and when the eldest brother becomes the village chief in the future, the people in the village will not dare to look down on us." β
mentioned that his father was going to pass on the position of village chief to his eldest brother, Li Erming was not angry in his heart, because the eldest brother was stupid, and he was not as shrewd and capable as he was.
Li Erming complained: "Our father is eccentric, if we don't think about ourselves, we can't continue to live a hard life." β
Village Chief Li controls the Li family, and the two sons are all counted, Li Erming is proficient in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and that bit of silver is not enough to spend.
Erming's daughter-in-law is only her husband, and she echoed: "You are right, our father will give the big house any benefits, and forget about our second room." I wonder if your dad picked you up outside. β
At this time, a touch of obscurity flashed in Li Erming's eyes, and he said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I'll go to find Master Zhang in two days." β

Chu Xing was beaten for most of the night, and Niu Chunhua waved the rattan ruthlessly.
In the second half of the night, she couldn't bear it anymore, and if she continued to fight, she would even lose her life. finally recruited Xu Zheng, as well as the entanglement between Xu Zheng and Xu Wan, as well as Xu Zheng's resentment of Xu Wan. Of course, Chu Xing kept an eye on Xu Zheng's plan and didn't say it.
She has to keep it and ask her sweetheart for credit after it is done.
Niu Chunhua knows Xu Zheng's family in Xujia Village, and the houses that live in that family are newer than others, who is not tempted to hook up with the Xu family.
Chu Xing's beating was dismissed, and in the second half of the night, Niu Chunhua and Chu Lao Er pondered with each other, and definitely asked Chu Lao Er to come to talk to the Xu family.
When Chu Lao Er arrived at Xujia Village, he was just in time for the Xu family to gather around the table for lunch, and he swaggered in.
Thinking that he would be the future in-laws of the Xu family in the future, he was very excited.
Chu Lao Er smiled and said, "Yo, the eldest brother and sister-in-law are eating lunch?" β
Xu Zheng hadn't seen Chu Lao Er, thinking that this person was here to talk to his father and mother, so he buried his head in eating and ignored it.
Father Xu raised his head and saw that it was a face, he didn't know this person, and asked, "Who are you?" β
Chu Lao Er sat down unceremoniously and said, "Big brother doesn't even know about me?" I'm Chu Lao Er from Jiuqu Village next door. β
Xu's father was wondering what kind of character the second child of the Chu family was, but Xu Zheng was frozen in an instant, holding the bowl stiffly.
The Chu family? Just yesterday with Chu Xing in the grove like this, the Chu family came to the door...... It is impossible to say that there is no doubt.
Xu Zheng was frightened while figuring out the reason why the other party came to the door. He has hooked up with women before, and everything is done secretly behind his back, and his family doesn't know about it, if it gets into trouble...... He was afraid and weak-hearted, and he also had a disgust for Chu Xing, who was silent.
Chu Xing looks average, it is appropriate to play a dozen tooth sacrifices, and he is unwilling to let Xu Zheng marry Chu Xing.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Lao Er said casually: "Big brother, you don't have to figure out who I am, you just need to know that your son has ruined my daughter's innocence." β
After Chu Lao Er finished speaking, his eyes paused and swirled on the two sons of the Xu family, and he didn't figure out which one was with Chu Xing for the time being.
Hearing this, Xu's father was shocked, and he scolded the other party angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, my son won't do such a thing." β
The Xu family has a family background, so they naturally have a good face, and Xu's father can't see that the reputation of the family is ruined.
Chu Lao Er shook his legs indifferently, and his eyes instantly became sharp, "Your son Xu Zheng dares to do something ugly, don't you dare to admit it?" Wellβsince you don't recognize it, I'll go outside and tell everyone about it..."
Seeing that Chu Lao Er was about to get up, Xu's mother pushed Xu's father, and Xu's father quickly grabbed the person.
"Wait!"
This time, Father Xu looked sharply at Xu Zheng, whose head was about to hang down to the bottom of the table, and asked angrily, "Xu Zheng, did you say you did it?" β
When the mother didn't know where she gave birth, Xu Zheng's virtue, Xu's mother suddenly burst into tears when she saw it.
She cried out in a trembling voice, "Son... What a stupid thing you are doing! β
Father Xu suppressed his anger, thinking about suppressing Chu Lao Er first, if he was allowed to go out, how could the Xu family still have face in the village.
Over there, Xu Zheng saw that the matter was revealed, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore, so he whispered, "Dad, she seduced me!" β
These words became the element for Xu's father to grasp Chu Laoer, Xu's father stared at Chu Laoer meaninglessly and said: "You also heard, it was your daughter who seduced my son, my son was originally an honest child, and your daughter was almost ruined!" Our Xu family didn't ask you for compensation, even if you dare to come to the door to threaten. Okay, you go out and make trouble, when the time comes, everyone will only say that your daughter is not ashamed, and my son will not marry a wife two years later. β
Chu Lao Er didn't calculate that the other party put the responsibility on Chu Xing, he was making a fuss about publicizing it before, but he was just testing the meaning of the Xu family.
And he was right, a woman is worthless if she is not innocent, and she will be scolded as a slut. In the end, his father won't be able to get anything.
Chu Lao Er immediately changed his face, and said flatteringly: "Don't, big brother, if you look at this, he will also take my daughter's innocence, and he will always have to compensate for some silver, right?" β
Seeing that the matter had been reversed, Father Xu replied quietly: "Yes, give you a tael of silver, and this matter will be revealed." β
Chu Lao Er insidiously calculated other people's lives, but he didn't think that Chu Xing's innocence was only worth one or two silver...
