Chapter 209: Farce
Cow Horn Village.
The village was quiet, and there was no one in sight.
At noon, everyone went down to the field.
Only occasionally can I hear a hen crowing.
Xia Youzhi and the others got off the ox cart and saw Grandma Liu selling pork at the head of the village.
In front of the pork stall, there was also a thin uncle standing with his back to them.
Xia Youzhi was a little excited in her heart, and she ran forward quickly.
"Grandma Liu." She shouted as she trotted.
Grandma Liu has some ears behind her ears.
She's giving people banana leaves wrapped in fat!
Faintly hearing someone calling for herself, she raised her somewhat cloudy eyes.
Glanced ahead.
The young girl?
At this moment, Xia Youzhi was squinting his eyes and smiling.
"Hey, girl."
Grandma Liu came back to her senses, was so excited that she threw down the meat and walked out of the pork stall.
"Oh, Aunt Liu, you see that this girl is back, and the meat is no longer sold?"
Zhang Erbald, who was standing in front of the stall, looked back and saw this scene, and smiled.
"Uncle Zhang."
Xia You looked at Zhang Erbald with a smile and said hello.
Zhang Erbald nodded.
"Girl, when did you come back?" Grandma Liu asked excitedly.
The dry hands held Xia Youzhi's hands tightly.
Since Xia Laosan's family moved to the town.
I came back less.
She misses these kids a lot.
"I'll be back at noon today." Xia Youzhi replied with a smile.
Her affection for Grandma Liu is deeper than that of Grandma Xia.
"Girl, didn't you go to school in the city? Why are you still free? Zhang Erbald said curiously.
The Xia family is now famous for lo-mei.
Always go to the villages to deliver goods, and now the people in the villages near this Mashan Town know the lo-mei of the Xia family.
It should have made a lot of money.
And I heard that this girl made it.
Xia Youzhi glanced at Zhang Er's bald man, his eyes were full of gossip.
Xia Youzhi smiled, "I'm homesick, come back and have a look." ”
Her family is making money.
Every move, the people in the village are watching.
"It's not a weekend, it's not a holiday, why are you back?" Zhang Erbald continued to ask.
A few days ago, Xia Guomin returned to the village and called someone who didn't know what to do at his house.
The clanging sound, everyone is curious.
Now, the girl is back.
There must be something going on.
"What are you doing with so much inquiry?"
Grandma Liu turned her head and glared at Zhang Erbald with a smile.
relieved Xia Youzhi.
At this time, Gu Tingshen and Xia's father and Xia's mother just walked up.
Xia's father and Xia's mother also heard Zhang Er's bald son's words.
They glanced at each other.
Remembered the rumors in the village.
Alas.
"Oops, the big boss is back? It's a big bag. ”
Zhang Erbald glanced at the big bag in Father Xia's hand and said with a smile.
"Where is the boss, her second uncle, don't talk nonsense. This is all Zhang Zheng's filial piety, and the nursery brought it to his grandmother. ”
Xia's mother explained with a smile, and then took out a handful of candy from the plastic bag, "Give it to the child." ”
"Oh, what's so embarrassing?"
Zhang Erbald smiled, but took it very consciously.
Seeing this, Xia Youzhi's eyes moved.
It seems that after Huang Lianzhi's spread, there are many people in the village who are jealous of their family.
Her mother can only go and gag other people's mouths.
"Let's go back quickly, it's tiring to come back from the city."
Grandma Liu smiled and relieved the siege, her hand still holding Xia Youzhi tightly, "Grandma will get you something delicious in a while." ”
Xia Youzhi looked at Grandma Liu with a light smile, "Okay." ”
Gu Tingshen on the side did not speak.
His eyes were slightly cold.
The situation of the Xia family is also normal in the village.
It's all about high and low.
But it's really "high", and it's just a superficial support, and I don't know how to step on it behind my back?
Zhang Erbald got the benefit, so he smiled and walked away with the meat.
This candy is expensive when you look at it.
None of them were sold in town.
He went home happy.
When I got home, I saw that the gate of Xia Guozhong's courtyard on the opposite side was open.
The grandmother of the Xia family was enjoying the shade under the eaves in front of the courtyard.
This "autumn tiger" is still fierce.
The weather is still very hot and dry during the day.
He glanced to the side of the courtyard again.
Huang Lianzhi was pointing at Xia Lanhua and scolding.
Zhang Erbald pursed his lips and shook his head.
I just wanted to enter the door, but I retreated again.
He smiled and walked into the opposite yard.
"Oh, auntie, I've got good news for you." He laughed out loud.
Huang Lianzhi, who was pointing at Xia Lanhua and scolding, heard this and glanced at Zhang Er's bald man.
"What's the good news about this?"
As she spoke, her eyes glanced at the piece of meat in Zhang Erbald's hand, and said disdainfully, "Hehe, is it possible, you brought meat to my family?" ”
Zhang Er's bald man choked.
This Huang Lianzhi speaks, but it is ugly.
He ignored Huang Lianzhi and looked at the Xia family's grandmother, "Uncle, your girl is back." ”
"Who?"
Grandma Xia's wrinkled face was full of questions.
"Young, Xia Laosan's daughter." Zhang Erbald said with a smile.
"Who are you talking about? Xia Youzhi? Huang Lianzhi was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked.
"yes." Zhang Er's bald man had mockery hidden in his eyes.
The girl who specializes in cleaning up Coptis branches.
When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment.
"You have brought a lot of things, big bags and small bags, you are blessed."
Zhang Erbald turned his head again and said to the Xia family's grandmother with a smile.
Then he glanced at the stunned Huang Lianzhi, and a hint of schadenfreude flashed in his eyes.
Before everyone could react, he left with a smile.
Xia Youzhi helped Grandma Liu clean up the pork stall and went home.
At the fork in the road, Grandma Liu went home first.
said that he was going back to make something delicious and give it to Xia Youzhi.
The group went home first.
Before he reached Xia Guozhong's house, he heard scolding from a distance.
"Every day, I will stay at home, I will eat and wait for death, it is useless.
You are a young learner, you can help your family make money, and you can go to the city to study.
Tell me what you can do with your pig head? ”
Huang Lianzhi's voice rang out in the courtyard.
Then there was a slapping sound.
There was also a faint cry.
Xia Youzhi's footsteps paused.
This Huang Lianzhi has started to act?
Xia Youzhi glanced at Xia's mother.
I saw a trace of unbearability flashing in Xia Mu's eyes.
"Why is this Coptis branch hitting an orchid again?"
A trace of annoyance appeared on Xia Mu's face.
Feelings: Didn't she give birth to this orchid?
"Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry all day long, no wonder your third aunt won't let you go to work.
Tell me about you, you can't do anything all day, what do you want to do? Yes? I can't read books well.
No wonder now your third aunt would rather have outsiders work than you. ”
Huang Lianzhi's curses sounded in the courtyard again.
Several people stopped.
Xia Youzhi is clear.
Feelings are waiting here.
She glanced at her parents next to her.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Xia Mu's face.
Even Father Xia's face darkened.
scolded people like this, and the whole village thought that he Xia Laosan had lost his conscience.
"Mom and Dad, don't bother with it, let's go home first."
Xia Youzhi glanced at the courtyard gate and said lightly.
"But your grandmother is still inside." Xia Mu was a little embarrassed.
If this passes, if you don't go to see the old man first, you won't be poked in the back?
"It's okay, let's go back first." Xia Youzhi insisted lightly.
This is a good calculation of Coptis chinensis.
She let her fall through.
Hearing this, Xia's father and Xia's mother had no choice but to nod and sigh.
Xia Youzhi turned his head again and looked at Gu Tingshen, who looked indifferent.
Under the sun, that swarthy face was even more serious.
Seeing Xia Youzhi looking at him, he hurriedly looked back.
A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"You can go home too." Xia Youzhi glanced at him and emphatically said, "Go back to your own home." ”
Gu Tingshen's smile froze.
All right.
This little one has no conscience.
However, in the matter of the Xia family, it is really not appropriate for him to participate now.
The coptis branches in the house scolded Xia Lanhua, and their eyes glanced at the gate of the yard.
Why hasn't it arrived yet?
Didn't Zhang Erbald just say that he met at the entrance of the village?
Why haven't you gotten there yet?
Just when Huang Lianzhi was wondering, Gu Tingshen walked by the door.
He glanced inside.
His eyes were cold, and he still hid unknown emotions.
Huang Lianzhi was frightened.
Even the cursing stopped.
Until Gu Tingshen walked over, she still had palpitations.
When Xia Youzhi walked over with Xia's father and Xia's mother, she didn't react.
Just...... Walking over, is that girl?
And the third and third daughter-in-law?
Huang Lianzhi came back to his senses and hurriedly ran to the gate.
She poked her head out.
I saw that Xia Youzhi had already walked a short distance with Xia's father and Xia's mother.
Father Xia also greeted the others cordially.
Huang Lianzhi's thin and pointed face appeared for a moment.
"Yo, this kid and his third uncle are back? Why don't you come in and see your parents? ”
Huang Lianzhi's yin and yang strange voice sounded behind him.
Xia's father and Xia's mother were stunned, and their faces were a little ugly.
Several people turned their heads, only to see Huang Lianzhi holding his head high, looking a little disdainful.
Xia Mu smiled a little embarrassedly, "Child, auntie, how do you say this, I don't want to put things away first." ”
Xia Youzhi glanced at Huang Lianzhi lightly.
This man is really a dog who can't change his eating.
Remember to eat but not to play.
"Put things away first? These parents are here, where else do you put this thing if you don't put it here? Huang Lianzhi scoffed.
When the villagers saw it, they laughed and walked away.
Father Xia endured his anger beside him.
But it's not good to quarrel with women.
Xia Mu's face was a little ugly.
As soon as he wanted to speak, he saw Xia Lanhua helping the Xia family's grandmother to come out.
"San'er is back?" The Xia family's grandmother squinted her eyes and looked at Xia Youzhi's side, "Youzhi is also back?" ”
Xia Youzhi smiled, "Well, grandma, we're back." ”
"What are you doing when this man comes back? I don't even look at you when I pass by. Huang Lianzhi looked at the old couple, and the yin and yang strange qi said.
On the way, I passed a few more villagers.
Hearing this, they couldn't help but glance at Xia Youzhi and them a few times.
"Mom, don't talk nonsense." Xia Lanhua had a bitter face and shook the sleeves of Huang Lianzhi, "She also just came back, just go home and put things." ”
Huang Lianzhi pushed Xia Lanhua fiercely with his eyes, and Xia Lanhua staggered twice.
"You eat things inside and out, you pour out your heart and lungs to others, do you see that people have jobs, and ask you to go?
The money spent in vain is given to outsiders, where do you still treat you as a niece. ”
Huang Lianzhi pointed to Xia Lanhua's head and scolded again.
