Chapter 37 I know in my heart
Chen Xiaonian told the Wang family word for word about today's incident in the town, and the Wang family was annoyed: "His family is simply too deceitful!" ”
"The Wang family just now scared the villagers like that, how will Erlang live in the village in the future? How will our family live in the future? Mother, these words, you will say when you meet people in a while, we can't eat this dumb loss. ”
Wang nodded, "I understand." ”
She dared to look at Erlang at this moment, held it for a long time, and was about to speak, but Erlang shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.
Wang opened his mouth, and when the words came to his mouth, he turned a corner, and it was just a word of worry.
"My eyelids keep jumping, I'm afraid something will happen."
Chen Xiaonian helped Wang in, and persuaded him. Erlang stood at the door, looking at the Fang mother and son who had already walked out of the village, and clenched his fists.
After entering the house, Chen Xiaonian poured the spiritual spring water into the teapot and poured a cup for the Wang family first, saying that it was a shock.
poured another cup for Erlang, saying that it was to dispel bad luck.
The two of them drank the glass of water, and their heavy hearts suddenly brightened, and even the whole person felt much more energetic.
Wang, who was accustomed to sighing in the past, was embarrassed now, and just stood up and said that he wanted to make them something to eat, and heard Chen Xiaonian exclaim, which instantly lifted Wang's heart.
"Suffered!"
Wang became anxious, "I knew that something must have happened!" ”
Chen Xiaonian smiled dumbly, "It's a carriage, I forgot to borrow the carriage that I talked to Shopkeeper Liu yesterday." ”
Erlang turned around and walked out, Chen Xiaonian called him out, "What are you going to do?" ”
He took her hand and wrote a few words in the palm of his hand.
Chen Xiaonian shook his head, "Forget it, I won't go to the county tomorrow, let's go to the town." Just remember it when you come back tomorrow. ”
That's it, she thought of the little young master of the Chen family again.
"Mother, are you ready for the puppet?"
After Wang nodded, he took out the puppet he had made and showed it to her.
Chen Xiaonian picked the two best-looking ones from them, "Give this to me, I'll send someone tomorrow." ”
After eating something casually, Chen Xiaonian shouted Erlang to go up the mountain again. Wang wanted to go with him, but the needlework at hand was not done yet, so he had to go to the field to have a look, so he stayed at home.
The two went up the mountain, and Chen Xiaonian pointed to the mountain fruit forest in the distance, "If you can hunt pheasants again, Ming'er will send one to Chen's family." Hares are also made, and children love these. The Chen family helped us three times and twice, and we have to repay this kindness. I'll go over there to pick fruit, and when you come back, just go and look for me." ”
Jiro didn't say anything, just walked forward with his head down.
"This way!"
The direction in which Erlang went was the road to the mountain fruit forest. And the place where he hunted in the past was obviously the direction that Chen Xiaonian was pointing to.
If he didn't hear it, Chen Xiaonian could only catch up.
She patted him on the shoulder, trying to remind him again, but Erlang half-crouched down and motioned for her to come up.
Chen Xiaonian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled.
She climbed onto Jiro's back and leaned on his broad, thick shoulders.
His steps were really steady, the mountain road was rugged, and every step he took was like stepping on flat ground.
Chen Xiaonian felt that even if the sky fell now, Erlang would be able to support her.
"When I ran out, did you think I left you behind?"
Jiro's footsteps paused slightly, and after a few moments, he continued to walk forward.
Chen Xiaonian tightened his arms around his shoulders and didn't continue.
Although she didn't say anything further, Jiro understood everything in her heart.
When he saw Mrs. Chen in the yamen, Erlang already understood everything.
Standing in front of the mountain fruit forest, Erlang was stunned for a moment.
Last time, I was in a hurry to find my little daughter-in-law, but I didn't take a closer look at the forest in front of me, but now looking at the front of me, Erlang feels a little incredible.
He often came to hunt on this mountain, not to mention that he had traveled everywhere, but he dared to say that he had seen almost the whole mountain in its entirety.
The wild mountain fruits he picked for Chen Xiaonian that day were only picked near the hunt, two next to each other, the fruits were sparse, and ten fingers could be counted, but they looked good, so he picked two.
But when did this mountain fruit forest emerge in front of you?
"What are you doing? It's getting late today, so finish it early and go back early. ”
While speaking, Chen Xiaonian had already picked up the fruits, and told him which fruits tasted good and which fruits could be raised for another two days.
The two picked a whole basket of fruits, Chen Xiaonian cleaned the fruits with the mountain spring water, and Erlang also hunted two hares back.
The two went down the mountain, and on the way they met the Wang family pulling the third aunt to talk about the matter, and when they got closer, they learned that the Fang family took Chen Xiangwen to the patriarch, and they had to ask the Wang family to pay four taels of silver to forget the matter, saying that the yamen in the town didn't care about the matter, so they had to make trouble to the county and the state and county!
Where has the Wang family seen this posture, at this moment, he is borrowing money from the third aunt.
"Mother! How dare you borrow money! The more than 100 taels of silver haven't been repaid yet, and I can still afford one interest a day! ”
Wang didn't expect her to say this, and froze in place, not knowing where to hide an old face.
Seeing that the Wang family was silent, he would only lower his head, and he looked like he was bullying again.
Chen Xiaoxiao was very angry, and left this sentence and ran away.
Wang froze in place, and didn't dare to speak for a long time.
Only the third aunt shouted Erlang, "What are you doing in a daze, go and chase people back!" ”
Erlang handed the back basket behind him to Wang, turned around and chased after him.
Chen Xiaonian still had to kick the door of Chen Xiangwen's house, she was very angry at this time, and Erlang couldn't make a sound, so he could only pick her up and walk in another direction.
"You put me down!"
"Did you hear that?"
"Four taels of silver! The two taels of silver that his family deceived the shopkeeper Liu haven't come back yet! It's four taels when you open your mouth, why don't you grab it! ”
"You should have directly hammered Chen Xiangwen's dog head just now!"
Such a novel way of scolding amused Erlang.
In the past, let alone hammering a dog's head, his one move was as easy as killing an ant.
It wasn't until Erlang put her down that Chen Xiaonian recognized that this was the door of the patriarch's house.
She immediately understood Jiro's intentions.
"It's Xiao Nian, right? Come on in. ”
Before they could knock on the door, the voice of the patriarch came from inside, as if they had been waiting for them for a long time.
Chen Xiaonian pushed the door in, and really saw the patriarch waiting in the courtyard.
She got straight to the point, "Chen Xiangwen's nose was broken by me, but I won't pay for the silver!" ”
The patriarch's face was solemn, "But it's a fact that your Erlang injured him." ”
"Why didn't you say that Chen Xiangwen was framed for rumors? If those words get out, not only Erlang, but my mother and I, as well as the entire Heshan Village, will suffer! ”
