Chapter 19 Resignation

The sun is shining, the green forest is green, and the wind is lightly supplied.

When he returned from the village chief's house, Xu Ci saw from a distance that a carriage was parked at the door of his house. Thinking that his family didn't seem to have it, such a wealthy relative who could afford a carriage, he quickened his pace.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard a woman's laughter coming from the east house.

He coughed twice deliberately, and the room was quiet before the sound of talking sounded again. I saw Xu Xiaomei trotting out, her face flushed, I don't know if it was hot or ashamed.

She saw Xu Ci open her mouth and asked, "Brother, why are you back?" "I seem to be disgusted with Xu Ci.

Xu Ci's face darkened, and he said angrily: "If I don't go home, where will I go?" As he spoke, he knocked on Xu Xiaomei's head, and he raised his chin towards the room and asked, "Who is here?" ”

Xu Xiaomei's big eyes with the same style as Xu Ci turned smartly: "Guess, it's you...... The most feared people. ”

The one who is most afraid? Xu Ci sneered in his heart, the person he was afraid of had not yet been born, nonsense.

However, looking at Xu Xiaomei's expression, Xu Ci's heart suddenly burst into mind, and he remembered someone, "It's you, Aunt Cheng?!" He looked forward to it in his heart, and Xu Xiaomei quickly denied it.

However, Xu Xiaomei didn't, but turned her head and deliberately shouted loudly: "Aunt Cheng, it's my brother who is back!" ”

Resignation: "......"

Actually, he wasn't afraid. This is just simple, as a kind of cowardice of a son-in-law marrying someone else's daughter, Xu Ci cheered himself up in his heart.

Cheng Shui didn't know that he was thinking so much, and when he heard that Xu Ci was returning, he invited him in.

Although his heart turned a thousand times, Xu Ci still did not change his face when he entered the house, he first saluted Cheng Shui, and then looked at Cheng Hui with concern and asked, "Can this monkey be safe today?" ”

Hearing this, the others didn't have anything, Cheng Hui first made a big red face, thinking that this husband was afraid that he was stupid, and saying this in front of everyone made her pampered and arrogant.

Actually, Cheng Hui still thinks too much. No one thinks it's inappropriate to sit in the crowd again, Cheng Shui and the Li family, knowing the hard work of pregnant women, can't wait to see their husband and wife in harmony, the rest of Xu Xiaomei and Liu, one has not yet opened up, and the other ...... Just look at the newly replaced gold hairpins on people's heads, you can know that their husband and wife are more than greasy.

"The child is well-behaved, all right." Cheng Hui whispered: "Mother, I've been here for a while, and my little sister hasn't found you." Although he tried his best to put on the posture of a good wife and mother, the latter small complaint was still in vain.

Cheng Shui and Li glanced at each other and smiled in unison.

Xu Ci is a little helpless, he's a simple stupid daughter-in-law.

But it's okay, Xu Ci turned to Cheng Shui, and still opened his mouth: "I just saw the carriage at the door, and I don't dare to recognize it." Mother, has something happened at home recently? ”

"Oh?" Cheng Shui raised his eyebrows, "Why do you think something happened?" Instead of getting rich or getting some happy event? ”

Xu Ci was a little helpless, he originally wanted to test his mother-in-law's intentions today, but he never wanted to get himself into it, he could only think about it and replied: "I saw some dust and friction on the carriage, it must not be newly bought at home." Although there is some distance between our two villages, there are many relatives and friends in the village, and if something big happens, we should be able to get the news in less than a day. ”

He analyzed and said: "However, looking at the expressions of my mother and sister-in-law, it shouldn't be a bad thing." I guess...... It's a major event that people in the village can't touch, and it's related to my mother. When he said the last sentence, he looked at Cheng Shui fixedly.

Cheng Shui calmly took a sip of water before nodding slowly. Sure enough, he is a character who can be the protagonist, but he can guess that something is unusual just by seeing a carriage.

Others did not know the inside story and were still doubting Xu Ci's inference.

The Li family next to him was taken aback, the mother-in-law did the Li family's caravan master's thing, at present, only the Li family, the village chief's family and his own family know, this brother-in-law guessed it in a few words, and he is worthy of being a person who studied with Wu Fuzi in Zengcheng.

"Guess three points correctly, don't hide it, I came here today, in addition to visiting Huiniang, I have one more thing to ask you." Cheng Shui spoke.

Hearing this, he bowed his hand and said solemnly: "Mother-in-law, please speak, the son-in-law has no choice." He pandered a little.

"You've been in the village for the past few days?"

"Nature."

"And what did you find?"

"What did my mother-in-law say?" Xu Ci was puzzled, and even looked at Mother Li and Xu Xiaomei, both of whom shook their heads in unison.

Cheng Shui prompted: "Don't you think there are too many people in the village? ”

"Oh!" Xu Ci suddenly said: "In the past two days, it seems that there are more displaced people than before. ”

But he still didn't understand, there were many displaced people, but they all fled south and didn't stay.

Seeing that he didn't know the suffering of the world, Cheng Shui shook his head: "These homeless people are empty-handed, and they have to eat when they escape the famine." ”

Xu Ci was also inexperienced for a while, and when he heard Cheng Shui's roll call, he immediately understood: "Did they gather when they heard that there were grain merchants in Shilong Town?" ”

It's really teachable, and it's easy to understand.

Cheng Shui looked up at the window, the sun was setting, she got up and said, "It's not too early, we're going home." ”

When Cheng Hui heard this, her face was reluctant. Mother Li and Xu Xiaomei hurriedly kept it, wanting to find out what to bring with them.

Of course Cheng Shui wouldn't accept it, Liu also put Mother Li in the car is basket of eggs and took it back, and after putting it back in its place, he pretended to be angry and said, "Aunt Li, you're welcome." This chicken is brought to you, just let the eggs be laid for you to eat, don't patronize Hui Niang, I see Xu Yatou's thin bones, you cook two more on weekdays, and make up for you and her. ”

Because Cheng Shui sold grain before, and later became the head of the Li family, the Cheng family's life is naturally much better than the Xu family.

Standing on the side of the carriage, Cheng Shui looked at Xu Ci, and he was still thinking about what his mother-in-law said about the homeless people at the end.

"Excuse me." Cheng Shui said solemnly.

"Yes, mother." Xu resigned and returned to God.

"Before I finished speaking, I asked you to take good care of Huiniang, and don't let her be hurt in the slightest."

"Mother, where is this, I should love my mother and take care of her." Xu Ci hurriedly said.

He's not having a good time these days. Since falling out with the uncle's family, the village has been gossiping, and the family is full of weak women, he doesn't dare to stay away, so Huiniang is about to give birth, he wants to go to Zengcheng to say goodbye to his master first, and then come back to settle the family.

In this difficult era of studying, it is understandable for him to think like this, but he doesn't know that this will separate heaven and man forever.

However, Cheng Shui knows.

She said: "From today onwards, you have to follow Hui Niang and never leave. ”

Cheng Shui looked at Xu Ci's eyes fixedly, his eyes were serious, and there was no room for him to refuse.

"Yes, mother." Xu couldn't resign, so he could only answer.

Seeing that he agreed, Cheng Shui looked away.

She looked to the side, Li Mu and Liu, who you pushed me, and whispered: "In your heart, which is more important, future, reputation?" Does family matter? ”
