Chapter Seventy-Nine: Pretending to be stupid

In the Xue family's old house, the smoke rose from the cooking, and the daughters-in-law were busy cooking.

It didn't take long for three pots of vegetables, two pots of flour cakes, and a large pot of gruel on the table.

A family of more than a dozen people gathered around two tables, and everyone was silent, looking very quiet.

Dumb sit still, it's time for this to come to an end today.

The eldest daughter-in-law coughed lightly, breaking the silence, and Dumb frowned, knowing that it was coming.

The eldest daughter-in-law smiled and said to Dumb, "Dumb, how have you practiced with the Lingshi in the mountains in the past eight years?"

Dumb smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Dumb has gained a lot from practicing in the mountains over the years, and recently the master said that I am difficult to be lean in the mountains, and Dumb Fang went down the mountain to prepare for the immortal examination." ”

The eldest daughter-in-law sneered, "Dumb, lying is not a good boy, you have to tell the truth to the eldest mother, have you participated in the immortal examination every year for the past eight years, but you have not passed the exam." ”

"Your mother is afraid of losing face, so she let you tell lies and deceive people, saying that she has been practicing in the mountains for eight years, isn't it? ”

Dumb narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile, "Dumb is really good at laughing, if Dumb didn't know that you were my aunt and knew that you were joking with me, I thought you were going to slander me again?"

"Master Lu told me, there are gods in the three feet of the head, and the gods are watching every move of people, if anyone has a bad heart to do bad things, the gods will remember, and when the time comes, the gods will punish them, Auntie, Dumb told you, those who were killed by lightning are people who do bad things. ”

The eldest daughter-in-law's face changed when she heard this, she heard Xiao Tao say all kinds of miracles of Lu Shi, and they all thought in their hearts that Lu Shi was a real immortal, and she naturally believed Lu Shi's words, but who knew if that was what Lu Shi said, but the eldest daughter-in-law also felt that it would rather be believed than not.

The eldest daughter-in-law snorted coldly, "No matter what, eight years have passed now, and I haven't even been admitted to the exam for eight years, and I won't have much success in the future." ”

"Now it's going to be an immortal exam again, for the sake of the Xue family, this time we must go all out, the spirit stones in the family should be concentrated to cultivate hopeful people, mother, do you say that your daughter-in-law is reasonable. ”

Zhao nodded, "Well, the old man is very reasonable, the immortal examination is a big deal for the Xue family, especially this year, it is a big exam that only comes once in three years, we must go all out to give the spirit stone to those who hope to pass the exam, and the Xue family may be able to produce a feather scholar, or even a layman." ”

Mother Xue sat there An Rushan, watching the two of them act, but she didn't answer.

The business has been in business for eight years, and there have been ups and downs in eight years, no one has seen it, nothing has been experienced, how can the small abacus of the Zhao family and the eldest daughter-in-law escape her eyes.

Seeing that Mother Xue was silent, Zhao suddenly had a feeling of strength and nowhere to go, and then looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and coughed lightly.

The eldest daughter-in-law nodded, and turned to Xue's mother, "Second family, do you think what my mother said is right?"

Mother Xue didn't say anything when she heard this, as if she hadn't heard it, and the eldest daughter-in-law raised her voice, "The second one, I'm talking to you." ”

Mother Xue looked at the eldest daughter-in-law with a blank look and said, "Ah, sister-in-law, what did you just say?"

"Eh, these years have been greedy for darkness, and I have fallen into a deaf problem, I went to see the doctor, and the doctor said that he wanted to treat twenty low-grade spirit stones, but sister-in-law, you also know, how can I have spirit stones, I can only drag it like this, by the way, sister-in-law, what did you just say, I didn't hear clearly?"

Xue Xiaoying, who was on the side, pulled the corner of Dumb's clothes and whispered, "Brother, yesterday we whispered clearly, and the mother heard it clearly and taught us two a lesson, why are you deaf today?"

Dumb said in a low voice, "Don't speak, just look at it." ”

"Oh. Xue Xiaoying pouted and watched from the side.

The eldest daughter-in-law rolled her eyes and said in her heart, "Deaf, who are you fooling, even if you are really deaf, you should still have to take the spirit stone." ”

The eldest daughter-in-law said loudly, "The second one, I said, what my mother said just now is right?"

Mother Xue looked at the eldest daughter-in-law a little blankly when she heard this, "Oh, sister-in-law, just now you said that your mother spoke, what did your mother say?"

The eldest daughter-in-law was very angry when she heard this, and shouted, "My mother just said that the spirit stones in the family should be gathered together to cultivate immortals for those who are most likely to be admitted to the Yushi, let me ask you, do you agree with my mother's meaning." ”

Xue Mu pulled her ears and said loudly, "What did you say?"

"Eh, this ear is really not working, this will not be able to hear again, sister-in-law, I didn't hear it clearly just now, you say it again. ”

The eldest daughter-in-law said angrily, "The second one's family, you just pretend, it's fine in the morning, but now you can't hear it, what about the ghost?"

"What? what are you talking about, old man?" Xue Mu was acting, and she smiled secretly in her heart, "Even if you know what I can do if I pretend, I just don't accept this stubble, I see what you do with me?"

"If you want me to come out of the spirit stone, don't even think about it. ”

"This trick is really easy to use, no wonder that dumb stinky boy likes to pretend to be stupid. ”

The eldest daughter-in-law was very angry, she expected that Mother Xue might quarrel with her, but she didn't expect Mother Xue to answer.

However, as soon as she rolled her eyes, her gaze stopped on Xue's father's body, and when Xue's mother saw this, she secretly screamed that it was not good.

I only heard the eldest daughter-in-law smile at Father Xue, "Second brother, my mother said that I would concentrate spirit stones to support hopeful people, what do you think my mother said?"

Father Xue is not stupid, how can he not know what the eldest daughter-in-law means, that is, to let his family produce spirit stones, he also knows that the child and his mother don't want to give it, but he is a member of the Xue family after all, and the family's income has been good in recent years, even if he takes out a little spirit stone, it is nothing.

At that moment, Father Xue was about to speak, and Mother Xue on the side had already preemptively said, "Sister-in-law, in the past eight years, my family has handed over fifteen lower-grade spirit stones every month, and now it is at least more than 1,500 lower-grade spirit stones, aren't these spirit stones enough for the third child and Xiao Tao to participate in the immortal examination?"

"Moreover, I have signed a contract with my mother eight years ago, and the Xue family can no longer ask us for spirit stones for any reason or way. ”

The eldest daughter-in-law sneered when she heard this, "Second son, aren't you deaf in your ears?

At this time, Dumb didn't know when he walked behind Xue Mu, rubbed the roots of Xue Mu's ears, and said with a slight smile, "Mother, are your ears better?"

Mother Xue was slightly stunned when she heard this, her face was happy, and she secretly said in her heart, my son is so smart and understanding.

Xue Mu smiled and said, "Mother is much better, didn't your mother hear what your mother said just now?"

After speaking, Mother Xue looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "It's naturally good to have my son massage for me." ”

"Old man, I will understand that I will leave it here, who do you want to vigorously spend spirit stones to support the immortal examination, that is your business, in the future, which of you will become a feather warrior and become a layman, and our family will not be cheap, this time I will not come out with a spirit stone." ”
