Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 589 It's better to be a girl (three more)

Zhou Xia smiled shyly, and glanced at Luo Fengtang opposite.

Seeing that Luo Fengtang kept his head buried in his food, he didn't make a sound or even look at her.

Zhou Xia hooked her lips and reached out to pick up a boiled egg.

He gently knocked on the edge of the table to break the shell, and then, with his slender fingers, he peeled it off neatly.

After a while, the eggs were peeled clean and smooth.

In front of all the elders, Zhou Xia put the egg into Luo Fengtang's bowl.

"Cousin, don't bother eating pancakes, but also eat an egg to nourish your body."

Zhou Xia looked at Luo Fengtang tenderly, with sincere concern written on her small face.

Seeing this, Luo Daye hurriedly said: "Oh, my Xia'er is really sensible and virtuous, so considerate."

Blacksmith Luo also had a look of relief.

As the eldest brother of the old Luo family, what he wants to see the most is that these juniors are united and loving, and brothers and sisters respect each other.

However, Luo Fengtang, the person involved, seemed indifferent to Zhou Xia's kind behavior.

He only paused for a moment when he took the chopsticks, without looking at Zhou Xia, he continued to shovel the gruel into his mouth.

Luo Daye curled her lips and snorted, with an unhappy expression on her face.

Zhou used his eyes to stop Luo Daye.

Blacksmith Luo was a little embarrassed, so he had no choice but to reprimand Luo Fengtang.

"Tang Yazi, your sister peeled eggs for you with good intentions, so you have to thank him anyway?" Luo Tiejiang said.

Luo Fengtang, who had always been obedient to Blacksmith Luo, made a stuffed gourd this time.

Blacksmith Luo was even more embarrassed and a little annoyed.

Glancing at Luo Daye, who had a displeased face, Blacksmith Luo planned to give Luo Fengtang a few more words.

She was persuaded by Zhou Xia.

"Uncle, don't talk about my cousin like that, my cousin has such a cold face and a warm heart."

"Besides, I'm not an outsider, so why would I care about this with my cousin!"

Zhou Xia persuaded, and glanced at Luo Fengtang, her gentleness was like water.

He didn't thank her, and she wasn't annoyed at all.

As long as he didn't send back the eggs she peeled, she had taken the first step to success.

With this step, there is a second step, a third step...

"The porridge is going to be cold, uncle, let's eat it quickly, Xia'er will also peel one for uncle..."

As Zhou Xia said, she really picked up another egg, peeled it off and put it into Blacksmith Luo's bowl.

Blacksmith Luo looked at Zhou Xia, feeling relieved.

"It's better to be a girl, a caring little padded jacket!" He sighed and took a bite of the egg.

After eating an egg, Blacksmith Luo grabbed the flagon beside him.

"Da'e, Zhou Tong, thank you for coming back to burn incense and drench the grave."

"Brother doesn't have a woman at home, the hospitality is not comprehensive, and Da'e has to cook..."

"Come, come, brother, I will offer you another cup and see you off. In the future, when the farming is slack, I will often come back and walk with a pair of children..."

As Blacksmith Luo spoke, he raised the wine cup to Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong also quickly put down the chopsticks in his hand and picked up the wine cup.

The two touched again.

On the side, Luo Daye waved to Blacksmith Luo vaguely while pushing peanuts or something into his mouth.

"Brother, I forgot to tell you."

"Today, Zhou Tong will go back. Xia'er and I have to stay with you for a few more days!" Luo Daye said.

"what?"

Blacksmith Luo was surprised.

Luo Fengtang, who had been eating in silence, was also stunned, his brows furrowed faintly.

Over there, Luo Daye went on to talk.

"Xia'er's ankle is sprained, and she can't walk long distances. Let's go after she recovers for a few days." She said.

Before Blacksmith Luo had time to express his opinion, Luo Fengtang, who had been silent all the time, had already spoken out first.

"It's okay if you can't leave, I'll get you an ox cart to take you back," he said.

Luo Daye almost choked on a mouthful of cake.

He swallowed hard and finally swallowed the cake.

She pointed at Luo Fengtang with the chopsticks in her hand and yelled: "Oh my god, why are you so ignorant?"

"Your sister hasn't been to your house for several years, you don't want to keep her for a few more days, and you still rush out in front of her like this?"

Luo Fengtang said with a blank face: "I didn't rush, it's because my aunt said she couldn't walk a long way, so I'm kind enough to give it a ride?"

He shook his head, lowered his head and continued to eat gruel.

Luo Daye was so angry that she yelled at Blacksmith Luo again.

Zhou Xia sat there with her head down, her face flushed, and she bit her lip lightly.

Blacksmith Luo fights as big as a bull.

"Da'e, don't get me wrong, Tang Yazi didn't mean that..."

Blacksmith Luo explained.

"Then what does he mean? Is this still my natal family? Can I stay with my daughter with a broken foot for a few more nights? Brother, just give me a good word!"

Luo Daye said sharply.

"It's been a hundred days since I hurt my muscles and bones. Although my cousin's foot injury is not that serious, it is necessary to rest for a few days without leaving the ground!"

A crisp voice suddenly broke in.

Immediately, a figure entered the yard.

Everyone followed the sound and saw Yang Ruoqing entering the main room with a smile.

Luo Fengtang's eyes were instantly lit up.

"Qing'er, why are you here? Have you had breakfast?"

When he asked these words, he had already pulled away and stood beside her.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded at him.

"I've eaten earlier, I just sent my two younger brothers back from school," she said.

"Thinking of Cousin Xia'er's foot injury, I'm worried, so I'll come in and have a look," she said.

Luo Fengtang nodded.

Blacksmith Luo beside him looked relieved and nodded secretly.

Xia'er is considerate, and Qing'er, the nephew and daughter-in-law, is even more sensible.

They are all good girls!

And Zhou Tong, who was sitting at the table, was also moved when he heard Yang Ruoqing's words.

"Girl Qing, it's hard for you, you still miss Xia'er like this." Zhou said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and waved her hands: "Uncle, don't be polite to me, we are relatives."

After all, her eyes fell on Zhou Xia.

"Cousin, how did your feet feel after last night? Did it hurt a lot?"

she asked with a smile.

Zhou Xia suppressed the annoyance in her heart, and smiled gratefully at Yang Ruoqing.

"It doesn't hurt much, thank you cousin for pushing and rubbing."

Thank you for the eight generations of your ancestors, let me pick up a bitter meal for nothing!

Zhou Xia gritted her teeth secretly.

Yang Ruoqing nodded with a smile: "It's good if it doesn't hurt too much. Cousin, your legs are inconvenient, so you should stay here for a few more days."

"Anyway, I'm free every day, push and rub, and I'll come if you call..."

"No no no."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Xia interrupted him.

"My cousin's kindness is appreciated, Xia'er appreciates it, I don't need to push and rub my feet anymore, let it recover slowly on its own," Zhou Xia said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded briskly: "That's fine, but then you have to let your cousin go to the town to catch a pair of bruise medicine for you to drink and then recuperate."

"Your sister has been afraid of suffering since she was a child. If you can't drink the medicine, don't waste that money!"

Luo Daye quickly stopped Zhou Xia.

Yesterday when I pushed and kneaded the child, the woman was concerned and confused, and didn't understand the meaning of the girl.
