Chapter 23 No.20
After seeing off a few aunts, workers from the textile factory were welcomed soon. Before the workers had finished walking, the students from the school came again. Some of them had eaten their spicy strips and dried fish, and specially Bring your classmates to buy.

Because he is a student, he doesn't have much money in his hands, and Ning Xi doesn't think they have little money. He will buy it for a penny or two cents. It's already sold out.

When the two packed their baskets and were about to go back, two uninvited guests appeared.

Chen Haijun and Ning Juan walked out of the textile factory arm in arm.

The two also saw Ning Xi, and walked towards them arm in arm. Before they arrived, Ning Juan had already called out, "Second Sister."

Ning Xi didn't raise her head, and packed her things slowly.

"Second Sister, why did you come here to set up a stall?" Ning Juan walked up to Ning Xi, held Ning Xi's hand intimately and asked worriedly, "Didn't you just take away 400 yuan from uncle?" ? Not anymore?"

"Ning Juan, what do you want to express? Do you want to say that I am married and go to my mother's house to get money, or do you want to say that I am lazy and squandered the 400 yuan as soon as I get it?" Ning Xi withdrew her hand with a cold face. Juan distanced herself.

This is Ning Juan's usual method. She speaks words of concern, but slanders her everywhere.

In her previous life, she was deceived by Ning Juan's appearance of always caring for her. If she could grow her brains, she might not be so miserable by them.

Ning Juan lowered her head aggrieved, "Second Sister, I didn't mean that."

Ning Xi pursed her lips, looked at her and pretended to be wronged, obviously she was the victim, but in front of Ning Juan, she looked like a bad person "What does that mean? I did take money from them, but those The money was bought by my man with his two legs. They took away 1000 of the 600 yuan pension for various reasons. Ning Hong even found a reason to borrow 300 from me. The entire 900 yuan went to them pocket, I only got back 400, is there something wrong?"

"Isn't Eldest Sister already..."

Before Ning Juan could speak, Ning Xi had already interrupted her, "I heard that Ning Erlong asked Chen Haijun for a bride price of 200 yuan. If you can't get the money within three days, you will be forced to go to the hospital and beat the baby in your stomach."

Ning Juan's face turned red, "This is my house..."

Ning Xi looked down at Ning Juan's belly, and interrupted her again, "Ning Juan, what do your parents think? The child is pregnant and there are so many demands, let alone a gift of 200 yuan, let's go to the countryside. There are not many houses in the town who can get it out, and what's more! Everyone in the village knows about your pregnancy before marriage, and if you beat the child, you don't want to get married again."

Zhang Ying had already packed the pannier, put the pannier on her back, and said in a timely manner, "Why not, those who have lost their wives will not dislike her."

"You guys are going too far." Ning Juan's eyes were red, and she looked as if she had suffered a lot of grievances. She was the one who came up to embarrass Ning Xi first, and Ning Xi didn't say anything harsh. The wicked.

"Is what Ning Xi said wrong? You are pregnant, and your parents still have the face to ask for a 200 gift. If other girls want the man to pick her up quickly to avoid embarrassment." hand, without looking back.

"Ning Xi, I'm not done with you." Ning Juan gave Ning Xi a vicious look, and hurriedly chased after Chen Haijun. "Brother Haijun, you know that I have my heart and soul for you."

"But it's true that your parents want to use you to take the money from me to save for your brother to find a wife. If it weren't for the fact that I really like you, I'm not afraid that your parents will send you to the hospital to have an abortion."

Watching the two walk away, Ning Xi's lips twitched slightly.

Are you single-minded?

I'll just wait and see how long the single-mindedness of the two of you will last.

"Xiaoxi, Yingzi." Lu Zhenghai led Lu Bei out of the school, and saw the two of them from a distance.

"Dad (third uncle)" the two hurriedly greeted each other.

As they approached, Lu Bei also greeted, "Second sister-in-law, sister-in-law."

Ning Xi smiled and asked, "How is Xiao Bei's exam?"

Lu Bei proudly raised his head, "First in grade."

Lu Zhenghai couldn't bear the sight of his arrogant appearance, "What are you proud of? If you have the ability to take the first place in the school every year like your sister-in-law."

Speaking of Ning Xi, Lu Zhenghai glanced at Ning Xi, once again disappointed in his eyes, if this girl listened to him and continued to study, she would have finished the college entrance examination and was at home waiting to get her admission letter.

Zhang Ying also couldn't bear Lu Bei's arrogant appearance and said half-jokingly, "Xiao Bei, if you don't work hard, when your sister-in-law returns to school next semester, you won't even be the first in the grade."

Lu Bei said nonchalantly, "It's nothing to be ashamed of losing to sister-in-law."

Lu Zhenghai was both surprised and delighted and hurriedly asked, "Have you decided to go back to study?"

Ning Xi nodded, "Yes! Brother Nan will also take the college entrance examination next year. If I don't even have a high school diploma, how can I be worthy of him?"

"Life is lived by yourself. Only you know whether you are worthy or not. As long as you are good, it doesn't matter what others say." Lu Zhenghai had a faint smile on his face, and the disappointment in his eyes disappeared.

Ning Xi smiled slightly, "Before school starts, I have to trouble Dad to help me go through the formalities for returning to school!"

"Just open the school and say hello to the school. The school will be very happy if you can come back."

Today happened to be the day to go to the market, and a few people went back in a bullock cart.

When the four of them returned to the village, it was almost 12:30. Lu Zhenghai handed Ning Xi an oiled paper bag, "I bought pig's trotters for Xiao Nan, take it back and stew it for him."

The bones and trotters I bought before were stewed by Wang Xiuqin for help. Seeing that Ning Xi is in good condition with Lu Nan today, there is no need to bother Wang Xiuqin for help.

"Dad, it's already past noon. You and Xiaobei have to cook again when you go back, or you can eat at our place." At this moment, most people have already had lunch. According to Yang Yufeng's selfishness, it is impossible to give Lu a meal. Zheng Hai and Lu Bei stayed for dinner.

Lu Zhenghai thought for a while and nodded, "That's fine."

When she got home, Ning Xi put down her basket and went to the kitchen, "Dad, take a break first, and I'll cook two more dishes."

She first went to the small vegetable garden outside the kitchen to pick two bitter gourds, some green peppers, and made bitter gourd fried lean meat and green pepper fried meat. Before the rice was ready, she took out the pig's feet, washed them, and put them in a casserole to add some herbs. Stew on.

"Dad, Brother Nan, and Xiaobei have eaten." Ning Xi called out from the kitchen door, then walked back to the kitchen and put the food on the table.

"It's so spicy." As soon as he entered the kitchen, Lu Bei rubbed his nose. The smell of green pepper was too spicy.

Lu Nan glanced at Lu Bei with disgust, "Why didn't I see you dislike spicy food when I was eating spicy strips?"

"The spicy strips are not spicy." Lu Bei said that the chili peppers were spicy, but he still put some in his mouth. "The food cooked by my sister-in-law is better than that made by my mother."

"If you like to eat, you can come over to eat every day." Ning Xi smiled and picked some bitter gourd for Lu Nan. "Brother Nan, eat more bitter gourd, it will clear away the heat."

"How do you make this bitter gourd? It's only a little bit bitter." Lu Zhenghai couldn't help but take another bite of the bitter gourd. In his understanding, bitter gourd is always bitter, and this is the first time he's eaten a bitter gourd with only a slight bitter taste. arrive.
