Chapter 12 Gossip
Wang Xiulian was still worrying about dinner, but now she is fine and has something to eat!
Wang Xiulian laughed and said, and hurriedly took the things to the kitchen, tied on the old apron, and prepared to cook dinner.

"Mom, what are you having for dinner tonight?" Chen Xiangyun suddenly appeared outside the kitchen and looked into the kitchen with his head hooked.

Seeing the fish and pheasant placed in the kitchen, Chen Xiangyun's eyes widened.

OMG, pheasants!
What kind of shit luck is my sister-in-law to find two pheasants on the mountain, and they are fat and big!

Seeing that Chen Xiangyun was staring at the two pheasants with both eyes, Wang Xiulian was afraid that Chen Xiangyun would be tempted by the two pheasants, so she quickly explained: "These two chickens are not going to be eaten, they are raised to lay eggs, and they will be eaten after the New Year." .”

Chen Xiangyun pouted, the old woman was clearly warning her!

Her life in the Tang family is getting more and more difficult!
Tang Anning walked into the kitchen, and immediately saw Chen Xiangyun's vicious gaze.

"Second sister-in-law, my mother and I are ready to make dinner. If you have nothing to do, please don't block the door." Tang Anning said to Chen Xiangyun rudely.

Chen Xiangyun turned his head and went out.

Tang Anning rolled up her sleeves and joined hands with Wang Xiulian in the kitchen to cook.

Out of the corner of her eye, she looked at the yard, and saw Chen Xiangyun standing in the yard for a while, as if thinking of something, riding the twilight, she ran towards Dahe Village in a swift motion.

Dahe Village is the village of Chen Xiangyun's natal family, next to Dashan Village.

From Dashan Village to Dahe Village, the distance is only 10 minutes.

Tang Anning immediately guessed that Chen Xiangyun had gone to her natal family!
***
The two pheasants Wang Xiulian refused to kill.

"It's not easy to catch pheasants. These two pheasants are both hens and can lay eggs. Let's save the eggs for now," said Wang Xiulian.

Tang Anning saw that Wang Xiulian was reluctant to kill the two pheasants, so she thought it would be better to raise them first, so that she could fish in troubled waters, and put a few eggs bought from the mall in the chicken coop from time to time to subsidize the family.

Tonight is fish soup, two big fish, the stewed fish soup is rich and fragrant.

Tang Aiguo, Tang Aimin and Tang Aijun who just came back from the field were all salivating from the aroma.

The most exciting thing is the children. They didn’t have enough braised pork in the morning, and they ate fish in the evening. They eat meat twice a day. They are even more excited than Chinese New Year!
The delicious stewed fish had just been brought to the table, and everyone couldn't wait to sit down and prepare to eat. They saw Chen Xiangyun walking in a hurry, followed by a woman with a fierce face, holding one in her arms and holding two in her hand.

The oldest of the three children was eight years old and the youngest was four years old, drooling over the stewed fish on the table.

Chen Xiangyun went and brought three stools as if no one was around: "Sister-in-law, sit here with donkey eggs and eat them! Cat eggs and dog eggs, you two will eat with me!"

Chen Xiangyun's sister-in-law Xu Hongxia sat down on the stool without seeing anything.

Maodan and Goudan also ran to Chen Xiangyun's side, pushing Xiaolong and Xiaofeng aside.

The two children, Xiaolong and Xiaofeng, pursed their lips aggrievedly, and they were about to cry.

Wang Xiulian's face suddenly became ugly.

The faces of the other people at the dinner table were also ugly, but Chen Xiangyun's majesty in this family was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so no one dared to speak.

The eldest sister-in-law Tian Qiuxiang finally couldn't help but said in her words: "Xiangyun, why didn't you say something in advance when your sister-in-law came today? If you said in advance, you could make something for Hongxia and the others in advance."

The implication is that tonight's meal is not for Xu Hongxia and the others.

Chen Xiangyun said cheekily: "It's just a matter of adding three pairs of bowls and chopsticks! No trouble!"

Tang Anning thought to herself, she guessed right, Chen Xiangyun ran to her natal home during the cooking time just now, and even called his natal sister-in-law and two children over!

Now is the time of famine, and her own children can't get enough to eat, yet Chen Xiangyun even wants to raise the children for her mother's family!
Chen Xiangyun's natal family was lazy, and they were notified many times by the brigade because they were lazy at work.

In her last life, she could bear it as much as she could, and it was fine for Chen Xiangyun to be domineering at home, but in this life she can't bear it anymore!

Tang Anning glanced at Chen Xiangyun, then at Xu Hongxia, who couldn't see anything, and said coldly: "Second sister-in-law, I bought this fish with money, it's only enough for our family, there's nothing extra. It's not enough to earn money now. Days are not easy, and no one’s money comes from the wind. You can bring people to eat, and you can pay as much as you want. The two fish are ten yuan in total, and three more people will have to pay 1 5 cents."

When Xu Hongxia, who was holding a large bowl and preparing to catch fish, heard this, her fierce face suddenly became more fierce.

Xu Hongxia put the bowl on the table with a "slap", stared at Chen Xiangyun with eyes that were about to fall out, and said, "Xiangyun, didn't you say that you are in charge of the house? Why, you still have to charge money for eating at your house?"

Chen Xiangyun's face also fell sharply. I didn't expect my sister-in-law to embarrass her on the spot!

If Xu Hongxia returned to Dahe Village and spread the word, wouldn't her reputation be ruined?

Chen Xiangyun's face suddenly became ugly. She stared at Tang Anning, and said dissatisfiedly: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean? We are all one family, and the family has to charge money for meals. Are you just looking for money? The six relatives don't even recognize each other?"

Tang Anning said coldly: "Second sister-in-law, if you don't charge money for bringing your mother's family to dinner today, it will definitely be unfair to sister-in-law and third sister-in-law. If sister-in-law brings someone from her mother's house tomorrow, third sister-in-law will also bring someone from her mother's house the day after tomorrow , can our poor family survive?"

These words left Chen Xiangyun speechless.

Wang Xiulian looked at Tang Anning in surprise, unexpectedly Tang Anning became eloquent.

Ma Ailian from the third family has long since lost sight of her, and this Xu Hongxia has no manners at all, she simply doesn't treat herself as an outsider.

Taking advantage of my sister-in-law's attack on Chen Xiangyun, Ma Ailian also took the opportunity to say yin and yang: "Second sister-in-law, I support my sister-in-law's approach. These days, every household is clinking with poverty, and it is not easy to have a full meal. Today, sister-in-law Hongxia took her Tomorrow, my sister-in-law and I will go to my natal family to call our natal family over to eat and drink for free. This method is a toss, and our poor family can't afford to toss."

Ma Ailian paused, and then said: "So according to me, we will follow the method proposed by my sister-in-law. Whoever brings his family will pay according to the head."

Tang Aijun originally wanted to signal Ma Ailian not to talk too much, but seeing that Chen Xiangyun was going too far, unexpectedly he didn't stop Ma Ailian today.

With the support of her daughter and two daughters-in-law, Wang Xiulian has enough confidence.

As the head of the family, Wang Xiulian said: "Second brother, do you understand?"

Xu Hongxia's face suddenly darkened.

She was willing to come here to eat to give the family face, and they dare to charge?

"Cat eggs, dog eggs, don't eat, let's go!" Xu Hongxia stood up suddenly, and roughly pulled the cat eggs and dog eggs, holding one in her arms and two in her hands, the three mothers were black The face rushed out.

Chen Xiangyun pointed at Tang Anning's nose angrily and said, "Sister-in-law, you have changed and come up with bad ideas! It's dark and midnight, if anything happens to my sister-in-law and the three children, I will never end with you!"

Chen Xiangyun called "Sister-in-law" and rushed out.

After a while, Chen Xiangyun turned back in a hurry, raised his hand and slapped the second brother Tang Aimin on the head: "I keep my share!"

After explaining, Chen Xiangyun rushed into the night shouting "Sister-in-law".

A storm finally passed.

The next morning, Tang Anning put on a straw hat and a long-sleeved shirt, and went to the field to weed.

Her complexion is a bit dark, and she was exposed to the wind and sun in the countryside, and she didn't know how to take care of it since she was a child.

The girls in the countryside are not as delicate as the girls in the city. They have been beaten and beaten since they were young.

It wasn't until she found Bai Mulin who abandoned her in the city in her last life, and was ridiculed by Bai Mulin's new wife as "a dark and shabby native woman", she was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

In this life, she must do a good job of sun protection to keep her complexion white!

When Tang Anning arrived in the field, several men suddenly looked at her and laughed maliciously.

Zhang Manman, a short-haired female educated youth with a pot head, also looked at her mockingly.

Tang Anning frowned, and immediately guessed that Zhang Manman must be spreading her rumors behind her back.

Sure enough, she approached those young men, only to hear them talking about her maliciously:
"Tang Anning hooked up with Ye San foolishly, and was bumped into by Zhang Zhiqing! The two of them hid together on the mountain. I don't know what kind of shady tricks they did!"

"How could she fall in love with a fool?"

"Maybe fools also have 'superior qualities'..."

After the few men finished speaking, they all laughed heartily.

Tang Anning gave Zhang Manman a cold look. Zhang Manman raised his chin, as if reporting the worry of being pushed on the mountain, and looked at her triumphantly.

While Tang Anning was carrying a hoe and digging into the field she was assigned, she thought to herself that the rumors about her and Ye Fan had been spread seriously.

It seemed that she had to find an opportunity to remind Ye Fan on the sidelines, let Ye Fan come to propose marriage earlier, and not allow rumors to fly everywhere, otherwise her father, mother and brother would be embarrassed, especially her eldest brother is still the captain of the second team.

But the difficult thing came again - Ye Fan was scared away when he saw her, and he didn't have a chance to speak properly.

And even if she told Ye Fan about it, would Ye Fan understand it?

Tang Anning bent over to hoe the ground, full of worries.

"Mulin, have you heard?" Zhang Yunlong took a book and walked towards Bai Mulin who was hoeing.

Bai Mulin put down the hoe in his hand, a few drops of sweat hung on his handsome face, he wiped the sweat with a sweat towel, and asked Zhang Yunlong, "What did you hear?"

"It's Tang Anning and Ye San's silly business." Zhang Yunlong said seriously.

Bai Mulin's heart sank, just now he heard those gossip young men talking about Tang Anning and Ye Sansha.

Out of the nobility of a scholar, he didn't mix in with this group of people, but continued to hoe the ground.

But he couldn't help pricking up one ear and listening carefully.

He vaguely heard those idle men laughing and saying "Tang Anning and Ye Fan went up the mountain", and if he listened carefully, the rest of the words were covered by those men's malicious laughter. In a hurry.

It so happened that Zhang Yunlong came here at this moment.

"What can Tang Anning and Ye Sansha do? Yunlong, as educated youths, we must set an example for the villagers in Dashan Village, and you should not get involved in these silly gossips."

Bai Mulin put on an air of indifference, he has nothing to do with himself, and hangs himself high, which is also his usual personality.

In fact, he knew Zhang Yunlong very well, this brother Yunlong with a straight mind, he couldn't hide things in his heart, so he would definitely continue talking.

Sure enough, Zhang Yunlong approached Bai Mulin, lowered his voice, and said in a serious manner: "The two were hugging each other on the mountain yesterday! It seems that they have done something shameful!"

Bai Mulin's head swelled with a "boom", as if something had been taken away from his heart, and he was emptied for a moment.

He raised his hand to wipe his sweat, concealing his panic, and said calmly, "Impossible. Although Tang Anning is not smart, she is not so stupid..."

Zhang Yunlong glanced at the pothead Zhang Manman: "I'm not talking nonsense. Zhang Manman bumped into her on the mountain yesterday, and she told me herself. Zhang Manman won't be talking nonsense, right?"

Bai Mulin felt his head was in a daze, and after a while, he came to his senses and asked Zhang Yunlong, "Did Zhang Manman see it with his own eyes?"

"That's right!" Zhang Yunlong said, "Zhang Manman is an educated youth, she won't make random arrangements, right?"

Zhang Yunlong's gaze accidentally slipped to Bai Mulin's hand holding the hoe, and he frowned: "Brother Bai, why are your hands shaking?"

Bai Mulin quickly shook his head: "I've never worked so hard before, I'm so tired."

After a pause, Bai Mulin looked at Zhang Yunlong with a pale face, and smiled weakly: "I'm going to continue working. Let's talk later."

Looking at Bai Mulin, Zhang Yunlong couldn't help shaking his head: "Brother Bai, you only care about work, and you don't care about the relationship between men and women at all! Oh, what a pity, what a pity, Tang Anning is such a good girl... ..."

Seeing that Bai Mulin refused to chat with him, Zhang Yunlong shook his head and left.

Only then did Bai Mulin stop what he was doing, and Zhang Yunlong's words kept echoing in his mind:
"It's a pity, Tang Anning is such a nice girl..."

Bai Mulin felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained.

He couldn't accept that Tang Anning and Ye San were stupid together.

How could Ye San be so stupid, she actually made a fool of herself and let herself be with a fool?
Bai Mulin thought again of Tang Anning's beautiful and dark smiling face, always with a shy and sweet smile. After a while, she would suddenly run up to Bai Mulin and put a white flour steamed bun wrapped in newspaper on Bai Mulin's face. Put it on the book under the tree, then blink mischievously, and run away shyly.

But that was all before she fell into the water.

After Tang Anning fell into the water, she seemed to be a different person, and treated him extremely coldly.
