Wang's little lady

Chapter 141 Lost the corn, came the watermelon

The others were busy picking up the remaining tea leaves and did not notice Ju Hua's actions. However, Granny Xie happened to be facing the direction of the two of them.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw Juhua. This girl's eyes were constantly looking at Ren Jiangshun. She even walked out and looked back.

Mrs. Xie frowned slightly and imagined a possibility.

Is this girl looking at Jiang Shun?

I'm afraid this is inappropriate.

Although she felt pity for Jiang Shun, this guy seemed to be quite talented, but Jiang Shun only had a seriously ill mother in his family.

If you find such a family, after getting married, the young couple will have a hard time without the support of their parents.

Moreover, Jiang Shun's mother often needs to take medicine, and she doesn't know how long she can live.

Don't think it's a good thing if you don't have a mother-in-law above you. Without an elder in the family watching over you, the younger generation may not be able to be thoughtful about many things.

As the old saying goes: An elder in the family is like a treasure.

There is always a reason for this.

"Grandma, what are you thinking about?" Hongdou looked up and saw her grandma looking outside the village. The expression on her face changed from time to time, which was funny.

Mrs. Xie came to her senses when she heard her granddaughter suddenly calling her.

Maybe I'm overthinking it, but as a little girl, when I see a better-looking man, I can't help but take a second look.

She was like this when she was young, so it doesn't necessarily mean that she has something in mind.

"It's nothing. I just got distracted. Is the tea behind me still going to dry for a while? I'm going to walk around first."

Aunt Qu had no other work to do at this time, so she took the initiative to lead Mrs. Xie the way. The two happened to be familiar with each other.

Mrs. Xie looked around and saw that this village was pretty good. There was some wasteland nearby. Rich people really didn't know how to live. If this wasteland was opened up, they could grow some vegetables to eat.

"When was this land opened and what was planted?"

Seeing the old lady pointing to a small piece next to Zhuangzi and asking, Aunt Qu quickly replied:

"Old madam, that is a small piece of land that my old man and I opened a few days ago. We planted some ginger, garlic and the like. It is just in use for cooking on weekdays."

I was embarrassed to hear Aunt Qu call her "old lady, old lady". They should be about the same age.

But this Zhuangzi belongs to her granddaughter, and Aunt Qu is also married, so it seems right to call her "Old Madam".

"Ahem, um, Aunt Qu did a good job. I think the wasteland around here is spacious, and it's within the scope of Zhuangzi. Meng and I will have nothing to do right now. Let's drive some out today."

"If you take the time to open it every day, you can open an acre of land. It's very cost-effective."

The more Mrs. Xie thought about it, the more she thought it would work. Her granddaughter was still young and incapable of thinking about things. This would free up an acre of land. What a great thing.

The two of them stopped shopping and walked back directly. They asked Meng and Dasan to pick up the stuff and come to the door.

Hongdou is not disappointed either. Grandma will do whatever she wants. When the tea business gets on track, the family can buy some land nearby.

Grow some grain and peas and stuff.

After more than an hour, the tea leaves were almost spread out to dry, so Mrs. Xie returned to the village to help make tea together. With Mrs. Xie's help, the work went much faster today.

It happened that Meng Da got up early in the morning and went for a walk in the mountains and hunted some game, so a few people simply stayed for dinner.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Xie was the first to talk about the marriage between Meng Da and the other three.

"I promised you three things before, and now it's time to fulfill them. You have work now, and your monthly money is so high. As long as you stay calm and don't act like a monster, you will definitely be able to support your family."

Meng Da and the three of them had almost forgotten about this matter, but they didn't expect that the old lady of the Xie family would still remember it.

"Really, aunt, which family is this girl from?" Meng San asked first. He wanted to get a wife.

Although Meng Da and Meng Er did not speak, their eyes looked at Granny Xie expectantly, and their meaning was obvious.

"Why are you in a hurry? This is a major matter of marriage, why don't you take your time and look at it slowly? Can it be better if you just look for it?"

Young people are impatient, and they have to polish it off slowly~
Meng and the other three people didn't feel the taste of their meal anymore. Their minds were filled with the idea that the old lady of the Xie family was going to marry them.

"Hurry up and eat. Why bother? How much money have you saved? Is the gift enough, is it enough to build a house? If it's not enough, there's no point in hurrying."

At most, you can help them look at each other slowly, and ask more if they are suitable.However, the three of them are guarding their village, so they must find a girl with clean hands and feet and no unnecessary thoughts.

Otherwise, if these three were blown away by the pillow wind, wouldn't Zhuangzi be in trouble?It would be best for her family to decide on the marriage of these three people.

After a few people had eaten, they hurried back before it got dark.

The next day, Aunt Li brought Zhang Keren's brother Zhang Keshuan over to get the jelly.The Xie family didn't ask any questions and directly brought out the prepared jelly.

"Auntie, this is your share. This is this little brother's. Today is the first time he sells it. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with it, so I only prepared 100 yuan for him." Mrs. Zhang said as she divided the jelly into packages. OK, let them each carry it to their own carts.

Zhang Keshuan didn't want too little. He knew that if he sold well, he could increase the amount.

He was going to sell in other towns today and had to leave early.

The jelly was all distributed today. Hongdou and Xiaoya were just about to clean up the yard when they heard a familiar voice calling at the door.

"Brother Tuanzi, sister Hongdou, sister Xiaoya, Xiaobao is here."

Hongdou: "..." Is this only the second day?

Brother Tuan: "..." Brother Xiaobao really likes him.

Xiaoya: "???" This voice is so familiar.

Several people were surprised and didn't respond. After looking at each other, they heard Xiaobao's urging again.

"Brother Tuanzi, I'm here to play with you. I know you are inside. Please open the door quickly. Xiaobao is tired from shouting."

Hongdou reacted and ran over quickly. The doormen were Xiaobao and Zisu, and there was also a strange old gentleman beside them. He looked older than his mother and younger than his grandma.

"Sister Hongdou." Zisu also didn't expect that Young Master Xu would bother his grandfather to come to ask about the Xie family's residence early in the morning.

The lady had no choice but to tell her to bring the person over.

"Come in and talk, you three. Don't stand outside." Even though she had many questions in her heart, Hongdou couldn't just leave the person outside the door.

Xiaobao let go of his grandfather's hand and ran inside unceremoniously: "Brother Tuanzi, Xiaobao is here to see you."

Mr. Xu and Zisu followed them to the courtyard, and then explained with a generous smile: "Miss Xie, old lady, madam, I'm disturbing you today."

"My grandson has been talking about the young master of your house since he woke up early in the morning. As a grandfather, I really can't defeat my grandson."

"This is a rash visit, so I'm sorry for you."

After Mr. Xu finished speaking, the two sides bowed, and Hongdou was so frightened that he quickly stepped forward to stop him.This old gentleman must be the guest at the Yu family's banquet yesterday.

To be a good friend of Master Yu, you are not an ordinary person no matter how you think about it, not to mention this kind of demeanor, as long as you are not blind, you will not look down upon it.

"You're welcome, sir. Children naturally like to play with their peers. My younger brother doesn't have any friends of the same age, so he does feel a bit lonely."

"We are happy that the two of them can play together."

Hongdou didn't know the specific identity of this old gentleman. Anyway, if you could make friends with him, you could make friends with him, and there was no grudge against him.

"Yes, old gentleman, come in and sit in the room. My daughter-in-law has gone to make tea. Sit and relax." Mrs. Xie also invited politely: "Miss Zisu, come with me."

Mr. Xu is not polite. He has come, so he doesn't care about face anymore.

Zisu said goodbye at this time. She was just leading the way and had to go back to run errands.

Hongdou motioned to her grandma to greet the guests first and she would see them off.

The two came outside the door, and Hongdou dared to ask: "Sister Zisu, was the old gentleman a guest at the house yesterday? Why today?"

Zisu didn't hide it either. Mr. Xu had brought the young master to his house, so he had to make it clear.

"Mr. Xu brought the young master to the Yu family early in the morning. The young master is making trouble to find your brother."

Zi Su looked behind the door, lowered her voice and said:

"It was inconvenient for me to tell you yesterday. Mr. Xu's mother is no longer alive. His father later remarried and neglected his children too much."

"The old man felt sorry for his grandson, so he took him on a study tour and to relax."

No wonder Hongdou always felt that Xiaobao was a little clingy. It turned out that with such a life experience, a child without a mother was a bit pitiful.

If the stepmother is not good, even if the child grows up safely, the child may be dead.

Zi Su saw that Hong Dou had some sympathy for Young Master Xu. Thinking of the fate between Young Master Xu and the Xie family, Zi Su changed her mind and continued:

"Sister Xie, to tell you the truth, my master has no plans to accept students. Madam also guessed what you were thinking before."

"I'm not sure how long the master and his wife will stay here, maybe three to five months, maybe three to five years."

"If you really want to make plans for your brother, you might as well climb up to Mr. Xu."

Hongdou looked at Zisu and didn't understand what she meant. Who is this old man?
Zisu also wanted to have a good relationship, and she and the Xie family sister did get along well: "Mr. Xu is..."

Later, Zi Su whispered to Hong Dou, after all, Mr. Xu was traveling privately.

Hongdou looked at Zisu's leaving figure and couldn't help but sigh that she had lost her corn and got watermelon!
