A leisurely life with Lingquan

Chapter 166

"I went to the town to see my eldest sister." Li Liuer said with a smile.

"Eldest sister?" Li Xi was puzzled, when will another eldest sister come out.

Li Liuer sighed and shook his head before explaining: "Your brother-in-law has an elder sister who is one year older than him, but she was bought by her parents-in-law to be a maid when she was very young. I didn't want this elder sister to come here a month ago. I just found out that she is now working as a maid at the grandson's family in the town, or as a maid at the side of the son of Yuan's family, so she is also struggling. This may be because she missed her parents and came all the way here. Didn't you see that at that time? Crying with your head in your arms."

Li Xi gave Li Liuer a strange look, raised her eyebrows and said tentatively, "Is this eldest sister treating you badly?" Li Liuer spoke with disdain, but she was right.

"It's not a bad thing." Speaking of this, Li Liu'er snorted softly, curled her lips, stretched out her hand to hold her younger sister's hand, a little annoyed: "It's just a maid from Yuanwai's family, and it's not like the lady is arrogant."

Li Xi understood a little bit, touched her sister's belly and said in a calm manner: "Does brother-in-law's elder sister look down on sister?"

"It's not just that I don't like it. On the first day I came here, I didn't look at your sister and me. When I talked about me, I also looked disdainful, with eyes growing on my head. Don't think I don't know. , What about the big maid next to Mr. Yuan, this is for face, I don’t know when she climbed into bed without a title, and she looks down on me.”

This passage contains a lot of information, and Li Xi's eyes widened slightly. He didn't expect to hear such gossip just by visiting a relative. He really didn't know what to say.

"Forget it, what is she doing, anyway, she won't go back to this house, I just look at her to get angry." Li Liu'er looked at her younger sister, and knew that she had said it, so she changed the subject with a sneering smile: " How are you doing recently, the business at home and the restaurant is okay, I can see it, the food you make is delicious."

It's just my brother-in-law's eldest sister, which doesn't interfere with Li Xi's affairs, and what Li Liu'er said is right, this eldest sister is now with the son of Yuanwai's family, and the life of a maid from a wealthy family is better than that of ordinary people like them. He probably wouldn't even ask her to come back, and it wouldn't hinder Li Liu'er, so he put this matter behind him, and immediately talked to Li Liuer about the things in the village and the daily life.

I planned to eat here at noon. Li Liuer's body is inconvenient and he can't work too much. Li Xi will cook this meal. As for Zhao Mu and Xu Fang, they will start with each other. It's enough to cook a few dishes and cook a pot of rice. , They are all from my own family and there is no need to be too polite.

There were only four people in the family, so there was no way to avoid suspicion. The four of them sat around a table to eat, chatting by the way, and also knew that Zhao Mu was working in the yamen during the meal. Xu Fang and Li Liu'er were very happy about it.

"This job is good. I don't have to worry about losing my job if I work for an official," Xu Fang said.

Well, the civil servants there are all iron rice bowls, 囧~
After the meal, a few people continued chatting about the housework together, but it didn't take long for Li Xi to take Li Liuer back to the room first. Pregnant women should have enough rest. It is best to take a nap after the meal. The eyes of the daughter-in-law are fighting Yes, Xu Fang hurriedly asked people to go back to the room to sleep.

In the afternoon, Li Liuer and his wife wanted to keep someone for dinner, but Li Xi refused. It would be late after dinner, and it would be better to go back early. There are a group of chickens, ducks and poultry at home, so I don’t feel at ease. , especially Ah Hei, it is estimated that this guy is waiting for the two of them to go back. "What are you talking about with your brother-in-law today? You're so speculative." Leaning on Zhao Mu's generous back, Li Xi grabbed the dog's tail grass in his hand, and scratched Humanity once and for all.

"Brother-in-law wants to open a grocery store in the town, and he is really looking for a store. I want to ask if I can give him a look." Zhao Mu said. He works in the yamen and patrols the town on weekdays. You can understand it once you arrive at it, and you can ask others if it’s not good enough.

Li Xi nodded: "It's good to open a grocery store. If you do it well, you can make a lot of money." She can see that Xu Fang is sincere to her sister and protects her at home. Naturally, Li Xi hopes that the two People get better and better.

Zhao Mu was also grateful to Li Liuer for taking care of Xi'er when he was at home, and naturally he did his part: "Don't worry, I'll ask Guandong when I get back, he must know more than me."

"By the way, let's go to town sometime. Guandong said that his wife wants to meet us very much and wants to have dinner at his house together."

Li Xi is also very grateful to Guandong for taking care of Zhao Mu, and has wanted to visit for a long time. Hearing this, he agrees: "Okay, I'll take a look when I get back. Well, why don't we go at the end of the month, or we'll have to go back to the farm later. There must be no time."

"Well, just as you said." Zhao Mu had no objection.

Along the way, the two were chatting again, and they were about to enter the village, but a person on the side of the road caught Li Xi's attention.

"Who do you think that is?" Li Xi poked Zhao Mu and said, looking familiar, but not thinking about it for a while.

"Aunt Lu's daughter-in-law, um, and a daughter." Zhao Mu looked carefully and said hesitantly.

As soon as Li Xi heard that it was from the Lu family, Li Xi was not very interested. He really didn't have the slightest liking for that family, and he didn't want to mess with them, lest they would be like a cowhide plaster.

Originally, I wanted to drive the car and leave, but if you don't go forward, others will come forward.

"Brother Zhao Mu, you give us a ride."

After everyone has spoken, it is really impossible to refuse clearly, so Zhao Mu stopped helplessly.

Li Xi grabbed Zhao Mu's shoulders and looked. The two daughters-in-law of Lu's family and a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old were standing by the roadside, looking at them eagerly. The key is that the clothes on the three of them were wrinkled and stained. Looking extremely embarrassed in the muddy water.

Dazed for a moment, Li Xi pointed at the appearance of the three of them and said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you, you made it like this?"

"Oh, don't mention it. My ankle hurts so badly that I can't go on the road. Sister Xi'er, you are kind enough to give my sister-in-law a ride today." Lu's daughter-in-law Liu yelled.

It's all climbed up, what else can she say, Li Xi was speechless for a while, and then pulled Sun and the girl up one by one, and waited until Zhao Mu sat down before driving the car, and Li Xi also asked curiously stand up.

"Don't mention it, the persimmons are ripe at my mother's house. Today I went to pick persimmons with my sister-in-law. I didn't expect to meet two wild dogs when I came back. I chased them for a long way. I didn't fall into the mud." Liu Shi gritted his teeth and cursed: "Don't show me whose dog it is, or I won't skin it alive."

Li Xixuan didn't laugh because she was kicked out by a dog: "Well, why are you three alone? Brother Zhao Qian and the others didn't accompany you." It's a pity that Mrs. Lu didn't go, otherwise see how she was kicked out by a dog It looks good too.
