Chapter 137
"Sister, Sixth Sister-in-Law is sorry for you."

Mrs. Liu wrinkled her face, held Xiu Niang's hand, and talked with some embarrassment.

Xiu Niang was stunned when she heard this, and she looked at Mrs. Liu in doubt, "What's wrong with you, why are you sorry?"

Mrs. Liu looked at Xiuniang, let go of her hand, sat upright, and said, "Hey, sister, today you will beat and scold me, I will admit it."

Seeing the seriousness on Liu Shi's face, Xiu Niang suddenly smiled and raised her hand to cover her mouth.

"No, Sister-in-law Six, even if I want to 'beat or scold' you, or do something else, then I have to know, why do I do this?"

Mrs. Liu glanced at Xiuniang, pursed her lips, and was a little embarrassed to say it.

"……sold……"

Xiu Niang saw Liu's lips moving, but she couldn't hear what she said, "What? Sixth sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"

Mrs. Liu has a quick temper, and it's really not her nature to be so slow, she simply said, "Sister, I took the piece of woodland you discussed with the old knife woman, and I bought it for myself. down."

Now Xiuniang understood, she was taken aback for a moment, and then asked again, she really didn't know why Mrs. Liu wanted the forest land?

"No, Sister-in-law Six, what do you want that woodland for?"

Listening to Xiu Niang's talkative chatter, she didn't get angry or angry as expected, but was just asking ordinary questions, and she felt even more sorry for this girl who got along with her so badly.

Originally, Xiu Niang asked herself to help find the forest land earlier, and the two of them also discussed it, and each had work to do. As for her, she just asked about the forest land between the old knife and his wife, and put it at home to wait for the letter. That's it, and Xiu Niang went to find Mrs. Dao, and asked her to give Shi Laodao more pillow wind, so that she could get rid of the forest land as soon as possible.

But in the end, Xiu Niang almost paved the road, and turned around and asked herself to offer the forest land. Although the money was a little less than before, but just heard what Xiu Niang said, if I was not so anxious Well, maybe the price can be reduced... Hey, now is not the time to think about this.

Mrs. Liu secretly complained to herself, looked at Xiuniang, and talked again.

"Sister, I didn't buy the woodland... Hey, it was actually bought by me, I bought it for my brother."

"Your brother?"

Mrs. Liu didn't say anything, or couldn't say anything, but just nodded.

"Oh." Xiu Niang looked at Mrs. Liu, paused for a while, and then just responded, and then said nothing.

Mrs. Liu looked at it for a moment, a little puzzled, hey, why is this girl so quiet, she pried her woodland, why is this girl so calm?

"Sister, sister, you...you are..."

Xiu Niang smiled at Mrs. Liu, "Alright Mrs. Liu, we still have a lot of dishes to wash here, hurry up."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and began to wash the dishes and chopsticks. Mrs. Liu has done everything, so what else can she say, is it possible that she really wants to fight with her.

Besides, Liu's brother, Xiuniang, had met earlier, and he came to Liu's place half a month ago, carrying a lot of dry goods, saying that he came to visit relatives, but in fact he came to borrow money. That person was in his thirties, and he hadn't found a serious job yet, so he supported his family by doing odd jobs for some big families.

There is only such a brother in Liu's family. As long as she chats with Xiuniang about her natal family, she will definitely talk about her brother. Oh, by the way, Liu married from Outer Village to Xiayang Village more than ten years ago. Yes, this brother is the only one in Liu's family. He not only has to support his own mother-in-law and a few children, but also takes care of two old parents. It is really not easy to think about it.

Xiu Niang had just washed two bowls, when she suddenly raised her head, "Hey, Sixth Sister-in-law, isn't your brother in a foreign country, why do you want to come here to buy and sell forest land?"

Before Liu could react, she looked at Xiuniang, "Huh?"

----------

It was already late when he came back from Mrs. Liu, Chu Ge closed the gate of the courtyard and took the wooden peg, and started tidying up the yard while talking. The things he and Xiu Niang brought back from the town earlier were still piled up.

Xiu Niang went to the stove, looking for firewood to set up a fire, boiled some water for washing later, drove the town for a day, and when she came back, she asked Mrs. Liu to take her over to the house to prepare for the new year's weather. It's neither hot nor cold, or I'd be sweating all over myself.

She waited for the water to boil, then scooped up some and went back to the back room, took off her clothes, wiped her body, washed her face and feet.

After tidying herself up, Xiuniang took out the water and poured it out, then scooped up some more, and called Chu Ge to come in and scrub.

Chu Ge put the rice noodles back into the stove, and then cleaned up some sundries. He listened to the call, and seeing that the yard was almost cleaned up, he went to the inner room.

He entered the room, afraid of the strong wind blowing in, he closed the wooden door by the way. He turned around and saw that Xiu Niang was wearing a thin cloth coat, she turned her back to loosen her hair, and took out a comb to comb it.

Chu Ge's eyes widened, his breathing tightened and his heart beat violently, Xiu Niang turned her back and straightened her waist, following the flickering oil lamp on the cabinet, Xiu Niang's petite figure was fully reflected...

He hurriedly turned his head to the side. Although he had been with Xiu Niang for a long time, he was still not used to being alone in the room with Xiu Niang. It's not that he doesn't care about it, but sometimes it doesn't matter when he doesn't care. Come here for such a scene...

Chu Ge suddenly felt a little hot and tugged at his neckline, thinking that maybe Ji Laoliu's family had been drinking earlier, and he didn't know what happened just now.

Xiu Niang straightened out her hair and pushed it to the front. She was thinking of dividing it into three strands and braiding it. She turned around just in time to see Chu Ge. She knew it when he came in, so she wasn't scared.

She walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, "Chuge, what are you doing, hurry up and wipe yourself off."

Chu Ge didn't think much about it, and passed away with a mumly answer, but he still didn't dare to look at Xiu Niang with his head.

Xiu Niang looked at it and smiled, this is really stupid, they have been together for such a long time, why are they so stingy, but she just cares about it.

She looked at Chu Ge, braided her braids with her hands quickly, stepped forward, and stretched out her hand towards him. She wanted to tease Chu Ge in her heart, because she was not busy with Father Chu's family these days. The thing is that she is busy with the Chinese New Year, and she doesn't have time to develop a good relationship with Chu Ge.

Xiu Niang was facing Chu Ge, with her hands on his shoulders, "Chu Ge, come on, take off your shirt."

Chu Ge was startled, and looked at the little woman in front of him, "Xiu, Xiu Niang?"

Xiu Niang smiled to herself, and took another step forward, "What's wrong, I'm rushing to town today, it's hot and sweaty, I'll wipe your body for you."

Chuge shook his head awkwardly, and stepped back, "No, no need, I will..."

Xiu Niang took a few steps forward in fun, "Why are you wiping your back by yourself, I'll help you."

Chu Ge backed away, half pushing and half hiding, "No, there's no need for Xiu Niang, I, I can do it myself."

Xiu Niang smiled secretly, pretending not to see Chu Ge's blushing ears, and said, "Hey, what are you afraid of, and I don't do anything, just wipe your back for you—oh... "

Chu Ge kept retreating, and Xiu Niang kept moving forward. The two of them circled half a circle in front of the bed. Chu Ge didn't look behind and backed to the end. His foot touched the edge of the bed, and he fell on the bed with Xiu Niang...
