Chapter 175
After Mrs. Zheng left, Zheng Xianglan asked Chen Xin, who was feeding the goat milk for the general, "Is there no fleas on the general?"

Chen Xin looked at her innocently: "Mom, the general is only a little old, and his body is covered with lanugo. How could there be fleas? Maybe there are fleas in grandma's house, and they got into her clothes. By the way, these few days God, please pay attention, if the fleas from their house come to our house, it will be troublesome."

Zheng Xianglan didn't hear anything wrong with Chen Xin's words.

Rural people are not so particular about it, and they don't care about itching occasionally.Although Zheng Xianglan felt strange, she couldn't think of a reason, and quickly put this matter behind her.

From an angle she couldn't see, Chen Yu and Chen Xin exchanged glances, and each secretly smiled.

After feeding the general with goat milk, Chen Xin hugged it and said to Zheng Xiaomei: "Today you helped me hide the microscope from grandma and the others. I want to thank you."

Zheng Xiaomei was very embarrassed, because her mother just came to Chen's house to make a fuss today, and said she would come again tomorrow.

She knew that her mother was here to ask for money, and she also knew that the people in this family were not happy with their family members.

"I didn't think too much about it, but I just thought I couldn't let them see it. I was afraid they would steal it and sell it to you while you weren't paying attention. That looks like an expensive item." Zheng Xiaomei said cautiously.

Chen Xin said: "It doesn't matter whether that thing is expensive or not. I am a very simple person. If you treat me well, I will treat you well. If you treat me badly, I will treat you badly. If you mess with me, don't blame me for giving you money." Go back. You helped me guard my things today, I am very grateful, and when you go home, I will give you a gift to express my gratitude."

Zheng Xiaomei clasped the corners of her clothes with both hands, like a child who has done something wrong, and said in a voice not much louder than a mosquito's voice: "My mother didn't let me go back, so I dare not go back, she will beat me if I go back."

Chen Xin didn't hear clearly, so she asked again: "What did you just say?"

When Zheng Xiaomei answered for the second time, Chen Xin finally heard clearly.

She looked at Zheng Xiaomei in surprise: "Then your mother never told you to go back, so why don't you go back?"

Zheng Xiaomei's tears rolled out without warning.

Chen Xin frowned: "Why are you crying?"

Zheng Xiaomei wiped away her tears, and said almost pleadingly: "Sister Xinxin, can I not go home?"

Chen Xin: "...."

She said this in the main room, so the whole family heard their conversation.

After Zheng Xiaomei finished asking Chen Xin, she turned to look at the other four members of the Chen family.

As if Chen Licai and Zheng Xianglan didn't hear her words, one turned their heads and the other lowered their heads, avoiding her sight.

Chen Yang is still young, it's not his turn to take care of these matters.

Chen Yu frowned in an instant: "Zheng Xiaomei, do you think our family is easy to bully, and even you want to be bullied too? It's your mother who made you stay at our house?"

Zheng Xiaomei gritted her teeth anxiously, and said all the thoughts in her heart: "No, it's not that my mother told me to stay at your house, it's because I don't want to go back. My parents and my brothers are one Hit me if it’s not right, I’m afraid to go back. I can help, I can wash and cook, I can kill pigweed, I can feed pigs and chickens, and I can pick the flowers you want, Sister Xinxin, Brother Chen every day I'm going to the market, I don't have so much time to do the work in the field, I can help out, I can do all these. I am, I am... I also want to learn to read and write like Chen Sange."
