Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 113 Gossip
Xiangxiu's mother and daughter thanked Wanwan and moved their things back home. They also drove the ox cart back to the yard and tied it up to start cooking. They were very obedient in the next life. They really watched the house all morning at home. Candied haws are very happy!

After lunch, they ran out in the next life. Wanwan and Baishou took the cart to the yard, fetched water and cleaned it carefully. If they really want to sell ice powder in the township, they can only put it on the cart Take it easy, too dirty on the cart will always affect the business, so clean it up.

When the water stains on the cart are dry, Baishou puts a layer of hay on the top of the shop, and then puts ice powder in a bucket, and puts other things on the top together in a basin, and it looks clean. How good it is!
The cart was cleared out, and the two went out with their backs on their backs.Today they have to prepare the pigweed for tomorrow, so they have time to sell ice powder tomorrow, and each of them carried two backs of betel. On the way, they met Da Zhiniang by chance, who knew that Da Zhiniang stared at her with a sullen face.

Wan Wan was very puzzled, could something have been exposed?But she didn't hear any movement in the village?

On the way down the mountain, she met Yuan Baoniang who was going up the mountain again, and Yuan Baoniang mysteriously pulled her aside.

"What happened to your family?"

Yuan Baoniang's first sentence blinded her.

"Nothing!"

Yuan Baoniang stared at her and asked, "It's nothing? Do you know that people in the village have been talking about your family these two days!"

Wan Wan frowned, and said, "What are you talking about?"

Yuan Baoniang looked left and right to see if there was no one there, and then she lowered her voice and said, "Did your sister come here a few days ago, saying that your sister and Li Dazhi are here!"

Wan Wan's right eyelid twitched, and asked in a lower voice than her: "What are you talking about?"

"These people are talking nonsense and Silla. I don't know exactly what it is. Anyway, someone saw Li Dazhi fall into the river, and then saw your sister go back quietly after it was dark. She was not wearing her own clothes. The little clothes..."

Wan Wan raised her head abruptly, how did news about Wang Xiaocao wearing her clothes come out?
Yuan Baoniang didn't know about this either, so Wanwan told her what happened that day, of course saving Wang Xiaocao's throwing herself into her arms.Yuan Baoniang also became worried when she heard this: "I guess someone saw something when you sent her back that day."

After thinking about it, Wan Wan felt the same way, someone asked her about that day before, but that person didn't say a word about the clothes, would it be seen by others?Her mother would definitely not be so stupid as to say it by herself.

Thinking of this, her eyelids twitched again, seeing Da Zhiniang's expression was very ugly just now, could it be that she knew about this?

After Yuan Baoniang heard this, she was hesitant to speak, and finally, after being questioned by Wanwan, she hesitated and said, "Actually, what the village is talking about is not only this, but also... It turns out that the situation of the two of them was a coincidence, and someone guessed that your sister and Dazhi They fell into the river together... Later, somehow, it turned out that your family intended to marry your sister to Li Dazhi."

She thought of Wanwan back then. Li Dazhi was in good condition and good-looking, and many girls liked him. At the beginning, Wanwan's mother wanted to marry Wanwan to Li Dazhi, but it didn't work; maybe this time she would use this Something to facilitate Li Dazhi and her sister.

Peasant women like to gossip and speculate when they have nothing to do. From a deduction point of view, this is possible.

Yuan Baoniang looked at Wanwan carefully, and comforted her: "If your mother and your sister really don't have such thoughts, you don't have to worry about it."

Wanwan frowned, and she was worried that the girls would change their minds if they knew about these discussions in the village!

"Also, I think based on what you said just now, Da Zhiniang probably knows about it." After thinking about it, Yuan Baoniang still expressed her opinion: "However, your sister also fell into the river by accident. , Li Dazhi kindly saved her, the two of them have nothing to do with each other, so there is nothing to worry about..."

Wanwan just wanted to spit out a few foul breaths and cursed at his mother loudly.

It would have been fine if the two of them had nothing to do, the bad thing was Wang Xiaocao's initiative, and her thoughts on Li Dazhi, but I can't say these things, it's so fucking uncomfortable to be bored in my heart!
It seems that Dazhi Niang knew the truth of the matter, and when she thought about it, she suddenly felt that Li Dazhi looked good, and his behavior was nothing more than that, didn't he know that there were some things that could not be said!
After thanking Yuan Baoniang, Wanwan went down the mountain, seeing the two of them talking, Baishou had already returned home, and as soon as he stepped into the gate, Wanwan's face darkened.

Her mother and Wang Xiaocao are sitting in the main room, and the next life is helping to pour water for them.

Seeing her coming back, Baishou hurried over to take her back, and said at the same time: "Mother and Xiaocao just came."

"What are you talking about?" Wanwan put down his back, and helped Baishou carry it into the kitchen. In fact, Baishou was only carrying it, and she followed behind.

"I didn't say the details, but I just said that I wanted to discuss something with you." Baishou looked at her and said, "You go, I'm going to cook pig food."

Wan Wan nodded and went out of the kitchen. Her mother sat in the main room and stretched her neck to look at the kitchen. Seeing that she finally came out, she immediately got up and called her with a smile, "Second Sister is back from cutting pigweed?"

Wanwan glanced at Wang Xiaocao who was standing up, she seemed not in a good mood, she nodded to her mother, sat down on the stool in the main room, next life immediately brought her a bowl of water in.

Wanwan smiled at him, picked up the bowl and took two big gulps.She has to lower the fire first!
"Mom, what's the matter here?"

Seeing her speak so straight to the point, without even turning the corner, Wanwan's mother's expression was a little unnatural, she used to discuss with her father even if she had anything to do, otherwise she would tell Wang Li, how could she look for Wanwan.

But although Wanwan is not as obedient as before, sometimes she is aggressive when talking to her, but she has to admit that her head is really bright.

After thinking about it, he directly stated the purpose of this visit: "...I didn't know what was going on, so she asked me when Xiaocao got engaged... Later I also asked, and no one in the village knew Only one or two people knew about this matter, and I made excuses to cover it up. Didn’t I say that no one knew about it at the beginning? Why do people in Wang’s Village know about it now?”

It turned out that one day a neighbor asked her mother, half-jokingly, when Wang Xiaocao got engaged. The man heard from a relative in the Yangjia Village at the market that he had made an appointment with the boy from the Li family here.

Her mother was panicked at the time, and this matter had spread to such an extent, but she didn't know what the people in Yangjia Village knew, so she had no choice but to ask Wanwan to find out. If people really know, then We have to find a way to solve it!

It's not too late to do this!

Wanwan told the two of them what he heard, and then asked them: "Have you told others about this? Or have you yelled loudly at home?"

Wan Wanniang shook her head, since that day, the family has kept silent about this matter, worried that nothing happened for a few days, thinking that this matter is over, unexpectedly, it was still known.

"It must be that Li Dazhi told his mother that his mother didn't want to be responsible and wanted to ruin our Xiaocao's reputation, so she said it on purpose." Wanwan's mother said angrily.

Wan Wan shook his head, now the villagers only guessed that the two fell into the river and didn't know what happened on the bank, which meant that Da Zhi Niang didn't tell it.But thinking about Da Zhiniang's temper, if she knew the truth, she might really do such a thing.That shouldn't be true, but when she was on the mountain, she obviously had an expression of knowing everything.

On this point, Wan Wan is a little confused.

"People in the village are guessing wildly now. If they really know the truth of the matter, they will not be as peaceful as they are now."

Wanwanniang nodded in thought, and then asked: "Then what should we do now?"

"What can be done is just speculation, don't worry about it, it will be fine after a while!"

"But what if the news gets out?" Wang Xiaocao on the side began to cry, very worried.

Wanwan didn't even bother to talk to her anymore, so he made it up to himself, and naturally he couldn't hear what he said: "Then what do you want? Go to Li Dazhi and ask her to marry you?"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaocao cried even more sadly.Her mother frowned impatiently and felt aggrieved for her daughter.

Wanwan looked at the sun setting on the western mountain outside, the yard should be cooler, took up the bowl and drank all the water in it, and sat at the door of the main room, chewing melon seeds and looking inside curiously.

The melon seeds were bought at the market today.

Hearing the sound of sobbing, she felt uncomfortable all over, stood up and walked to the door, grabbed a few melon seeds from Mr. Lai's hand and peeled them irritably.

In the next life, he saw that there were not a few melon seeds left in his hand, and immediately tightened his hands, and sat in the middle of the yard with a stool in his hand, staring at Wanwan vigilantly.

She suddenly wanted to laugh!

Just at the door, a figure appeared. Xiangxiu had already taken off her morning clothes and changed into a new coarse cloth, her hair was pulled up, a wooden hairpin was inserted in it, a cloth was wrapped around her waist, and she was holding a bowl in her hand. At the moment, she looks a bit like a rural woman, but her pair of beautiful phoenix eyes are still charming.

Seeing Wanwan at the entrance of the main room, he immediately smiled and said: "Wife Baishou is here, I made some rough snacks here, I would like to invite you to try."

Wanwan was stunned for a moment, this person was quite enthusiastic.

Smiling and walking over, there are a few square pastries in the bowl, they look pretty good, like those sold in pastry shops in the market, I don’t know how they taste?
"Ah, this dim sum is so beautifully made!" Wan Wan praised.

"Where, it's made of glutinous rice. It's quite ordinary. You don't want to give it a try." Xiangxiu said with a smile.

"How can I dislike it, this snack looks delicious." Then she went into the kitchen and took out a bowl, put a few pieces of pastry into the bowl, followed her buttocks in the next life and looked at the bowl with shining eyes.

"Try it, if you like it, I will send some over next time I make it."

"Thank you so much, you are really capable!"

"Where, I only study when I have nothing to do. I will leave first if I have something to do at home."

"Yeah, don't sit still!"

"No, come another day!"

This is also a watcher.

Wanwan sent her to the door and then entered the kitchen, took a piece of chopsticks to give to the next life, and then gave the bowl to Baishou, before she could walk out of the kitchen, she heard the courtyard door slamming, and someone strode into the courtyard.

Going out to see, Da Zhi Niang was standing in the yard angrily, staring at Wang Xiaocao in the main room.
