Chapter 120 Not Like a Short-lived Ghost

The food was delicious, Mrs. Qi ate a lot, and told everyone to go for a walk in the yard to digest food, and Mrs. Qi's son got up and went out quickly.

The young couple are very affectionate. It is very puzzling why Mrs. Qi gets angry when she sees this.

Qiao Shi winked at Xi'er, and the two also found an excuse to go to the courtyard.

Because of their young age, the young couple quickly bowed to "Little Aunt"

"Come and sit in my room when you're tired"

"It's not appropriate,"

"You go to the house to accompany your father and the others, and we will accompany your daughter-in-law."

Qi Zixuan entered the house, and Mrs. Qi followed Xi'er to their room. Looking at the plum blossoms on the windowsill, she happily stepped forward to smell them, and then sat on the side admiring them.

Qiao Shi and Xi'er sat on the chair opposite her and asked, "Your mother-in-law doesn't like you?"

Mrs. Qi shyly pursed her lips and smiled, "I am not the candidate she is satisfied with. Zixuan likes me, so she has to accept it."

"Knew it would happen"

"Your belly has been there for months"

"It's been six months, the doctor said, the baby will be born in mid-March"

"Why didn't you go back to your mother's house today?"

"My mother-in-law said that I was pregnant and my mother's home was far away, so it was inconvenient"

"It's not far from here?"

"Hey, whatever my mother-in-law says, I don't want to make her angry"

"You are going to be tired, just rest here for a while, Xi'er and I will go back to the house first"

When the two returned to the room, they saw Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Qi talking in a low voice, and the men were having a heated discussion at the table.

Sitting on the seat, Mrs. Qi didn't even ask her daughter-in-law, even if she pretended not to. It seems that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world are at odds with one another or that.

After eating, while they were drinking tea, Xi'er came to the barn and moved the New Year gift prepared for the Qi family to the living room.

She took Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qi to the vegetable garden again, and picked a large box of red berries. Because the red berries are delicate, when putting them, a layer of cotton cloth was placed on each layer, in case the bumps on the road would disturb the red berries. The berries were damaged.

While no one was looking, she took out a box of cherries from the space, not for anything else but for the child in Mrs. Qi's womb.

I picked two boxes of other melons and fruits in the field. There were workers on duty in the field and asked them to help move them to the living room.

Looking at the gift like a small mountain, Qi Yuan's mouth almost reached his ears.

Mrs. Qi has a calm face. In front of her eyes, no matter how delicious these foods are, they can't catch her eyes.

Xi'er pointed to several boxes of fruit and told Qi Zixuan, "Zixuan, I picked this from the garden for your wife, it's best for her to eat it while she's pregnant."

"Thank you little aunt"

"You're welcome, it's very hard to be pregnant in October. Sister Qiao took care of it before. She didn't eat less fruit from my family when she was pregnant."

"Don't worry, little aunt, Zixuan will let my wife eat the fruit from my little aunt's house every day."

"That's right, if it's not enough, come to my house and take care of it"

Mrs. Qi gave Xi'er a sideways look, and she said in her heart that she is really lenient, and a little girl like you needs to intervene in the affairs of the Qi family, ahhh.

When Xi'er looked at her, she hurriedly smiled, "Don't worry, all the delicious food in my house is only for my daughter-in-law, even if we don't eat it, we will let her eat it."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qi Yuan returned to Pingyuan County with his family and more than half a carload of gifts.

Qiao Shi and Xiao Jian stayed behind, and when they came back, they ran to Xi'er's room, drinking tea and chatting, Ji Kang was also there.

"Sister Xi'er, did you see Mrs. Qi's face just now?"

"I see. She doesn't want to see her daughter-in-law. She is not happy and hates anyone who is good to Mrs. Qi."

"That woman, on the surface, is a good wife and mother, but in fact she is very mean. However, she is still better than the Li family back then."

"Let them go about her family's affairs. As long as life goes on, let's not interfere."

Qiao Shi winked at her, "Do you think she will mess with her daughter-in-law on the day of delivery?"

"She can handle it?"

"Go to the mother and keep the son, the back houses of many big families in the capital are like this"

Xi'er also blinked at her, "I don't think Mrs. Qi looks like a short-lived ghost, probably not."

"I hope so"

While talking, shopkeeper Fang came, "Boss, a man came by the door of our shop, saying that a family member is sick and wants to eat red berries, can you give me some?"

"Where?"

"I asked, but she didn't say"

Xi'er's face sank, "Usually people who come to ask for something have to tell Yuanwei and the situation at home before asking for things. They know that things from our Luo family are expensive, but they dare to come and ask for them. Let's go and have a look." "

As soon as she moved, the others also put on their clothes and followed her to the door of the shop.

I saw a little woman, dressed in tatters, kneeling at the door, and Xi'er could see at a glance that her underwear was made of fine white cotton, and it was still new.

She rolled her eyes, and then came up to the little woman, "Where is your home?"

“Nearby village”

"Who in the family is sick?"

"My daughter has a persistent high fever"

"Doctor please?"

"Please, please,"

"After eating my cranberries, does the fever go away?"

"She sleeps and talks in her sleep, and keeps calling for cranberries"

"Let's go, let's go home with you and have a look. If it's true, I'll have someone send you a basket right away, and I won't ask for your money."

"No, no need, just donate a few."

"Do you know how much a catty of red berries is at this moment?"

The woman bowed her head in silence, tears streaming down her face, and Xi'er suddenly remembered Jingkou Village.

"Your home is in Jingkou Village?"

Asked abruptly, the little woman didn't respond, "How do you know?"

Xi'er suddenly laughed, "Sure enough, I guessed it right. You are so close, almost a hundred miles away. Go back and ask Hua Ruyue why she dare not come to my house again?"

The woman trembled all over, "You were the one who broke her man's leg that night?"

"She's a man? I don't know her. The first time she pretended to be dizzy on the side of the road, I knew she was not a good person. She was cheating. You people in Jingkou Village have all kinds of tricks. What are you trying to do with red berries? Then Pretending to be poisoned? Or pretending to be dead? Want to cheat my Luo family’s money? Or is there another purpose?”

The woman's eyes were evasive, "I don't understand what you're talking about"

"That's good, I happen to be free today, I can go back with you to see your daughter, let's go"

"No, I don't want it, can't I?"

The woman got up and ran south. Xi'er, Ji Kang, Xiao Jian, and Qiao Shi had already seen a carriage waiting for the woman in the distance.

The little woman ran over and got into the carriage, and the carriage immediately drove south.

Ji Kang asked, "Sister, how did you find out that she is a liar?"

"Look at her undershirt. It's old on the outside, but the undershirt is new and made of fine cotton. What do you think this kind of person is?"

Ji Kang looked at Xiao Jian and Qiao Shi, "Did you all see it?"

The two nodded, and Ji Kang was hit again. He was really bad at knowing people, his sister's eyes were really poisonous, and his ability to argue people was really strong. He had to admit that he was not good at this, so he had to follow up My sister learns.

Xiao Jian stared at Xi'er with strange eyes, "Did you go to Jingkou Village a long time ago?"

"Yeah, I will definitely check and find out the things and things that are not good for my family. Only by knowing what is known can I win every battle. I will do my best to eliminate hidden dangers first."

"Haha, you know each other well. If you were a man, you would outshine all men in this world."

"Exaggeration, go back, it's too cold outside"

"Those grandchildren are not idle during the Chinese New Year. It's really not worrying. Let's go, let's go home. You young couples should go back too."

When Xi'er returned home, Mrs. Luo asked, but she didn't say much, she just said that she was a poor man and sent away with something.
