Chapter 96

"...Oh." Qi Yan hesitated for a moment, pursed his thin lips, and obediently slowed down his eating speed.

Xiaobao and Taotao also obediently slowed down their eating speed.

Du Xuan nodded with satisfaction, turned around and left the room.

In the kitchen, Chen Jinniang was packing up what could be cleaned up, "Why did you come out? You should have some food with them first, you've been tired all day."

Du Xuan shook her head, "I'm too hungry, so I won't eat any more. You should go to the village head's house before the soup and rice are cooked."

Chen Jinniang nodded, but her expression was a bit hesitant. Du Xuan sighed after seeing it, weighed two catties of meat, took two blood cakes, and took the justice scale borrowed from the village head's house.

"Let's go together, shall we?"

After hearing this, Chen Jinniang breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face, "Okay, I'm really a bit..."

Liu Dabao and Xiaoguai were sitting in the yard, and they had cleaned the bench they had used to butcher pigs before, and the two brothers were sitting on the bench, holding two blood-filled cakes and chewing deliciously.

Seeing them coming out, she bared her teeth and smiled, "Aunt Xuan! This is so delicious!"

But Du Xuan didn't tell them to eat more, instead she told them, "Eat less, there will be delicious food later."

"En!" Liu Dabao nodded vigorously.

The two brothers watched Du Xuan and Chen Jinniang walk out of the yard.

Liu Xiaoguai's eyes sparkled, "Brother, can we still eat such delicious food in the future?"

Liu Dabao's eyes are also bright, "Yes! As long as I obediently work hard with Uncle Qi and Aunt Xuan! Xiaoguai, I can see that Aunt Xuan and Uncle Qi are very soft-hearted people. As long as I can help Do some work, they won't leave us hungry."

"Yeah!" Liu Xiaoguai nodded vigorously, but became a little distressed, "But... But I'm useless, I don't know how to do any work, brother, am I a burden to you?"

Liu Dabao patted his younger brother's head, "What nonsense, brother only has you as a relative, nothing else. How could it be a drag?"

Liu Dabao thought about it carefully, "Although you are still young and can't help with the work, you can take care of Xiaobao. I can see that Aunt Xuan and Uncle Qi love Xiaobao very much. Xiaobao can't see , It’s quite painful in the first place, you just need to take care of Xiaobao and protect him in the future. Aunt Xuan and Uncle Qi will not treat us badly.”

Liu Xiaoguai nodded vigorously, "I will definitely protect him!"

Of course Du Xuan didn't know what kind of decision the two brothers made due to her kindness.

She jingled and carried a scale to the door of the village chief's house, and asked Chen Jinniang to knock on the door.

"Shall I knock?" Chen Jinniang was a little uncertain.

"Well, you knock." Du Xuan glanced at several courtyards around the village chief's house, but the lights hadn't been turned off yet, "Knock and call for someone, otherwise, just like Xue Liangjun and I went out at such a big night Come here, and then spread it out, that's really..."

Du Xuan shook her head helplessly, "Knock, so that people will know that we came together and returned the scale. To be honest, if I hadn't asked you to come here today, I probably wouldn't even enter the courtyard door by myself. of."

"That's right." Chen Jinniang quickly understood Du Xuan's concerns, and raised her hand to knock on the door.

"Hey, I'm here, I'm here!" Mrs. Zhou was obviously still waiting, not sleeping at all, and answered immediately as soon as the door knocked.

He quickly opened the door, "Xuanniang is here, huh? Jinniang is coming too?"

Chen Jinniang smiled a little embarrassedly, "Yes, Aunt Zhou, didn't I delay you?"

"No, we are preparing to eat, do you want to eat something together?" Mrs. Zhou asked, this is just a polite word, everyone knows that many households in the village eat meat today, it's hard Buy some meat to eat, no one wants to be shared by outsiders.

Chen Jinniang waved her hands again and again, "No, no, I just came here with Xuanniang to give you... a scale."

"Oh, you are so polite." Seeing the meat in the basket in Du Xuan's hand, Mrs. Zhou smiled until her eyes narrowed.

Du Xuan said in a low voice, "I also made some food by myself. I made it by pouring pig's blood and glutinous rice into casings. It's already steamed, but it's still warm. You can eat it directly. You can cut it up and fry it before frying it." That's fine, Aunt Zhou should try something new."

Du Xuan handed out what was in her hand, Zhou took it with a smile, "Oh, you are so kind."

"Aunt Zhou, don't be polite to me. It is thanks to you that I remembered the matter of Tian before, and the matter between me and my uncle's family is also thanks to Aunt Zhou's help. I remember everything..." Du Xuan said , the voice is very gentle, and the tone is very sincere.

Just listening to it brings comfort to the heart.

"You girl, you really remember your kindness..." Zhou sighed, "That's right, otherwise you wouldn't have worked like a cow in that house for the sake of family affection from everyone in Du. Don't worry, there will be more in the future." Whatever I can do to help, I will do my best."

Du Xuan smiled, and said with some embarrassment, "Aunt Zhou, to tell you the truth, there are really some things."

Zhou raised her eyebrows, "Tell me about it."

"It's not me, it's Jinniang. I have a good relationship with Jinniang. I'm at my place today. Aunt Zhou must have heard about the disturbance of the Qian family in the Sun family, right?" Du Xuan said.

Chen Jinniang was a little embarrassed and nervous.After all, the long-standing inherent concepts are there, and family scandals cannot be exposed.

Mrs. Zhou glanced at Chen Jinniang with a half-smile, and after a while, said, "What do you want me to do?"

"It's not that I want Aunt Zhou to help. It's just that if the Sun family really embarrasses Jinniang in the future, Aunt Zhou can just say something fair." Du Xuan thought for a while, and pulled Chen Jinniang's hands, "You see, Jinniang has been working for Jinniang all these years. My son earns money to subsidize the family, what has become of it."

Chen Jinniang's hands were deformed due to holding the needle and thread in the same posture for a long time, so it goes without saying that there were calluses and cracks on the hands.

Zhou took a look, but didn't make a sound.

Du Xuan knew what Zhou was thinking in her heart, so she immediately said, "I know, you think that there are many women who do work and farm land, and their hands are not good-looking. It may not be a big deal for Jinniang. It's just Well, if Aunt Zhou is free, she can take a look at Sun Da's daughter-in-law's hand, and she will understand why Jin Niang is worthless."

"Oh." Zhou sighed. Of course, she has met the daughter-in-law of Master Sun. She not only looks better than Chen Jinniang, but also has more flesh than Chen Jinniang. Of course, her hands are not as wasteful as Chen Jinniang's, "Okay, I see. .You..."

Mrs. Zhou shook her head, "I don't live a good life, and I'm always afraid that others will not live well?"

She thought Du Xuan would take the opportunity to make a fool of herself and pretend to be pitiful.

Unexpectedly, Du Xuan laughed, and shook her head at her, "Aunt Zhou, my family is still killing pigs today, life is not bad, and it will get better and better in the future."

"Okay, I see, you guys go back." Zhou waved his hand and said.

An awkward invitation suddenly sounded from behind her, "You, you... Would you like to come in and have something together?"

Whoa! ?
