Chapter 168 What's the matter
"Ah, Xu Xu's mother, you bought a lot of vegetables today, do you have any customers?"

Xu Xu's mother rode a small electric donkey, and when she passed by the sausage noodle shop, Auntie Xiuhua, the proprietress of the sausage noodle shop, saw her and asked enthusiastically.

Xu Xu's mother stopped the little e-donkey, and raised her hand to gather the wind-disturbed hair behind her ears. Under the sun, Xu Xu's mother's hair was mixed with a few strands of silver.

"Oh, it's not a festive season, what kind of guests are there?" Xu Xu's mother smiled a little tiredly: "It's all Xu Xu's father. He woke up early this morning and suddenly wanted to eat some pig's feet. I think he looks like a pig." What about the feet. No, I’ve bought everything, so I’ll simply buy some other vegetables so as not to have to go to the vegetable market all the time.”

"That's right, grocery shopping is quite annoying." Aunt Xiuhua felt the same way, "Me too, I go to the market every day and don't know what to buy every day."

After changing the subject, Auntie Xiuhua said again: "However, it's hot now, so it's better not to stock up too much food, it's not fresh, it's not good for your health."

"I know, I've just been a little lazy these days." Xu Xu's mother raised her eyebrows, and said to the owner of the sausage noodle shop, "Let's go, I'll be back first."

"Hey wait!"

Aunt Xiuhua rushed out of the shop, ran to Xu Xu's mother, and asked in a low voice, "Has Xu Xu not come back yet?"

"no."

"Oh, why have you been here for so long? It's been three months. What are you doing here?"

"I'm on a business trip." Xu Xu's mother twitched the corners of her lips, and said, "She said she wanted to open a branch, and she was going to investigate. Anyway, I don't understand, so let her go."

Xu Xu's mother raised her eyes and looked at the people on the street, "What's the matter? Xiuhua, you have something to do with my family, Xu Xu?"

"It's like this, my husband's family has a cousin..."

"Stop, stop." As soon as Xu Xu's mother heard Auntie Xiuhua's words, she knew what was going on, and Xu Xu's mother smiled helplessly: "I can't be her master now."

"That's right, kids these days have big ideas." Aunt Xiuhua looked at Xu Xu's mother unwillingly, "Why don't I send you a picture of my nephew first?"

"No, no, no." Xu Xu's mother waved her hand feebly, "Wen Xu said what kind of career should be the main focus, and you should concentrate on your career, so it won't delay your nephew, but thank you, Aunt Xiuhua."

Looking at the neighbor next door who was riding a small electric donkey without looking back, Aunt Xiuhua sighed, "It's a pity."

"It's a pity."

It's past the restaurant now, and the store is not too busy.The rice noodle shop owner shook the rag in his hand, hung it on one piece, and then whispered to his wife: "Wen Xu probably has something wrong."

"What?" Auntie Xiuhua looked at her husband in surprise, "No way, don't talk nonsense, if the Wen family listens to this, they won't have any conflicts with you."

"I'm just telling the truth." The rice noodle shop owner raised his eyebrows with a look on his face that you couldn't see clearly, "We haven't known that person Wen Xu for long, but anyone with eyes can tell that he is A mother. If nothing happened, how could she not show up for so long? It's been three months."

"No way." Auntie Xiuhua still didn't believe her husband's judgment, "That child Xu Xu doesn't look like a troublemaker, what could happen to her?"

"Then how do I know, I'm not her father." The owner of the sausage noodle shop stirred the rice milk in the bucket, "Don't believe me, don't tell me anything else, you can see the state of the old Wen couple. When Xu was in Dingcheng, those couples were so proud, but now, I don't need to say more."

"That's right. In the past few months, the couple have aged a lot." Auntie Xiuhua said, "Xu Xu's mother has gray hair, which was not the case before."

"Yeah, why did these two people suddenly age so much? It must be worrying. Why worry? It's not for money, it's for people." shop, "Their flower shop and farm are doing well now, and they bought the No. 2 storefront and the house above it last month, so it must not be worrying about money."

"hiss--"

Seeing that his wife agreed with his words, the owner of the sausage noodle shop sighed, "How else can I say it's a pity."
-
Xu Xu's mother didn't know that someone was talking about her.

Even if you know it, you can't care about these things.

She went upstairs with the vegetables she bought, tidied up, and was about to take off the apron from the hook.

At this moment, there was movement at the door.

Xu Xu's mother turned to look at Xu Xu's father who was changing shoes at the door, "Why are you back at this time? Isn't the farm busy?"

"I'm the boss, why am I standing there all the time?"

Xu Xu's father changed his shoes, went to Xu Xu's mother, and took the apron from her hand.

Xu Xu's mother said dissatisfiedly: "You man, what's going on now, can you die without stabbing?"

"I don't want to quarrel with you." Xu Xu's father put on an apron, washed his hands, and began to pick up the vegetables that Xu Xu's mother bought, "You go downstairs to look at the shop, you don't need to help the kitchen, it's in the way."

As soon as Xu Xu's mother heard this, she became angry, "Are you the boss? I am also the boss. Why should I hang around downstairs?"

Look at what Xu Xu's father said, it's like Xu Xu's mother is a kitchen killer.

But when Xuxu's father is not coming back from the farm, Xuxu's mother is responsible for cooking.

You two don't like me, and I don't like you either.

The kitchen quickly quieted down, except for the occasional sound of water when Xu Xu's mother picked and washed vegetables, and the bang and bang sound when Xu Xu's father chopped pig's feet.

The two stopped talking.

An unspeakable silence spread between the two.

It wasn't until lunch was ready that Xu Xu's father said, "Go get someone to eat."

"Ah."

The downstairs staff came up quickly.

However, several employees soon discovered that neither the boss nor the boss's wife seemed very happy today.

But this is nothing new, they have often done this in the past two or three months.

Ugh.

Maybe this is a mid-life crisis, and the two probably quarreled again.

I really miss the days when the little boss was here, if only the little boss didn't travel on business.

Several employees finished their meal in a hurry and went downstairs.

Xu Xu's father was holding a glass of white wine in his hand, silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xu Xu's mother looked at the white wine in Xu Xu's father's hand, and suddenly said: "On the tribute table, have you poured the wine?"

"Huh?" Xu Xu's father frowned, and looked at Xu Xu's mother strangely, "Didn't you let her drink?"

"Give her some."

Xu Xu's mother sighed silently, she picked up the chopsticks, but didn't know which dish to hold for a long time.

In the end, Xu Xu's mother put down her chopsticks, "I don't have any appetite, I'm going to lie down for a while."
