Chapter 36 The Old Man's Nervousness

Yi Xue turned a deaf ear to it, and saw that Mrs. Zhang was also looking at the ox cart and the many things on it in surprise.

"Mother, come help," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhang nodded slightly, and then said to the people outside, "Aunts, come in for tea when you have time."

"Why don't you just make some small fortunes? As for those who show off, pretend to be a big family." The aunt just now snorted coldly.

Mrs. Zhang's complexion is not good-looking, but Yi Xue is not polite, and she will fight back bitterly towards such a person, "Oh, mother, our family has a little money, I bought a bullock cart, and mother, you don't have to walk hard in the future Yes. Mom is free, we are driving the ox cart around the village, some people will definitely not eat grapes and say the grapes are sour", and then looked at the people outside without showing any weakness.

When the aunts heard what Yi Xue said, their faces darkened. Although they didn't know what grapes were, they could hear that they were mocking them for not being able to afford them.

"Showing off your worries, what's the big deal," these people cursed secretly, and walked away one after another.

"You, when did you learn to have a sharp tongue and a sharp mouth?" Zhang complained, her temper has been suppressed by the villagers. In Yi Xue's feeling, Zhang is a typical bun.

"Mother, if you don't give them some color, they will really think we are made of mud," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhang didn't say a word, and silently moved the things into the house. Old man Zhang's grandfather and grandson stood outside, not knowing whether to go in or not.He could tell that there was only one room here, with only the kitchen next to it.

Yi Xue saw old man Zhang, and told Mrs. Zhang about the situation.Mrs. Zhang was very sympathetic, and looked at Zhang Quan with pity, eyes full of tenderness, "Brother Zhang, come in and sit down first. This kid didn't tell me, it's a bit crowded now, and I'm looking for a place for you to live in later."

The old man Zhang hurriedly waved his hands, "Ma'am, don't call me big brother, call me old Zhangtou, I am your servant, don't look for any good place, as long as I can shelter from the wind and rain."

Hearing the old man Zhang call his wife, Zhang was so frightened that he didn't know what to do. No one had ever called him that in his life, and he was a little nervous.

"Okay mother, come in, I have something to say." Yi Xue smiled and pulled Zhang into the room.

After everyone came in, Yi Xue wrote the contract and said, "Master Zhang, this contract is a death contract, it's too late for you to regret it now"

Old man Zhang quickly shook his head, "Girl, old man, I am already old. I don't have many years to live, and I don't think about getting ahead. I just think that it will be enough for my grandson to have enough food in the future. I will sign."

Old man Zhang couldn't write, so he pressed his fingerprints with his grandson Zhang Gou'er.Yi Xue gave 15 taels of silver to old man Zhang to put it away.

"Uncle Zhang, the dog's name is too ugly, I think it will be called Zhang Quan from now on," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Old man Zhang bowed to the ground, "Thank you for naming me, miss."

"Mother, the place we live in is too tight. Uncle Zhang's family will live in the firewood house for a few days, and then we can find a way to build a house," Yi Xue said.

Build a house?Mrs. Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded happily. Although she didn't know how much the Ganoderma lucidum was sold for, Da Ya said that the money must be enough to build a house.

After getting old Zhang's head settled, Yi Xue hurried into the kitchen to cook, and kicked Mrs. Zhang out.It's finally time to have a good meal.Yi Xue was really excited, today was the beginning of a good day.

After packing up the dishes bought in the town, with her ability as a trainee chef, she quickly prepared a table of meals.Although the conditions were limited, she still cooked a few dishes in different ways.

"Mother, let's celebrate, starting from today, we will have a good day," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhang nodded, with tears in the corners of her eyes. How many years have I been looking forward to such a day? Thinking about the past, those days...

The old Zhangtou, grandparents and grandchildren did not dare to come over. They looked at this side with some embarrassment. Yi Xue said with a smile, "Uncle Zhang, we don't have many family members. Come over and eat together."

Uncle Zhang was just thinking about waving his hands, when Zhang said, "Yes, come and eat together, you will be hungry too if you think about it. We are all farmers, and we don't have so many vain gifts."

Only then did Old Man Zhang sit down with his grandson, but his butt was empty on the bench.

"It's time to eat," Sanya said excitedly with her face flushed.

"Ah, this dish is really delicious," Erya said in surprise, pointing to a plate of braised pork.

"This is delicious too," everyone said one after another.Old Zhangtou and Zhang Quan ate extremely nervously, feeling very uncomfortable.No matter how much Mrs. Zhang lets go, everyone eats very slowly here.
