Rebirth 1991: Hello, Husband

Chapter 29
"Impossible." Zhao Chunmei vetoed Zhang Lanxin's guess without thinking, "Now is the time for these chickens to lay eggs."

"Could it be that the eggs laid by these chickens were eaten by weasels?" Zhang Lanxin boldly guessed.

Zhao Chunmei threw the chickens she was holding in the yard, and slapped Zhang Lanxin on the head, "You are stupid, if a weasel wants to eat it, it will also eat chickens, will it catch eggs and eat them?"

Zhang Lanxin was dizzy from Zhao Chunmei's slap on the forehead, and her face was full of grievances.

Bai Wei, who was sitting on the kang, heard the conversation between the mother and daughter from the courtyard through the wooden window.

He kept giggling in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, he was still picking up the beans in the dustpan with his head down.

After a while, Zhang Yiming and Zhang Deren walked in.

The father and son sat opposite Bai Wei, and Zhang Yiming picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Zhang Deren, and then poured a cup for Bai Wei, and put it in front of her, "Come on, cousin Wei Wei, Drink some tea to quench your thirst."

Bai Wei stopped picking up the beans, looked up at Zhang Yiming who was sitting opposite, and nodded with a faint smile, "Thank you, cousin."

Then he took a sip of the tea on the table.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chunmei and Zhang Lanxin walked in from the door at this time.

Both mother and daughter had sullen faces, as if someone owed them money.

Bai Wei naturally knew why the mother and daughter were unhappy, but she acted as if she hadn't seen it, put down the teacup in her hand, and continued to pick up the beans in the dustpan.

Standing in front of Bai Wei, Zhao Chunmei saw that she had been buried in the beans in the dustpan, a complicated look flashed in her eyes, and she asked seriously.

"Wei Wei, let me ask you, have you picked eggs from the yard?"

Bai Wei raised her head, looked at Zhao Chunmei in a daze, and said stupidly, "No."

"No?" Apparently Zhao Chunmei didn't believe what Bai Wei said, and said displeasedly, "How could the eggs in the courtyard disappear without that?"

Bai Wei shrugged and said innocently, "How do I know this? I've never been to the courtyard."

Zhang Lanxin, who was standing opposite, saw Bai Wei's innocent face, and couldn't help but say, "Okay, Bai Wei, don't play dumb for me here, you are the only one for this time Stay at home and pick beans, everyone has gone to work in the fields, if you didn’t pick the eggs in the yard, who would pick them?”

"Oh." Bai Wei responded in a low voice, nodded and said, "Then according to my cousin, whoever stayed at home picked up the eggs in the yard?"

"That's right." Zhang Lanxin clasped her arms around her chest and replied triumphantly.

"Hehe." Bai Wei sneered, "During this period of time, why did my cousin go to the yard when she came back at noon? Could it be that you picked up the eggs in the yard and hid them, so you came here to frame them now? What about me?"

After hearing what Bai Wei said, Zhao Chunmei, Zhang Deren and Zhang Yiming turned their attention to Zhang Lanxin.

Zhang Lanxin saw Zhao Chunmei and Zhang Deren cast their eyes on her one after another, so she knew that Bai Wei was deliberately trying to bring this matter to her, so she quickly shook her head and explained.

"Dad, Mom, don't listen to her nonsense. I went to the yard at noon just to see if the chickens had laid eggs. I really didn't pick up eggs in the yard."
