Chapter 194 The Strange Woman Xiu'e

On the way back, Lin Xiu excitedly shook the purse in his hand, "Sister-in-law, look, there are so many left."

Seeing Lin Xiu happy like a child, Cheng Xia was also very happy. After taking the embroidery needles, threads and materials bought by Lin Xiu, Cheng Xia looked at them curiously for a moment, "What are you going to embroider? You bought so much."

Lin Xiu pointed one by one and said, "This is a shoe, this is a handkerchief, these are two small screens, and this is a child's hat. As for this," Lin Xiu pulled out some bright red embroidery thread and smiled ambiguously. "This is used to embroider pillows for my eldest brother and sister-in-law."

Cheng Xia blushed instantly, and gave her a cool look, thinking that Lin Xiu was no longer serious.

Just as he was about to tickle Lin Xiu, he heard Du Zhong who was driving outside the carriage say, "I was at the grocery store just now. Is the boss you are looking for named Shao?"

Cheng Xia lifted the curtain and nodded, "Yes."

"What does he look like?" Du Zhong asked hesitantly, as if he was afraid of Cheng Xia's suspicion, and quickly explained, "I was thinking that there don't seem to be many Shao surnames in Chong'an County, so I'm just curious."

Yeah?Sitting next to Eucommia, Cheng Xia stared firmly into his eyes, not letting go of his expression, "I don't know what Boss Shao looks like, because he has scars all over his body, and he can't tell what he looks like at all."

Du Zhong's driving hand trembled, and after a long time, he smiled slightly, "Why did you get hurt like this?"

Cheng Xia shrugged, "It looks like it was burned by a fire."

Du Zhong's movements were stunned for a moment, until the horse went astray to eat weeds by the side of the road, Du Zhong came back to his senses, and smiled apologetically at Cheng Xia, "It's really a sad thing."

Cheng Xia took a deep look at Du Zhong, didn't say any more, and went straight into the carriage.

When they arrived at Qingxian Village, Du Zhong said that he had to go directly back to Huangdun Village. Cheng Xia felt that he was weird, and just about to ask a few questions, Du Zhong told herself seriously, "Miss Cheng, stay away from my elder brother for a while, otherwise You're going to have trouble."

"An accident?" Cheng Xia looked puzzled, "What's the matter?"

Seeing her rare blank look, Du Zhong thought it was quite interesting. He covered his lips and coughed lightly, comparing Cheng Xia's clothes up and down, "You look like this, I'm afraid my elder brother will turn into a wolf."

When Cheng Xia reacted, Eucommia had already jumped into the carriage and ran away without a trace.

Cheng Xia clenched her fists tightly, her teeth itching with anger, damn Eucommia, don't even think about getting a wife in the future.

After entering the bamboo house, I found that Yang Dalang and Xiaolong were not there, and I didn't know what to do.Cheng Xia asked Lin Xiu to prepare for cooking first. She was going to deliver the medicine given by the shopkeeper to Dahua, and also went to see what the Cheng family had become now.

Seeing that Cheng Xia was about to go out, Lin Xiu hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, I think it's going to be a bad day again, why don't you bring an umbrella."

Cheng Xia looked up, waved her hands indifferently, "I'll go back as soon as I go, I should be fine."

In the end, before she could reach Cheng's yard, God slapped her in the face. Cheng Xia watched the pattering rain falling, so she could only speed up her steps to protect the three packs of medicine and enter Cheng's door.

Once inside, Cheng Xia saw Dahua kneeling in the corner of the wall, Cheng Xia frowned, what was this for?Facing the wall and thinking about it?

Cheng Xia went straight to help Dahua up, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Dahua turned her head and came to Cheng Xia to see it clearly. Tears were all over Dahua's face. Cheng Xia looked around and saw Mrs. Gu came out of the room when she heard the voice. She saw that it was Cheng Xia, leaning against the door frame and said in a strange way, "Damn girl, you dare to enter the house, and you are still dressed in such fancy clothes, which man are you going to hook up with?"

The words were so dirty, Cheng Xia didn't bother to talk to her, when she heard a hoarse cough coming from the back room, she hurried past Gu to look in, but Gu just closed the door of the back room and said in a stern tone, "What are you looking at?" look!"

"Mother?" Cheng Xia tentatively called inside, and upon hearing Mrs. Zhang's hoarse response, Cheng Xia directly pulled Mrs. Gu who was blocking the door away, pushed the door open and entered the inner room, only to see Mrs. Zhang looking haggard. Lying on the bed, coughing unceasingly, Cheng Xia felt distressed when she saw Mrs. Zhang, she hadn't seen her for a few days, why did Mrs. Zhang become so haggard, "Mom, have you caught a cold?"

Mrs. Zhang held Cheng Xia's hand and forced a smile, "On and off, for several days."

"Then why don't you ask the doctor to take a look? Grab the medicine."

"What kind of medicine?" Before Cheng Xia finished speaking, Gu interrupted in a cold voice, "The family's money is used to support outsiders like you, and it's just delusional to expect to have money to see a doctor."

"If you want to talk about outsiders, grandma is right." Cheng Xia said angrily.

Gu's eyes rolled, and only then did she notice that Cheng Xia was still holding three packs of medicine in her hand, and she grabbed it directly, "What is this?"

Cheng Xia pulled the thing back with a cold face, "This is for my sister-in-law, what's the use of you snatching it?"

"Your sister-in-law? It's a waste for her to eat these things without laying eggs," Gu yelled outside at the top of her voice, "Xiu'e, Xiu'e, come here."

Cheng Xia was stupefied when she saw a girl with yellow face, thin face, messy hair and buck teeth entered the room, she smiled honestly while wiping her hands on the apron, "Grandma, what's the matter?"

Gu grabbed the three packs of medicine and stuffed them directly into the girl's hand, "Your little sister bought it for you."

The girl looked up shyly and timidly at Cheng Xia, Cheng Xia shuddered at that pretentiousness, she wiped her hands vigorously, took the medicine over devoutly, and mumbled shyly He said, "Thank you little sister."

Thank you sister!Seeing that she turned to leave, Cheng Xia unceremoniously took the things and stuffed them into the hands of Dahua standing at the door, she turned her head to look at the girl and Gu Shi coldly, "I, it's me, it's for my sister-in-law, Do you understand, how can you have such a big face?"

"Little bastard, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Gu was about to strike anxiously, Mrs. Zhang coughed again on the bed, Mrs. Gu turned her head and yelled at Mrs. Zhang, "Why didn't you cough to death!"

Cheng Xia didn't know what was going on, she didn't see Father Cheng and Cheng Zuo, nor Cheng You and Cheng Shang, even Liu Jingzhong didn't look at it, only Dahua and Zhang's family, and Gu's and Cheng This is a girl named Xiu'e.Cheng Xia frowned and looked at Mrs. Gu, "Grandma, what do you mean? My mother coughed like this. It's fine if you don't ask a doctor. You still curse her. If it wasn't for my mother, would you stay here, grandma?" People have to be grateful, if you can't get into Second Aunt's house, you should cherish being able to stay in my house, instead of showing off like you are now and dislike everyone." No, Cheng Xia felt that she was wrong after saying that , she was quite pleasing to the eyes of that Xiu'e.

"If you dare to say one more word, I'll strangle you to death." Mrs. Gu snapped, took a stick from the side and greeted Cheng Xia.

Cheng Xia held the stick she swung in her hand without dodging, and said coolly, "Grandma, are you sure? I won't do anything to elders, but if you do this again, I won't promise to be polite to you. "

"Little sister, how can you say that about grandma?" Xiu'e wrung her hands vigorously, took a lot of courage to look up at Cheng Xia, and said dissatisfied.

Cheng Xia threw the stick in her hand, and approached Xiu'e in two or three steps, "Which onion are you? Who are you calling a little girl? Why don't I remember that I have such a sloppy sister?"

Xiu'e blushed, she couldn't help raising her eyes and defended herself, "Grandma said you are my little sister, and you are my little sister."

"She said to let you die, are you really going to hit the wall!" Cheng Xia's words seemed to be spitting ice, wishing that the person in front of him would be frozen to death.

Although it was scorching heat, Xiu'e felt that her body was instantly icy cold, she shivered twice, and timidly hid behind Gu Shi.

Cheng Xia felt irritated when she saw Gu's wrinkled and calculating face, she turned around and pulled Da Hua, who was weeping softly at the door, into the back room, turned around and pushed Xiu'e and Gu's out, then closed the door, The two are completely isolated.

She learned this from Mrs. Chen. That's how Mrs. Chen blocked Yang Lietou and Cuihua from the door.

Mrs. Gu slammed the door, and Mrs. Zhang glanced at the shaky door worriedly, coughed twice before saying, "Girl Xia, your grandma will tear down the door."

Dahua also stared at Cheng Xia anxiously, Cheng Xia frowned, how could these two live their lives like this in their own home.Dahua obviously lost a lot of weight again, but not normal thinness, but haggard thinness.

"What about the others, why are you two at home? Also, sister-in-law, why are you kneeling? Grandma made you kneel?"

Dahua couldn't stop crying, and Mrs. Zhang couldn't help sighing, "Your father took everyone else to work in the field, and your grandma let me stay when she saw that I was sick and couldn't get off the kang. As for Dahua Hey," Zhang sighed, "She left Dahua to serve her, just now when Dahua accidentally touched her while walking, she beat and scolded her, and finally made Dahua face the wall and think about it."

"Eldest Sister and Jingzhong have gone too?" Cheng Shang is not someone who is easy to compromise.

"The elder sister thought the house was annoying, so she went by herself and took Jingzhong with her. But the younger brother came back and said that the eldest sister did not go to work in the field, and no one knows where she went." Dahua wiped her tears and choked up. speak.

Mrs. Gu still kept banging on the door, Cheng Xia instantly understood why Cheng Shang had to go out, it was really annoying.

"What's the matter with that woman named Xiu'e?" Cheng Xia saw that she was very familiar.

Mrs. Zhang slowly leaned against the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Your grandma bought it, and it didn't cost money to buy it. Xiu'e was thrown here by a child because she is ugly." And she eats a lot, and the child doesn't want her anymore, your grandma will take her in when she meets her. Say yes, say yes, hey."

"Say what?" Cheng Xia asked puzzled.

Dahua sobbed and said, "Grandma said that I have never had a child, and after a while, let Cheng Zuo marry Xiu'e to carry on the Cheng family's family."

Cheng Xia bowed down for a while, and the question of who the child could not be born was not yet settled, so everyone turned their blame on the woman. Is this the tragedy of women?

Cheng Xia got up straight away to open the door, but Mrs. Zhang hurriedly called to her, "What are you going to do?"

"I have something to say to grandma, so that she can wake up."
