peasant young lady

Chapter 45

Usually after getting up, she and Yang Dalang folded their respective quilts, and then stacked them on the cabinet at the foot of the bed, so that the whole bed was clean, Cheng Xia looked at this place and it seemed like this.

But at this moment, Cheng Xia found that both her and Yang Dalang's quilts had been rolled out, the pillows were placed at the head of the bed, and everyone's quilts were laid flat and side by side, as if to remind her, come quickly. Come to sleep, come to sleep.

Cheng Xia couldn't help shivering at the thought, it was really cold, goosebumps fell all over the ground, and he didn't know who was so bored to do such a thing.

Just thinking about Yang Dalang pushing the door and coming in, Cheng Xia asked directly, "What's the matter with this quilt?"

Yang Dalang glanced at it casually, "Mother did it, I didn't notice."

Cheng Xia curled her lips, turned around and went out to fry the chicken fir mushrooms. When the aroma was tangy, Yang Erlang entered the yard again on time, but this time he returned empty-handed unlike before, with two large pieces of bacon and a jar of white wine in his hand , leaned over to the pot on the stove and sniffed it carefully, sighed contentedly, "It's really right for this sister-in-law to marry into the house, I thought my mother didn't have eyes, but it turns out, hehe, not bad." Then he walked away lazily up.

Soon, Chen's exclamation of excitement and Yang's headhunter's humming sound came from the main room, but he could also hear the joy, but Yang Lihua was almost sarcastic, and was scolded by Chen again.

Cheng Xia always felt that Yang Erlang was a ticking time bomb. Don't look at the current state of affairs. He didn't work every day, and he didn't see any troubles. But he didn't know when it would explode, and he wouldn't even be smashed to pieces.

Cheng Xia shook her head, glanced at Lin Xiu who was making wild vegetable soup next to her, and Xiaolong who was sitting on a small bench in the yard waiting for her meal, but said nothing.

After dinner, Yang Lihua explained that she would go to the market with Cheng Xia early in the morning, and she would do something within her power. It saves Cheng Xia from guessing every day.

Sending off the happy Yang Lihua, Cheng Xia saw that Yang Dalang had packed up and was ready to go to bed, Cheng Xia pouted, walked to the newly built kang in the corner to have a look, and felt that it would be ready for use tomorrow in a day , the mood suddenly became happy, "This new kang will be used tomorrow, and then there will be no need to squeeze it."

Yang Dalang paused his hands to clean up the quilt, and nodded, "Go to bed early, and get up early tomorrow."

Really got up early tomorrow, when Cheng Xia yawned and opened the door, Lin Xiu had already packed the things to bring, Cheng Xia raised her jaw and pointed in the direction of Yang Lihua's room while wiping her face, Lin Xiu shook her head, "Still Didn't get up yet."

Cheng Xia was thinking about whether to remind her, but she saw Yang Lihua's door opened, she tidied up in a hurry, and then walked out with Cheng Xia excitedly.

The driver today was not Tian Dazhi from last time, but an uncle who Cheng Xia didn't know. Seeing Lin Xiu politely calling Uncle Tian, ​​Cheng Xia followed suit.

There were already three aunts sitting in the back of the cart, but I didn't see my sister-in-law, Da Hua, or Cheng Qiu, so I don't know what happened.

Both Cheng Xia and Lin Xiu had two porcelain jars in their back baskets, and in the porcelain jars were two to thirty catties of candied winter melon. Yang Lihua thought it was too heavy, so she carried the dried herbs on her back, which was much easier in comparison. .

Cheng Xia didn't know these aunts either, so after saying hello, she sat quietly and didn't speak.On the contrary, the three aunts looked at Cheng Xia with obvious curiosity in their eyes.

People in the east of the village said that the married second girl of the Cheng family had changed her sex. When they saw it now, although it was so dark that they couldn't see anything, they still wanted to test it out.

"Girl Xia, your second aunt's house has been in trouble for the past few days, why don't you go back and have a look?" The short and fat aunt rolled her eyes a few times and asked Cheng Xia with a smile.

Cheng Xia smiled, and said flatly, "It's no use if I go, and I can't control this matter."

Another tall and thin aunt answered, "Miss Xia said this, if it weren't for you, would your second aunt's house have become like this? It has nothing to do with you."

"What are you talking about? What is the relationship with my sister-in-law?" Yang Lihua choked first, "My daughter-in-law gave birth to a child with a bad brain, and my sister-in-law can be blamed. Give it to the younger one, and still have the face to blame others."

Cheng Xia was surprised, she didn't expect Yang Lihua to speak for her in front of outsiders.

"Why are you talking to the elders, you kid? You haven't said anything about kissing yet. Why do you interrupt when I'm talking to your sister-in-law?" The tall and thin aunt was not happy.

"Don't let people mention what you said is wrong." Yang Lihua rolled her eyes.

"Girl Xia, I'm not talking about you, you sister-in-law should take care of it, it's okay to be so aggressive." The third aunt who had been silent all this time spoke.

Seeing that Yang Lihua was about to choke again, Cheng Xia patted her hand, turned her head and looked at the three aunts with a smile, "Auntie, my sister-in-law did not say anything wrong, why should I care about it? What about my second aunt's house?" I can't even count it on my head. She didn't take good care of herself and wanted to find someone to take responsibility for the accident. She couldn't justify it. Don't talk about the enthroned aunt. When the time comes, let your daughter-in-law hear, I'm afraid you will run back to your mother's house Go, but don't run away, knowing that my mother-in-law has such thoughts, I should have two minds."

"Damn, it's said that you have changed your temper, and you have become so eloquent in the end. You dare to say such things to your aunt. See if I don't tell your mother." An aunt who has a bad temper got angry directly.

Cheng Xia smiled warmly, "Auntie, just go ahead and talk, it's still half an hour before we arrive in the county, so don't waste time on me when Auntie has time, just squint for a while."

Cheng Xia turned her head and leaned on her arms and blinked at Lin Xiu and Yang Lihua. These gossips who are often talked about by Li's boss, it would be best not to answer their words and suffocate them to death.

When we arrived in Chong'an County, the sky was already a little bright, Cheng Xia thanked Uncle Tian, ​​and then took Lin Xiu and Yang Lihua towards Shangji Pharmacy.

Yang Lihua obviously hadn't been to the county fair much, her eyes were straightened when she saw the dazzling array of food, thinking that Yang Lihua was helping her just now, Cheng Xia said directly, "You can buy whatever you want after selling the money. "

"Really?" There was an unusually surprised voice, and Yang Lihua quickly covered her mouth when she felt someone was watching her.

It's rare for a little daughter to be shy, Cheng Xia thinks Yang Lihua like this is a little cute, "Really, you can eat whatever you want when you make money later."

"Then, can I buy a hairpin?"

Hairpin?Show it to your sweetheart? "Okay, but you have to go to the pharmacy now, or you have to wait when there are too many people."

Yang Lihua happily dragged Cheng Xia to the pharmacy, and after a short walk, she arrived at the Shangji pharmacy, and saw many people gathered in front of the Shangji restaurant next to the pharmacy, pointing at the tall restaurant There was endless discussion.

Cheng Xia suddenly thought of the last time he came here, when he was waiting for Lin Xiu and Dahua's medicinal herbs to be weighed, the people next to him said that the boss of Shangji often donated medicines and medicines for free, and he had already spent a lot of gold and silver. The boss opened a restaurant to treat the people in Chong'an Town. He thought that when the restaurant became profitable, he would have more money to support the pharmacy. down.

Cheng Xia leaned forward and saw that the plaque on the second floor of the restaurant was slowly being lowered. It seemed that the restaurant, which had never been opened, was about to close completely this time.

Cheng Xia had a plan in mind, and dragged Lin Xiu and Yang Lihua into the pharmacy. It was early in the morning, and there were not many people seeing the doctor, and the herb sellers didn't come so early, so the herbs on Yang Lihua's back were almost weighed, because They are all sun-dried, so the price is a bit more expensive, and the amount of picking this time is a bit large, so there are 12 coins in the end, and Yang Lihua and Lin Xiu are very happy.

Cheng Xia thought for a while, and put half of the money into the hands of Lin Xiu and Yang Lihua, "Now there are a lot of breakfasts outside, you go and eat some, I will wait for the shopkeeper to come and sell the candied fruit."

When Yang Lihua heard it, the joy she had just felt because she could go to eat breakfast instantly froze on her face, she turned her head and smiled at Cheng Xia with concern, "Sister-in-law, how can I let you wait here alone, we waited to sell candied fruit Let's go eat together."

Cheng Xiapi looked at Yang Lihua with a nonchalant smile, "I have something to talk to the shopkeeper. It's not good for you, a girl who hasn't promised her marriage, to show her face like this. In the future, it will be rumored that you will marry or not."

Yang Lihua saw that Lin Xiu was also pulling her, so she could only nod reluctantly, "Then sister-in-law, I'll come back to find you as soon as I finish eating."

Cheng Xia nodded, sent the two of them away, turned to the waiter at the side and asked, "Excuse me, can I meet your shopkeeper?"

The clerk looked at Cheng Xia in a daze for a while, and found that she was a very beautiful little woman, so he nodded and smiled and said, "The shopkeeper is at the restaurant now," he walked to the door and pointed to the direction of the second floor, "The shopkeeper Inside, the plaque of Today's Restaurant has been completely removed, and the shopkeeper is not in a good mood, so why don't you tell me if you have anything to do."

Cheng Xia glanced at the opposite second floor. Sure enough, there were a few tall men standing in the direction of the window. Their faces could not be seen clearly through the morning mist. Very dignified.

Cheng Xia politely asked the guy, "Could you please take me there? I have some homemade candied fruit here. No one has made it before. It should be lighter than the candied fruit you usually give to your children. It’s so greasy, so I want to ask the shopkeeper to let him try it and see if he accepts it.”

The shopkeeper scratched his head in embarrassment, "Our shopkeeper is usually very talkative, but these two days the proprietress has gone back to her mother's house, so the shopkeeper's mood is not very good, and the restaurant is completely closed, so I'm afraid."

Cheng Xia understood, "Are you afraid of the shopkeeper's scolding, how about this," Cheng Xia thought for a while, "You take me there, first pass it on to me, and say that I have a way to bring the restaurant back to life."
