Farmhouse with a little field

Chapter 326 Hearing That Man Call Master "Daddy"

Zhuang Cheng's brows couldn't help but twitch, but it was quickly replaced by a cold look on his face: "I've been living in the study room recently, and the bed in my room is not spacious enough, so tonight you and Xiaoqi first sleep."

"What about tomorrow?" Although Xiao Qiniang was still a little hurt, she didn't dare to oppose Zhuang Cheng's decision, and could only pin her hopes on the future.

tomorrow?You are leaving tomorrow, so where is tomorrow?
Zhuang Cheng sneered in his heart, but the expression on his face softened a little: "Tomorrow I will ask someone to clean up the room. It's getting late now, and you must be tired too. Take Xiaoqi to rest."

Little Qi Niang didn't dare to say anything more, she nodded and took Xiao Qi to the arranged room to rest.

That night, except for the heartless second wife and the honest and honest eldest son, almost no one else fell asleep. Although the body was very tired, but because they had their own concerns in their hearts, their heads were unusually clear.

This is the first time that Mr. Zhuang has left his home. Although the conditions here are better than at home, the bed is big and the mat on it is not as tight as at home, but Mr. Zhuang still can't sleep.

He really doesn't want to leave his roots if he can, but can he really go back?

On the other hand, Zhuang Cheng was thinking that if he asked about the situation tomorrow, he would drive all the family members back. His current life is very good and satisfactory, and he must not be disturbed.

As for Xiaoqi and his wife, one is thinking about her husband who is only a few doors away, and the other is thinking about how to get close to Song Ning. She can already regard Song Ning as her future husband.

At this time, these people don't know that, except for Xiaoqi's fantasy, everything that happened to the dealer, including their group coming to the town, was arranged by Han Duyue and Song Ning, so the good show is still going on. behind it.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Mr. Zhuang got up before dawn. He almost didn't sleep all night, and his face became darker. He sat in the yard for a long time, and the rest of the dealer got up one after another.

"Father, why did you get up so early?" As soon as Zhuang Cheng walked out of his room, he was shocked when he saw Mr. Zhuang sitting with his back facing him.

Because he was worried that Mr. Zhuang and the others would find something abnormal, he got up early and settled the person in the room. Who knew that he saw Mr. Zhuang as soon as he went out, and he was terrified.

He subconsciously looked back at the door, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

Hearing the voice of his third son, old man Zhuang straightened his back a little, turned his head and waved to Zhuang Cheng, signaling Zhuang Cheng to sit with him for a while.

In the countryside, it is normal to sit on the steps in your own yard, but for Zhuang Cheng, who is used to life in the town, it has become a test.

He walked to the side of Mr. Zhuang, looked at the bluestone steps under his feet with some distaste, paused, and then sat down slowly: "Father, what happened at home? Why did you all come to town all of a sudden?" On? Didn't I say before..." Didn't I tell you that it's best not to come to the town to look for me?

It stands to reason that it's definitely not normal for a son not to let his father visit him, but Zhuang Cheng used his own business as a weapon, so Mr. Zhuang had no choice but to attach great importance to this matter.

Hearing this, Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but sighed: "Third brother, something serious happened at home..."

Although he was very shameless, Mr. Zhuang still told Zhuang Cheng everything that happened at home. His corruption of taxes and food was found out, and he lost his position as village chief. The house was stolen and he lost everything. Being slandered and embezzled 50 taels of silver, even your reputation is ruined...

The more Zhuang Cheng heard it, the more frightened he became. He went home during the Chinese New Year and saw that life at home was going well. Why did so many things happen at home in only half a year?
"Father, did our family offend someone? Why did so many things happen all at once?" Zhuang Cheng asked with a frown. Things only affect you.

The first thing he thought of was the Han family. After all, the 50 taels of silver was caused by the Han family, but then he thought it was impossible.

The Han family is indeed the first in Qingyuan Village, but after all, they are still rural people, so how could they be hooked up with the government?
So there should be another mystery in this, but after all, Zhuang Cheng hasn't been home much for several years, and he doesn't know much about the family affairs, so he can only ask Mr. Zhuang again.

Mr. Zhuang pursed his chapped lips. He said almost everything just now, but he didn't say that the reason why his family became like this was actually because his granddaughter fell in love with the son-in-law of the Han family. He was afraid The third child was annoyed for a while, what happened to the little chess.

He didn't intend to talk about it at the moment, so he could only falter and say: "I don't know, maybe it's because someone has taken a fancy to the position of village head."

"Is there really no other reason? I remember that our family and the Han family have nothing to do with each other. Why does the Han family slander us so much?" Zhuang Cheng looked at his father and vaguely felt something was wrong.

Mr. Zhuang looked away, and sighed concealedly: "It's useless to talk about it right now, the most important thing is what should our family do now, hey, I don't want to delay your business, but our family is only in Qingyuan Village now. I'm afraid I can't go on."

The most important thing is not that the family has no money, but because the reputation is so bad, if they continue to live in Qingyuan Village, it will be like a street mouse, and everyone will call and beat them.

Zhuang Cheng was also silent. Even if he didn't want to take care of the messy things at home, he couldn't ignore his own father. He also cared about his reputation, so he naturally knew how difficult it was to send his family back to Qingyuan Village. What should he do?Could it be that so many people were left in the town?

This is impossible!
"Father, this matter still needs to be discussed in the long term. Let's go to dinner first. After dinner, we will discuss it slowly." Unable to come up with a clue, Zhuang Cheng could only postpone the matter.

Mr. Zhuang sighed, stood up with the support of his son, and went to the dining room together.

At this time, the rest of the Zhuang family had already sat down in the dining room, and the small dining room suddenly seemed extremely crowded. In desperation, Zhuang Cheng had no choice but to drive all the women in the family to the kitchen, leaving only a few men and My child, I barely sat down.

Here people were sitting together eating breakfast, while in another room some people had less appetites.

Liu Shi was woken up in a daze last night, and then was suddenly asked not to leave the room for a few days, and to stay in the room for three meals a day, which made Liu Shi vaguely feel that something was wrong.

"Xiao Ping, did you really see that the people who came to our house last night are the master's family?" Mrs. Liu sat at the table with her handkerchief twisted, her brows furrowed.

Xiaoping is the only maid in the family, and also Liu's personal maid, she is extremely trustworthy, she paused, and said seriously: "Ma'am, the servant will never be wrong, and the servant heard the master call the old man with his own ears. For 'Father', there is absolutely no way this can go wrong."

"But if that's the case, then why doesn't the master let me visit my father-in-law?" In the past, the Liu family looked down on Zhuang Cheng's family members in the countryside very much, but it didn't mean that she didn't want Zhuang Cheng's family members able to recognize her identity.

Especially this time when all the dealers came, instead of letting her go out to entertain guests, Zhuang Cheng ordered her to stay in the house instead, which seemed very strange.

Xiaoping's eyes flashed, she bit her lips, and said in a low voice: "Ma'am, this servant saw a woman with a child in the kitchen before, that woman looked about the same age as the master, and she called the father of the master 'Father', the little girl beside her still calls the master 'Father', madam, do you think..."

"What did you say?" Liu's eyes widened immediately, and she finally understood why she felt something was wrong. Could it be that besides her, the master already had a wife in the countryside, so he didn't dare to let himself go out to meet his family?
Yes, it must be so, and only then can these things make sense.

It's really unreasonable, she serves this man wholeheartedly, but this man never takes himself seriously, and even thinks that she is ashamed to see others, it is really abominable!

Seeing that Mrs. Liu believed her words, Xiaoping hurriedly revealed a look of fear: "Ma'am, this servant only heard it vaguely, maybe this matter is not..."

"Hmph, don't speak for him. How could you misunderstand this kind of thing?" Liu Shi narrowed her eyes, stood up and walked out.

Xiaoping hurriedly followed: "Madam, the master told you not to leave the room for a few days, you still..."

"Shut up!" Liu Shi was so angry that his nose was spraying hot air.

Xiaoping subconsciously closed her mouth, but she thought in her heart, ma'am, this servant is also for your own good, if you have not been recognized by the master's family, then life will definitely be difficult in the future, so you must not blame the servant .

The two walked two steps, but Liu Shi stopped first, Xiaoping looked at Liu Shi's back, and couldn't help feeling a little worried: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

"Go and ask the kitchen to prepare a pot of hot tea. Go there as soon as possible. I'll wait for you here." Although there was still anger in Liu's voice, it sounded much calmer.

I have to say that this person is not stupid, he knows what to do in order to bring greater benefits to himself.

If she ran over and made a scene right now, instead of making Zhuang Cheng's family feel good about her, she might make Zhuang Cheng displeased, and even make herself inferior in front of that bitch.

So after the anger subsided a little and her rationality gradually returned, Liu Shi temporarily changed her mind. Of course she was going to see Zhuang Cheng's family, but it was not to make trouble, but to pay her respects.
