Hard work

Chapter 123 My family

Following the directions of the villagers, the four of them walked all the way to the door of Zhao's family.

The Zhao family has always said before that the ancestors had accumulated some property and saved some family property.Now when I go to the gate, I can see that there is a kind of rich and noble style in the village.Like Lan Hua'er, they live in a thatched wooden house, but this family lives in a house made of bricks, wood and earthen tiles.

Although this ancestral house has been handed down for some time, it is already very remarkable to have such a house in the village.

What's more, pigs were fed in front of the yard, and there were pens where cows and sheep were tied.

This is the first time for Lan Huaer to see someone raising sheep in the village.There are a few cattle in Aozi Village, but sheep have never been raised by anyone.In such a comparison, the head of the Zhao family is so rich that it makes people feel sad.

Obviously there is no shortage of money in the family, but when my youngest son was dying of illness, he was still reluctant to spend some money to save his son and daughter-in-law.Even if it is said that life is destined, after the death of the son and daughter-in-law, even if it is to help a few orphans, it will not be...

Lan Hua'er stood and stared at the big house and the big courtyard for a long time, and suddenly realized.

Sure enough, the three of them never belonged to this place, and they probably won't get together in the future.Now it's just a formality for each other to save face.In the future, it's fine if we just maintain this kind of neither cold nor cold relationship. If there is any real intersection, we probably won't be able to get along together.

Lan Hua'er looked back at Gaihua and Goudan, Gaihua's complexion was fine, but Goudan probably thought the same thing as her, the expression on his face was not very good-looking.Gaihua already knew the situation of the family before, so she must have been desperate.

fair enough.

At least Gaihua will not think about sending orchids to my family to try raising them because of fantasy.

This is still a separation, and this is not the entire family property of the Zhao family.

Orchid is even a little tired.You said that the family business is so big, why bother to covet a chicken in their house.Originally, Lan Hua'er thought that Zhao Chunling couldn't eat chicken at home, so she acted anxiously, which was quite understandable.But looking at it now, that's not the case at all.Does the family that raises cattle and sheep still need a bite of meat?

I don't know what happened to this family, not only Zhao Chunling, who is a nun, is so virtuous, but even the grandson, Ahu, seems to be unable to eat a bite of meat every day.

Gaihua led the people to the door, and Zang Lang naturally followed behind.

Because it was already close to noon, and everyone rushed home for dinner.When they came to the door, the whole family was there, Lan Huaer followed behind Gaihua, raised her head slightly and swept all the people in the house.

People in my family still eat at separate tables, and the rules are very strict.Although there are such rules, people in the village often don't notice so much.For example, in Lanhua'er's house, or some families with a small population, they basically don't care about dividing the table.

Only those families who are really thriving and cannot sit at one table will sit at separate tables during meals.

The Zhao family has a small population, so there are quite a few rules.

The old man sitting in front of the door was obviously Zhao Tu, an old man of the Zhao family, and there were three middle-aged men and two young men sitting next to him.The fourth grandpa was known to Lan Huaer a long time ago, and the person sitting above the fourth grandpa is probably the eldest son of the Zhao family, so Lan Huaer should call him grandpa.As for the other one, the sad-faced man sitting under the fourth grandpa, Lan Hua'er couldn't help being stunned.

It took her a long time to think about it, and she changed the story, saying that the son-in-law recruited by the youngest aunt of the family.The extra man in this room is probably Zhao Chunling's cheap man.

As for those two who looked obviously younger, I guess they were cousins ​​from somewhere.

As for Zhao Chunling, she was sitting at a table in the back with two other women of similar age, leading a group of children to prepare for dinner.

The side door in the yard was not closed at all, and Gaihua shouted a few times outside, but no one answered.In desperation, Gaihua led them straight to the front of the house, and they could see the people eating inside, so she stood still in front of the door and said:
"Ah Weng, Eldest Grandpa, Fourth Grandpa, Uncle, I am the child with the fifth house outside me, and I brought my brothers and sisters to pay homage to Ah Weng."

The people in the room probably didn't expect that the person from the fifth room would appear at this time, and they couldn't help being stunned.

Lan Hua'er has been standing at the back observing the expressions of those people, and saw A Weng Zhao Tu leading the way, the eldest grandpa and the fourth grandpa frowned obviously, and their expressions loosened only when they caught sight of the things Zang Lang was carrying behind him. some.On the contrary, it was the uncle with a sad face, who obviously heard Gaihua's words, but didn't even react at all, and didn't even turn his head to look at Gaihua, as if whatever happened outside had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Chunling and a group of female relatives and children were sitting inside, and Lan Hua'er couldn't see their reactions.But it probably won't look good after all.

Zhao Tu looked at the things Zang Lang was carrying with a very deliberate gaze, nodded his head after a long time, and said:

"The fifth room, why did you come here at this time. Put your things in the back, boys, come over to this table. Girls... go to the next table."

Before the others could speak, Zang Lang hurriedly shook his head and said:

"I'm with the little lady. I... no, I'm not hungry."

Although Zang Lang is usually a little dull, he is not a stupid person after all.He could also feel the weird atmosphere in the room.He always felt that the people in his family didn't seem to welcome them, nor were they willing to let them eat.He was originally a person who felt that he ate too much, and he was afraid that he would make people unhappy when he sat at the table, and even Xiao Niangzhao would be angered by others.

Zhao Tu seemed a little unhappy that he was robbed of his speech when he was speaking. He rolled his eyes and looked at Zang Lang, and asked:
"Which one is this?"

Gaihua thought about it, she didn't know what to say about Zang Lang's identity, but she felt that Zhao Chunling and the fourth grandpa had probably already greeted my family, so she said:

"It's Amei's servants from outside, who came to help."

Zhao Tu said "Oh", rolled his eyes again, stretched out his chopsticks and tapped on the open space beside him, saying:
"Then stand aside."

Lan Hua'er couldn't help but want to get angry when she heard this.She has always lived with Zang Lang at home, and has long regarded Zang Lang as her family. Even because they are often together, sometimes she always feels that Zang Lang is closer than Gai Hua and Goudan.

Two people have lived together for a long time, and some words can be understood even if they are not spoken, or the other party can understand what he wants to say with just one opening.

Zang Lang immediately sensed Lan Hua'er's displeasure, and stretched out his hand behind to pull Lan Hua'er's clothes.

Lan Hua'er lowered her head and took several deep breaths to suppress her anger.Zang Lang's identity is indeed a problem.But she kept Zang Lang at home, because she treated Zang Lang like a brother. In fact, Zang Lang's identity was still a servant, and the body deed was still in her hands.

But if that thing was torn off, Zang Lang would have no other identity to stay in Zhao's house.

What a good girl to raise a man in the house.Even in modern times, it is estimated that people will make irresponsible remarks, let alone in a village.

So in the eyes of outsiders, Zang Lang is just a servant.

Lan Hua'er had no choice but to watch Zang Lang silently put the back basket to the back of the house, and then stood behind her.

Gaihua and Goudan naturally listened to A Weng's words and went to the man's table.At Gaihua's age, he was old enough to eat at that table, but Goudan, probably because of the sake of the first visit.

Lan Hua'er pricked up her ears, but she couldn't hear the conversation at that table, so she could only silently give up.

When she led Zang Lang to the side table, those people had already eaten half of it.I don't know if I knew that the orchid flower was going to eat together, so I ate more than half of it first.

Those people also gave up a seat for Lan Hua'er, in fact, at the bottom of the table, in the middle of a group of children, far away from all the dishes on the table.

But Lan Hua'er didn't care either.She didn't come here to play the autumn wind, as long as she can eat enough, she doesn't care how much.And she glanced at the things on the table, and felt that she ate worse than when she was at home.

Although the environment of Zhao's family is not as good as that of our own, Lanhua'er has never skimped on food.She always feels that people can only do things when they are full, so the richness of Zhao's food is well-known in Aozi Village.She also likes to toss some new things, and someone in the family goes to the back mountain to hunt for food, and there is often meat.

Looking at the dining table at my house, there are four or five pots full of vegetarian dishes, not even a little shredded pork.The last meal is fried chili.What I ate was not dry rice, but hard dry black steamed buns, soaked in porridge water to soften them.

Zhao Chunling took a look at Lan Hua'er and gave her the youngest one.

Lan Hua'er lowered her head and took a bite, then frowned silently.

Zhao Chunling tapped the vegetable bowl on the table with chopsticks, and said with a smile:
"Oh, why did Hua'er come to the door at this time, and didn't mention it. You can see that there is no good food at home. But you see, this home only eats these, and it is naturally incomparable with your home. I know you are not happy, these are not to your liking, you just eat less."

It was the first time for Lan Hua'er to see such a petty person, for such a small dish, to speak such explicit words.

But looking at the dishes in front of her, she suddenly felt sympathy for Zhao Chunling.She didn't even bother to get angry, and she didn't even bother to raise her head. She lowered her head and held the bowl of porridge in front of her, and gave a low "hmm" as her agreement.
