The Pretty Peasant Wife

Cheng Xi suddenly remembered something, and followed Xu Sanlang out the door while saying, "That's right, if we don't lock the door, then we'll leave. If this old lady comes, wouldn't she be able to move all these things away? Would the old lady smash the door? "

Xu Sanlang's action of locking the door paused for a moment, and did not answer Cheng Xi's question. He continued to lock the door, and then carried the basket on his back and said, "Let's go."

Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang's uncertain look, and gritted his teeth as she said, "This bandit, is there no one who can control him?"

Xu Sanlang walked forward as he replied, "Looking for the village chief."

Cheng Xi caught up to Xu Sanlang's footsteps, and her expression became slightly better, but she still spoke with some anger, "As expected, it's hard to guard against thieves at night."

Being harassed by the Old Madam Xu like this, the two of them didn't look too good, nor did they speak, walking towards the Cheng Family one after the other. Along the way, they met some villagers who greeted them, and Xu Sanlang also nodded slightly.

Cheng Qiang had long been standing at the Cheng Family entrance and looking around, he saw Xu Sanlang walking over with him in the front and back, and was jumping excitedly as he ran over, grabbing onto Cheng Xi's arm and acting like a spoiled child, "Sis, why did you only come back now? We've been waiting for you guys to eat breakfast for such a long time, there's so much delicious food, I'm drooling just watching it."

Cheng Xi restrained her expression and revealed a smile: "Look how greedy you are, you're almost drooling, then hurry up and go back."

Cheng Xi followed her brother and ran towards the Cheng Family's entrance, but Cheng Qiang seemed to have completely forgotten about Xu Sanlang's existence. She didn't even greet him, and only arrived at the Cheng Family's entrance, and upon seeing that Xu Sanlang wasn't following them, he stopped and turned his head, and seeing that Xu Sanlang had been standing motionlessly the entire time, he opened his mouth to urge him, "Xu Sanlang, what are you standing there for, hurry up."

Xu Sanlang was tall and big, he caught up to the two in a few steps, placed the basket on the ground beside the Cheng Family's entrance and said, "I'll be going first."

Cheng Xi caught hold of Xu Sanlang's arm just in time, "What are you going back to do now, maybe you're blocking the door."

At this time, Lady Wu's slightly sarcastic voice came from inside the door, "You're already at the door and you want to leave again? [Are you trying to make the people outside say that I am mean and that I am a slow stepson-in-law?] "Why haven't you come in yet?"

Cheng Xi had a fawning smile on her face, "He won't leave, we'll enter right now." Cheng Xi knew that in this situation, the only person she could rely on in the future would be his mother. She had to get on good terms with her mother and family, and must not become enemies with Cheng Family Member.

When Lady Wu saw Cheng Xi's smile, her body involuntarily shivered, and she quickly went back into the house, muttering to herself, "There's really something wrong with this girl's brain, to actually smile at me, it's truly seductive."

Hearing the commotion outside, Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai also came out. Seeing Cheng Xi at the door, they welcomed him with a smile on their faces, and said to Cheng Xi first: "Why are you standing at the door, quickly come in."

Cheng Chen went over and called out to Xu Sanlang, "Brother-in-law, come in quickly."

Xu Sanlang took off the basket on his back and handed it over to Cheng Chen, then said: "A few of the prey will help Uncle Cheng recuperate."

Cheng Chen accepted the basket, and said with satisfaction, "Brother-in-law, you're really considerate." After that, he took the basket to the kitchen.

This was the second time that Cheng Xi had come to this Cheng Family courtyard, but it was the first time she had carefully observed this courtyard. The courtyard wasn't very big, yet it was cleanly tidied up.

There were two rooms on the left side of the yard, one on the outside and the other against the wall. They were filled with firewood, and from time to time, the sound of a pig grunting could be heard. There was probably a kitchen and a pigsty in front of them.

Cheng Xi's round gaze also attracted Cheng Cai's attention, and she asked worriedly: "You can't have forgotten your own home, right?"

Cheng Xi embarrassedly touched her nose and said guiltily, "I don't even remember Fourth Brother, how can I remember anything else? But rest assured Fourth Brother, I will definitely not forget it in the future."

Cheng Cai laughed and patted Cheng Xi's head, "Although I don't remember anything, I am much more sensible than before."

"Has Xi returned?" A gruff, questioning voice came from the left ear.

Cheng Xi looked in the direction of the left ear room in a daze, as she guessed that this voice should be the voice of her original father.

Cheng Cai pushed the stunned Cheng Xi to the side, and whispered into Cheng Xi's ear, "Quickly go and see Father, you cannot let Father know that you do not remember him, or else he will be sad. His body is not well, the doctor said that you cannot be too emotional."

Cheng Xi nodded her head, and followed behind Cheng Qiang who was bounding and jumping as she led the way, to the left ear room.

Cheng Xi could not help but frown at the smell of the medicine after entering the door. In her previous life, she had interacted with various medicines for a long time due to physical reasons, which made him somewhat hate the smell of the medicine.

Xi, come over and take a look." The middle-aged man who was lying on the bed had a dark green face that was difficult to hide. Looking at Cheng Xi at the door, his face revealed a rare red light, and his muddy eyes were still flashing with tears.

When Cheng Xi saw the middle-aged man in bed, who had an unconcealable excitement and warm smile on her face when he saw her, her eyes instantly reddened. It was as if she saw her father, who once saw her safe and sound as he left the operation room.

Seemingly even the annoying smell of the medicine had disappeared, Cheng Xi unwittingly took a step forward and sat down on the side of the bed. She held onto the hand of the middle-aged man with an aged face and muttered: "Are you alright?"

Cheng Xi's sudden question caused the injured Cheng Dagui to be stunned, then she broke out into laughter, "Father is good, father is good, father is worried about Xi, worried about hurting Xi, it's all because father is useless."

Cheng Xi immediately recovered from her reminiscing, and laughed: "Father, don't speak nonsense, our family is counting on you, you better get better quickly."

Listening to Cheng Xi's "us", the smile on Cheng Dagui's face gradually disappeared, and she sighed, "It's all father's fault, I couldn't stop you in time, and let you suffer suffering after marrying into Xu Family. He even allowed your Xu Family to bully you, and gave you to that tough Xu Sanlang."

Cheng Xi thought that Xu Sanlang had come with him, and might even be right outside. If she had heard these words, she might even feel upset, and immediately said, "Father, don't say it like that, I think that Xu Sanlang is much better than Xu Sanlang, then Xu Erlang's pampered self is useless, and will just rely on his family's love to bully others. In the future, Xu Sanlang will definitely be useless.

The voices of Cheng Xi defending Xu Sanlang were not quiet, and Xu Sanlang and the Cheng Family Brothers, who had been invited to sit in the hall, heard what Cheng Xi said clearly. A hint of a suspicious blush appeared on Xu Sanlang's face, because his skin had already been tanned, so it was not obvious.

Cheng Chen patted Xu Sanlang's shoulder and laughed: "Look, I'm protecting you now, in the future, you better treat our Xi well."

Cheng Cai snorted coldly, "If you dare to treat Xi badly, watch how I'll take care of you."

Xu Sanlang lowered his head and did not say a word.

And when Cheng Dagui heard how much Cheng Xi praised him so well, he was somewhat gratified, but at the same time, he was a little worried. Recalling those rumors about Xu Sanlang, he could not help but sigh and say, "But, he did have a tough life after all …"

"Pa …"

Suddenly, the sound of something dropping on the ground came from outside, following that, the loud clamoring of Lady Wu could be heard from outside the door, "Cheng Dagui, tell me clearly today, do you think that I am a man who is dead? Did you think that it was because of me that you broke your leg? You must explain it to me today. "

His throat was big, his speed was fast enough, and as he spoke, he had already stood at the door, pointing at Cheng Dagui who was lying on the bed, he angrily shouted, "Tell me."

Cheng Xi looked at the scene in front of him, her face was filled with astonishment, and only after a while did she manage to calm herself down, so the Wu family had a name that could threaten their life?

Cheng Cai pulled her mother along and advised, "Mother, what are you doing? Daddy is still sick, let's talk properly."

She pointed at Cheng Dagui and continued to shout, "You have no conscience, I served you with all my heart and helped you raise your own child, and the result is that in your heart, you are so ungrateful, what kind of evil did I create, why do you have such a bitter life … …"

Cheng Dagui did not say a word as he sat on the bed with a red face. However, he was still scolded by Lady Wu, he did not say a word.

Looking at this scene, Cheng Xi felt a headache. She had only come here to eat, how did it start again, and this farce was all because of him, shouldn't she come out and comfort her?

"Howl, howl, howl! My son is not dead yet, why are you howling? Shut up!"

Hearing the voice that came from the courtyard outside, Cheng Xi facepalmed with a faint pain. Although Cheng Xi had only heard this voice once, she was deeply impressed.
