The Pretty Peasant Wife

Mrs. Wu replied, "That Xu Erlang is not a good person, he just messed around with some people who don't care much. He had just suffered at our hands and will not let it go, we can't be at ease with you two going back."

Hearing what Lady Wu said, Cheng Xi remembered the scene when she first went up the mountain to chop firewood with Xu Sanlang, and could only sigh and reply, "Alright."

Along the way, Cheng Xi could not help but complain, "What the hell is going on here? It's only been one morning since they came back, and the people who came here to cause trouble are all over the place, who dares to provoke."

Lady Wu patted Cheng Xi's shoulders and comforted him, "As long as you are tough, your life will definitely be better."

At the very least, Cheng Xi still had a husband who stood by her side, and she still had a family that doted on her. Back then, when she, the man died, her family members would still be bullied by the orphans and widows for them to bully, and it wasn't that she was strong enough, she was afraid that she had been scammed to death by the Ma family long ago.

Thinking about the huge pile of work on the ground, Cheng Xi asked, "Can you break half of the corn stalks today?"

Lady Wu replied, "Sanlang is able to work, with his speed, half will definitely be fine."

When she thought about how she would have to take three days of leave to come back and help out, and then return to the county tomorrow, Cheng Xi looked at Lady Wu with a pained expression and said, "I'm afraid the rest of the work will fall to Aunt Wu again."

Madame Wu saw the worry in Cheng Xi's eyes, and her heart was moved, she never thought that she would have such a day, even her stepdaughter who did not like her before started to care for her, she felt that no matter how much hardship she had to endure, she still felt happy in her heart.

Even though she thought that in her heart, Lady Wu still smiled and replied, "It's fine, your Fourth Uncle said that after you finished your work, come and help us."

When she thought about the Fourth Uncle, on the other hand, they were all warm-hearted people. The last time they came to help out, they helped out, so Cheng Xi felt a lot more at ease.

When they returned to their doorsteps, they saw San Ya and Siya playing at the doorstep. When the two girls saw that Cheng Xi had returned, they excitedly ran over to him.

Cheng Xi smiled as she walked forward, extended her hand and caressed Four Yards' head, and asked: "Why are you all here?"

"Second Sister, we came here together with Father and Mother. Third Sister and I have been waiting at the entrance for you to come back."

Cheng Xi smiled as she praised her, "Siya is so obedient."

San Ya said excitedly from the side, "Second Sister, did you come back from the county city? Is it fun in the county? When are you going to take us to play in the county? You promised me before, you're not allowed to go back on your words. "

Just as San Ya was lost in thought, San Ya's mother, Mrs. Song, came out of her room, and scolded softly, "Do you think your Second Sister is going to the county to play? And you? What can I do with you? Causing trouble for your Second Sister? "Not the least bit sensible."

San Ya pouted in dissatisfaction and muttered, "Obviously Second Sister promised me." Seeing the way Madame Song was looking at her, it seemed as if she was about to get angry. She quickly shut her mouth.

Seeing that she was scolded by his mother, San Ya lowered her head in depression, and comforted her with a smile, "Second Sister will definitely do what I promised you, but I can't do anything about it now. Second Sister is still living on someone else's land, when Second Sister has a place to stay, I'll bring you guys over to play."

Madame Song said, "These two girls have been spoiled by his father. Don't get used to them. It's getting more and more out of hand."

Lady Wu laughed and said, "You, let the children handle their own matters. Let them enter the house first. Why are you here today?"

"I heard that Xi and the others had returned, so I came to look for you, and conveniently called you over for lunch. Since Xi left his house, she hasn't eaten at my house, and they rarely stayed in the village. I heard that they had returned early in the morning, so I decided to prepare lunch."

Cheng Xi said embarrassedly: "We did not visit the Fourth Aunt."

Madame Song smiled and replied, "Isn't this a ready-made opportunity? Dahua was talking to Second Brother in the house and agreed to let Dahua carry him there. "

Behind Cheng Xi, Xu Sanlang who was carrying the corn on his back the whole time, suddenly spoke out, "Sorry to trouble Fourth Aunt."

Song Family who was just talking and laughing, actually responded with a stutter in front of Xu Sanlang, "No, you're welcome."

Cheng Xi saw the worried and fearful expression the Song Family had as they faced Xu Sanlang, and sighed in his heart. It seemed that the majority of the villagers believed that Xu Sanlang was their mortal enemy, so even if Cheng Xi knew about this, she could not explain Xu Sanlang to them.

Xu Sanlang had long since gotten used to all kinds of strange looks, and although the Song Family was also worried and afraid, they still mustered up their courage to speak to Xu Sanlang. This was already very rare, and Xu Sanlang rarely came in contact with people, so he did not feel that anything was amiss.

The Song Family had already prepared lunch, so it was not good for Cheng Xi and her family to reject him.

On the way, Madame Wu asked curiously, "Your whole family is here, and no one is staying at home?"

"Granny is at my house. Originally, it was Dahua and I who came over, leaving the two children at home with their mother. Who knew that these two devilish children would come over to fetch Second Sister."

When Lady Wu heard what Madame Song said, she frowned, "Granny is here?"

Madame Song saw the expression on Lady Wu's face and knew that her mother-in-law and Lady Wu were not dealing with each other, so she went over and explained in a low voice, "It's not me, I don't know why she suddenly came over by herself. When she heard that I wanted to treat Xi to a meal with you, she didn't say anything and even busied herself to help me, the sun is setting in the west."

When Lady Wu heard Madame Song's words, her eyes widened in shock. "Really?"

Mrs. Song nodded, "How could I lie to you about this? Don't you know what's going on? "

Lady Wu shook her head and replied, "In the morning, she even made a scene at my house with that troublemaker." With that, Lady Wu's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands as she replied, "It must be because of what Xi said, Grandma did not have such bad intentions towards you, and would not have so many bad things to say. Let me tell you, Xi must have tried to drug that bad heart of yours in front of Grandma this morning …"

After that, the two of them got together and chatted as they walked. The more they talked, the happier they got.

As for Cheng Xi, he was entangled by Erya and San Ya, and was asking around curiously. Cheng Xi was also patiently explaining to the two of them.

Cheng Dahua originally wanted to carry Cheng Dagui, but was rejected by him. Since Cheng Dagui insisted on going over with his walking stick, Cheng Dahua could only follow along with him. Each of them supported Cheng Dagui at the same time.

Perhaps because after hearing about the old lady from Cheng Dahua, it was rare for him to keep a smile on his face, and it was even rare for him to not show any expression.

The two families' small courtyards were not that far away, but because of Cheng Dagui's legs, they did not walk very fast. After walking for nearly fifteen minutes, they finally saw the small courtyard in front of them.

This was Cheng Xi's first time here, so she had a careful look at the place. It should be around the size of her father's courtyard, with Old Madam Cheng standing at the entrance.

Old Madam Cheng looked at Cheng Dagui who was being supported, and frowned as she scolded, "Fourth Brother, why are you letting your Second Brother walk on his own, aren't you letting him walk on your own?"

Cheng Dagui hurriedly replied, "Mother, I'm fine, I was just thinking of walking on my own, and also wanted to try out the new walking stick Xi ordered for me."

obediently stood to the side. When Old Madam Cheng saw Xu Sanlang, her brows slightly knitted, but she did not say anything.

Cheng Xi was satisfied, at least, she did not look at Xu Sanlang and kicked him out.

After everyone ate lunch together, Cheng Xi urged Xu Sanlang to go down to work. The Old Madam Cheng actually had such a rare opportunity to get help from her fourth son and her wife.

On the way, Lady Wu said emotionally, "In the past, mother-in-law really wanted me to finish all my work, but I didn't expect there would be such a day."

"Granny still loves Second Brother dearly."

Lady Wu sighed and said, "That's right. I've gotten the better of him."

With more people, the day was busy, most of the corn had gone, and Cheng Xi was extremely tired. After eating dinner and washing himself, Cheng Xi went back to her room early and laid on her bed motionless.
