The Pretty Peasant Wife

In the next two days, Xu Sanlang did not even have a chance to eat with the Xu Family Member. Every time before dinner, the Old Madam Xu would send someone over to deliver the food over, not giving Cheng Xi the chance to eat at the main house.

Originally, Cheng Xi wanted to go to the main house and take care of Old Madam Xu, but since Old Madam Xu didn't give her the chance, she was happy to not see anything at all. She stayed in the side room with Xu Sanlang quietly and tirelessly for half a year, and finally had the chance to rest.

During this time, Xu Sanlang no longer came back but instead came back once more. The moment he opened his mouth, Cheng Xi more or less understood his purpose for coming here, and once again, wanted to be the lobbyist, so as to make Cheng Xi force Xu Sanlang to send the Fann Family child away. Cheng Xi was too lazy to listen to his fake words, and so, he brought up the matter of bringing back a hundred years with him again.

Originally, Cheng Dagui and the Wu family were still angry with Cheng Xi because she agreed to leave the hundred year old child behind, but Cheng Chen did not take this to heart, she was only worried that Cheng Xi did not suffer any grievances at Xu Family, hence she hid her presence from her elders to visit Cheng Xi once. The Xu Family was also not obstructed, allowing the two of them to go to the side room where Cheng Xi lived.

Such a leisurely day, with a blink of an eye, two days had passed, and it was finally New Year's Eve. Early in the morning, Cheng Xi found a new set of clothes that she had specially modified yesterday, causing Xu Sanlang to change into the hundred years old set of clothes, and even though they were still the same color, with some small changes from Cheng Xi, the clothes still fit him well, and the three of them looked at their new clothes with satisfaction. Xu Sanlang was happy, as though he had picked up a treasure together.

On New Year's Eve, it was a family's reunion dinner, so even if Xu Family Member was not happy to see Xu Sanlang, or even if shshewas unhappy to eat at the same table as them, she would have to endure it. On the surface, he still had to do it well, but Xu Wenyu was counting on Xu Sanlang to bring him to see the people from Zhao Family after the new year.

Xu Sanlang had originally planned to stay in this side of the house obediently, but he didn't expect that the breakfast wouldn't arrive this morning. Cheng Xi was not planning to make herself hungry, and just as she was thinking about going to the main house to find breakfast, Xu Lan came over, saying that the old lady had asked them to go to the main house, and that their family was going to eat together for the new year.

Of course, Cheng Xi would not be courteous to him. After tidying things up for a while, the three of them slowly walked out of the house and followed Xu Lan towards the main house.

At this time, the entire Xu Family was already seated on the table and breakfast had already been prepared. As everyone was waiting impatiently, Xu Sanlang finally brought the child along.

When they saw the three people dressed neatly appear at the entrance of the hall, on the Xu Family members' faces, besides shock, there was more disgust, jealousy and disgust, but they did not dare to brazenly show it. Those who would pretend, looked at the fake smiles on their faces, and did not pretend nor did they dare to pretend.

Facing all kinds of colorful faces, Cheng Xi seemed to be unable to see anything, and said to the Xu Family Member with a smile that was not a smile, "Sorry for the wait."

However, Lady Lee was too lazy to do it on the surface. Seeing that all of them were dressed in new clothes and it was even a good cloth, she could not help but feel jealous and snorted coldly, "You uncultured thing, you slept till late in the morning and even made a whole family wait."

Seeing that Lady Lee did not take his warning seriously at all, and matched it with Cheng Xi in the blink of an eye, Xu Wenyu's eyes gradually darkened, but he did not stop her scolding Cheng Xi. When he saw that Cheng Xi and her group of people were dressed in their new clothes, showing off in front of him, he was extremely disgusted, and since Lady Lee was going to stand out, he decided to just let her scold him.

As usual, Xu Sanlang's face was ashen. As usual, he was already accustomed to Xu Family Member's various humiliating and angry curses, but these few insults did not change Xu Sanlang's expression. Cheng Xi was not angry at all, and said with a smile that was not a smile, "Yo, shouldn't this second aunt have thought about it in front of the ancestor? "Why did you come out and bounce around again?"

The one hundred years old in Xu Sanlang's embrace was especially sensitive. As if he felt the Xu Family Member's ill intent, he nestled into Xu Sanlang's embrace in great fear, and didn't even dare to raise his face. Feeling the child's fear, Xu Sanlang lightly patted the one hundred years old child's back.

Lady Lee thought about how she was locked up by two people in the Ancestral Hall, then looked at the proud and complacent culprit in front of him, the anger started burning again, she threw Xu Wenyu's warning out of the window, "You little slut, do you know how to speak? Who are you referring to?"

When Cheng Xi saw Lady Lee hopping up and down in her anger, the smile on her face became even more brilliant, and did not look like she was angry at all. Cheng Xi said with a calm smile, "Who should say who?"

At this time, Lady Lee had already angrily stood up from her seat, looking as if she was planning to rush up and fight with Cheng Xi. Xu Wenyu secretly cursed Lady Lee's incompetence in his heart, and in the end, was unable to continue watching the two of them making trouble.

Old Madam Xu was actually quite willing for Lady Lee to rush over and teach that arrogant little girl a lesson, but seeing the look in her son's eyes, she was still able to maintain her rationality, taking out the aura of an elder, and scolded loudly, "What are you saying, it's the new year, haven't you kneeled enough in the Ancestral Hall?"

Lady Lee glared fiercely at Cheng Xi, and no matter how unwilling she was, she could only endure and sit down.

At this time, Xu Wenyu also called out in a timely manner, "It's the new year, let's not talk about all the bad things, we're all family, what problems do we have that we can't go over, Sanlang, Xi, come sit over here, we're waiting for you guys to come over for dinner."

Cheng Xi looked at the food on the table and really waited for them. Inside the hall, there were still two tables, the old lady, the Xu Family man and the woman, and the child.

But Cheng Xi treated her specially, leaving her and Xu Sanlang's seats at the main table.

The first seat was occupied by the Old Madam Xu, while Xu Family leader and Xu Wenyu sat on the left side of the table. Second Brother and Xu Erlang sat on the right side of the table, where the next seat was empty, obviously reserved for Xu Sanlang.

Cheng Xi looked at the table of women and children, the seats were all full and there were no seats, so she did not plan to be polite either, and sat with Xu Sanlang at the main table.

When Xu Sanlang was seated, Old Madam Xu took the initiative to pick up his chopsticks and said, "Let's start the meal." The Xu Family people started to eat.

The meal on the table was quite sumptuous, but the meat was still not too much. The main table was still considered good, but the other table had long been snatched away in order to eat more meat.

For the past two days, Cheng Xi and the others had only eaten their fill, but other than some meat from the morning of the day before yesterday, and after that, perhaps Xu Wenyu was angered by Cheng Xi and did not specially take care of them, he did not see any more meat.

The chopsticks kept reaching towards the only two plates of meat, continuously filling up his own bowl, and even piled Xu Sanlang's bowl into a small mountain.

Seeing that more than half of the two plates of meat had entered Cheng Xi's and Xu Sanlang's bowls, the people on the table started to feel uneasy, Old Madam Xu's face became gloomy, and Xu Erlang's eyes seemed to occasionally shoot towards them as if he had been poisoned. Boss Xu and Second Brother Xu's expressions did not look too good either.

The only one who could be considered calm and collected was Xu Wenyu, the one who claimed that he was the only one to do great things, he did not really care about this sort of food.

But someone as calm as Xu Wenyu, when he saw the chopsticks on the table flying back and forth like blades of light and sword images, he could not help but frown and lightly coughed to remind the owner of the chopsticks to restrain himself.

It was just that right now, everyone was only thinking about the dishes on the table, how could they hear Xu Wenyu's warning, the chopsticks on the table continued to fight.

Especially Xu Erlang, when he was making trouble for Cheng Xi, a dim light flashed across Cheng Xi's eyes, and after that, the chopsticks in her hand always extended towards the old lady's hand. Under Cheng Xi's unremitting efforts, Xu Erlang's chopsticks finally managed to send Old Madam Xu's chopsticks flying.

When the others, including Xu Erlang, saw that the old lady's chopsticks had been sent flying, they all wanted to remedy the situation in time.

Looking at the stunned expressions of everyone on the table, Cheng Xi tried her best to resist the urge to laugh out loud. She even pretended to be mature and scolded Xu Erlang with a straight face, "Why is Second Brother so rude, to the point where she sent her chopsticks flying."

Xu Erlang gritted his teeth as he glared at Cheng Xi in anger, "You … obviously it's you …"

Cheng Xi innocently shrugged her shoulders, "Second Brother's ability to spout lies is really getting stronger and stronger, you can even blame it on me."

The Old Madam Xu swept a glance at Cheng Xi with a gloomy face, and in the end, scolded Xu Erlang, "You shameless thing, scram to the kitchen to eat."

Xu Erlang was so angry that his face and neck turned red, and just as he was about to throw a tantrum with Cheng Xi, Second Brother Xu who was at the side suddenly kicked his own son, warning him with a stare. Xu Erlang could only swallow his anger, and angrily go back to the kitchen.

The war at the table ended with Xu Erlang's departure.

Just as everyone was panicking to save the old lady's chopsticks, Cheng Xi managed to protect herself and Xu Sanlang's bowls in time, and the mess on the table did not affect her and Xu Sanlang's food at all. Seeing that the messy dishes on the table could not be moved into the bowl, Cheng Xi calmed down and began to eat quietly, and from time to time, she would exchange glances with Xu Sanlang and feed the hundred years old man in Xu Sanlang's arms.

The people on the table saw the mess on the table, how could they still have chopsticks, seeing Xu Sanlang's big bowl filled up, and even had such a sweet taste, they all wanted to grab the bowls and throw them at their heads.

The breakfast on New Year's Eve ended just like that, with Xu Sanlang's face full of satisfaction and the rest's faces filled with resentment.
