The Pretty Peasant Wife

Because of the rumors outside, coupled with Cheng Dagui and Lady Wu's argument, the atmosphere at the table was very heavy. Cheng Xi tried her best to adjust the atmosphere, but to no avail.

Even a hundred years old could feel the unhappiness of an adult at a table, and had been obediently eating with his head lowered. He didn't even dare to say anything, and Cheng Qiang had been even more cautious with a reddened face.

Seeing that everyone was like this, Cheng Xi was also helpless, and inwardly, angry at the person who spread the rumor.

And on the first day of the new year, not even a single child came to pay their respects, not even a single person from the Cheng Family Clan. Just as everyone finished eating and the rebellion was about to go on a rampage, Cheng Family Member came over. However, it was not the children who had come, but a group of elders, including the old ladies of the Cheng Family Clan, all of their faces were calm.

Cheng Dagui was the patriarch of the family, even though he was not happy about it, he still politely called for the elders of the Cheng Family Clan to come in and sit down for them, allowing them to serve tea and dried fruits.

When everyone was seated, the old patriarch of Cheng Family who was in her nineties finally spoke, "I believe everyone should have heard about it. Regarding the matter of the Dagui family's Xi, Xi is very obedient.

Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang brought the two children with them as they hid in the ear room to listen, frowning slightly as they had a bad premonition.

The Old Master paused for a moment, then continued: "But there are so many people in our Cheng Family, Dagui, you have to think about our Cheng Family family."

Cheng Dagui also had a sullen face at this time, and asked with some displeasure, "What does Grand Master mean by this?"

Old Master Cheng looked at Cheng Dagui's regretful face and sighed, then replied: "These words were said by me when I was called to the Village Chief's house, and I personally heard from the Blind Lee, the Blind Lee has always been accurate with his words, and you all know about Xu Sanlang, you can't not believe the words he says."

Lady Wu, who was pouring tea for everyone, couldn't help but interject after hearing this. "Hmph, what's so believable about a bullsh * t stick?"

The moment the Wu family opened their mouths, an elder from the Cheng Family scolded, "Shut up. The clan's elders are discussing matters, why are the women interrupting?"

Lady Wu's face was gloomy and full of unwillingness. In the end, she didn't speak again.

At this time, Cheng Dagui also could not hold back his laughter, he had long calmed down, and asked: "Then what did Blind Lee say?"

When the Old Master Li Li heard Cheng Dagui's tone, he slightly frowned, but after thinking about what he was going to say, he suppressed his anger and continued to speak, "You should be thankful to the Wu family, for suppressing the evil aura on your Xi for all these years. But the Blind Lee said that the Xi is the reincarnation of the evil spirit, and the evil spirit of the Wu family was wiped clean by her evil spirit."

Cheng Xi who was in the room was speechless, she still wanted to find the Blind Lee to have a good talk, seems like someone got in ahead of her and went to look for the Blind Lee, Cheng Xi helplessly complained to Xu Sanlang who was at the side, "Who do you think we offended? Why is there always someone who is against us! "

Without hearing any response from Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi turned around to see that Xu Sanlang had a face full of worry.

Cheng Xi said with a smile that was not a smile, "What, do you believe it too?"

Xu Sanlang shook his head and replied, "Let's hear what they have to say."

Another old man in the hall replied, "That's right, I was just saying that the Wu family has come over. Why are they so quiet?"

Cheng Dagui's expression was already rather unsightly, Old Madam Cheng, who was at the side, patted his son's back worriedly, and then heard the Old Master of the clan continuing, "Your injured leg, is most likely related to this. What is more terrifying, is that Xi marrying that, everyone should know what happened to, and I do not need to say more about it, Blind Lee said, the two of them are together, and that would be the source of the calamity. Moreover, it will not only bring disaster to our family, but it will also implicate our village."

At this time, Cheng Dafu and Cheng Dahua also came together, followed by Lady Yu and Ma Xiufen. Upon entering the door, Cheng Dafu laughed lightly and said, "There are matters concerning the Dagui family, why is it that no one has informed us brothers, ha-ha, the Heavenly Demon Twin Stars? Our Cheng Family sure is flattering, being able to produce so many fiends in a row. "

Cheng Dafu seemed to be joking, but on the surface, he wore a disdainful expression. Old Madam Cheng hurriedly spoke up to stop him, "Dafu."

Cheng Dafu didn't say anything more as he found a place to sit with Cheng Dahua at the entrance. Lady Yu and Ma Xiufen stood behind them, together with their child.

Old Master Cheng looked at Cheng Dafu and frowned, but did not bother with him, and continued, "Village head means, the two of them are definitely not allowed to stay in our village anymore. Dagui, don't blame Great Grandfather for being ruthless, Great Grandfather has no other choice, let's not talk about whether they have implicated the villagers, but they must consider the matter for the Cheng Family, so many juniors!"

Cheng Dagui said coldly, "This is our family's matter, I will take care of it myself, so there is no need for the elders to worry."

One of the old men angrily said, "That will implicate our old Cheng Family, how can it be just your family? These two definitely can't stay in the village anymore."

"That's right, we are not such heartless people. Not mentioning what we want to do to them, you should let them leave the village as soon as possible. No matter where they go, the further they go the better."

Yes, Dagui, I know that he is your daughter, and your heart is in pain, but you can't not consider it for everyone. Even if you don't consider it for everyone, you have to consider it for your sons.

"That's right, Dagui."

At this time, Cheng Dagui was so angry that his face and neck had already turned red, and his eyes had long ago reddened. Old Madam Cheng sighed from the side and spoke up with difficulty, "Dagui, you … you …"

Before the old lady could finish her words, Cheng Dafu who did not want to sit at the door opened his mouth first and said disdainfully, "Since all of you elders are afraid that our family will implicate the old Cheng Family, then we might as well expel our entire family."

When the old lady heard his eldest son's words, she shouted angrily, "Dafu, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Unexpectedly, Cheng Dahua also responded, "Big brother is right, then let's chase this group out of the Clan."

Cheng Dagui looked at his big brother and brother with reddened eyes. He never thought that his big brother, who never cared about his family's matters, would actually stand by his side. In order to protect them, he was actually willing to be expelled.

The old lady's eyes reddened as well. She felt both sad and gratified, but she did not speak up to stop him.

The Old Master of the Cheng Family scolded angrily, "Nonsense, this is simply nonsense. You, you are also the descendants of the old Cheng Family, how dare you think like this."

Cheng Dafu laughed lightly in disdain, "Heh, what do we do? Xi is also a descendant of Cheng Family, and there's no room for him in the clan.

The Old Master angrily pointed at Cheng Dafu, "You, you, be good."

Cheng Dafu did not see the Old Master's anger at all, and said to Cheng Chen who was standing at the door: "If that's the case, then there's no need to entrust it to him. Ah Chen, go find some brush and ink, I will write down the clan documents for the Old Master Cheng Family now."

The Old Master was so angry that he kept pointing at Cheng Dafu, "You, you," yet he did not utter a complete sentence for a long time. Beside him, a gloomy-faced old man in his sixties or seventies helped him along, saying, "Dad, don't be angry, since they don't know what's good for them, then we might as well expel them. If there's anything in the future, it's not about our Cheng Family anymore."

"Yes, this grandpa shouldn't be angry."

"That's right, uncle. Since they want to leave their clan, then let them go."

The crowd kept urging the old man, who was so angry that he couldn't even speak, and all of them were in favor of chasing him away.

Cheng Xi, who was hiding in her room, never expected that the situation would turn out like this, even more so, she never expected that his great uncle, who was always drunk and gentle, would actually stand up for her and make such a decision for her. Furthermore, Fourth Uncle agreed with his decision, even the grandmother, who never liked her, did not open her mouth to stop him.

Cheng Xi was moved to tears, but she did not want to implicate them because of her. If they were to be expelled, how would they be able to establish themselves in the village in the future?

Once she made her decision, Cheng Xi turned to Xu Sanlang and said, "Bring them with you and stay here."

Xu Sanlang held Cheng Xi's hand and replied, "I will go out with you." He then turned to the two children behind him and said, "You two stay here obediently."

The two children had experienced quite a few things at such a young age, but they were actually more sensible than their peers as they obediently nodded their heads.

Cheng Xi then followed Xu Sanlang out of the ear room, and after exiting, Cheng Xi said indifferently, "I shall trouble the elders to worry, Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Father, you do not have to be like this, we will break away from the Cheng Family and leave the village."

Cheng Dagui's eyes were red as he scolded, "What nonsense are you spouting, you are father's daughter, you will always be father's daughter, how can father allow you to get away from us and be kicked out of the village?"

Cheng Dafu who was at the door glared at Cheng Xi, and scolded, "Children, stay quietly at the side. Our masters will take care of this matter."

At this time, Cheng Chen had already found a brush and ink so he took it and stood up, then said to the Lady Yu behind him, "Come and help me grind the ink." He then took the brush and ink and walked towards the table.

Cheng Xi quickly went over to stop him, "Uncle …"

However, he was stopped once again by Cheng Dafu's glare, "If you don't listen, obediently go and stay."

Old Madam Cheng waved at Cheng Xi with a gloomy face, and spoke in an angry tone, "Come over here first."

Cheng Xi sighed, and in the end, obediently walked over to Cheng Dagui's side and obediently stood there, not saying another word.

The air became quiet for a moment, and everyone's gaze was focused on Cheng Dafu who was in the middle of the hall, watching Lady Yu grind ink and Cheng Dafu taking out his brush to write on a piece of paper.
