Inquire
Chang Gen has a similar temperament to Yang Huazhong. When dealing with people, he never lets the other party suffer, and immediately pays for it.
Hei Feng strongly blocked it, "Uncle Changgen, isn't it just half a pound of brown sugar? You are looking down on me! If you feel bad about it, just come back and take care of my business."
At this point, Chang Gen could no longer hold on, so he took the brown sugar and said a few words of thanks.
"By the way, Uncle Chang Gen, when are you and Aunt Guihua going to send the brown sugar to Qing'an County for Xiao Yu?" Hei Feng asked again.
Chang Gen smiled: "We are busy with farming right now, so how can we have time? Xiao An, the third child, just came back from Qing'an County, and we want him to help carry this brown sugar to Xiao Yu."
A glimmer of light flashed across Heifeng's eyes.
She seemed to accidentally pour another bowl of tea for Chang Gen: "Uncle Chang Gen, come and have a sip of tea."
"I'm not thirsty."
"Oh, it's okay. Just drink it. It's soaked in freshly boiled water this morning."
Hei Feng greeted him warmly and brought a stool for Chang Gen to sit on. In view of the half kilogram of brown sugar just now, Chang Gen was embarrassed to refuse Hei Feng's kindness, so he sat down.
Heifeng also poured a bowl of tea for the fat aunt next to him. The fat aunt was not restrained and sat down to chat together.
"Uncle Changgen, I seemed to see Xiao An when I was bathing by the pond yesterday. I thought I was dazzled, but it turns out he is really back!"
"Well, Xiao An came back yesterday."
"How long can Xiao An stay at home after this trip?" Hei Feng asked again seemingly unintentionally.
She usually likes to inquire, and the small grocery store is like an information relay station in Changping Village. Therefore, neither Chang Gen nor Fat Aunt found it strange to ask her.
Chang Gen continued: "Xiao An should only stay for three to five days when he comes back from this trip."
"Only three to five days..." Heifeng murmured, and he only had three to five days of blessings.
"Xiao An is working in the military department of Qing'an County, right?" she asked again.
"Yeah!" Chang Gen nodded, lowered his head and blew a sip of the foam from the tea leaves in the tea bowl.
"How old is Xiao An this year? Are you twenty?" Hei Feng then asked.
"That must be there." The fat aunt next to her answered.
Chang Gen said: "It's twenty-one."
"Oh, I'm twenty-one, do you want to kiss me?" Hei Feng asked.
Chang Gen shook his head: "I haven't heard anything from Lao San and the others."
Hei Feng smiled with big white teeth in his mouth: "Tsk tsk, Xiao An has such a good condition, why don't you say we're going to get married? Maybe that kid's vision is too high."
Chang Gen smiled and said, "Xiao An's own conditions are good, plus he is a man, so he is not in a hurry."
Hei Feng nodded, "Yes, don't be in a hurry."
Chang Gen sat for a symbolic moment and then stood up to leave, leaving Fat Aunt still sitting here.
"Heifeng, why are you so eager to inquire about Xiao An? What? Do you want the old cow to eat the young grass?"
Heifeng rolled his eyes at the fat aunt, "What, you fat cow are jealous?"
"I'm jealous of you. If you have a book, eat that mouthful of tender grass before we talk!"
"Sure, then I'll eat it for you later, I'll envy you to death!"
"Haha, I think you are not an old cow eating young grass, but a toad trying to eat swan meat."
"You're a toad! Have you never heard of a saying? A man chases a woman across a mountain, and a woman chases a man across a veil. If I really want to eat, I'm sure I'll get it."
The fat aunt shook her head with a look of disbelief.
"I believe this if you apply it to others. You Hei Feng has many tricks, but if you can use it on Xiao An, you might as well forget it. Don't forget that he has a sister you can't afford to offend!"
When Yang Ruoqing was mentioned, Hei Feng's smile was a little weird.
"What's wrong with my sister? She's not his mother. What's more, when my son is older, he can't help his mother!"
"Heifeng, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore. You can brag here alone. I have to go home and cook."
"Go ahead, come back when you have time."
Hei Feng poured out the remaining tea in the tea bowl that Chang Gen and Fat Aunt had drank, got some water and washed the bowl casually, then turned around and went to do other things.
Near noon, Yang Ruoqing helped Sun cook the rice.
Yang Huazhong drove his carriage to the town early in the morning to buy groceries, because his family planned to set up a few tables this afternoon and invite relatives and friends to come and sit for a while and have a meal together to thank them for their care and concern for Xiao An last time.
Xiaoduo and Xiang Shengnan also brought Jiaojiao over. Jiaojiao couldn't walk yet, so Xiaoduo put her in the cradle. Next to the cradle, there were all the girls, Baby Luo, Sister Xiuxiu, and Niuniu from Yang Yongzhi's family.
Here, everyone is teasing Jiaojiao, holding rattles and snacks, it’s so lively.
Jiaojiao excitedly kicked her little feet, clapped her little hands, and made a "bah" sound from her mouth, which made Luo Baobao and the others laugh again.
With so many big sisters helping Jiaojiao, Xiaoduo had nothing to worry about. After giving Xiuxiu and Luo Baobao a few words, he put on an apron and went to the kitchen to join the cooking camp.
"Duo'er, I haven't gone to the pasture to help you take care of your children during this period. How is everything going on over there? Can you guys be busy?" asked Sun while cutting vegetables.
Xiaoduo was rolling up her sleeves when she heard this and said, "Mom, don't worry. Since I invited a few people to help, I have some free time. I can just focus on Jiaojiao."
"That's good." Sun felt relieved now.
"Mom, sister, what should I do? Give me some assignments!" Xiaoduo rolled up her sleeves and asked again.
"Peel the skin off the two gourds in the basket at your feet, wash them and cut them into pieces with a hob, and roast the meat later." Yang Ruoqing ordered.
"Okay!" Xiaoduo immediately got busy.
"Duo'er, you and Shengnan are here today, why don't you bring your uncle over for a meal?" asked Sun again.
"Sheng Nan and I called, but if he doesn't come on his own, there's nothing we can do." The gourd skin in Xiaoduo's hand made a sizzling sound, she curled her lips and said in a teasing tone: "We called, but he didn't come.
, we don’t scream, we craned our necks to come, hehe..."
"Ah? Who is it?" Sun was a little confused.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Who else could it be? It's probably Sheng Nan's father."
"Ah? Duo'er, are you really talking about Sheng Nan's father?" Sun asked again.
Xiaoduo said ‘hmm’.
"When Shengnan and I were changing shoes, he was holding Jiaojiao outside the window, and I heard him teasing Jiaojiao half-heartedly,
'What? You don't want to leave me? Do you want me to hold you? I don't want to leave my little Jiaojiao. Xiaojiaojiao is going to my in-laws' house to eat delicious food. What? Do you want me to go too? Haha, Master
If you don’t go, I will wait for my little Jiaojiao at home, oh~'"
Xiaoduo imitated it vividly, her tone and expression were all online.
Sun and Yang Ruoqing were also dumbfounded. Although they were not at the scene, they could imagine the scene at that time.
"You kid, Master Jiaojiao has already mentioned that, why don't you invite me?" Ms. Sun was a little bit reproachful.
Xiaoduo shook his head: "I don't want to provoke him. Don't we know what kind of person he is? If we call him over, it will be his stage. It will be like setting up a stage for him."
