This was the first time that Zheng Shaoxuan held Lin Xiaocao's hand in public. It only took a very short time for him to go from being uneasy about being stared at at the beginning to calmly accepting those strange looks.
Among them, Liu Lezi, who had always been at odds with Huo Tianxiang, made great contributions.
Liu Lezi wandered around the village with nothing to do, stealing chickens and dogs and so on. If he couldn't just pick up sheep, it would be great to pick up a vegetable or two.
Liu Lezi stared at the vegetable garden that Xu Ning carefully tended, and was about to steal some vegetables back. When he looked up, he saw a young couple holding hands walking towards him.
Someone noticed that Liu Laizi could no longer steal the food. After turning around, he deliberately taunted Zheng Shaoxuan and Lin Xiaocao: "Hey~ You bunch of bitches, you want to be intimate, can't you close the door? You hold hands like the pair in the coffin all day long. Are you ashamed to touch your head?"
Zheng Shaoxuan glanced at Liu Lezi with cold eyes, memorizing Liu Lezi's facial contour, and prepared to complain to his brother Huo. The two brothers worked together to find a way to deal with this thing that deserved a beating.
Lin Xiaocao was thin-skinned. She had not wanted to hold hands with Zheng Shaoxuan for a long time. Such an intimate gesture was still too advanced, and people would inevitably make irresponsible remarks after seeing it.
Zheng Shaoxuan noticed Lin Xiaocao's struggle and discomfort, reluctantly let go of her hand, and comforted her: "Xiaocao, don't take it to heart. I remember that this scolded guy, he and Huo Di didn't deal with each other in the first place."
Lin Xiaocao blushed and nodded without saying anything.
Zheng Shaoxuan glanced at the empty palms and rubbed his fingertips. There was still the body temperature of the silly wife in it, and his heart felt warm.
The closer she got to the Xu family, the more nervous Lin Xiaocao became. She didn’t have much experience as a guest, so she hid under Mr. Zheng’s house.
Xuan followed him into Xu's house.
Butcher Xu was chopping firewood when Zheng Shaoxuan came in and called out first: "Uncle Xu, Xiaocao and I are here to visit you."
Butcher Xu regarded Zheng Shaoxuan, who had repaid his kindness as one of his own, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Oh, Shaoxuan, hurry up, hurry up, come in with your wife! Ning Niang! Come out and entertain the guests!"
Lin Xiaocao timidly came to Butcher Xu and called out: "Uncle Xu."
When Butcher Xu saw Lin Xiaocao's head peeking out from behind Zheng Shaoxuan, he smiled and said, "Hey! You are Shaoxuan's wife! Hey, Shaoxuan, you are very lucky. Xiaocao looks like she is virtuous and capable. Good wife. Come on, come on, Xiaocao, treat this as your own home, feel free to do whatever you want. Shaoxuan, you come to the house often, don’t treat yourself as a guest, lead your wife around well. change."
Zheng Shaoxuan saw that Lin Xiaocao was so nervous that he didn't dare to say another word, so he had to take the initiative to do the work: "Uncle Xu, let me help you build the firewood stack."
"How can this be done..."
Butcher Xu received Zheng Shaoxuan's look for help, looked at Lin Xiaocao's blushing face with embarrassment, cleared his throat and said, "Xiaocao, look at me chopping so much firewood, I'm so tired that I can't lift my hands. You and I Shaoxuan, please help me build a pile of firewood."
"Okay, uncle, take a rest."
When she heard that there was work to be done, Lin Xiaocao's expression instantly became lively. When she was busy, she had no time to think and do something for the Xu family.
Butcher Xu felt heartbroken when he saw this. Thinking of his late wife who had a similar personality to Lin Xiaocao, a bitterness welled up in his mouth that was difficult to dissolve.
Taking advantage of the moment when Lin Xiaocao left with firewood in his arms,
, Butcher Xu specifically said to Zheng Shaoxuan: "Shaoxuan, Xiaocao is so hardworking and capable, you must treat her well."
"Uncle, I can." Zheng Shaoxuan nodded heavily and said in a low voice: "Uncle, Xiaocao tends to think too much when she is free. Finding something for her to do can make her feel at ease."
Butcher Xu patted Zheng Shaoxuan on the shoulder and said: "Shaoxuan, I know that Chao'er came to you to make ink. Chao'er said you should give you a share, just agree. Chao'er often said that brothers will settle accounts tomorrow. , If he is honest, he will give you as much as he deserves. I have a stable and profitable business, and I can do it for at least another three to five years. You young people, just do what you want to do. I have my uncle at home to take care of everything."
Butcher Xu's strong support made Zheng Shaoxuan so moved that his eyes became wet and he nodded repeatedly: "Uncle, I know."
While Butcher Xu and Zheng Shaoxuan were moving firewood to build the firewood pile together, Xu Ning and Huo Yunchao were chatting in a low voice in the kitchen: "Ms. sir, how do you arrange work for Brother Zheng and Sister Xiaocao?"
Huo Yunchao said without turning his head: "Sister Xiaocao must be nervous. When she gets nervous, she will find a job. Father Xu is quite similar to Sister Xiaocao in some places."
"what?"
"Dad Xu just came to the kitchen with you. He didn't come in because he heard me talking to you privately..."
Before Huo Yunchao could say Meng Lang's words, Xu Ning covered him with his hands, preventing him from saying those nonsense words.
Huo Yunchao laughed a few times. He just loved teasing Xu Ning. His beautiful daughter-in-law blushed, and her good looks were about to reach the sky.
"Madam, the dishes are almost done. Brother Zheng and Xiao
Sister Cao is a guest after all, so you can't let them do too much work. You go out and entertain them. Well, take this plate of pumpkin seeds out to knock with Sister Xiaocao. I can do all the work in the kitchen. "
Xu Ning responded and went out to entertain the guests with pumpkin seeds.
Huo Yunchao looked back several times. Just looking at his sweetheart's back could make him feel the beauty and sweetness of life.
Hey hey hey, Huo Yunchao giggled a few times and stir-fried with a spoon.
This little life in another world is really getting more and more exciting.
After Xu Ning came out to entertain the guests, Lin Xiaocao's nervousness obviously eased a lot. She sat quietly on a chair and chatted with Xu Ning about household matters while peeling pumpkin seeds. She was reluctant to eat them and put the peeled seeds on the plate. inside.
Such a familiar scene, Xu Ning immediately thought that Huo Yunchao would always peel the melon seeds for her in advance, and all she had to do was put them in her mouth.
The person who peeled the melon seeds was replaced by Lin Xiaocao. Xu Ning felt soft and poured some from the plate into the palm of his hand. He said in a somewhat tough tone: "Sister Xiaocao, you are just peeling the melon seeds. You can try it first." Let’s see if the melon seeds fried by my husband are delicious.”
"This this……"
Lin Xiaocao had obviously not yet entered the role of a guest. She hesitated for a long time, and then put the melon seeds into her mouth under Xu Ning's insistent gaze.
Lin Xiaocao blushed and chewed a few times, then her eyes suddenly lit up, "Why, why are these melon seeds so fragrant?"
Xu Ning and Yourong said: "The fragrance is just right! My husband put some salt in it and stir-fried it until the heat is just right. Sister Xiaocao, if you like, eat more. I've already packed a bowl for you. Just take it home, son. Don’t be embarrassed, I grew this pumpkin myself.
Yes, the melon seeds are fried by my husband, and they are not worth much. Sister Xiaocao, my husband said that people should eat more melon seeds. Pumpkin seeds are good for the body. "
Lin Xiaocao looked at Xu Ning for a moment, unable to say any more words of rejection, and thanked her with a smile: "Ning Niang, thank you."
Xu Ning said happily: "Sister Xiaocao, my sisters don't have to be so polite. My husband said that he is going to use bamboo to make paper, but the bamboo must be cut down and soaked in water for half a year. Sister Xiaocao, the hemp rope you gave me It just happened to come in handy, it really helped us a lot.”
Lin Xiaocao stood up and asked, "Can Di Huo make paper?"
