Chapter 153: Scheming (2)

So, this matter may take time.

Ruan Lin also knew that what she said was not easy to do, and sighed, as if she had foreseen the endless troubles in the future...

Xu Xu, who was standing at the door, happened to hear this, his green eyes deepened, and he left the door quietly.

----

Afternoon.

Xu Xu took advantage of Ruan Jiaojiao's meal and went out again. He did not come out from the back mountain until after four o'clock in the afternoon, holding two pheasants in his hands.

Ruan Jianguo saw it from the building where he was knee-high, and ran out in a hurry, saying anxiously: "Why did you go to the back mountain again, kid? It's so unsafe. Give me this pheasant..."

As he said that, he was about to take the pheasant in his hand, fearing that the team members saw it and Liu Mei would hear about it and cause trouble.

But Xu Xu did not hand the pheasant to him, but leaned sideways to avoid his action.

Ruan Jianguo looked at him in surprise.

"Xiao Xu?"

"Take it back to Xu's house." Xu Xu said.

"You want to take it back to your home?" Ruan Jianguo asked suspiciously.

Xu Xu nodded, but still defended himself: "Xu's house." In his heart, that was not his home.

"Why?"

Xu Xu did not answer. He was not good at speaking, and he could not explain this matter clearly in a few words. He could only stare at Ruan Jianguo.

Ruan Jianguo thought that he still cared about the Xu family, even though the Xu family treated him so badly. He sighed helplessly. He was not greedy for his things, but was afraid that he would be wronged. Seeing this, he said, "Okay, you take it back."

Xu Xu nodded and walked towards the team.

Ruan Jianguo looked at his back for a long time, until the workers over there urged him, he retracted his gaze.

Xu Xu was walking on the road with a pheasant in his hand. Many people saw him and asked him curiously where the pheasant was. Xu Xu did not answer or pay attention to them. He just walked to the door of Xu's house.

Liu Mei has been in a bad mood since she lost so many poultry last time. She is not happy with everything. She even scolded Xu Cheng several times.

Now she was scolding in the yard, pointing fingers at others. She saw Xu Xu standing at the door with two pheasants. Her eyebrows immediately raised. She dropped the broom in her hand and came out to greet him.

"Hey, Xiao Xu, where did you bring these pheasants from? They are so fat. Come on, come on, show them to mom. Mom cooked them for you so that you can have a good meal at noon."

As she said that, she reached out to take the pheasant.

Xu Xu did not hide and let her take the pheasant.

The pheasant weighing more than ten or twenty kilograms felt heavy in her hands. She smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits and all her teeth were exposed. She looked at Xu Xu with extremely gentle eyes, as if she was looking at her own beloved treasure.

Glancing at Ruan Linshi coming out from next door, Liu Mei immediately straightened her chest and raised her voice to shout, "Auntie Ruan, look at these two big pheasants, how plump they are. My son just brought them back. This guy is a native after all. His surname is Xu, and he can't be fooled by other people's small favors."

Seeing Ruan Linshi's gloomy face and silence, Liu Mei was very happy in her heart, and she deliberately asked, "Auntie Ruan, is that so?"

Ruan Linshi looked at her smug look, snorted coldly, and was too lazy to pay attention to her. But when her eyes fell on Xu Xu, her eyes were a little complicated, but she didn't say anything in the end, and turned back to the yard.
