Chapter 1324 Root Solution
The next day, a peddler came to the village to sell his wares. Liu Pingping used the excuse of buying silk thread and prepared to approach him to start a conversation. In fact, she wanted to find out which pawnshop would accept babies.
After Lianyi's spiritual consciousness spread out, in full view of everyone, Liu Pingping fell flat on her face, and then by chance she fell into the arms of the peddler.
The peddler was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by Liu Pingping. Then the two of them had mouth-to-mouth contact and had physical contact in front of a group of gossipy women in the village.
This was like a drop of water falling into a frying pan. Not only was Liu Pingping stunned, but even the peddler was unable to react.
"Ouch! How could they hug each other and kiss each other in broad daylight? How shameless! Ugh!"
The voice of a young woman brought everyone back to reality. Liu Pingping climbed up from the peddler's body in a panic and ran home crying. She knew that her reputation was ruined.
The peddler also climbed up, then bowed to the women who came to buy things around him and said:
"Ladies and aunts, although I am a peddler who walks the streets selling goods, I have never done anything to offend a woman. You saw it just now. It was that young lady who rushed towards me. I was completely unprepared."
The people around really saw it. It was Liu Pingping who was running towards this side in a hurry. Then she was tripped by something and then fell into the arms of the peddler. They really couldn't blame Zhang the peddler.
"Zhang the peddler, we all saw what happened. It's not your fault, but you have ruined the girl's innocence. You have to give an explanation!"
An elderly woman named Sun said that after all, they were girls from the village and they must be protected.
"this"
"Let's go to Liu's house to meet Pingping's family first."
After Grandma Sun finished speaking, she turned to the young wife beside her and said:
"Cui Lian, go to the field and ask Old Man Liu to come home and explain the matter briefly."
"Okay, mother-in-law."
Cui Lian was the youngest daughter-in-law of Grandma Sun. After hearing her mother-in-law's instructions, she picked up the corner of her coarse cloth skirt and ran to the field.
Lianyi withdrew her spiritual consciousness when she saw that the team heading towards her house was growing larger and larger. Just now, Liu Pingping had returned crying and was howling in her room. Old Mrs. Liu didn't understand why and was asking her youngest daughter what had happened.
Zhuang Sisi picked up her daughter and listened to the noise in the yard with a frown on her face. She had been working with her daughter on her back these past two days. Even if her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were at home, she would not leave the child to them.
Because she noticed that there was something wrong in the way these two people looked at her daughter, as a mother, she immediately became alert, so she never left her daughter's side.
Since Hehua had passed the first three months of pregnancy, she and her husband had been doing some light work at home, such as cooking, feeding chickens, cleaning, and washing clothes. In short, they were busy all day. She seemed to have heard the conspiracy between her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and she specifically reminded her sister-in-law to keep an eye on Daya, so Zhuang Sisi became even more alert.
"Pingping, what happened? Why did you come back crying?"
Lotus slipped into her sister-in-law's room and asked softly.
"I don't know. She's been out a lot lately and I don't know what she's doing."
Zhuang Sisi shook her head.
Lotus hugged Lianyi curiously and kissed her on the little face with a smile. Lianyi rolled her eyes helplessly. This man always looked like a pervert every time he saw her and insisted on kissing her. She was so enthusiastic that she couldn't refuse.
"Da Ya is so easy to raise. She doesn't cry or make a fuss. She will even hum when she's hungry or needs to poop. She's so well behaved. I wish the one in my belly could be as well behaved."
Lotus said enviously.
Zhuang Sisi touched her daughter's little head and said with a loving smile:
"Daya loves her mother very much. She never makes a fuss at night. She just whines when her father wakes up and goes to sleep after she has been helped to urinate. Anyway, I have no milk now, but she still enjoys eating porridge. She has even gained some weight and is now fully established.
I think my daughter brought me good luck. She took good care of me during the confinement period, so I didn’t suffer from any illnesses, and my hands and feet are no longer cold in winter.”
Lian Yi thought, how could it be bad? After drinking so much diluted spiritual spring water, even a dead person would come back to life.
The two sisters-in-law were still chatting when they heard the villagers coming into her yard with a lot of noise, surrounding a peddler.
"I'll go see what's going on. You watch over Daya. You can't let anything go wrong with so many people around."
Zhuang Sisi immediately stood up and said.
"Well, sister-in-law, be careful. If you feel something is wrong, go and call father-in-law and the others."
Lotus touched her belly and said, this is not the time to show off.
After Zhuang Sisi ran out, she was pulled over by the young wife she knew well and told her the whole story. After hearing what she said, Zhuang Sisi's mouth twitched.
At this time, Old Lady Liu also learned the whole story from her daughter. She almost fainted, picked up the small broom on the kang and rushed out. Looking at the peddler Zhang who was surrounded by people, she shouted angrily:
"You scoundrel! You ruined my daughter's innocence! I will beat you to death!!!"
Lianyi felt that this old lady Liu only cared about eating and not about being beaten, so she asked her to perform a flat fall in front of everyone again.
"Bang!" With a standard prostration posture, he fell at the feet of Zhang the peddler.
Zhang the peddler was so frightened that he immediately jumped up and kept saying:
"Everyone saw it. She fell on her own. It has nothing to do with me!"
The villagers who were watching were all speechless. It seemed that Liu Pingping learned this skill of falling on flat ground from her mother.
"Everyone make way, Uncle Liu is back."
The people watching the excitement at the door shouted, and everyone consciously made way. Old Man Liu came back with the eldest and second sons. The third son had gone to the town to do odd jobs and had not been home for the past two days.
Zhuang Sisi immediately stepped forward and helped her mother-in-law up, and then the family entered the main house. Zhang the peddler who was involved in the incident and Mrs. Sun who knew the whole story were kept behind.
The remaining people who came to watch the fun were invited away by Liu Dashan and Liu Dachuan, and then the two of them also entered the main house.
Zhuang Sisi didn't want to get involved, so she turned around and went back to her room and told her sister-in-law who was helping to look after the children about Liu Pingping.
"Tsk tsk, now Liu Pingping's plan to marry into the next village has completely gone down the drain."
Lotus said with some gloating.
It's not that she was jealous of Liu Pingping, but she felt that one should eat as much as the bowl could give her, and not be concerned about the glory of other people's families. Although the title of a student was glorious in the surrounding villages, it was just a nice title and not enough to eat or drink.
Marry a man and you will have to provide him with clothes and food. Liu Pingping herself is incredibly lazy. If she marries him, she will have to do housework, farm, embroider and support his studies. She will not get any benefits and will definitely make trouble after a long time. In the end, it will still be the Liu family who will clean up her mess.
"If the mother-in-law is smart, she should take the opportunity to marry off my sister-in-law. After all, the peddler Zhang lives in the town. He got the upper hand this time. The betrothal gift will definitely not be low. With this money, my brother-in-law can get married."
Lotus said in a low voice.
After hearing this, Zhuang Sisi's eyes flashed, but she nodded silently. Maybe this thing could really succeed.
