Chapter 11 Second Aunt Comes to the House
In the morning, Liu Cuilan got up to cook. As soon as she opened the door, she was frightened by the situation in the yard and screamed.
There was a person hanging upside down on the big apricot tree in the yard, face down. I don’t know if it was because he had been hanging for too long, but his face was swollen and dark red.
When he saw her come out, he felt like he had seen a savior.
But there was something stuck in his mouth, and he stammered and shook his head desperately, but he couldn't say a word.
Liu Cuilan looked carefully at the thing stuffed in the man's mouth and felt that it looked a little familiar. Wait, isn't this the smelly socks of her second son?
Just when she was wondering, Su Xiaoxiao came out of the room, rubbing her messy head. When she saw the person hanging in the yard, she was stunned for a moment, and her broken brain finally started up with difficulty.
I was puzzled and immediately told Liu Cuilan what happened last night.
"This bastard actually wants to bully you? He doesn't want to live anymore."
Liu Cuilan cursed angrily, went back to the house, picked up the bamboo sweeping stick, and started beating Chen Guangyuan in the face.
By the time she finally vented her anger, Chen Guangyuan had already scored three goals and was successfully knocked unconscious again.
After breakfast, Su Xiaoxiao and her two younger brothers cleared the table, while Su Fusheng and Su Wenbing found a cart and pushed the unconscious Chen Guangyuan to the town public security bureau.
Liu Cuilan took a sip of water and was about to go out to work when there was a sudden loud knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
A sharp female voice sounded outside the courtyard gate, and it sounded a little familiar.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly realized that the person outside the door was none other than her cheap second aunt Zhang Guifen.
Liu Cuilan disliked this sister-in-law from the bottom of her heart.
She walked over with a cold face, opened the gate, and stood at the door and asked, "Sister-in-law, what can I do for you?"
There was no intention of letting anyone in at all.
Zhang Guifang was thick-skinned and didn't care about the other party's unwelcome. She just squeezed in from the side with her son Su Xiaobao.
As soon as he entered the yard, he looked around with disdain and walked straight into the house with an arrogant look on his face.
"Where's that girl Xiaoxiao? Ask her to come out so I can talk to her about something."
As he was talking, he had already walked into the house and sat down on a stool.
Su Xiaoxiao just saw someone in the game buying wild mugwort, and was thinking of going out and calling the fourth and fifth brothers to get some together.
At this moment, mugwort is everywhere in the mountains and plains, and it can be said that it is a business with no capital.
Bring the mugwort back and dry it, leaving the mugwort leaves, which can be sold for seven yuan per pound.
As soon as I went out, I saw a middle-aged woman with the popular short perm sitting in the main room.
Next to her was a little boy of about six or seven years old, who was holding a piece of wet candy in his hand and licking it bit by bit.
Her two adopted brothers were staring at the candy in the little boy's hand, their saliva almost dripping onto the ground.
Su Xiaobao looked at his two cousins with disdain, and deliberately stuffed the candy into his mouth, biting it with a crunching sound.
When Zhang Guifang saw Su Xiaoxiao come out, she seemed to have just noticed the two children. She rummaged through her pockets and pulled out two candies. She smiled and waved at them, "Come here, Second Aunt will treat you to some candy."
One of them stuffed a piece of fruit candy in his hand, and then he seemed to suddenly see Su Xiaoxiao, and said to her with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, come here, Second Aunt has something to tell you."
Her smile was like a spring breeze.
Based on Su Xiaoxiao's understanding of this second aunt, she definitely has no good intentions.
But the other party was her elder after all, so she couldn't do anything excessive. She could only walk over reluctantly and call her Second Aunt.
Zhang Guifang's eyes darted around her, "Oh, our Xiaoxiao is getting prettier and prettier. What a pity, her elder brother passed away so early. Look at her, she doesn't even have a nice dress."
After saying that, he looked at his two younger brothers and said, "Look at these two kids, they're really pitiful. They treat a piece of fruit candy like it's a treasure. Unlike our little treasure, he never eats any candy other than White Rabbit."
In just a few words, Su Xiaoxiao had already heard the naked sarcasm and contempt in the words of the second aunt.
This is a different way of saying that her family is poor.
When Liu Cuilan heard her say this, her expression immediately turned cold: "Aunt, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't hide it."
Zhang Guifang smiled and looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, Second Aunt knows that you are a sensible child. Look at what kind of life your family has been leading. If you marry into the village chief's family, the betrothal gift alone will make your family's life much better."
When Liu Cuilan heard this, her face immediately fell and she pulled Zhang Guifang up from the chair: "Get out of here, you are not welcome in my house."
"Alas, sister-in-law, why are you still so ungrateful? I'm doing this for your own good."
"Bah, fuck you, why don't you let your daughter marry him?"
Liu Cuilan was very angry at the moment and forgot to pretend to be weak. This action scared Zhang Guifang.
She was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao.
Liu Cuilan usually looks delicate and weak, but in fact she is a stubborn person. Once she makes up her mind, even ten oxen cannot pull her back.
But this damn girl is a soft-hearted person. As long as we talk to her more about the benefits, this matter might be successful.
Thinking of this, he forced a smile and looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, listen to what Second Aunt said. If it weren't for the village chief, he would have fallen in love with you. Do you think anyone can become the village chief's daughter-in-law? Just tell me, how many people in our ten miles and eight miles away can catch up with the conditions of the village chief's family? Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your family."
After Zhang Guifang finished speaking, she waited eagerly for Su Xiaoxiao's agreement.
But unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao directly refused: "Second Aunt, although my family is poor, my mother would not sell her daughter for money. If you say that in the future, you don't have to come to my house to tell me."
Hearing this, Zhang Guifang's face immediately darkened. She didn't expect that this stubborn girl would be so stubborn.
She snorted coldly, dragged Su Xiaobao away and said, "I'm telling you, if you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to find it again. Don't regret it later."
When he walked next to Jianwen and Jianwu, he snatched the candies from the two children's hands before they could open them: "Eat, eat, eat! Do you think you are worthy of eating my candies?"
After saying that, he pulled Su Xiaobao away with his head held high.
Su Xiaobao made a face at the fourth and fifth brothers with a smug look on his face.
No matter how precocious the two children were, they were still just teenagers. They couldn't hold back their tears and their eyes turned red instantly.
Su Xiaoxiao walked over and picked the person up: "Come on, Third Sister will take you two to make money to buy candy."
The corners of their mouths that had just shrunk immediately turned up again: "Really? Third sister."
"Of course it's true. As long as you two work hard, Third Sister will buy you any candy you want."
Su Xiaoxiao skillfully painted a rosy picture for the two of them.
When the two of them excitedly arrived at the place with Su Xiaoxiao and sacks in their hands, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
