Chapter 125 It's a bit strange

Zhu Suisui was a little angry at first. After all, being forced to do something against her will based on seniority points was really disgusting to her.

But calm down now.

Zhu Suisui felt something was wrong.

What exactly do Uncle Xu and his family want to do?

Zhu Suisui thought so.

Zhu Lechen, who was the most unable to control his emotions, could not help but speak, "Grandma, Suibao and Lanxu are both very busy, and they just came back. You also said that they are all family relatives, so is it that important whether they eat or not?"

"Xingguo, how did you teach your son to talk to elders like this?" Old Mrs. Xu frowned and looked at Zhu Xingguo with displeasure.

It’s good to be an elder.

In China, as long as you are an elder and older, you can boss the younger ones around.

Zhu Xingguo is tongue-tied and cannot speak.

After being scolded by Old Mrs. Xu, she subconsciously wanted to apologize on behalf of her son.

However, Old Lady Zhu glanced over and stopped Zhu Xingguo from speaking. "Xingguo, take the eldest and second sons to the fields. I'm entertaining my mother-in-law here. You have to do the work."

This is indeed a matter that the men of the Zhu family cannot be allowed to get involved in.

No matter Zhu Xingguo or the two brothers of the Zhu family, they are all young people and they would not go against Old Lady Xu. If that gets out, it will be the Zhu family's problem.

The advantage of Old Lady Xu is that she is a woman, and she has the nerve to do such unreasonable things. Could it be that Zhu Xingguo and the two brothers of the Zhu family would have to argue with an old lady?

The person sat on the ground, crying and patting the ground, and it was impossible to explain himself even if he was right.

They have to do this.

Zhu Xingguo hesitated for a moment and did not agree immediately. After being glared at by Old Lady Zhu, he sighed and left with his two brothers.

Wait until the men from the Zhu family are gone.

Mrs. Zhu then looked at Mrs. Xu and said, "Mother-in-law, it's not that Sui Sui and Lan Xu don't want to go to dinner. You see, they just came back, so they need to take a break and rest."

Old Mrs. Xu frowned, "It's just a meal, why bother? My dear mother-in-law, you can't block the communication between our two families. Although I'm not Huihui's biological mother, if it weren't for me, Huihui would have starved to death. Who would want a girl at that time? They couldn't even eat enough, and they had to raise a baby. I didn't have any merits, but at least I worked hard."

"Yes, Huihui is now married to your Zhu family. It is said that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled out, but you can't be so heartless. At that time, Xingguo of your family was not young anymore and was extremely poor. If I hadn't agreed to marry Huihui to Xingguo, would you have the wife and children you have now?"

Mrs. Zhu only said one sentence, but Mrs. Xu already had a lot of words waiting for her.

Zhu Suisui watched and was afraid that his grandmother would suffer a loss.

She is strong-willed, well-behaved, and too kind. She will definitely get angry if she meets unreasonable people.

You definitely can't go there to eat.

Zhu Suisui felt that this matter was most likely unrelated to him, but was related to Lu Lanxu. The Xu family wanted Lu Lanxu to go, and he could not force them to take her along.

But the two of them are husband and wife, so they are a community. If Zhu Sui wants to take advantage of Lu Lanxu, that is Zhu Sui's business.

She couldn't let Lu Lanxu become so passive because of her own reasons.

Think of this.

Before Old Lady Zhu could reply, Zhu Suisui spoke first, "Grandma, it's definitely not possible tonight. Lan Xu is at the village chief's house right now. He probably won't be back until after dinner. We can always have dinner. We can't offend the village chief over this. How about this, Grandma, you go ask the village chief?"

Go to the village chief?

Old Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment.

She was just an old country lady, how could she dare to say anything to the village chief.

He is an official, even if he is just a small local cadre, insignificant, old lady Xu dare not provoke him.

The village chief and Lu Lanxu must have something important to discuss, so Old Lady Xu ran over and told them to come to her house for dinner first, saying that it would be crazy for her to tell anyone else.

Old Mrs. Xu was a little terrified. "That...that's not necessary."

The development of the matter was different from what she had imagined. Although she suspected that Zhu Suisui was lying, she did not see Lu Lanxu at this moment, so she thought about it and had to say.

"Then tomorrow..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Suisui sighed and said, "I don't know if the matter with the village chief will be resolved tomorrow."

"That's your husband, how come you don't know?" Old Mrs. Xu said subconsciously.

Zhu Suisui blinked her eyes, looking innocent. "How can I, a woman, ask about such things? Isn't it a man's business? Lan Xu won't tell me. How about you go and ask the village chief when their affairs will be resolved?"

Only Mrs. Xu would be crazy to ask!

And she could understand what Zhu Suisui said.

When my old man was still alive, I would not care about these things. It’s not that I wouldn’t care, but if I did, I would get impatient with men, and sometimes I would even resort to violence.

In Mrs. Xu's mind, she naturally felt that it was indeed inconvenient for a woman to ask a man about his affairs outside the home.

She was a little annoyed, so she had to say, "Then give me a definite answer when it will be finished."

Zhu Suisui did not refuse. Naturally, she could not let Old Lady Xu have any leverage over her. She said, "Okay, if I'm free someday, I'll bring Lan Xu over directly."

"That won't do--" Old Mrs. Xu replied subconsciously.

Hearing this.

Zhu Suisui narrowed his eyes slightly, "Grandma, why can't it be done?"

Old Mrs. Xu didn't know what was going on. When she looked at her granddaughter before, she only remembered that she was in very poor health and was extremely timid. She looked down on her and of course never took her seriously.

But looking at her eyes now, there is an indescribable sense of majesty that goes straight into my heart.

Mrs. Xu was already quite old, but she still felt a little nervous. She opened her mouth, her voice a little weak, "You guys finally came here, you should have arranged time for us to buy vegetables and meat, right? Anyway, you should try to tell us in advance, at least one day in advance, so that your aunt can prepare in advance."

That sounds like it makes sense.

But Zhu Suisui felt that there were some loopholes.

Do I have to cook a day earlier?

What kind of food is so hard to buy?

Zhu Suisui thought so in his heart, but he agreed readily.

Old Mrs. Zhu glanced at her, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.

Seeing Zhu Suisui agreed, Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was not dinner today, at least the meal would definitely come.

She didn't even wait for Xu Hui's water to come, and left with a hunched back.

Wait until the person leaves.

Xu Hui, who was eavesdropping from the corner, came out with empty hands.

Seeing her like this, Old Lady Zhu glared at her and said, "You are a mother, but you are not as promising as Su Su. You were so scared when you saw your mother that you dared not come out."

Xu Hui didn't dare to answer and lowered her head to look at her toes.

Old Mrs. Zhu was very disappointed that Zhu Suisui had not been able to achieve his goal, but what was more important at the moment was that Zhu Suisui agreed to have dinner with her.

She frowned and looked at Zhu Suisui.

"Sui Sui, what are you thinking? Didn't you say you didn't want to go? Why did you agree to go?"
