Just as Xu Guiying was about to speak, she heard Xu Qiang speak again.
"But, from today on, I will no longer let Xu Li live with you. This also means that the money and notes I send back will no longer have anything to do with Auntie."
Upon hearing that she would never get the money and tickets back, Xu Guiying stood up suddenly.
"What? She doesn't live with us, where do you want her to live? After all, I'm still your aunt, how could I possibly harm you?"
"If you ask me, Lili should live with us. If you are not satisfied with the previous matchmaker, I won't force her to get married."
Xu Li glared at Xu Guiying hatefully.
The old woman said these bluffing words just because she saw her brother coming.
It sounds nice, but isn't it just that she's thinking about the little allowance her brother gives her?
After living together for several years, how could she not know about this old woman's fickle mind?
...
...
"Aunt, my brother has already bought a house from the captain. From now on, I can just live in my own house. You don't have to worry about that."
Xu Guiying glanced at her sideways and wanted to get angry, but finally she held it back.
She smiled and looked at Xu Qiang, "Qiangzi, your parents are gone, and we are the closest relatives. We can't become estranged because of this misunderstanding. Don't you think so?"
"Aunt, if you treat Lili well in the future, I will remember your kindness. Lili's marriage is her own decision. I will not interfere, and you are naturally not qualified to interfere."
Xu Qiang's attitude is very tough.
When he went to the hospital yesterday and saw the wounds on Xu Li's body, he felt mixed emotions.
After everything that needed to be said was made clear, Xu Qiang took Xu Li to the new house.
Considering that Xu Li and Song Shishi have a good relationship, the two can take care of each other.
So Xu Qiang bought a house near the educated youth site.
"Brother, Sister Shishi and the others are rushing to harvest wheat today. They will probably be busy until very late. I don't have much to clean up here. I want to make something to eat and send it to Sister Shishi later. I will help her with farm work in the afternoon."
"When are you leaving? I'm afraid I won't be able to see you off."
Hearing this, Xu Qiang looked at Meng Xunzhou.
He didn't know when to go back, so he had to listen to Meng Xunzhou.
Meng Xunzhou looked in the direction of the grain field and said, "We'll leave later. We'll go to the fields with you later."
Meng Xunzhou felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about how Song Shishi, who was spoiled like a princess at home, had to suffer so much after coming to the countryside.
But there wasn't much he could do to help with this matter.
He can only do what he can.
“That’s great.”
Xu Li didn't want to be separated from her brother so soon, but she also felt sorry for Song Shishi. Yesterday she saw that the blisters on Song Shishi's hands were bleeding.
Now that she heard that Xu Qiang and Meng Xunzhou were going to help in the fields together, she was naturally happy that she could stay with her brother for a while longer.
Xu Li made some simple food, and the three of them walked towards the area that Song Shishi was in charge of.
It is now lunchtime, and the wheat fields and threshing floors are filled with villagers and educated youth gathered together.
Song Shishi and Yang Huifang were sitting under a locust tree talking and did not notice the arrival of Xu Li and the others.
"sister."
Xu Li shouted loudly, and when she saw Song Shishi looking up at her, she quickly raised her hand and waved.
Song Shishi didn't expect that Meng Xunzhou and the others hadn't left yet, so she stood up and went to greet them.
"Sister, I brought you some food, let's eat together."
Xu Li pulled Song Shishi and showed her the things she brought.
Song Shishi nodded in response, but her eyes looked at Meng Xunzhou from time to time.
Only after they sat down under the locust tree again did Song Shishi ask, "Why didn't you return to the army?"
Meng Xunzhou glanced at Song Shishi's hand and replied calmly, "No hurry, I'll go back later."
"Lili, did you only bring food for Shishi? Is there any share for me?" When Yang Huifang saw Xu Li spread out the sweet potatoes and corn, and then looked at the dry steamed bun in her hand, she suddenly felt that the food in her hand was not fragrant anymore.
Xu Li smiled brightly, "Of course, I cooked more on purpose, Sister Huifang, if you want to eat, just help yourself."
"Ah, Lili is still the best." Yang Huifang giggled and reached out to take a corn and started eating.
Song Shishi thought about the vegetable garden, and after thinking for a while, she asked, "Huifang, when you went to water the vegetable garden a few days ago, did you see the plastic tent I built?"
"Plastic shed? No, among us new educated youth, I was the second one to be in charge of the vegetable field. When I went there, I didn't see any plastic shed. What's wrong?" Yang Huifang recalled and shook her head.
Song Shishi frowned.
When the tasks were assigned, everyone took turns to work in the vegetable field one day at a time, and Jiang Cuihua was the first one and Yang Huifang was the second.
If Yang Huifang said that she did not see the plastic shed, then it could only be Jiang Cuihua who destroyed her shed.
This woman is so annoying.
"The experiment I told you about, I went to water the vegetable garden today and found that someone had destroyed the plastic shed I built." Song Shishi explained.
Hearing this, Yang Huifang immediately realized who did it. She turned her head and glanced at Jiang Cuihua who was passing by the grain field in the distance. "So, are you going to tell Captain Chen and the others about this?"
Song Shishi nodded, "Of course I have to say it, but I have to say it in front of everyone."
Meng Xunzhou listened quietly without interrupting.
Song Shishi has been very opinionated since she was young. There are some things that he cannot interfere too much in, so as not to make her unhappy.
…
Not far away, An Jinsheng saw Meng Xunzhou and his heart was alarmed. He was about to get up and go to Song Shishi, but Zhou Xingxue came over and stopped him.
"Comrade An, I brought you some food. These are the eggs I secretly saved. They are delicious."
An Jinsheng's eyes were fixed on Song Shishi's direction, but he agreed, "Oh, really? Eat it yourself."
Zhou Xingxue noticed that something was wrong with An Jinsheng, and turned around to look in the direction of Song Shishi.
She pursed her lips and gave Song Shishi a secret look.
She is just a vixen who only knows how to seduce men. She already has a partner, but she still seduces others. She has no shame!
"It must be a hard day today, right? My dad said we have to work till late today."
"yes."
As An Jinsheng was talking, he tried several times to bypass Zhou Xingxue and go towards Song Shishi, but was blocked by Zhou Xingxue every time.
Seeing that many people around were looking at them, An Jinsheng had no choice but to give up.
"Comrade An, drink some water and eat slowly so you don't choke."
An Jinsheng smiled awkwardly, didn't respond, and didn't take the water from her hand.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Xingxue angrily put the cup of water in her hand heavily to the ground.
"An Jinsheng, what do you mean?"
Zhou Xingxue's voice was so loud that all the surrounding villagers and educated youth looked over.
An Jinsheng was also shocked.
Realizing what Zhou Xingxue wanted to say, he frowned and lowered his voice to explain: "What's wrong? I was just thinking about something and didn't pay attention to what you said. There are so many people here, it's not good for your reputation if you do this."
