Chapter 259: Wen Ran: Hehe, eavesdropping with my future mother-in-law
Although crayfish can be caught during the day, it is rather troublesome.
But at night, when the crayfish come out to look for food, you can basically find them by the river and in the grass by the water plants by shining a flashlight.
In theory, this excuse is reasonable.
But Father Xiao still felt that something was not right.
Tsk.
Where exactly is it?
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed, "Are your mother and sister Ranran the only ones who went there?"
"Yeah," Xiao Chenxing was confused for a moment, not quite understanding why his father reacted so strongly to this matter.
"Why didn't you go with them?" Father Xiao asked in confusion, "Aren't you two always together?"
Xiao Chenxing: “…”
Her eyes became sad, and even resentment was emanating from her whole body.
Father Xiao: “?”
Um?
Did he say something wrong?
Hong Guo popped her head out from under Xiao Chenxing's armpit and said shyly, "Sister Xingxing took a test today and almost failed..."
"Yes," Xiao Chenxing's heart was filled with tears, "I can't go out to play. I can only stay at home and receive tutoring from Hong Guo."
Mentioning this, Xiao Chenxing's face was filled with guilt.
If she hadn't almost failed the exam, not only her, but even Hongguo would have been able to go out and play together.
Alas, after all, it was she who implicated Hongguo.
Good, the reason is strong.
This time, Xiao's father was convinced.
The doubts in my heart were completely dispelled by the two people's jokes.
He yawned and said, "Come on, you're the same. Hongguo goes to school later than you.
Look at you now, you still need others to give you tutoring. Aren’t you ashamed to tell others about it?
If you ask me, your sister Ranran is right. Study hard! It’s getting late. Go to bed after studying. You have things to do tomorrow.”
Xiao Chenxing: “…”
She gritted her teeth, "What? You said what you said, and cut the slack! I'm already annoyed because I can't do the questions!"
"Bang!"
The door was closed and Xiao's father was startled.
He scratched his head and muttered, "Oh my God, kids nowadays have such bad tempers."
After gathering his clothes, Father Xiao yawned and walked into the house, thinking about spring ploughing.
Seeing that it was almost over, their family finally had some free time.
Tsk.
I don’t know why, but I always feel uneasy.
Ouch!
Father Xiao concluded that he must have not slept enough.
Not knowing when the old woman who went out to look after the lobsters would come back, Father Xiao yawned, closed the door, lay down on the kang, and fell asleep in seconds.
At that time, Xiao's mother, who was worried about her father, was lying on the tiles on the roof.
She moved a little and lowered her voice and said, "Of course, you are so familiar with this, have you done this kind of thing a lot?"
Wen Ran: “…”
Tsk, I've been noticed.
She also lowered her voice and responded, "No way, I'm so lazy, if no one offends me, I won't bother with these things."
The implication is that if someone is offended, then you do this?
Facing Xiao's mother's inquiring gaze, Wen Ran chose to play dead.
"Shh~"
She pulled off a tile and said, "It's time to talk."
"Don't worry." Mother Xiao moved her body and whispered, "By the way, don't you feel that this is a bit uncomfortable?"
Lying down is really uncomfortable.
I don’t know how this little girl bears it.
It's just this time. Next time, if she gets involved in some trouble again, she will definitely not do it.
Wen Ran pulled out a mat from beside him like a magic trick.
"Tsk, Auntie, you came out to eavesdrop and didn't even bring all the necessary equipment with you."
Mother Xiao: "..."
She thought eavesdropping meant just lying down next to someone and listening to what they said.
Who would have thought that I would have to lie on the roof.
Oh, it makes me worried just thinking about it. When I came up, I was full of courage.
But she is old and weak, how can she go down quietly?
Although Xiao's mother was worried, she didn't say anything.
Because the people below have already started talking.
"From the old family, Xiao Li looks like he is going to get married."
"What?"
Zhou Xiuying was unhappy, she frowned, "I have already taken a liking to Xiaoli, and I think he is the most suitable child for my niece.
Why do you suddenly want to settle down with someone?"
"Alas," Old Madam Xiao glared at Zhou Xiuying, "How dare you say that? I told you a long time ago.
Your niece is not an honest person. It would be great if she had settled down earlier!
You refused to listen and even had your eyes on that evil Song Shilan's fifth son. Now, the fifth son is getting married and Xiao Li is also engaged. I wonder what your niece will do!"
The mother and daughter lying on the roof: "!!!"
The two of them looked up, looked at each other, and were both stunned.
Wen Ran came back to his senses and silently gave Xiao's mother a thumbs up.
That’s awesome.
This shows that the Xiao family is going to cause trouble.
Xiao's mother was both proud and angry. These two old women were so wicked.
Zhou Xiuying was very annoyed, "It has come to this, and you are still saying those sarcastic words, what's the point?
Besides, don’t you know why I’m targeting Xiao Chenye?
The kid was handsome, had a good job, and took home either money or meat.
Anyway, my niece has to marry a kid from the Xiao family, so what's wrong with me picking a good one?
And there is Song Shilan, that little bitch, oh no, that old bitch, although she doesn't get along with my mother and me, you can't deny that she is a good mother-in-law.
When my niece gets married and has a baby, Bao will treat her with all his heart."
"Humph," Old Madam Xiao snorted coldly, "I think you are just wishful thinking.
Just say that the girl is from your mother's family, and Song Shilan will have to avoid her."
Zhou Xiuying: “…”
She took a deep breath and said, "You don't have to blame me. Anyway, now that Xiao Chenye is done, I must take care of Xiao Li for my niece."
The more Zhou Xiuying thought about it, the more upset she became.
He grumbled, "Who knew things would turn out like this?
I thought that no one would look down upon Xiao Li, that cowardly kid, and no one took him seriously.
Who knew it would become so popular? "
She turned around and held Mrs. Xiao’s hand, “Mom, we have to stand on the same line.
As long as my niece can marry Xiao Li smoothly, we, mother and I, will enjoy a good life in the future.
My niece eats big pieces of meat, so we can at least have some broth to drink."
Old Madam Xiao glanced at Zhou Xiuying and said, "I told you a long time ago, but you didn't listen."
This matter was indeed Zhou Xiuying's fault. She was speechless, "Who knew this damn girl was so disappointing? Before, she could have delayed it and picked it up carefully.
But this time, isn’t it... not waiting for anyone?
It's a different time now. Old lady, this matter depends on you. It would be best if Xiaoli could get married to my niece this month and get it done.
Only in this way can I feel relieved. "
