If Zhao Chunlian lives in Tai'an, then there would be a big problem. One is Luonan and the other is Tai'an. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that these are two different places. How could Zhao Chunlian actually say that Sister Zhang is her fellow villager?
Go fool the devil!
Village Chief Xu also noticed something was amiss and asked, "Jiaying, does that older sister also live in Tai'an?"
Shu Jiaying quickly replied, "Of course not. I remember very clearly that Aunt Zhang and Uncle Tianxiang lived in Lengnan. Uncle Xu, where is Lengnan?"
"Lannan is located on the northern border of our country. It's in a very cold zone, and the local people live in poverty. I've heard that there are many men in Lannan who remain single their entire lives because of poverty."
When saying this, Village Chief Xu deliberately looked at Tianxiang.
Tianxiang immediately lowered his head guiltily.
But Sister Zhang, knowledgeable and experienced, quickly retorted, "Who says we in Luannan are poor? I...we Luannan people are just low-key and don't like to show off. The truth is, we're rich, and every place has its rich and poor, just like your Guangming Village. I don't even think your people are that wealthy."
Shu Jiaying immediately retorted, "Since you've already said you're from Luonan, how could you lie to me and say you and Zhao Chunlian are from the same hometown?
Besides, my uncle Erleng was clearly born and raised in Guangming Village. How on earth are he related to you guys?"
"This..., no, I..."
These words left Sister Zhang speechless. She gave Zhao Chunlian a reproachful look and cursed in her heart: It's all because of this old woman's talkativeness, otherwise how could I have gotten into trouble with such a difficult girl?
But he said perfunctorily: "Hehehe... these are things from the time of our ancestors. How would I know if you ask me? Sister, what delicious food did you buy? Let me help you."
Knowing that Sister Zhang was trying to avoid the topic by deliberately changing it, Zhao Chunlian quickly handed over the pork leg in her hand.
"Look, Sister Zhang, this is such a big pig's trotter. What do you think about stewing it tonight?"
"Stewed pig's trotters is good, it's quite nutritious. That's settled. Where is the kitchen? I'll go help light the fire.
Tianxiang..., what are you still doing here? Let's go to the kitchen and chop the pork leg."
"oh oh……"
Tianxiang had long been feeling uncomfortable being stared at by Headman Xu, and now that he had an excuse to run away, he ran out the door. Sister Zhang was afraid that Tianxiang would be exposed, so she ran out and grabbed him in fear.
"What are you doing? The kitchen is inside, not outside."
"No, I want to go out..."
It would have been fine if Tianxiang didn't say anything, but as soon as he started talking, Sister Zhang almost vomited blood, because his expression perfectly interpreted what panic looked like. Isn't this guy really afraid that others will know who they are?
Unable to help but roll her eyes, Sister Zhang used her loud voice to drown out Tianxiang's voice.
"The kitchen is inside the house. Do you think this is your hometown? Everyone's kitchen is built outside?"
Tianxiang received Sister Zhang's hint and reacted quickly.
"That's right, the kitchens in my hometown are all built outside the house. Look how confused I am, hahaha... The kitchen is inside the house, the kitchen is inside the house..."
He stumbled back into the house.
Facing the doubts of Shu Jiaying and Village Chief Xu, Sister Zhang smiled and ran into the house, not forgetting to explain.
"Look at this guy, he's so old, but he still acts like a young man, so reckless. I'll go to the kitchen to help, hehe... stewed pig's trotters, I'm the best!"
