"Is the village chief uncle at home? We have something to do!" Ignoring her gaze, Cui Xiaoyu continued to ask.
"Lao Cui isn't at home. Why don't you go into the yard first and I'll go find someone to call!"
Wu Xiaoliu lifted the child in his arms and opened the door a little wider.
"That's fine, sorry to bother you, sister-in-law!" Tao Xiaohong took over the conversation at the right time.
"This is my aunt, that is my uncle, and these two are my brothers..."
Cui Xiaoyu gave a brief introduction.
Wu Xiaoliu was worried that it would be unsafe to have a group of strangers at home, as he had to go out and call for help.
Who would have thought that as soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw a large group of villagers gathered outside the gate.
At this moment, she seemed to have a deeper understanding of the idiom "scalp tingling".
Then I thought again, isn't this just the right time to have someone to run errands?
Thinking of this, she called out to the crowd, "Cui Goudan, go to the fields and call your village uncle. Tell him something's wrong at home and ask him to come back quickly!"
These days, which village doesn’t have a few people named Goudan?
A humble name is easy to maintain.
"Okay, auntie, please wait, I'll be there right away!" Goudan is also an interesting person. When he has nothing to do, he likes to read storybooks.
There is a certain literary tone in his speech.
"Haha~" the crowd burst into laughter.
"See? Those people entered the village chief's house. They must be his relatives."
"If that's the case, how come I didn't know that the village chief had such a good relative in all these years?"
“That’s right!”
"Could it be that he's here to ask the village chief for something? Didn't you see that Goudan has already gone to call for help?"
“It’s possible!”
The villagers began to talk in low voices again.
However, no one had the nerve to enter the yard. After all, Wu Xiaoliu had a bad temper.
No one is looking for trouble when there is nothing to do.
This is convenient for the Lu family.
"You guys sit down for a while, I'll ask someone to call for help, he will be back soon!"
Turning around, Wu Xiaoliu said with a smile while holding the child.
"Okay, no rush!"
…..
It was the first time for the two brothers to come to the countryside, and everything they saw was new and interesting.
"Sister, there are chicks over there!" Erbao pointed to an iron cage in the corner with shining eyes, as if he had found a treasure.
There are a few little chicks running around inside, looking so cute with their furry face.
"Well, if Erbao likes it, you can go over and take a look, but you can't touch it!" Cui Xiaoyu nodded, took his hand, and moved closer to the chicken coop.
She grew up in the countryside, so it wasn't surprising for her to see this.
Dabao and Erbao are different from her.
The two of them grew up in the city and had never seen many things.
Just as the three people were lying beside the chicken coop and whispering to each other, the old village chief Cui Dahong came back in a hurry.
…..
After some discussion, the old village chief finally understood the family's intention.
To put it more clearly, we are going to the cowshed to visit Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Xie.
The couple has been living in the countryside for several years and their life is not going well.
Every village now has these people who have been sent down.
Nanwan Village was no exception, and he accepted it with gritted teeth.
He will not sympathize with that kind of stinky old man.
It’s not that bad to say it’s bullying.
However, like other villages, they are indifferent.
Lu Dezhong was not stupid either, and he did not say directly that he was Xiaoyu's master.
Being associated with the stinky old nine is bad for the reputation of both parties.
He just made up a lie and said that Xiaoyu was injured when she went up the mountain when she was at home, and the old couple saved her.
I must repay the life-saving grace.
It seems that they are grateful and the other party also gains a good reputation.
It will also be helpful for their future life.
Cui Dahong didn't expect that the two sides would have such a conflict.
As he breathed a sigh of relief, his expression changed.
This is an officer.
Needless to say, face must be given.
He also admires the four words "know how to repay kindness".
In this kind of matter, the Lu family is always right.
"Okay, what a good boy!" Cui Dahong agreed immediately.
"Xiaoyu, don't you know the way? Just take them there!" He had other things to do, so he didn't follow them.
Just based on their military officer certificates, he trusted them.
"Thank you, Uncle Village Chief!" Cui Xiaoyu showed a sincere smile. For the first time, she felt that the village chief was not so cold.
After sending the person to the door, Wu Xiaoliu remembered that Tao Xiaohong had brought some snacks when she came in.
She wanted to return it, but when she saw the crowd of people at the door, she finally gave up.
Isn't this obviously letting others find fault with your family?
…..
Farewell to the village chief's house.
Led by Cui Xiaoyu, the family of four quickly arrived at the cowshed.
Cui Xiaoyu went to knock on the door, and Tao Xiaohong and his wife were not idle either.
My hands are full of things.
These were bought when I came here, all for the old couple.
"Cough cough cough, wait a minute, I'll be right there!" In the room, Grandma Xie coughed dryly a few times, then rustled out of bed.
"Grandma!" When Cui Xiaoyu saw Grandma Xie, her eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.
If it weren't for her master and the other two, she would still be being abused in the Cui family.
"Hmm?...You are? Xiao...Yu?" Grandma Xie widened her eyes and asked uncertainly.
It’s only been a short time since I last saw this girl, and she has changed so much?
"Grandma, I'm Xiaoyu. Don't you remember me?" She reached out to support Grandma Xie, fearing that she would fall.
"Hey, why are you back, kid? This is..." Grandma Xie patted the back of her hand, sighed, and then looked at the person behind her.
"Grandma, this is my aunt, my uncle, and my two younger brothers!"
Cui Xiaoyu introduced it again, and after saying this, she seemed to feel a little better.
"Auntie! Thank you for taking care of Xiaoyu!" Tao Xiaohong expressed her sincere gratitude.
If it weren’t for the old couple, her Xiaoyu might have really been over.
"Well, don't be polite, come inside and talk!" Standing at the door was not a good idea, so Grandma Xie welcomed the person into the house.
Looking at the dilapidated cowshed, the couple's brows were all furrowed.
It's not because of disgust, nor is it because of contempt.
Instead, I was worried about how I would survive the winter in such a dilapidated house.
"Grandma, where is the master?" Grandma Xie was the only one in the room, and Grandpa Jiang was not there.
"Oh, I'm going out. I guess I'll be back soon!" It's not enough to just eat food. They were sent down to the countryside and there was no land to grow vegetables. The old man went out to dig wild vegetables.
"Come, drink some water. There are some candies here for the two little kids!" Grandma Xie rummaged through the drawers, taking out candies and pouring hot water.
“Thank you, grandma!”
Lu Dabao and Lu Erbao took the candies in their hands and said thank you at the same time.
"Grandma, stop working, we are not thirsty!" Cui Xiaoyu quickly stopped her and asked her to sit down and rest for a while.
"Grandma, why are you coughing too!" She remembered that the master had a slight cough when she left.
