Chapter 15: Raining

to Keep Guests Gu Lanting hadn't put out the cigarette yet, and he was lazily holding it at the corner of his lips. His strong features actually added a hint of laziness, which didn't seem to be out of place.

"Who are you going to hit?" he asked casually.

Yuan Man turned around and saw that the person who stepped on him was Gu Lanting. His crotch almost got wet, and he hurriedly said: "Gu Public Security, she is my daughter, I can't hit her!"

It's only natural for a father to hit his daughter.

After hearing what was said, Liu Zhaodi also agreed: "That's right, Gu Gongan, she is the daughter of our Yuan family. How can a father not beat his daughter!"

Wang Yazhi heard their shameless words and spat in their faces, "Bah! My daughter has severed ties with the Yuan family and has nothing to do with you!"

Yuan Jianhua was frightened, but he could still say a few words at the critical moment, "Auntie, Yuan Xiao has the blood of our Yuan family in her body. How can we cut off her relationship with her? Our Yuan family has raised her for more than ten years, right? You want to take her away without giving her a penny?"

Wang Yazhi was so angry that she snatched the stick from Yuan Xiao's hand and was about to hit her. Yuan Man was beating Yuan Jianhua and cursing at him, "I'm going to beat you to death, you shameless bastard! I, Yuan Xiao, have been working for the Yuan family since I could walk, and she eats less than the chickens! I've worked like a slave for you, the Yuan family, for more than ten years, and I haven't even asked you for money. How dare you talk to me about money?!"

Yuan Man felt distressed when he saw Yuan Jianhua being chased and beaten. He struggled to get up and roared, "Wang Yazhi, you bastard, you dare to hit my son, I'm going to kill you!"

Yuan Xiao was thinking about how to deal with Yuan Man when he saw the hen in the chicken coop fly out as if it had human nature, pecked Yuan Man on the head a few times, then flew up and pooped on his head with a thud.

This scene was so immersive that Yuan Xiao covered his nose and took a few steps back.

Even Gu Lanting frowned, let go of his feet in disgust, and stood aside silently.

Yuan Man not only had a mouthful of chicken feathers, but also a pile of shit on his head. He couldn't help but pull his hair, and his palm was covered with shit again.

"If you don't want to go to jail, you'd better get out now!" Yuan Xiao covered his nose and scolded.

Although Liu Zhaodi was afraid, she still mustered up the courage to say, "You can let us go, but you have to hand over the reward money!"

Yuan Man didn't care that he smelled like chicken shit, and shouted, "Yes, hand it over to us!"

Yuan Xiao rolled his eyes, "You won't leave if you don't hand it over, right? Fine, please ask the police to take the three of them to the police station. I have a document stamped by the commune to prove that I have nothing to do with them!"

Gu Lanting put out his cigarette and said casually, "In that case, the three of you come with me!"

Liu Zhaodi was uneducated and didn't know what was illegal or not. She only knew that going to jail was very serious!

She screamed and ran away, shouting, "No, I don't want it anymore!" She

even fell a few times on the way and stumbled all the way back.

Yuan Jianhua had already disappeared in a flash, and Yuan Man couldn't make a fuss by himself, so he had to leave embarrassedly.

Wang Yazhi took a breath and poked her stick, "Thank you, Gu Gongan, please come in and have a drink of water."

Yuan Xiao curled his lips, and there was no need to drink water.

Gu Lanting saw Yuan Xiao's expression and found it a little funny, "Auntie, no, I have something else to do."

Wang Yazhi asked him to wait, then rushed into the kitchen and took a few bunches of grapes left over from Yuan Xiao's winemaking from the basket.

"Xiaoxiao picked it from the mountain, take it back and try it!"

Gu Lanting did not refuse. The last time he tasted the brine at Tan Yanan's house, it really amazed him. He always felt that the food at Yuanxiao's house was better than usual.

He came from the capital and was born in a large courtyard. He had tasted all kinds of delicacies, but none of them were as delicious as those made by Yuanxiao.

Just as Gu Lanting was about to leave, a dark cloud flew by, and a strong wind blew, blowing the dust into the air.

Gu Lanting: This is to prevent him from leaving.

Wang Yazhi is a kind person, so it is impossible for her to let him leave when it is about to rain.

"Gu Gongan, please have dinner at home before leaving, otherwise it will rain halfway."

Gu Lanting had no reason to refuse, so he stayed.

Yuan Xiao: ...A policeman like you are afraid of rain?

Tonight's dinner is mushrooms, which Yuan Xiao brought out from the forest. This

morning, Wang Yazhi went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a pound of pork belly and tofu. They have a small family, and Yuan Xiao has income, so it doesn't take ten days or half a month to eat meat.

I cooked a meal at noon, and there was still some pork belly left for dinner.

Tofu and various mushrooms were stewed in a casserole, and it was so delicious that I wanted to swallow it.

Yuan Xiao was very quick and skillful. The meal was ready before the rain outside.

As usual, she served a bowl of mushroom soup to Tan Yanan and Xue Yuanling.

Both of them were her elders. She had no money, so the only thing she could take care of was food.

When Yuan Xiao came back from delivering the mushroom soup, raindrops as big as beans began to fall, and it hurt when they hit her skin.

"Xiaoxiao, come in quickly, it's time to eat!" Wang Yazhi called out.

Yuan Xiao didn't like the room to be filled with the smell of food, so they usually ate in the kitchen and even made a special dining table and put it in the kitchen.

Yuan Xiao ran in in the rain, and the three of them sat together facing each other to eat.

Fortunately, Wang Yazhi was a chatterbox, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing.

Gu Lanting was secretly regretting that he shouldn't have stayed to eat for free, but as soon as he took a sip of the mushroom soup, he gave up the idea.

It was fresh and smooth, and he was sure that he had never eaten a better mushroom soup than this!

But Yuan Xiao still felt unsatisfied, and sighed faintly: "If only I could have a chicken."

It would be even more perfect if it were paired with chicken soup.

The old hens outside were clucking and shivering.

As for Liu Zhaodi and the other two, they ran home in a panic.

She was upset, so she started throwing things around at home, swearing at everything.

Yuan Man listened to her getting more and more rude, and finally couldn't help but yelled, "Mom!"

Liu Zhaodi sulked, "What's wrong? Was I wrong? Not to mention that the 50 yuan gift money is gone, this money originally belonged to our Yuan family! With this money, my Jianwei can find a good job after graduating from High School. It's all because of the troublemaker you married!"

Yuan Jianwei is the son of Yuannian, the third son of the Yuan family. He is the sweetheart of Liu Zhaodi.

Among the three sons of the Yuan family, only the third son Yuannian is born to her. Yuan Jianwei, her grandson, is her sweetheart.

In addition to Yuan Jianwei, Yuannian also has a daughter, Yuan Lu, who is also sweet-mouthed in front of Liu Zhaodi. Unlike Yuan Xiao, she lives a life like a daughter of a landlord.

Yuan Man was like a gourd with a sawed mouth in an instant. He wanted the money to find a wife for Yuan Jianhua, not for his nephew.

In his heart, the most important are his parents, then Yuan Jianhua, his biological son, and then it is the turn of his nephews and nieces. Anyway, there is no place for Yuan Xiao.

Yuan Jianhua is already in his twenties. If he doesn't find a wife, he will be a bachelor.
