Zhang Zhilan told the other party the gift Xu Nanxing brought when he first came to her house just to show off.
Because she guessed at once that Xu Nanxing also visited the Yang family when he came for the first time.
But Wang Xiuzhen was so rude and contemptuous to the little girl. I'm afraid the little girl didn't send any good gifts to his family at that time!
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhilan immediately began to show off the gifts that the little girl brought to his family when she came to visit him for the first time.
Sure enough, when Wang Xiuzhen heard that the other party had sent so many good things, her face changed immediately and she blurted out, "What? She also sent so many things to your house?"
Zhang Zhilan immediately said with a smile: "Of course, this girl is so polite! The first time she came to our house, she brought so many good things! Our old Xie refused to accept them! He was afraid that this little girl would lose herself! Who knew that this girl insisted that we accept them, saying that if we didn't accept them, she wouldn't dare to come next time! You see, this little girl is really too polite! She never comes empty-handed every time she comes to our house!"
Then he continued to say to Xu Nanxing: "Little girl, next time you come to see your sister-in-law, just come directly. You don't have to bring anything with you all the time! Even if you grow the vegetables yourself, it's very hard work for you at such a young age!"
Xu Nanxing understood the other party's intention and immediately said, "It's not good to come empty-handed. Bring some vegetables for Brother and Sister-in-law to try! They're fresh from the fields, so they're delicious!"
Zhang Zhilan smiled and said, "Okay! Then let Big Brother and Sister-in-law have a taste!"
Wang Xiuzhen, standing by, couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you bring these things to our house the last time you came? Why are you treating us differently? You only sent us a few broken eggs. Who are you putting down?"
Zhang Zhilan burst into laughter upon hearing this. Without waiting for Xu Nanxing to retort, she immediately said, "That's hilarious! Isn't it a thoughtful gesture when someone comes to your house? Why do you think their gift isn't good enough? Besides, didn't you just tell them to come to your house less often? Why are you bringing up their gift now?"
They had been talking for a while downstairs in the family building, and many other residents from nearby buildings were watching the excitement.
They had dealt with Wang Xiuzhen and Zhang Zhilan before, and knew what kind of people they were. Some of them were friends, while others were enemies.
Many of them had a bad relationship with Wang Xiuzhen and immediately mocked her, saying, "We've really opened our eyes today! She was telling people to come to her house less before, and now she's complaining that the gifts she gives aren't generous enough! There are actually people like this. We've really learned something new!"
Someone who lived next door to Wang Xiuzhen recognized Xu Nanxing and said, "I remember this girl! She seemed to have visited the Yang family, but they didn't let her in. They just told her to stand outside and talk for a few minutes. She only gave her a few eggs and left without saying anything. She never even entered the house."
"What? You're so embarrassed to accept someone's gift without even letting them in? And now you're complaining that the gift is too little?"
"If a little girl comes to your house, you should at least invite her in for a cup of tea, right?"
"I heard that this is the girl that the old boss asked to help take care of!"
"Tsk tsk, people are gone and the tea gets cold. It's only been a short time since Old Yang left the military! And he doesn't even recognize his old leader anymore?"
Seeing that the onlookers were making things develop in an uncontrollable direction, especially those words that were detrimental to Lao Yang's reputation, if her mother-in-law knew about it, she would definitely not forgive her.
Wang Xiuzhen finally calmed down and forced a smile, "What are you talking about? This little girl is so young, I'm just surprised she brought so many things with her. What if she runs into some bad guys on the way and gets robbed? I'm not after her stuff at all!"
"It's not safe out here. There are even some Japanese coming here recently. It would be so dangerous if we ran into them! That's why I told this little girl to stay out less. I'm doing this for her safety. Don't blame me!"
"Also, the old leader asked our family's Old Yang to help this girl when she got into trouble. Our family's Old Yang has always remembered it! I didn't mean to disrespect the old leader at all, so don't talk nonsense!"
Speaking of the Japanese who have appeared in the town recently, the people here are all family members of police officers from the Public Security Bureau, and they all know some inside information to some extent.
Everyone feels that these Japanese are indeed very dangerous!
Just take the years when Japan occupied Northeast China. How many Chinese people were killed and how many atrocities were committed by the Japanese!
Who knows how long these Japanese have been lurking, how many Japanese have not been dug out, and how many Japanese are still waiting for an opportunity to strike around.
To be honest, they really had no idea what to do.
I’m afraid that these Japanese will suddenly go crazy and randomly attack ordinary people’s homes, and then all the residents in the town will suffer.
When the onlookers heard that Wang Xiuzhen was afraid that the little girl would encounter the Japanese and get into trouble, so she asked her to go out less and come to the town less often, they immediately understood.
The topic immediately turned to whether the town was safe these days.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nanxing just wanted to roll her eyes. When she first came here, there was no trace of the Japanese at all?
People simply look down on her as a country girl who comes to beg for money!
However, Xu Nanxing was too lazy to argue with the other party, and did not want to continue discussing Mr. Kong in front of outsiders.
The old man originally arranged two candidates to prevent this situation from happening.
As long as one of the two people is willing, the other one doesn't matter.
Xu Nanxing said immediately, "Thank you so much, Sister Yang, for thinking of me! Sister Xie is very happy for me to go to her house. I hope that next time I go to Sister Xie's house, Sister Yang won't come and ask me why I'm here! If someone doesn't know, they might think I'm asking for money! A country girl like me wouldn't dare to come to your house anyway, so I won't bring these vegetables to embarrass you!"
After saying that, he pulled Zhang Zhilan upstairs. She was not used to arguing with others in public, and she didn't like being stared at. If she retorted, she would leave immediately.
Zhang Zhilan also took Xu Nanxing's arm and walked home, saying affectionately as they walked: "My dear sister, you can come over anytime you want in the future. Our whole family welcomes you! We are not like some families who don't even let guests in when they come to visit! We would never do such a thing!"
What Xu Nanxing said was very impolite. After hearing it, Wang Xiuzhen's face turned blue and white, like a color palette.
What Zhang Zhilan said was like a slap in her face, making her look stingy and greedy!
