Chapter 51： salary increase

Ning Xi helped Zhang Ying get out of the car. The two of them squatted by the stream and washed themselves, patted the dust on their bodies, arranged their clothes, untied the messy hair, pulled it with their hands a few times, and reshaped it. "Second sister-in-law, you have to adjust your mood. When you go back later, you have to pretend that nothing happened. You must not let anyone find out the clues."

“Xiao Xi?” Zhang Ying fixed her hair and looked at Ning Xi with a confused expression. “Why didn’t you call the police? We were almost bullied, why didn’t you call the police?”

“If you call the police, everyone in the village will know. Even if you tell them that those people didn’t succeed, they won’t believe it and will talk nonsense behind your back.”

Zhang Ying lowered her head, tears falling down her cheeks. "Xiao Xi, will your second brother not want me anymore?"

Ning Xi hurriedly stepped forward and wiped Zhang Ying's tears, "Second sister-in-law, please don't think so wildly. Those people didn't succeed."

Zhang Ying's tears fell even more fiercely, "But, as you said, no one will believe it. Even if your second brother wants to believe me, it's useless. There are so many mouths in the village, and everyone can drown us with just one word." ”

Ning Xi held Zhang Ying's face and said with a serious face, "So we can't talk about it, and we can't let outsiders know about it."

Zhang Ying looked at Ning Xi blankly for a while before asking, "If you don't tell me, is it really okay? What if those people come to us again, or they go to the village and talk nonsense?"

“Those people must shut up.” Ning Xi pulled Zhang Ying down, poured some water and helped her wash her face, then pulled her back into the car and continued riding home.

"Second sister-in-law, although we can't let people in the village know about this matter, we can tell our second brother and Brother Nan. I believe them, and they will believe us. And only by telling them can Brother Nan help us find those people." Solve this matter."

"But..." Zhang Ying bit her lip and cried again. She covered her face in fear and huddled in the tricycle. "What if your second brother doesn't believe me?"

"Then don't tell him, just tell Brother Nan. Even if Brother Nan doesn't believe us, he won't tell the second brother about this matter. He is not a talkative person, and he will not use this matter to destroy you and the second brother. marriage."

Zhang Ying grabbed Ning Xi's clothes nervously, "What about you? What should you do if he knows about this?"

"I believe he will believe me." Ning Xi turned to Zhang Ying and smiled slightly, "Of course, if he doesn't believe me, I will admit it, and I will also tell him that he is my husband and he has the right to know. ”

Or, take this opportunity to see if he has basic trust in her. If not, she will leave Sichuan and never come back, never see him again.

Zhang Ying looked at the confident Ning Xi blankly.

yes!

That was her husband, and he had the right to know.

Zhang Ying was still very uneasy, but she also figured out that if Lu He couldn't understand her, it was her fate that was not to blame. "Okay, tell them two."

The two reached a consensus and fell into silence. It was not until they reached the entrance of the village that Ning Xi spoke up and said, "Second sister-in-law, come home, cheer up."

“Well!” Zhang Ying stopped crying a long time ago. She touched her face and forced herself to smile.

"After lunch later, you and your second brother came to see me and said we were discussing again."

“Yeah!” Zhang Ying responded.

Before the two people's plan could be realized, the salesmen who came to order canned fruits from Lu's house were already queuing up to the entrance of the village. The apricots made yesterday were sold out in the morning. Now these people are waiting for the new ones. of canned food.

Lu Nan promised to continue production today, with a limit of 200 bottles per person. Wang Xiuqin and Aunt Yang came out of the house carrying a pot of apricots. When they saw Ning Xi and Zhang Ying, they stopped and asked, "Why is it so late today?"

Ning Xi jumped out of the car and explained with a smile, "Brother Nan asked someone to help modify the car. We went to pick up the car. My second sister-in-law and I don't know much about riding bikes, so we learned this while walking."

"You're pregnant! What if you're learning to drive? What if you fall?" Wang Xiuqin said something to Ning Xi, and then started scolding Zhang Ying. "Yingzi, you are too. Xiao Xi is pregnant, and you don't stop her." "

Zhang Ying got out of the car, "Mom, I was wrong."

Ning Xi immediately smiled and said, "Second aunt, don't talk about second sister-in-law. It was second sister-in-law who was riding before. I only learned to ride for a while when I was approaching the village."

Wang Xiuqin said nothing more and urged the two of them to go back to the house to eat, "Okay! Go back and eat first."

Ning Xi and Zhang Ying were eating in the kitchen at the moment. Lu He had already rushed into the kitchen in a hurry, "Xiao Xi, Yingzi, please finish your meal quickly and mix some seasonings. The seasonings for spicy strips and dried fish are gone. Today's spicy food is hot." As soon as the strips and dried fish were made, people snatched them away, and the orders from yesterday’s stores hadn’t even had time to finish.”

"I know, second brother." Ning Xi responded, quickly took the food in the bowl into her mouth, glanced at Zhang Ying again, and whispered, "Second sister-in-law, cheer up, there are so many people at home. "People, go ahead and let others see the clues. After dinner, you go back to the house and change your clothes before you come out to help. We will talk about it tonight."

“Hmm!” Zhang Ying also knew that she was busy at home and did not dare to stuff food into her mouth.

Throughout the afternoon, everyone was almost too busy to touch the ground. After seeing off the salesmen, it was completely dark outside. The workers were exhausted and sat listlessly on the ground, beating their legs and hands.

At the end of the day, it’s almost time for a day of farm work.

Lu Nan pushed a wheelchair and appeared in front of everyone. "Everyone has worked hard. Thank you for your willingness to work so hard for us. Everyone is tired. My second aunt cooked noodles. Everyone wants to finish eating the noodles and then go back to rest."

Lu He also smiled and greeted everyone, "Everyone is exhausted today, so we all got up to eat noodles. Xiao Xi specially asked my mother to lay an egg for everyone."

"What are you talking about, Xiaonan? Since we come to work with you, we must not be lazy."

“That’s right, if you’re lazy, you won’t get paid!”

“There are still eggs to eat, so I have to hurry up.”

“I haven’t eaten eggs for a long time.”

"Can you take it back? My kid will definitely like it."

Everyone who was already exhausted slowly stood up, walked to the stone table, and picked up bowls of noodles in an orderly manner.

Ning Xi and the others also ate the noodles. Everyone either sat or stood holding a bowl of noodles and slurping on them. Not to mention that the noodles felt a lot more fragrant when there were so many people.

After finishing the noodles, Ning Xi gave Lu Nan a look when she saw some people were ready to put down their bowls and leave.

Lu Nan gave her a dissatisfied look, put down his bowls and chopsticks and said loudly, "One more thing, because everyone's workload is indeed quite heavy now, we decided to give everyone a salary increase after discussion. Each person will receive 45 yuan per month."
