Chapter 72： Neighbor

Chapter 72 Neighbors

Qin Huai wanted to be closer to Xiao Ayu, so he asked Chijia to negotiate with the village chief Hu so that he could stay at Lao Wang's house. But he didn't know that in the entire Hujia Village, the one who could not vacate the room the most was the Old Wang family.

They could only be divided into five rooms, Lao Wangtou and Mrs. Wang lived in one, and the other four sons and daughter-in-law lived in one each.

In the room of the son and daughter-in-law, there is a wooden bed separated by a few grandchildren in the family.

Seven grandchildren could not live there at all.

Even Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang lived in Wang Chuanman's room.

Before Xiao Ayu, the Lao Wang family had no granddaughter, otherwise they would have to arrange additional rooms.

Now Xiao Ayu sometimes lives with Mrs. Wang, sometimes with Liu Shi and the others.

Mrs. Wang heard that the young master from the county town wanted to live in their house, but she rejected it without even thinking about it: "No, we can't live in our house anymore, we can't live there, there's no place to live."

Village Chief Hu said: "People don't live in vain, and giving ten copper plates a day for accommodation is better than letting your eldest son go to work in the town?"

When the farming season is not busy, Wang Chuanfu will go to the town to work, but he does not work every day.

In order to save money, Wang Chuanfu commutes to and from the town every day. He often leaves before dawn, and he can only go home and sleep in the middle of the night.

After a month, I only saved one or two hundred copper coins.

Mrs. Wang's attitude was very firm: "Our family can't live there, let him find another place."

Not to mention now, they have A Yu who is hiding a secret in their family. If it is exposed, A Yu will be in danger.

Even before, she would not agree.

There are already many people in the family, plus two strangers, she can't worry about death for a day!

Just dragging the family to eat, drink, and lasa is enough for her to be annoyed.

"People like your little Ayu, so they want to live in your old Wang's house, isn't it good?" Village Chief Hu was a little puzzled.

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang was even more unhappy: "What do you like or not like in one day, how old is our little Ayu? She didn't have to ruin her reputation."

"Daughter-in-law Dewang, what are you talking about! That's not what I meant, that's just a child. The relationship between children is pure, and it's not as complicated as you think. What's more, that child is here to recuperate. Do good deeds."

However, no matter what Village Chief Hu said, Mrs. Wang disagreed.

Village Chief Hu had no choice but to tell Chijia to find another place.

Chijia didn't expect to be rejected, so he thought about it and said, "Is ten copper coins too few? I can still add more."

Actually, Chijia thought that giving a tael of silver a day should be enough.

Comparing the best inns in the county, it only costs one or two silver a day, and it can also be the number one room in the sky.

Who asked that coachman to teach him a lesson.

Village Chief Hu shook his head and sighed, "It's not about the money. You don't know, the Old Wang family is notoriously stubborn, and they won't agree to anything they don't agree with, even if they say it's crazy."

Although Village Chief Hu only told Mrs. Wang, he knew that Mrs. Wang's words represented the meaning of the entire old Wang family.

Chijia had to give up: "Which one is closer to them?"

Village Chief Hu felt that something was wrong. Why did he always have to be next to Lao Wang's house?

Looking at Village Chief Hu's puzzled eyes, Chi Jia quickly explained: "That's right, when our son was in the county, we played with that little girl, and I liked her very much at the time, so now I think it's close to each other. point."

Village Chief Hu then remembered that Ayu had been to the county town before.

But when did they play together?

But thinking about it, the other party has nothing to lie to, so he also put this matter aside.

"The closest to Lao Wang's house is the Hu Sanjia. Their second child works outside and doesn't come home all year round. There should be an empty room."

Village Chief Hu thought about it and felt that the Hu Sanjia was indeed not bad. Aunt Hu was an open-minded person and should be able to get along well.

Just in case, village chief Hu went to Hu San’s house to ask again. Hu San immediately welcomed him, and took the initiative to vacate the main house for the two of Chi Jia to live in.

Hu San also asked his family to come over and help bring Qin Huai's things over.

As soon as Chijia walked into Hu Sanjia, he was very shocked.

Thinking back then, they were marching in a hurry and camped in the open air, and they never lived in such a dilapidated place!

The main house is broken and sad, a wooden bed looks like a random patchwork, and new wood is stacked on top of old wood.

No footstool, no footrest, no bamboo curtain, not even a decent window!

The mattress on the bed has lost its true color, and there is a rotten smell.

The whole room is full of various things, and there are many miscellaneous things inlaid in the cracks of the walls, even a sickle!

The ground is not paved with stones, but made of pure mud. The ground is uneven and bumpy, and some of the small pits are sticky and sticky.

Chi Jia looked at Qin Huai, thinking that Young Master must be unbearable.

How did he ever live in such a place?

Qin Huai couldn't see any emotion in his eyes.

He even has an illusion, and the young master is a little happy now.

Xiao Ayu came back after picking flowers and found that his little brother had moved to Aunt Hu's house.

Aunt Hu's house is only a hundred paces away from Lao Wang's house, so she can hear her shouting louder at ordinary times.

Xiao Ayu took the flowers home and asked Lao Wangtou to help make a wreath, so he took the wreath to Aunt Hu's house.

Qin Huai was sitting in the yard. A peach tree was planted in the yard of Aunt Hu's house, and now the peach blossoms are blooming just right.

"Little brother!" Little Ayu lay on the bamboo fence and waved at Qin Huai.

Qin Huai glanced at her, and his frown unconsciously loosened, but the person sat still.

Aunt Hu happily went to open the fence for her: "Ayu, why are you here?"

"Three aunts, I'm looking for little brother!" Little Ayu said sweetly.

"Do you know him? Well, come in and play with him. I think this kid seems to be reticent."

Aunt Hu put the person in and turned around to get busy.

Little Ayu jumped up in front of Qin Huai like a rabbit.

She handed the wreath to Qin Huai, but Qin Huai didn't want to take it. He caught a glimpse of the wreath on Xiao Ayu's head and took it.

He was afraid she would put it on his head too.

"Little brother, what's your name?" Xiao Ayu circled around Qin Huai, revealing two glutinous rice teeth.

Qin Huaiben felt a burst of tearing pain in his chest and wanted to cough violently, but when Xiao Ayu approached, the pain suddenly receded like a tide.

It turned out that it was not his illusion that he was in the county before.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Xiao Ayu's expression with a little exploration.

"Who are you?" Qin Huai asked softly.

"I'm Ayu!" Little Ayu blinked, "Did you forget? I told you my name. You can also call me Fu Baobao, everyone likes to call me that."

Ayu, he knows.

Lord Zhang once asked him to help cover up her origins.

An outcast who was also disliked, but survived.

It should be a swamp-like character, how can his eyes be so clear?

Is    a trap they set?

It took a lot of trouble, for him... a dying person?

【Bao, he is dying. 】The voice of the group suddenly sounded.
