Cheng Xi replied helplessly, "Father, look at me, I'm not doing very well. I look even better than before."

These words were not wrong, because inside a restaurant, the food was much better than in the poor countryside. It was also smooth and oily, and over the past two months, Cheng Xi truly felt that she had grown a little bit more fleshy than before, and that she was a bit taller.

Cheng Dagui sized Cheng Xi up from head to toe, and then nodded his head in satisfaction, "Then that's good, then that's good, that's good for all of you. From what your brother said, you know that Boss Zhao's wife very well. I walked for more than two months without any news, and I don't know if I went to the Prefecture City or not, but I was worried … "Sigh!"

At first, Cheng Xi had suspected it too, but because she had met Boss Zhao before, she gradually dispelled the suspicion. thought that it was understandable, but if he told him that there was no news at all, then she was afraid that her father would be even more worried, hence she simply spoke up, "Big brother did not send any news back, but I went to find Madame Zhao, she said that Boss Zhao and the others have long arrived at the Prefecture City and have settled down, so Big brother should be fine, it will not be long before she sends us news."

Hearing Cheng Xi's words, Cheng Dagui heaved a sigh of relief, the worry on her face had disappeared, "It's good that you guys have news, why have you guys come back?"

Cheng Xi replied, "It's been awhile since I last came back, so I came back to see, father, are your body and legs alright? Are you still taking your medicine? "

Cheng Dagui sighed and replied, "I'm afraid this leg of mine will only be like this. It's only a burden now."

Cheng Xi hurriedly comforted, "Father, what are you saying? You are the pillar of our family, brother is not home, Aunt Wu and little brother are still counting on you."

Hearing what Cheng Xi had said, and thinking of how his mother and eldest sister-in-law would come looking for trouble from time to time after their two eldest son had left, Cheng Dagui could only stop his depressed mood and focus. If he did not block them at the front, then his mother would probably be able to chase them out.

As Cheng Xi looked at the dark and uncertain expression on Cheng Dagui's face, she knew that the house was definitely not at peace. Thinking about the troublesome people from Xu Family, Cheng Xi worriedly asked, "Did the people from Xu Family come over to make trouble?"

Unknowingly, Cheng Xi had long been dragged out of the Xu Family Member, and these people from the Xu Family did not even think of Xu Sanlang as their own family.

Cheng Dagui shook his head, he did not plan to hide it from Cheng Xi, and sighed: "Xu Family Member did not come to cause trouble, but your eldest uncle's mother instead. Cheng Dagui was annoyed.

Cheng Xi looked at Cheng Dagui's worried look and reached out to grab his hand to comfort him, "When we earn money with big brother, we will take you guys to the county city, and then there will be no one to cause trouble anymore."

Cheng Dagui patted Cheng Xi's hands, "It's rare that you have such intentions, father is satisfied. You guys have made your own lives better, father will be happy."

At this time, Lady Wu brought out two bowls of noodles and placed them in front of the two. "Hurry up and eat. It's getting late. Rest early after eating. I'll make the bed for you two."

Cheng Dagui said, "Ah Chen's house..."

But before Cheng Dagui could finish, under Lady Wu's glare, he obediently shut his mouth.

After they finished eating, the two of them washed up and returned to Cheng Xi's room to rest. Since they were all sharing a bed and had pretty much gotten used to it, they were already tired after walking so they quickly fell asleep after a long time.

Since the restaurant did not open for business in the morning, and it only opened at noon, there was no need to get up too early, getting up early was fine, but the two got used to sleeping early in the morning. As a result, when the two woke up the next morning, it was already morning, and because it was during the busy season, Mrs Wu had already prepared breakfast.

Just in time, Cheng Xi grabbed Cheng Qiang's body that was rushing over. Cheng Qiang shouted towards the kitchen, "Mother, sister is up.

Hearing Cheng Qiang's words, it was likely that they had delayed their breakfast by getting up late. Cheng Xi awkwardly coughed, rubbed Cheng Qiang's head and said, "Go play by yourself, sister needs to go wash before you can have breakfast."

After breakfast, Cheng Xi took out the gifts she brought for the few people in the city, the snacks she brought specifically for Cheng Qiang, and a few cloths. Although they were not expensive presents, Lady Wu and Cheng Dagui revealed satisfied smiles on their faces, and spoke out: "You cannot spend so much money in the future, save more money for yourselves."

Lady Wu asked worriedly, "Have you prepared the 600 letters per month?"

Xu Sanlang nodded, "I'm ready."

Mrs Wu heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good, I heard that Old Madam Xu was arguing about going to the county city to look for you guys a few days ago, I'm afraid that's the matter, send it over as soon as possible, remember this matter in the future, if Old Madam Xu were to run over there and cause trouble, it would be troublesome."

When she thought about how she lost the one thousand two hundred gold coins, which was the salary that she earned from working hard for two months, Cheng Xi felt pain in his heart. However, what could she do about the pain in his heart?

Cheng Xi didn't want to see Xu Family at all, so when Xu Sanlang brought it up, he rejected him immediately, "You go ahead, I won't go."

Xu Sanlang looked at Xu Sanlang who had his head lowered in confusion, "What's wrong, hurry up and go? Come back early. "

Xu Sanlang raised his head and looked at Cheng Xi, "It's not good to always stay at your mother's place, it's better if we go back to our own room."

Cheng Xi thought about the thatched hut that had nothing at all, and she would have to move new things over if she wanted to stay there. She didn't even use anything to eat, and it was impossible for him to expect Xu Family to come to fruition, so she shook her head and refused, "Forget it, does she really have nothing to live in that shabby house? "I'm not going. Hurry up and send the money over. I still have to help out with the work when I get back."

Since Cheng Dagui was injured and unable to do any work, not only did Wu Shi have to take care of Cheng Dagui and her, all the work outside the house was also done by her. He should have taken the Bandanna Stick from his a long time ago, but he still had half of it.

Xu Sanlang's face was a little dark, he gave a nonchalant grunt of acknowledgement, then turned around and left. Cheng Xi looked at the black figure of Xu Sanlang's leaving figure, who had an obviously unhappy expression, and mumbled to himself, "What's going on now?"

Lady Wu came out from the kitchen just in time to see Cheng Xi mumbling to herself as she looked at the door. "What's wrong? Xu Sanlang went back? "

Cheng Xi nodded her head, and replied: "I was fine just now, but somehow my face suddenly turned black. This temper of yours is truly capricious."

Lady Wu asked, "What did you just say?"

Cheng Xi recalled, "It can't be that I am not going to stay in the thatched cottage with him, he is angry, but there is nothing in that thatched cottage, how can he live there?

Lady Wu sighed and replied, "Xi, Xu Sanlang is your husband and you are his family. No matter what that thatched cottage is like, it is his home.

After hearing what Lady Wu said, Cheng Xi finally understood. She was only picking out Xu Sanlang himself, and that was no wonder Xu Sanlang had a dark expression on his face, but Mrs Wu continued to speak, "That is not only his home, since you are married to him, it can also be considered as yours. By doing this, you will make him feel that you do not see him as a family."

Cheng Xi thought about all of Xu Sanlang's actions, and her heart flashed with a trace of pain, "I'll coax him when he comes back later, okay?"

When Lady Wu heard Cheng Xi's words, she was very pleased, "That thatched cottage is indeed not a place to stay, and you all definitely cannot rely on Xu Family either. You should stay at home, but you must have a good talk with Xu Sanlang."

Cheng Xi nodded and replied, "I understand."

When Xu Sanlang returned, it was rare for him to be as attentive as before as he stood up to welcome him. "You're back?"

When Cheng Xi saw the few bloody scratches on Xu Sanlang's neck, the smile on his face gradually froze. She frowned and asked, "What happened on Xu Sanlang's neck?"

Xu Sanlang said with a dark face and a low voice, "I'm fine, don't you want to go down to the ground? "Let's go."

Cheng Xi was actually quite angry, "Could it be that Xu Family Member did this? How can they do this to you when we send them the money we've worked so hard to earn? "What a fucking bunch of animals."

Xu Sanlang shouted at the top of his lungs, his expression extremely marvelous, and said sternly: "Don't talk like that in the future."

Cheng Xi also noticed that she had lost control of herself. Taking a deep breath, she tried her best to control her emotions and asked, "Did the old lady do this?"

Seeing that Cheng Xi was not going to stop until she asked something, Xu Sanlang could only nod his head and reply, "I just spoke a few words to her."

With just that one sentence, Cheng Xi had more or less understood what was going on. It was most likely that the sarcastic Old Madam Xu would not forgive him even if he took the money, causing Xu Sanlang to scratch his head.

Although Cheng Xi was angry in his heart, it was impossible for him to run to the Old Madam Xu and scratch it back. She could only sigh and say, "I'll go check if there's any alcohol in the room and use it to disinfect it."
