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."

Xu Sanlang shook his head and replied, "No need, it's fine." His expression was not as cold as before.

Cheng Xi did not listen to Xu Sanlang and quickly entered Cheng Dagui's room. Xu Sanlang could only follow him in.

"Dad, do we have wine at home?"

Cheng Dagui pointed to the jar on the bedside table, and asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do with the wine?" The light in the house was dim, but Cheng Dagui did not see the scratches on Xu Sanlang's neck that had followed them in.

Cheng Xi replied, "Xu Sanlang's neck was stabbed, I will use wine to disinfect it."

Cheng Dagui did not think too much into it. He glanced at Xu Sanlang and spoke in a cold tone, "What does it matter if you're injured like a man? You're as delicate as a woman."

Xu Sanlang could only reply, "I'm fine, you don't need to bring any wine."

Cheng Xi glared at Xu Sanlang, "What do you mean nothing? What do we do if it's tetanus?

Cheng Dagui had been together with Cheng Xi for a long time, from time to time, he would say some words that Cheng Xi had never heard of before. He was not that curious, but Cheng Dagui asked him out of curiosity, "What s Breaking wind? What is that? "

Cheng Xi knew that she had said something wrong just now, if he were to explain it to them, she would need to ask where she heard it from, and how she understood all of it. It would probably be endless, so she could only say perfunctorily, "The weather is hot, and even the small wounds will easily be broken, or else the neck will be filled with pus."

Xu Sanlang said, "A little injury, I'm really fine."

Cheng Xi looked at this matter and was conflicted for a long time, she then said, "Father, please rest. Xu Sanlang and I will go down to help Aunt Wu later." With that said, she took the jar and pulled Xu Sanlang out.

"On the stone table in the courtyard, Cheng Xi was washing the deep bloody wounds on Xu Sanlang's neck while frowning and complaining," I worked hard to earn money for them to spend, but I still couldn't get anything good from them.

Xu Sanlang's expression was not as cold as before, as he sat there obediently and allowed Cheng Xi to play with his neck. She couldn't help but smile slightly.

When Cheng Xi finally finished washing her wounds and raised her head to look at Xu Sanlang, she saw that the corner of Xu Sanlang's mouth was slightly raised. Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang who normally did not have a smile on his face in astonishment, and then pointed at Xu Sanlang and said in a speechless manner, "You're still laughing, but you can actually smile."

Xu Sanlang bit his lips and shook his head, "No." It seemed like he didn't even know he was laughing.

Cheng Xi waved her hand speechlessly, "Alright, take care not to get wet." She then took the wine jar into the house.

Xu Sanlang watched Cheng Xi's leaving figure, his eyes filled with unconcealable yearning. How long had it been since he last felt such concern? He almost couldn't remember this feeling himself.

This kind of feeling made him want to tightly grab onto it, unwilling to let go.

When Old Madam Cheng entered and saw Xu Sanlang sitting in the courtyard, she could not recognize him for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?"

In these two months that he had been working in the tavern, he did not need to go out and bask in the sun. Xu Sanlang had become a lot more pale, adding on to the fact that Cheng Xi was too slovenly, with her hair and clothes neatly and clean up, the Old Madam Cheng had not seen much of the changes in the past few months, so Old Madam Cheng did not recognize him at all.

The Lady Zhang that came with Old Madam Cheng hurriedly reminded them, "Mother, he's that stubborn jinx from Xu Family."

When Old Madam Cheng heard that it was Xu Sanlang, her expression instantly changed. That gaze seemed to wish that it could stare Xu Sanlang down, and scold him loudly, "You jinx, why are you here at my son's house? Get lost now."

Xu Sanlang listened to Xu Family Member's various insults, and upon hearing Old Madam Cheng's words, her brows slightly twitched. She did not have any other expression, but she still stood up and prepared to leave, in case she got into conflict with the old lady.

Just as Xu Sanlang stood up, Lady Wu's voice came from the door, "Nanny, Xu Sanlang is our son-in-law, why are you telling him to scram so casually? If others knew, wouldn't they poke our backs?"

Lady Wu, holding Cheng Qiang's hand and carrying the pigweed on his back, said as they walked in.

Old Madam Cheng turned her gaze towards the Wu family and said with a face full of anger, "This kind of hardcore jinx. If I don't chase it out, can't I just leave it to him to kill my son? "You prodigal wife, how dare you talk back to me, be careful that I don't chase you out too."

Lady Zhang added fuel to the fire, "Second Sister-in-Law, how can you speak to Mother in such a manner? If anyone heard it, they would know how to make it up for Mother and Second Brother."

Cheng Xi was still drinking in the room and had heard the commotion outside. The old lady had a loud voice, Cheng Dagui who was sitting by the bed naturally heard the commotion outside and frowned as he took his walking stick and was about to leave, but was stopped by Cheng Xi, "Father, please stay in the room and don't go out. I will go."

Cheng Dagui's face was filled with helplessness, a look of pain flashed past his eyes: "You suckling her now, ai, you will be at a disadvantage, daddy will go out with you."

Cheng Xi smiled and comforted her, "Father, don't worry, I am not someone who would suffer a loss anymore. Please stay in the house properly, I will go out and send them off."

Cheng Dagui recalled the last time Cheng Xi went up against her Eldest Aunt, and she really would not suffer a loss. However, that approach was really inappropriate, and he said hesitantly, "Xi, that's an elder after all, you … You can't go too far. Someone will poke at your spine. "

Cheng Xi heard and felt helpless. She turned and looked at Cheng Dagui with a serious face: "Father, I know what you think, they are seniors, but seniors always have the appearance of seniors. I treat them like seniors, how did they treat me? Also, our family's spine has already been poked to pieces. If someone wants to poke it, then let them do so, we won't lose a piece of flesh. Rest in your room and don't go out. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. "

After hearing what Cheng Xi had to say, Cheng Dagui sighed with a face full of heartache, and replied, "Be careful."

Cheng Xi nodded her head and quickly went out the door.

In the courtyard, Old Madam Cheng was cursing at the Wu family, but of course, she was not a person who would allow others to toy with her. Her thoughts were pretty much the same as Cheng Xi, her backbone was broken when she died and became a widow, and later when she married into the Cheng Family, she would not care about that, she would be satisfied even if she lived as long as she wanted, but of course, she would not allow Old Madam Cheng to scold her.

But Lady Zhang was an especially annoying sh * t stick, from time to time she would interrupt with a few words, adding fuel to the fire just in time, causing the Old Madam Cheng who was about to extinguish the fire to once again ignite the flames of war.

The yard was extremely noisy, but Xu Sanlang was left standing, not knowing if he should leave or stay. Let's go, the Aunt Wu was already arguing with her mother-in-law, we shouldn't leave like this, not like this, I'm afraid that if Old Madam Cheng noticed him, she would be even more excited.

Just as Xu Sanlang was hesitating, Cheng Xi walked out of the house with the two hoes. It was extremely noisy there, and she did not notice Cheng Xi coming out, but she was afraid that Cheng Qiang, who had been hiding behind Lady Wu the entire time, would see her and look pitifully at Cheng Xi.

Cheng Xi walked over to Xu Sanlang's side and handed the hoe in her hand over to Xu Sanlang, then waved towards him. Cheng Qiang carefully moved forward to Cheng Xi's side, and then hugged onto Cheng Xi's thighs in fear.

Cheng Xi reached out to stroke Cheng Qiang's head, and said softly, "Xiao Qiang will obediently stand by Brother-in-law's side."

Cheng Qiang nodded his head obediently, and without waiting for Xu Sanlang to say anything, Cheng Xi took the hoe and walked to Wu Shi's side, raised his voice, and interrupted Old Madam Cheng's cursing: "Milk, did you hear that we have returned, and specially came to see us?"

Old Madam Cheng looked at Cheng Xi, and scolded him with a look of disgust. "Pah!

Lady Zhang was about to say something, but when she saw the hoe in Cheng Xi's hand swinging back and forth, and the sinister look Cheng Xi had as if she was looking at him, her gaze instantly extinguished. She closed her mouth and stood behind Old Madam Cheng, while trying to stay as close to the door as possible.

Seeing Lady Zhang's actions, Cheng Xi laughed coldly, and then picked up on Old Madam Cheng's words, "So the milk was for my father? "My dad just took some medicine to rest up. How about I go wake him up? I don't know if she woke up or not."

Old Madam Cheng lowered her voice as expected, glared at Cheng Xi, and scolded him, "You heartless thing, your father dotes on you so much, yet he doesn't know how to be filial to your father. He only knows how to take the money to be filial to others.

Cheng Xi raised her eyebrows. Perhaps, she knew why the Old Madam Cheng came here today to cause trouble, perhaps because she knew that Xu Sanlang had sent some money to Xu Family, and was then urged on by her big uncle and aunt, who was afraid that the heavens were calm and the earth was muddled. The old lady felt uncomfortable and came to vent her anger, but when she thought about the old lady's heartache for her son, Cheng Xi was too lazy to bother with her.

Sure enough, after Old Madam Cheng heard what Cheng Xi said, she started to scold him, "If you want to earn some money, take it out and give it to that old pious woman, Xu Family will really bring you up for nothing, you ungrateful bastard."

Cheng Xi mysteriously moved closer to Old Madam Cheng, who took a step back with vigilance: "What are you doing?"

Cheng Xi said in a speechless manner, "Milk, I have something to say to you alone."

Seeing Cheng Xi being so mysterious, Old Madam Cheng was a little curious, allowing Cheng Xi to whisper in her ear a bunch, while the others watched the two from the side.

The old lady's expression kept changing, her eyes were looking at everyone from time to time, and when Cheng Xi and the old lady were done talking, Old Madam Cheng would completely stop being angry, and her attitude towards Cheng Xi would also change.

The Lady Zhang asked curiously, "Mother, what is Xi trying to say in such a mysterious manner?"

Other than Cheng Xi, everyone else present would never have thought that the old lady would scold Lady Zhang, "You are a household spirit who only knows how to create rumors and create trouble everyday, are you done with your work at home? "All you know is that she's just running here and there, just what is she doing here? Hurry up and f * ck off back to work."

Although Lady Zhang was dissatisfied, how could she dare speak to Grandma about it? She quickly agreed and left. Her own man did not like him from the start, if Grandma did not like him, then she really would not be able to live her life in Cheng Family.

Seeing that Lady Zhang left in a sorry state, Cheng Xi was very satisfied. With a smile on her face, he said, "Milk, it's getting late, Xu Sanlang and I are going to work in the fields."

The Old Madam Cheng nodded, seeing the hoe in Cheng Xi's hand, she said with a complicated expression, "Go down and break the corn, what are you guys doing with the hoe? Hurry up and change the hoe, I'm going back first." After that, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
