When the few of them reached the Cheng Family, everyone saw that Cheng Xi had returned. They were very happy, but when they saw Cheng Fang behind Cheng Xi, both Cheng Er Gui and the Wu Family's expression changed.

Lady Wu directly mocked him, "Why did this Madame official lower herself to come to our poor peasant's house? We don't have much to receive. "

Cheng Fang was ridiculed by Wu Shi so much that her face turned red. Cheng Xi thought Wu Shi was angry, and quickly came out to smooth things over. "Aunt Wu, it's me who dragged Aunt Faang here with me."

Lady Wu glared at Cheng Xi, and said resentfully, "How do you think you were sent to the Xu Family? And this is all thanks to a good sister-in-law like you who told the word "birthdate" to Xu Family. Otherwise, she wouldn't have forced you to marry her. "

"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to. Back then, when husband asked his mother-in-law about the day of birth, he didn't know that they had such intentions, which was why he accidentally revealed the name of Xi."

Cheng Xi really did not expect this to happen, but Cheng Xi did not have any thoughts of blaming her, and would have to thank Cheng Fang for that. If not for the fact that Cheng Xi was forcefully married into Xu Family to please her, she would not have crashed into the coffin, and would not have been able to become the current Cheng Xi.

Seeing that Aunt Wu and her father had no intention to forgive her after hearing Aunt Cheng Fang's explanation, Cheng Xi decided to stand up and continue, "This is indeed not my fault. She doesn't know the truth, and Aunt Faang took good care of me while I was in the Xu Family."

In the end, Cheng Ergui's heart softened as he waved his hand and said, "Alright, it's been so long, let's go inside." The meaning behind his words was obvious. He probably didn't want to care about it anymore.

Cheng Fang was also relieved, her gentle smile recovered, and she followed him into the courtyard.

Xu Sanlang and Cheng Fang were called into the kitchen, while Cheng Xi carried the wooden bucket she brought with him from Xu Family.

As soon as she entered the door, Lady Wu complained softly, "After experiencing so many things, how can you not be cautious? What others say is the truth? Then if Cheng Fang said she didn't know, would you believe him? Don't look at how warm and gentle she is. Who knows what kind of intentions she has behind her back. "

Cheng Xi was unable to ascertain whether Cheng Fang was right or wrong, but since the Wu family was worried about him, Cheng Xi did not doubt them at all. She smiled and replied, "It doesn't matter whether or not Cheng Fang is related to someone else, since it has already happened, isn't it? "Don't worry, I won't let myself suffer any more losses. Besides, I called her over for a purpose. I have something to ask her."

Lady Wu looked at Cheng Xi suspiciously, seeing how confident Cheng Xi was, she did not ask anymore, and was curious about the wooden bucket in her hands, "Why are you bringing a wooden bucket over?"

While asking, he stuck his head into the barrel and let out a "Ya" in shock. However, since it was daytime, he was able to see clearly that the thing inside the barrel was a loach. He said in disdain, "Why are you carrying half a barrel of this?"

Cheng Xi brought the bucket into the kitchen and put it away, smiling as she replied, "This is good stuff, I'll cook a good dish for everyone at noon."

Lady Wu frowned and said, "You're not going to cook, are you?"

Cheng Xi nodded his head, "Don't mind me for now, you can talk about it after I've brought it out for you to taste."

Lady Wu did not hold high hopes for this thing to be able to produce any rare delicacies, but she did not take Cheng Xi's stage, and only casually nodded her head.

After putting everything away, there was still some stuff to be done in Lady Wu's kitchen, so Cheng Xi headed towards the main house by herself.

In the courtyard, Cheng Cai was burning charcoal in the brazier, seeing Cheng Xi coming out from the kitchen, he called out to him, "Come in and sit for a while, the brazier is about to start."

Cheng Xi nodded and went to the main hall, where Cheng Chen and Xu Sanlang were talking. Cheng Er Gui was listening at the side, and would speak up from time to time. They got along quite well, and were not as awkward as before.

It was a good thing that after Xu Sanlang went to the restaurant, he gradually changed a lot. The more intimate people were no longer as taciturn as before.

Furthermore, after staying with Cheng Xi for so long, her mind had become much more active. She knew that if she wanted to keep Cheng Xi, she would have to get on good terms with Cheng Xi's relatives first.

Cheng Qiang, on the other hand, was squatting and playing happily with Cheng Fang's daughter, Niu Niu, while Cheng Fang watched from the side with worry.

Cheng Fang walked to Cheng Fang's side and sat down. Cheng Fang raised her head and smiled at Cheng Xi, and Cheng Xi began to chat with him, "I still want to have some friends after all. I want to see how happy these two are playing together."

Cheng Xi kept looking at Cheng Fang out of the corner of her eyes, only to see a hint of regret flash across Cheng Fang's face. She looked at the two children in front of him and replied, "That's right, if only I had a companion."

Cheng Xi went on, "Then Aunt Faang should have had another one earlier."

Cheng Fang smiled indifferently and replied, "Girl, that child can be born whenever you want? You have to look at fate to give birth to a child. "

Cheng Xi replied, "Aunt Faang looks like a child with many descendants on his face, he definitely has the relationship of a child."

Hearing Cheng Xi's words, Cheng Fang revealed a satisfied smile on her face. Although she was happy with what Cheng Xi had said, she said: "Child, your mouth sure knows how to coax people."

Cheng Xi laughed and got to the main point, "Aunt is living in a county town with Fourth Uncle? We also live in the county, and have been out for a long time.

Cheng Fang thought that Cheng Xi would casually chat with him, but she did not care much about it, and just replied casually, "Niu Niu and I spend most of our time at our parents' place outside the city. Niu Niu and Niu Niu did not stay in the town, and we don't have a mansion in the city, so it's not too convenient for us to stay at the husband's place.

said, "No wonder, I told you that I couldn't get to see him for the first time, has Aunt Faang ever gone anywhere else? The furthest I went to is the county city, and Big Brother and the others went to the Prefecture City, so I also wanted to go there to see. I heard that Prefecture City is called Cloud City, and there seems to be a Prefecture City nearby, so I don't know what kind of Prefecture City it is, but can Aunt Faang go there?"

Cheng Fang shook her head and laughed, "You're just a child, thinking about how wild you are all day. Niu Niu is still young, how can I take her everywhere?

Cheng Xi asked, "Did Fourth Uncle go to the Moon City?"

How could there be a trace of doubt? He only spoke out, "Your Fourth Uncle has certainly been to the Cloud City before, and the Elementary Scholar is here for the Cloud City examination, and he even went to the capital to hurry up and take the examination. He took half a year to go back and forth, and I heard that he went over there to settle some matters some time ago."

Cheng Xi understood in her heart, as expected, the reason why Xu Wenyu knew about the Zhao Family was not because of Zhao Ke, but because of the information that he had received from the Moon City. Looks like I need to ask Zhao Ke about this.

Cheng Xi continued to pretend to be curious and ask casually, "Ah, your Moon City is big, is it far, what's so interesting about it?"

Cheng Fang shook her head, "I'm not sure either."

Cheng Xi tilted her head and looked at Cheng Fang like an innocent child who was curious about something, "Did Fourth Uncle come back to tell you?"

Cheng Fang looked at Cheng Xi's expression and replied in amusement, "No, why would I tell you about men's matters?"

Cheng Xi was not willing to give up, "You didn't even tell me anything?"

Seeing Cheng Xi like that, Cheng Fang could not bear to keep shaking her head, and could only reply, "I really did not talk about the Moon City, but your Fourth Uncle did talk about it, and how many people you met at the Moon City."

At this time, Cheng Xi was just like an innocent curious baby, "Honorable person, what is a honorable person?"

Cheng Fang kept feeling that the current Cheng Xi was more of a fool than usual, but she couldn't really say that there was anything wrong with it. After all, this was the reaction she should have at her age.

Seeing that Cheng Xi was still looking at him with a face full of curiosity, Cheng Fang could only continue, "Noble people are people with very high status."

Cheng Xi said with a look of regret, "It's a pity, I haven't even seen what my benefactor looks like, ah, by the way, can Young Master Yu be considered my benefactor?"

Cheng Fang did not seem to want to talk about this with Cheng Xi anymore, so she shook her head and said, "It can't be counted, right? When are we going back to the county? "

Cheng Xi replied, "We'll leave after the new year, right?"

Cheng Fang's expression paused for a moment, a look of distress flashed across her forehead, and she immediately said with a face full of worry: "I was also doing this for your own good, it would be better to leave as soon as possible."

Earlier, Cheng Xi thought that Cheng Fang advised them to return to the city earlier to not stay at the Xu Family, and it was true that she thought Cheng Fang was worried for them. However, Cheng Fang intentionally advised them to leave the Xu Family again and again, Cheng Xi actually suspected that she had other reasons.

Cheng Xi looked helpless: "The county's restaurant is closed, we don't have a place to go now, and will have to wait until the end of the year before we can go there. I know that the Aunt Faang is doing this for our own good, and I'm afraid that the Xu Family Member treats us well, and has other motives for letting us return to the Xu Family, but since the Xu Family Member has a request from us, she probably won't do anything to us, right?

Seeing that it was impossible to persuade Cheng Xi to leave, Cheng Fang could only reply, "As long as you understand it yourself."

Cheng Xi had always been paying attention to Cheng Fang's emotions. It just so happened that she was able to see the trace of unwillingness that flashed in Cheng Fang's eyes.

Cheng Xi did not understand, why would Cheng Fang be unwilling, but it was not good to ask Cheng Fang either, even if she did ask, she would probably not say it, so she could only bury it in her heart.

He had originally thought that Cheng Fang had always been thinking for her sake and that she might really be a good person, but now that he thought about Wu Shi's words and combined with Cheng Fang's previous reaction, Cheng Xi started to have doubts. It seemed that this Aunt Faang was not as simple as she appeared to be, and was even more likely to be as thoughtful as Xu Sanlang.
