Cheng Xi and the other two continued to walk outside as they replied, "We'll talk about it after we return to the county city."
Xu Wenyu was worried that once Xu Sanlang reached the city, he would not be able to find anyone. He hurriedly stood up and asked, "Where are you doing things in the city? When we get to the county, I'll go and see you guys. "
At this time, Xu Sanlang had already reached the entrance of the hall and was thinking that if he continued to hide like this, then it would not be a big deal. Furthermore, they had even planned to set up their own stalls, so there was no way they could continue hiding. Cheng Xi turned her head and replied with a light smile, "It's right at Ruyi Restaurant, Fourth Uncle can look for us there."
On the way back to the room, Cheng Xi did not speak, but instead kept her head down in deep thought. If she and Xu Sanlang intended to set up a stall in the county city, then Xu Wenyu definitely could not afford to offend her. Furthermore, he had to think of a way to restrain the Xu Family Member and prevent them from making trouble there.
It was just that Yu Zhaocai could use this method to restrain him, but he and Xu Sanlang had coincidentally saved him once. After half a year, had been using him for all sorts of things, so Cheng Xi was a little embarrassed.
As for Zhao Ke's wife, if he really had anything to do with Moon City, Cheng Xi would rather not have any relationship with him and make use of him. After all, her two brothers were following him around Prefecture City and doing things, and Zhao Ke treated Zhao Ke as if she was her younger sister.
After Cheng Xi was unable to think of a foolproof plan, she shook her head and sighed. She decided to think about it after returning to the county city.
Xu Sanlang carried the child and walked beside Cheng Xi. Looking at Cheng Xi, he frowned and sighed, thinking that was feeling terrible because of Xu Family Member's attitude earlier. He said, "Why don't we go to the county city to celebrate the new year?"
Cheng Xi raised her head to look at Xu Sanlang, and replied, "We're here to eat and drink, why should we go back to the city? The day after tomorrow will be the New Year.
Xu Sanlang stared at Cheng Xi. Seeing that Cheng Xi did not have any expression of sadness or anger when she mentioned celebrating the new year here, he asked doubtfully, "Aren't you angry about what they are doing?"
Cheng Xi replied with a smile that was not a smile, "Why should I be angry? We have ready-made food, ready-made drinks, and new clothes here, why should we be angry? "
As she said that, Cheng Xi mischievously blinked her eyes at Xu Sanlang, "Shouldn't they be the ones that are angry? "Please, let's go home for the new year. They've suffered a huge loss."
Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi and was not angry at all, but he became even more suspicious, "Then what were you thinking about?"
Cheng Xi did not plan to discuss these things with Xu Sanlang while she was at Xu Family, she only laughed and said, "I'm thinking about how to bring a child that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, I have never brought a child before."
The one hundred years old who did not want to stay obediently in Xu Sanlang's embrace suddenly popped out, looked at Cheng Xi and carefully said, "I'm very obedient, there's no need to bring me along."
Cheng Xi looked at the child in Xu Sanlang's embrace, those round eyes pitifully staring at her. To Cheng Xi, who had no power to resist cute girls, such a cute expression, the lethality was too great.
Cheng Xi couldn't resist extending her hand and pulled the child in Xu Sanlang's embrace into his embrace. She gave the child a kiss on the cheek and smiled as she replied, "Right, we are the most obedient children in a hundred years. We must also obediently listen to older sister's words in the future."
Facing such a gentle and cordial Cheng Xi, this child became bolder, took the initiative to reach out from within the clothes wrapped around him, and wrapped his arms around Cheng Xi's neck, asking suspiciously, "Are you my cousin's wife?"
Hearing the child's words, the corners of Cheng Xi's eyes twitched as she nodded her head. She did not expect this slightly older child to actually know her daughter-in-law.
He didn't want the child to continue speaking, so he was even more speechless. The child then asked, "Then I should be called cousin, shouldn't I be called elder sister?"
Cheng Xi embraced the child with one hand, and with the other, he helped the child search the clothes of the adult on him, preventing the child's arms from freezing outside. After that, she used her other hand to scratch the child's nose, and laughed: "You're a little mischievous, you know this too."
"What do you mean, 'small' or 'big'?"
Thus, the hundred thousand questions and answers began.
Seeing how difficult it was for Cheng Xi to walk while carrying a child, even though she was only so tall herself, Xu Sanlang still carried the child, listening to the big and small questions and answers as she walked.
It had to be said that the hundred year old child was very cute, and very pleasing to the eyes. After returning to the room, Cheng Xi and the hundred year old child slept together on the bed.
Xu Sanlang was worried that the two would feel cold and go out to burn the brick bed. After that, he would sit at the side and read the miscellaneous books that Fourth Uncle Xu Wenyu had given him, and would occasionally raise his head to look at the two laughing men on the bed.
Before long, Xu Wenyu had brought Lady Ma and Cheng Fang over, and Lady Ma and Cheng Fang were holding breakfast for the few of them. In Xu Wenyu's hands was a bag, which should be for the clothes of a hundred years old.
Lady Ma and Cheng Fang placed the dishes on the table, bade the two farewell and left first. However, Xu Wenyu did not intend to go, and passed the bag in his hands to Xu Sanlang, who was still seated on the bed, and said to Cheng Xi: "This is a New Year garment for Niu Niu, see if this child can wear it."
Xu Sanlang saw that Cheng Xi was sitting in front of her bed with her shoes off due to her messy clothes and children's jokes. She frowned as she grabbed her backpack and walked over to Cheng Xi, conveniently blocking Xu Wenyu's view of him.
Xu Wenyu was a smart person, how could he not understand Xu Sanlang's actions? He pretended to look away, and deliberately sat down with his back facing Cheng Xi, but he did not have any plans to leave. He still had things to ask the two of them.
Seeing that Xu Wenyu had actually sat down on the side of the table, Cheng Xi knew that this person probably wanted to ask him about the affairs of the Big Brother Zhao while the iron was still hot. His brows furrowed slightly as he received the clothes from Xu Sanlang's hands.
Xu Sanlang also realized that Cheng Xi was distracted, seeing that Fourth Uncle was still sitting there and did not plan to leave, and was still unorganized, he started to tidy up Cheng Xi's clothes himself, and then squatted down to put on Cheng Xi's shoes.
These hundred years were probably due to malnutrition. Originally, he was slightly older than Niuniu, but he was still a bit older than her. However, it was still better than wearing the clothes of an adult.
Cheng Xi slowly and unhurriedly helped the hundred year old put on his clothes. Xu Sanlang had also organized his clothes and shoes, and a few of them slowly walked over to the table and sat down to eat.
After he sat down, he began to eat his breakfast in silence. He did not intend to chat with Fourth Uncle Xu Wenyu at all, and Cheng Xi was taking care of the hundred year old girl who was about to eat.
Seeing that the two of them had no intention to talk to him, Xu Wenyu could only cough and remind them to take note, he opened his mouth first to get closer to the two of them, "There's not much food in this countryside winter, the food is definitely not comparable to the towns, you guys can only wait."
Cheng Xi secretly laughed in her heart. It was just a meal of breakfast, on the table, there was a steamed bun and millet congee, there was also a plate of pickled meat fried radishes, two side dishes, such food, she did not know how long it had been in pain for her. If she heard Xu Wenyu talk about this to them again, she would probably be so angry that she would want to smash her head against the wall.
While thinking about it in her heart, Cheng Xi still maintained a calm face, and purposely pretended to be very reluctant as she replied, "I guess it's still passable."
Xu Wenyu hated that he did not go and hit her, but he had no choice but to endure it. On his face, he had to smile and agree, "I've let you guys down, let's fill your stomachs first. Oh right, that Big Brother Zhao you were talking about, can you tell me about his situation? Let me see if the Big Brother Zhao that you all are talking about can be that fellow student of mine. "
Cheng Xi knew that the reason she stayed back was to hear more about Big Brother Zhao from her. Of course, Cheng Xi would not reveal too much, she had already thought of an excuse and pretended to not remember anything, so she asked her: "Which Big Brother Zhao is it?"
Xu Wenyu said, "Didn't you say that the Big Brother Zhao you mentioned this morning allowed you all to come to his house to celebrate New Year?"
Cheng Xi's face showed an expression of realization, "Oh, my master's Big Brother Zhao, what does Fourth Uncle want to know?"
When Xu Wenyu heard that Cheng Xi's master was also surnamed Zhao, his eyes shone as he asked, "You even have a Master with the surname Zhao? What master? What is the relationship between that Big Brother Zhao and your master? "
Cheng Xi purposely pretended to be "Why are you asking so much?", but she still obediently answered, "My master is Ruyi Restaurant's Chef Zhao. His eldest son was once a helper in Ruyi Restaurant as well, so I have always called him Big Brother Zhao."
When Xu Wenyu said that it was a chef, the hope that lit up in Xu Wenyu's eyes gradually extinguished. Looking at Cheng Xi who was in front of him biting on a piece of cured meat, and grumbling indistinctly "This meat is too tough", he could not help but go forward and place the plate on Cheng Xi's head.
Xu Wenyu stared at Cheng Xi for a long time. Even he was starting to suspect if this girl was playing tricks on him, but he felt that it was impossible.
Cheng Xi knew that Xu Wenyu was observing her, and this made her a little uncomfortable. She simply looked up innocently at Xu Wenyu, "Why is Fourth Uncle staring at me? Is there something on my face? "
