C82 When Bodhisattva Offers

At this time in the courtyard, there were quite a few people. Seeing Lady Lee being beaten up so badly by Second Brother that she was crying everywhere, not a single person went up to protect himself, and, the main culprit, had already scared himself to the side and did not dare make a sound. He had completely forgotten that his mother was being beaten up because of him.

It wasn't until Xu Erlang had returned from the outside that he hurriedly stepped forward to pull his father away, leaving Lady Lee on the ground. At this time, he had already lost all of his strength, and his face was swollen from the beating.

Cheng Xi tried her best to hold back the gloating smile on her face as she silently cursed in her heart. Being beaten up on New Year's Eve, this Lady Lee was truly the first time.

After watching the liveliness, Cheng Xi turned to Lady Ma and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Cheng Fang answered in time, "Of course it's for the best if you can help, the last time I went with you to my parents' house to taste your cooking, I was always thinking of it, why not show everyone your cooking and let everyone have a taste of it."

Cheng Xi was already regretting her decision. Why would she ask such a question?

But since the words were already said, Cheng Xi could only nod her head and agree.

Cheng Xi told Xu Sanlang to bring the hundred year old man back to the side room. After the two of them left, Cheng Xi planned to head to the kitchen with Lady Ma Cheng Fang, but who would have thought that when Cheng Xi took a step forward, Old Madam Xu, who had been sitting in her courtyard all this while, suddenly spoke out. "Wait, Xi, did you hit Zijie today?"

Of course, Cheng Xi would not admit it, but she would refuse to admit it, "Milk, you wronged me, I did not hit Zijie, but Zijie, he really should be taught a good lesson, it's fine if he did not help his own family, but he even taught some wild children to bully his own family."

Xu Zijie, who was initially worried that he would be dragged far away because of the beating he received, couldn't help but say after hearing what Cheng Xi said, "You clearly hit already. Second Sister said just now that she saw it as well."

Cheng Xi did not listen to Cheng Xi, she just shook her head like a rattle drum and said, "Do you want to hit me again? I won't come over, look at my milk, she wants to hit me again right in front of you."

Cheng Xi had a smile on her face as she said with a harmless look, "What nonsense are you talking about? I told you to come over because I have something to say to you, but you'll regret it if you don't. "

Everyone had a curious heart, especially a six or seven year old child. His curiosity was especially heavy, and if they continued to listen to Cheng Xi's explanation, they would definitely regret it.

When Xu Zijie got close, Cheng Xi moved like lightning, quickly gave Xu Zijie a blow on the head, and berated him, "You little brat, how can you talk to Third Sister-in-Law like that? If you listen to me, I will teach you a lesson? In the future, you are not allowed to speak nonsense and ruin your reputation as Xu Family, and are not allowed to bully your own family with the wild children outside, do you understand? "

Cheng Xi looked like she was beating a person up to teach a child a lesson, as she continued to teach Xu Zijie a lesson, not forgetting to give Xu Zijie a few more headaches. Looking at him, the old lady's face darkened as he saw that Cheng Xi was obviously beating up Xu Zijie, but he did not know how to stop him.

Xu Zijie was beaten up again, his eyes glaring like he was about to explode, but he did not expect Xu Wenyu who had been silent all this while to speak up: "Did you hear what your Third Sister-in-Law said? He would wander around aimlessly outside, fooling around with a bunch of country bumpkins. How could he not know how to read more books? I was still thinking of going to the county town to study, but I don't think it's necessary for you to act like this. "

The Old Madam Xu heard Xu Wenyu say something and they were shocked, he did not have the time to bother about's matter, so he anxiously spoke up for Xu Zijie and said to his Elementary Scholar's son Xu Wenyu, "How could this child not be mischievous? Furthermore, this is a new year, I was just playing outside for a bit, Zijie usually study at home, waiting for you to arrange for you to go to the county to study."

Xu Wenyu turned his head towards Old Madam Xu and said, "Mother, sometimes you are just too soft-hearted. Do you know how many people in the family really listen to your words? Every one of them are obedient, if this goes on, our Xu Family will be scattered. "

Although Xu Wenyu did this on purpose to flatter Cheng Xi, but in truth, Xu Wenyu was also annoyed by him. He clearly knew that he wanted to get on good terms with Xu Sanlang and profit from it, but this Xu Family Member was against him at all times, he had warned him many times, but he did not take's words to heart at all.

Cheng Xi did not bother to pay attention to Old Madam Xu, as she listened to Xu Wenyu and followed him into the kitchen. Since Xu Wenyu was blocking him, Old Madam Xu should not continue to pester him.

After Cheng Xi left, Xu Wenyu then said to his mother in a low voice, "Mother, I've long said that this Cheng Xi and her family is not simple, they have gotten to know some powerful people, and are no longer the same. In the past, I still hope that they can introduce me to them, these are now our living Bodhisattvas, you have to treat them well, look at us, aren't you going against me on purpose?"

Old Madam Xu frowned, "Look at that slut, she is simply overreaping. I have already tried my best to tolerate her, but she still beat people up, and even beat Zijie up in front of us …"

Xu Wenyu heard that the old lady's topic had shifted back and forth between Xu Zijie and himself, then he spoke with a gloomy face, "Mother, just based on Zijie's character, he has been completely taught by his mother. If you continue to be like Second Sister, you will definitely get used to having a Xu Erlang."

Hearing Xu Wenyu's tone, he was completely disappointed in Xu Erlang. If Cheng Xi heard these words, she would definitely be happy and laugh out loud.

How could Old Madam Xu be willing to admit that her grandson was useless, but she couldn't refute her fourth son's words, so she could only sigh and say, "Sigh, I'm old. I don't care about anything anymore.

He got up and went to his room.

The reason the Lady Ma agreed to help Cheng Xi in the kitchen was also to find an excuse for Cheng Xi to leave so that they wouldn't be entangled with each other in the courtyard. When they arrived at the kitchen, how could the Lady Ma let Cheng Xi make a move on them?

Cheng Xi originally wanted to help sincerely, but when she saw that Lady Ma did not allow her to interfere, she was happy and relaxed. Being an assistant in the kitchen, Cheng Fang knew that Cheng Xi's cooking skills were incredible, much better than her and Lady Ma.

After staying in the kitchen for a while, other than the weight of the dishes, there were only a few dishes. Lady Ma and Cheng Fang had enough food, so seeing that she had nothing to do, Cheng Xi bid the two people farewell and returned to the side room.

The moment he returned to his room, a hundred years old impatiently pounced towards Cheng Xi, her mouth constantly shouting, "Cousin sister, tell me a story, what a terrible story!"

When Cheng Xi heard her call him a hundred years old, she felt really awkward. She picked up a hundred years old and said, "If you want to hear a story, you can, but in the future, you are not allowed to call yourself a cousin."

A hundred years old looked at Cheng Xi in confusion, "Why? "Since you're cousin's wife, you should be called cousin."

Cheng Xi did not notice that once she said those words, not only did the hundred years old person in the room have a puzzled expression, there was also someone else who had a darkened face as he stared at her without blinking.

Cheng Xi carried her to the charcoal brazier and sat down, not noticing Xu Sanlang's abnormality yet. She opened her mouth and explained to the hundred years old man in his arms, "Look at myself being so young, yet you still call me cousin and not calling me old? Furthermore, my cousin doesn't sound nice at all. I'll call you sister from now on. "

Xu Sanlang, who was at the side, finally could not hold back and spoke with a dark and cold face, "Cousin is cousin, how can you just randomly call me big sister?"

Only now did Cheng Xi realize that something was wrong with Xu Sanlang, the tone of voice was clearly different from usual. In the beginning, when she didn't understand Xu Sanlang, she would think that he was always like this, and that nothing was wrong. However, after staying with Xu Sanlang for a long time, she could clearly feel that the current Xu Sanlang was definitely angry.

Cheng Xi turned her head and looked at Xu Sanlang with suspicion, "What's wrong with you?"

Xu Sanlang did not answer Cheng Xi's question. Instead, he turned to Cheng Xi and said to the hundred year old man in his arms, "Call me cousin."

The hundred year old raised his head and looked at Xu Sanlang, then looked at Cheng Xi, and her brows furrowed with a look of awkwardness, but Cheng Xi felt that being called cousin was strange, and unhappily pouted, and muttered: "Cousin, it sounds so strange."

"Then call me brother and sister-in-law, 100 years old, just call me that from now on."

Cheng Xi was stunned for a moment, seeing how Xu Sanlang addressed her so sincerely, she was too lazy to argue anymore and pouted: "So what if I like it, what story do you want to hear in a hundred years?"

Hearing that Cheng Xi was finally going to tell him a story, the one hundred years old said with an excited face, "You still need to listen to the story of Great Sage Qitian yesterday."

Seeing such a cute hundred years old, Cheng Xi couldn't help but reach out to pinch her hundred years old face, and replied with a smile, "Alright, let's continue with yesterday's story."

After kneading her face for a hundred years, Cheng Xi told stories as she thought that a hundred years old was still too skinny. There wasn't even any flesh on her face, and once she worked hard to raise a hundred years old fat, she would be even more adorable.

When Cheng Xi started to tell the story to the two, time flew by quickly. Even Xu Sanlang who was a hundred years old was not satisfied with the story, in the blink of an eye, Xu Lan had already called for a few people to eat at the main house.

The few of them walked over and looked at the two sumptuous tables of food. When the Xu Family Member was still not on the table, Cheng Xi pulled on Xu Sanlang's sleeves and asked softly, "Isn't the New Year's Eve dinner eaten at night? You're so generous at noon? "

Xu Sanlang also responded softly, "We will eat dumplings tonight."

At this time, other than Xu Wenyu and Xu Wenqiang, who had already come over to sit at the table, the others had not come over yet. When Xu Wenqiang saw the two enter, he smiled hypocritically and waved at the two of them, "Come and sit."

Xu Sanlang picked up the hundred year old girl, the two of them were not courteous at all, and went over to take their seats, followed by the rest of the Xu Family. Only Lady Ma and Xu Lan were still serving, but they did not see Lady Lee coming out.

After the old lady sat at the head of the table, she saw the hundred years old man in Xu Sanlang's embrace and said, "Little kid, just let him go to that table."
