The Pretty Peasant Wife

How could Old Madam Xu be willing to be threatened by a little girl like this? She didn't dare to go up herself, so she placed the bamboo whip into the hands of his second son's wife who was silent and said, "Go, give me a good spanking. Otherwise, you would really think that my Xu Family has no rules."

Lady Lee looked at the little girl who was holding a firewood knife horizontally in front of her, who did not dare to move forward, and only opened her mouth to scold Xu Sanlang, "Sanlang, look at your wife's character, you don't even know how to manage her."

Xu Sanlang seemed to be immersed in his sadness, as he stood there with reddened eyes. He didn't pay any attention to Lady Lee at all, but Old Madam Xu by the side said somewhat impatiently, "What are you standing there for? You can't even handle a little girl, what's the use of asking you. "

Seeing Lady Lee being pressured by Old Lady Xu, Cheng Xi took a few small steps forward with her bamboo whip, brandishing the firewood knife in his hand, provoking, "Come, the firewood knives that have just been grinded, let's see if your bamboo whips are strong, or the firewood knives in my hand."

On the surface, it looked like they were dead meat but in reality, it was just a bluff. Cheng Xi did not plan to use her blade to kill them, it was just to scare them, seeing that the Lady Lee was walking towards him with the knife in her hand, she slowly retreated behind Xu Sanlang, thinking that with Xu Sanlang's power, she should not be afraid of the bamboo whip.

When Lady Lee saw the firewood knife in Cheng Xi's hand, she finally stopped. No matter what the old lady said, she did not plan to take the risk.

Old Madam Xu saw that the Lady Lee did not dare step forward, and that the little girl in front of him was still holding onto her wooden sabre tightly, and she herself was helpless to do anything about it, and was so angry that she could only gasp for breath, "Inverse, truly unorthodox. Didn't you see your wife using her sabre to kill someone, and immediately snatched the sabre from her hands?

The ruckus in the Old Madam Xu finally brought the dazed Xu Sanlang back to her senses. She unloaded the firewood on her back to the door and coldly said, "Let's go back first."

After that, Xu Sanlang carried the two baskets on his back, and left with Cheng Xi who had half her body hidden behind him.

"Stop, did I let you leave?" "If you don't kowtow and admit that you're wrong, then don't think of eating in the future."

Xu Sanlang didn't reply, instead, he pulled Cheng Xi away from the Xu Family courtyard door and headed towards the thatched cottage at the back.

Feeling the pain on his wrist, Cheng Xi couldn't help but break free from the grip on his wrist. Standing on her tiptoes, she threw the firewood knife in her hand into the basket behind Xu Sanlang's back before massaging his wrist and complaining, "I wasn't hit by them, but you pinched my wrist until it swelled up."

Xu Sanlang lowered his head and looked at Cheng Xi's red wrist, he stood at his original position for a moment, but did not say anything, he lowered his head and continued walking towards the thatched hut.

Cheng Xi rubbed her wrist as she watched Xu Sanlang's absent-minded back. With a light sigh, she slowly walked forward to catch up.

Unknowingly, the two of them had already reached the corner of the Xu Family courtyard. When the two appeared, they saw a few figures quickly rushing over from the grass hut's entrance. Seeing the person in front, Cheng Xi felt her head hurt.

This person was the same person who came yesterday, her Fourth Brother Cheng Cai. Cheng Xi had already known the two people behind her when they were in Cheng Family, one was her other brother Cheng Chen, and the other was the younger brother born to the stepmother. Since Fourth Brother was here, then the stepmother, Wu Shi, would probably come chasing after them again after a while.

Just a moment ago, he had thought that the Xu Family Member was difficult to deal with, so it was better for him to return to Cheng Family. However, now that he saw the Cheng Family Member and thought about the circumstances of his Cheng Family, he felt a headache.

"Xi, where did you run off to? We've been waiting here all morning. "

Cheng Xi looked helpless, but she still replied, "We're going up the mountain to chop firewood."

After Cheng Cai heard this, his anger rose rapidly, and he scolded, "Look, she's only been here for a few days, her head is still injured, but she's ordering you to work. Yesterday, she told you to follow me back, but you didn't listen … …"

Cheng Xi's Second Brother Cheng Chen interrupted them all, "Father asked us to come over and take a look at you, and also gave you some food to eat. Have you finished eating breakfast, Aunt Wu made a biscuit for us to bring over, it's still warm."

Cheng Xi looked at the few people in front of him, and after listening to their words, she had a general idea of what was going on. It seemed like Cheng Cai had been convinced by Cheng Family Member, and wouldn't forcefully bring him back, but Cheng Xi was still moved.

As she thought, Cheng Xi smiled and replied, "Do you have a biscuit? "It's a pity, we've all had our fill, so we can only leave them for next time."

Seeing the satisfied smile on Cheng Xi's face, as if he had really eaten his fill, Cheng Cai felt at ease, but thinking about how Cheng Xi had followed Xu Sanlang up the mountain early in the morning to chop firewood, he felt a little uncomfortable. As the few of them walked towards the thatched hut, Cheng Cai opened his mouth and said, "A new daughter-in-law like you, who's so young, how can she order you to chop firewood on the mountain? How can you do this at home? "

Cheng Xi thought about the group of children she had watched on the mountain before. There were also some girls cutting wood, and there were some who were smaller than her, but from Cheng Cai's tone, it seemed that she did not need to chop firewood before?

She took out his own hands and checked them again. Her skin was tender and tender, and she really wasn't a hand that worked a lot, Cheng Xi immediately felt sad. Before she didn't come, her original life had been quite good, and now that she had arrived, she had changed into a different person.

Seeing that Cheng Xi had not said a word, everyone felt that Cheng Xi was upset by her words. Xu Sanlang was the first to speak, "Follow me and I will experience hardships, you go back with them."

"Cheng Cai, what do you mean by that? My sister has already been in your Xu Family for two days already, and you don't want her anymore, so you want her to return with us. Aren't you trying to completely ruin my sister's reputation? If you are like this, how can you make my sister stay in the Stone Bridge Village as a person? "

Cheng Chen's words finally angered Cheng Cai, "Cheng Chen, this is your blood sister, is reputation so important to you? So important that you are willing to let Xi suffer in Xu Family? I have truly misjudged you, you despicable person. "

Cheng Chen stared at Cheng Cai, "You don't care, but what about Xi? If you return to the Cheng Family, how will Xi live his life there? Who will dare to marry her in the future? What will happen to her for the rest of her life? "

Cheng Cai gave a cold snort as he looked at Cheng Chen, "Hmph, as long as you don't want to extend your hand, I'll take care of her. If no one marries, I'll marry her in the future."

Cheng Chen glared angrily at Cheng Cai, "You beast, you are her Fourth Brother."

Cheng Cai pursed his lips in disdain: "Who doesn't know that I am from the Ma family, at most, I won't be surnamed Cheng anymore, I will just change my surname to Ma."

Seeing the two people in front of him who were arguing and were about to make a move, Cheng Xi, who was already injured, felt a headache coming, and unbearably stopped them, "Stop arguing, if you want to argue, go back and stop it. I'm Xu Sanlang's wife now, so I won't follow you back to Cheng Family."

Right now, she didn't want to go anywhere and stay in Xu Sanlang's shitty thatched cottage. She didn't need to face her messy relatives and seniors, she could still calm down a little.

She also knew that the reason why his Second Brother, Cheng Chen, stopped him from going back to the Cheng Family, was not because of her reputation. Yesterday, her Second Brother had once whispered in her ear, "Going to the Xu Family, even if it would be hard on you, was still better than being urged by the Eldest Aunt to get her to sell you."

Cheng Xi's words finally made the two people who were arguing stop. Seeing that his two brothers had finally stopped talking, the little boy, who had been silent at the side all this time, heaved a sigh of relief. She passed the package to Cheng Xi and said, "Sis, Father and Mother told us to bring these over for you.

Cheng Xi received the package from her brother who was shorter than him, smiling as she patted her head, "Thank you, what's your name?"

After the boy heard Cheng Xi's words, he was stunned for a moment before opening his mouth to speak in a sad voice, "Sis, you don't even remember me? I am Cheng Qiang. "

Cheng Xi replied embarrassedly, "Xiao Qiang, I will definitely remember this well in the future. I won't forget it ever again." Although she knew that the boy was her brother, she didn't know his name, so she asked.

After taking care of the three brothers, no one expected Xu Sanlang, who had been silent all this time, to open his mouth again, "My life is tough, I will kill everyone around me, it's best if you guys bring him back. Regarding the matter of killing his parents, everyone in the village knows about it, you guys only said that you were worried about Cheng Xi, so you took her and brought her back, you wouldn't ruin her reputation."

This time, Cheng Xi felt her brain ache, and she opened her mouth speechlessly, "Since all of you are so concerned about me, then think of a way to gather some money for me, I'll just leave this place myself."

When everyone heard Cheng Xi's words, they all stared wide eyes at Cheng Xi.

"Sis, where are you going?"

Cheng Xi pursed her lips, and said in a free and easy manner: "The world is so vast, wherever I go, I'll find a place to stay."

Cheng Chen spoke out, "This is simply nonsense. Xu Sanlang, are you trying to force my sister to death?"

Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's free and easy expression, as though she was planning to leave just like that. In the end, she compromised and helplessly replied, "If you want to stay, then so be it."

In Xu Sanlang's eyes, Cheng Xi was still a little silly. A little girl who was a little too big to fawn over, yet he was clamoring that he should leave, if not, where could he go? Did he really think that living outside was so easy?

Cheng Cai was in a hurry yesterday, so he did not pay much attention to the environment at that time. Now, looking at this simple and crude house, he frowned and said, "This broken house, there's nothing here, how do I live here?"

Xu Sanlang acted as if he did not hear his, and said: "You entertain the guests, I will go to the small soup hall and rummage through the private area." After speaking, he carried a basket on his back and left with the hoe.
