Strange talk about the rules: I fast travel with my deskmate

Chapter 105: Exploring the Mansion (2)

The original owner was Zuo Ying, the daughter of the owner of the coffin shop in Paradise.

Paradise Coffin Shop is well-known in Zheyuan County, and many wealthy families come here to buy coffins and funeral supplies.

Her father's name is Zuo Zengrui. Because her mother passed away a few years ago, her father married Xu Xian and gave birth to a younger brother named Zuo Le.

In this era, not many people go to school, and even fewer girls can go to school.

But because the family had a little spare money, and because Zuo Ying always quarreled with her stepmother at home, her father found someone and asked her to send her to school.

The little girl just now is her deskmate, named Maizi.

Maizi's father was originally a teacher at the school, so she was one of the few girls who wanted to go to school.

Thinking of these things, Xiong Qingqing ran to the end of the alley, where Zuo Ying's family lived.

I don't know who planted a few lilac trees at the end of the alley. In Zuo Ying's memory, the lilac blossoms are fragrant and beautiful.

"Yo, you know you're coming back? The food is getting cold, and the whole family is waiting for you!"

A woman in a red coat was leaning against the door frame, holding melon seeds in her hand, and spat out the skins of melon seeds all over the door frame.

Xiong Qingqing's face darkened, this is Zuo Ying's stepmother, Qiu Guixiang.

"Old Zuo! Your precious girl is back from school! Hurry up and take out all the rice in the pot, and after you finish eating, you have to deliver the food to the shop assistant!"

Xiong Qingqing got into Zuo Ying's hut and put down the book bag.

A little boy with a thick head and a thick head came in and said, "You are back!"

"What? What are you doing?" Xiong Qingqing asked.

"I've been looking for you for a long time before I heard that you went to class. I guessed it should be you."

"Ah? What is me? Why are you looking for me?" Xiong Qingqing frowned.

This child is Zuo Le, the son of his stepmother Qiu Guixiang. He is five years old and still speaks clumsily, stutters, and has a serious big tongue.

"What did you say I was looking for you? You were detained by the proprietress in Zushan, and I went back to find you with great difficulty. I didn't expect you to be sent here again by the proprietress!"

After hearing this, Xiong Qingqing was so excited that he almost cried!
"Are you Xu Lingze? Is it really you? Great...I can't believe it..."

Xiong Qingqing hugged "Zuo Le" up, "You left me alone in Zushan, I would rather die than live..."

"Oh! What are you doing, put me down quickly!"

"Zuo Le" thumped twice, just as Qiu Guixiang saw this scene from a distance, and ran over quickly.

"Zuo Ying! What are you doing! He is your brother!"

Qiu Guixiang hugged "Zuo Le" over, glared at Xiong Qingqing and cursed: "You lose money! Thanks to your father for sending you to school! You've learned a fart! Don't you know what it means to respect the old and love the young?" ? You are doing this to me, to your own brother!"

Xiong Qingqing felt wronged, "What did I do to you?"

"Is it you who put soot in my cream this morning?" Qiu Guixiang asked bitterly.

"Soot in the cream?"

Xiong Qingqing thought about it carefully, it seems that the original owner really put the soot into the stepmother's cream, but it was not put in this morning, but last night.

"Do you still want to admit it? If you come out of this family, who else would do such a thing! You lose money, if I don't deal with you well, you don't know who is the mistress of this family now!"

As Qiu Guixiang said, he took out a feather duster from the large porcelain vase next to her, and chased her to beat it.

Xiong Qingqing grabbed the feather duster subconsciously, and said directly: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I was wrong, and I will never put soot in your cream again."

Qiu Guixiang was stunned, is this still her unlucky cheap girl?
Why are you so polite all of a sudden?

"Okay... okay, you are smart! Wash your hands and eat quickly, don't get ink stains!"

Qiu Guixiang went out with Zuo Le in her arms, and whispered, "Don't play with your sister in the future, be careful that your sister will lead you into trouble!"

"She won't spoil me, my sister is a good person." Zuo Le defended.

"You little brat, do you know what's a good guy and what's a bad guy?"

After Qiu Guixiang finished speaking, she rolled her eyes behind her. This damn girl actually taught her precious son to the ground!
The family usually eats in the yard. There are two trees in the yard, one is an apple tree and the other is a black date tree.

Since Zuo Le knew how to eat by himself, he picked black dates on the ground to eat every autumn, but he couldn't pull them out, and then he was beaten up by Qiu Guixiang.

Xiong Qingqing sat in front of the stone table, and was about to take the steamed buns when Qiu Guixiang gave him a blank look.

She didn't pay any attention, and directly took the top white flour steamed bun, and took a big bite.

Her father, Zuo Zengrui, watched and put some food into her bowl.

"Eat slowly, no one will grab you." Zuo Zengrui persuaded.

"Not afraid of choking!"

Qiu Guixiang complained and served her a bowl of vegetable soup.

"By the way, Guixiang, didn't I tell you to lay two eggs? Where are the eggs?" Zuo Zengrui asked.

"I sold all the eggs laid by the chickens these two days. If you want to eat eggs, it depends on whether the chickens will lay eggs tomorrow." Qiu Guixiang said angrily.

"You! It's just a broken egg, and you don't think it's a good thing! Our family hasn't reached the point of selling eggs yet! Both Xiao Le and Xiao Ying are growing up, so what's the use of saving money for those two eggs?" Zuo Zengrui said .

"You think our family's money came from the strong wind? Then in the future, Lele will marry a daughter-in-law without spending money? Xiaoying is married, so don't you have to prepare a dowry? Save those two eggs... It seems that the eggs were stolen by me same!"

……

Xiong Qingqing was too lazy to listen to the quarrel between the two, so he quickly took a few mouthfuls and put down his chopsticks.

"I'm off to do my homework."

Seeing that Xiong Qingqing had finished eating, Xu Lingze felt a little anxious, and was about to stand up when Qiu Guixiang firmly pressed him on the bench.

This woman, like Xiong Qingqing, is a strange girl.

"Where are you going? Give me something to eat honestly! Also, don't let my old lady see you picking up black dates on the ground to eat! Hurry up and eat!"

Zuo Zengrui touched his small face, and said in a low voice, "Lele, you have eaten half of this steamed bun and half of this bowl of vegetable soup. Dad will take you to eat peanut sticks in the afternoon."

Xu Lingze shook his head, "No, eating too much sweets makes my teeth hurt."

Zuo Zengrui and Qiu Guixiang couldn't help laughing after hearing the baby-like words.

"You little devil, do you know that eating too much sweets hurts your teeth? It's okay to eat some once in a while!" Zuo Zengrui said with a smile.

"No, I want to learn to write from my sister." Xu Lingze said.

"What kind of characters are you writing! You'll just go to sleep later!" Qiu Guixiang scolded.

"Look at you, it's a good thing for a child to learn to write! Lele, listen to Dad, learn to write if you want to, and sleep if you want to sleep." Zuo Zengrui said.

"Well, father, I will study hard in the future and buy you a big house in the future!"

Xu Lingze knows that parents like to hear such words, especially since he is only a five-year-old now.

As long as Zuo Le's parents are happy and don't restrict him too much, he can help Xiong Qingqing.
