farmer's wife

Chapter 132 Li Jin
"Mother, you are not someone who wanders without roots. Uncle found you."

Xiao Lie burned paper money one by one, talking softly to his mother.

After Xiao Jian kowtowed to pay homage to his parents, Fu Yan pulled him aside.

Uncle Wu stepped forward and knelt down for the master: "Miss, we are late..."

"But don't worry, we will take good care of you, Cousin." Uncle Wu bowed his head deeply to the ground for a long time before straightening up.

Xiao Jian looked at Uncle Wu in front of him, and asked Fu Yan curiously: "Sister-in-law? Why did this Uncle Wu come to pay homage to parents?"

Xiao Lie hasn't told Xiao Jian about his mother's life experience yet, and he stayed in the private school during the day before, and hardly met Uncle Wu.

Today is the first time I saw it.

Uncle Wu liked this well-behaved young master very much, he hugged him, laughed and even fed Xiao Jian snacks along the way.

Accompanied by his elder brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Jianjian also put aside his status as the first time they met, and called out obediently.

Fu Yan gently embraced Xiao Jian and said, "Uncle Wu is an old friend of my parents, so this Qingming Festival will come with us to worship together."

Xiao Jian nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Pack up your things and go down together.

Aunt Zhang has always helped them take care of the old house in the village, and there is not much dust in the house.

Xiao Lie led Uncle Wu into the small hall room and sat down: "The old house is simple and shabby, you just need to rest your feet."

"Is this what you built later?" Uncle Wu asked.

Xiao Lie nodded.

He was not surprised that Uncle Wu would know about their family's previous affairs.

"The old house is lived by the big family of the Xiao family? Your parents also lived there before?"

Xiao Lie: "When grandparents and parents were around, we hadn't separated yet. Our second room used to be the west two rooms of the old house."

"I don't know if you can take me to have a look." You can also chat with the master later.

Xiao Lie was a little embarrassed.

Now the old house is already lived by the eldest family of the Xiao family, and they are not on good terms with the eldest family, so they may not be able to enter.

Uncle Wu thought about the relationship between the two families, and said, "There's no need to go in, I'll just take a look outside. I'll take a stroll around the village as well."

It's simple.

Xiao Lie agreed: "We have to go up to the mountain to visit Master, it won't be long, let's take a stroll in the village after we come back. I just have to wait a while."

Uncle Wu smiled: "It's okay, I just have a rest. You just go."

In the kitchen, Aunt Zhang is also there.

They also greeted Aunt Zhang when they returned to the village and the old house.

Aunt Zhang has nothing to do today, so she simply came over to help Fu Yan.

While boiling the water, Aunt Zhang asked, "Ah Yan, who is coming with you?"

Fu Yan sorted out the cakes and cloths that she brought back to the village, and she handed the pile with the cloths to Aunt Zhang: "Uncle Wu is an old friend of my parents, and I came to worship together this time."

"Is that so?" Aunt Zhang asked shallowly, without going into details.

Seeing what Fu Yan pushed her, Aunt Zhang quickly refused: "You child, why are you so polite all the time. Take it back quickly."

Fu Yan: "Aunt Zhang, just take it. You have come to see me a lot during my confinement period, and you even helped us look after the old house. It's just a small kindness, not worth a lot of money."

"For folks in the village, it's just a matter of taking care of your eyes." Fu Yan stuffed the basket into her arms, Aunt Zhang refused several times and finally accepted it.

Fu Yan brought out the hot water pot and brought it to Uncle Wu. Aunt Zhang saw a slap on her thigh: "Oh, you don't come back often, do you have tea at home for guests? I have it at home, wait a minute , I'll go back and get it!"

Ye An was talking with Xiao Jian in the yard, when he heard Aunt Zhang's loud voice, he said quickly: "No need, no need. We have it in the carriage."

Fu Yan was also worried that Uncle Wu would not be used to the ordinary tea from the farm, so she asked Ye An to get it.

After putting away the tea and pastries one by one, Xiao Lie asked, "Okay? Then let's go to the mountain."

Fu Yan looked at Uncle Wu: "Uncle Wu, we have to excuse you for a while. Here you are..."

Uncle Wu: "You go on your own, Ye An is still here, so you can't be quiet."

Ye An scratched his head and smiled brightly: "Yes, I will talk to Uncle Wu."

Aunt Zhang looked at them and took the initiative to stay: "Alie and Ayan, you go and come back quickly, I will talk to these two guests."

It was getting late, and they had to rush back after a while, so Xiao Lie and the three didn't stay any longer.

In the old house, Aunt Zhang didn't know Uncle Wu's identity and background, and chatted enthusiastically with him about the affairs of the village.

Uncle Wu said that he was an old friend of Xiao Lie's parents many years ago, and he hadn't seen him for many years, he never thought that it would be a farewell.

When mentioning Xiao Shu and Li Jin, Aunt Zhang couldn't help sighing: "Hey...they are all hard-fated people!"

Uncle Wu: "Listen to the past of the old people, as if their voices and smiles are still yesterday, I wonder if you can tell me more?"

"We live in a village. The older generation knows this couple. Sister-in-law Ah Jin is kind, but it's a pity that she is weak and has to lie down from time to time."

Aunt Zhang looked out of the house with long eyes: "When she was pregnant with Ah Jian, I also went to persuade her. At that time, her body was not as good as it used to be, and Brother Xiao Shu was also worried about her body. It's a pity that you don't look at my sister-in-law. She looks soft and weak, but she doesn't listen to what anyone says, so she must give birth to Ah Jian."

Uncle Wu nodded, listening to what the master said, that's how my aunt's temperament is.

She looks weak and deceptive, but she is actually determined and tough in her heart.

He did not inquire about the old things that Aunt Zhang said, so Uncle Wu listened carefully.

"I was there the night sister-in-law Ah Jin was born." Aunt Zhang recalled the scene many years ago and said slowly, "The bleeding couldn't stop, she finally hugged Ah Jian and kissed again and again, pulling brother Xiao Shu and Ariel's hands are already speechless. I think she must be reluctant."

"Damn it... hey..."

"Brother Xiao Shu is also an infatuated man. He also collapsed after Ajin's sister-in-law left. I just feel sorry for Alie and Ajian brothers." Aunt Zhang wiped the corners of her eyes: "Why do you bring up these sad things? Don't talk about it, don't talk about it." .Now Xiao Lie is doing well."

Uncle Wu closed his eyes and remembered these in his heart.

He sincerely thanked: "On behalf of the Xiao family brothers, I would like to thank you for taking care of you for so many years."

Aunt Zhang was embarrassed by his thanks: "Don't worry, the folks in the village have been helping for so many years, and they can't be taken care of. Speaking of which, Alie and Ayan have also helped my family a lot."

Opening the chatter box, Uncle Wu led Aunt Zhang to tell a lot about Xiao Shu and Li Jin's past in the village.

Aunt Zhang spoke with gusto, and Uncle Wu nodded frequently, thinking to himself that he would report back to the master, so that the master could learn more about the life of the aunt and wife these years.

When the three of Xiao Lie came back, the two of them were still not satisfied.

Aunt Zhang smiled and said: "You guys are back, I have to go back after sitting for a long time."

Fu Yan: "Thank you, Aunt Zhang."
