Chapter 28

"Ding Ding, treat the water, I'll go to the village chief's house." Ding Shitou dressed properly, took the money bag and went out.

Ding Dian agreed, and when he entered the room, he was speechless, turned around and shouted outside: "Xiaofu, go get a basket!"

Xiaofu and Sister Lingdang were playing keys in the yard, their eyes lit up when they heard this, and they immediately ran to the kitchen to get a basket.

The boss didn't know where to get all kinds of food, some of them had never been seen before, and he didn't remind them anyway, he just said there was one.

Ding Dian said, eat as much as you can, the boss gives it, why bother so much.

They have been eating this way all these years, and they immediately understood when they heard Ding Dian yelling to get the basket.

Ding Shishitou was pushing open the gate of the fenced courtyard, and heard the excited discussions behind him about what to eat, the corners of his mouth twitched, he couldn't laugh or cry.

But she didn't stop, it was getting late, and she had to get things done quickly.

Passing by the gate of someone's house on the way, she greeted them very politely, as if it wasn't these people who blocked her house from digging the ground before.

And her politeness and sensibility made those villagers feel very embarrassed. When they saw her go to the village head's house, they gathered together to discuss the poor life experience of their brothers and sisters.

If it wasn't for having a home that you couldn't go back to, how could you settle down in a village in a foreign land?
The village head's home is at the head of the village, and there are several locust trees beside the road that are in flowering season, full of fragrance and pleasant scenery.

This area is also a relatively prosperous place in the village.

After dinner, the village chief was sitting with a few old men under the pagoda tree, smoking and chatting about something, when he saw Ding Shitou coming over, he got up quickly.

"Ding Shi is here, let's talk in the house." The village head knocked on the cigarette pot and walked into his yard with his hands behind his back.

"Thank you, grandpa, the village chief." Ding Shitou hurriedly bowed his hands, and then bowed politely to the old men under the locust tree.

The courtyard of the village head’s house is very spacious, but it’s not the largest in the village. It’s just that the village head has only two children and grandchildren, and one daughter married to another village, so it’s not crowded even if there is no separation.

The granddaughter of the village chief, Liu Qier, smiled and called out to her in the yard: "Brother Ding Shi! I'm only eight years old, can I call you Brother Ding Shi?"

Ding Shitou was embarrassed when he heard it. This is her rejection of Wang Cuihua, has it spread to the village...

But before she could respond, Liu Qier made a grimace and ran away.

Ding Shitou simply pretended to be dumb and did not respond, and followed the village chief into the hall.

A young daughter-in-law was sweeping the floor in the main room, she stopped her work immediately when she saw them coming in.

"Daughter-in-law, go make tea." The village head ordered.

The little daughter-in-law quickly agreed, and when she went out, she also gave Ding Shitou a look with a smile.

"Ding Shi, sit down first, I'll get the house title deed and booklet." The village head was very kind to Ding Shitou, and turned around and left the house after greeting Ding Shitou.

Ding Shitou glanced at it, and secretly sighed that the main room of the village chief's house was half the size of theirs.

"Brother Ding Shi, sit down, you're welcome." The little daughter-in-law came over to make tea and found Ding Shitou not seated, she was not surprised.

"Thank you." Ding Shitou quickly showed a reserved expression, which could be regarded as an indirect explanation of the reason for not being seated.

"You're welcome. I'm more than a year older than you. I married last year. Just call me sister-in-law Qiu Ling." Xia Qiuling introduced her identity with a smile.

But hearing that Ding Shitou was still teasing about her and Wang Cuihua, he couldn't help clasping his fists in embarrassment: "Sister-in-law Qiuling is being polite."

They have lived in the village for so long, so they know the situation in the village.

This Xia Qiuling is the daughter of the village head of Jiangxia Village next door. She married Liu Xuefu, the eldest grandson of the old head of Nancheng Village after she died last fall.

"As expected of being from a city family, this is a lot of etiquette, no wonder you don't like Wang Cuihua." Xia Qiuling put down her teacup and said suddenly.
