Chapter 163 and

Having figured it out, Xiucai suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and his restless mood also improved.After moving the small bench back to the pot house, Xiucai made a decision in his heart, he will go back tomorrow, apologize to Lin Guoxiang, and strive to reconcile with her as soon as possible.Only in this way can other things be discussed.As for Wangjiacun, he now understood that this place was no longer his home, and to be honest, he would feel nothing but embarrassment if he stayed here.

As for the problem of face that has been entangled with, Xiucai no longer wants to think about it. Just like Lin Guoxiang said before, how much is face worth?Family harmony is better than anything.

After figuring this out, Xiucai couldn't wait to go back.If it wasn't for the middle of the night, he would probably drive the donkey cart away by now.

……

In the morning, after simply eating some breakfast prepared by Wang Liang, Xiucai secretly handed some money to the elder brother behind Mrs. Zhang's back. The excuse was to let him buy more food for the children, but in fact, he was telling him not to treat himself and the children too badly.At first Wang Liang was unwilling to ask for it, but after a while, Xiucai was afraid that Mrs. Zhang would find out, so she quickly put the money in the elder brother's sleeve, and said that the child's body can't always be that of pickled vegetables and steamed buns. Yunyun would be laughed at by others, so Wang Liang had no choice but to sigh and accept the money sullenly.

After sending the scholar out of the village, Wang Liang finally couldn't help telling him: "When you get back, talk to your siblings carefully, don't make them unhappy. Mother has me here, so don't worry about it."

Xiucai nodded, and responded: "Well, I understand, big brother, don't worry, I know what's in my mind. And you don't have to worry about your work. Guoxiang and her fifth brother promised that I would get someone to pay attention to it. I'll let you know when I have work." After thinking for a while, the scholar said again, "Brother, I have to say something, I really can't stand it anymore. Tell sister-in-law to stop beating and scolding the second son like this (Wang Yuan Er), that’s not good for the child.” Maybe the child will hate you when he grows up...

The last sentence of Xiucai's words was on the verge of his mouth, but he swallowed it back. Forget it, as long as the eldest brother knows it well, talking too much will make him feel uncomfortable.

Sure enough, Wang Liang was silent for a while when he heard what the scholar said later, and then said: "I know this, I will pay more attention to it in the future."

"Well, then I'm leaving." Xiucai was relieved when he heard what his elder brother said. Anyway, he has done what he should say and do, and the rest is their own business. As a brother, he can't care too much. .

"Then be careful on the road." Wang Liang watched the scholar drive away in the donkey cart, and his fingers couldn't help touching the sleeves to get a few pieces of silver. There was a flash of determination.He stood there and hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards the town, intending to buy some food for the children.

As for Mrs. Zhang, let her make trouble if she wants to, he doesn't care.

Besides, Lin Guoxiang, after being angry for a long time last night, finally fell asleep in a daze, and didn't even sleep until dawn with a dream.If a scholar finds out, he doesn't know how he will feel. He is so entangled that he is dying, but the lover feels the dawn, which is too unfair.

Although the quarrel with the scholar was not very pleasant, Lin Guoxiang still prepared a hearty breakfast, but this breakfast obviously didn't have much appetite.Xiucai was not there, and everyone who had a meal was very depressed. Probably Lin Fanghou and the others knew about Lin Guoxiang's quarrel with Xiucai.So the little ones ate breakfast hastily, each grabbed a donkey meat pie, put it in their mouths, gave each other a wink, and then ran away very consciously.

When Lin Guoxiang wanted to stop them, Lin Fanghou and the others were still there. Lin Guoxiang cleaned up the dishes on the table and muttered: "These brats, I don't know if they can't eat after eating." Vigorous exercise?"

As he said that, he sat there again and became dazed, thinking: I don’t know if Xiucai has eaten now, that dead woman of Zhang’s made such a fuss yesterday, it’s probably impossible to get up and make breakfast for him today.

Lin Guoxiang was stunned by this sudden thought, since when did she become so concerned with that damn scholar?

"Bah, I don't care about him. Even if he goes to outer space, it's none of my business!" Lin Guoxiang was annoyed by her own thoughts. A few donkey meat pies, I couldn't help picking up chopsticks and stabbing them fiercely as a scholar, and kept cursing while poking, "Go to hell, go to hell, grandma doesn't care about you...I'll poke you to death Die you, let you only care about that dead old woman..."

The scholar who was rushing back sneezed for no reason, he sniffed and muttered nonchalantly: "Who is speaking ill of me behind my back..."

……

When Xiucai arrived home just in time for lunch, the younger ones couldn't help being overjoyed when they heard the commotion and saw him come back, especially the two brothers Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue, who finally had a stone in their hearts. Parents are still arguing about reconciliation like last time.Children are actually the most sensitive. If there is any slight discrepancy between their parents, they will be worried, and their minds will be cranky.

Just this morning, Wang Yuanyue even thought of the tragic scene where he and his elder brother were abandoned by their parents, which frightened him a lot. The eyes of a child who seldom shed tears were almost swollen from crying. It poured down like a flood, and the waves were rough.In the end, it took Lin Fanghou and his three brothers a long time to coax him.

Later, I don't know how to let Mrs. Zhao know about it. It's hard to make the old lady feel bad. The person who usually doesn't want to say a word to his daughter has someone called Lin Guoxiang to go over and scold her.Lin Guoxiang was so depressed that she was in a panic at the moment, and the scholar unexpectedly came to her door on her own initiative.When he thought that he was half responsible for being scolded by the old lady, how could he not be angry?
So Lin Guoxiang went outside and stared at the scholar coldly with her arms folded, thinking in her heart whether she should beat this guy up or throw her out the door.But out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Wang Yuanzhi and Wang Yuanyue looking at her nervously, and his heart softened again. He suddenly remembered that he was just like them when his parents were not divorced.Every time her parents quarreled, she also had such a nervous expression on her face. I guess the two children were so frightened that they lost their minds at the moment, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Guoxiang couldn't help sighing, and the somewhat stiff expression on her face softened half a bit: "Go in and eat first, don't meddle in adults' affairs and children." The implication is that she has something to say to the scholar Said, you little ones, stop standing here and meddling.

Lin Fanghou and the others looked at each other when they heard Lin Guoxiang's words, but didn't say anything, they all ran back to the pot house, but after a while, four heads came out quietly from inside, and Lin Guoxiang turned around and slapped them. He glared fiercely, then quickly shrank back.When Lin Guoxiang turned around, four heads poked out quietly again, staring at her and Xiucai without blinking.All four small faces were full of nervousness and gossip.

Lin Guoxiang stood there staring at Xiucai coldly without saying a word, she was still thinking about how to deal with him.

Xiucai saw Lin Guoxiang standing in the yard and looked at him coldly without speaking, so he rubbed his hands and coughed dryly, a flattering smile slowly formed on his face, and he apologized to her slowly: "Guoxiang, I thought about it last night, I was too impulsive. It is really wrong for me to make my own decision without considering the feelings of you and the children, what, I was wrong and I formally apologize to you."

Lin Guoxiang looked at the usually gentle and elegant scholar with a flattering face at this moment, so she raised her head and squinted at the sun in the sky, and couldn't help muttering in her heart: It's normal, I haven't seen it coming from the west. Falling mountains in the east...then why is the expression on this guy's face so awkward?

That's right, Xiucai's current appearance and expression made Lin Guoxiang's teeth itch with hatred, and her hands also itch, wishing to give him a hard blow, and this desire became stronger and stronger, so strong that she almost couldn't help it. beat him up.

Xiucai naturally knew that Lin Guoxiang must hate him right now, so he didn't dare to say anything more. He apologized while observing his words and expressed a pitiful expression. Lin Fanghou, who was eavesdropping and peeping with his head this way, winked at them.

Lin Fanghou and the others understood, you pushed me, I pushed you, and retreated back to discuss in a low voice for a while in the pot room, and finally agreed that the youngest Wang Yuanyue came forward to intercede for uncle/father.The brothers cheered him up and encouraged him for a while, and then Wang Yuanyue officially "started to work".

He walked to Lin Guoxiang's side and stretched out a small hand to secretly pinch the sleeve of his mother's clothes, gently pulling it back and forth, and looking up at Lin Guoxiang pitifully with a little face with a little baby fat, He whispered: "Mother..."

At this time, the scholar was also very competitive, and his stomach was rumbling.He ate a piece of dry steamed bun in the morning, drank half a bowl of porridge with pickles, and drove the donkey cart for a long time. At this moment, his chest was already hungry.His stomach growled, so the scholar was embarrassed, and he was so embarrassed that he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and get in.It's okay to be in front of Lin Guoxiang, but Wang Yuanyue is also there, so where does he put his old face.

Lin Guoxiang was taken aback for a moment, and then her gaze involuntarily followed Xiucai's face to his stomach. At this time, Xiucai's stomach was grumbling loudly, making Xiucai's old face flush.Lin Guoxiang originally wanted to deal with him with an iceberg face, but when she heard the voice, she couldn't hold back a "puchi" laugh, but she immediately put on a straight face, returning to the cold look just now .It's just from her shrugged shoulders that it can be seen how hard it is for her to hold back her smile at this time.

The scholar lost face but calmed down. He coughed dryly and said, "Well, if you want to laugh, just laugh, don't hold back, it's not good for your health..."

At this time, Wang Yuanyue followed up and said: "Mother..."

Lin Guoxiang lowered her head and glanced at Wang Yuanyue, who was acting cute and pretending to be pitiful, and then glanced at the scholar. Finally, she couldn't do anything, and finally said coldly, "Come in for dinner. After dinner, let's see how I deal with you!"

"Yes, yes, daughter-in-law, you are the best to me." Xiucai hurriedly gave Lin Guoxiang a big smile, fearing that she would repent, and hurriedly dragged Wang Yuanyue towards the pot house.
