Chapter 38

Xia Xi's head dropped lower, and the people close to her clearly saw that there were big tears dripping on the ground.

"Mother..."

Qi'er called her at the right time, and her little face was full of worry.

"I'm fine."

Xia Xi wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and said strongly.

The people couldn't see it any more, and the village head was even more angry.

Originally, this was a household chore of the Yu family, which had nothing to do with him. But the villagers all knew that Xia Xi accompanied a lot of dowry when she married. A few days ago, her parents also said that they would give three Liang silver to the Yu family every month. It's hard to find such a good daughter-in-law with a lantern. The Niu family even hated her and scolded her, "Niu, don't go too far, Don't forget whose light you Yu have today. "

After hearing this, everyone nodded their heads. The former Yu family couldn't even have enough to eat. They married Xia Xi. They not only built a green brick house, but also ate white flour steamed bread every day. They ate meat every other time. Niu was not grateful, but also wasted so much time grinding others. It was too much!

"We don't care about our family!"

Niu was not afraid at all, and went back in anger.

Not to mention her son, as long as he was in high school, he would be a senior official. Even now, his status as a whole is higher than that of the village head.

Usually, I respect him because I don't want to have the same opinion with him. Unexpectedly, he put his nose on his face and dared to speak about her in front of so many people.

"You..."

The village head was so angry that he shivered. After being the village head for so many years, no one dared to contradict him like this.

Seeing that he couldn't say a word, Niu was even more proud, "what's wrong with me? I... "

"Mother, apologize to the village head!"

Yu Yi's angry voice rang out from behind her.

Niu's unbelievable turn head, "Yi son, what do you say?"

"Apologize to the village head!"

Yu Yi said in a deep voice. He walked slowly to the door. His clothes had been changed, but his face was still very pale.

Niu's eyes opened wide, "why?"

"The village head is right. Thanks to the help of my father-in-law's family, we should know how to be grateful. "

"That's voluntary. If they don't give money, our family won't marry this cheap thing..."

"Mother!"

Yu Yi interrupted her, with a slightly heavy tone and anger, "if you don't know what's wrong, your son will take them now and never let them appear in front of you again."

Niu was stunned and looked at Yu Yi with his mouth open.

Yu Yi's face was deep and solemn, and his pale face was full of determination.

Niu's panic, Yu Yi is her hope, whether she can go out of the village, whether she can become a rich old lady, whether ling'er and zhi'er can find a good mother-in-law, all depends on Yu Yi. If he left with Xia Xi, her hopes would be in vain.

"I, I, I..."

"Sorry!"

Yu Yi said in a deep voice again.

Niu's body trembled for a while, turned around in a hurry, incoherent, "village, village, village head, I'm sorry, I'm just a slip of the tongue, you don't mind.".

Yu Yi arched his hands and bowed to the end, "village head, my mother saw that I fell into the water. She was worried for a moment, so she could not say anything. Please forgive me."

Yu Yi's current identity is not what it used to be, and the village head did not dare to trust him. He hurriedly said, "where Yu Juren said, your mother loves you, I understand."

"Thank you very much for your understanding."

Yu Yi stands up straight and holds Xia Xi's left hand. His voice is gentle, which is quite different from his attitude towards Niu Shi. "My mother is too worried about me today, so she will be angry with you. Will you forgive her?"

"Good!"

Xia Xi's face was filled with a smile, nodded heavily, and her voice was very cheerful. "Xianggong, don't worry, I won't have the same understanding with my mother-in-law."

Yu Yi

Face stiff stiff, just barely show a little smile, taut her hand, "also want to trouble Xi'er help me back to our yard."

"Good!"

The smile on Xia Xi's face is more brilliant, bow, "Qi Er, you go to the other side to support your father."

Kiel went over and held out her hand timidly.

Yu Yi touched his head, "no, Qi'er is still young. Don't get tired."

Kiel took her hand back.

Xia Xi sees in the eye, the corner of the mouth hooked hook, what in the eye flash but pass, "Qi Er, you go back first, point the charcoal basin."

Qi'er nodded obediently and turned to walk towards the gate.

"Wait!"

Yu Yi called him.

Kiel stops and looks.

"Where are you going, from here..."

Yu Yi raised his hand and pretended not to know the direction of the moon gate, but when he saw that the moon gate was blocked, he swallowed the words back. He was very surprised, "what's the matter?"

"It's Xia himself..."

Niu was eager to complain, but she was puzzled. She had already told her son about all this. How could he ask in front of so many people.

"Mother..."

Yu Yi interrupts her, "let Xi'er speak for herself."

The smile on Xia Xi's face disappeared, and her voice dropped. "Yes, it's my fault. That day I was ill. Qi'er came to ask her mother-in-law for a steamed bread. She beat him, and I blocked the moon door in a fit of anger."

Yu Yi

I didn't expect Xia Xi would answer like this, holding her hand unconsciously.

Xia Xi's body trembled. "I know it's wrong. I, I and I will move the bricks now."

People clearly see her trembling in their eyes, eyes all gathered in Yu Yi holding her hand.

Yu Yi was also aware of his gaffe. He was surprised and let go. Seeing that Xia Xi's white hands were red, he blamed himself, "Xi'er, you can rest assured that this will not happen in the future."

What he said was ambiguous. Xia Xi knew that he was trying to cover up the fact that Niu had beaten Qi'er. She gave a sneer in her heart, but she had a smile on her face again. She was very happy. "Does Xianggong mean that her mother-in-law will let us have enough food in the future?"

Yu Yi

Want to strangle Xia Xi's heart all had, clearly before was a stupid woman, at will oneself make a fool of, today this is how, a bit not on the hook.

The corners of his mouth barely moved, "Xi'er, I won't let you be wronged again."

Then, afraid that Xia Xi would say something harmful to her family, she asked, "there are so many people today. How about asking them to help move the bricks away?"

Xia Xi nodded, "all listen to Xianggong."

Yu Yi had a smile and nodded to the crowd, "please."

After a while, the brick was moved away. Looking at the moon gate, Yu Yi was relieved.

Thanks to the people, and told the village head, "today the ice is cracked, let's not rush to catch fish, don't let anyone fall into the river."

The village head nodded, "I know that. Yu Juren should go back to the house to get warm. Don't get cold again and hurt his body.

"Thank you, village head."

Yu Yi thanks and signals Xia Xi to help him.

Xia Xi vigorously supported him, walked a few steps, opened his mouth, the voice was very small, but the people in the hospital heard clearly, "Xianggong, do you live in my room tonight?"
