Chapter 42 The noise next door

Tang Ningning neatly packed the pastries and handed them to him.

After paying the money, this girl has no intention of leaving.

Tang Ningning looked at him, "What are you doing here?"

"I'll wait for you to finish selling and follow me home. I'll take you shopping." Wen Qilin leaned under the willow tree, looking like a bad boy, but he couldn't hold back his handsome face, which attracted a lot of attention to Tang Ningning.

little girl.

In the name of buying pastries, I came to see the handsome guy.

"Yan'er, you look good. Once you grow up in a few years, I will introduce you to a noble man in Beijing, and I will ensure that you marry into a wealthy family."

Wen Qilin was bored.

He became interested in Gu Yan.

Little girl Gu Yan counted the money in her hands and ignored her at all.

Tang Ningning didn't bother to pay attention to him and said, "I have to go home and take care of a few children, so I don't have time to hang out with you."

"Then what are you selling tomorrow? I'll reserve some and go back to give it to grandma." I don't know why, but grandma was able to eat what Tang Ningning made.

"If I sell it for a few more days, I won't sell it anymore. It's time to celebrate the New Year."

"Come to my house, or I'll go to yours." Wen Qilin flashed a pair of peach blossom eyes.

Tang Ningning was worried about this stupid kid.

The sun is getting higher and higher, and there are more pedestrians on the street.

There are women everywhere buying new year's goods.

In just half a stick of incense, all the sweet potato dumplings were sold out.

In the next few days, the sweet potato dumplings sold very well. Many women in the town heard about it and came to buy it. Even Wen Qilin came to buy it several times, saying that the old lady tasted it very delicious.

The profit from selling sweet potato rice rakes is not low. In just a few days, I have made several taels.

On this day, Tang Ningning had just finished eating for several children when she heard a noise coming from next door.

"Dahua, is someone coming to your house?"

It sounds like a woman's voice.

"Uncle and aunt are here." Zhou Dahua has been eating here every day in the past few days, and has become familiar with Tang Ningning. She is not as restrained as before, and her temperament is much more cheerful.

Tang Ningning told the children at home to stay at home with Zhou Shanyou, while she took Zhou Dahua to Zhou's house.

Zhou Shanyou is still young, so don't worry about this.

As soon as he entered the door of Zhou's house, he saw Widow Luo quarreling with a shrewd woman.

The woman was wearing a navy blue cotton-padded jacket, with a thin body and a look of vicissitudes of life on her face. She was quarreling with Widow Luo with her hands on her hips.

From the looks of it, he must be almost thirty.

Two days ago, Widow Luo quit her job in the town and devoted herself to taking care of Grandma Kang. She washed and fed her every day, which seemed tiring. The two of them didn't want to be happy, so why did they come to the house to quarrel.

"Let's leave it here. If mother doesn't come back with us today, you can give us twenty taels, otherwise we won't have to talk."

"Zhang Xiuhe, how did you beat my mother to such a state? There is not a single piece of meat in your body, and you still dare to come to your door and ask for someone. You just got it right. I feel sorry for my mother. I am thinking about my five hundred yuan a month. I will tell you today."

You, don’t even think about it!”

The two had a heated argument.

Widow Luo is not someone to be trifled with either.

I have long disliked this sister-in-law, so I almost started a fight.

Zhou Dahua hurriedly went up to pull people away.

Tang Ningning walked forward and saw the man squatting under the eaves of the door.

The man looked very irritable, his clothes were shabby, his shoes were torn at the front, he was wrapped in black cloth, and he was leaning against the corner without saying a word.

His face showed the vicissitudes of life, with his back to the loess and his face to the sky.

Seeing the two people about to fight, he yelled, "Stop arguing."

After saying that, he stood up.

Pull Zhang Xiuhe out.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiuhe stopped doing it.

She yelled, sat down on the ground, and began to cry about the hard work she had put in for the family in the past two years.

Tang Ningning looked at Widow Luo, who was gritting her teeth and turning red, and sighed.

This Zhang Xiuhe has only been married to the Luo family for two years.

As soon as they got married, my father-in-law collapsed from exhaustion and left within a few days.

Mrs. Kang could not withstand such a blow and became ill for several years.

The burden of the family fell on the couple, and they also had a niece to raise. As time went by, there were more and more complaints.

'Zhang Xiuhe, why did your father die? Don't you have any idea in your heart? If your family hadn't insisted on twenty taels of silver, my father would have died of overwork. How many years have he been married into my family? He has moved all the good things to his parents' house to support your brother.

Oh, if it weren’t for Brother Zhong, Awu would have divorced you long ago.”

"You unscrupulous person, what's wrong with me giving something to my brother? Our family is from the same village, and my mother's family is in trouble. Can't I, a daughter, respect my family? But you, what have you given to your mother's family? It's all trouble.

Okay, we have been taking care of Dahua for several years, do you have a good conscience?"

"Take care of Dahua, you didn't beat my son to death--"

The two of them were quarreling more and more fiercely. Zhou Dahua stood aside and bowed his head in silence.

Luo Wu pulled Zhang Xiuhe hard, but he wouldn't get up, and his buttocks seemed to be stuck to the ground.

"Mom is staying well at eldest sister's house, please stop making trouble."

His voice was weak and there was helplessness hidden in his eyes.

Tang Ningning shook her head, her ears typically soft.

There's nothing evil about him, he just can't control his shrewish wife.

It's easy to be ignored.

At this time, there was sudden movement in the house, accompanied by sobbing.

Tang Ningning hurriedly entered the house and saw the old lady falling off the kang. She heard the noise outside and silently shed tears from the corners of her eyes.

She couldn't help her up alone.

He said to the people who were still noisy outside, "The old lady fell to the ground."

Upon hearing this, the other three people, except Zhang Xiuhe who was still on the ground, quickly entered the house.

After working together to help the person onto the kang.

Luo Wu looked at his mother, and the thirty-year-old man choked up.

Tang Ningning was speechless and speechless.

Your own wife beat my mother till she was covered in bruises, didn’t you know?

There should also be a score in Yumutou.

"mother---"

Mrs. Kang sighed silently, and after a moment, she said, "You can take your wife back home. I'll be at your sister's house. It's good."

Luo Wu promised, but still wanted to speak.

Then he saw Zhang Xiuhe running in reluctantly, "What's good? What's it like to stay at my daughter's house all day long? What do the people in the village think of our house?"

"Go home." Luo Wu yelled, making Zhang Xiuhe lose face and continue to make trouble.

But Luo Wu glanced at the old lady on the kang, and felt sour in his heart. He didn't care what happened to Zhang Xiu, so he opened the door and left.

Zhang Xiuhe was left alone.

She cursed a few times angrily and chased him.

As soon as the people left, the room became quiet.

Tang Ningning glanced at Widow Luo and patted her shoulder.

She is an outsider and cannot say much.

"Sister Qiulan, I'll take Dahua and the others to my house first. You take good care of the old lady. I'll come see you again when you're free."

Widow Luo looked at her gratefully and said nothing.

Out of Zhou's house.

I saw a little head sticking out of the door.

"Shanyou?"

"Sister Xiao Ning, uncle and aunt are gone."

This little devil wouldn't have been staring at the door for so long.

"They're all gone." Zhou Dahua held her brother's hand.
