Chapter 257 Zhang Chunhua is here again
Xia Yunshu stood at the door of the new house, too afraid to step inside. She was worried that she might accidentally damage all the beautiful flowers in the yard.
Didn't we agree that the whole family would squeeze into a dilapidated thatched hut?
She turned to look at Helian Zhiyan, and the little guy chuckled, "I forgot to mention, Sister Luo Zhi built a big house."
Hearing the commotion, Xiao Hu and Mo Li rushed out of the courtyard. Xiao Hu, holding Helian Zhiyan's hand, sighed like a little adult, "I thought you got lost on the way."
The three little ones ran home, and Wen Luozhi led the others in.
Wen Muchuan had already asked someone to tell his family that there would be more people today, so he set up several large round tables in the yard, and Yang Guilan had already prepared the food.
"Thank you so much, brother and the others. We're just a bunch of shameless people who have bothered you," Xia Tingfeng said, clasping his hands in greeting.
After he finished speaking, he gestured to the wooden stake and the others to unload all the things from the carriages. The people carrying the things from the several carriages had made several trips without taking a break.
Wen Muchuan had never seen anything like this before. He kept waving his hands, saying, "It's just simple food! Stop moving it, stop moving it!"
Xia Tingfeng laughed heartily, "Brother, you don't know yet, do you? Your two daughters and that little one saved my two daughters' lives!"
Xia Yunshu leaned over and explained the whole story, but Wen Muchuan was completely confused.
"It's good that the children are alright!" He pulled Xia Tingfeng down to sit and poured him a drink with great enthusiasm.
Xia Tingfeng glanced timidly at Jiang Wan, and only after seeing her smile and nod did he boldly take the drink.
He only took one sip and savored it carefully, because he had never tasted such fine wine before.
If you drink it in big gulps like a normal person, wouldn't that be a waste?
Seeing that there were many people, Wen Luozhi got up and went back to the wine rack in the room to take two more bottles of Moutai.
Because Wen Muchuan loves to drink, she would exchange one or two bottles from the system every few days and put them on the shelf.
Who would have thought that people would be reluctant to drink such fine wine, and before long, the wine rack was almost overflowing.
Jiang Wan took a closer look at the wine she had placed on the table, and seeing Xia Tingfeng's blissful expression after drinking it, she knew it must be expensive.
She winked at Feng Qian, who nodded slightly and then left the courtyard to walk towards the carriage where Xia Tingfeng was sitting.
When he returned, he was holding a box that was neither too big nor too small, and it was unclear what was inside.
After walking over to Xia Tingfeng and putting the table down, he returned to his own table.
The food on the table had been almost completely swept away by the wooden stakes, and Feng Qian felt his temples throbbing.
"Are you all pigs?" He glanced at them disdainfully.
After swallowing the braised pork in his mouth, Mu Zhuangzi even poured the remaining broth from the plate into his bowl to mix with his rice.
Hehe, he ate a big meal at noon, but he was hungry again after taking a nap.
The food in the restaurants is absolutely delicious, and the home-style dishes here are also very satisfying.
With no other option, Feng Qian ate two bowls of rice with the remaining few vegetable leaves.
Upon learning that Xia Yunsheng was blind, Li Chunxing and Yang Guilan, who were heavily pregnant, took extra care of her.
Jiang Wan was deeply moved by what she saw; this family were all kind-hearted people.
Unlike the others, their eyes showed only heartache, not pity, when they looked at their eldest daughter.
The girl named Luo Zhi treated her like a normal person, and I heard she even dragged her into causing trouble.
This trip turned out to be a blessing in disguise; my eldest daughter seems much more cheerful now, and the misty worry in her eyes has lessened.
After a few rounds of drinks, Xia Tingfeng slammed his hand on the table and drunkenly recounted how he had helped Luoxue Manor gain a foothold in the past.
Wen Muchuan assumed he was just drunk and talking big, but the shadowy figures in the dark, each with a beggar's chicken in hand, found the conversation quite amusing.
"Boss, the owner of Snowfall Manor is so young!" Black Wind tore off a chicken leg, took a bite, and was almost pulled away by Xiang.
The general's wife is a wonderful cook; this beggar's chicken is so fragrant.
Luckily, he was smart enough to say that we didn't need to break the mud apart, otherwise it would have been completely cold by the time it got from the town to the village.
The shadowy figure pondered for a moment before replying, "What we encountered before was probably the old master of the manor."
After saying that, he disappeared in a flash. If he didn't leave soon, he would lose his chicken leg.
Don't let Black Wind's appearance fool you; he's the thinnest of their group, but he's the biggest eater.
Black Wind, not understanding what was going on, pricked up his ears and continued to listen.
Wen Luozhi overestimated the value of her new house. There were no more empty houses in the village, and in the end, they even had to use the woodshed.
"I'm so sorry to you all."
After she and Xie He tidied up the woodshed, Yang Guilan and Mo Niang laid out the old mattresses that had been taken out of the house on their wooden beds.
Although it's simple, it's comfortable.
How could the guys dare to pick up wooden stakes? Besides, these were laid much thicker than the ones they had at the mountain resort.
"What are you saying, Mr. Wen? We are the ones who have wronged you."
He sat on the bed and tried it out; the bottom was incredibly soft, and it would definitely be very comfortable to sleep on.
And so, in each room of the house, there were at least two men, with Jiang Wan and her two daughters sleeping in the largest room.
There are two beds inside, and it's perfect for Jiang Wan, who is pregnant, to sleep in one of them.
Several tents were set up in the yard, and the inside was also thickly covered. This arrangement was barely enough.
Xia Yunshu helped Xia Yunsheng stroll around the courtyard, which gave Zhang Chunhua, who had been lurking at the door, a chance to get around.
She looked at the two sisters as if they were shining gold.
He saw it all from the doorway; they were carrying large and small bags into the house.
And that pregnant woman, you can tell at a glance that the things on her wrists and neck are high-quality goods!
If staying at someone else's place can get you so many nice things, then wouldn't it be the same if you went to her house?
She pulled at her face, revealing what she thought was a gentle smile.
"Girl, girl!"
She called out twice in the direction of the two sisters and waved to them.
Xia Yunshu looked up and saw her. She walked to the door and asked, "Auntie, is there anything I can help you with?"
Zhang Chunhua smiled and pointed to the tent on the ground, "You're sleeping outside? That's not good!"
"Why don't you stay at your aunt's house? She has a spare room, it's not far."
After she finished speaking, she pointed in the direction of her home.
Xia Yunshu shook her head. "Thank you, Auntie. Luo Zhi has already made arrangements for us, so we won't trouble you any further."
She thought to herself, "This aunt is such a nice person!"
If it hadn't already been arranged, she might have actually called someone over.
Zhang Chunhua scoffed coldly upon hearing her words, her face showing disdain. "All arranged?"
"That girl Luo Zhi is really insensible. She accepted so many things from you, yet she lets you sleep in this dilapidated courtyard?"
"If it were me, I'd rather go without sleep myself than let the guests sleep here."
Her tone was sarcastic, and her expression was extremely harsh.
Xia Yunshu felt uncomfortable listening to this, and besides, what business was it of this old lady where they slept?
The Luo family is already working very hard both inside and outside the house, and now this aunt is making arrangements for their food, clothing, and shelter. She's really annoying!
Her smile faded. "We like sleeping here, it's none of your business."
