The hunter's husband is so sweet
Chapter 174 The whole family is too embarrassed to see anyone
When Qi Xiu'er was about to explain herself, the village chief's brother Yi'er came over with an old man. "Dad, uncles, this old man saw it." Yi'er's voice was crisp, and everyone turned around to look. Qi Xiu'er panicked. She didn't expect there were people there. What should she do?
The old man stretched out his hand tremblingly and pointed at Qi Xiuer, "That's the girl. I went to the foot of the mountain to pick up some firewood to cook for my wife. I was a little tired so I sat down to rest for a while. Then I saw the girl appear nearby and then she fell down."
The old man spoke slowly, and everyone listened patiently, no one urged him. "Old man, I wanted to help, and I saw him when I just stood up." The finger pointed at Fu Jingyi again, "And the little brother next to me, appeared before and after. I didn't go to cause trouble for him."
"Then the man asked the boy to call for help, while he stood far away and watched. But suddenly the girl stood up, walked towards the man, and threw herself at him." When the old man said this, everyone gasped. It was really like this. This family is too bad. I thought they were a family sucking Qi Xiu'er's blood, but who would have thought that Qi Xiu'er was not a good person either.
Brother Yier helped the old man to the door of Qi Xuan's house. Qi Yue moved out a stool and Lin Chen poured a cup of tea for the old man.
"Thank you, uncle." Qi Xuan thanked the old man, "If it weren't for you, my husband would have suffered a great injustice."
At this time, everyone looked at Qi Xiuer's family with even more disgust. They all felt that it was a shame for such people to appear in a village. The village chief also frowned and looked at Qi Xiuer's mother with cold eyes, "What else do you have to say?"
The people who came with them didn't want any money at this time and ran away. They didn't want to have anything to do with Qi Xiu'er's family, otherwise how would they survive in the village in the future.
Qi Xiuer pushed her mother away, looked at Qi Xuan angrily, and turned away. Her mother and brother also chased after them. This farce ended here, and their family probably had no face to see anyone, and they couldn't raise their heads in the village anymore.
"Brother Yi, thank you. If you hadn't called the old man, they wouldn't know how to make trouble." Qi Xuan sincerely thanked Qi Yi, then squatted down and said to the old man, "Thank you." Fu Jingyi also squatted beside Qi Xuan and thanked the old man, "Thank you, old man, you have helped me a lot."
The village chief patted Qi Yi on the shoulder and said, "Well done." The village chief remembered this old man. He was not originally from Qijia Village. He fled here during the famine a few years ago. There were only two old men here. Someone had asked them if they had any children. The couple wiped their tears and said that all the children were gone. Only the two of them were left, barely surviving.
The old man was about to go home when he saw that the matter was resolved. "My wife is still waiting for me at home." Qi Xuan helped to support the old man, "You said before that you were going to collect firewood, are you going to cook?"
The old man nodded, "Yes, I can't cook." Qi Xuan felt a little sad, "Please wait a moment, old man, we will take you back." After saying that, he asked Fu Jingyi to support the person first.
"Godmother, let's make some food for the old man to take home." Qi Xuan pulled Aunt Wang to the kitchen. Aunt Wang felt sorry for them and said, "Okay, let's make some thicker porridge and steam some buns. It's hard for the old man to digest it."
Half an hour later, Qi Xuan came out with a pot of thick and fragrant chicken and vegetable porridge, and Aunt Wang came out with a basket of freshly steamed buns. Fu Jingyi harnessed the ox cart and helped the old man up. It's not that he didn't want to use a carriage, but the carriage couldn't go into where the old man lived.
There were not many people that could sit in the ox cart, so only Fu Jingyi drove the car, while Qi Xuan and Aunt Wang accompanied the old man. The rest of the people stayed. "There is still porridge in the pot, just eat it if you are hungry." Qi Xuan told Lin Chen, and Fu Jingyi drove away.
After arriving at the old man's house, Qi Xuan was shocked by the dilapidated house. The roof was leaking in some places and the walls were also dilapidated. "Old man, your house is leaking. It's almost winter. What if it snows?" Qi Xuan couldn't help but worry.
The old man didn't think there was anything wrong with it, "It's okay, I'm used to it." The people in the house heard the sound and stuck their heads out, "Old man, why did it take so long?" came the trembling voice of an old woman.
"Old lady, you have met a good person. Look how fragrant it is." The old man called his wife happily.
Fu Jingyi got off the car first, then took the porridge from Qi Xuan's hand. Qi Xuan helped the old man get off the car, and finally Aunt Wang. When the old woman came out, she saw them gathered at the door of her house, "Old man, who are these people..."
"Hello, old lady. My name is Qi Xuan. Today I need your help, so we made some food to express our gratitude."
The old woman was very kind and invited them into the house with a smile, "Hehe, come in quickly. This house is too simple. Please don't be offended."
There was only a wooden table in the room, and the bed, nothing else. Qi Xuan and Aunt Wang put the porridge and steamed buns on the table.
Qi Xuan walked to Fu Jingyi and whispered, "Brother Yi, let's help the old man repair the house. How will he survive in winter?"
Fu Jingyi also thought so. There was a big hole in the roof of the house. I don't know how the two old people survived the rainy season a while ago. In fact, they were temporarily staying at the village chief's house at that time, but the roof was never repaired afterwards.
"Qi Yue and Zhang Hui's new house will be completed in a few days. I'll ask the person in charge, if they still have time, let them come to repair the house for the elderly, and we'll pay for it." Fu Jingyi expressed his idea, and Qi Xuan thought it was okay.
There was really no room for so many of them, so after delivering the food, Qi Xuan and the others left. Fu Jingyi also wrote down the route so that it would be convenient for them to deliver some more things later.
After returning home, the village chief and his family had not left yet. "How about sending them back?" The village chief was also concerned about the two elderly people. "Well, but the roof of the elderly people's house is leaking, and there is nothing in the house. I don't know how they live at such an old age."
The village chief also sighed, "I wanted to help them repair the roof before, but the old man refused, so I had to give up." However, this time Qi Xuan and Fu Jingyi were determined to repair the old man's house. "Village chief, don't worry, Brother Yi and I will find someone to repair it. If it weren't for the old man, Brother Yi would not know how they would arrange it this time."
"Okay, I'll leave it to you. I feel at ease." The village chief was very pleased and left with Qi Yi.
Qi Xuan asked Zhang Hui about the progress of their house and learned that it would be completed in three days. Then Fu Jingyi went to find the supervisor after lunch. After learning that they had no other arrangements for the time being, he took the supervisor to the old man's house. After roughly determining the place to be repaired, Fu Jingyi directly paid the money.
The old man and the old woman originally wanted to refuse, but Fu Jingyi said something to them and they agreed.
