The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chu Xiao suddenly saw someone he hadn't seen for a long time. Especially since this person had changed a lot, he looked at him curiously for a few more times.

Honestly speaking, when Chu Xiao saw the Chu family again, he felt nothing in his heart. He even felt that everything that had happened before seemed like a distant thing.

It is as distant as the end of the world, buried in the deepest corner of memory. When I think of it occasionally, I feel no resentment or longing, and it is even more like a story that has been read.

Especially towards Chu Peng, he felt that he was just someone he once knew. He might be a little curious about the changes that had taken place in him, but it was just curiosity.

Chu Peng smiled and said, "I just called you when I saw you. If you have something to do, just go ahead and do it."

Although he was smiling, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed in his heart. Although his attitude towards Chu Xiao was not so bad in the past when he was in the Chu family, it was true that it was not good either.

After falling out with Chu Lao Er, he still made use of Chu Xiao to some extent, because he didn't know how long he would be away for labor service, and if the land was left with the village chief, something might happen.

It is possible that Chu Lao Er came back and continued to make trouble, and the village chief was forced to return the land under pressure, or other relatives of the Chu family wanted to take advantage of this and cultivated the land while he was away, and would not return it when he came back.

After all, he is not a real member of the Chu family, and they will always seize on this point to make trouble, which will cause chaos again.

Instead of this, it would be better to hand it over to Chu Xiao. He thought that with Chu Xiao's ability, no one would bother him, and the Yan family had good character and would not be greedy for the money from those acres of land.

In fact, he had another idea at that time, which was that if he never came back, the land would be given to Chu Xiao as compensation.

As for why it was compensation, Chu Peng himself couldn't figure it out. He and Chu Xiao were just cousins ​​before, so how could he be so unfair to this person?

It should be because he saw him being bullied by Chu Laoer's family and never helped or said a word. What's worse is... he really didn't care about this man's life or death before, and even helped bury the body.

Many times he would look at the burns on his body caused by lightning and secretly ask himself, if Chu Xiao had really died at that time, would he feel guilty now?

The answer is self-evident. He would not feel pain unless the knife cut his body. He did not empathize with Chu Xiaoxiao before, but now he understands and knows where he went wrong.

"Not busy." Chu Xiao smiled, not showing any difference, and asked like an acquaintance: "When did you come back? Which girl or boy do you want to marry?"

"I've been back for half a month. I didn't go to Anning Village because I was looking for a place to stay a while ago."

Chu Peng didn't dare to keep staring at Chu Xiao. It was okay before because he was his cousin, but now that they were no longer related, he was Yan the Hunter's husband. It would not be good for a man like him to keep staring at him.

"The man I want to marry is a young man from another county. His family sold him to me for three taels of silver. He said he didn't want to stay there any longer, so I took him back to Anning Town."

Perhaps fearing misunderstanding, Chu Peng immediately explained, "I'm not looking for a husband. It's just that his father doesn't respect others. He sent a young man to do corvée labor in place of his son, and when he finally came back, he wanted to marry him to a widower."

Chu Xiao didn't think too much about it, but after hearing this explanation, he was relieved that this man had a good conscience, so he smiled and said, "You should be short of money now. Come to the village tomorrow and tell the village chief whether you want to sell the land or continue to farm it."

"Okay, I'll go to the village tomorrow." Chu Peng nodded, then hesitated and said again: "Thank you, Xiao Ge'er, and...everyone is fine."

In the end, he couldn't say the words of apology, because he knew that the person in front of him would not care about it at all. Maybe he had chosen to forget what happened in the past. Only someone like him who did something wrong would always carry this thorn in his heart.

After the three of them separated, Chu Xiao went in to ask about the price of grain, and when he had an idea in mind, he and Yan Zhenshen left Anning Town.

"Chu Peng has changed a lot." Chu Xiao leaned against Yan Zhenshen and stuffed pastries into his mouth.

He always likes to do this when no one is around, you take a bite and I take a bite. He even wonders if Xiaoyuer will be unhappy when he sees him and his father eating like this when he is able to eat in the future.

So he had to hurry up and feed his brother Shen while the child was still young and ignorant.

Yan Zhenshen swallowed the pastry in a few gulps and just nodded slightly in response to his husband's words. No matter how this man had changed, he disliked the Chu family from the bottom of his heart, which naturally included Chu Peng.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chu Xiao could more or less guess that he didn't like him. This was because his brother Shen cared about him. Just like the Yan family might be able to let go of what other relatives of the Yan family did in the past because of their kinship, and he would feel hatred every time he thought about it, Brother Shen might feel the same way towards the Chu family.

The more he cares, the more he cannot accept anyone hurting him, even if the incident has passed or they will no longer have any contact in the future.

"He still has some conscience. Tomorrow we will pay him the normal price for paddy fields. He will be a man who will support his wife and children in the future."

"Yeah." Yan Zhenshen nodded, indicating that he understood. He would not interfere with his husband's thoughts, but it was impossible to ask him to let bygones be bygones.

The wheels of the car rolled on the ground, and it would bump around from time to time. Meeting Chu Peng today reminded Chu Xiao of what Aunt Wu had said about meeting Li Xiulan.

Logically speaking, Lijia Village is not too far from Anning Village, so if Li Xiulan comes back, no one should talk about it. There are many aunts visiting the house now, and if someone talks about it, Zhao Guizhi will naturally know.

To say that he was interested in Li Xiulan was of course not. The main reason was that he knew that a dog will always eat shit. This person had been a bad boy for half his life. He would find it strange if nothing happened when she came back.

He was naturally not happy to have such a nuisance to watch. He could talk about it next time when he visited Boss Chu's family's grave, so that he wouldn't be at a loss for what to say every time.

If people have souls, and they burn paper quietly, the soul will watch them burning paper. Just thinking about that scene makes me feel quite awkward.

Just as he was thinking this, the ox cart passed a steep slope and the downward speed suddenly increased. A gust of cold wind blew in his face, making Chu Xiao shiver unconsciously.

He looked up at the sky, and it happened that dark clouds were covering the sun, casting a shadow and reducing the brightness a lot.

They say you shouldn't talk about people during the day and don't talk about ghosts at night. He was obviously just thinking about it during the day. Why did he suddenly become so creepy?

"Are you cold?" His shoulders were suddenly embraced and wrapped in a warm embrace. All the dark thoughts in Chu Xiao's mind disappeared instantly.

"Not cold." Chu Xiao leaned into the man's arms again. With this natural heater, how could he feel cold?
