Chapter 420 Mother and son meet
After the Xu family returned to Xujia Village and other people in Xujia Village found out the next day, the news quickly reached the ears of Xu Er's family.
Compared to the enthusiasm of Xu Er's wife and others, Xu Er was very calm.
When he got the news, he asked someone to find out about it, and he even found out about Ergouzi's affairs.
Xu Er's father-in-law's family used to be peddlers and knew a lot of people. He also heard that the Xu family now has a very good relationship with the county magistrate.
It is impossible to say that Xu Er had no thoughts. He had secretly looked at the current Xu family, but he saw at a glance that the Xu family would not be polite to him.
It was he who chose to abandon his parents in the first place, so naturally he had no right to think about family affection anymore.
But people will never give up until they have tried. During the big shopping before the New Year, he finally got the chance to meet Old Lady Xu.
Xu Er did not call his mother, but just stared at Old Lady Xu without saying anything.
Old Mrs. Xu sneered. She knew at a glance what her former son was thinking. She pulled Xu Ning away.
Xu Er did not chase after him. Xu Ning looked back at his second uncle thoughtfully and discovered that he was more difficult to deal with than those people in Xujia Village.
However, it doesn’t matter if they are difficult to deal with. As long as you dare to attack, they will kill you.
If you are not kind, you cannot command an army. If you are not ruthless, all the Xu family members would have died on the way to escape famine.
After buying things and returning to the Xu family, Old Mrs. Xu told Xu Er about what she had seen.
"As long as he's alive, the rest is none of our business." Old Man Xu comforted Old Lady Xu. Since Old Lady Xu had seen the person, there was no need for him to see her again.
When Xu Er returned home that night, he also made a decision, asking the whole family to stay at home as much as possible and then leave Qin County after the New Year.
He used to be Mrs. Xu's favorite son, and he only needed to know what Mrs. Xu was thinking at a glance.
It was his idea of keeping to one's lot and observing the law that saved his life after he left Qin County, but that is a story for later.
It was only a few days before the Chinese New Year, and Xu Ning and his friends had been waiting for Xu Er to come and cause trouble, but he never showed up. Instead, the people from Xujia Village came to borrow money from Old Lady Xu and Old Man Xu every now and then.
Er Gouzi was scared after being beaten and didn't show up. The others felt that they hadn't provoked the Xu family, so they all shamelessly came to cry poor. If Mrs. Xu and Father Xu deliberately avoided them, they would squat under the wall of the Xu family and shout.
"Aunt Chunhua, my family is really alive. Please have mercy on me. I haven't eaten meat in several years!"
Xu Ning jumped onto the fence when he heard the sound. He saw a fat pig below and rolled his eyes. "Tsk, it's fatter and stronger than a pig during Chinese New Year. It's not like you haven't eaten meat in a few years, it's because you've eaten too much meat and your brain has gone!"
"You...you little girl, how can you slander others!"
Xu Ning: "Haha, you must have peed yourself even if you don't have a mirror. Look at yourself before you go out and see how fat you look like. You still have the nerve to beg for alms. I think you won't get any internal injuries even if you roll down the mountain!"
"Why are you speaking so viciously, little girl?"
Xu Ning: "Vicious, you are not vicious if you cheated the old man out of his money, and you are not vicious if you occupied the villagers' fields. You have done at least 70 or 80 vicious things, if not a hundred. How about I ask the county magistrate to come and help judge, are you vicious or am I vicious?"
"You and I…"
Under Xu Ning's death gaze, another scabby dog was driven away by Xu Ning. Xu Ning was about to jump down from the wall, but when he turned around, he saw Xu Yuan standing beside him with a cup of hot tea in his hand.
"Ningning, come and drink some water. You must be thirsty. Let's not compete with these people. Mom made fried meatballs today. Let's go eat some." Xu Yuan handed tea to Xu Ning while stroking her back. To be honest, these villagers suddenly stuck to them like dog-skin plasters, and the Xu family was extremely annoyed.
"Useless Aunt Yuan, they are so sure that we won't do anything to them that they dare to come to our house so brazenly and disgust us."
Xu Ning handed back the empty cup of tea and continued to explain: "Anyway, whether they want to get something or not, they won't suffer any loss. If we really can't bear it and give us money, they will make money. If we don't fall for it, they will succeed in disgusting us, and they will also make money."
"It's really infuriating, Ningning, why don't we just go put on the sacks!"
Xu Ning shook his head. "It's almost the New Year. They are just relying on the fact that we won't beat anyone up. Just wait and see. They will be even more rampant on New Year's Day."
"Second sister, are we just going to watch them run rampant?"
When Xu Feng came out with the freshly fried meatballs, he heard Xu Ning say that the people in the village would become even more rampant.
"Of course not." Xu Ning squatted down and wanted to take the fried meatballs from Xu Feng's hand. Xu Feng jumped up and squatted beside Xu Ning.
"Second sister, let's talk about it from above. It's a good opportunity to see who else will come over shamelessly."
Xu Ning nodded indifferently. She picked up a toothpick and poked two fried meatballs, then put them into her mouth, one on the left and one on the right. She chewed and thought at the same time.
Suddenly, a carriage entered the sight of several people. Xu Ning was bumped on the shoulder by Xu Feng, "Second sister, that carriage looks so familiar."
"Hmm..." Xu Ning's mouth was puffy. The fried meatballs were still a little hot inside. She exhaled twice before swallowing them.
"It does look familiar." The familiarity did not stop her from eating two more meatballs. Seeing that Xu Ning had finished half of the meatballs in one go, Xu Feng quickly forked a few and stuffed them into his mouth.
Xu Yuan tasted one and stopped eating. As the carriage got closer, Xu Ning and his sister saw the face of the person who lifted the curtain of the carriage without her reminding them.
"Jiang Yi?! Why is he here...?" Xu Ning didn't finish chewing the fried meatball in his mouth and spoke incoherently.
Xu Feng: "Here to do some work? But what is he going to do on New Year's Day?"
"It's a New Year's gift, right?" Xu Yuan couldn't help but remind them. Xu Ning and Xu Feng seemed to have stopped thinking while they were eating.
"Oh, yes."
In a corner not far from the Xu family's house, Xu Qianqian looked at the people on the wall eating fried meatballs with resentment, wishing she could take their place.
At the same time, her attention was also attracted by the carriage. She realized that the carriage was going to Xu Ning's house, and she was so angry that she tore her handkerchief into shape.
"Jiang Yi, are those Aning and the others outside?"
People who practice martial arts have sensitive ears, and Jiang Yan vaguely heard the voices of Xu Ning and others.
"Yes, Master. Miss Xu and Xu Feng are squatting on the wall and seem to be eating."
As the distance got closer, the carriage stopped directly under the wall where several people were squatting, and Jiang Yan also heard Xu Ning calling Xu Feng to open the door.
"Aning." The voice came before the person appeared. Xu Ning thought she had heard it wrong, until Jiang Yan stood under the wall and looked at her with a smile.
"Aning, is the scenery on the wall more beautiful?"
"Ah?! Oh no, no, there must be some!" Xu Ning scratched his head embarrassedly, and quickly stood up and prepared to jump down.
As a result, she didn't notice that she felt a little numb after squatting for too long, and she jumped down unsteadily and fell into the snow.
Jiang Yan's face changed and he quickly grabbed her arm, saving Xu Ning from being eaten by a dog.
But this scene also allowed Xu Qianqian, who was not far away, to see the whole picture, especially when she saw a noble man pulling Xu Ning, her resentment, jealousy and hatred seemed to solidify into substance.
Jiang Yan quickly noticed this disgusting gaze and shot a glacial look over there, only to see a woman with a distorted face hiding in a corner after being frightened.
"Jiang Yi, go check."
