"Sister-in-law!" Xiaodou Sprouts immediately rushed forward and hugged Qiao Xiaoru to be cute, rubbed Qiao Xiaoru and said aggrievedly: "My aunt said that I am thin, dark and short, and I must have never eaten a full meal." I said that it would be nice if I was a little stronger, and maybe she could help me in two years, and find an errand and miscellaneous apprentice in a shop in the city, so that I could learn a craft and make a living! Hmph, who said I was thin, dark and short, who said I hadn't eaten enough, she said all the nonsense! I don't want to be the apprentice she's looking for! Sister-in-law, am I really thin, dark, and short? ”

Little Bean Sprouts looked at Qiao Xiaoru with blank eyes.

This kid hurts his self-esteem!

I think too, thin, dark, and short, grandma, which normal person would like to listen to others describe themselves to their faces! This aunt really doesn't treat her nephew as a nephew!

But if you have the slightest pity, you won't say such a thing!

Thinking of the eldest aunt's unbridled inquiring gaze, her lofty expression and her sharp smile when she looked at herself, it is entirely conceivable what kind of expression and tone she had when she said such a thing to Little Bean Sprouts, and it was not strange that Little Bean Sprouts was not happy to see her.

Before Qiao Xiaoru could speak, Tian Shi hurriedly said: "Your eldest aunt thinks that she hasn't seen you for a long time, just say it casually, silly boy, this is also angry!" She doesn't know that we want to send you to school, but it's also because of you, who cares about our family, why did she say to help you find an apprenticeship, this is also her intention, look at you, how can you be annoyed about this! ”

"Humph!" Little Bean Sprouts stubbornly turned her head, her little face was puffed up, and she said very unhappily: "Where am I like an apprentice!" Why did she say she would send me to be an apprentice? I don't eat from her house! ”

The sister-in-law obviously wants to send him to study, he wants to be like Brother Jinhe, and fight for the family, so that he doesn't want to be an apprentice.

Don't think he doesn't understand, my father used to be an apprentice in the carriage and horse shop, and the eldest aunt and second aunt said that my father was a slave for people, and it was luck that he was not killed! It can be seen that being an apprentice is not a good job!

Qiao Xiaoru knew that her mother-in-law was a white lotus-like character, kind, empathetic, and generous at heart, sometimes speechless.

Such a temperament will pity her a little when she meets herself, and when she meets the Yang family and the eldest aunt, in their eyes, I am afraid that it is no different from a stupid person.

Qiao Xiaoru didn't bother to theorize what she said, so she only patted the little bean sprouts lightly and said with a smile: "Huaixuan, the mouth grows on others, how people like to say it, you still care about this, stupid or not!" She said what you are, what are you? ”

Seeing that the Tian family seems to regard the eldest aunt as a relative, Qiao Xiaoru didn't say anything more ugly, but only comforted the little bean sprouts.

The little bean sprouts were really stunned, and their anger eased slightly.

What a good seedling to teach! Qiao Xiaoru secretly praised in her heart, and then said with a smile: "Eat hard, keep exercising, grow tall and strong, sturdy, no one can say you anymore!" If you enter the academy and study hard, and come back after taking the exam in the future, who can say that you are not even qualified to be an apprentice! ”

"Hmmm! I know, sister-in-law! Xiao Dou Sprouts' eyes lit up, and he suddenly became high-spirited, straightened his chest, and said seriously: "I will definitely grow tall and strong, and be strong!" Also, not only Xiucai, I want to take the top exam for my sister-in-law and mother! ”

Tian and Qiao Xiaoru both laughed.

"Ambitious!" Qiao Xiaoru gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Then now, hurry up and get ready to eat!" ”

"Good!" The little bean sprouts happily went to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks.

Tian glanced at Qiao Xiaoru, stopped talking, smiled softly, and was quite helpless, but he didn't say anything in the end.

The daughter-in-law persuaded her younger son to say those words, she always felt that it was like that and it was not like that, but she couldn't say what was wrong.

During the meal, Qiao Xiaoru asked casually: "Mother, the eldest aunt came to find her mother, is there something wrong!" ”

Tian thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, it's just a chat!" Your aunt hasn't been back for a long time, we are relatives, and it's normal for her to come and sit down! ”

Qiao Xiaoru "Oh! Then he said nothing.

It's quite normal, I haven't been back for a long time, and I came empty-handed. Anyway, this is the first time my aunt has come to the door after my family moved to a new house, right? I didn't even bring some symbolic gifts, and I was really a relative!

That's not all, Qiao Xiaoru is not covetous of her little things, whether other people's things are given to her own is someone else's business, and if it is not in line with the etiquette of relatives, she does not treat her own family as a relative, Qiao Xiaoru also feels that it doesn't matter! It's just a big deal!

But she was angry with the little bean sprouts like that, and she didn't see the stupid husband, and she still had such an attitude towards herself, which really made Qiao Xiaoru like her.

When she went to bed at night, Qiao Xiaoru deliberately laughed and teased the stupid husband: "Silly, do you like your eldest aunt?" ”

The stupid man shook his head without thinking about it: "I don't like it!" ”

Qiao Xiaoru was happy, "Why! ”

The silly husband raised his eyes to look at her, and grinned: "I like my daughter-in-law!" ”

I'll go! This like is not the same as that like, okay! This stupid thing, really stupid, come to tease her again!

Qiao Xiaoru laughed and scolded and kicked him gently, "Sleep!" He lay down and closed his eyes.

The quilt was slightly heavy, Qiao Xiaoru didn't bother to lift her eyelids, knowing that it was the foolish husband's hand that came up and gently held her posture, and heard the foolish husband Jun say sullenly: "Auntie, she doesn't like her daughter-in-law, I won't like people who don't like daughters-in-law!" ”

Qiao Xiaoru was stunned, and a warmth slowly grew in her heart, the corners of her mouth curled unconsciously, and she was slightly thoughtful: This stupid thing!

Qiao Xiaoru suddenly thought: If one day he is no longer stupid, I don't know what it will be like to himself? Thinking of today's stupid behavior, will he be angry and ashamed?

After breakfast the next day, Qiao Xiaoru and Silly Fujun still went into the mountain. After feeding the chickens, the little bean sprouts also went out to play.

It seems that they are afraid of meeting the eldest aunt and mother and daughter again.

Qiao Xiaoru was lucky today, because it was easier to come back, so he passed by the two or three acres of bamboo mountains in his house, and took a look at these bamboos by the way.

Unexpectedly, I accidentally saw a small spiky winter bamboo shoot emerging from the soil.

Qiao Xiaoru was very happy, and immediately pulled the fool Jun Xingxing to chop a sharp bamboo to carefully dig winter bamboo shoots.

Who knew that there was a bamboo shoot whip about two meters long connected to this underground, and there were almost twenty winter bamboo shoots growing densely on this bamboo shoot whip one by one! It's just that they are still hidden in the ground and have not emerged, only the first one has emerged.
