Dakeng Village is not far from Nanfeng Town. In just a blink of an eye, they arrived at the old house of the Liang family.
Opening the door, Grandma Liang was pulling vegetables in the yard.
Liang Xiaonan shouted: "Grandma."
Grandma Liang turned her face and saw that they were back. She was stunned for a moment, as if she had forgotten the unpleasantness when Liang Xiaonan left, and looked very happy: "You are back? Are you tired?"
Liang Xiaonan saw that she was not thin at all, because she no longer did farm work, her complexion was much better than before, and she could still say hello to them. Was she in a good mood?
"Sister Xiaonan."
A girl of sixteen or seventeen came out of the house and greeted Liang Xiaonan.
Seeing Zhou Yan, the girl's eyes suddenly lit up, her face turned red, and she greeted shyly: "This is Brother Zhou Yan?"
"Who are you?" Liang Xiaonan looked at this girl carefully and had no impression at all. This is the wife Grandma Liang found for Xiaobei?
But what did she do when she saw Zhou Yan was so shy? Those who didn’t know thought she and Zhou Yan were on a blind date!
Liang Xiaonan wanted to kick her.
"Xiaonan, this is Xiaoxiu from your aunt and uncle's house. She has been taking care of me while you were away from home." Grandma Liang introduced happily.
"Oh," Liang Xiaonan responded calmly. She didn't know where Xiaoxiu came from at all. As for who her aunt and uncle were, she had no idea.
"It's from Wei Zhuang, your uncle's and grandma's house." Grandma Liang said, "This is my brother's granddaughter, her name is Wei Dongxiu."
Why not say that she is Xiaoxiu from my uncle's family? Is my uncle the boss in the family?
"Your uncle and grandpa passed away. It's normal that you don't remember. Now that your aunt and uncle are still here, you can drive me back to Weizhuang to visit your aunt and uncle."
Grandma Liang was talking to herself. When Liang Xiaonan's car came back, she could take her sedan back to her parents' home.
Liang Xiaonan said nothing, looking coldly at the people working in the yard, feeling like an outsider, "Is this my home?"
Wei Dongxiu came up to help Liang Xiaonan unload the things on the car, looked at the Hongqi car, and said enviously: "Is this brother Zhou Yan's car?"
Just as Liang Xiaonan was about to nod and say yes, Zhou Yan spoke first: "No."
Wei Dongxiu was stunned for a moment, then immediately said with a smile: "My aunt said that my brother is very capable. You guys have been working hard outside. Come in and rest quickly!"
Watching her wipe the chair again and again and hand it to himself and Zhou Yan, Liang Xiaonan said: "You are a guest. We are going back to our own home, so there is no need to be so polite."
Grandma Liang said proudly: "Xiao Xiu is sensible and capable. During the time she is at home, I don't have to worry about anything. You can see how well organized the house is by her."
"Oh!" Liang Xiaonan didn't even say thank you. The house is still in good order. Grandma sold it to the house and left it bare. She just bought a few new pieces of furniture. What's there to clean up?
I don’t know why Wei Dongxiu is showing up now. Grandma Liang’s brother’s granddaughter is a relative.
By the way, Xiao Hongyu said, "Grandma Liang found a wife for Xiaobei." Where is this wife? It can't be Wei Dongxiu, right?
After looking around but not seeing "Liang Xiaobei's wife", Liang Xiaonan said to Grandma Liang: "I'll go to the fish pond first to have a look."
Before Grandma Liang could speak, Wei Dongxiu said: "Sister, I saw that fish and it's ready to come out of the pond. My aunt said that you used to let others sell the fish. This time we don't need anyone else. My brother and my younger brother will sell it to you."
"
Grandma Liang also said: "Zhou Yan, all your friends have become officials, so they must not care about selling fish anymore."
Zhou Yan didn't say anything, and Liang Xiaonan didn't say anything either. Both of them felt suffocated. Grandma Liang's good attitude toward her came with additional conditions.
Er Gouzi, Ba Sui Mao and Wang Xi are all busy with their own affairs now, and they really don't have time to sell fish, but they want to leave it to the Wei family to sell fish. Has she agreed?
Liang Xiaonan looked at Xiao Xiu and was not polite: "The fish in this pond will be taken from the two restaurants and the county government first. You can sell the rest they take."
"How about that? You have to get the fish first by yourself. You can't buy fish anywhere in the restaurant."
Wei Dongxiu didn't say anything, and Grandma Liang quit.
"Who am I selling to? Why does it have to be sold to an individual? It saves me trouble and effort to sell it to a restaurant at once. Why shouldn't I do it for the same price?"
Liang Xiaonan was so polite to them.
"I'm going to say something ugly up front. No matter who takes the fish, there will be no credit for transactions at the pond." Liang Xiaonan said.
Wei Dongxiu smiled sweetly and said: "Sister Xiaonan, don't worry, you can't take the fish without giving money. We are our own people, sell the fish first, and give you the money immediately after selling the fish, okay?"
"No, I can't break the rules here. This has been the case since the first fish in the pond last year. Even when the county government takes fish, they give money first and then take the fish."
Grandma Liang was very unhappy and said: "Your uncle and aunt's family is not someone else's family. How can my family pay first and then get the fish? I will give them a guarantee. I will get the fish first and then pay."
Are you a guarantee? The brothers have clearly settled the accounts. If the accounts between relatives are not settled, even the relatives will not be able to do it in the end.
"No," Liang Xiaonan just said, "You can't break the rules."
"Rules, are you telling me the rules?" Grandma Liang finally couldn't pretend anymore and said angrily, "I am your grandma, and the rules are that you must be filial to me and you cannot quarrel with me."
Zhou Yan said with a smile: "Grandma, what are you anxious about? Isn't it just selling fish? That's fine! Go ahead and sell it, who is not selling it?!"
Grandma Liang then softened her expression and said angrily: "That's what you said, but it still sounds like you said it."
When the two came out of the house, Zhou Yan smiled a little evilly and said, "You don't have to argue with her. I really want to stop this unhealthy trend. There is a good way."
Fu Er whispered to Liang Xiaonan, who shook his head and said, "I don't have that much patience now. I don't want to play cat and mouse with them. If it doesn't work, I can't. I'm too lazy to waste energy with them."
Regarding this cheap grandma, she now clearly sees that the relationship between them will never get better.
Not far after they came out, they heard a charming voice behind them: "Sister Xiaonan, brother Zhou Yan, I will go to the fish pond with you."
Wei Dongxiu followed.
Liang Xiaonan glanced at her and then noticed that she was quite tall and looked very similar to Liang Dazhuang.
Wei Dongxiu came over, stood on the other side of Zhou Yan, and said affectionately: "Brother Zhou Yan, where have you and your cousin been these days?"
Zhou Yan didn't say anything at all and didn't even look at her. He stuck to Liang Xiaonan and said, "Xiaonan, my eyes are a little itchy. Can you blow it for me?"
He stopped, lowered his head, came close to Liang Xiaonan, and looked into Liang Xiaonan's eyes.
Liang Xiaonan blushed and remembered what he said again, "Look, I only have eyes for you."
Zhou Yan stubbornly asked her to blow it, but Liang Xiaonan had no choice but to hold his face, blow it gently on his eyes, and ask, "Are you okay?"
"Blow it again!" Hey, this is so coquettish.
Liang Xiaonan blew a few more puffs.
Zhou Yan rubbed his eyes, stood up straight, put his arm around her shoulders, and said, "Let's go."
