Chapter 64 Opening the banquet

Qiao Qixin thought about it seriously, "I think she broke down because she lost a supporter and couldn't accept it for a while."

Zhang Li said "Oh~" and said, "That makes sense. Let's go. Since I'm here, I'll accompany my sister to help in the kitchen. We'll have dinner at Lin's house tonight."

"Okay." Qiao Qixin said.

She followed Zhang Li to the back kitchen, where several busy women curiously asked them what happened in front of them.

"It's Lin Yaya. I don't know what happened suddenly..." Zhang Li told the old ladies what had just happened, causing everyone to be shocked.

"I didn't expect that Lin Yaya usually looks pretty, but actually doesn't understand anything at all. She just wants to follow Liang Anting. She can't even handle five children!"

After Mrs. Li finished speaking, she suddenly turned her head back and forth as if remembering something. She saw Qiao Qixin squatting in front of the stove and lighting a fire seriously. It seemed that she didn't hear her, so she felt relieved.

Qiao Qixin was indeed making a fire seriously, but that didn't mean her ears were also on fire.

After all, wherever old ladies are, there must be gossip. No one can regard gossip as nothing, and she is no exception.

I just didn’t expect that the first melon would fall on me.

Zhang Li continued what Mrs. Li said, "Isn't it? My Qixin, who is so capable, has been tortured by those five little kids, let alone Lin Yayana. When Liang Anting goes up the mountain, which child will listen?"

What did she say?"

"Liang Anting has already gone up the mountain. He went up the mountain just after making trouble with Mrs. Lin at noon today." Another Mrs. Wang said, "I just saw him leaving the village carrying a bamboo basket on his back."

"Hey, didn't he just get married to Lin Yaya? Are you going up the mountain now?" Zhang Li said.

"Hunters, those who rely on mountains to make a living, are poor. And Liang Anting can only hunt small animals, so he is naturally poorer." Mrs. Wang said while choosing vegetables.

Qiao Qixin thrust a wooden stick into the stove and echoed, "Yes, Liang Anting can only make ends meet with his skills. With five children, how can there be any inventory!"

"Auntie, you don't know that during the days when Liang Anting was ill, all his family ate was wild vegetable soup!"

Qiao Qixin came forward to speak out and successfully broke into the gossip organization.

"Oh, how poor are you like this?" Mrs. Li was a little surprised, "But didn't he make a lot of money in the past few years?"

"Forget it, Liang Anting is a heartless person who relies on the wild beasts in the mountains for a living without giving them a way to survive."

"He even killed those with cubs. Weren't there a lot of deer in our mountains before? Because of him, very few fawns survived, and the number of deer became less and less."

Qiao Qixin didn't make it up, it was all clearly laid out in the memory of the original owner.

The original owner had previously advised Liang Anting to leave some offspring for them, but Liang Anting refused to listen and slapped her in the face.

"What a sin." Mrs. Li shook her head and said.

After the topic of Liang Anting, the kitchen became even more lively.

Their sister-in-law from the Wang family in the south gave birth to a boy and a girl, and they talked about how the boy from the Zhao family in the north failed to pass the exam.

There are also emotional gossips about who loves whom and who does not love whom.

Qiao Qixin was very happy to hear it, and she also made the mothers-in-law happy by chiming in a few words from time to time.

Until dinner in the evening, several people chatted non-stop at the same table. During this period, the ladies kept giving Qiao Qixin delicious food.

After finishing the meal, Qiao Qixin helped Zhang Li clear the dishes and chopsticks.

Zhang Li nudged Qiao Qixin with her elbow and asked, "Are you ready to get married?"

Qiao Qixin, who was holding the plate, was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

"What? Is it possible that you still have to guard Liang Anting for two years?" Zhang Li said.

"No," Qiao Qixin quickly denied and explained, "I just haven't thought about getting married yet."

"Okay," Zhang Li said with some pity, "Mrs. Li just told me that her cousin's son has a good character and is upright, and asked me if I would like to help you two get married."

"Huh???" Qiao Qixin was shocked, and then decisively declined their kindness.

Please, will marriage shorten your life? Although the love between Zhang Li and Brother Zhang is really sweet, it is impossible to turn her into a blind love brain! She is a very principled person!

After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Qiao Qixin and Zhang Li walked home together.

Just as the two were about to go out, Zhang Li slapped her forehead suddenly and said, "Oops," "I forgot to pack. Qixin, please wait here. Sister will be here in a minute."

"Eh?"

Zhang Li was very fast, and everyone was gone in the blink of an eye.

Qiao Qixin leaned against the wall and looked up and down boredly.

In the mourning hall, Mother Lin's children had finished their dinner and were sitting on chairs with their eyes closed for a while to watch the mourning.

Lin Yaya was not here, so I thought she would forcefully stay.

Qiao Qixin thought.

Lin Yaya, who was washing dishes at Liang's house, suddenly sneezed.

"Qixin! Sister is done, let's go home!" Zhang Li said excitedly, holding four full plates in her hands.

"Let me get you two, sister." Qiao Qixin reached out and took the two plates, sharing half of them for Zhang Li.

Zhang Li was very happy, "Don't worry about breakfast and lunch tomorrow."

The two returned home, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Brother Zhang looking at the two with a sad look on his face.
