Because Xia Ju was staying at the elder's house in Luo Village, the Xia family suddenly lost a labor force, which made the Xia family, who had been enjoying a good life for more than ten years, not used to it.
On weekdays, she can have hot meals as long as she gets up.
If the food didn't taste good or was cold, she would scold Xia Ju.
And today.
That stinky girl Xia Ju went to the village chief's house, and suddenly no one made breakfast.
Her son Xia Song had to go to private school again and was hungry. He wanted to eat, so Xia had no choice but to cook it herself.
Just because she hadn't cooked for too long, the food she cooked was terrible.
The porridge you cooked turned into rice.
Stir-fried vegetables are either burnt or too salty and bland.
Therefore, Xia Song made a fuss about not going to a private school, and it was Xia who was willing to talk things over.
Finally, he secretly stuffed Xia Song with a tael of silver, and then Xia Song was willing to go to private school.
After that, the pigs raised at home had to be fed, and a pile of clothes had to be washed by the river, not to mention cleaning the house.
"Are you a girl willing to come back?"
Xia, who was already angry, became even more angry for no reason when she saw Xia Taohua who had returned.
Before, she would have looked so pleased with her little daughter.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt that this little daughter was not a worry-free person either.
"Mom, I didn't go anywhere, I just walked around the village with Xiaozhu and the others!"
Xia Taohua's face didn't look very good.
If you look closely, you will find that Xia Taohua's hair is messy and a little sticky, and even her clothes are stained with white stains.
"Stop associating with those worthless people from now on!"
Xia still looks down upon the people in the village.
After all, her family supports a scholar, who is very different from those mud-legged people who cannot read a single word.
"knew!"
Xia Taohua answered casually.
"Then go and take the laundry at home to the river to wash. Your brother will have to wear some of the clothes tomorrow!"
Xia waved her hand and urged.
"Ha, why do you want me to wash it? I haven't washed my clothes before!"
Xia Taohua was startled for a moment and said unconvinced: "My sister is in the village, you can ask her to wash it!"
"You think I don't want to? I just went to the village chief's house. That girl went shopping with the village chief's wife. I don't know when she will come back!"
Mr. Xia was not in a good mood.
"Mom, how about we buy a maid? That way, mom, you can relax a lot and don't have to do anything!" Xia Taohua suggested with a flash of envy in her eyes.
"I don't need any maid, so why don't I pay for it?" Xia said angrily.
"Didn't the Li family give a bride price last time?"
Xia Taohua knew that the Li family gave a large sum of money to her family.
"You girl, don't even think about it. That money is going to be used for your brother's education!"
Mr. Xia immediately interrupted Xia Taohua's thoughts and waved her hand: "Stop talking so much, go and take the clothes to the river to wash. After washing, I will cut some pig grass to feed the pigs. I want to go back to the house and take a rest!"
Without waiting for Xia Taohua's reaction, Xia turned around and went back to the house to sleep.
Xia Taohua was extremely depressed.
She has never washed clothes, let alone fed pigs.
The thought of that stinking place made her want to vomit.
"Sure enough, mother likes my brother!"
Xia Taohua's eyes were filled with hatred, "When I get married to Nomo Town, if you ask me anything, I won't care whether you live or die!"
"Chirp!"
But at this moment, a bird flew across the sky.
An unknown object fell directly on top of Xia Taohua's head from the sky.
"damn it!"
Xia Taohua stretched out her hand and wiped it on her head, and found another nasty bird droppings.
I don't know what happened.
Ever since she separated from the two little girls riding giant toads, bird droppings always fell on her head.
Once or twice can be said to be a coincidence.
But several times in a row.
As a result, she could no longer stay in Nomo Town, so she had to come back in despair.
But on the way back, she was often hit by bird droppings, which made Xia Taohua feel aggrieved.
"Damn it, it must be that ugly monster who made me so unlucky!!!"
Xia Taohua turned pale with anger.
She felt that Xia Ju must have harmed her.
Ever since Xia Ju got lucky and was chosen by someone from Nomo Town, she has never had a happy day.
…
The mayor's house.
Bu Fan leaned on the bamboo chair.
Although he was reading a book in his hands, he was actually checking his friends’ messages.
Look what happened to his friends recently.
However, my friend messages seem a bit monotonous recently.
Han Gang was not hunted down.
Qi Shi is also mediocre.
Even the disciples surprisingly didn't encounter anything.
Is this the calm before the storm?
certainly.
A certain swordsman is still swinging his sword.
A certain little lolita is still preaching there.
This hasn't changed.
"Mayor, are you at home?"
Suddenly, a strong voice came.
Bu Fan raised his eyes and took a look.
At this moment, Li Datou, his wife, his son, and his daughter-in-law were standing outside the yard, carrying many things in their hands.
"Uncle Wu, why are you here? Come in and sit down!"
Bu Fan's eyes lit up, knowing that the mission was coming, and he immediately stood up to greet him enthusiastically.
"Hungry, hungry, hungry!"
And at this moment, a scream suddenly came.
Li Datou and his family all looked at Bu Fan with strange and confused expressions.
"Don't be surprised. Killing the donkey in the backyard is not right. It was my little girl bathing the donkey!" Bu Fan coughed a few times and explained.
Li Datou's family suddenly realized that no wonder the screams were so permeable.
"No wonder the little white donkey in the mayor's house has such white hair. I guess it's Xiao Man who always bathes the little white donkey!" Li Datou said with a smile to smooth things over.
"That's about it. Let's go inside and talk!"
Bu Fan coughed lightly and invited Li Datou and his family into the main room.
"You guys sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen and make some tea!" Bu Fan stood up and was about to go out.
"No need to trouble the mayor, we can just drink some water, and we can go back after saying something!" Li Datou hurriedly stopped him.
"That's it, that's good!"
Bu Fan picked up the kettle on the table, poured a glass of water for Li Datou and his family, and then exchanged pleasantries with Li Datou and his family.
"Huairen, how is business lately?"
Li Datou's son is called Li Huairen.
At that time, a private school was opened in the village, and Li Huairen also studied in the private school for a period of time. However, Li Huairen did not take the imperial examination route, but the business route.
Now Li Huairen also has several shops outside.
"It's not bad. I rely on Dean Zhou for many transactions on weekdays!"
Li Huairen looks somewhat similar to Li Datou, and he also seems to be loyal and honest.
"That's good!"
Bu Fan nodded, then asked about the matter again before getting to the point.
"I wonder, Fifth Uncle, why did you come to see me?"
Although Bu Fan had already guessed the purpose of Li Datou's family's visit, he still had to ask politely.
