Chapter 252: Going to Yak Horns Again
Kang Zhentao followed Mr. Huang to Xideng, and Kang Jing went to the Yangko team to practice Yangko. The house suddenly became quiet. It was rare for the couple to be quiet. They sat together and talked about the ups and downs of the year, with a lot of emotions.
"I've gone through so much this year, but luckily everything turned out to be good. I've been stumbling over it, but there's only one thing that still needs to be solved!" Xiao Lan said, looking at Tiger Lao Qi.
"You must be talking about fourth brother, right?" Hu Laoqi and Xiaolan had a clear understanding.
Xiaolan nodded and said, "I think we should go see Fourth Brother before the end of the year!"
"I want to take a look too, but his old mother-in-law is so annoying!" Hu Laoqi felt a headache when he thought about meeting the unreasonable Zhang Qiaozhen when he went to hunt for cattle.
"No matter how annoying it is, you have to face it sooner or later! I think it's better sooner rather than later. Let's go to Changfeng tomorrow!" Xiaolan was thinking about Zhao Laosi.
Hu Laoqi also kept thinking about his fourth brother, so he nodded repeatedly.
Early the next morning, Hu Laoqi drove the carriage borrowed from the production team to the door of his house. Kang Jing helped Xiaolan load things into the car.
"Why did you take so much food? Our family can't handle it?" Hu Laoqi looked at the food in the car and got confused.
"My fourth brother earns these grains from his work points. He lives in the woman's house. Don't let people look down on you. Let's save our money and we can get through it anyway!" Xiaolan said.
"Look at my apprentice's big heart, are you convinced?" Queen Mother Du said, neatly dressed.
"Looking at you like this, are you planning to go with us?" Hu Laoqi asked.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? The whole family has gone, why shouldn't I go? Stop nagging and take me to the car!" Queen Mother Du stretched out her arms.
"It's such a cold day that you can't enjoy yourself at home, why are you messing around?" Tiger Lao Qi muttered in his mouth, while carrying Queen Mother Du to the carriage.
"Do you think I'm going with you? If Xiaolan doesn't go, I won't hesitate to go with you!" Queen Mother Du said back.
In this way, the four people, big and small, set off towards Ganniujiao amidst the shouts of Hu Laoqi driving the carriage.
When the carriage was halfway along, the weather suddenly changed. The originally sunny sky quickly became overcast, and soon it began to snow heavily. Snowflakes were flying all over the sky, and everything was silvery white. The ruts left by the carriage were soon covered by heavy snow.
, without a trace.
Originally we planned to arrive at Ganniujiao around noon, but due to heavy snowfall, the carriage did not arrive at Ganniujiao until after two o'clock in the afternoon.
Arriving at the door of Zhao Laosi's house, Xiaolan immediately saw Zhao Laosi chopping wood against the snow.
Zhao Laosi was wearing a flowered cotton jacket and a torn cotton hat, and was swinging an ax vigorously with his bare hands. There was thick snow on his cotton hat, and you could tell that he had been working for a long time.
Seeing Zhao Laosi's slightly forlorn look, Xiaolan felt sad and shed tears. She climbed out of the carriage and walked into the yard, choking and shouting: "Fourth brother..."
Zhao Laosi lowered his head to chop wood and was thinking about something. He didn't know that Xiaolan was already standing in front of him. When he heard Xiaolan's voice, he couldn't help but feel shocked and subconsciously raised his head.
"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law...sister-in-law!" Zhao Laosi screamed, and the ax fell to the ground.
"You're already married. Stop calling me sister-in-law. It's a joke!" Xiaolan looked at Zhao Laosi with tears in her eyes, feeling sad in her heart.
"Why are you here?" Zhao Laosi calmed down his inner excitement and looked around as he spoke.
Of course, when Zhao Laosi saw Queen Mother Du and Xiaosong in his arms, he could no longer control his emotions, tears wet his eyes, and he ran towards the carriage.
Zhao Laosi ran to Queen Mother Du, knelt down on the ground, and said with a choked voice: "Old fairy, are you doing well?"
"I'm fine. Come on, kid!" Queen Mother Du stretched out her hand to pull Zhao Laosi up.
"You took good care of my illness, but I failed to honor you. You came to see me specially, and I have no place to show my face!" Zhao Laosi felt guilty in his heart.
"Everything is fate, everything is fruit. Your recovery from illness is all due to your own good fortune! Get up quickly, I'm going to freeze to death, why don't you let us go inside?" Queen Mother Du said.
Zhao Laosi stood up, took the child from Queen Mother Du, looked at Xiaosong himself, and said with emotion: "This child has grown so big in the blink of an eye, the longer he grows, the more beautiful he is!"
Xiao Song stared at his big watery eyes, not recognizing life at all. He looked at Zhao Laosi curiously and made a "woo woo woo" sound in his mouth.
"Fourth brother!" Hu Laoqi shouted.
Zhao Laosi ignored Hu Laoqi and led Queen Mother Du towards the yard.
"Mom, Dahu, we have a guest at home!" Zhao Laosi shouted loudly as he walked.
The door of the house opened, and Dahu ran out in a floral cotton-padded jacket, followed shortly by Zhang Qiaozhen.
"This is my benefactor, please call me Lao Shenxian!" Zhao Laosi introduced Queen Mother Du to Dahu.
"Old Immortal!" Dahu shouted simply.
"This is sister-in-law!" Zhao Laosi introduced Xiaolan.
"Sister-in-law!" Dahu said without any shyness.
"Stop calling me sister-in-law! Just call me Xiaolan. I should call you sister-in-law!" Xiaolan quickly corrected her.
"Xiaolan!" Dahu changed his words readily.
"Don't call her Xiaolan, just sister-in-law!" Zhao Laosi corrected stubbornly.
"Xiaolan... um... sister-in-law... um... sister-in-law Xiaolan!" Dahu was a little confused.
Everyone was introducing each other lively, while Zhang Qiaozhen looked on coldly. When she saw that Queen Mother Du and Xiaolan were both short, she couldn't help but show contempt on her face. She was about to say something sarcastic, but she saw Tiger Lao Qi making big and small bundles.
He moved things into the courtyard and immediately swallowed the words that came to his lips.
"Fourth Brother, stop gesticulating and move things down quickly!" Zhang Qiaozhen shouted to Zhao Laosi.
Zhao Laosi looked at Hu Laoqi and hesitated for a moment without moving.
"Auntie, these are cotton gloves I made specially for you. Can you try them on and see if they fit?" Xiaolan took out a pair of cotton gloves from her personal bag and handed them to Zhang Qiaozhen.
"It's so beautiful!" Dahu suddenly took over the cotton gloves and began to put them on Zhao Laosi's hands.
"You've never seen a disgraceful thing like a torn glove? Fourth child, did you hear what I said?" Zhang Qiaozhen's words were very hurtful as soon as they came out.
"I made three pairs of gloves, everyone has a share!" Xiaolan quickly smoothed things over, taking out the gloves as she spoke.
"Mom, let everyone go inside and warm up first!" Zhao Laosi still didn't move.
"Why is there so much nonsense? Hurry up and finish moving the things first!" Zhang Qiaozhen had no intention of letting everyone into the house.
"Mom, let everyone go inside and warm up first!" Zhao Laosi said firmly.
"You're a beggar. If it weren't for us, you would have died a long time ago. Now you're relying on someone from home, and you're starting to fight with me! I think you just deserve a beating!" Zhang Qiaozhen didn't give Zhao Laosi any face, and found out
A wooden stick was used to hit Zhao Laosi on the head.
Dahu glanced at Zhang Qiaozhen in fear, and hugged Zhao Laosi's waist, wanting to take the stick for Zhao Laosi.
