Chapter 86 Lilac
"Is Sister-in-law Liu at home?"
Just as Wei Meili and Widow Chen were chatting happily, a clear shout came from the door.
Suddenly, the eyes of everyone in the courtyard fell on the young woman at the door.
"Hey, Xiao Ding, why do you have time to come here today? Have you finished your work in the fields?"
"There are brothers and sisters-in-law in the field, that's almost it."
Ding Xiang spoke softly and took two steps forward.
When Meiberry looked up at the other party, she saw disgust flashing in her eyes the moment she saw her mother, which made Meiberry couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"Who is this?"
Pulling the lock, Meiberry asked in a low voice.
"The third daughter-in-law of Mr. Wu's family, I call her third aunt."
"Oh, I won't shout."
Lock:"……"
Mei Bei asked in a low voice about the visitor. Over there, Widow Chen smiled when she saw the other person coming over and asked her to come over and talk.
Apparently he was someone who knew Widow Chen and had a good conversation with her.
"Sister-in-law, you have a guest here~"
Ding Xiang glanced at Wei Meili, who narrowed her eyes. She always felt that the person in front of her didn't seem to like her.
The original person seems to have some impression of this person in his memory, but not much, and there is no interaction with him.
Widow Chen looked at the two people standing there, looking at each other without saying anything. The atmosphere was so anxious that Widow Chen looked at the two people at a loss.
What's going on with these two people?
"It turns out that she is the third daughter-in-law of Uncle Wu's family... Look at me, I haven't seen her for a long time and I almost forgot about her."
Suddenly, Wei Meili put on a big smile to preemptively strike, took Ding Xiang's hand and spoke in a longer tone, "I remember your name is Ding Xiang, right? You just got married the year before last year?"
"Yes, I have only been married for a short time, and I am not familiar with some of my sisters-in-law..."
Ding Xiang looked at Wei Meili with a smile, withdrew her hand calmly, turned to Widow Chen, and asked, "Sister-in-law of the Liu family, this is..."
"Oh, Xiao Ding, you don't know her yet, right? She belongs to Mei Erniu's family at the entrance of the village. You can just call her Erniu sister-in-law."
Thinking that Ding Xiang was unfamiliar with Wei Meimei and was acting so rude, Widow Chen quickly introduced the two of them to each other.
Wei Meiliang became even more puzzled when she heard that the father-in-law of this young woman named Dingxiang was Wu Laosan and Wu Youbing, who was also the brother of the village chief Wu Youcai.
Not only was she puzzled, Mayberry was also confused.
"When did our family offend them?"
Meiberry naturally heard Widow Chen's introduction, and after learning the origin of Lilac, she murmured something in a low voice.
What is the meaning of the inexplicable hostility in this woman?
"What did you say?"
Suo Tou listened to Mei Berry's unclear muttering and turned to look at Mei Berry.
"Ah, it's nothing. Well...your mother has a good relationship with this person?"
"It's good. We live close to each other and my third aunt often comes over to talk to my mother."
"Oh~"
Meiberry said nothing more and turned her gaze to the three people not far away who could just set up a stage and join them together, and she wanted to eat more.
"Xiao Ding, did you come here to ask me for anything at this time?"
After Widow Chen introduced the two of them to each other, the two smiled at each other and stopped talking. The situation was quite awkward.
But in the end, the two of them were not embarrassed at all, but Widow Chen was the most embarrassed.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say, so she could only ask Ding Xiang what she was doing here.
"Ah, my mother-in-law said that there are no onions in the vegetable patch at home, so she asked me to find you, sister-in-law..."
"Hey, just take the green onions and lock the head——"
Widow Chen shouted and stood with Mei Mei.
Suo Tou answered and heard his mother say: "Take your third aunt to our vegetable field to get some onions."
"good--"
Mei Berry saw Lock running away, Ding Xiang thanked Widow Chen and left.
When Mayberry walked up to her mother again, the playful smile on her mother's face seemed to have discovered something funny.
"Does she often come to your house to pull onions at this time?"
Hearing Wei Meili's question, Widow Chen shook her head repeatedly: "What did my sister-in-law say? I only occasionally pull onions. Xiao Ding often comes to play with me at this time."
But I haven’t been here for a few days recently, maybe because there are a lot of things going on in the field recently.”
"Oh, like this, I often come to see you at this time..."
Wei Meili repeated Widow Chen's words, smiled, pulled Meiberry over, and said to her, "Then we have agreed on this cloth. I will come and get it in five days. At this time, everyone is working, so I
I won’t bother you anymore.”
"Hey, sister-in-law, walk slowly. When the cloth is ready in a few days, I'll have the lock delivered to you."
After being sent out by the enthusiastic Widow Chen, Meiberry couldn't help but ask her mother after walking for a long time: "What kind of grudge does Dingxiang have against us? I saw her look at you when she looked at my mother earlier.
It couldn’t be better!”
"I don't know, I'm really not familiar with her. A few years ago, when she first got married, I occasionally met her outside and didn't have time to talk to offend her."
Wei Meili shook her head, indicating that she was also confused about Ding Xiang's inexplicable hostility towards their family.
"Although I don't know how we offended her, she is quite interesting to me~"
"interesting?"
Meiberry showed a pair of beady eyes, and she didn't understand what her mother found so interesting about Lilac.
"What time do you think it is now?"
"afternoon."
"more specific."
"Afternoon..." Just when Mayberry wasn't sure what to answer, she happened to see someone leaving home with a hoe out of the corner of her eye, "While working?"
"Yes! When I'm working, it's probably two hours before dinner."
"Yeah." Mei Bei nodded, suddenly realizing, "Oh! Now she said she would pick onions and go home to cook!"
"Yeah~ I just asked Widow Chen if she often came here at this time. According to Widow Chen, didn't she mean that she often came here at this time before?
When she was working, she went to other people's homes. That is to say, Widow Chen had to stay at home to look after her mother-in-law, so she was always at home in the afternoon. She could tolerate Ding Xiang coming over to talk. In a normal house, at this point in the past two days, she was afraid that no one would knock on the door.
It should be."
"Mom, do you mean that she likes to be lazy?" Mei Berry also felt this after listening to her mother's analysis.
It's cryptic enough.
This feels like a higher rank than her eldest sister Mei Lian.
But thinking about Mei Lian, when Mei Lian was in the village some time ago, Mei Berry really didn't realize how capable she was.
There is a sense that if you don’t offend me, I won’t offend you.
Now that she felt the vague hostility of Big Green Tea when she first appeared, Meiberry couldn't help but take a breath.
[System, you said that if I "introduce" Lilac to the heroine, will there be a highlight scene of the heroine punishing Green Tea later? 】
System: [Host, I advise you not to have such dangerous thoughts. 】
【Eh?】Mei Berry is curious. In the past, didn’t the system also encourage her to create some famous scenes?
[To be honest, you are more discerning than anyone else.]
Mayberry:???
What do you mean by this?
The red sleeve ticket data cannot be accessed through the backend, and the number of tickets will probably change a lot in the future (I shamelessly guessed, hahaha).
If the calculation doesn't work by then, I will just write everyone's names together and thank you for the total number of votes.
Chapter completed!
