Chapter 238 Are these people starving to death reincarnated?
Xu Ronghuan was actually not Xu Jianfeng’s biological child, but the daughter of Cao Qiufeng who had an affair with Wan Zhixuan?
Chef Zhang and the others were in turmoil, and their eyes met with each other:
You can’t tell, Cao Qiufeng is so good at playing, she even gave birth to another man’s child and let Xu Jianfeng support her for twenty-four years!!
Soon, not long after, the whole Wan'an Village knew about the old Xu family!!
Tian Jiayu had just returned home with her child, but she didn't expect that the rumor had already spread to her family.
No wonder the villagers looked at her strangely when she was walking on the road!
Mrs. Song, Tian Jiayu's wife, closed the door and cursed in the yard: "What the hell is Rong Huan's mother doing?
Others will definitely criticize our family in the future!"
It just so happens that the two families are in the same village. Otherwise, it would be fine if they were farther away and couldn't hear the gossip!
I think back then, their Jiayu was one of the most beautiful girls in the village. If it weren't for the twelve taels of bride price given by the Cao family, she would not have agreed to marry Jiayu to the old Xu family.
This is great!
Thinking of the spitting stars in the village that could drown people, Song's intestines turned green with regret.
Mr. Cao looked at Honest Duty, who would have thought that an honest person could do such a thing?
Their family is really unlucky to have such an in-law!
When Madam Song was angry, Madam Lu, Tian Jiayu's sister-in-law, walked out of the house and saw Xu Weining in Madam Song's arms. She then looked at Tian Maimai who was rolling on the ground in the yard, and said in a strange tone:
"Sure enough, when grandma loves her granddaughter, she puts her grandson on the ground and lets her roll around!"
Hearing the sound, Mrs. Song's heart skipped a beat, and when she turned around, she saw Tian Mai who was covered in mud.
She was taking care of Tianmai just now. She hadn't seen Jiayu's two children for a while, so she gave them a hug.
Madam Song quickly put Xu Weining down, went to pick up Tian Mai, and said to Madam Lu:
"You're not stable yet, go and rest quickly, I'll change Mai's clothes!"
Hearing the sound, Mrs. Lu immediately turned around and went back to her room, but when she passed by Tian Jiayu, she glanced at Tian Jiayu and her two children unkindly!
…
There were no empty seats at the eight funeral banquet tables in the evening, but Xu Ronghuan's family was not seen, and no one from the in-laws' Lao Tian family came over.
Everyone has known the whole story for a long time, but they still went to Xu Ronghuan's family and Lao Tian's family with the intention of watching the excitement...
However, the villagers will never say what they are thinking in front of the Old Xu family tonight. After all, they are here to eat at the Old Xu family dinner!
The funeral banquet costing 500 yuan per table was very rich, with twenty-four dishes, including cold dishes, hot grass, chicken, duck, and fish...
Now is the busy time for farming, and everyone is too busy to cook.
In addition, people who don’t usually have holidays or New Years rarely want to eat meat and fish, so if they catch such a good meal, the dishes will be empty as soon as the dishes are served!
When the worker carrying the plates brought the plates back, Chef Zhang couldn't help cursing when he saw them:
"Are these people starving to death and reincarnated as ghosts? They eat so cleanly that they are cleaner than washing!!"
Finally, the funeral banquet was finally dispersed, and Xu Xiangning immediately gave the four-liang knot to Chef Zhang.
Five taels of money for the coffin was also paid, and there was another 20 taels of money for the shroud, which cost a total of eleven taels.
Several people who got the money thanked each other and flattered Xu Xiangning:
"Xiang Ning, the funeral you organized for your father was so honorable.
I'm afraid Lao Xu never imagined that it would be your daughter who arranged the funeral in the end!"
"This battle has not happened in our village for more than ten years."
"Old Xu is still lucky. I wonder what will happen when we die?"
Several people said good things about Xu Xiangning. Xu Xiangning smiled and responded: "I should do these things!"
After finally sending everyone away, only the Cao family, Xu Hengliang and Xu Xiangning, and Lu Fangyi's family were left in the family.
Xu Hengliang looked at Xu Xiangning and said: "Sister, since my father only has two children, my sister and my brother, then you and I will share half of the funeral money.
Although I have no money now, I will definitely pay you back when I make money in the future!"
Xu Hengliang's tone was very serious, but whether he was farming or working, he earned two or three taels of silver a year, and he still had to eat and drink.
What's more, he is not a young man. Once the money is returned to her, no one in this life will be willing to stay single with him for the rest of his life.
"It was not your or my idea to have such a big funeral for dad. There is no need for you to pay for Xu Ronghuan's idea.
According to the custom of our village, it is very honorable to buy a coffin worth three taels, and if you want to return it, you can pay back one, two, five, and you can pay it back at any time."
Xu Xiangning said to Xu Hengliang.
After saying that, Xu Xiangning said to Mrs. Cao: "Mom, we are going back. Dad is gone. You can take good care of yourself in the future.
This is the cloth I pulled for you, you can go back and make yourself new clothes."
Suddenly there was a pile of thick coarse cloth in her hand. Ms. Cao hurriedly declined:
"I don't want it. I have clothes to wear. You can keep them to make clothes for yourself..."
She couldn't even remember how many years it had been since she had made clothes out of new cloth, and the one she was quite good at had two patches on it.
Instantly, Mr. Cao's eyes became moist.
"Just take it. It's rare for me to come back." Xu Xiangning said.
Hearing this, Mrs. Cao's face froze. The last time Xiang Ning came back was four years ago to help harvest wheat.
Later, Xiang Ning also fell down, and she refused to let Rong Huan and Heng Liang pass by, and she did not go over to see her daughter either...
I never thought that Xiang Ning would still miss her now that she was well...
"It's getting dark. You, Fang Yi, and the kids can sleep for the night and go back tomorrow morning!"
Seeing this, Mrs. Cao could only advise Xu Xiangning's family to stay tonight.
"Mom, we can't leave the shop without people, we have to open it normally tomorrow morning.
Moreover, the carriage is very fast, don’t worry!”
Seeing Xu Xiangning's family leaving in a carriage, Mrs. Cao remembered that Xiangning's family had already afforded a carriage and bought a house in the town. They were no longer the same family that lived in the thatched house in Pingle Village.
Suddenly, Ms. Cao looked down at the thick cloth in her hand.
With Xiang Ning's current financial resources, it was more than enough to buy satin, but she only bought coarse cloth for herself!
Immediately, a tear fell from his eye and fell on the pile of coarse cloth.
Mrs. Cao knew that she had hurt Xiang Ning too much, so Xiang Ning only gave her coarse cloth.
Xiang Ning is too kind a child to completely turn a blind eye to her.
This pile of coarse fabrics must have been a decision made by Xiang Ning after a fierce inner struggle!!
