Chapter 17 Tang Dongdong

There was no need to shut up Zhuzhu to talk. Tian Sanya, who had come to his senses, had already rushed to Jin Feng and said with a smile:

"I was so blind just now that I didn't recognize my uncle as a tiger-fighting hero. Don't be as knowledgeable as me."

After saying that, he slapped himself on the face: "This slap is to compensate you, right?"

This slap did not release any water, and five finger prints appeared directly on his face.

But none of the surrounding villagers laughed at Tian Sanya.

They are all hungry and scared. If they have an uncle who is a hero in fighting tigers, they can just kowtow.

"No need to apologize to me, it was Xiaorou you just scolded!"

Jin Feng said coldly.

"Xiaorou, I was wrong."

Tian Sanya turned to Guan Xiaorou and slapped her face again: "Xiaorou, it was my sister-in-law who was wrong before. I am not a human being and should not bully you, but you also know what our family is like..."

Guan Xiaorou was soft-hearted after all, and she knew the situation at home in the past, so Tian Sanya coaxed her down with a few soft words.

After all, she is Guan Xiaorou's mother-in-law. If she wants to forgive, she can forgive her. It is not a big deal. The big deal is that she will have less contact with her in the future.

Jin Feng didn't bother to listen to Tian Sanya's complaints, nor did he bother to talk to his uncle who came to talk to him. He squatted to the side to study the spinning wheel.

The neighbors found that there was no excitement to see, so they went back to work one by one.

"Master, I made an agreement with my sister-in-law that we can take this spinning wheel with us when we leave."

Guan Xiaorou finally got rid of Tian Sanya and squatted next to Jin Feng.

"Are you really going to spin yarn for me to study?"

Jin Feng joked with a smile.

The skin all over Guan Xiaorou's body was tender and tender, except that her hands were covered with calluses, left over from spinning.

"I know you are capable as the head of the family, and I don't need to make money at home, but besides spinning, I don't know what I can do. I can't just sit around all the time, right?"

Guan Xiaorou lowered her head and said.

"It's okay to spin, but this spinning wheel is almost falling apart, so don't move it home. I'll make you a better one later."

A doctorate in engineering is not free of charge. The mechanical structure of the spinning wheel in ancient times was very simple. Jin Feng could understand it in just a few glances. If he went back and made some modifications, the efficiency would definitely be doubled.

"As a master, can you still make a spinning wheel?"

Guan Xiaorou said in surprise.

"I know a lot of things."

Jin Feng said stinkingly.

"Master, let's go for a walk. I'll take you to meet someone."

Guan Xiaorou pulled Jin Feng up.

"Who are you meeting?"

"My best friend," Guan Xiaorou said: "Everyone used to say that I was a disaster star. Everyone avoided me. Only Dongdong didn't dislike me and always helped me with my work."

"Then we have to meet."

The two walked out of the courtyard, turned around a bamboo forest, and saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old hoeing the ground.

The girl is a little taller than Guan Xiaorou and good-looking, but a little too thin.

Jin Feng always felt that something was wrong with this girl, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

"Master, doesn't Dongdong look good-looking?"

Guan Xiaorou asked with a smile.

"It's indeed pretty, just a little bit worse than my Xiaorou."

"Then how about you take Dongdong back as your concubine?"

"Why are you here again?"

Although he is a science student, he still needs to have the desire to survive: "There are so many beautiful women in the world. Do you think you have to marry one when you see one? Can our family afford it? I will marry you. That's enough."

"Mr. Dongdong is not only beautiful, but also good at reading and arithmetic."

"Can you read and do math?"

Jin Feng was stunned.

These days, very few men can read, let alone women, less than one in a thousand.

"Dongdong used to be the eldest lady in the city. Later, something happened to her family and she came to Guanjiawan to seek refuge with her fifth grandma."

Guan Xiaorou said: "My fifth grandmother didn't let her work in the past. She could only learn to spin from me. How can she work now?"

"No wonder."

Jin Feng finally understood why he felt something was wrong just now.

The girl's posture when working was very awkward, and she looked like she had never been on the ground before.

Tang Dongdong is a migrant and has few friends in Guanjiawan, so he is very happy to see Guan Xiaorou.

The two of them ran to the side with their heads together and whispered. Jin Feng was too embarrassed to interfere, so he could only run to the side and think about how to improve the spinning wheel.

"Dongdong, why did Fifth Grandma ask you to work in the fields?"

"The jewelry I brought from home has been sold out, and I won't have enough to pay taxes next time. I just want to reclaim some wasteland to see if I can make more money to avoid being caught and sent to the marriage team."

Tang Dongdong said helplessly.

"Dongdong, you don't need to join the wedding party. There are many young men in Guanjiawan who want to marry you."

"The men in Guanjiawan are as stupid as pigs and like to beat their wives. Even if I die, I will not marry them."

"How about you marry my boss? He never hits anyone and is very kind to me..."

Guan Xiaorou praised Jin Feng again.

"Xiaorou, you are so stupid. No matter how good he is to you, you cannot just find a concubine for him, otherwise you will suffer a loss."

Taking concubines is a very common phenomenon in Dakang. Tang Dongdong didn't feel offended, but he nodded at Guan Xiaorou's forehead.

"I wouldn't be happy with anyone else, but it would be great if you got married and we can be sisters again. If you are willing, I will go and ask the head of the family."

"Xiaorou, I know you are doing it for my own good, but you are afraid that I will be upset and upset. Don't worry, I won't."

Tang Dongdong held Guan Xiaorou's hand: "I want to try it myself. If I really can't survive, I will go to you."

"Then it's settled."

"Um."



After lunch, although Tian Sanya repeatedly promised that she would never bully Guan Xiao'e in the future, Guan Xiaorou was still a little worried. After discussing with Jin Feng, she decided to take Guan Xiao'e home to raise her for a while.

When they arrived, everyone avoided Guan Xiao'e, but when they left, everyone came over to say hello with a smile.

After living for almost twenty years, this is the happiest day for Guan Xiaorou.

"Brother-in-law, is this Xihewan?"

Guan Xiao'e lay on Jin Feng's back: "Does it look like our Guanjiawan?"

The poor little girl has only been out of the village once in her life and is curious about everything she sees.

"Our two villages are only a few miles apart, so of course they are the same."

"Brother-in-law, can I still eat rice at your house? The rice at lunch is so delicious!"

"Of course, not only is there rice, we can also make pancakes and steamed buns. Whatever you want to eat, just ask my sister to make it for you."

"Wow, that's great. I want to go to my brother-in-law's house quickly."

In Guan Xiao'e's mind, this is already the best day.

"Don't worry, just turn a corner and you'll reach my house."

Jin Feng smiled and said, "Hey, why are there so many people?"

In the small courtyard, there were twenty or thirty people standing, chattering without knowing what they were talking about.

"Jin Feng, Xiaorou, you are finally back!"

Lin Yunfang came up to him and said, "Your house has been robbed. Go in and see what's missing."
