Time flies and it's time for vacation again. On Friday, before the evening self-study, Yan Chen specially came to see Xiang Jin and asked, "Are you going back tomorrow?"
"Go back?!" Xiang Jin replied without thinking. She had to go back and say thank you to Grandpa Zeng and Grandma Mo.
Yan Chen smiled, "Okay, then I'll be waiting for you at the school gate!"
"good!"
After the last class ended at noon the next day, Xiang Jin went directly to the school gate as usual. Yan Chen saw her coming out so quickly and asked, "Didn't you go back?"
Xiang Jin said, "No, my grandparents knew that I was going back today, so they asked me to go back with you directly after school. There was no need to go back to say hello to them. This would save some time.
The sun is too strong and it will be too hot on the way back."
Yan Chen nodded, and Yan Fei urged, "Then let's leave quickly. What are we waiting for? If we don't leave, we won't be able to sit down later!"
So the three of them got on the bus together, and then each found a good seat to sit down. Then Yan Fei turned to them and said, "Hey, why don't you go directly to my house later? I will
Will we take you to our fields to pick some lotus pods and dig some young lotus roots to eat?"
Xiang Jin was a little moved, and then looked at Yan Chen, but Yan Chen refused directly, "It's too hot, so I won't go. Why don't you prepare some early tomorrow, and then we can bring them to school to eat."
Yan Fei thought for a while and then nodded, "Okay! Then Xiang Jin, I will bring some for your grandparents and the others. You can go to our house to pick it up tomorrow morning. I will give you two more."
My uncle, my second aunt, they brought some, I'm afraid I won't be able to take so much by then."
Xiang Jin nodded, "That's no problem!"
Then Yan Fei asked again, "When you get to town later, are you going to find a place to eat directly, or are you going home directly? If you go home directly, it will be very late by then, and we will definitely
My stomach was growling with hunger."
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen glanced at each other, and then there was a hint of smile in their eyes, and then Yan Chen said, "When we get to town, I'll treat you to rice noodles with pickled vegetables, tofu, fish!"
"Okay!" Yan Fei immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes.
After they arrived in the town, they went straight to Aunt Xiaoping's restaurant. After having a delicious meal of pickled cabbage, tofu, fish and rice noodles, Xiang Jin suggested to Yan Chen, "How about we go to the vegetable market?"
Bring some food back, and take a taxi back later?"
Yan Chen said, "Maybe grandpa and grandma are prepared."
Xiang Jin pulled him over there and said, "Oh, it's okay. There is a refrigerator at home anyway. Let's go, let's go!"
Yan Fei looked at the two of them and said, "Then I'll go with you." He also went to buy some food for his family and went back to show his filial piety.
So the three young people went to the vegetable market together.
Xiang Jin took Yan Chen to a place that sold pork, where she first chose a good piece of pork, and then bought a pair of pig ears and several pieces of ribs. She only asked the boss to give them the ribs.
Cut it in the middle, and then she tilted her head and looked at Yan Chen and said, "I'll make this into a cold sauce later, or I'll marinate it later. Grandpa Zeng likes to eat it."
"Okay," Yan Chen took out the money to pay.
When Yan Fei saw it, he also bought a piece of meat there.
Xiang Jin then took him to the place where chickens and ducks were sold, "Do you want to kill a chicken or buy a duck?"
Yan Chen asked, "Ducks use asphalt to remove their feathers, right?"
Xiang Jin said, "Then buy a chicken! Boss, kill a chicken for us now. Remember to pick a good one, a fat one, a energetic one, not a sickly one."
The boss said, "Don't worry, little girl, the chickens and ducks here are all alive and well!"
Xiang Jin nodded, and after a while, the boss showed her the selected chicken, "Look, is it fresh? Is it energetic? Is it fat?"
Xiang Jin looked at it and nodded, "Okay, let's take this one!"
The boss went to the scale, and then told him how many pounds, how much, and how much. Yan Chen paid, but Xiang Jin refused, "I'll do it this time!"
"Okay, come on," Yan Chen collected the money obediently.
Xiang Jin paid the money to the proprietress in change, and the boss went to kill the chicken.
Yan Fei hesitated and asked, "Should I also buy a chicken and go back?"
Xiang Jin took the change from the landlady and said, "It's up to you. If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't want to buy it, don't buy it!"
Yan Fei gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, boss lady, you can also choose one for me!"
The landlady laughed so hard she said, "Okay, how many pounds do you want?"
Yan Fei asked Xiang Jin how much the one they had just weighed, and the landlady said how much it was. Then Yan Fei said, "Okay, give me one that's a little smaller than theirs."
"OK!"
Then they waited there. At this time, Xiang Jin and his chickens were already losing their feathers, and then Xiang Jin looked around at the entire vegetable market to see what else was being sold.
Suddenly she said to Yan Chen, "You wait here, I'll go over there."
Yan Chen saw that the direction of her finger was the place where fish was sold, so he said, "It's not convenient to get the fish, so why don't you buy it?"
Xiang Jin waved his hand, "It's okay, I'll go take a look," and ran towards them.
After a while, Xiang Jin ran back and said to Yan Chen, "The boss said he could put some water in the bag for us and then fill the bag with some air, so that the fish can still be alive when we take it back."
Yes, let’s buy one and make boiled fish fillet for Grandpa Zeng to eat?”
Yan Chen thought for a moment and agreed, "Okay, I'll get it later!"
"Okay," Xiang Jin looked at Yan Fei, "Do you want to eat fish at home? I'll bring one for you, too?"
Yan Fei shook his head, "Forget it about our family, the fish cooked by our family is not very tasty."
Xiang Jin nodded and went over there to pick fish alone.
Xiang Jin and the others bought meat, chicken, and fish, and finally bought some pieces of dried tofu. Yan Fei followed them and bought things for everyone, "Hey, why do you only buy meat but not vegetables?"
Xiang Jin asked, "Because we have food at home?"
Yan Fei directly handed a bag of vegetables to Xiang Jin, "Then hold it for me!"
Xiang Jin's eyes flashed, "Isn't this the season for producing cucumbers and loofahs? Why did you even buy this? Your family doesn't grow any?"
"Ah?" Yan Fei immediately looked like he had been deceived, "Why didn't you remind me, so you wasted your money?"
Yan Chen said, "First of all, how can we remind you if you are not with us? Secondly, you grew up in a rural area and don't know what vegetables are produced in each season?"
Yan Fei muttered, "I don't usually farm, how do I know what vegetables grow in this season?"
Xiang Jin marveled and said, "Are you really indifferent to your limbs and grains?"
Yan Fei looked at them and said, "Then can I go and get rid of these cucumbers and loofahs?"
The two of them looked at him as if he were a fool. Xiang Jin just laughed, and then said with disdain, "Why don't you try it and see if the old aunt who buys vegetables can use this?"
Cucumber and loofah?"
Yan Fei immediately shook his head, "Then I'd better forget it!"
"Oh, forget it, I'd better get some for you," Xiang Jin said and pulled the vegetable bag directly from his hand.
Then a few people went outside to take a taxi. You don't need to use the cars above to take a taxi. You can get one at the entrance of the vegetable market.
They called a total of three motorcycles, one for Yan Fei, and Xiang Jin was about to get on the other one, but was stopped by Yan Chen. Instead, he asked the two motorcycle riders to ride on one.
He and Xiang Jin took one, and after arriving at the terminal, they rode their own motorcycles.
Seeing him arranging it like this, the two motorcycle masters looked at Xiang Jin with puzzled expressions. Xiang Jin also looked at Yan Chen with some doubts, "Are you sure you can drive a motorcycle? We won't be thrown down later."
Come down?"
Yan Chen glanced at her angrily, "Please believe me, I learned to drive a motorcycle half a year earlier than I learned to drive a car, and I often rode a motorcycle when I was in the provincial capital."
"Oh, okay!" Xiang Jin felt relieved now.
The two motorcycle masters also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then helped them hang the vegetables they bought on the motorcycle.
"Yan Fei, your food," Xiang Jin reached out and handed Yan Fei's bag of food to him.
"Oh, I almost forgot," Yan Fei reached out to take it, and then hung it on the two motorcycles he had driven.
Yan Chen took the lead and sat on the motorcycle, followed by Xiang Jin, and then whispered in his ear, "Actually, we can just take a motorcycle like before."
Yan Chen said, "It's too hot for three people to ride on a motorcycle."
Xiang Jin thought about it and said, "Okay!"
"Sit down?" he asked her, tilting his head.
"Well, okay!" Xiang Jin nodded.
"Hold me tight, do I want to start the car?" Then he greeted her again.
Xiang Jin's hands directly wrapped around his lean waist.
With a "boom", the motorcycle Xiang Jin and his friends were riding on took off.
"Drive slower?" Xiang Jin whispered in his ear.
"I know, don't worry!"
In about twenty minutes, Yan Chen drove his motorcycle into their yard. Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng hurriedly walked out of the house after hearing the sound of the motorcycle.
When I saw that they were back, I was so happy that I couldn't open my mouth from ear to ear.
Xiang Jin got off the motorcycle first, "Grandma Mo, Grandpa Zeng, we are back!"
"Oh, good, good!"
Xiang Jin walked directly to Yan Chen to get the ingredients, and Yan Chen followed suit. After seeing it, Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng also hurriedly went down from the street eaves to the yard to help get it.
"Oh, why did you buy some vegetables again? We also bought some vegetables from the street in the morning?"
Xiang Jin said, "We have to go home anyway, so we brought some back from the town. Grandma Mo, let's go, go, go, go, let's go back quickly, otherwise these dishes will spoil later!"
Yan Chen paid the masters of Liangmo, and then the masters of Liangmo rode away on their respective motorcycles.
After entering the house, he asked, "How is it? Is the meat not bad?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "I smelled it, no!"
Yan Chen nodded, and then Grandma Mo asked them if they had eaten. If not, would she cook it for them?
The two of them said they had eaten, and Xiang Jin said, "After we got off the car, we went directly to Aunt Xiaoping's house to eat sauerkraut, tofu, fish and rice noodles."
Grandpa Zeng said, "Oh, we ate fish for lunch, so why did you buy another fish?"
Yan Chen glanced at Jin and said, "She said she would make boiled fish fillets for you."
Grandpa Zeng was immediately overjoyed, "Oh, it's good to eat again, it's good to have good food again! Girl Jin, I know you are thinking about Grandpa Zeng!"
Xiang Jin smiled and said, "That's necessary!"
Grandma Mo was also amused, and then Yan Chen suggested, "Put the meat in the refrigerator first."
"Oh, yes, yes," Grandma Mo responded immediately, and then said, "This piece of pork is a bit big. I'll go get the menu and the vegetable stool and divide it up."
Grandpa Zeng said, "Then let me release the rain. Don't wait until the oxygen in this bag is exhausted."
Xiang Jin nodded vigorously, "Well, yes, yes, you have to let it out."
The two old men went about their own business, and then Xiang Jin and Yan Chen walked aside to sit down and rest.
Seeing her eyes closed, Yan Chen asked, "Want to sleep?"
"Well, sort of!"
Yan Chen said, "Then rest for a while and then go back to the room to sleep."
Xiang Jin closed his eyes and shook his head, "It's okay, just close your eyes for a while and you'll be fine!"
After a while, Grandma Mo walked in with a kitchen knife and a vegetable stool. While she was cutting the pork, she said, "We all thought that you, Jin Yatou, would not come back today."
Xiang Jin opened his eyes as soon as he brushed the floor, then stood up from the sofa and walked towards Grandma Mo, "How could it be? I had to come back to say hello to you and Grandpa Zeng, otherwise there would be nothing.
Polite?"
Grandma Mo smiled and said, "You are such a polite and considerate girl."
Xiang Jin said, "It's not that you are polite, but that's how it should be!" After saying that, she returned to the living room, took out a brand new food bag from the drawer under the coffee table, walked to the dining table, and helped
Together with Grandma Mo, she packed up the divided meat piece by piece.
Grandma Mo looked at her and asked with a smile, "Are you still used to living with your grandparents?"
Xiang Jin looked in the direction of Yan Chen, "Did Yan Chen tell you all?"
Yan Chen looked very innocent, and Grandma Mo said, "No, didn't your cousin Yang Zhao go to school to see you once? Then he came back and said that your Sixth Master and his family had guests that day.
We went to their house to buy braised vegetables, and then heard what your grandma told them, wouldn’t we know now?”
"Oh, that's right," Xiang Jin nodded slightly, "Well, it's not bad. They are very good to me. They give me delicious meals three times a day, and you can see that my face has become rounder."
Grandma Mo really raised her head and looked at her seriously for a while, and then she said with a smile, "Well, it's a bit round, but this makes us feel relieved. What, he won't reply to us in the future."
Is your home coming to stay?”
Yan Chen also looked towards Jin.
Xiang Jin was startled, then said, "How could it be? As long as Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng don't dislike it, I will come back to see you once every month during the holidays!"
Grandma Mo was immediately overjoyed, "Oh, what are you talking about, little girl? Your Grandpa Zeng and I are so happy that you live in our house every day, how can we dislike it? Then it's settled."
, I will come back and stay for one day every month from now on, and I will stay a few more days during the winter and summer vacations!”
Xiang Jin looked at her happy expression, and then nodded vigorously, "Okay!"
Then Grandma Mo asked them what they wanted to eat at night, so she could prepare it early.
Xiang Jin said, "The fish must be cooked, but the chicken doesn't need to be cooked. Then you and Grandpa Zeng will stew it slowly in the house. We bought two pig ears. Look, you and Zeng
Yan Chen and I don’t care whether grandpa wants to eat braised or cold. Then we’ll make some stir-fried pork with dried bones and three meat dishes, and we’ll make a vegetarian dish later, it should be almost done, right?”
Grandma Mo nodded, "But I still have to prepare two more dishes. I will call your Aunt Liao over to have dinner with you later. She knew that you were coming back today, so she picked two watermelons and brought them over in the morning.
, said he would eat this to quench his thirst when you come back."
Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay, then look at what else to cook. I'll cook it with you later!"
Grandma Mo smiled with a smile on her face, "I'll definitely ask you to cook this fish when the time comes. Grandma Mo can't cook that fish well."
"It's okay, I'll just do this."
So after Grandma Mo and Xiang Jin discussed it, they later added three more dishes, two of which were meat and one vegetarian. So in the end, Xiang Jin and the others made a total of seven dishes and one soup.
After dinner, everyone sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. Xiang Jin also chatted with them. Then several uncles and aunts from the bay came to visit with a cattail leaf fan.
Grandma Mo went to the house and cut a watermelon for everyone to eat.
While everyone was eating and chatting, one of the aunts asked Xiang Jin, "Girl Jin, I heard that your grandparents over there went to the school to rent a house to wash clothes and cook for you?"
Xiang Jin was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly uncomfortably, "Ah, yes!"
The other party nodded vigorously, "Very good, very good! Now you have recognized your biological parents and grandparents, right?"
Xiang Jin was stunned again, and then said, "Absolutely!"
The other party nodded again, "That's good, that's good. You've had a hard life as a kid, so now it's time for all the hard work to come to an end!"
After all the hardships, happiness comes? That's not certain, but she has never accepted her fate.
She moved the corners of her lower lips slightly, revealing a faint smile.
Then I heard another aunt ask again, "So where will your household registration be moved? I would say it would be better to move as soon as possible!"
Xiang Jin was confused. Whether she could transfer her household registration or not had nothing to do with her aunt. Why did she just say that? So she asked, "What did aunt say?"
Yan Chen also looked at the aunt.
Aunt Liao, Grandma Mo, and Grandpa Zeng all had uncomfortable looks on their faces.
Then I saw the aunt looking at Grandma Mo and Aunt Liao in disbelief and saying, "Oh, didn't you tell her about this?"
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen felt more and more weird, and then they looked at Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo. They saw that the expressions on their faces became more and more unnatural, and then they heard Aunt Liao say
, “How can we talk about this thing that didn’t work out!”
The aunt said with a look of disapproval, "This is not just nonsense, nor is it us gossiping behind other people's backs, but it is the truth. Besides, I think children should know it well, so as not to cause anything else to happen."
I was kept in the dark and I suffered a secret loss without even knowing it."
Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo remained silent.
Xiang Jin asked, "Auntie, what do you want to say?"
The aunt said, "Son, you don't know, right? Your mother is Yang Juyun. After she heard that you now recognized your relatives over there, she went to the accountant of our brigade to ask for it that day.
Cancel your account from her account, but the accounting team didn’t
Agree, saying that unless your parents and you go to them in person to transfer their household registration, they will not have the right to take your household registration from their family's household registration, otherwise it will be illegal. If you then
If you sue them, he can't bear the responsibility!"
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen were both secretly surprised after hearing this. Yan Chen looked at her with some worry. Yang Juyun's behavior was simply too abominable and irritating. How could she do such an outrageous thing?
Come?
What does she want to do? To withdraw her household registration without informing her? Does she want her to become a black household?
This woman's thoughts are so sinister and vicious! It's so chilling. I wonder how sad Xiang Jin is feeling right now?
But Xiang Jin's heart was not as sad as Yan Chen thought. She had long been disappointed with that woman Yang Juyun. This was not the least of the stupid things she had done, but she just heard it at first glance.
This is still a little surprising!
She just said without changing her expression, "Oh, this is what you are talking about, I know this!"
"You know?"
Everyone looked at her in surprise, including Yan Chen. When did she know about this? Why didn't he know?
Xiang Jin nodded, "Ah, after we got off the bus in town today, we met two acquaintances from Baytou on the way to dinner, and then they told me about this!"
Yan Chen knew immediately that she was just lying. How could they meet anyone from Wantou when they were on the street today?
"Has someone already told you?" The other party still looked at her in disbelief and asked.
Xiang Jin nodded to them with a serious and innocent look, "Ah!"
"Which one is that?" the other party asked, staring into her eyes.
Xiang Jin said, "I can't say this. They are doing this for my own good. I can't sell them out."
Several people on the other side looked back angrily.
Then Xiang Jin said, "But our accountant Song still knows some legal knowledge!"
Everyone was stunned, it’s over? Is this the end?
Especially the two uncles and aunts, they all thought that Xiang Jin was going to get angry, and then they rushed directly to Yang Juyun's house to settle the score with her.
I didn't expect this girl to be so calm! But it's not easy for them to provoke others openly, so I felt a little bit disappointed in my heart.
When Xiang Jin saw their unhappy and unhappy expressions, he immediately understood what these people were like.
That must be because he dislikes Yang Juyun and wants to see her suffer misfortune or be taught a lesson. If he wants her to suffer misfortune and be taught a lesson, isn't it just his adopted daughter who wants her to suffer misfortune and be taught a lesson?
Everyone knew that she and Yang Juyun were now at the point where there was no trace of mother-daughter affection at all, and they had no contact with each other until death.
Yang Juyun did such a hateful thing to her, so he should be very angry and disgusted with her. In addition, his personality is not very good, and he is fierce in beating people. After being instigated by them, wouldn't he be a soaring person?
Are you going to rush over and cause trouble for Yang Juyun?
I don't know how Yang Juyun offended them, or maybe it's just a simple hatred of the rich, and it's hard to see that Yang Juyun, a woman, has so much money in her hands.
At this time, Xiang Jin also realized that these people were not here to chat. It was obvious that they were here for her, Xiang Jin, and they were here to act as gunners.
It is up to her to decide what she wants to do to Jin, and whether she wants to retaliate against others. She is not bewitched or provoked by people like them, so she does not act as a stick in their hands.
Several people saw her sitting there motionless, chatting with Grandma Mo and the others for a while, and then left on the grounds that it was getting late and they had to go back to wash up and go to bed.
As soon as they left, Grandma Mo and Aunt Liao looked at her apologetically and said, "Girl Jin, it's not that we won't tell you, but..." At this point, Aunt Liao didn't know how to continue, but faced
But he looked very guilty and anxious.
Xiang Jin took her hand and comforted her, "Auntie, and Grandma Mo, you don't need to explain to me. In fact, I know, and I can understand your psychology very well. You have never been the kind of people who like to talk behind your back.
People who gossip and gossip, if you tell me, you will inevitably feel that you are that kind of person who loves to gossip and stir up troubles. I have always been clear about your behavior. You only want the good of others and do not care about others.
Wishing others bad things!
I also know better what kind of person Xiang Lan’s mother is, so I wouldn’t be surprised even if she does something outrageous.
What's more, if she really loses my household registration, you won't hide it from me and will definitely notify me as soon as possible.
Since my household registration is still there and I haven't suffered any substantial damage, then let's forget about it and there's no need to worry about her so much."
Several elders nodded and said her method of handling it was good!
Then Grandma Mo asked, "What are your plans for this household registration?"
Xiang Jin said, "Let's stay here for the time being. I will move there after I take the college entrance examination next year."
Grandpa Zeng nodded, "Well, we can move directly to the school when the time comes, so as to avoid the trouble of moving here and there like this."
Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"
Then Aunt Liao asked, "Do your parents and grandparents agree?"
Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, they all agree, saying that they respect my own choices and decisions and they will not interfere with me!"
Several elders nodded, and Aunt Liao said, "That's good, that's good!"
When they went upstairs to sleep, the two of them were walking in the corridor, and then Yan Chen asked her, "Why did you lie to them just now that we met someone from Wantou on the street?"
Xiang Jin said, "Because they don't have any good intentions, I won't be fooled by them.
It was obviously them who told us here, but maybe they will blame Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo for this matter and tell the outside world that they told me!
After all, I live in your house, and I usually get close to Aunt Liao! I can't let them pour dirty water on them wantonly!
If they want to know who in Wan Tou said it, then they can just guess. There are so many people in Wan Tou anyway, so let them guess whatever they want!"
Yan Chen laughed, then reached out and tapped her on the forehead, "Ghost girl!" The eyes he looked at her were filled with smiles and affection.
Xiang Jin glared at him, touched the sore spot on his head and said, "Can you please stop hitting me on the head like this? You won't be able to afford it if you hit me stupidly!"
"Okay, okay, don't knock anymore, go to bed early," Yan Chen quickly arrived at the door of his room, then opened the door and watched her go.
