Han Mo looked back at the man silently, and could only briefly see his back as he walked around the corner.

It is a kind of fleeing figure.

Han Chen heard what was going on from Cheng Xu's tone and was wary of the person Cheng Xu called Uncle Wang, but Sibo didn't quite understand yet.

"Sister, has he ever seen you off? Your relationship is very good."

Cheng Xu was amazed by this silly boy's brain. How could he study well but not look at his face?

"Oh...go home and cook early."

It was almost time to get off work, and people were returning home one after another in the residential buildings. Cheng Xu had lived here for more than ten years, and the people nearby were very familiar with her. Everyone was smart enough not to ask Cheng Xu why he came back so diligently recently. I can go home twice a month and just talk to her about other things.

Aunt Wu lived next door to Cheng Xu's house. She saw Cheng Xu carrying dishes, followed by a good-looking man, and asked Cheng Xu directly: "Xu Xu, is this your man?"

Cheng Xu's father had told people nearby that his daughter was getting married and that the man was in the countryside. They all thought he was a bastard and must not be good-looking.

The man who looked like this today was obviously beyond their understanding.

Cheng Xu: "Yes, my husband's name is Han Chen."

Cheng Xu remembered that this was Aunt Wu who lived next door to the original owner's house. She loved gossip as much as Sister-in-law Yang, but the difference was that Sister-in-law Yang knew what was important and what could and could not be said. She was very strict in controlling herself, but this Aunt Wu was not , relying on the high status of her man, she dares to tell anyone about anything she knows. As long as your status is lower than her man, she will not keep information from you.

Aunt Wu circled around Han Chen and praised her: "You have good eyesight, but I'm a little thinner. Go home and give your man more to make up for. You have to work hard to do farm work. If you don't have the strength to work, you won't earn work points." You're going to starve."

She is too good-looking to be eaten. Aunt Wu thinks that Cheng Xu will marry this man just because of his face.

Cheng Xu did not deny Aunt Wu's words: "Well, there is good food for him. There is a lot of food in the countryside, and there is food everywhere. My husband's family is in good condition. My uncles are all capable people. I have never treated him badly. It's him." I’m so thin because I’m a picky eater.”

Aunt Wu looked at Cheng Xu and said embarrassedly about her man's shortcomings, such as being a picky eater. No, it's not easy to eat well now. Cheng Xu and her man are still picky eaters!

What kind of family can raise such a person?

Aunt Wu felt jealous in her heart. She was jealous that this person's family was well-off and well-fed. Even though her family looked good, she knew her own affairs, and there were times when her family didn't have enough to eat.

Han Chen couldn't hide the smile in his eyes as he listened to Cheng Xu mouthing off my man.

Aunt Wu: "Really? Then... the conditions are better now, but it's not okay to be picky about food. You have to let your man change."

"He has changed now and will eat whatever I cook."

Aunt Wu didn't talk much. She came back to cook at this time, so she went back on the pretext of cooking.

The people walking slowly nearby also heard what they were supposed to hear. When they saw the person involved leaving, they also left.

The crowd dispersed, and when Cheng Xu returned home, she told the two of them not to tell anyone nearby about anything. She felt relieved about Han Chen, but not about Sibo, a silly boy.

"Everyone around here has their own thoughts. If you have nothing to do, just stop talking." From now on, this is where Sibo will often come back. His brain is not flexible and he is easy to be used as a target.

Sibo is a bit stupid when it comes to emotional intelligence, but he is smart enough to know that his sister will not cheat him, so that the people behind him can't even knock the questions out of his mouth.

"Han Chen, help me wash the vegetables. Sibo will clear the table first. After that, he will help your brother-in-law wash the vegetables."

Cheng Xu started cooking after making arrangements. Food for eight people was a big undertaking, and since there was no gas or coal here, she didn't dare to make stir-fried dishes for fear of not having enough firepower.

Today I’m going to make crucian carp with wolfberry flavor, braised pork sausage, cucumber and preserved egg soup, stir-fried vegetable leaves, homemade tofu, and spicy chicken.

There are six dishes in total, but the portions are plenty.

When Cheng Xu made the spicy chicken, he felt it was not satisfactory, but for others it was already very fragrant. Originally, there were more people living on each floor of the stair house at this time, and the kitchen was all open-air cooking, and the surrounding neighbors watched. When Cheng Xu cooked the food, everyone swallowed hard.

Some cheeky children rushed up to Cheng Xu and asked if they could give him some to eat. Cheng Xu just put the lid on the pot and dismissed him without saying a word.

"Baby...ah ah ah, I want to eat, please give it to me!"

At first glance, the little boy seemed to have been pampered by his family. When Cheng Xu refused to feed him, he sat on the ground crying and fussing.

What a wild scene.

Cheng Xu was unmoved. After all, he was not her child, and she was not the one who was embarrassed. If the child's relatives could let him cry here, she was still willing to listen. They just treated it as a opera.

The tricks that had been tried many times before didn't work, and the boy stopped crying after Cheng Xu ignored him.He stared straight at the pot where Cheng Xu was cooking. When Cheng Xu turned around to get the seasonings, he stretched his hand directly into the pot.

"what are you doing!"

Liu Sibo noticed the boy's movements and ran over and slapped the boy's hand off.

Another burst of crying sounded, but this time in addition to the boy's cry, there was also a female voice.

"The child is young, why are you hitting him?"

Seeing their child being beaten, the boy's family finally came out.

This woman looks to be in her 30s, with a lean body and slender eyes. "My child's hands are red from your beatings. You are so much older than him, how can you hit him? Respect the old and love the young. You have not escaped from the book." ?"

Cheng Xu added salt to the last dish of braised pork sausage, stir-fried it twice, and then took it out of the pot. He asked Han Chen to put the dish on the table: "You have read a book, but why did you teach your son to be like a mangy dog ​​and not give him anything to eat?" Just cry.”

This woman also existed in Cheng Xu's memory. She was also a weirdo on the same floor as Cheng Xu's family. A family that valued boys over girls heard that they threw away their daughter without raising her after she was born, but she didn't know if this rumor was true. , I only know that after I met this woman before and had a son, she always laughed at those families without sons and looked down on girls. Now this boy is this woman’s first son, born when she was almost 30 years old. Raised like an ancestor.

This is no different from Zhou Zhaodi's brother.

The woman was displeased when she heard what Cheng Xu said about her son: "It's normal for boys to be spoiled. What are you doing by talking so much? My son hasn't suffered much from you either."

She reached into the pot with her hands. This boy's hands were as black as coals. How could she eat them if he caught them!

"Are you blind? He just put his hand directly into the pot. It's as black as coal. How can we eat it if it's dirty? I even doubt whether you are your real mother. Your son is as dirty as a child. He's like a beggar, you never thought of washing him."

Han Chen also stood next to Cheng Xu and said with a stern face: "Auntie, it's your son's problem. It's him you want to educate, not my wife."

When a 1.8-meter man stands in front of a woman, even if Han Chen is not fat but rather thin, it still makes the woman feel intimidated.
