80s: After Marrying a Disabled Man, I Am Really Fragrant

 Chapter 23 Chapter 23: Stealing the chicken but losing the rice

After seeing off a few aunties, we soon welcomed the workers from the textile factory. Before the workers had finished leaving, the students from the school came again. Some of the students had eaten their spicy strips and dried fish, so they specially Bring your classmates here to buy.

Because she was a student and didn't have much money in her hands, Ning Xi didn't think they had too much money. She would buy everything for one penny or two cents. Although the students didn't buy much, she brought a few classmates over and weighed them. It didn't take long. It's already sold out.

 When the two of them packed their backpacks and prepared to go back, two uninvited guests appeared.

 Chen Haijun and Ning Juan walked out of the textile factory arm in arm.

The two of them also saw Ning Xi, holding hands and walking towards them. Before they arrived, Ning Juan had already shouted, "Second sister."

Ning Xi packed her things slowly without raising her head.

"Second sister, why did you come here to set up a stall?" Ning Juan walked up to Ning Xi, held Ning Xi's hand intimately and asked with a worried look on her face, "Didn't you just take 400 yuan from your uncle?" ? No more?”

"Ningjuan, what do you want to express? Do you want to say that I am already married and still go to my parents' house to get money, or do you want to say that I am lazy and just got 400 yuan and squandered it all?" Ning Xi withdrew her hand and talked to Ning Xi with a cold face. Juan distanced herself.

This is Ning Juan's usual method. She says caring words, but slanders her everywhere.

In her previous life, she was deceived by Ning Juan's attitude of always caring for her. If she could have had some brains, she might not have suffered so much from them.

Ning Juan lowered her head in grievance, "Second sister, I didn't mean that."

Ning Xi pursed her lips and pretended to be aggrieved. She was clearly the victim, but in front of her, Ning Juan, she seemed like a bad person. "What does that mean? I did take money from them, but those My man bought the money with two legs. They took away 600 yuan of the 1,000 yuan pension for various reasons. Ning Hong also found reasons to borrow 300 yuan from me, and the entire 900 yuan went to them. pocket, I only got back 400, is it wrong?”

 “Sister, isn’t it already...”

Before Ning Juan could speak, Ning Xi had already interrupted her, "I heard that Ning Erlong asked Chen Haijun for a gift of 200 yuan. If you don't get the money within three days, you will be forced to go to the hospital to have the baby in your belly aborted."

Ning Juan’s face turned red from suppressing her emotions, “This is my home…”

Ning Xi looked down at Ning Juan's belly and interrupted her again, "Ningjuan, what do your parents think? You are pregnant with a child and you still have so many demands. Let alone the 200 yuan gift, let's go to the countryside. There aren’t many people in the town who can get it, and everyone in the village knows that you were pregnant before marriage, so there’s no way you can get married if you beat the child.”

Zhang Ying had already packed her backpack, put it on her back and said at the right time, "Why not? Those whose wives have died will not dislike her."

"You guys are going too far." Ning Juan's eyes were red, and she looked as if she had suffered a great deal of grievance. She was obviously the one who came to embarrass Ning Xi first, and Ning Xi didn't say anything unpleasant. Evil man.

"Is what Ning Xi said wrong? You are already pregnant, and your parents still have the nerve to ask for a 200 yuan gift. If a girl from another family wishes that the man would pick her up quickly to avoid embarrassment." Chen Haijun withdrew his hand that was caught by Ning Juan. hand and walked away without looking back.

"Ning Xi, I'm not done with you." Ning Juan glared at Ning Xi fiercely and hurriedly chased Chen Haijun. "Brother Haijun, you know that I am devoted to you wholeheartedly."

“But it’s true that your parents wanted to use you to take money from me so that your brother could save it and find a wife. If I hadn’t really liked you, I wouldn’t have been afraid of your parents sending you to the hospital for an abortion.”

 Watching the two of them walking away, Ning Xi's lips curled up slightly.

 Single-minded?

I'm just waiting to see how long the two of you will be single-minded.

“Xiao Xi, Yingzi.” Lu Zhenghai took Lu Bei out of the school and saw the two of them from a distance.

 “Dad (third uncle)” the two of them hurriedly greeted.

As they got closer, Lu Bei also said hello, "Second sister-in-law, sister-in-law." Ning Xi smiled and asked, "How did Xiaobei do in the exam?"

Lu Bei raised his head proudly, "First in grade."

His arrogant look looked like he deserved a beating. Lu Zhenghai couldn't bear to look at it. "What's the point of being proud of? If you have the ability to take first place in the school every year like your sister-in-law."

Speaking of Ning Xi, Lu Zhenghai glanced at Ning Xi, with disappointment in his eyes again. If this girl had listened to him and continued studying, she would have finished taking the college entrance examination and was waiting at home to get the admission notice.

Zhang Ying also couldn't stand Lu Bei's arrogant look and half-jokingly said, "Xiao Bei, if you don't work hard, when your sister-in-law returns to school next semester, you won't even be able to get the first place in grade."

Lu Bei said in a nonchalant manner, "There is no shame in losing to my sister-in-law."

Lu Zhenghai was surprised and happy and asked hurriedly, "Have you decided to go back to study?"

Ning Xi nodded, "Yeah! Brother Nan will also take the college entrance examination next year. If I don't even have a high school diploma, how can I be worthy of him?"

"Life is yours to live. Only you know whether you are worthy or not. As long as you are good to yourself, it doesn't matter what others say." Lu Zhenghai had a faint smile on his face, and the disappointment in his eyes disappeared.

Ning Xi smiled slightly, "Before school starts, I have to trouble my dad to help me go through the procedures for returning to school!"

“Just say hello to the school when you open the school. The school will be very happy to have you back.”

●Today happened to be a market day, and a few people were going back in a bullock cart.

By the time the four of them returned to the village, it was almost half past twelve. Lu Zhenghai handed an oil paper bag to Ning Xi, "I bought pig's trotters for Xiaonan. You can take them back and stew them for him."

In the past, I asked Wang Xiuqin to help stew the bones and pig trotters I bought. Today, I saw that Ning Xi was in good condition with Lu Nan, so there was no need to ask Wang Xiuqin to help.

"Dad, it's already past lunch. You and Xiaobei have to cook again when you go back, otherwise you'll have to eat at our place." Most people have already had lunch at this time. According to Yang Yufeng's selfishness, it is unlikely that she will give it to Lu Zhenghai and Lu Bei stayed for dinner.

Lu Zhenghai thought for a while and nodded in agreement, "That's fine."

 After returning home, Ning Xi put down her backpack and walked to the kitchen, "Dad, you guys have a rest first, and I'll cook two more vegetables."

She first went to the small vegetable garden outside the kitchen to pick two bitter melons and some green peppers, and made fried lean meat with bitter melon and fried meat with green peppers. While the rice was not ready yet, she took out the pig's feet, washed them, put them into a casserole and added some medicinal materials. Stew.

“Dad, Brother Nan, and Xiaobei are eating.” Ning Xi stood at the door of the kitchen and shouted, then walked back to the kitchen and put the food on the table.

“It’s so spicy.” Lu Bei rubbed his nose as soon as he entered the kitchen. The smell of green pepper was too spicy.

Lu Nan glanced at Lu Bei with a look of disgust, "Why didn't you find it spicy when you were eating spicy strips?"

"The spicy strips are not spicy." Lu Bei said that the chili peppers were spicy, but he still put some in his mouth. "The food cooked by my sister-in-law is just better than the food cooked by my mother."

“If you like eating, you can come here to eat every day.” Ning Xi smiled and gave Lu Nan some bitter melon. “Brother Nan, eat more bitter melon. It can clear away heat and relieve the heat.”

"Why is this bitter melon made? It's only a little bit bitter." Lu Zhenghai couldn't help but pinch the bitter melon again. In his opinion, eating bitter melon is bitter no matter how it is made. This is the first time he has eaten bitter melon with only a faint bitter taste. arrive.
