Chapter 361: Are you from the Xie family at home?
The crowd surrounded her more tightly, and some even came up to surround Xie Jiaojiao.
Because the weather was cold, he tucked his hands into his sleeves, huddled up, and looked at Xie Jiaojiao pitifully.
At this time, someone spoke up: "Ms. Xie, it was all our fault that we offended you. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Someone agreed: "That's right, Miss Xie, we didn't do that on purpose at the beginning. It was really Wang Qiushi who took the lead. You know she was the wife of the village chief at the time, so we villagers still have to give her face."
"Yes, Miss Xie, we are from the same village, we will meet each other sooner or later, let's just let those things in the past go."
They were talking at the same time, with the eldest daughter of the Xie family on the left and the eldest daughter of the Xie family on the right. What they said was all the same, which made Xie Jiaojiao feel a little annoyed.
Jiang Weinan also saw that Xie Jiaojiao didn't want to pay attention to these people, so he just threw the fish basket in his hand to the ground. This sudden action scared everyone.
"Okay, are you done? Why is it that every time my wife comes back to the village, you messy people come to make trouble? What's the matter? Your life is not very comfortable, and after you come and bark at my wife, your life will be comfortable?"
When everyone heard this, they pursed their lips.
He Youcai said, "How can you say that? We all came here to apologize because we saw Xie Jiaojiao coming back."
Xie Jiaojiao looked up at him and nodded: "Okay, didn't you say you wanted to apologize to me?"
Everyone looked at Xie Jiaojiao and nodded.
"But I don't accept it. You can leave now."
As Xie Jiaojiao spoke, she pulled Jiang Weinan towards the house.
Everyone immediately became unwilling and blocked Xie Jiaojiao's way.
"Ms. Xie, why are you like this? We are here to apologize sincerely."
"That's right. We are from the same village. Is it necessary to be like this?"
He Youcai glanced at Xie Jiaojiao and said to everyone, "Look, we came here to apologize with good intentions, but he is rich now and doesn't want to bother with us poor folks."
Everyone looked at Xie Jiaojiao, and their eyes instantly became less friendly.
Xie Jiaojiao felt that he was like a clown, and stared at him with amusement: "He Youcai, is your wife back? I heard that she divorced you and remarried. You are so old and your family is so poor, can you still marry a wife?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at He Youcai, their eyes full of sympathy for him.
He Youcai's face was blue and red, and he was extremely angry in his heart!
"Xie Jiaojiao, don't go too far. If it weren't for you, would my wife run away?" he said angrily!
"If I remember correctly, your wife was beaten away by you, right?" Xie Jiaojiao rolled her eyes.
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but laugh.
He Youcai glanced at the man, then glared at Xie Jiaojiao, as if he wanted to eat her, but he couldn't say a word.
Xie Jiaojiao looked at everyone again: "Don't think I don't know what you mean by deliberately coming here to apologize. Forget about the sugar cane. I still remember what I said in the cave. Since you were so confident and courageous at that time, please continue to be courageous!"
Xie Jiaojiao's words immediately extinguished everyone's hope. Everyone had an expression of embarrassment, discomfort, and resentment on their faces.
"Ms. Xie, please don't be so absolute. After all, everyone grows sugarcane and sells it to you, so you are the one who makes the most money."
"That's right, how can you go against money? We are helping you make money!"
"Help me? Why? I begged you to plant sugarcane?" Xie Jiaojiao was so angry that she almost laughed. She thought of the same thing in the cave. It was obviously she who helped them, but in the end, in the minds of these people, it became that they were helping her! How ridiculous.
Not wanting to repeat what he said in the cave before, he pointed at everyone and said, "Get out of here! If you come to cause trouble again, I won't let any of you go."
Everyone stopped talking, but looking at their eyes, they were still a little unconvinced. After Jiao finished speaking, she looked at the people blocking her way: "Why don't you get out of the way? Are you forcing me to do it?"
The person blocking her way immediately showed a trace of fear on his face, and he automatically moved away. Xie Jiaojiao had never been soft-hearted when she attacked...
Jiang Weinan glared at the man and said, "You're smart!"
After saying that, he pulled Xie Jiaojiao through the crowd and went into the house.
Cuizhu put her hands on her hips and looked at these people: "Bah, you ungrateful people! I tell you, if you still guard our door, you will suffer the consequences!"
After Cuizhu finished speaking, she closed the door with a loud bang.
After listening to her, everyone stood outside the door and cursed for a long time. Then the door opened again, and Cuizhu, Hanlu and Lai Fu each held a basin of water and poured it out.
"what...."
"what...."
There were screams at the door!
"You evil slaves! You lowly bastards, how dare you throw water on us!" The man at the door was shaking, shouting and cursing, as if he had polio.
Cuizhu held the basin in one hand and put the other hand on her waist: "I warned you, don't block our door!"
"That's right! You dare to use foul language to insult my young master and mistress. You will be beaten with sticks next time!" After Lai Fu finished speaking, he turned around and followed Cuizhu to close the door.
The people standing at the back of the door were fine, they were not splashed much, but the people at the front were the ones who jumped the hardest, they were splashed all over, without saying a word, they ran home, they were soaked all over. It was winter, and when the cold wind blew, they felt like they were about to turn into popsicles!
Seeing that everyone had left, Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan changed their clothes and set off for Xie Zhili's house.
As soon as I arrived at the gate, Liu Mingyue came to greet me, wearing an apron and smiling, saying, "I was just about to call you. Come in quickly, dinner will be served soon."
Aunt Wang brought out the dishes. Xie Jiaojiao smelled very good. She glanced at Liu Mingyue who was cooking in the kitchen and thought that her cooking skills were also quite good.
"I knew you guys were coming back yesterday. I had originally planned to invite you to my house for a meal, but I never thought that Mingyue would come before I even left the house."
Liu Mingyue came over with the food and said with a smile: "Luckily, I was one step faster, otherwise Aunt Wang would have snatched it away."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "You little girl!"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at her face and saw that although she looked happy, her eyes were dark and her face was sallow. She asked, "Aunt Wang, have you been feeling better recently?"
Aunt Wang waved her hands and said, "It's okay. They are just old problems. Please sit down quickly. There are two more dishes. We will start eating soon."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the kitchen.
Niu Er and Xie Zhili brought back the firewood at this time.
After putting down the firewood, Liu Mingyue scooped up some hot water and asked them to wash their hands.
Liu Mingyue said, "Go change your clothes quickly. I've put clean clothes on the bed. Change and come out quickly. Jiaojiao and the others are here."
Xie Zhili turned around and saw Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan in the room. He nodded slightly to them, turned back to Liu Mingyue and said with a smile: "Then I'll be back soon."
When he comes out again, it's time for dinner.
Liu Mingyue took out a pot of wine from the house and filled everyone's glasses.
Sun Ruhua was extremely satisfied seeing how well she could do things.
At the dinner table, Jiang Weinan gave them the household registration that he had helped them to re-do at the government office.
Xie Zhili and Liu Mingyue looked at their names on the household registration and smiled at each other.
"Thank you."
Jiang Weinan waved his hands quickly: "Oh, no, it's just a matter of convenience."
After Xie Zhili finished speaking, he raised his glass with a smile and was about to toast everyone.
Li Lihua's voice came from outside the courtyard: "Is Xie's family home?"
