Zhou Xia smiled shyly and glanced at Luo Fengtang opposite.
Seeing Luo Fengtang keep his head buried in eating, he didn't say a word or look at her.
Zhou Xia curled her lips and reached out to pick up a boiled egg.
I cracked the shell gently on the edge of the table, and then peeled it off neatly with my delicate fingers.
After a while, the eggs were peeled cleanly and round.
In front of all the elders, Zhou Xia put the egg into Luo Fengtang's bowl.
"Cousin, don't just eat pancakes. Eat an egg to replenish your health."
Zhou Xia looked at Luo Fengtang tenderly, with sincere concern written all over her face.
Luo Da'e saw this and said quickly: "Oh, my Xia'er is really sensible and virtuous, so considerate of others."
Blacksmith Luo also looked pleased.
As the eldest brother of the old Luo family, what he wants to see most is for these juniors to be united and loving, and to be respectful brothers and sisters.
However, Luo Fengtang, who was involved in the incident, seemed indifferent to Zhou Xia's kind gesture.
He only paused slightly while holding the chopsticks, without looking at Zhou Xia, and continued to scoop the gruel into his mouth.
Luo Da'e curled her lips and snorted, looking unhappy.
Zhou Tong stopped Luo Dae with his eyes.
Blacksmith Luo was a little embarrassed and had to scold Luo Fengtang.
"Tangyaozi, your sister is kind enough to peel eggs for you, why don't you say thank you to her?" Blacksmith Luo said.
Luo Fengtang, who had always obeyed blacksmith Luo, made a dull gourd this time.
Blacksmith Luo was even more embarrassed and a little annoyed.
Glancing at Luo Da'e who looked unhappy next to him, Blacksmith Luo planned to give Luo Fengtang a few more words of scolding.
Was persuaded by Zhou Xia.
"Uncle, don't say that to my cousin. My cousin is so cold-hearted and hot-tempered."
"Besides, I'm not an outsider, so why would I care about this with my cousin?"
Zhou Xia persuaded and glanced at Luo Fengtang, as gentle as water.
She wasn't annoyed at all when he didn't thank him.
As long as he didn't send back the eggs she peeled, she would have taken the first step to success.
With this step, there is the second step, the third step...
"The porridge is almost cold. Uncle, let's eat it quickly. Xia'er will also peel one for uncle..."
As Zhou Xia said, she picked up another egg, peeled it off and put it into Blacksmith Luo's bowl.
Blacksmith Luo looked at Zhou Xia, Lao Huai was pleased.
"It's better to be a daughter, sweet little cotton-padded jacket!" He sighed and took a bite of the egg.
After eating an egg, Blacksmith Luo grabbed the wine bottle beside him.
"Da'e, Zhou Tong, thank you very much for coming over this time to burn incense and shower the tomb."
"The eldest brother doesn't have a woman at home, so the reception is not complete, and Da'e has to cook..."
"Come, come, come, big brother, I'll give you another cup to see you off. When the farm is off, I will come back from time to time with my children..."
Blacksmith Luo said, raising the wine cup towards Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong also quickly put down his chopsticks and picked up the wine cup.
The two men bumped into each other again.
On the side, Luo Da'e waved her hand vaguely to Blacksmith Luo while putting some peanuts into her mouth.
"Brother, I forgot to tell you."
"Zhou Tong will go back today. Xia'er and I will have to stay with you for a few days!" Luo Daye said.
"ah?"
Blacksmith Luo was surprised.
Luo Fengtang, who had been eating silently, was also stunned and frowned slightly.
Over there, Luo Daye continued talking.
"Xia'er has a sprain in her ankle. She can't walk long distances. We'll wait for her to recover for a few days before we go," she said.
Before Blacksmith Luo had time to express his position, Luo Fengtang, who had been silent, had already spoken out first.
"It's okay if you can't leave. I'll get a bullock cart to take you back." He said.
Luo Daye almost choked after taking a bite of the cake.
He swallowed hard before finally swallowing the cake.
She pointed at Luo Fengtang with the chopsticks in her hand and shouted: "Oh my, why are you so ignorant?"
"Your sister hasn't been to your house for several years. You just didn't want to keep her here for a few more days, and you rushed her out in front of her like this?"
Luo Fengtang said expressionlessly: "I didn't rush, but she said she couldn't walk a long way. Is it bad if I kindly give her a ride?"
He shook his head, lowered his head and continued to scoop up the gruel.
Luo Daye was so angry that she started shouting with Blacksmith Luo again.
Zhou Xia sat there with her head lowered, her face flushed, and she bit her lip.
Blacksmith Luo fights as big as an ox.
"Da'e, don't misunderstand, Tang Yazi didn't mean that..."
Blacksmith Luo explained.
"Then what does he mean? Is this still my parents' home? Can I stay with my daughter who has a foot injury for a few more nights? Brother, please give me a warm word!"
Luo Daye said sharply.
"It takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones. Although my cousin's foot injury is not that serious, it is necessary to rest for a few days without getting off the ground!"
A crisp voice suddenly broke in.
Immediately, a figure entered the courtyard.
Everyone followed the sound and saw Yang Ruoqing entering the main room with a smile.
Luo Fengtang's eyes lit up instantly.
"Qing'er, why are you here? Have you had breakfast?"
When he asked these words, he had already pulled away and came to her side.
Yang Ruoqing smiled at him and nodded.
"I've eaten early. I just came back from sending my two younger brothers to school." She said.
"I was worried about cousin Xia'er's foot injury, so I came in to have a look," she said.
Luo Fengtang nodded.
Blacksmith Luo beside him looked pleased and nodded secretly.
Xia'er is considerate, and Qing'er, the niece-in-law, is even more sensible.
They are all good girls!
Zhou Tong, who was sitting at the table, also looked moved when he heard Yang Ruoqing's words.
"Girl Qing, I'm sorry for you, you still miss Xia'er like this." Zhou Tongtong said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and waved her hand: "Uncle, don't be polite to me, we are relatives."
After saying that, her eyes fell on Zhou Xia.
"Cousin, how do your feet feel after last night? Does it hurt a lot?"
she asked with a smile.
Zhou Xia suppressed her annoyance and smiled gratefully at Yang Ruoqing.
"It doesn't hurt much anymore. Thanks to my cousin for pushing me."
Thank you, eight generations of your family, for allowing me to suffer for nothing!
Zhou Xia gritted her teeth secretly.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded: "It's good if it doesn't hurt too much. Cousin, your feet are inconvenient, so it's okay to stay here for a few more days."
"Anyway, I'm free every day. Just give me a shout and I'll be here..."
"No no no."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Xia.
"Xia'er appreciates my cousin's kindness. I don't need to push my foot anymore. Let it recover slowly on its own." Zhou Xia said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded cheerfully: "That's okay, but you have to ask your cousin to go to town to get you some medicine for bruises, drink it, and then nurse it back to health."
"Your sister has been afraid of hardship since she was a child and can't take the medicine. There's no need to waste that money!"
Luo Daye quickly stopped Zhou Xia.
During the massage session yesterday, the woman was so concerned that she became confused and did not understand what her daughter meant.
