When the old lady heard what Mrs. Wang said, she immediately became unhappy, but she just frowned slightly and her voice remained gentle and persuasive.
"Yufen, I'm not blaming you. They've helped our family. What's wrong with treating them to a meal of chicken?
Besides, I heard that you two look very familiar. You are friends at first sight. We can't be so stingy as humans.
If you don't want to kill the chick, then let's kill the old hen. The chick should be able to lay eggs in a month or two. ” ?.?????.???
As she said that, she looked at Xia Li and her tone became a little gentler, "My child, don't listen to his nonsense. Auntie will stew chicken for you tonight. You need to replenish your body."
Sister-in-law Wang's face suddenly became even more ugly.
But before she could say anything, Xia Li frowned and retorted immediately: "No, my parents will cook at home at night, so let's leave the chickens to Xiaobao to lay eggs.
Our family usually has good food and does not need a chicken to replenish our health. There is no need to kill the chicken for such a small thing. "
Since she rescued Sister-in-law Wang, Sister-in-law Wang would cook braised pork for him every time she came back to the army.
After she came to the family home, Sister-in-law Wang often sent food to their home.
Xia Li didn't think that such a person would be short of one or two mouthfuls of food, so he was unwilling to give it to her.
What's more, she is closer to Sister-in-law Wang than this old lady with whom she has not had much contact, and will not participate in a fight at someone else's house and be used as a gunman.
Sister-in-law Wang then realized what she had just said. Although she was not directed at Xiaoxia, it could easily be misunderstood, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
She turned to look at Xia Li sheepishly, "Xiao Xia, I'm sorry, my sister-in-law was a little short-tempered just now.
Later, my sister-in-law will cook some braised pork in the evening. I wonder if my sister-in-law will compensate you. "
Xia Li waved his hand, "Why do you need to be so polite?
Before Brother Wang left, I promised him that I would help him take good care of you. You are so polite to me and you are so polite. "
Although Xia Li's relationship with Company Commander Wang is not as good as his relationship with Sister-in-law Wang, there are still some things that should be said.
After all, Sister-in-law Wang's mother is here. Company Commander Wang applied for the military compound, so she can't bully his wife here.
Xia Li thought well, but the actual situation was completely opposite to what she thought.
The old lady looked at Xia Li in surprise, "So before our third son went to the battlefield, did we entrust our daughter-in-law to your care?
Why didn't this kid tell me earlier? If I had told you earlier, I, a mother, would have come here, so why would I bother a little girl? "
Xia Li:......
Oh, it turned out to be the old woman, not the mother-in-law. No wonder she was so confident when she accused her daughter-in-law. It seemed that she had thought wrong before.
Sister-in-law Wang's face is extremely ugly now.
She suppressed the emotions in her heart and said to the old lady with a straight face: "Mom, you go in first, Xiaoxia and I have something to say.
If you need anything, I'll tell you when I get back. "
Even though Sister-in-law Wang had tried her best to endure it, there was still a hint of fatigue and impatience in her voice.
The old lady didn't have to stay here. When she heard this, her expression flashed with embarrassment, as if she just thought of causing trouble to her daughter-in-law, and she looked a little dazed.
"Okay, you two will chat first."
As she said that, she looked at Xia Li with a smile. Her smile was very friendly, like a very familiar grandma next door.
"Come and play at home when you have time."
After saying that, she took the chicken feeding basin and turned around and left.
Xia Li could feel that Sister-in-law Wang was obviously relieved after the old lady left.
Something is obviously wrong with this situation.
When there were only two people left, Xia Li pulled them under a big tree.
The shadows of the trees hit people's faces mottled, and the light and shadow were clearly extinguished.
Sister-in-law Wang lowered her head slightly, making it difficult to see the expression on her face clearly.
But when she looked at Xia Li, she returned to the virtuous woman she used to be.
Somewhat curiously, he asked Xia Li, "Xiao Xia, do you have any problem with me?"
Xia Li didn't have the habit of beating around the bush, so he asked directly.
"Do you need my help?
It seems that the relationship between you two is not very good. "
As for what kind of help they have to do, they both know clearly.
The old lady is obviously not on the same side as Sister-in-law Wang. There seems to be no other option except getting the old lady away or letting the old lady calm down.
Sister-in-law Wang didn't expect Xia Li to be so perceptive, and she immediately noticed that she and her mother-in-law were at odds with each other.
He refused again and again: “No, no, it’s no trouble.
They just saw our Lao Wang going to the battlefield, so they came over to take a look.
It is estimated that after a while when Lao Wang comes back, they will leave. "
Xia Li heard the current situation of the war from Gu Yunyi, but he didn't think that with the new weapons, the war would be over immediately.
"These are all uncertainties. There is no telling when the war will end.
If you are really in trouble, just tell me. "
She didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but she always felt that Sister-in-law Wang didn't want her to have contact with the old lady.
But that's just an old lady, so what's so good about her? Why is Sister-in-law Wang so taboo?
