Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was not until Grandpa Du and the others had left that Xue Darong thanked the villagers. It was not until the villagers had left and no one was around that he sighed.
Xue Da held Jiang Yue’s hand in one hand and Xue Yan’s hand in the other. He walked out of the room again and looked in the direction of the village entrance. He also sighed. He was still a little worried. “We’ve made them so embarra.s.sed. When they go back, they won’t vent their anger on Daxi and Hongguo, right?”
Xue Dahua said, “Father, even if they wanted to vent their anger on Daxi, Daxi wouldn’t tolerate it. It’s not like before. No matter what happens, Daxi would tolerate anything they say. It’s different now. Daxi can’t suffer any losses. Think about when she was still a girl at home. There was once when Xiaoxi was bullied. She chased the bully for a few miles with a kitchen knife. If we didn’t stop her, she would have chopped him up. How many people in the village were afraid of her then? It was only after she got married and did not go back to her parents’ home that everyone slowly forgot about this matter.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other in surprise, seemingly not expecting that their aunt would have such a valiant time.
“Yes, you’re right. With Daxi’s personality, she’ll be able to survive anything.” Xue Dafu agreed and chuckled at that fond memory. “There really is no need to worry.”
Xue Dahua was also embarra.s.sed. Although they were blood brothers, the two families had not interacted for a long time and had not spoken at all.
Liu Guixia could only smile awkwardly.
His wife actually saw the awkwardness between Xue Dahua and Xue Dafu, but she didn’t say anything and looked elsewhere.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan only exchanged glances again.
Xue Da, Xue Darong, and the others didn’t notice this. They just thought about it and felt that it was true. Daxi was very valiant, so they weren’t worried that Xue Daxi and Du Hongguo would vent their anger back.
After chatting for a while, Xue Dafu and the others brought Jiang Yue and Xue Yan back and continued to tidy up the old house.
Even the smallest of corners were cleaned up.
Du Shanqiang walked out of Locust Village and decided to take a walk. Seeing that his parents were still calling for him, he knew that his parents were finally willing to leave, so he turned back.
Then, what greeted him was a scolding from his parents. “You useless thing! What else can you do!”
“Father, Mother, don’t you feel ashamed?”
“The one who lost was the Xue family. What does it have to do with us? It’s not like we can’t give birth to a son!”
“But they were all scolding us just now!”
“That’s their people, Of course, they’re scolding us! If it was in our village, they would be scolded! Who wouldn’t speak up for the people in their village?”
Du Shanqiang was so angry that he wanted to turn around and leave again, but his parents were old, after all, and he couldn’t just ignore them. “I’ll go to Willow Village to see if there are any oxcarts to hire and ask them to send us back. ”
On their way here, they encountered an ox cart on the way. It just so happened that there were other people riding on that ox cart, so they spent one coin each. He could walk back by himself, but his parents definitely could not walk back. They had to hire an ox cart.
It was just that if he specially hired a car, it would naturally cost a lot more than if he took a ride.
He estimated that this trip would cost at least 15 copper coins.
Especially now that it was the first month of the year, everything was more expensive.
Grandma Du could not bear to part with so much money and immediately said,” Why did you spend so much money!’
“Then can you and Father walk back on your own?” Du Shanqiang immediately asked..
