Zhang Xiaochi "......"
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zhang Lanying was angry, but Grandma Zhou kept saying that she was shy.
Zhang Xiaochi was embarrassed when he heard this, covered his face, smiled embarrassedly at Lu Beiting, and then hurriedly walked in the direction of the kitchen.
Lu Beiting watched the two sisters and brothers walk into the kitchen one after the other, hooked the corners of their lips, and didn't say anything.
However, Grandma Zhou kept pulling Lu Beiting and chattering non-stop. …… In the kitchen, Zhang Lanying was squatting in front of the earthen stove to pick up firewood and add it to the stove, when she heard a rush of footsteps at the door, she glanced back, and saw Zhang Xiaochi also walking in from outside, frowned, and asked lazily, "Why did you come in?"
Why don't you accompany your grandmother to greet Lu Beiting?
” Zhang Xiaochi touched his nose stupidly, lied and said without blushing: "Oh, grandma said that you must not be busy in the kitchen alone, so she asked me to come in to help you."
He rolled up his sleeves and squatted down, "What's more, Brother Lu is not an outsider, it is the same whether he greets him or not, and he won't mind." ” In fact, Zhang Xiaochi didn't want to listen to Grandma Zhou talking about Zhang Lanying's affairs outside.
But it was difficult to stop it, so I had to go into the kitchen to hide.
In this way, even if Grandma Zhou said something more shocking to Lu Beiting outside, he wouldn't have to stand there embarrassed and at a loss.
Zhang Lanying didn't believe what he said, but she didn't wear it either, "Then you dig some water from the tank into the pot, and I'll go wash the rice."
She threw the last piece of wood into the earthen stove, then got up from the small stool, patted the dust off her body, picked up the iron basin on the side, walked to the rice bowl, opened the rice bag brought by her grandmother, dug up six bowls of rice and put them in the iron basin, and planned to use a larger retort to steam the rice in a while.
In this way, if you ask those uncles to come to your house for dinner, you don't have to worry about running out of rice.
After all, in this day and age, food is still quite precious, and most of us eat gnocchi soup and paste on weekdays, or steamed buns with pickles, etc., as for white rice, it is generally taken out to greet guests when they come to the house.
But it is also according to the amount, so that some people with a large amount of food can eat three or four bowls at a meal.
In the end, the amount of rice cooked by the amount is often not enough.
If the guests are embarrassed, even the host will be very embarrassed.
It won't sound good if it gets out. said that the host politely invited them to eat at home, but in fact, the cooked rice was not enough at all, and they were afraid that they would eat more.
So in order to prevent this from happening, she would rather cook a little more rice than have such gossip spread from their house, lest the people in the village look down on their siblings more and more.
"Okay."
Zhang Xiaochi responded happily, then got up and walked to the water tank, picked up the water ladle and mixed half a pot of water into the pot, then picked up the big lid placed on the earthen stove and covered it, glanced at Zhang Lanying who was washing rice in the backyard, flashed her dark eyes, and strode over.
"Sister, have you ever thought about what your grandmother said just now?"
Zhang Xiaochi asked curiously, in fact, he also agreed with his grandmother in his heart, and agreed with her and Brother Lu together.
As long as the two of them are together, then their sister and brother will have a support in the village in the future.
What's more, Brother Lu is still a good person, his sister will definitely not lose when he is with him, and I believe that Brother Lu will definitely bring happiness to his sister in the future.
But if he met other men, he wouldn't dare to be so sure.
It's just that......
In this kind of thing, it's not that anyone can do it if he's optimistic, the key is to see what his sister thinks in her heart.
If his sister also agreed with this from the bottom of her heart, then he and his grandmother would definitely wish her happiness.
But what if it's not ......
Grandma is so energetic to be a matchmaker for his sister and Brother Lu, it will definitely make everyone feel very embarrassed in the end.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaochi's head became a little headache.
Zhang Lanying's hand paused for a moment, glanced at him sideways, frowned, and said, "What are you thinking about?"
"Do they want her to marry off quickly?
She put the rice basin aside, crossed her hands on her hips, and pretended to be unhappy and said, "Hey, Zhang Xiaochi, I said when did you become such a gossip kid, are you begging for a beating?"
As she spoke, she made a fist clenching gesture.
Zhang Xiaochi pursed his mouth, and when he saw that she was deliberately scaring him, he knew that she didn't agree with this matter, but he didn't continue to ask.
But he still muttered something in his heart.
This Brother Lu is also the prince charming in the hearts of all girls in the village, who sees him is not shy, and a pair of eyes can't wait to stick to him.
There were even several times when he followed Brother Lu up the mountain to chop wood, and he saw that there were many girls in the village who gave Brother Lu a good look.
Even his cousin Zhou Yuxia saw that Brother Lu's eyes were straight and he looked like a nymphomaniac.
It's just that his sister is a weirdo, every time she sees Brother Lu, it's like a cat seeing a mouse, and she keeps hiding.
Sometimes he even whispered in his ears that Brother Lu was not a good person or anything like that.
But he didn't pay much attention to it in the end, because Zhang Lanying at that time was completely led by the nose by the Zhou family, and she did whatever she was asked to do, without any sense of autonomy at all.
But now compared to before, she seems to be a different person, with opinions and brains, but he still can't guess what she thinks in her heart.

I always feel that his sister is becoming more and more invisible, no longer like before, everything is shown on her face, she is angry or when she speaks, she knows what she is thinking.
It feels like she's mysterious now, which makes him both happy and a little helpless.
Happily, she finally stopped listening to the instigation of the Zhou family, but helplessly, he was too a failure to be a younger brother, and she couldn't even guess what she was thinking. made him a little suspicious whether the two siblings were born in the same mother's womb.
Zhang Lanying ignored Zhang Xiaochi's pouting appearance, walked to the stove with the washed rice, saw that the water was boiling, scooped a few scoops of water and soaked the rice, and then poured the rice water before starting to put the washed rice into the pot.
Zhang Xiaochi was not idle, and when he saw Zhang Lanying cooking, he immediately squatted in front of the stove to add fire and wash vegetables.
Soon the two sisters and brothers cooked the meal, and stewed a white radish soup, although there was no meat in it, there were still a few drops of oil beads floating on the surface, which looked like it was also appetizing.
And Grandma Zhou saw that the two sisters and brothers had finished the meal, so she immediately asked the two sisters and brothers to go door to door to invite several uncles in the village to eat at home, afraid that if the time passed, they might have eaten at home.
