90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 11 Acheng is very cold

 Xiao Cheng turned around and shouted: "Bai Lu."

A distant and deep voice came into the backyard.

Bai Lu ran out holding the eelgrass in her left hand and a small shovel in her right hand: "What's wrong?"

  Xiao Wei also revealed half of his head from behind the door.

When the guest saw the hostess of the house, he immediately came to his senses and stepped aside quickly: "I'm sorry for blocking you. I am the new neighbor who moved next door. I came to visit you. I didn't disturb you, right?"

"No, no, it's not too late for us to welcome you." Bai Lu temporarily put the goosebread and small shovel into the broken water tank, quickly washed her hands and went to greet her.

 “A Cheng is taciturn by nature and doesn’t like to talk, so don’t mind him.”

"No, no, no, I didn't say hello in advance." Bai Lu resolved the embarrassment with a few words, and the guest waved his hands repeatedly, and the smile on his face became much more comfortable.

She has a kind face and kind eyes. Even though she is middle-aged, her face is still rosy. Even the fine lines on her face have been rounded and softened a lot. She looks like a person who is easy to get along with.

 Xiao Wei went back to his room and continued to do his homework.

 Xiao Cheng was stunned for a moment by Bai Lu's natural and gentle word "A Cheng".

 Standing in place for a long time without moving.

When she looked back, Bai Lu had already led the guests into the house, poured tea and water, and greeted them politely.

The generous and decent way he treats others is completely different from the timid and cowardly person who bowed his head when meeting people before.

 “Brother Cheng.”

Xiao Dazhuang hurriedly ran over: "Haozi had a conflict with the owner of the sand and gravel pit and got into trouble."

Xiao Cheng frowned and walked out: "What's going on?"

Xiao Dazhuang said as he walked: "The owner of the sand and gravel field came back at noon. Hao Zi went to buy cigarettes and met him. I don't know what the two said. They quarreled. Hao Zi beat the owner of the sand and gravel field. They are going to sue him now. He is already sixteen I went to the bureau and negotiated with the people inside, but they refused to let go and asked Haozi to squat inside. "

Wang Hao has an impatient temper, but he will not conflict with others for no reason. I am afraid he may have been trapped this time.

The other party refused to let go, and it was at the critical moment of repayment. It was probably because the business deal in other places was not settled well, and he wanted to postpone the repayment period. If it was more sinister, he would extort a sum of money.

This was not the first time that Xiao Cheng met Lao Lai. He could roughly guess the cause and effect by just thinking about it.

Wang Hao's wife Chen Chunli is already pregnant. She is about a month older than Bai Lu, and her belly is already showing.

Hearing the news that Wang Hao had entered the bureau, he hurried over to find Xiao Cheng, holding his stomach.

“You must help! If Haozi goes in, what will happen to me and the child? How many times have I told him not to be so impulsive and reckless in doing things, but if he doesn’t listen, he doesn’t even know what he’s doing...”

Chen Chunli cursed and took out a small stack of money: "The family doesn't have much money left. His father suffered a stroke and is lying in bed. He still takes medicine every day. His mother is taken care of at home and has no job. I am pregnant and it is not convenient for me to go out to earn money."

Xiao Dazhuang was an honest man who didn't know what to say. He took the money and comforted her with a loud voice: "Don't worry, we are all brothers. Brother Cheng will not ignore her."

The money given by Chen Chunli was only about a hundred yuan. Xiao Cheng glanced at it casually and said nothing.

Those people in the Pingcheng Bureau are all very familiar with Xiao Cheng, and when they meet him, they don’t talk nonsense and directly tell the story of the cause.

 The inferred result was the same as he thought.

 In the end, Li Chengbin, the owner of the sand and gravel pit, was allowed to defer the repayment period for five days and pay a compensation of 500 yuan.

 There was not enough money, so the brothers had to pool it together.

Xiao Cheng distributed cigarettes to several people in the bureau, drank tea and chatted for a while, and waited for the top leader to come back and say hello before leaving. The guest here at Bailu is named Wen Xiuyun. He just moved here from the countryside at noon today.

Living in Liu Guangguan's house, Liu Guangguan sold the house and land overnight last night and moved out.

Wen Xiuyun’s husband sells fruit in the city and she buys it in the town. She has a son and a daughter in high school.

Liu Guangguan's house is worse than Xiao Cheng's house. It has mud bricks and black tiles. It leaks everywhere when it rains. The house is pitted, dilapidated, and extremely shabby.

"We want to demolish the old house and rebuild it into a small red brick building, but we don't know who is working on the construction site in the town. Your Xiao Cheng knows a lot of people. Please ask him to help and pay more attention." Wen Xiuyun said, giving Bailu the bamboo basket filled with fruits.

“There’s nothing good at home. There are just a lot of fruits, which are quite sweet. You can try them.”

There is a layer of sugar cane spread under the bamboo basket, which is piled with large dark red tangerines, ripe bright yellow star fruits, and bunches of large, round orange-yellow loquats.

This basket of fruits weighs several kilograms, and they are all carefully selected and the price is not cheap.

Bai Lu took three big tangerines with intention, smiled and declined gently: "We are all neighbors, so we should help each other. You don't have to be so polite. It's not difficult to find a construction team to build a house. I'll talk to Xiao Cheng later."

 Before Wen Xiuyun came, what he knew about Bai Lu's character was not as general as before.

 Sure enough, what you see with your eyes is belief, and what you hear with your ears is illusion.

She stood up and put the fruit basket on the table, and her words became much more friendly: "If you don't mind, you can call me fifth aunt from now on, and I will take care of you."

 After saying that, he strode out.

 Afraid that Bai Lu would return the fruit basket to her again.

Bai Lu quickly returned to her room, took a stack of bagged longevity cakes and a stack of chicken cakes, and chased them out to return the gift.

“Fifth Aunt, I bought some pancakes yesterday. They taste quite good. Take them back and try them.”

Wen Xiuyun had already reached the entrance of the courtyard. She was stuffed with two hands of pancakes. Bai Lu smiled brightly. She couldn't refuse, so she said "Hey" with a smile and took them home.

 After a while, Xiao Wei walked out with his schoolbag on his back. It was time to go to school.

Bai Lu put a big tangerine into his hand and touched her head: "What else do you like to eat? Go get it from the basket. It's so hard to go to school, so don't go hungry~"

Xiao Wei frowned and wanted to clap the hand on top of his head. The heavy fruit in his hand made him lose his mind again.

 Take out the money you put in last night from your pocket and give it to her, "cake money."

Last night, Xiao Wei opened his schoolbag and found that there were a lot of cakes inside, packed separately in bags.

He saw many classmates eating those pancakes, saying that their parents bought them and they could eat as much as they wanted.

 He has no parents, so he has no cake.

 But last night, he had one, and he couldn't help but eat one. It was delicious, just as he imagined.

Bai Lu said that the new schoolbag was bought with her brother's money, but the cake didn't say that.

Bai Lu didn't need to think about it, and she knew the little kid's little thoughts. She chuckled and said, "You can keep it for yourself to buy the things you like. If you need to buy anything in the future, you can tell me that your brother's money is with me." "

  Xiao Cheng paid for Xiao Wei’s schooling expenses, and Xiao Cheng also bought the rice, flour, grain and oil at home.

 School supplies such as homework books, paper and pens were given by his mother as lucky money during the previous Chinese New Year.

 It added up to a total of ten yuan. After using it up in the past three years, he picked up plastic bottles and sold them to buy schoolbags.
