Chapter 18 Arrogant Officer
It turns out that this woman’s surname is Sun, and her family lives at the entrance of the village.
Her man's surname is Wang, and everyone calls him Wang Er. He is a carpenter.
Su Xiaoxiao felt that Sun was actually quite generous and cheerful. She actually didn't know who Su Xiaoxiao was, but she always felt that she wanted to keep that distance from Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao actually didn't blame them. Although they were from the same village, they were strangers after all, so it was normal to be somewhat defensive.
The two children are older than those in Su Xiaoxiao's family. They are two sons. They are dressed in the same gray clothes and look very afraid of strangers.
Su Xiaoxiao was a very generous person. On the way, she took out the Changbai cake she bought for Dabao and Xiaobao and gave each of the two children a piece.
The two children had never seen such high-end cakes before. Although they looked at it eagerly and swallowed hard, they did not dare to reach out and pick it up.
The two kids kept looking at their mother, does that mean we can eat it?
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Mrs. Sun: "Sister Sun, let them eat next. It doesn't matter. We are all from the same village, and these pastries are also bought for our children."
Mrs. Sun was very grateful to Su Xiaoxiao and nodded. The two children quickly took the long white cake from Su Xiaoxiao's hand and wolfed it down.
Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao was very nice and friendly, Mrs. Sun lowered her guard and started chatting with Su Xiaoxiao on the road.
Su Xiaoxiao learned that it turned out that Sun and Wang Er were not from the village, but had fled from other places.
Because he was not accepted by the villagers, he has been living at the entrance of the village.
Most of the people in this village have the surname Liu, which is actually a bit xenophobic.
"Sister Sun, my surname is not Liu. Although I married into the old Liu family, now that my husband is dead, I still have my own surname. We will have more contacts in the future. What's wrong with us not being from this village? I think these villagers Even if their ideas are too old, they will never make progress and they will not get rich.”
Sun didn't expect that Su Xiaoxiao had a lot of sense in what she said, and she looked at Su Xiaoxiao in a different light.
Su Xiaoxiao sent Sun and the children to the door of their house in the village. Su Xiaoxiao took a look and found that Sun's adobe house was quite dilapidated. The window frames had fallen off, the window paper was not posted, and there was air leakage in some places.
There are only a few big cracks in the walls. Can people live in such a dangerous house?
Sun said they had just moved here not long ago and could only live here.
Su Xiaoxiao completely understood that Sun originally asked Su Xiaoxiao to go in and sit for a while, but Su Xiaoxiao refused.
"Sister Sun, I'll come over when I have time. There are two children at home waiting for me to go back and cook for them. If I have time, I will definitely come over as a guest."
Of course, Su Xiaoxiao had to refuse. It was somewhat not good to go to someone's house for the first time when they met.
The main reason is that she doesn't know much about Sun's personality.
Su Xiaoxiao drove the bullock cart back to her home. When she came to the door, she found that the yard was very quiet. Smoke was lingering from other houses, but there was no smoke in their chimney.
It's no wonder that the two children were still young and couldn't be asked to light a fire to cook. Su Xiaoxiao drove her family's ox cart into the yard. It looked like she had to build a cattle pen.
After she unloaded the things in the car, she opened the door and entered the house, which was very quiet.
Su Xiaoxiao had a bad feeling in her heart. Although the door was still locked, just like when she left, she was still very scared now, afraid that something would happen to the two children.
"Dabao, Xiaobao, I'm back!"
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao entered the room, she shouted to the two babies.
The room was very quiet. She quickly put down her things and ran towards the back room.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to think about the worst, but she was so afraid that her mother-in-law would come back and sell the two children to Ren Yazi while she was not at home.
She hurriedly opened the door to the back room, only to see a very warm scene.
The two children, Dabao and Xiaobao, were sleeping on the young officer's body.
Su Xiaoxiao relaxed now. Maybe she had been too nervous.
She walked over and wiped the sweat from the two children's heads with her hands. The young officer opened his eyes first.
"Are you back?" Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and replied, "Yes! Have you eaten?"
The young officer replied: "I had lunch for lunch, but I haven't eaten yet for dinner."
He wanted to move, but the two children held him down until he was a little honest.
Her arms were probably numb from pressure. Su Xiaoxiao saw that it was not possible and quickly picked up the two children. The young officer was still injured.
I was afraid of hurting the young officer because it happened to be dinner time.
"Dabao, Erbao, get up soon. See what delicious food I bought for you?"
The two babies opened their eyes. Although they were still sleepy, they could smell the fragrance of pastries immediately.
"What kind of cake is this? We have never seen it before."
Dabao asked excitedly as he looked at the two very delicate boxes.
"Such a beautiful box, what kind of pastries is inside?"
Su Xiaoxiao quickly opened it and showed it to them.
"This box is osmanthus cake, and this box is Changbai cake. You must have never eaten it, right?"
"No, we have never even seen this pastry."
Dabao said greedily.
"Come on, do you want to try it?"
With that said, Su Xiaoxiao gave each of the two children a piece of cake.
The children looked at the delicate icing on the Changbai cake. The milky white Changbai cake smelled so sweet that they drooled.
The children ate happily, and Su Xiaoxiao was also very happy.
"You two eat slowly, it's all yours."
The two babies clapped their hands happily.
She glanced at the young officer, took out a piece of osmanthus cake and asked him, "Do you want to eat it?"
The young officer's lips were still white and he looked unwell.
He slowly closed his eyes, as if he didn't care about everything in front of him. Su Xiaoxiao felt that he seemed a little too distant.
How come I saved his life and brought him back from the lifeline of death? Why do I always feel like I am not familiar with it?
Is this man too arrogant? But when Su Xiaoxiao thought about it, she couldn't blame her entirely for feeling unwell.
Besides, he is so handsome, so just be arrogant!
Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to go out alone to collect firewood and prepare to cook dinner.
When she was collecting dry firewood in the yard, she heard someone whispering behind her.
When she heard the voice coming from her neighbor Granny Wang's house, it seemed that Granny Wang and another woman were talking about her.
"Did you see that? This Su Xiaoxiao went to the market to sell the tiger skin this morning."
"Isn't that right? When I came back, I saw that she had bought a new bullock cart with a lot of things loaded on it. They are all delicious and useful. They must have been sold for a lot of money, right?"
