Chapter 107 It’s not too hot either
Lu Nanzhou's voice was calm when he spoke, and in front of everyone, he directly denied that Zhou Cuiping's statement about not paying back the money was false.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Cuiping's disbelieving voice sounded in his ears, and she roared:
"Impossible, this is impossible, you must be quibbling, tell me the truth quickly!"
The people around were whispering as they looked at this. There were a few older people in the crowd who had watched Lu Nanzhou grow up and spoke up:
"Let me just say, we still don't know what kind of temper this kid Xiao Lu is."
"That's right, Aunt Zhou, this matter is your fault. You don't understand the truth of the matter, how can you openly spread rumors!"
"Yes, this person has explained it to you, why don't you believe it? Could it be that you don't want to see their children?"
Zhou Cuiping's face turned redder and redder after being talked about by everyone, and she felt extremely embarrassed.
But at this time, even if Lu Nanzhou denied it, she still felt that Lu Nanzhou was lying.
But now that so many people are watching here, this matter was revealed by Lu Nanzhou in a few words, and Zhou Cuiping will no longer have her face.
So she raised her head and retorted loudly:
"Impossible, Lu Nanzhou must be lying!"
"Lu Nanzhou's grandma told me this personally. How could it be false!"
As soon as Zhou Cuiping finished speaking, the crowd fell silent for a moment.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Even Mother Lu frowned, after all, this family's ugliness should not be exposed to the public.
Zhou Cuiping mentioned this matter so carelessly. In the future, the internal conflicts of the Lu family may be discussed openly.
Although the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law between her and Li Cuiqing has lasted for more than a day or two, it is still their family matter after all.
Xu Nan was standing aside. Originally, she was a little stunned when she heard Zhou Cuiping say that Lu Nanzhou would not repay the money he owed. After all, she, a daughter-in-law, didn't even know about such a big matter.
So where did Zhou Cuiping hear this?
It wasn't until Zhou Cuiping confessed Li Cuiqing that Xu Nan looked stunned and suddenly remembered something.
She looked at Lu Nanzhou with embarrassment, her mouth opened and closed, her face full of guilt.
It's all Zhao Yi's bad idea, but you can't blame him for this.
After all, if he hadn't thought of such a way, I'm afraid Li Cuiqing and the others wouldn't have left so neatly.
When Lu Nanzhou glanced at Xu Nan from the corner of his eyes, he saw that she was hesitant to speak. He felt his forehead twitch and he had a bad suspicion in his heart.
The two were very close, and Xu Nan stretched out his hand to tug at the corner of Lu Nanzhou's clothes:
"We'll talk about it when we get home... we'll talk about it when we get home..."
Xu Nan's voice became weaker and weaker, with obvious guilt in his voice.
Lu Nanzhou: “…”
After all, he never expected that this incident would come from Xu Nan.
But if this is the case, there must be a reason.
After all, Xu Nan would not throw dirty water on him for no reason.
…
Back home, Mother Lu first held Xu Nan in her hands and gave her a rare treat.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for so long, and Mother Lu missed the two of them very much.
Xu Nan hesitated for a long time, and under Lu Nanzhou's probing eyes, he bravely told the truth:
"On the day I finished setting up the stall, I happened to meet my second uncle and his family coming over."
"I happened to meet Zhao Yi, and he said he had a good idea, but who would have thought that he had such an idea."
Not only that, but he accidentally made things worse.
After all, who would have thought that after Li Cuiqing returned to her hometown, not only would she not be ashamed, but she would go out and publicize it to others.
I'm afraid if they had come back a few days later, Lu Nanzhou's reputation would have been ruined by her.
The more Xu Nan thought about it, the more frightened he became. When he looked up at Mother Lu and Lu Nanzhou, his eyes dodged, fearing that they would blame him.
After all, in the final analysis, the origin of what happened today originated from her.
If she had stopped Zhao Yi at that time, what happened today would not have happened.
Xu Nan didn't dare to raise his head and glanced at Lu Nanzhou and Lu's mother. As soon as his eyes met the two of them, he was stunned.
She saw Lu Nanzhou and Mother Lu looking at her with smiles on their faces. Xu Nan thought they would be angry, especially Lu Nanzhou.
Seeing her look like that, Mother Lu stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, smiling and scolding:
"Look at how cowardly you are. I don't know other people, but your second uncle's family, to put it bluntly, I know what they are thinking even if they fart."
"Didn't Feng Tian arrange a place for them to live? Later, Feng Tian was arrested because of you."
"If they go to your house again, it means they have no place to live, so they come to you to ask for money or to have food and drink."
"After all, you have to thank Zhao Yi, thanks to him, otherwise you would have been killed by that scoundrel by yourself."
When talking about Lu Nanzhou's second uncle's family, the disgust and disgust on Mother Lu's face were undisguised.
After finishing speaking, she said with a comforting tone:
"Okay, don't blame yourself. You're just being talked about behind your back by the villagers."
"Lu Nanzhou is such a big man, what will happen if someone pokes him in the back a few times?"
"Look what time it is. I promised to go to the market to buy vegetables and prepare delicious food for you, but I was delayed by that lady Zhou Cuiping."
"Just in time to say that you are back, you go shopping with mom to buy groceries."
After saying that, she pulled Xu Nan and walked out. Xu Nan's eyes met Lu Nanzhou's. She looked at Lu Nanzhou with an embarrassed look on her face. After thinking about it, she decisively packed up and ran away with Lu's mother.
She didn't want to stay in this house for a second.
…
In her last life, Xu Nan and her grandma also attended a big market in the village. Fairs in rural areas usually have fixed dates.
Like in my previous life, the market at Grandma Xu Nan's house was only open on the 8th, 18th, and 28th, but not at other times.
It was already late when Mother Lu and Xu Nan arrived. After all, Mother Lu had a fight with Zhou Cuiping at that time, which wasted a lot of time.
It is now approaching noon, and many small vendors have closed their stalls and are preparing to leave.
Mother Lu took Xu Nan and hurriedly bought a few fresh-looking vegetables and hurried back home.
It was almost half past ten when we got home. Father Lu had already arrived home after delivering the tricycle.
At this time, Zheng and Lu Nanzhou were outside, setting up an iron pot and filling it with firewood. The pot was filled with water, which was already heated.
Seeing Lu's mother and Xu Nan come back, Lu's father hurriedly stood up from the bench, took the large and small parcels from their hands, and said to Xu Nan:
"The water has been boiled. You and Nanzhou have been on the train for several nights. Later, let Nanzhou find a basin and bring some hot water to wash up and change clothes."
Father Lu frowned and glanced back and forth between the two of them.
On a day of more than 20 degrees, these two children were actually wearing woolen sweaters and didn't feel too hot.
