butcher's little man

Chapter 37 Arrived Home

Soon, one pig was sold out, and the people in front of the stall were all satisfied and left.When Tian Xiaoman thought that the stall could be closed, an old grandma ran over from there, looked at the empty chopping board, and sighed in disappointment, "Boy Li, didn't you agree to save half a pig's head for me today?" Why? Why are they all sold out!"

Li Wenxuan smiled, took out half a pig's head from under the chopping board as if by magic, threaded it through a straw rope, and handed it to the old grandma, "Grandma Zhou, how could I not remember what you told me?" ? I remember that Big Brother Zhou likes the pork head you braised for him, so it’s great to drink with it!"

Grandma Zhou beamed with joy instantly, "I told you that I can rest assured that you can do things, Li Xiaozi, right? You talk about it every day! By the way, it's still 25 copper coins."

Li Wenxuan nodded, and Grandma Zhou took out a bunch of copper plates, and counted 25 for him.Li Wenxuan lowered his head to look in the frame, and gave a piece of pig's tail to Grandma Zhou, "I heard that uncle likes to eat pig's tail, take it back and make him happy too!"

"Oh, then I thank you for him, it's hard for you to remember him!" Aunt Zhou looked cheerfully, looked at Tian Xiaoman, and changed the subject, "Is this your little husband who has never been married? What? How handsome is he?"

"Grandma Zhou, this is Xiao Man, Xiao Man, he is Grandma Zhou, you can just call him Grandma Zhou."

"Hello, Grandma Zhou!" Tian Xiaoman yelled obediently, and got a big face from Grandma Zhou. Grandma Zhou wanted to rush back to marinate the pig's head, so she asked them to go to his house to play next time, and then left .

After he left, Tian Xiaoman asked Li Wenxuan, "Is this grandma your relative?"

Li Wenxuan shook his head, Tian Xiaoman was very puzzled, since he was not a relative, why did he take such good care of him?Keep things and give things away!

Li Wenxuan explained to him, "This granny has a son named Zhou Da. He is a headhunter in our county. I made friends with him by chance, so I need to take more care of him."

"Wow, you are an official in the county!" Tian Xiaoman saw the official's family for the first time, and suddenly felt that the grandma's figure grew taller, "Then why do you still charge money? That's the catcher food!"

As an ordinary citizen, Tian Xiaoman's ancestors have been farmers for eight generations, and he has a natural awe for officials. If he wants to please them, wouldn't it be better not to charge them?

Li Wenxuan explained, "Collecting money is a must. You can't feed their appetites and take it for granted. In that case, they will only think you are easy to bully, and they won't have any relationship with you. Look at it now, although I I didn’t give him free money, but I often give him something, and they think they have taken advantage of it, so they will naturally make friends with me.”

Tian Xiaoman listened to Li Wenxuan's words with his eyes wide open, thinking he was so treacherous! "You have a lot of mind, you won't use it on me in the future, will you?"

"How dare I? Xiaoman, I am sincere to you!" Li Wenxuan immediately expressed his opinion.

"Let's talk about it later, by the way, can we go?" Tian Xiaoman asked, he always wants to go, why not go right away, and he won't want to wait for a while.

"Okay," Li Wenxuan handed over the task of closing the shop to Niu Jin, took Tian Xiaoman with him and went out.

Riding on the horse, Tian Xiaoman looked at the unfamiliar scenery around him, and still felt a little uneasy, fearing that his poor performance would make Li Wenxuan's mother unhappy, and the big guys around them didn't seem to like him very much.

But it's useless to think so much now, Tian Xiaoman tried his best to cheer himself up, and focused his attention on the distant scenery.In fact, Li Wenxuan has been paying attention to Tian Xiaoman all the time. Although he feels sorry for his entanglement, Xiaoman is destined to go to their house. Now get used to it, so that he won't be so homesick when he gets married.After seeing Tian Xiaoman relieved, Li Wenxuan was also very happy.

No matter how long the road is, it will be finished soon. In a blink of an eye, we will reach the willow tree slope. Tian Xiaoman saw many willow trees at the entrance of the village, but now the leaves are all yellow, which is incomparable with that in spring.Tian Xiaoman thought about it, and still felt that their Xingtian Village was better. After all, apricots are so delicious, and willows are useless at all!

Li Wenxuan's house is a little bit above Liushupo. Behind the house is a large bamboo forest. There is a small road leading directly to the mountain. Because Grandfather Li is a hunter, the convenience of going up the mountain is the most important thing.

The courtyard of Li Wenxuan's house is quite large, with high walls surrounding the house. They live at the foot of the mountain. In winter, wild animals are hungry, and it is common for them to come down to look for food. If there is no protection from the high courtyard walls, they would have been dragged gone.

Li Wenxuan got off his horse and pushed open the courtyard door, and helped Tian Xiaoman off the horse, then led the horse and walked in, "Xiaoman, come in quickly!" Li Wenxuan put the horse into the stable, seeing that Tian Xiaoman was still standing there, Then he went to lead him.

The two of them had just walked to the front of the main room when Li Amu heard the sound, and he saw the brother who was following Li Wenxuan at a glance.Round face, flushed, looks healthy.The pregnancy mole is also bright red, presumably you will be able to hold a golden grandson after you get married!Neither tall nor short, standing behind his son is just right!Li Amu looked more and more satisfied, and this brother's appearance was also the kind that a man would like. He said how his son would stay away from home all day after he got engaged!

"This is Xiaoman, right? I'm Wenxuan's Amu, you can just call me Amu!" Li Amu walked over and took Tian Xiaoman's hand from Li Wenxuan's, "Hurry up, come in and sit down!"

When Tian Xiaoman first saw Li Amu, his whole body froze. He wanted to smile, but he couldn't move the corners of his mouth. Ammies don't quite look like that.

Li Amu pulled Tian Xiaoman's hand and felt his stiffness. He thought, he is an honest boy after all, and he doesn't know how those people can preach so badly.Tian Xiaoman gradually relaxed in Li Amu's kind smile, and called out sweetly, "Hello, Amu!"

Li Amu was full of smiles. Although it was not the first time he had heard that his husband was called Amu, his eldest son was married to an official brother. Although he was respectful, he just couldn't get along. So it is enough for the two to respect each other as guests.But this brother, like him, is a simple farmer brother. Li Amu actually regrets that she did not give birth to a caring brother. Looking at Xiaoman's appearance now, she should be able to accompany him.

Li Wenxuan saw his mother as if he didn't see him, smiled and walked in, the more his mother liked Tian Xiaoman, the happier he was!

Li Amu and Tian Xiaoman had a conversation, mainly Li Amu asked Tian Xiaoman for an answer, which can be regarded as speculative.Tian Xiaoman suddenly remembered his mother's explanation, so he took the basket that Li Wenxuan was carrying for him, and handed it to Li's mother, "Em, this is what my mother asked me to give to you, he said I was the first Once at the door."

Li Amu took the basket and took a look. Inside it was a catty of frosting sugar, half a catty of preserved fruit, a jar of honey, and some homemade dried vegetables. He thought to himself, this in-law is a real person!Generally, only men are seen to carry things to their brother's house, but few brothers can carry things back to their in-laws' house.

He put down the basket, and smiled more sincerely, "Thank you, my in-laws, for spending so much money! Xiaoman, are you hungry? Emma will cook right away! By the way, Emma will clean up the room for you too." Yes, I will ask Wenxuan to take you to see it!"

Tian Xiaoman followed Li Wenxuan obediently, and walked to the guest room.This guest room is next to Li Wenxuan's bedroom, and Li Amu has thought very hard! Tian Xiaoman walked into the bedroom, and saw that it was very clean. The quilt was spread on the bed, and it smelled fragrant, like sunshine.In the bedroom, there are everything my brother needs, and there are some new clothes.Tian Xiaoman's heart finally settled down, he knew that Li Amu sincerely welcomed him.

Over there, Li Wenxuan was opening the cabinet and was about to put Tian Xiaoman's clothes in there. Tian Xiaoman came back to his senses and immediately rushed to snatch it back, but it was a bit late, Li Wenxuan had already seen some of the clothes on it, He stared blankly at Tian Xiaoman's flushed face, and suddenly realized that he couldn't help playing Tian Xiaoman's appearance in these clothes in his mind, then he covered his nose and rushed out without saying a word.

Tian Xiaoman looked at his back for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter. Li Wenxuan seemed to have a nosebleed, but he thought about the reason for his nosebleed again, so he remained silent, and only quietly hung up the clothes.

After hanging up his clothes, Tian Xiaoman sat for a while. Before Li Wenxuan came over, he went out to look for him. When he walked through a room, he suddenly heard the soft cry of a child coming from inside.Tian Xiaoman looked around and found that there was neither Li Amu nor Li Wenxuan, and the crying inside was getting louder and louder, so he couldn't hold back his curiosity and went in.

I saw a white and tender little brother lying on the bed, sleeping under the quilt, with his eyes open, crying loudly with his mouth open, tears rolling down his chubby cheeks, which made people feel distressed.

Tian Xiaoman walked over and asked him softly what's wrong.Hearing the voice, the brother opened his eyes, stretched out his hands towards Tian Xiaoman, and cried, "Hold! Hurry up!"

Tian Xiaoman understood the last word, and asked him to hold him, so he carried him out of the bed.But he couldn't understand the last word again, what's going on, what are you going to do?

As soon as Le Geer was hugged by him, he pointed out his fingers, asking him to carry him out. Tian Xiaoman carried him to the yard, and Le Geer yelled, "Pee!" He pointed to the corner, that There is a big tree where his mother usually hugs him to urinate.

Tian Xiaoman finally understood, he thought he was more popular with children, but he didn't expect that it was because he was so anxious to urinate!He immediately ran towards the tree with his brother in his arms, and helped him pee.Brother Le finally breathed a sigh of relief after going to the toilet.Although he is still naive, he knows that he can't pee on the bed, and Mammy will shame him.

When Tian Xiaoman came out with Brother Le in his arms, Li Amu had already heard the movement in the kitchen, but he wanted to see what Tian Xiaoman would do, and now he was satisfied, even if his family was away, Tian Xiaoman would not ignore Le brothers.He turned around and went back to the kitchen, letting Tian Xiaoman and Le Geer spend time together.

After Going to the toilet, Brother Le was interested in seeing who was holding him, but when he looked back, it was someone he didn't know. He opened his mouth and wanted to cry again, and he was still struggling to get off Tian Xiaoman's body.

Tian Xiaoman didn't dare to let him down, he didn't wear shoes yet, and he didn't have much clothes on, but if he didn't let him go, he was about to cry again. When he was in trouble, Li Amu poked her head out from the kitchen, "Xiaoman, , I'm busy right now, can you help me put Geer Le's clothes on? Just put them on the bed where he sleeps."

Tian Xiaoman was helpless, and after agreeing, he went back to the room just now with a little loach-like Le Geer in his arms.Le Geer just heard his nanny talk to Tian Xiaoman, knowing that he is an acquaintance, he was a little less afraid, but still looked at him vigilantly.As soon as he was put on the bed, he immediately burrowed into the quilt by himself, poked out only two eyes, and asked vaguely, "Who is it!"

Tian Xiaoman vaguely heard what he was saying, but didn't understand, so he could only coax him, "Brother Le, be good, Mammy is cooking now, can I help you get dressed?"

Brother Le shook his head and asked again, "Yes! Who!"

Now Tian Xiaoman heard clearly, so he was asking who he is!So what should he say?After thinking about it, he said, "I am your uncle's husband, am I your aunt?"

Brother Le didn't quite understand, he only heard the word uncle, and he shouted suspiciously, "Piggy?" He seemed to be wondering, why did uncle become like this?

Tian Xiaoman was very helpless, where did Li Wenxuan go?Why haven't you come back yet!He can't communicate with babies at all!
