sleepwalking

Chapter 825

Chapter 825

Zhang Xu took out a bag of rice and a bag of noodles from the Sumeru ring.

They are all Lingmi, Lingmian.

He took out another ten catties of fish meat and ten catties of shrimp meat, found a plastic bag, and put them in.

Carrying the rice noodles on his shoulders and carrying the plastic bag in his hand, he walked towards Zhang Ming's family.

The village is very peaceful.Today is not a weekend, not a holiday, and not many people come to travel.

Seeing that the door of Zhang Ming's family was wide open, Zhang Xu walked in.

To Zhang Xu's surprise, Zhang Mingquan was at home.

Zhang Mingquan was sitting at a table in the yard, drinking tea with Zhang Yuanchen.

Seeing Zhang Xu, Zhang Mingquan stood up, "Xiao Xu, why are you free to visit Uncle today? You just came here, what are you doing with these things?"

Zhang Xu smiled, "Uncle Quan, Grandpa Chen, no, Grandpa and I just came back from the capital. I'll come and see you."

Zhang Xu continued, "Uncle Quan, here is a bag of rice, a bag of noodles, ten catties of shrimp meat, and ten catties of fish meat. After eating, if you still want to eat, you can come to my house to get it."

Zhang Ming was full of sighs.He also knew that Zhang Xu's family was prosperous.

The people who often come to visit are big people.

Those people just drive pretty good cars.

He felt that such a Zhang Xu, Zhang Yuanli, might not be willing to associate with him as before.

Therefore, during that time, he rarely went to Zhang Xu's house.

Two years ago, Zhang Yuanli went to the capital.

Although he didn't know why Zhang Yuanli went to the capital, Zhang Mingquan knew that Zhang Yuanli was in trouble.

I regret that I didn't go to Zhang Xu's house often to help Zhang Yuanli.

A few days ago, he was very happy to know that Zhang Yuanli and Zhang Xu had come back. He was planning to visit the place in the next two days, but he did not expect Zhang Xu to come and bring so many things with him.

Zhang Mingquan is happy.

Finally, this nephew still remembers himself.

He remembered how delicious the fish Zhang Xu brought last time was.

Zhang Mingquan was about to take the things, but Zhang Xu said, "Uncle, I'll put them in the kitchen for you."

Zhang Mingquan nodded and took Zhang Xu to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Zhang Xu put down his things.

Looking at the kitchen, Zhang Xu felt a little strange. The kitchen was clean, and it looked like it hadn't been fired for several days.

Seeing Zhang Xu's question, Zhang Mingquan smiled bitterly, "Your aunt is not at home these days. Your grandpa Chen and I just ate something to get rid of it, and didn't start a fire."

Zhang Xu nodded, "Oh. But the fish and shrimp should be eaten as soon as possible."

"Uncle knows."

Zhang Mingquan took Zhang Xu and sat down at the table in the yard.

Zhang Yuanchen also had a frowning expression.

Zhang Xu hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should ask.

Seeing Zhang Xu's appearance, Zhang Mingquan spoke up.

Zhang Xu's aunt, Zhang Mingquan's wife Liu Xiaohui, was called back by her family.

Zhang Xu knew that Liu Xiaohui's natal family, strictly speaking, was not Liu Xiaohui's natal family.

Liu Xiaohui's mother died early, and Liu Xiaohui's father got married to a widow.

The widow brought a boy, older than Liu Xiaohui.

Later, not long after Liu Xiaohui got married, her father died.

Only the widow and the unrelated brother remained.

The two occupied Liu Xiaohui's house and fields.

Logically speaking, there should be a share of Liu Xiaohui, and it is even reasonable to say that it all belongs to Liu Xiaohui.

After all, it was all left by Liu Xiaohui's father.

However, Liu Xiaohui didn't care.Even during the holidays, according to the custom, I went to visit my stepmother and the brother who was not related by blood.

Every time I go to visit, the gifts I bring are not thin at all.

Unexpectedly, a few months ago, Liu Xiaohui's stepmother, Chang Min, was sick, so she called and asked Liu Xiaohui to take care of her.

Liu Xiaohui went.

In fact, it is not a serious disease, it is cholecystitis, and it will be fine if it is removed.

Liu Xiaohui didn't dislike her at all, and took care of her for more than a month.

I came back some time ago.

However, a few days ago, Liu Xiaohui was called again.

At this time, the three heard footsteps.

I saw Liu Xiaohui came back with an angry expression on his face.

Zhang Xu got up quickly, "Auntie, you are back."

Seeing Zhang Xu, Liu Xiaohui smiled and said, "I'm back. Alas, my aunt is not at home, so she didn't even cook you a meal. Look, alas, stop talking, sit down first, my aunt will go and cook it for you now." Let’s go eat. Eat at home at noon.”

He looked at Zhang Mingquan and Zhang Yuanchen again, "Dad, the head of the house, I'm going to cook right now."

Zhang Mingquan and Zhang Yuanchen nodded.

When Zhang Xu was a child, he often ate at Zhang Ming's family.In my memory, this aunt cooks very delicious food.

Every time I cook something good, I will give him more to eat.

However, today, Zhang Xu saw that something was wrong with Liu Xiaohui's face, and he didn't want to eat at Zhang Ming's family.

Zhang Xu quickly said, "Auntie, I'm not busy, I'll go home and eat later."

Zhang Mingquan spoke, "Xiao Xu, let's have a meal at home."

Then, Zhang Mingquan turned to look at Liu Xiaohui, "What's wrong with you? You seem unhappy."

Zhang Yuanchen and Zhang Xu all looked at Liu Xiaohui.

Liu Xiaohui said, "It's really deceiving. I went to cook and serve people. Even the work in the field was left to me. She said today that it is not easy to support me, so I put her in the hospital and see a doctor. All the expenses were paid for.”

"What else to say, our husband and wife have money, and we don't care about the money. It's the biological mother, so it doesn't make sense. It's not like I don't have a son."

Zhang Xu, Zhang Mingquan, and Zhang Yuanchen all knew that the "she" Liu Xiaohui referred to was her stepmother.

Zhang Mingquan sneered, "I told you a long time ago, stay away from them. You didn't listen. Leave your own family affairs behind and take care of her. It's not settled yet. People are so greedy."

Zhang Yuanchen came out to smooth things over, "Okay, don't talk about your wife. Your daughter-in-law is also kind. Okay, Xiaohui, let Xiaoxu eat at home."

Liu Xiaohui smiled, "Okay, Dad, Mingquan, I'll make a meal right now."

Liu Xiaohui went to cook.

Zhang Xu, Zhang Mingquan, and Zhang Yuanchen began to gossip.

It's nothing more than a matter in the village, whose family has recently married a new wife, whose son has gone out to earn money, who is getting old...

Zhang Xu listened, interjecting from time to time to ask questions.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps was suddenly heard.

I saw a wife in a red coat, a strong man in her 40s, walking in.

Seeing these two people, Zhang Yuanli and Zhang Ming all had a bad look on their faces.

Sure enough, when the two entered Zhang's courtyard, the wife said loudly, "Zhang Mingquan, Zhang Yuanchen, don't you care about your wife?"

Zhang Mingquan didn't speak, and looked at the two of them coldly.

Zhang Yuanchen stood up, "Mother-in-law, what's the matter?"

Zhang Xu knew that this wife was Liu Xiaohui's stepmother Chang Min.

And the one next to him, without guessing, is Chang Min's son Deng Qiang.
