Married a Scholar

21-30

Chapter 21

　　▍Sure enough, I didn't read the wrong person.

　The village chief was still very dignified, especially since he was from the Xia clan and his son was also a scholar. Therefore, no matter how much Xia Wenze's mother wanted this good piece of land, she dared not say anything at this moment.

　　"Okay, let's all go. Don't you want to work on the land?"

　　The people around hurried away, and some even patted Xia Wenze on the shoulder before leaving.

　　The village chief looked at the two of them and said, "Don't worry about your mother. I'll go and tell the clan to let her be quiet for a few days. The most important thing is that you guys clean up the land as soon as possible."

　　"Thank you, fourth uncle." Xia Wenze thanked him.

　　"Okay, go have lunch. I see Ning has brought you lunch. Don't let it get cold." After saying that, the village chief left, sighing in his heart. It was getting harder and harder to figure out this Xia Wu's wife.

　　I never saw her like this before.

　　After everyone left, Meng Yining and Xia Wenze found a clean place to sit down and eat. "Why did your mother come here?"

　　"Maybe someone told her something." Xia Wenze said in a faint voice, picking up a piece of meat for Meng Yining with chopsticks, "Eat quickly."

　　Meng Yining saw that Xia Wenze didn't want to talk about that, but his personality was the kind of person who would solve problems when they encountered them. Although the village chief's words would make that side quiet down a little, looking at the look of Xia Wenze's mother today, she was not a person who would sit still. "What is Brother Ze's attitude towards that side?"

　　If there are still thoughts, then he doesn't care. As long as it doesn't offend him, he will pretend not to see it. Blood ties are the most wonderful thing. Even if you are very discouraged at the time, as long as you have even a little thought in your heart, you will choose to forgive after the other party repents and admits his mistakes. If he meddles too much, he might end up being a nobody.

　　If they have the same attitude as he has towards the Meng family, he will have plenty of ways to deal with the Xia family.

　　Xia Wen Ze paused while picking up food, "Do as written in the family division book." He has indeed been doing so in recent years. At first, he still had some expectations for family affection, but later, when his mother came home every now and then to ask for money instead of visiting him, he no longer had any expectations.

　　"In recent years, she has also come to me many times to ask for money on the pretext of being sick." At first, he gave her the money, thinking that it was not necessary to be fussy about family affection. Later, he did exactly what was written in the family division book, excluding the married third sister. He and his eldest and second brothers shared the medical expenses equally, and he would only give her the money after seeing the prescription for the medicine.

　　Meng Yining nodded to show that he understood.

　　After dinner, Meng Yining did not rush back, but put the bowls and chopsticks into the basket, put them on the roadside, and then went to the field to continue working.

　　When the sunset covered the village, the two of them had turned over nearly two of the three plots of land. Of course, Meng Yining did the most work.

　　Xia Wenze glanced at the loosened soil and frowned slightly.

　　Meng Yining was walking in front carrying a basket of vegetables, greeting people along the way. When he arrived at the door of his house, he noticed that Xia Wenzhe had been a little quiet all the way. He couldn't help but look sideways behind him, "What's wrong with you?" "Come

　　in first." Xia Wenzhe put the hoe at the door of the main room and followed Meng Yining into the kitchen. "Didn't you say we were going to Daqingshan tomorrow?"

　　"Yes." Meng Yining scooped some water for the two to wash their hands. "Brother Aze, what's the matter?"

　　"Yeah." Xia Wenzhe wiped their hands with a towel. "I thought I'd get some medicine to wrap my right wrist when I get back tomorrow." It would be fine if his hand wasn't healed, but now that his hand was obviously healed, there was no reason for Brother Ning to do more.

　　Meng Yining understood immediately and felt a little amused. He didn't expect Xia Wenze to look a bit chauvinistic, but he didn't care about it, so he nodded and agreed, "So do we have to make a confession?"

　　"Yes." Xia Wenze said to him, "Let's say that when we went to Daqing Mountain, we met an old man and a guard. The old man was a traveling doctor. He saw that my right hand was not flexible, and said that there was a fate, so he collected some medicine in Daqing Mountain that could cure my right wrist, and gave me a bottle of homemade scar cream." No one has been to Daqing Mountain, so they have the final say. Since

　　there is such a good opportunity, there is no need to wait until next time to find an excuse for the scar on his face. It can be solved once and for all, which is more convincing.

　　It's impossible for the traveling doctor to heal his wrist, but be stingy with his face.

　　"Okay." Meng Yining glanced at him and teased, "Didn't you see that, Brother Ze, you can tell this story so easily." He is indeed a scholar.

　　Xia Wenze was afraid that Meng Yining would misunderstand him as a liar, so he immediately said, "No, I have been thinking about it over and over again."

　　Meng Yining laughed and patted his shoulder, "I know." Didn't you see that he was joking?

　　Xia Wenze breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll go to the bamboo forest and get some dried bamboo leaves."

　　For dinner, the two of them had salted noodles. Meng Yining added bacon and bacon to the salt, cut a tomato, and beat two eggs. It tasted sour and spicy.

　　Xia Wenze was already very calm about anything Meng Yining took out.

　　It's not that he isn't curious, but he can wait until the day when Ning Ge'er is willing to tell him.

　　The salted noodles tasted great, and they both ate a big bowl.

　　"Hmm?" Before going to bed, the plane trader rang, and Meng Yining clicked it, and saw that the button for the apocalypse plane was flashing. He clicked it and saw that it was a message from Zhan Youxi for him [Are you there? I want to trade some food.]

　　[Good evening.] Meng Yining sent a video invitation to the other party.

　　Zhan Youxi looked a little tired, and when he saw him, he smiled [Good evening, did I disturb you.]

　　[No.] Meng Yining looked at the environment around him, [Are you outside?]

　　Zhan Youxi breathed a sigh of relief, [Well, our base has been breached, and we are running for our lives now. Meng Yining

　　was a little worried. [Are you safe now?] He knew that feeling. He was not in the Kyoto base at first. He was playing in another city with his second brother during the summer vacation when the apocalypse came. Later, he and his second brother were trapped in a small base there.

　　Fortunately, he and his second brother awakened their superpowers in the early stage, otherwise when the base was destroyed, they didn't know how difficult their life would be when they fled.
