Chapter 452: Hiding Identity
That is to say, Old Man Liu is the village chief. Only by building a house that is spacious enough can he free up so many empty rooms. Seeing that there is not enough room for them, Old Man Liu originally planned to go to the village to arrange a few more empty rooms, but Mr. Su Only gave up after refusing.
Mr. Su also had safety concerns. After all, it was an extraordinary period, not to mention their identities were sensitive. It would be safer for everyone to live together to avoid being taken advantage of.
"Since Brother Su said so, I won't force you. If you need anything, just say it. It's rare for outsiders to come to our village a few times throughout the year. I'm glad you can come!" Old man Liu said with a smile. After all, He is the village chief and has more knowledge than the ordinary villagers. He knows that these noble people have many taboos when doing things outside, so he will not force himself when Master Su refuses.
"Okay, I'll tell you if you need anything. Thank you, brother." Mr. Su liked a straightforward person like Old Man Liu, so he agreed with a smile.
"Then you guys rest first. You must be tired after traveling for so long. I won't disturb you, old man." After saying that, Old Man Liu closed the door and went out, then went to help the servants of the Su family settle down. He saw outside his yard There were many people who were poking their heads and walking out.
"Go, go, go, what are you doing around here? I've never seen him, what's there to see? It's just a joke!" Old man Liu said with the authority of the village chief, but everyone in the village and the old village chief I'm used to joking, I'm not scared at all
"Village Chief, it's rare that there are so many noble people in the village. We rarely see them on weekdays, but we can't come over to take a look and see the excitement!"
"Yes, these nobles are so handsome. The masters all look like the characters in the New Year pictures. No, they look more noble than the characters in the New Year pictures, especially the three little ones. "Baby, I have never seen a prettier baby. He is white, plump and plump. He is so happy to look at." said an old aunt.
Although the village chief has grandchildren at home, he still cares about the three beautiful children. When someone mentioned them, he said: "That's not true. Children from rich families are not comparable to children from the countryside. They are expensive and special." He knows etiquette, such a small person is really well-educated.”
"But no, children raised by wealthy families are just different."
"Okay, okay, don't hang around here. It's still raining, and you don't have to worry about getting wet. Life is getting more and more difficult these days. Anyone who has the spare money to pay for medical treatment should go back. "The village chief chatted for a while and started to drive people away again. Everyone knew that what the village chief said was reasonable, and most of them dispersed.
After helping everyone get settled, the old village chief was also very tired. The main reason was that the village chief was too honest and put in a lot of effort in helping. At such an old age, he couldn't stand being tired.
When the village chief returned to the house, he saw his daughter-in-law walking over, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
The son was serving as a soldier outside, and the old woman left early. The daughter-in-law was taking care of everything at home. The village chief showed more concern and tolerance for this hard-working daughter-in-law. Seeing his daughter-in-law acting like this, he quickly asked : "Damn tiger, if something happens, if you have any embarrassing issues, just tell me and I will try my best to help you."
Seeing that her father-in-law was so tolerant to her, Mrs. Liu Huang felt grateful, but the embarrassment on her face did not diminish. This was not her own business, otherwise she would not be so embarrassed: "Father-in-law, I want a lot of dinner tonight. Being those guests?”
"Of course, how can we neglect our guests!" Old Man Liu said without thinking. He is a hospitable person, not to mention the head of a village.
"But father-in-law, there are so many people, and the food at home is just enough to feed our family. If we use it to entertain guests, we will have a hard time in the future. It doesn't matter that I am an adult. If I am hungry, I will be hungry. But at home, There are two children, and the children's father is away. I have to take good care of the two children so that they can be worthy of their father. "Liu Huang is a typical good woman and wife, and she never thinks about herself.
When Old Man Liu heard what Mrs. Liu Huang said, he knew why his daughter-in-law was in such trouble just now. He felt a little ashamed. He thought it was too simple. He had already left the family affairs to his daughter-in-law, so he didn't have to worry about anything. , the daughter-in-law has arranged food and supplies. Even in such troubled times, when no one has enough to eat, the daughter-in-law did not let him and his grandson go hungry, but they lived a little tight. Look again Looking at the families in the village, none of them live like this. These are not for nothing, they are the result of the daughter-in-law's plan to save money carefully.
"Damn Huzi, I'm sorry. I didn't think everything through. I was only happy for the moment and didn't think much about my family. It's just that the guests stayed at home. It can't be justified that I didn't even entertain them." Old man Liu was a little agitated. Said with shame
Mrs. Liu Huang didn't know her father-in-law's temperament. He was a very lenient person. She had never felt sorry for her in all the years she had been married to the Liu family. She was just a little looser and too lenient in her treatment of others. It wouldn't have been such a big problem in the past. With such conditions at home, I still have such sad thoughts.
After all, Mrs. Liu Huang couldn't blame her father-in-law, so she just sighed: "My father-in-law said this for the same reason. It's just that there is not much food at home, otherwise my daughter-in-law would have to cook a pot of porridge. The most we can do is this, look. Those guests are all well-dressed, and they don’t have to worry about food and drink. If they don’t have enough to eat, they have to deal with it themselves.”
Originally, he had done something wrong, but now it is very rare for his daughter-in-law to do this. Old man Liu nodded quickly and agreed: "This is the reason, this is the reason, just do it. This year is not good. We are doing our best to do this, and I believe our customers will understand our difficulties and won’t be offended.”
Mrs. Liu Huang was relieved to hear what her father-in-law said. Fortunately, her father-in-law was sensible. Otherwise, if she really insisted, she, as a daughter-in-law, would have no choice but to obey.
"My wife is going to cook dinner right now. Even though it's just porridge, so many people need a big pot, so we have to prepare it early." Mrs. Liu Huang said and was about to go out. Someone happened to be looking for her again outside. Old man Liu listened. The voice of a guest came out quickly, but it turned out to be the two maids who were following Mrs. Su. In order to hide her identity, Su Wenyue claimed to be the daughter-in-law of Master Su and his wife outside. After all, she had three other maids with her. child.
"What's the matter with the two girls?" Mrs. Liu Huang said politely when she saw Shuqin and Shuxiang.
"There is indeed something to worry about. That's it. We want to use your kitchen in the evening. After traveling for so long, we are a little tired of eating dry food and want to make a warm meal." Shuqin smiled. Said, Shuxiang followed Shuqin without interrupting. After what happened last time and being taught a lesson by Su Wenyue, Shuxiang also understood where he went wrong and became much more prudent in his work.
