Chapter 227
Song Xiaoe pretended not to care and changed the subject.

"Xiao Lan, I heard that your marriage with the Song family has been completely withdrawn. Is it because that kid from the Song family got hurt?"

While talking, he winked at Lan Xi, and when he talked about Song Wen's injury, he even smiled so much that he showed his big yellow teeth.

Lan Xi was serious, "The Song family knew they couldn't afford to delay our family, so they voluntarily divorced."

Even though it was not normal for the Song family to withdraw their marriage, since they gave superficial reasons, Lan Xi just said that it was not her own reason, and it just washed away her previous bad reputation.

Song Xiao'e didn't let Lan Xi go, she chattered and wanted to get more words out of Lan Xi's mouth, but Lan Xi didn't let her do so.

Song Xiao'e didn't give up either, and finally approached Lan Xi and whispered, "That kid from the Song family likes men, how did you know?"

After speaking, she still looked at Lan Xi with a gossipy face, but Lan Xi frowned, not because of gossip, but because the aunt was too close to talk, but because of her bad breath, the smell was too strong when she spoke close.

Lan Xi moved away quietly, but didn't say anything, leaving only a comprehensible look in her eyes.

I don't know what Song Xiao'e understood from this, she covered her mouth and smiled a little wretchedly, "I understand, I understand everything!"

We don't know what she understood, so she turned around and left after speaking. Seeing how excited she was, she probably went to gossip with the woman next to her.

Lan Xi was not surprised that gossip about the Song family had already started to spread in the village. Lan Xi never underestimated the speed at which gossip spread. What happened in Songliu Village yesterday afternoon spread to Zhangjia Village today.

It happened to let the Song family have a taste of rumors.

Lan Xi continued to work, and within an hour, she finished picking out the work assigned to her, and then Lan Xi went to hand in the work. When Li Caixia, the team leader of Zhangjia Village who assigned the work, saw Lan Xi's results, she had nothing to say. It was recorded in the notebook that Lan Xi put the tools back in the warehouse, and then he could start work.

The other women next to her saw Lan Xi leaving lightly, and they were jealous. They also wanted to get off work early, but their strength did not allow it.

Lan Xi didn't go home directly, but walked to a small road, walked for nearly 10 minutes, and came to a small river.

This is not owned by the public, but a deserted small river. The river is not deep now. Lan Xi also found it based on the memory of the original owner. This is a place where many children play.

Lan Xi also came to check this time to see if there was anything inside, but let alone, there were indeed fish.

Lan Xi found a thick branch nearby, took off her shoes, flattened her trouser legs, and slowly put her feet into the river.

In the weather in May, the highest temperature can reach more than 20 degrees, but the river water is still a bit cold, and Lan Xi doesn't care about it, the temptation of fish is too great.

It was still early, so there was no one around. Lan Xi just held the branches in his hands and walked around in the river. The water in the river was clear enough without any pollution, and he could basically see the bottom at a glance.

Lan Xi moved cautiously, suddenly a carp the size of a palm came into Lan Xi's sight, Lan Xi raised the branch in his hand, inserted it suddenly, and then raised the branch, and there was another carp with its tail swinging around, Lan Xi reckoned It also weighs half a catty, which is not bad.

Lan Xi continued her efforts and continued her fishing journey, and finally caught three fish, which added up to more than a catty.

Lan Xi hurried home before she got off work, otherwise it would be one thing to be seen by others, although this thing is not from the public, but if it is seen by such narrow-minded people, it will cause trouble for nothing.

Lan Xi walked home on a remote path. Zhang's house was in the northwest of the village, and there were not too many residents around, so he didn't meet anyone.

When Lan Xi returned home, the fish was already dead. Lan Xi put it in the yard, washed her hands and feet, washed the towel and put it on the sun, and then started to clean up the fish. When the fish were finished, Li Xuemei came back with Zhang Xuyang.

Li Xuemei jumped when she saw the fish in Lan Xi's hand, and then quickly closed the door.

"Sister-in-law, I caught this in the small river in the village. Let's improve the food today." He said and raised the fish in his hand.

Zhang Xuyang's eyes lit up when he saw the fish in Lan Xi's hand. He didn't know what it was, but he got off Li Xuemei's body agitatedly, and then ran to Lan Xi step by step, staring at the three fish, and wanted to poke them. One poke.

Naturally, Li Xuemei had no objection. She also knew that there were fish in that river. Usually, some children in the village caught fish from there, and they all took them home. This was a tacit understanding in the village.

"Okay, I'm going to light the fire now."

After finishing speaking, he cleaned up the internal organs of the fish that Lanxi had processed, and then went to the kitchen to light the fire.

Lan Xi also walked towards the kitchen with three fish in hand, and Zhang Xuyang saw that there was no one left, so he staggered into the kitchen by himself.

Lan Xi's cooking skills can't be said to be delicious, but it's not that hard to swallow.

Today, Lan Xi proudly dug a lot of lard out of the oil tank, and Li Xuemei was very distressed when she saw it.

The fish was fried and then boiled in water. There were not many ingredients, just some salt and some wild vegetables were added to it, but the aroma was overwhelming, and Lan Xi even found time to eat several pieces of corn tortillas in the pot.

Li Xuemei was watching while burning the fire, and couldn't help swallowing. As for Zhang Xuyang, he was already staring at the cauldron.

When the three of Zhang Jianye came back, they asked for a scent as soon as they entered the house. Zhang Qing didn't care about washing his hands, and ran to the kitchen a few steps. When he smelled the strong fragrance, he couldn't help but inhale a few more mouth.

And Zhang Xuyang took a look at Zhang Qing, and said in a waxy voice, "Father, fish, there are fish in it."

While talking, he pointed to the cauldron.

Zhang Qing still didn't believe it, looked at Li Xuemei, Li Xuemei nodded, and he happily raised Zhang Xuyang.

Kissed his white and tender face fiercely, "I have fish to eat today, I will let my precious son eat more later."

At this time, Yang Guilian walked in while wiping her face, and snatched Zhang Xuyang from Zhang Qing.

"Go, go, don't harm my grandson, wash your hands quickly, it really dirty my grandson's face."

Zhang Qing didn't refute, and went out to wash his hands with a playful smile.

Yang Guilian hugged Zhang Xuyang with one hand, lifted the lid of the pot with the other, and looked at the fish in the pot.

Li Xuemei next to her also praised Lan Xi, "Mom, Xiaolan caught this from that river. Little sister is really amazing. These fish are not small."

Yang Guilian was also very happy to be able to eat fish, but she has always been frugal, and she came from the famine for three years, so she couldn't help but said to Lan Xi.

"It's all stewed, you can keep one to eat later, and this oil is also used for a lot of people, it's really not in charge of the family, you don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt, and everything is left to you."

She is merciless when she blames Lan Xi. Although Yang Guilian loves her two children very much, she usually speaks mercilessly when she does something wrong to them.

What's more, sometimes they still do it. On the contrary, his father, Zhang Jianye, usually looks majestic and silent. For the two of them, when he was reprimanded by Yang Guilian, he took the initiative to make a sound.
