Chen Afu thought of the old lady's words of apologizing for Alu, and hugged Alu again and said, Alu, I'm sorry, my sister and Dabao took away an acre of your land.

Alu raised his lips and said, Sister, I don't like hearing this anymore. You are my sister, and Dabao is my nephew. I should take care of you. Don't worry, sister, when I grow up and become successful, I will earn money to support you. You guys will also build a big house for you.”

What a good kid.

Chen Afu was very moved, hugged his arm hard, and said, Okay, sister is waiting for the day when my brother will be successful.

When Wang came back, she made a bowl of winter melon ball soup for Chen Ming and Mrs. Chen. Mrs. Chen didn't eat, and said she would leave the bowl of meatball soup for Chen Ming to eat at night.

The next day, the rain finally stopped, the sun was shining brightly, and there were a few white clouds floating in the boundless sky, which was blue and distant.

Wang went to the county town to buy medicine for Chen Ming. After the two children read for an hour, Dabao was about to go out to show off his new clothes and wanted to drag his uncle along with him. But A Lu didn't want to go, so Chen Ming made a few more small baskets. He wanted to help deal with the exposed grass and knots, and also wanted to help Chen Ming beat them.

Dabao is torn between feeling that he should work at home, but also wanting to go out and show off.

Chen Afu smiled and said, Mom wants to visit the vegetable field, pull out the grass in the field, and pick some vegetables to eat back. Dabao will take my mother there, okay?

Dabao smiled and rolled his eyes, and immediately said, Dabao is not going out to play, but working in the vegetable field with my mother. He went to touch the stove again, and wanted to smear his mother's face.

Chen Afu shook his head and said with a smile, My mother's illness is cured. There is no need to smear her face anymore.

She has inquired about the situation in the village. The folk customs in this village are quite simple, and the vast majority of the villagers are good and law-abiding people. Although there are a few disasters, people don't dare to do anything bad in broad daylight.

Besides, her legs and feet are now very flexible, so quarreling, running away, and even fighting are no problem.

Chen Ming was still a little worried, but Chen Afu said, I have recovered from my illness, and I have to face life alone. If I don't even dare to leave the house, how will I be able to start my own business in the future?

Chen Ming thought this was the reason, so he didn't stop her anymore.

Chen Afu was wearing a dark green summer shirt, a long blue skirt, a neat ball hair on his arm, a plain face, and walked out holding Dabao. She also carried a vegetable basket on her arm with a small shovel in it. This small shovel can be used for weeding and can also be used as a weapon.

The mother and son went out and walked east. The people he met greeted Dabao and praised his beautiful new clothes, but without exception their eyes were cast on Chen Afu, their eyes full of inquiry and curiosity.

At this time, Chen Afu was neatly dressed, he did not have the same painted face as before, his eyes were no longer stupid, and he still had a smile on his lips. Even in the ten miles and eight villages, I couldn't find a prettier little lady than her. The key is that she has a unique charm, unlike a country woman. Although these people all knew that Chen Afu had recovered from his illness, they were still surprised to see such a beautiful and refreshing young lady.

Chen Afu would greet people politely, and if he didn't say hello, Chen Afu would just smile at them. This is the first time she appears in her true colors, and she still wants to leave a good impression on others. She will be here for a long time in the future.

Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, several elderly women were sitting chatting. Seeing Chen Afu like this, he was also stunned.

The women stared at Chen Afu without scruples, but they spoke to Dabao, Dabao, are you taking your mother out to play?

Dabao knew that those women were talkative women and didn't want to say more. He greeted them politely, Well, my mother has recovered from her illness. I will take her to my vegetable patch to weed and pick some vegetables. He took her. Chen Afu walked towards the outside of the village.

The women were all busy looking for something to say to Chen Afu.

Although Chen Afu didn't like their looks, he politely answered a few words and was pulled away by Dabao.

They had just walked not far when they heard those people talking loudly.

Oh, I didn't expect silly Afu to be so handsome.

He is handsome, but his eyes are a bit dull and his voice is not pleasant. He is thick and tight, like a man.

It's a little rough, but it's slow and easy. Once you hear your temper, it'll be fine.

Oh, even if she's not stupid, her reaction can't be as fast as normal people, but it's just slow. She wants to be fast, can she be fast?

Chen Dabao's little mouth curled up and he said unhappily, Mom, those people are so annoying.

Chen Afu could understand that there was no one who didn't talk behind someone's back, let alone a few village women with long tongues. He smiled and comforted Dabao and said, Those are elderly village women. We are not as knowledgeable as them.

As soon as they left the village entrance, they saw a delicate woman in her twenties walking towards us with a basin. She had just washed her clothes in the creek outside the village.

Aunt Wu. Chen Dabao called from a distance, his voice full of intimacy. This woman is the mother of Xiao Shitou, a good friend of Chen Dabao, and the daughter-in-law of Wu Changgen. She occasionally goes to Chen's house to ask Wang for advice on embroidery skills. She also has another identity, that is, the sister-in-law of Wu Changsheng, a young man whom Chen Aju admires.

Hey, Dabao is wearing new clothes today. He's so handsome. Chang Gen's wife smiled, then smiled at Chen Afu and said, Afu sister, are you going out for a walk?

Apart from her family and Chen Agui, this is the person she talks to the most kindly. Although his eyes were searching, there was no malice in them. Chen Afu was very fond of her and said with a smile, Well, let's go to the vegetable field with Dabao.

Chang Gen's wife smiled again and said, Dabao and Xiao Shitou have a good time. From now on, sister Ah Fu will come to my house more often to visit me when she has nothing to do.

Okay. Chen Afu nodded and smiled.

Her family's vegetable plot is not far from the entrance of the village. It is about two minutes of land, surrounded by a fence, and grows cabbage, cucumbers, leeks, winter melons, eggplants and other vegetables.

Next to the vegetable field, there are several other people's vegetable fields, all separated by fences. Many families in the village will plant vegetables in the backyard if their yard is large. For example, the Chen family's second-bedroom house has a small yard, so they plant vegetables outside.

Chen Afu stood in the vegetable field and looked around. Not far to the south was the east end of the village, and she could still see her yard. There are large fields to the north, west, and east and west, but most of them are dry land to the north and west, and paddy fields to the east. The seedlings in the fields have grown to nearly half a meter high.

Looking further east, as far as the eye can see, there is a large mansion hidden among green trees. The long white walls and blue tiles are particularly eye-catching.

Chen Afu pointed there and asked, Where is that place?

Chen Dabao said, I heard that it was the Zhuangzi of a high official's family, and occasionally noble people would live there. Mother should not go there, or she would be beaten if she offended the noble people. He still remembered that his mother was bullied by evil people in the county seat, and she still There is lingering fear in my heart.
