Chapter 390 A Lean Camel Is Bigger than a Horse

As soon as he entered the town, he met Zhao Erlang who was carrying a pole.

Next to him, there was a middle-aged woman, wearing a navy blue cotton dress, with a blue floral scarf on her head, holding a vegetable basket in her hand, with a few green onions in it.

When Zhao Erlang saw Baiyun Xi, he quickly put down the pole, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and grinned.

"Sister-in-law Bai, you are in town."

"Oh, what a coincidence, I met an acquaintance as soon as I entered the town."

Bai Yunxi smiled, looked at the woman beside him, and nodded,

"Who is this?"

"This is my mother-in-law, Mrs. Cui." Zhao Erlang introduced with a smile.

"It turns out it's the big girl who caused you trouble last time."

Mrs. Cui also knew about the loan of her yard. When she saw Baiyun Xi, she was stunned for a moment and then realized what she was doing. She smiled and waved her hand.

"I've heard of Sister-in-law Bai a long time ago. Since we're all acquaintances, you don't have to be polite. My aunt often talks about you in front of us. It makes me feel happy just to mention it. I've always wanted to meet you in person. Last time Sister-in-law Bai borrowed the courtyard, I just happened to go back to my parents’ home and missed it, which was a pity.”

Mrs. Cui said, looking up and down Baiyun River. Because she borrowed the house, she also thanked her with forty eggs. It was just a gift, so she was not trying to pick someone up.

She asked whether she wanted the eggs she left for her aunt, saying they were for the family to replenish their health.

In the past two days, every meal at home has a plate of scrambled eggs, and the children are very happy.

"It's better to be famous than to meet her. Sister-in-law Bai seems to have an extraordinary bearing at first glance. Today we have officially met. If anything happens in the future, just come to our house and we will walk around often."

Bai Yunxi looked at Cui's appraisal without paying attention, and chuckled lightly,

"Thank you for your kindness. To be honest, I really have something to inquire about when I come to town today. While Eg Zhong passes by, I want to renovate my house at home, so I come to town to find an ink master with a good reputation."

Mr. Cui is a talkative person at first glance. Generally, such a person is basically a news tree.

Sure enough, listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Cui slapped her thigh,

"Isn't this a coincidence? My mother-in-law's brother is the best ink master. His skills are passed down from generation to generation."

Baiyunxi: "..."

Is it such a coincidence? Did you ask at the door of your house?

Seeing Bai Yunxi's surprised eyes, Ms. Cui raised her head and burst into laughter.

"Ouch... I'm scaring you. I have such a fickle personality. I've had it for half my life and I can't change it. Please bear with me."

Zhao Erlang heard his wife's tone and agreed with him,

"Sister-in-law Bai, don't be surprised. Mrs. Cui usually has a loud voice, and she is used to it. But she is right. My uncle is very good at craftsmanship. He builds houses in eight villages around ten miles away. When it comes to ink masters, he is definitely the best. No. 1.

Even Zhao Erlang said this, Bai Yunxi already believed it in his heart.

"That's a coincidence. I'm so busy here, and it turns out that the noble man is right in front of me. I can't find him anywhere without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get him."

"Oh, listen, you are really an elegant person. You can write articles when you open your mouth. This alone is incomparable to us roughnecks."

I heard from my aunt that this woman used to be the wife of Juren, but her fate was bad. Juren died, leaving them orphans and widowers to live.

It is said that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. She has never doubted this. After all, they are a family of noble people, and no matter how poor they are, they are still better than ordinary people.
