"Sister Xia, can we stay at your house for one night?" I asked straight to the point.

Widow Liu looked at us and asked, "Stay overnight? Aren't you afraid of me?"

"What are you afraid of?" I asked back.

Widow Liu said, "After you left just now, you didn't meet the tongue-tied woman in the village? The tongue-tied woman in the village didn't say anything to you?"

Obviously, Widow Liu is very clear about her reputation in the village, and she also knows what kind of role the aunt who just talked to us is.

I nodded and said, "As I said, I'm here just to verify whether what they said is true."

Widow Liu was stunned for a moment by my frankness! Fatty Wu was even more surprised. Maybe he was so nervous for me that cold sweat broke out on his soles!

After a few seconds, Widow Liu chuckled

He smiled and said, "It's interesting, little brother! Since you're not afraid, then come in."

As she spoke, Widow Liu opened the door of her home and welcomed me in.

After we entered the house, Widow Liu asked me, "Have you had dinner?"

I shook my head and said "No!"

Widow Liu smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then you sit on the sofa and watch TV and wait for me. I will go get you some food now. I am usually alone, so I only cook enough for myself!"

Widow Liu's house is well decorated, and floor tiles have been installed on the first floor. It looks very clean and tidy.

Seeing Widow Liu leaving, Fatty Wu quickly said to me, "Mr. Li, did you speak too directly just now? How could you say that in front of her? Even if you really came here to verify her identity

, you can’t say it so directly. If you say it so directly, she must be disguising it. Aren’t you afraid that we won’t find anything?”

I glanced at Fatty Wu and asked, "What's wrong? Do you really believe what that aunt said?"

Fatty Wu was stunned again and asked me, "What do you mean by this? Are you saying that what Auntie said is false?"

"It's hard to distinguish between true and false, but when you meet a stranger, don't believe a stranger's words easily. We must have our own subjective consciousness. It shouldn't be them who have the final say on whether it's good or bad, but we can judge it ourselves.

."

Fatty Wu lowered his head in shame and said, "I understand, Mr. Li!"

"By the way, Mr. Li, can we eat the food cooked by Widow Liu later?"

"Why not? Just open it and eat it!"

Twenty minutes later, Widow Liu brought the food to a table in the living room. There were three dishes on the table, and one soup! It was ribs and corn soup. The three dishes were a bowl of sausage and bacon, a bowl of eggplant, and

There is a bowl of tomato scrambled eggs.

She said to the two of us, "We don't have much food at home, that's all. It's not as good as the delicious food in the city. You can eat whatever you want and don't show up."

I said to Widow Liu, "Thank you, Sister Xia, for your hospitality. This is already very rich."

Widow Liu smiled and asked, "By the way, didn't you go hiking? How was it? Have you climbed to the top of the mountain?"

I shook my head and said, "Not yet. I was too tired. I sat on the mountainside for a while and then went down the mountain!"

"Pfft!" Widow Liu couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then said, "I believe you can go up the mountain yourself, but I don't believe this little brother can go up the mountain!"

She was referring to Fatty Wu. Fatty Wu wanted to go up the mountain and no one would believe him.

Fatty Wu coughed and said, "Sister Xia, actually I can go up the mountain too!"

"Hahaha, yes, yes, I believe it." It could be seen that Sister Xia was very happy, at least the smile she showed was sincere.

We were eating and chatting like this. As we were chatting, Sister Xia suddenly said with emotion, "I haven't had a guest in my house for a long time. The last time I had a guest was at the beginning of spring last year. Nowadays, people just want to ask me."

It’s a road, and you’ll always walk around it when you see me. I know that there are many people in the village, and they all have a bad opinion of me.”

Having said this, Widow Liu's face clearly showed a little sadness!

"By the way, two brothers, what do the people in the village say about me?"
