128. You know it in your heart
Although Lu Xudong said that he would ask Lu Yanxi for help, I still made extra preparations in private.
In fact, mainly after returning to work on Monday, I inadvertently chatted with Xiao Qin about tea, and then I heard that she had relatives who were opening a tea shop, and it happened that Lu Xudong had a dinner in the evening the next day, so after work, I followed Xiao Qin to her relative's tea shop, and then in a bunch of introductions that almost made me confused, I spent nearly 5,000 yuan of my savings and bought two boxes of Ming Qian Longjing.
On the way home on the bus with tea leaves, I could hear my heart bleeding.
As a result, when Lu Xudong came home after socializing, he looked at the tea leaves, and then in my eager anticipation, he just commented on three words very simply: "Let's make peace!"
"Isn't it......" My face suddenly shrugged down, five thousand yuan actually changed to make up, this is still Lu Xudong's vision, if you want to put his father's that, you still have to dislike death?
"Don't worry!" Lu Xudong stretched out his hand and rubbed my eyebrows, "Actually, the tea that Dad usually drinks at home is similar to this...... It's okay, my sister said that my dad has been practicing calligraphy recently, and I asked someone to buy an inkstone in Zhaoqing, and I will send it together when the time comes, so it will not be inferior!"
I breathed a sigh of relief, and that was all I could be.
My father-in-law's birthday was Thursday, and because my mother-in-law specially told me to go back early, I asked for leave at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and Lu Xudong came to pick me up.
When I went to the house, I realized that there were a lot of guests, Lu Xudong's uncles, aunts, aunts, etc., anyway, almost all of the seven aunts and eight aunts came, these people have basically seen them at the wedding banquet, but there are too many people, and I am a little face blind, basically I can't recognize them.
Lu Xudong and I went to give gifts to my father-in-law first, and my father-in-law looked faint and said painlessly: "I have a heart." ”
Guo Yuqing, who was next to him, said very gently: "Wouldn't Dad see what gifts Brother Xudong and sister-in-law gave?
Her shout of "Dad" made me confused, and I glanced at Lu Xudong suspiciously, and there seemed to be confusion in his eyes.
As soon as we looked at each other, my father-in-law had already said to Guo Yuqing: "Then take it apart and take a look!"
I don't have time to wonder about it, I just feel nervous.
As a result, Guo Yuqing just glanced at it with a smile when she saw the tea, and then directly reached out and took the box containing the inkstone, and before she opened it, she said to her father-in-law with a smile: "It seems that Brother Xudong and his sister-in-law have a lot of heart......
My father-in-law looked at the box that Guo Yuqing opened, glanced at me and Lu Xudong with a faint expression, and said in a slightly soothing tone: "You all thought of a piece, Xiaoqing bought me a few pieces of Hui ink, you gave an inkstone, does your sister want to send a brush?"
Fortunately, the two of them finally gave a pair of words that are said to be the words of which celebrity the father-in-law likes......
Lu Yanxi came over with Jiang Junxiu, the two of them held hands, and they were already reconciled, and they couldn't tell that they had a divorce some time ago.
I looked at them who insisted on buttoning their fingers for a while, and then they were taken by my mother-in-law to recognize a circle of people one by one, originally Lu Xudong was afraid that I was nervous, and he was always with me, but halfway he went out to answer a call, and when I finally recognized the circle of people, he hadn't come back yet.
I followed my mother-in-law around the guests for a while, and finally slipped into the courtyard to find Lu Xudong under the pretext of going to the bathroom.
The house of the Lu family was built in the early years, quite a bit of the style of the Republic of China, because it is in the suburbs, covering a large area, in addition to the front door of the large courtyard that is enough to park three or four cars, there is also a slightly smaller garden in the back, I heard that it is also specially designed by a design company, the rockery pavilion bridge, arranged in an antique manner, plus the mother-in-law usually planted a lot of flowers and plants, it is also a special feeling.
So when I went out, although I didn't see Lu Xudong, I decided to go to the pavilion to sit down, and I had to go over to the room to deal with the bunch of people I couldn't name, and I felt awkward when I thought of the way those people looked at me.
When I walked to the rockery, I suddenly heard a somewhat muffled voice coming from the pavilion: "...... Don't go overboard!"
It sounds like Lu Yanxi.
I didn't want to listen to the corner, but I was too curious about how she came here to quarrel with someone, and I wanted to know who she was scolding for excess, and the next second, another familiar voice also sounded: "Excessive? You know what kind of person I am from the day you married me, and now I feel excessive, don't you think it's too late?"
I was immediately confused, didn't these two just hold hands to congratulate my father-in-law on his birthday, why did they hide here and quarrel in the blink of an eye? I hesitated for a while, I didn't know what I should dodge and didn't know whether to go over and persuade and fight. But after thinking about it, I still think it's better to stay away.
When I walked back, I vaguely heard Jiang Junxiu say impatiently: "I'm already very cooperative with you, if you are not satisfied, then I will leave, will it be?"
I quickened my pace back to the house, stood at the door, and then seriously thought about the picture when Lu Yanxi and Jiang Junxiu came hand in hand just now, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, I didn't feel anything when I was in love with Lu Xudong before, but now I feel sad when I change it to someone else.
Or, just because I didn't have a relationship with Lu Xudong at the beginning, but Lu Yanxi has been married for a few years, how long ago did she get divorced, and now ...... Alas!
I sighed with a heavy heart, looking at the very noisy room, I really didn't want to go back to the middle of all kinds of eyes, besides, my father-in-law had been taking Guo Yuqing with me just now, she shouted very affectionately with her father, I didn't dare to speculate what kind of mentality those relatives and friends came to see me.
Lu Xudong is also really, when I went to answer a phone call, I was gone, and when we came over just now, my bag was left directly in the car, and the mobile phone was in the bag, otherwise I could have called him to find him.
Fortunately, there is also a staircase leading to the second floor at the back door, I only hesitated for a moment, and then decided to go upstairs to have a look, maybe Lu Xudong was upstairs in his original room.
What was more unexpected was that when I walked to the second floor, I saw Guo Yuqing, who was still downstairs with my father-in-law just now.
She had obviously just come up from the stairs in the living room, smiled slightly when she saw me, and asked me calmly, "Are you looking for Brother Xudong?"
Seriously, I didn't like the way she looked like nothing had happened, but I nodded anyway without hitting the smiling person, "You see him?"
"Help me buy something!" Guo Yuqing walked towards me quite calmly, and finally stopped a few steps away from me.
Next to her is a low cabinet, with a large handful of pink daisies in a vase, lined with the graceful Guo Yuqing, really like a beautiful picture.
Even if there is still a slight provocation in her eyes now, I can't go against my heart and say that she is not beautiful.
But she was pretty, and I was still quite unhappy, she sent my husband to help her buy things, and knowing that I was looking for him, she came to tell me that combined with the unpleasant conversation in the restaurant that day, I couldn't think of her well.
Show off that she can call my husband casually, right?
Sure enough, Guo Yuqing's next sentence followed suit: "Do you know what he went to buy for me?"
She looked me straight in the eyes, with a vague smile on her lips, took a few more steps towards me, and then leaned into my ear and said in a very soft, but clear voice, "Guard, life, towels!"
She immediately stood up straight, with a pair of beautiful big eyes with a bright smile, looking at me very proudly, as if to say, "How is it, didn't expect it?"
It's like a child trying to prove something, it's naïve!
"Really?" I looked at her close at hand, trying to tell myself that she did it on purpose, and I couldn't be fooled! But the thought that Lu Xudong would help her buy such a private thing made me feel extremely uncomfortable.
Guo Yuqing took a step back and looked at me innocently: "I said earlier, the person in Brother Xudong's heart is me, do you believe it or not...... Didn't you see him just now, as soon as I told him that I seemed to be coming to my aunt, and there was no sanitary napkin at home, he hurriedly went out and bought it for me, and he didn't even think to ask my mother if there was a ...... there."
I pretended to look at her calmly, and asked disappreciatively: "So what? Isn't it normal for my sister to lose face in front of so many relatives and friends, so she doesn't think too much when she is in a hurry?"
"I'm worried about my sister, I can ask my wife to help me buy it, can't he, a big man, buy this kind of thing himself...... I remember that you also have a brother, will your brother also help you buy it?" Guo Yuqing smiled, as if he had expected me to react like this, "Don't forget, I have no blood relationship with him at all! Of course, if you still like to deceive yourself, then I can't help it!"
Of course my brother won't buy me this kind of thing, even the pillow person, I will feel embarrassed, last time I went to the mall with Lu Xudong, I wanted to buy some sanitary napkins and put them at home, but in the end I was embarrassed to go, but now ......
I clenched the hand hanging by my side, smiled a little contemptuously, and whispered: "Of course I haven't forgotten that you are not brothers and sisters, and I am not bad about you, I don't know what is the difference between men and women, what is shame, even if it is really blood-stained pants, you can still find your mother and sister-in-law, how can you embarrass a big man!"
After saying this, I didn't have the heart to care about Guo Yuqing's face, I turned around and wanted to go downstairs the same way.
But I didn't expect Guo Yuqing to reach out and grab me, and shouted: "Who are you scolding without shame!"
"You know what you know!" I threw the words out without showing any weakness, glanced back at her, and waved away the hand she was holding.
Guo Yuqing was thrown by me, staggered back a few steps, and just hit the low cabinet, the vase of flowers on the cabinet was brought down by inertia and fell to the ground, with a crisp sound, the vase also broke into several pieces.
