Chapter 51: The City

One more

Ruan Wan then changed the topic: "By the way, what is the ending of "Magic Macache Thirteen Lang"? Who did the male protagonist choose?" She also opened a bet with her grandmother on this matter, and bet on a bowl of good sauce radish, you must know the result!

"Don't mention it. At the mention of this, my grandmother's voice was full of depression, "This ending...... In your words, it's just a blood-spitting mouth. ”

"Hmm? Could it be that the male protagonist chose 'chicken feather head'?" Ruan Wan asked suspiciously, "As far as the plot is concerned, his favorite should be 'Purple Lips', and the one he can't let go of should be 'Sequin Skirt'." ”

"'Chicken feather' is a spy sent by the villain.,In the end, in order to block the sword for the male protagonist.,Died.。 By the way, she is actually the long-lost sister of the male protagonist. ”

Ruan Wan took a mouthful of blood: "And then?"

The male protagonist was sad, and killed himself after killing the villain. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ And then what?"

"Then 'Purple Lips' and 'Sequin Dress' lived happily together. ”

Ruan Wan: "......"

What the hell is this!!

Is it really okay to go from a pseudo-harem drama to a lily ending???

In order to prevent her mind from being polluted, she quickly put an end to the topic. Well, she hadn't watched this drama at all, so no one should mention it to her again! Immediately, the grandparents and grandchildren talked a lot before they hung up the phone.

Here, Ruan Wan hung up the phone and began to pack her luggage.

Grandma smiled a little.

Is the box worth it?

Of course she does.

It's just a gesture.

But it's not a big deal, because for that old man Joe, the most important thing should be the painting. When Fanghua married their family, she inquired about the situation over there, and the words she sent were handwritten by the "leader" who enlisted in the army that Mr. Qiao. Although that word is not the best or valuable, it is probably a real "priceless treasure" for Old Man Qiao.

In fact, it's not just the box, the new sets of clothes she made for Xiaowan, the fabrics used are all objects at the bottom of the box, and anyone who knows a little bit can see that it is precious. There is no way, the times have progressed, but there are fewer and fewer people who can make these things, and if there are few, they will naturally be precious. Not only the clothes, but also the pieces of jewelry she brought to Xiaowan were also her dowry back then.

Grandma remembered her granddaughter's stupid sigh of "so beautiful" when she was holding something, and unconsciously deepened the smile on the corner of her mouth. Speaking of which, these things have really been dusted for too long -- when she was young, as a widow, she didn't dare to wear them lightly; when Fanghua got married for the first time, she didn't dare to "show her wealth" lightly because of the restrictions of the times; and when Fanghua got married for the second time, the two of them fell out......

Thinking about it this way, Xiaowan also caught up with the good time.

Flaunting your wealth?

Well, she just likes to dress up her granddaughter with good things - who can say anything if she's willing?

She knew that according to Xiaowan's character, even if she went to Qiao's house, she might not suffer, but she just wanted to let people who know how to look down on people polish their eyes, her Xiaowan is not going to fight the autumn breeze, but a serious and delicate girl who was pampered by good people.

As for not suing SΓΉ Xiaowan......

Well, in Xiaowan's own words, it is to let her "unconsciously pretend to be a force", so that she will not show traces.

Thinking of this, the grandmother shook her head helplessly, thinking that Xiaowan didn't know what was going on with this child, sometimes she seemed to be generous, and sometimes she was stingy. For example, just now, Bacheng wanted to condemn her as a "loser". Of course, it's better for girls to know a little bit about the world these days, so as not to be cheated and help people count money.

The granddaughter of the old man in order to go out to be a "guest" is also heartbroken!

It turns out that ginger is still old and spicy.

After Qiao Shuqi over there was educated by his own father, although he still looked at Ruan Wan unpleasantly, he didn't find fault anymore. She thought back to the little girl's clothes with the idea that "Su Fanghua's hometown is not ordinary", and felt that her clothes were indeed extraordinary, and the embroidery on it was quite vivid - she had also made a cheongsam in the past, and felt that the embroidery master's craftsmanship was not as good as this......

She wanted to ask, but she couldn't wipe her face, so she could only hold her breath secretly. She originally looked down on Su Fanghua, and felt that she was useless except for her face, but now she found that some of her hair and face were better than herself, and she couldn't bear it, so she wanted to find something to make up for it from other aspects. But before she could come up with a great idea, she received a phone call.

After answering the phone, Qiao Shuqi's expression changed greatly, and he didn't care about playing any revenge, so he hurriedly left with his bag.

Ruan Wan didn't know what was going on with her, and she wasn't interested in it, but listening to her mother's inadvertent tone, it seemed like something had happened to Qiao Shuqi's husband. In her previous life, she came here near the end of the summer vacation, so she naturally didn't know about it. But she always knew that Qiao Shuqi and her husband had a good relationship - until Qiao Shuqi found out that her husband was cheating in marriage, and more than once.

Of course, none of these things have anything to do with her.

Ruan Wan came over this time, and the most important thing was to express her "gratitude" to Old Man Qiao, and by the way, she told others that she would not come over to study. At present, the main purpose has been achieved, and if she stays for a few more days, she can "return home" and hide her merit and fame.

In the evening, Qiao Jingwei returned.

In the summer in the north, the weather is hot and dry, and as soon as he enters the door, he unbuttoned the first button of his shirt, feels the cool breeze blowing in the house, and sees his wife smiling as usual, and while taking the coat he has taken off, he said softly: "I think you should come back too." Today is very hot, I asked Wu's mother to make some herbal tea in the morning, and it is still warm, just enough to drink. ”

"It's okay to be cool. Qiao Jingwei picked up the small white porcelain bowl brought by his wife, drank the warm herbal tea in it, and suddenly felt that the heat in his body had dissipated a lot.

"That's not going to work. Su Fanghua folded the coat in her hand and hugged it in her arms, and said with a smile, "Your stomach is not good, and it's best not to drink cold in summer." ”

Qiao Jingwei nodded, looked at Su Fanghua with gentle eyes, and replied, "Well, you have the final say on family affairs." By the way, he asked, "Has Xiaowan already arrived?"

"It's here. Su Fanghua nodded, and then showed a sad face, "It's just ......"

"How?"

Su Fanghua sighed: "There were some twists and turns on the road, I knew that I really shouldn't have let her come alone." After that, she followed Qiao Jingwei's footsteps to the house, and at the same time told her husband a little about Ruan Wan's "second entry into the palace", and in the end, she was scared, "It's also Xiaowan's luck, if something really happens to her, I ......."

"Don't be afraid. Qiao Jingwei stretched out his hand and grabbed his wife's shoulder and patted it, "It's okay if people are fine, I will deal with the rest of the matter." ”

"Hmm. Su Fanghua nodded, and her heart suddenly settled down a lot.

She is a standard little woman, accustomed to the life of "male protagonist outside and female protagonist inside", and she relies on Qiao Jingwei very much. Since he said so, she was naturally convinced. As a wife and mother, her biggest "dream" now is to hope that the newcomer Xiaowan can get along well with her current family. It's just that reality is destined to disappoint her-

After Ruan Wan and Qiao Jingwei met, they were cold.

Actually, this is normal, because they don't have much in common with each other at all. Qiao Jingwei did not have any objection to his wife's move to pick up Ruan Wan, but feelings cannot be cultivated in a day, not to mention that he was born cold. As for Ruan Wan, she didn't have a good impression of the Qiao family's father and son, and she couldn't do anything to kneel and lick, so she only shouted "Uncle Qiao" and pretended to be stunned.

Su Fanghua was anxious in her eyes, but there was nothing she could do.

In this regard, Ruan Wan can be regarded as seeing all the people of the Qiao family. After reading it, I thought that - well, although she had only been out for less than a day, she was already a little homesick. In particular, she still prefers to dine with her grandmother than the dinner atmosphere of Qiao's house. Although she occasionally said a few more words, she would be disgusted by her grandmother for "talking too much", but that sense of warmth is much better than this sense of restraint.

After dinner, it was still dawn, but the sun was not as dazzling as before. Qiao Xinwan took Ruan Wan around the compound very enthusiastically, occasionally saw familiar people from a distance, and made a slight introduction.

As they walked around, the two of them heard a shout not far away.

"Wish!"

Ruan Wan was slightly stunned when she heard this voice.

Qiao, who was originally smiling exceptionally brightly, had a dark face, took Ruan Wan's hand and strode up.

She is willing to go, but people may not be willing to let her go.

After three or two steps, a girl in a white dress stopped in front of Qiao Xinyuan and Ruan Wan, looked at the former with an aggrieved look in her eyes and said, "Xinyuan, why don't you ignore me?"

Qiao Yuanshen stopped and asked with a bad expression: "Yao Yexin, what are you looking for me?"

The girl in the white dress bit her lip, rubbed the hem of her skirt with both hands, and whispered: "I really didn't mean to sue Brother Xie for the previous incident, and I didn't expect him to come to trouble you later." Wish, are you angry? Or will I ask Brother Xie to apologize to you?"

Ruan Wan looked at Qiao Xinyuan, who had a worse face, and the girl in the white dress with a weak face, and secretly sighed in her heart-if these two people fought, which side would she stand on?

On one side is a sister who has the same blood in general, and has not turned her face in this life......; Well, it's her "comrade-in-arms" who was the same in her previous life!

Two more

Looking at Yao Yexin's sister at the moment, you can know that she is undoubtedly the "White Lotus".

In the previous life, Ruan Wan and her relationship was not bad for a certain period of time, firstly, because the two were in similar circumstances - Ruan Wan was the widow of Su Fanghua's ex-husband, and Yao Yexin was a distant relative of the Xie family, secondly, because both of them looked at Qiao's wishes unpleasantly, and thirdly, because they both embarked on the path of the White Lotus.

Ruan Wan looked at Yao Yexin, who she hadn't met for a long time, and her mood was a little complicated, in a sense, this girl could be regarded as her "mentor". After suffering repeated setbacks here in her previous life, she didn't have so much interest and embarked on the road of revenge against society, and only embarked on the road of revenge on Joe's wishes. In this case, Yao Yexin, who successfully snatched things from Qiao Xinyuan's hands, naturally became the object of her imitation.

As for the "things" that Yao Yexin snatched......

"No, I've already broken off my friendship with him!" said Jo to the girl in the white dress in front of her, full of anger.

Ruan Wan assured with her more than ten years of experience in the White Lotus that this girl was about to burst into tears.

Look, sure enough, I cried!

In the blink of an eye, two lines of tears appeared on Yao Yexin's face. At the same time, Jo wished that the whole thing was going to blow up! Again! Again! Didn't she do anything? Why did she cry again!

She was collapsing, only to feel a force in her wrist.

Then, she was ripped away by Ruan Wan.

Even if Ruan Wan thinks about it with her feet, she can think of what kind of drama will be next-Yao Yexin is still tender now, and her methods are much more clumsy than in the future. And she has no interest in this kind of thing at all, just looking at it will remind her of the stupid things she has done, which is simply unlovable.

However, what made her a little puzzled was Qiao's wish, and the latter was a little surprised at first, but then he actually got excited, and pulled her away in turn. Compared to the body, Ruan Wan and Yao Yexin are not Qiao Xin's opponents. So soon, they left the white lotus far behind.

Then, Qiao Xinwan sent Ruan Wan a good person card-

"Sister, you're so nice!"

β€œοΌŸβ€

"As soon as the others saw her crying, they thought that I had bullied her, and I didn't do anything!" As soon as she mentioned this, Qiao's excitement shrank slightly, and a look of annoyance appeared on her face again.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Fortunately, sister, you are different from others. Qiao Xinyuan stared at Ruan Wan with blazing eyes, as if she had found the light of her life path, "How do you know that she is a liar?" Although her sister didn't say anything, she knew that her sister hadn't been deceived by Yao Yexin's guy at all!

If you really want to analyze the reasons, you can't finish it in 8,000 words. So Ruan Wan, who was afraid of trouble, replied succinctly: "Intuition." ”

"Awesome!" Qiao Xinyuan gave Ruan Wan a thumbs up, and then said depressedly, "Why don't other people have such an intuition as you? I'm not Brother Ziyu, how can I be so free to bully people every day!"

As soon as Ruan Wan heard this, she couldn't help but order a piece of wax for Shen Ziyu in her heart, and it was not too sour to be used as a reference object or something.

"Sister, you say, why do other people believe her?"

Ruan Wan replied succinctly again: "Because she is weak and beautiful." ”

The weak Yao Yexin and the relatively strong Qiao Xinyi stand together, and everyone will subconsciously feel that the former is a bully weak. Of course, beauty is the real point, ugly and weak is called cowardice, and beautiful and weak is called pitiful.

Joe's wish: "......" Hearing this answer, she felt the urge to vomit blood for some reason, but at the same time, she felt that it made so much sense. She kicked the stone at her feet a little frustratedly, "I can't just go for plastic surgery for this." ”

Ruan Wan couldn't help but laugh.

In all fairness, Joe's wish is not ugly, especially when she grows up, she can be regarded as a sunny beauty. It's just that her boyish personality and way of doing things are against the girlish Yao Yexin, and it has become a certain thing to suffer. Not to mention, although most boys of this age have their own careful eyes, they are not very smart in these things, and it is natural to be blinded.

For example, Xie Ronghua.

As Yao Yexin's former "comrade-in-arms" and Qiao Xinyuan's former "enemy", Ruan Wan naturally knows a lot about this matter.

Xie Ronghua's father Xie Lei and Qiao Jingwei have a good relationship, Xie Ronghua is two years older than Qiao Xinyuan, and the two of them can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. It is said that the fathers of the two families also said about "baby and baby parent" when they joked, but no one has really taken this kind of thing seriously these days. Xie Ronghua has a gentle personality, Qiao Xinwan has been a bit of a naughty child since he was a child, and sometimes the latter causes trouble, and the former comes to take the blame. After a long time, Qiao Xinyuan naturally values this "good-natured little brother".

Of course, there are no complicated feelings between children. If you give them enough time and space, maybe they can really bear the fruit of love. It's a pity that there is no if, two or three years ago, Xie Ronghua's mother took Yao Yexin, a distant relative who was an orphan, to her home to raise her. Since then, the relationship between Xie Ronghua and Qiao Xinyuan has plummeted.

In her opinion, if she didn't want to be an orphan girl anymore, she had to firmly grasp the Xie family, and what easier way was there than to catch Xie Ronghua? Of course, she knows very well that there is nothing wrong with Xie Ronghua and Qiao's wishes, but this is only for now, and it is difficult to say what the future will be. And more importantly, Xie Ronghua's father is very optimistic about Qiao Xinyuan and the Qiao family behind her, that is to say, once Qiao Xinyuan really wants to do something, she will have no power to fight back.

She didn't want to passively wait for death, so she resolutely chose to take the initiative.

That's how it turned out.

Ruan Wan, who was once immature, once felt that Yao Yexin was extremely powerful, but now that she looks at it, Yao Yexin's means are good, but the reason why she was able to succeed is inseparable from Xie Ronghua himself. At best, he has a gentle personality, and at worst, this guy is a middle, central, empty, and tune! He can't see girls being wronged, so he used to protect Qiao Xinyuan, but now he protects the weaker Yao Yexin.

"If only I looked like you, sister. Jo wished to keep kicking the stones, muttering, "You're prettier than her." ”

Ruan Wan: "......" Can she take this as a compliment?

"Brother Ronghua will definitely come to trouble me again. Qiao Xinwan snorted, looking depressed, "It's like this every time, it's annoying." ”

Ruan Wan thought to herself: That's it, only in this way will your relationship be worn away little by little in the process.

At least judging from Qiao's attitude now, Yao Yexin has indeed done a very successful job. Now Qiao Xinyuan is estimated to be a "little girl who loves to bully" in Xie Ronghua's eyes, and Xie Ronghua in Qiao's Xinyuan is "a guy who loves to find trouble".

Because of this incident, Qiao, who was still in high spirits, was interested. Seeing this, Ruan Wan offered to go back. Qiao Xinyuan agreed without much struggle, however, on the way back, she was very unfortunate to meet Xie Ronghua, who came to "rejuvenate the teacher and ask for guilt".

"Little wish. Xie Ronghua frowned and stopped Qiao's wish, "Why are you bullying Xinxin again?"

When Ruan Wan heard this, she subconsciously shuddered, thinking that it was a unique talent to be able to shout people's names so thunderously! But then again, Xie Ronghua's appearance and temperament are indeed good, and he has a kind of "warm as jade" feeling that romance male protagonists often have, and with his expression, words and deeds, he is really condescending if he does not go to the development of the entertainment industry.

"I didn't. Qiao Xinyuan had a straight face and said dryly-she was naturally soft and not hard, and seeing Xie Ronghua coming to trouble her, she naturally didn't have a good face.

"yes. At this moment, Yao Yexin grabbed Xie Ronghua's sleeve from behind, pulled it, and said with a crying voice, "Brother Xie, I really didn't bully me, don't quarrel with her." ”

When Xie Ronghua heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper.

Qiao's wish exploded completely, and she shouted without thinking: "I'm talking to Brother Ronghua, what are you interjecting?!"

Ruan Wan secretly supported her forehead, okay, Qiao wished that this unlucky child had already lost.

It is true that since this sentence, Qiao's wish can be described as "defeated like a mountain", and the two sides finally broke up unhappily. Xie Ronghua left with Yao Yexin with a not very good expression, and before leaving, he said earnestly, "Wish, your temper has become so bad now, I'm really disappointed"; Qiao Xinwan rushed all the way home angrily, and after entering the bedroom, he began to ravage the sandbag hanging in the center of the room.

Ruan Wan listened to the wail made by Shabaojun, and twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking that she was taking it for Xie Ronghua and Yao Yexin.

"Drink!"

"I'll fight!"

……

Qiao was very anxious and trampled the sandbag, then stopped sweating profusely, and asked Ruan Wan while wiping her sweat: "Sister, are you going to fight? This thing is cool to fight!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No need. ”

Qiao Xinyuan sat down cross-legged, holding the sandbag that was still shaking slightly with both hands, and let out a long "sigh" in his mouth, the whole person looked melancholy, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Ruan Wan saw that she had finally calmed down, and casually took out a book from her duffel bag with a book to relieve boredom on the road, and looked down.

"Sister, you say, how can you make Yao Yexin depressed once?"

Ruan Wan, who was fascinated by the book, replied casually: "It's very simple." Then, she only felt that her legs were heavy, and when she came back to her senses, she only saw Qiao Xinyuan's eyes shining on her calves, looking like "the great god begged to hug the golden thighs for careful advice".

"What's ???"

The corners of Ruan Wan's eyes twitched, could she pretend that she didn't say anything?
