Chapter 17: Apologies
Xu Ying went out with the baby, and the second daughter-in-law in the yard was feeding the chickens, and when she saw Xu Ying, she greeted her with a smile: "Sister-in-law is early." ”
"Early. Xu Ying nodded in response.
"Do you eat white porridge in the morning?" asked the second daughter-in-law.
Xu Ying was stunned for a moment, and didn't say anything, both of them pretended to be deaf and dumb about the matter of separating the family, as if it hadn't happened.
Wang Lanmei didn't come out to eat breakfast, Xu Ying ate a few bites of grass, her mouth was light and tasteless, and she couldn't eat it.
"I'm going to deliver food. She took the bowl she had, filled it with white porridge, and walked to the north house.
The second daughter-in-law stopped her, "Sister-in-law, I'll go." She didn't want the family to quarrel early in the morning, and now there were so many people passing by outside that it didn't look good to hear.
"No, I don't. Xu Ying rejected her kindness, "I'm here to apologize." ”
After finishing speaking, she bypassed the second daughter-in-law and went to the north house, the second daughter-in-law looked at Xu Ying's back, slightly distracted, thinking about how this person is the same day by day, you were still noisy yesterday, and you have to apologize to people early this morning, could it be that the porridge is poisoned?
As soon as Wang Lanmei got up, she saw Xu Ying pushing the door and walking in, she was shocked, and the fire came up and asked, "What are you doing here, let people stop early in the morning." ”
"I'm here to apologize to you. Xu Ying's tone was hard, she put the white porridge on the wooden table, and stood on the edge of the table, feeling awkward, but thinking of Gu Zhilai's words, she didn't run, thinking in her heart that it was just an apology, it turned out that she hadn't done it before.
Wang Lanmei's expression was quite incredulous, and she said, "I can't stand it." ”
"It's been a bad time for me to speak these days, and I apologize to you. Xu Ying thought of a lot of rhetoric in her heart, and after saying it, her taste changed, she was very stiff, and she didn't apologize at all, but she had always been provocative.
"That's your attitude?" Wang Lanmei kicked her nose in the face.
Sure enough, this woman still has to be disciplined by a man, and as soon as Gu Zhilai came back, Xu Ying had no problems, and she thought she had something to do.
"You ......" Xu Ying froze and clenched her fists, "Then what do you want?"
Wang Lanmei coughed lightly, "At least say a word, mother, I was wrong, right?"
Xu Ying didn't answer, she was silent, Wang Lanmei was not in a hurry, just waited for her to speak, obviously trampling on Xu Ying's dignity, thinking that she would let you go a few days ago.
"Mother...... I'm sorry, I was wrong. Xu Ying almost bit her tongue off.
"Let's get out. Wang Lanmei waved her hand proudly.
The second daughter-in-law saw that she had been standing not far from the north house, but she was afraid that there would be some quarrel inside, so she had to fight, and after listening to it for a long time, there was no sound inside, so that she seemed to hear Xu Ying calling her mother, and said sorry, she suspected that she had auditory hallucinations.
"Squeak—"
The wooden door was pushed open, the second daughter-in-law hurriedly shifted her gaze, Xu Ying passed by her, her face was gloomy, and the low air pressure could crush people, passing by, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xu Ying did not get any benefits from Wang Lanmei.
Gu Zhilai had eaten, changed his clothes, and saw that Xu Ying had been sitting by the window, and he didn't know what to think.
"Daughter-in-law, do you want to go to the west of the village?"
Xu Ying said "um", "Go, I'll change my clothes, you wait for me." ”
She changed into the skirt that Gu Zhilai brought back, with white flowers and a waist in the middle, making her whole person even more petite.
Gu Zhilai took a look, his eyes lit up a little, and sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and as soon as her clothes are changed, she is much more beautiful than the women in the city.
"Isn't it pretty?" Xu Ying straightened her long hair, and found that Gu Zhilai's eyes had been staring at her face, she picked up the mirror and looked at her face, but there was nothing.
"No, it's not. Gu Zhilai stammered a little, and praised her under Xu Ying's gaze: "It's good-looking." ”
Xu Ying smiled, the two walked out of the house together, the third daughter-in-law happened to come out of her south room, saw the back of the two leaving, and looked at the man who was still lying on the bed and sleeping, a little envious and jealous.
Along the way, many people greeted Gu Zhilai.
When there were still more than ten meters ahead to reach Tian's house, Xu Ying had a bad premonition in her heart.
Gu Zhilai felt that the people around him had quickened their pace, so they had to speed up their pace to keep up, who knows, when they arrived at the door of Tian's house, the originally closed door suddenly opened.
"Brother Zhilai, it's early!" Tian Zhizhi was wearing a pink flower skirt and a hairpin of the same color on her head.
Xu Ying gritted her back molars, this Tian Zhizhi is really ghostly, looking at her dress, I'm afraid she was guarding the door early in the morning, just waiting for Gu Zhilai to pass by, right?
What a blooming white lotus!
Gu Zhi looked at the pink clothes Tian Zhizhi was wearing, and frowned, "Good morning, Zhizhi, your clothes look a little dark." ”
Xu Ying: "......" Hahahaha, Mom, the tears of laughter in her heart are about to come out, Gu Zhilai is a straight man.
She was still worried about whether Gu Zhilai would be interested in Tian Zhizhi just now, but looking at it this way, she thought too much.
The smile on Tian Zhizhi's face stopped abruptly and froze on his face, "I ......"
"You see that this one on your sister-in-law is very good-looking, why don't I bring one for you next time?" Gu Zhilai knew that Xu Ying and Tian Zhizhi usually had the best relationship, so he didn't think much about it, and naturally took Tian Zhizhi as his sister in his heart.
"Really?" When Tian Zhizhi heard this, she regained the smile on her face and said coquettishly: "Won't it be too troublesome, forget it, I'm afraid Yingying will be angry." ”
"No, Yingying, she ......"
Xu Ying interrupted Gu Zhilai's words, took his arm, and said with a little grievance: "Is it very troublesome, or Zhizhi is intimate, I know that if I am afraid that I will be angry, I don't want it, husband, Sister Zhizhi is really considerate, unlike me, I don't know anything, I always cause you trouble." ”
Gu Zhilai originally wanted to say that his daughter-in-law would not be so stingy and angry about this matter, but he was blocked by Xu Ying's words all at once, so he had to follow her words and said: "Zhizhi, don't forget it, next time I can give it to you when Xu Ying finishes wearing it, I see that this piece on your body was also worn by Xu Ying, I remember that she didn't wear it so black when she wore it." ”
Tian Zhizhi: "?"
Xu Ying held Gu Zhilai's arm and shook it non-stop, laughing.
"Is it cold?" Gu Zhilai found that Xu Ying was trembling, thinking that she was cold, took off his black shirt, thoughtfully put it on Xu Ying's body, and said softly: "You are weak, wear more in the future, don't get sick." ”
"Okay, I got it. Xu Ying obediently agreed.
Tian Zhizhi held her hands tightly, she didn't feel anything when her long nails were inserted into the flesh, and she looked at the two people in front of her with red eyes, she understood that Xu Ying did it on purpose.
"Brother Zhilai is so good to Yingying, unlike me, no one loves him. Tian Zhizhi put on an aggrieved expression again.
Xu Ying sighed, thinking about how to make Tian Zhizhi give up Gu Zhilai completely at one time, and just as she was thinking about how to answer, Gu Zhilai suddenly said: "It's okay, isn't there still Aunt Xu in the village who is not married in her thirties, what are you afraid of." ”
