Chapter 199: Shame
"Sister-in-law, I understand that you miss Yingying." Liu Yong echoed.
Li Xinniang suddenly looked at Liu Yong, was stunned for a moment, lowered her head again, and said quietly: "The slave family is not only worried about Yingying, but also about you, brother. With that, she buried her head in her chest.
Liu Yong hit a spirit, as if he was electrocuted by this sentence. Looking at Li Xinniang's shyness, he felt that there seemed to be a deeper meaning in what she said.
"Oh, let my sister-in-law worry, I'm really ......"
Li Xinniang raised her head suddenly, her face was already flushed with shame, and she looked at Liu Yong with a little expectation, wanting to say something but couldn't say anything.
After Liu Yong's words were interrupted, he didn't know what to say, in the original Liu Yong's remaining memory, there were indeed many shadows of Li Xinniang.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then both bowed their heads shyly. The atmosphere became awkward for a moment.
In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, Liu Yong had to find some topics to talk about casually, so he talked about what he had seen and heard on the way to Xixia. But Li Xinniang didn't listen to a word, she felt flustered. At this moment, Liu Yong is no longer his brother-in-law, but a strange man who has a good impression of himself.
The panic seemed to be contagious to Liu Yong, and his speech began to become incoherent, and he didn't shake off the burden of funny several times, but was embarrassed. Finally, he stopped talking, and looked out the door, waiting for someone to come to his rescue.
But no one came, and the embarrassment continued.
Li Xinniang was ashamed of her thoughts, and at this time she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Uh, sister-in-law." Liu Yong still endured the embarrassment and opened the conversation.
"Huh? What, what? Li Xinniang lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Liu Yong, but she cooperated.
"Oh, what I want to say is, sister-in-law, you're still young......"
Halfway through Liu Yong's words, Li Xinniang couldn't sit still, and suddenly got up, and Liu Yong, who was frightened, didn't dare to say any more.
"That, that, the slave family went to see how Yun'er's food was doing." As he spoke, he walked out.
Liu Yong didn't answer, but saw Li Xinniang walk to the door and stopped.
"Brother, what are you going to say to the slave family?" Li Xinniang asked boldly.
"I, what I want to say is that my sister-in-law is still young, if there is, there is a suitable man......" Liu Yong still didn't continue, but the meaning was already very clear.
Li Xinniang trembled when she heard this, and almost fainted. After standing for a long time, he said sadly: "Brother, do you dislike the slave family for following you in the way?" ”
"No, no, how can I dislike my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law treats Liu Yong like a brother, I wish my sister-in-law could be by my side every day." Liu Yong hurriedly explained.
Although Li Xinniang's heart sank because of Liu Yong's words, she knew that the little uncle was for her own good, and she listened to his explanation, so she let out a long breath.
"Sister-in-law, don't misunderstand me!" Liu Yong added a sentence.
"Good brother, marrying your brother has made the slave family disappointed in men, and the slave family doesn't want to marry again in this life and this life." Li Xinniang said a little sad.
"Sister-in-law, not all men are like my brother." Liu Yong said.
"Yes, it's like your brother, but it's not the same as your brother." Li Xinniang sighed.
After the two were silent for a moment, Liu Yong followed and said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't want to remarry, then brother and I will take good care of my sister-in-law." ”
"What if the slave family never marries for the rest of their lives?" Li Xinniang turned around abruptly and looked at Liu Yong stupidly.
"Then I will serve my sister-in-law for the rest of my life." Liu Yong said.
Li Xinniang suddenly burst into tears and hid her face.
Looking at her back, Liu Yong had mixed feelings in his heart. But he understands one thing, Li Xinniang is a poor woman.
……
Su Erniang's skills are really good, although there are no ingredients, she still makes a table of dishes.
"Sister Su, did you do this?" Liu Yong asked in surprise.
Su Erniang just smiled and said, "You taste?" ”
Liu Yong casually tasted a bite of green vegetables, tasted it, and praised: "This dish is fried well, and it smells of meat." ”
As soon as he said this, Li Xinniang and Yingying both went to see this dish, and couldn't help but try it.
"Huh? It really tastes like meat! Yingying clicked her mouth and asked, "Master, how did you do it?" ”
Su Erniang smiled but did not answer.
Li Xinniang also nodded: "Well, indeed." ”
"Really? I'll taste it too. Yun'er also took a bite, "Yes, it's delicious." Sister Su, I didn't see anything you put in it? ”
"It's called craftsmanship." Su Erniang said with a smile.
"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious." Liu Yong ate other dishes one after another, all of which were praised.
"My brother eats more if he likes it. Big lady, do you eat too? Su Erniang said.
"Okay, there's Sister Lao." Li Xinniang said.
"Where, there is also Yun'er's credit." Su Erniang said.
Yun'er hurriedly said: "Sister Su said that she laughed, Yun'er just started to fight, and it was all Sister Su's credit." ”
Su Erniang smiled. She is always happy to be praised for her cooking skills.
Liu Yong said: "Well, this time, Sister Su will be my royal chef in the future." ”
"Brother is so greedy." Li Xinniang smiled, "Did Miss Su sell it to you?" As a bodyguard and a chef, you're not afraid of tiring people. ”
"Yes, yes, sister-in-law's lesson, Sister Su won't have to worry about anything in the future, just accompany her sister-in-law and Yingying at home to enjoy happiness." Liu Yong said with a smile.
"That's not possible, my Su Erniang is your bodyguard, and your safety in this life is all in my hands." Su Erniang knew that Liu Yong's words were a joke, but she was still a little anxious.
Liu Yong looked at her in a daze, and then smiled. Su Erniang immediately became shy. followed by Li Xinniang and Yun'er also smiled.
The first meal back home was finished laughing like this.
After eating, Liu Yong was going back to the county seat to see how things were going over there. In the evening, I have to feast on the magistrate, and I won't be able to go back to Meizhou City tonight.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to stay at home or at the guest house tonight?" Liu Yong asked Li Xinniang.
Of course, Li Xinniang is going to live at home.
"Okay, I'll be back in the evening." After Liu Yong finished speaking, he said to Yun'er: "Yun'er, in the afternoon, you will lead the little servants to our tenants' houses to see if they are still planting our land." ”
"It's Lang Jun." Yun'er nodded.
At this time, Li Xinniang said: "Brother, the slave family thinks it's strange!" ”
"What's wrong, sister-in-law?" Liu Yong asked.
"Why can't you see those old tenants come to visit? Supposedly they should have come when they learned that we were back? And I didn't see them in front of the courtyard gate? Li Xinniang remembered the old tenants who shed tears for what happened to her Liu family.
"yes, I think it's weird too!" Yun'er followed up again.
"Maybe they're not in the village anymore." Liu Yong guessed.
"Well, it's also possible that when the field changed owners, they probably wouldn't have done it." Yun'er said.
Li Xinniang sighed and said quietly: "If it weren't for their help, your brother might not be able to mourn." ”
