Chapter 198
When Liuli woke up, the surroundings were hazy and dark, and only a light like a bean in the distance illuminated a small world.
She stared at her for a while before she realized where she was at this time, and then all the things that happened during the day flooded into her mind, and an uncomfortable emotion instantly overwhelmed her.
"Second sister, are you awake?" When Coral entered the house, he saw Ruri who had just woken up, "The food is warm, I'll bring it to you." β
"Coral ......" Liuli opened her mouth, she wanted to say that she was not hungry, so that Coral didn't have to serve food, but before she opened her mouth, the little girl ran away.
Soon, Coral returned with a meal, a simple porridge side dish, and the sticky bean buns she was familiar with.
And the pearl came back with a piece.
"Big sister." Ruri called.
Pearl put the food on the table one by one, and handed the chopsticks to Liuli: "Hungry, eat it while it's hot." β
"I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat." The glass is a little cowardly.
"Let's eat a little more" Pearl persuaded gently, seeing that Liuli was still shaking her head, she said, "Is this not to your liking?" You wait, big sister to make some of your favorite food. β
As he spoke, he was about to get up, but Liuli hurriedly stopped: "Big sister, don't be busy, I'll eat some." β
After speaking, I took the chopsticks and ate a few bites without a match.
Pearl sat next to her, looking at her sister who was so listless, and couldn't help but feel sad, the more she hated the surnamed Zhao, the more distressed she felt for Liuli.
Her nose was sour and she wanted to cry, but she couldn't hold back.
Liuli is when she is sad, if she cries in front of her, won't it make her even more sad?
Liuli was a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly ate two bites, and then put down the chopsticks.
"Finished eating?" Pearl didn't force her anymore, she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and came back: "Sister sleep with you tonight." β
Liuli shook her head: "I'm fine, big sister won't go back, the two naughty bags are going to cry and look for you." β
Shi Guiji and Shi Guishu are just over 1 year old now, and they can wrap pearls the most, and they are better during the day, and the maids or others at home play with them, and the two little ones can also be happy, but at night. I must have the pearl to coax this mother to sleep.
"Your brother-in-law is here, don't worry." Pearl said, she really didn't worry about Liuli.
"Big sister" Ruri looked into Pearl's eyes. "Don't worry, even if it's a big thing, I won't do anything stupid, I just want to be alone."
Pearl hesitated for a moment, then finally compromised: "Okay." β
For several days, Liuli was bored at home, refusing to go out, and ignoring business.
Let's say she's sad, it's not like an ordinary little lady, crying and looking for life, but if you don't say it's sad, it's just boring all day long, and you can't say a word a day, and you can't really worry about a few pearls.
The New Year is coming soon, like this time in previous years, Liuli must be holding all kinds of New Year's goods, preparing gifts for the brothers and sisters at home, and making a lot of delicious food.
And this year, Liuli is not in any mood, she is bored in the house all day, and Pearl has been to see her several times, and every time she sees her writing.
Pearl didn't know a few words, so she called Amber, and by serving tea, she saw what Liuli wrote.
Amber went in to take a look, and saw that the second sister repeatedly wrote the eight words "National color and heavenly fragrance, spring and autumn fruit", he didn't understand it for a while, but Coral immediately knew: "It's the word on our lipstick." β
"Ahh Amber also remembered that the second sister wanted to ask him to write it on his behalf, but he was not confident in his words at that time, so he didn't agree.
"Did Zhao Gongzi write it?" Amber asked.
"Hmm." Coral nodded, "Later, the second sister often went there to practice calligraphy." β
Pearl is silent, it seems that Liuli still can't let go of that Zhao Gongzi, what kind of way to let my sister get out of the shadow of Zhao Gongzi as soon as possible, and be the original happy Liuli.
Pearls are at a loss.
On the last day before the New Year's Festival, all the major shops are going to close for a holiday, and generally the owner will choose this time to send some holiday things to the guys, usually money.
Although the restaurant and Rouge Pavilion are managed by Shopkeeper Zhou and Wei Zi, and the past examples are still there, but in the first year that Liuli took over the shop, they can't be sloppy, and the two still want to ask Liuli for instructions.
Coral knew that the second sister was sad, so she didn't let Liuli be alarmed, and she followed the shopkeeper Zhou to discuss it with Wei Zi.
Wei Zi used to only know that Coral was skillful, and half of Rouge Pavilion's lipstick came from her, but now she found that Coral still has such a heart.
If the New Year's gift is properly pasted, the decision will not be muddy and watery.
"Siniang is really like your sister, she is a person who is born to do great things." Wei Zi sighed.
"In time, it will become a great thing." Shopkeeper Zhou also said.
Coral was not happy when she was complimented, she sighed and said quietly: "I just hope that my sister will get better soon." β
Coral can handle it so well because she has a lot of Rouge Pavilion and restaurants on weekdays, and she knows the situation of the two shops very well, but she can't help much in the tofu shop.
It is necessary to have the pearl handled by himself.
But it's also simple, in addition to Laneige, the tofu shop also recruited a new helper a while ago, it was a male guy, also from Dawan Village, a total of two people, Pearl sent the New Year's silver money, explained the time to work after the year, and then put the two of them on vacation.
Laneige was careful, and saw that Pearl was absent-minded, and when the other male guy left, she pulled Pearl and said with concern: "Is something wrong?" I looked at my sister as if she had something on her mind. β
"Hey," Pearl sighed, not wanting to say more, "It's okay not to mention it." β
Laneige knew that it must be some more private things, so he didn't ask any more: "No matter what happens, my sister has to relax." β
Pearl nodded, and suddenly thought that Laneige had also had a bumpy love road, and she had not married yet, but she had been waiting for her little Langjun to come back.
"Do you know how to get a woman out of grief if she meets a negative man?"
Laneige was about to leave, but when he heard Pearl's question, he stopped again.
"My sister asked." She tugged at the corners of her lips and showed a rather reluctant smile, "Where can I really get out, it's just that after a long time, I gradually get used to it, and outsiders can't see it." β
Only then did Pearl realize that she had touched Laneige's sadness: "I'm sorry Laneige, I didn't mean to ......"
"Hey, I know my sister doesn't have a heart." Laneige laughed again, and didn't ask why Pearl had such a question, after all, it involves men and women, thinking about which young lady in the Song family is just right, and who is worthy of Pearl so worried, Laneige can also guess a few points.
With that delicate face, and the smile of the bright media she had seen in the past, Laneige didn't know that there were still men in this world who were willing to make her sad.
"Actually, there is another way to get out," Laneige thought for a moment, "and that is to find a new Ruyi Langjun." β
This is the best way to end a relationship, which is to start a new relationship.
Pearl mouth paused: "yes, why didn't I think of it!" β
There are so many good sons and daughters in the sky, she doesn't believe that there is no Liuli who is not moved, and she must find someone who is a thousand times better than Zhao Gongzi and ten thousand times better for her sister.
"Laneige, thank you so much."
"Sister, don't be polite."
Pearl went home excitedly, and told Shi Yong his thoughts in the evening, asking Shi Yong to mobilize all relationships to help find the reliable Xiao Langjun.
On the day of the Spring Festival, Liuli returned to his home in Dawan Village to celebrate the New Year with Coral Xiaocao Amber, and Zhou Xiaoshu also returned, but he returned to his home.
On the day of the big day, although Liuli barely cheered up and wanted to have a happy and lively Spring Festival, in the end, the mentality was different, and the happiness that pretended to be was easily seen through by everyone.
But no one said it, and everyone pretended not to see it, laughing and playing, accompanying Liuli, and having a seemingly lively Spring Festival.
In the first month, Pearl finally got free, gearing up, opening the bow left and right, and doing his best to find a suitable person for Liuli.
And Liuli's side has returned to the same way as before, locking herself at home every day to write, but she no longer writes those eight words, but changes them to some ancient poems, which Zhao Mingxu once taught her to write.
After fifteen, Amber will go to school, Song Kee Restaurant and Rouge Pavilion will open, and Coral will also take care of the shop, only Xiaocao will stay at home every day and accompany Liuli.
Originally, Zhou Xiaoshu was about to go out after fifteen, but it was Liuli who stopped him: "Wait a few more days." β
"What do you have to say?" Zhou Xiaoshu asked.
"Hmm." Liuli nodded, didn't say what he wanted to order, only said that Zhou Xiaoshu could leave by the end of the first month at the latest.
At the end of the first month at the latest, Zhao Mingxu should also come back.
Ruri was going to stay at home and wait for the man to come back, but just after fifteen, Pearl came to the house to look for her.
said that Miss Sun Fu was going to invite her to the house as a guest.
"Invite me to be a guest?" Liuli was a little surprised, but what surprised her even more was, "How did the eldest sister know Sun Wan?" β
"Hey, didn't we meet by chance?" Pearl said vaguely, "Why don't you hurry up and go to the banquet tomorrow, don't lose your etiquette." β
"Oh, I see." Liuli responded.
On the second day, Liuli came to Sun's Mansion as promised.
Sun Wan was really waiting for her, and Liuli observed it and didn't see anyone else.
"What is the matter with Sister Wan inviting me?" Ruri guessed that maybe she was going to make a snack or something.
"Can't I invite you if it's okay?" Sun Wan smiled, "We are also friends, you haven't visited my house yet, how about taking you on a good tour today?" β
Liuli intuitively felt that things were not so simple, but she couldn't think of anything else for Sun Wan.
The two talked all the way, and Sun Wan took her to visit the back garden of Sun's mansion, and said that she was a little tired, so the two found a room to rest.
The maid took the tea and snacks, but after only two sips, Liuli heard the man's voice not far away.
"Who's talking?" Ruri asked casually.
Unexpectedly, Sun Wan put down the teacup and gently took Liuli's hand: "Sister come with me." β
Liuli followed Sun Wan to a place at the back of the house in a daze, where the voice was clearer, it seemed to be the voice of two men, one was older, and the other was very young.
"What does my sister want?" Ruri couldn't help but ask.
"Shh," Sun Wan gestured to him to silence, picked a gap in the cloth curtain in front of him, and motioned to Liuli: "Look." β
Ruri followed her line of sight and saw a young man sitting there, talking, and behaving in a very polite manner.
Liuli glanced around again, but she didn't see anything special, she retracted and asked, "What did my sister tell me to see?" β
Sun Wan pulled the person away from the curtain and asked quietly, "Sister, how about that little Langjun?" β
"A talent, personable." Liuli told the truth.
"That's my second uncle's cousin, who is 18 years old this year," Sun Wan said, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.
Liuli suddenly realized that although Sun Wan called her sister, the two were actually seventeen, but Sun Wan's birthday was older than Liuli.
Liuli remembered that in her previous life, she often saw in TV dramas that when a big family said goodbye to their daughter, they would invite Xiaolangjun to their home and ask her daughter to take a look at her from a distance, which can be regarded as having taken a photo.
She felt that she knew Sun Wan's intention to invite her to come today, and said with a smile: "Since he is my sister's cousin, I must know the root of it, I just saw that he behaved politely, and he should be a good match." β
"So, you're in love?" Sun Wan asked happily.
Liuli felt that there was something wrong with this: "It's better for my sister to fall in love with herself, I don't think people are very accurate." After saying this, she was a little sad, and couldn't help but think of a man surnamed Zhao.
"What do I like?" Sun Wan was puzzled.
"Didn't my sister ask me to help you see your fiancΓ©?" Liuli also realized that there might be a misunderstanding between the two.
"No", Sun Wan couldn't laugh or cry, "This is my cousin, how can it be...... Besides, I've already set up a ......," she was a little shy when she said this, "This is what I was going to tell my sister about you, so I brought you here to see you." β
"Tell me?" Liuli was startled, and almost couldn't control the volume.
"That's right," Sun Wan took it for granted, "It's Sister Pearl who asked someone to tell you about it, and it came to my mother's ears in all directions, you know that my mother has always liked you, and I think that my second uncle's cousin has not yet married, so I think you are very compatible, so I asked me to quietly bring you to see each other." β
"So, it was my sister and your mother's idea?" Liuli was stunned.
"yes." Sun Wan nodded, "Otherwise, how dare I eavesdrop on my father." β
She said, how could her sister know Sun Wan, so it was, the eldest sister not only did not give up saying goodbye to herself, but also intensified her efforts, and she was so powerful.
For a while, Liuli really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
