Chapter Forty-Eight: Come to My House for Dinner
Lu Li raised his eyebrows in surprise, looking at Su Xiaoling, whose face was red and swollen, he didn't respond, but subconsciously looked at Su Xiaoman, what happened during the time when he was not at home?
Receiving the man's surprised eyes, Su Xiaoman sighed helplessly, but did not speak.
Zhang Xiuqin lost face, she wanted to embarrass Su Xiaoman but couldn't do it, but she was also made unable to get off the stage by Su Xiaoman, and now her daughter asked for things shamelessly again, she was angry for a while, and she didn't care about Su Xiaoling on the ground, got up and ran out.
Su Qi saw that the situation was not good, for fear that Zhang Xiuqin would be angry and do something for a while, so he hurriedly followed.
But in the blink of an eye, only Lu Li and Su Xiaoling were left in the house, Su Xiaoman stared coldly at Su Xiaoling on the ground, and the guests were full of meaning: "Your mother is gone, you still don't leave?" ”
"Sister Xiaoman." Su Xiaoling seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, she got up and patted the soil on her body, and stepped forward with a smile, "I was wrong just now, I shouldn't have stolen your clothes, but I also apologized?" You should forgive me, right? ”
Fang just gave her a big name, but now she has a request for herself, and immediately changed her name, which is really ironic.
Su Xiaoman sat on the chair, his fingers clasped the tabletop, his heart was churning with anger, and he didn't want to pay attention to Xiaoling at all.
Looking at her appearance, coupled with Su Xiaoling's words, Lu Li also guessed what had just happened.
"Sister Xiaoman, you have something to say." Xiao Ling leaned forward again, "Otherwise, you tell me where you bought your red dress, and I'll ask my mother to buy one too." ”
After speaking, she bit her lip and looked at the gilded hairpin on the table again, and pointed her finger, "And this, brother-in-law, where did you buy it, I'll also buy one to wear." I think I must look better than Sister Xiaoman when I wear this hairpin, brother-in-law, do you say yes? ”
Xiao Man was so angry that his face turned green, "Su Xiaoling, what do you mean?" ”
"What do you mean?" Su Xiaoling pretended to be innocent, looked at her with blinking eyes, and bit her lip was even simple.
"It's boring, you can go." Su Xiaoman's face was stiff, and he almost threw the person out directly.
Su Xiaoling pouted, "It's so dignified, why do you have to let me-"
"Are you leaving?" Xiao Man got up and was angry.
Seeing this, Su Xiaoling couldn't help but glance at Lu Li, if he was willing to help him say a few words......
Unexpectedly, Lu Li also looked cold, Xiaoling knew that she had no hope, so she left in a huff.
When Su Xiaoman was not married, Lu Li's lesson to Zhang Xiuqin was already known to the whole village, she could offend Su Xiaoman, but she didn't dare to anger Lu Li.
Thinking about it, she is also a good look, everyone who sees it praises her good looks, and the men in the same village love her very much, and more and more people are proposing marriage.
However, that Lu Li was cold to herself, and Su Xiaoling became angry when she thought about it.
Even though she wouldn't marry a rural villager like Lu Li, if she could make Su Xiaoman angry because of this, Xiaoling would still be happy to seduce Lu Li, but unfortunately, the other party was an ice lump and didn't understand anything.
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoling felt more and more bored, she touched her increasingly swollen face, pouted dissatisfiedly, and prepared to go home to hold Zhang Xiuqin accountable.
Since the family left one by one, the house finally returned to quiet, but Su Xiaoman's anger had not dissipated, and after she sat down, she poured several glasses of cold water, but failed to extinguish the anger in her heart.
Lu Li couldn't help but rub her head and said softly, "What's wrong just now, I haven't seen you so angry." ”
In his impression, Su Xiaoman blushes easily, has a soft temperament, and never gets so angry easily, and he doesn't know what Su Xiaoling did, so that Su Xiaoman scolded her in front of him.
"She stole my clothes," Xiaoman complained aggrievedly, "It's the one you gave me, I didn't want to wear it myself, she dared to put it on without my consent, and she spun it around, I ...... I'm dying of rage! ”
As she spoke, Su Xiaoman told the story as it was, and as she spoke, she couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes.
The things that are regarded as treasures are being played with by Su Xiaoling, who can bear this breath?
In the past, Su Xiaoling loved to rob her things, and she didn't cherish her well, Su Xiaoman was distressed, and she couldn't be comforted when she complained to her father, but was scolded by Zhang Xiuqin angrily.
What's more, today is different from the past, this dress is the first dress Lu Li gave her, and it is also the first gift.
"Xiaoman, don't think about those bad things, try this hairpin?" Lu Li picked up the hairpin on the table and gestured twice at Xiao Man, raising his eyebrows and flatteringly.
Xiao Man blinked his eyes, took a deep breath and smiled, "Okay, I'll try it in front of the mirror." ”
The past is gone, and now that Lu Li is behind her, she no longer has to worry about being afraid that her things will be snatched away.
According to the agreed day, tomorrow is the day when it is time to go to Tianyi Pavilion to hand over embroidery, which is also the first embroidery handed over by Su Xiaoman after the New Year.
Different from before, in addition to handkerchiefs and fans, there are also some silk silks embroidered with different patterns, although the quantity is small, but the advantage is that there are many patterns and high quality.
Early the next morning, Su Xiaoman and Lu Li got up early and went down the mountain, and as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw a funeral procession coming from afar, and it was Liu Zhicheng who walked in front!
The two were busy making way for the funeral team, watching the people gradually walk in and away, and the skinny Liu Zhicheng walked in front with drooping eyes, without even looking at the two of them.
And Li Xin followed behind Liu Zhicheng, wearing linen and filial piety, but there were no tears on his face. Li Shu, who was supposed to appear in this team, also disappeared, which was really strange.
Su Xiaoman looked at Lu Li in surprise and muttered, "How could it be him, could it be that Chen Suzhen is gone?" ”
Lu Li clenched Xiao Man's hand, glanced at the team for the last time, and immediately turned around: "Probably, I heard that it won't work a year ago, let's hurry up, so that we can buy something while the market is not dispersed." ”
"Hey, okay."
Today is the day when Tianyi Pavilion opened for the first time after the Chinese New Year, Xiaoman and Lu Li not only brought embroidery, but also brought other things, which is not only congratulations, but also thanks for taking care.
Shopkeeper Zhao accepted the gift with a smile, and then put away Su Xiaoman's embroidery one by one, "Miss Xiaoman's craftsmanship is getting better and better, these things, I look at them and buy them." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao laughed. Xiaoman blushed embarrassedly.
Tianyi Pavilion opened for the first time in the New Year, and the people who came to buy things broke through the threshold, plus Xiaoman and Lu Li still had something to do, so the three of them didn't talk much, handed over the embroidery and left.
The first market of the new year is very lively, walking in it, the sound of selling is endless, because it is still cold, the steamed buns and steamed buns are still emitting hot white smoke, and the fragrance is everywhere.
Xiao Man was very curious to see anything, but after a while, Lu Li's hands were full of all kinds of food, and Xiao Man took the sugar gourd he had just bought, and narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.
The woman in red was particularly obvious in the crowd, but Lu Li still followed inch by inch, for fear that if she didn't pay attention, she would lose it.
"Xiaoman!"
Someone called her out of nowhere, and Xiao Man hurriedly stopped, "Lu Li, did you hear that?" Somebody called me. ”
Lu Li nodded, took advantage of his height to look around, and finally saw Mrs. Wei in a shop selling noodles.
"Over there, I'll take you there." Lu Li hugged Xiao Man's thin waist and easily shuttled through the crowd, but he arrived in front of Mrs. Wei in a moment.
Mrs. Wei only brought a maid, and when she saw Xiao Man coming, she hurriedly beckoned: "Here." ”
Looking at Xiao Man's tightly bound hands around her waist, Mrs. Wei pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes full of teasing.
Xiao Man immediately blushed, she pushed Lu Li embarrassedly, Lu Li immediately let go of Xiao Man, and the two of them walked to Mrs. Wei's position one after the other and sat down, and put all the things they had just bought on the table.
As soon as the two of them sat down, the noodles ordered by Mrs. Wei were also on the table, looking at the noodles with little water and no condiments, Xiao Man couldn't help frowning, "Mrs. Wei, is this the noodles you ordered?" ”
Mrs. Wei smiled, "Yes, the cook at home hasn't come back yet, so I can only come out to eat." ”
Outsiders were present, Mrs. Wei was naturally not good at moving chopsticks, she looked at Xiao Man with a smile, and asked, "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you don't like this noodle very much?" ”
Xiao Man pouted, seeing that the shopkeeper and the buddy were not there, she approached Mrs. Wei and whispered: "To say something unpleasant, the noodles I make are better than this." ”
After seeing each other so many times, Mrs. Wei is indeed gentle and kind, so Xiao Man dares to speak like this, otherwise she may not be guessed.
Mrs. Wei smiled lightly, took the chopsticks and played with the noodles in the bowl, "Indeed, this noodle doesn't look very delicious." ”
Immediately, she sighed, helpless: "It's a pity that there is no way, the cook will not come back until the day after tomorrow, and only this shop has opened its doors in the past two days, so I can only come here to eat." ”
"In that case, it's better to go to my house for dinner," Xiao Man said sincerely: "Madame bought my embroidery and helped me a lot, and you are still so good, why don't you go to our house for dinner?" ”
After speaking, she looked at Lu Li and asked the other party with her eyes if she could agree.
Lu Li nodded, "It's up to the lady to decide." ”
Now, on the contrary, Mrs. Wei was a little embarrassed, she looked at the maid she was carrying, and said with some embarrassment: "How embarrassing is this, besides-"
"Madam, aren't you afraid that my cooking will not be delicious?" Xiaoman is coquettish.
Mrs. Wei hurriedly shook her head and explained embarrassedly: "It's just that if I want to go, I have to take my husband with me, I'm afraid Miss Su will find it too troublesome." ”
She is very interested in trying Xiaoman's craft, but unfortunately her husband has been busy lately, and she doesn't know if he has time to go to Xiaoman's house with him.
