Volume 1 First Encounter Chapter 12 Chewing the Tongue

It rained that night, the drizzle was not big, it was rustling, but it was very urgent, even if you had an umbrella, you would be wet by the rain, and it rained for two days in a row, and many places were waterlogged, and it was very inconvenient to walk, so many people on Wanfu Street could not go out.

Li Jiaoer simply packed up her baggage, and together with Yuntuan, she temporarily lived in the Karakura Pavilion.

Li Fu had already heard his daughter say about the treasure in his palm, and what he cared about was not that his daughter wanted to use this to coerce Xue Zhen to agree and leave, but that he was happy to know that his daughter had the heart to inherit his deceased wife's skills, so when he was alone at home for the past two days, he cried for a while, sighed for a while, and laughed for a while.

But of course, Li Jiaoer didn't tell Li Fu her guess, there is no conclusion for the time being, why should she say it, but it makes her father worry even more?

It's just that the Li family has a big reputation on Wanfu Street, and now the neighbors on the street are trapped at home by the rain, and they always have to have a short idle tooth in one place, so the rain is still falling, and the matter of Li Jiaoer's living in the Clever Pavilion has spread all over the streets and alleys.

The neighbors couldn't think of any envoys of the Chen State, nothing in their hands, and only talked about how Mrs. Shizi didn't live at home during the Chinese New Year before, so why did she live in the Jiqiao Pavilion this time?

When the rain stopped on the third day, the neighbors didn't discuss the length, and besides, the Li family was very popular, and everyone liked Li Jiaoer, so no one made up something ugly.

Only the young woman who loved to eat melon seeds before was disdainful, and she was about to go out when the rain stopped today, and she happened to bump into Aunt Zhang who was walking out.

She knew that Aunt Zhang and the Li family had the closest relationship, so she stopped her, grabbed a handful of melon seeds from her small purse, and asked with a smile:

"Aunt Zhang is so early, where is this going?"

Aunt Zhang was chatty and warm-hearted, and when she heard her ask, she stopped and said with a smile: "Mrs. Wu is also going out?" It's been raining for the past few days, and my rheumatism has been done again, so I'm going to see Dr. Li to take a look. ”

Mrs. Wu was married to Wanfu Street from the suburbs of Beijing, her mother's family was a small businessman, and her husband's family was the cook of Xiyunlou in Beijing. And she herself often goes in and out of some high-ranking households, doing some pulp, washing, weaving and mending work for people.

Sure enough, it was to Renxintang, a widow and a widower, tsk, and I don't know what their relationship is.

Wu Niangzi slandered, and said with a smile on her face: "Her aunt, it's sunny this day, why are you in such a hurry to see?" ”

Aunt Zhang is walking the streets and alleys, and she is a widow of this age, what kind of gossip has she not heard? As soon as she saw Wu Niangzi's eyes, she knew what she was thinking, but she was not angry, but replied lukewarmly:

"I'm happy to see my illness, but if I'm not happy, I won't look at it, where can I use Wu Niangzi to help me pick a time?"

Mrs. Wu was stabbed, rolled her eyes in her heart, and asked: "I heard that Mrs. Shizi recently went back to her parents' house to live, and my aunt went to see the sky, and it was not good to meet other girls?" ”

"I'm going to see a doctor, what is Mrs. Guan Shizi doing? Madame is not such a broken mouth. Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

Wu Niangzi fell into the upper hand, and no longer involved her, so she gossiped about the topic:

"Auntie, don't be careful, I'm just curious, why did Mrs. Shizi go back to her parents' house? It's the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, isn't that right? ”

Aunt Zhang felt that Mrs. Wu was very annoying, and said coldly: "Madame's mother's house is here, she is happy to come back, so she will naturally come back." ”

"Tut, my aunt is really good at laughing, even if she is a daughter-in-law of someone like us, she can't say that she will go back to her parents' house when she goes back to her parents' house, let alone the big family? Speaking of which," Wu Niangzi lowered her voice slightly, and said mysteriously, "I've heard that Mrs. Shizi doesn't like Shizi." ”

"......" Aunt Zhang hates her even more.

Li Jiaoer grew up under the watchful eyes of these neighbors, and they all liked her for laughing, good personality, and sweet mouth.

Why is there such a daughter-in-law to chew her tongue?

Thinking about it, Aunt Zhang's tone was raised instead: "Ouch, where did Mrs. Wu listen to the nonsense?" Don't make people laugh. ”

With that, she picked up her leg and was about to leave.

Mrs. Wu said that she was addicted, so she stopped her and said: "Don't worry, auntie, I'll tell you, my words are not nonsense, but I heard the young lady of the Guanshan family say that the Hou Shizi of Anyang doesn't even enter the lady's house often." ”

As she spoke, she pursed her lips and smiled proudly: "Why else, it's been three years, and she doesn't even have a child?" ”

Aunt Zhang was so bored that she was about to leave, but she suddenly remembered that when Li Jiaoer came back that day, her eyes were slightly red.

She is the person who loves to protect the media the most, and she can see at a glance whether her daughter-in-law is doing well or not, so she also has doubts in her heart.

But she is confused, it doesn't mean that she likes to listen to others arrange Li Jiaoer.

The Li family is life-saving to their mother and son.

Thinking about it, Aunt Zhang immediately took a sip, squinted at Wu Niangzi, and said coldly: "Wu Niangzi has been married for two years, isn't there no movement in her stomach?" Will not your man come into your house? ”

Wu Niangzi thought about something to ask, but she was unexpectedly poked in the heart, her eyes suddenly widened, and the melon seeds stopped swallowing, and she screamed: "What are you talking about?" ”

"It's human talk," Aunt Zhang sneered, "Or Mrs. Wu will also go and take a look, Dr. Li has made great achievements in gynecology." Your aunt, I am from here, it is good to raise children, my mind is on that little person all day long, and my eyes will not glance at others. ”

"You-" Mrs. Wu didn't expect Aunt Zhang to say so bluntly, so angry that she forgot to get down to business.

Aunt Zhang was like a fight, rolled her eyes with her neck up, and walked away.

Mrs. Wu looked at Aunt Zhang's back, took a sip hard, slammed the door and went home.

It startled the other neighbors who had just left the house, and looked at the closed door of her house for some reason.

In the Karakuri Pavilion, Li Jiao'er woke up early, and after washing and cleaning up, she and Qin Le in the room as usual faced Tang Ying's codex, muttering and studying.

One of them loves to think, the other is capable, and although the mechanism is ingenious, it is not very difficult, but it is difficult for ordinary people to think about it, so the two of them pondered it for two days, and really figured out a rough idea, and began to improve.

When she was busy, Li Jiaoer suddenly heard a mess outside.

It's Li Jiaoer's grandmother, and Mrs. Zhang is back.

Li Jiaoer just heard Mrs. Zhang's loud voice coming from the front store, and she didn't care about Qin Le, and hurriedly put on her shoes and ran out.

Frightened, Yun Tuan reminded behind: "Miss, watch your step." ”

And Li Jiaoer had already run outside, and saw an old lady with silver hair, a slightly yellow complexion, a strong spirit, and a pile of wrinkles on her face, passing through the front store and just walking into the courtyard.

"Grandmother-" Before Li Jiao'er's words fell, the person had already rushed over and hugged Mrs. Zhang's neck and called out coquettishly.
