Chapter 52 Disputes
After lunch, Tong Xiang freshened up, changed into more comfortable clothes and prepared to go out.
"Xiang'er, where are you going?"
As soon as Li went out, he saw Tong Xiang, who was dressed in new clothes, and walked up to ask with concern.
Tong Xiang looked at his mother and smiled, "I have something to go out for." “
This morning, the people from Rende Hall came here to make a fuss, and Tong Xiang didn't care about it at that time, just because their little hall master was not in a state in a daze.
But now that it's past noon, it's time for them to talk.
As soon as Li heard Tong Xiang's words, his face immediately showed worry.
"Xiang'er, how can you go out alone, or let Chu Xiao go with you, so that you can take care of it."
Since the last ibuprofen incident, the Li family has been more cautious in dealing with people in this city.
Now that this matter has not completely passed, if someone really takes advantage of the topic to play and deliberately embarrass Tong Xiang, she dare not think about the consequences.
Tong Xiang sighed helplessly when he heard this, "Mother, how old am I, can I still get lost by myself?" ”
In fact, Tong Xiang had really thought about asking Chu Xiao to come with him before, but he had been too troublesome for Chu Xiao recently, so he was embarrassed to say it.
But there won't be anything to do, she is going to visit in the open, and the people of Rendetang don't dare to do anything to her.
Besides, even if those people want to do it with themselves, it depends on whether they agree or not.
Li is still not at ease, he is such a daughter, if something really happens, it will be too late.
"Xiang'er, just listen to your mother, I don't want you to be embarrassed on the street."
Listening to Li's painstaking persuasion, Tong Xiang finally compromised.
"Okay, mother, don't talk about it, I'll go and call Chu Xiaoxing."
"If only you had said no, my mother wouldn't have delayed your time." As soon as Li heard Tong Xiang's words, a smile immediately appeared on his face, "You guys go and come back quickly, I'll cook and wait for you to come back." ”
Tong Xiang smiled and nodded, "Got it." ”
When Tong Xiang came to the room, Chu Xiao was reading a book, and recently, he had been working hard to enrich himself.
"So serious?"
Tong Xiang walked to Chu Xiao's side, and seeing that he hadn't reacted yet, he opened his mouth to ask.
Chu Xiao put down the book in his hand and raised his head to meet Tong Xiang's eyes, "Knowing that the person who came is you, there is nothing to worry about." ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Xiao slowly stood up, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Tong Xiang coughed twice in embarrassment, "Actually, I didn't want to trouble you, but my mother said that it is not safe outside now, so let me find someone to partner with." ”
Hearing that it was the Li family who said that they would go out together, Chu Xiao's heart was a little happy.
He held back the excitement in his heart and stared at Tong Xiang calmly.
"And what do you want to do?"
"Go to Rendetang." Tong Xiang responded without thinking.
Chu Xiao hesitated slightly, "It's not that I'm cowardly, the key is that we did hurt those people last night, and that kid also treated us as a thorn in the flesh, is it appropriate for us to go over?" ”
Tong Xiang sighed helplessly, "I can't bear the child to trap the wolf, if we don't go over, how can we find out who the man in black is?" ”
It wasn't that Chu Xiao said that Tong Xiang hadn't thought of it, but now things are getting more and more confusing, if she doesn't figure it out, she will definitely be sleepless day and night.
Chu Xiao wandered around the room for a few steps, his face worried, "Then let's bring some gifts when we go over." ”
"Why are you so nice to that kid all of a sudden?"
Tong Xiang couldn't believe his ears, although Chu Xiao was a relatively easy person to get along with on weekdays, he had never taken the initiative to buy gifts for anyone.
Looking at Tong Xiang's surprised expression, Chu Xiao was slightly embarrassed.
"I'm not thinking he's a kid anyway, as long as we can coax him, it won't be any trouble."
Chu Xiao's words were true, and Tong Xiang also felt that it was indeed a little inappropriate for him to go over empty-handed.
"The last time I met him at Zhiweiguan, we stopped by to buy him some pastries when we passed."
The two of them agreed on this matter and soon went out.
The streets are bustling with people, and the surrounding vendors are selling from time to time, so it's fun to walk in them.
It's just that Tong Xiang's heart is not on these things at this time, she just wants to know quickly what the identity of the man in black they met last night is.
The two of them didn't speak all the way, and finally stopped in front of the store of Zhiweiguan.
Zhiweiguan's business is extremely hot, Tong Xiang and they were a little late in the past, and there were more than a dozen people queuing in front of them.
Tong Xiang saw that the team had not moved for a long time, and couldn't help but feel anxious, "Otherwise, let's go over directly, there is no friendship anyway." ”
"Let's wait a little longer, there are only three people left."
Chu Xiao was also a little anxious in his heart, but he felt that since he had been waiting for so long, wouldn't it be a waste of his efforts to give up halfway now.
Tong Xiang couldn't bear it anymore, she glanced at Chu Xiao and chuckled, "Do you want to eat or give gifts?" ”
"For gifts, of course."
The weather is relatively hot, and the hot air makes people's mood become impetuous.
Chu Xiao, who had been basking in the sun for so long, was already upset and irritable at this time, and when he heard Tong Xiang's words just now, he naturally felt a little emotional.
Tong Xiang was also carried away by the high temperature at this time, and he didn't speak brainily.
"Anyway, this is my business, I said I don't need to buy it, that is, I don't need to buy it."
After finishing speaking, Tong Xiang turned around and prepared to leave.
But as soon as she turned around, her wrist was firmly grasped by Chu Xiao.
"What do you mean by your business, isn't this something we all have in common, when can you stop taking everything on yourself?"
Just when Tong Xiang didn't know how to respond, the eldest brother behind him coughed softly twice.
"Husband and wife should still value harmony when they get along, this lady, your father-in-law is also for your good, so don't argue with him."
Upon hearing this, Tong Xiang and Chu Xiao both calmed down.
Chu Xiao hurriedly let go of the hand that was holding Tong Xiang's arm, "Big brother, you misunderstood, we are not husband and wife." ”
The eldest brother behind him looked Chu Xiao and Tong Xiang up and down, smiling without saying a word.
Although he didn't speak, the smile on the corner of his mouth already explained his inner thoughts,
Tong Xiang coughed twice, his eyes staring at the eldest brother firmly, "Don't believe it, we're just brother and sister." ”
The eldest brother looked at Tong Xiang and smiled, "It has nothing to do with me what your relationship is, but the saying that everything is harmonious is definitely true." ”
Tong Xiang didn't want to explain anything to the eldest brother he didn't know, so he just smiled faintly and stopped talking.
After what happened just now, the atmosphere between Chu Xiao and Tong Xiang began to become a little awkward.
Tong Xiang turned his gaze to the side, his two index fingers hooked together and hidden under his sleeves, constantly spinning.
Chu Xiao didn't know what to say at this time, he glanced at Tong Xiang from time to time, but he didn't say a word for a long time.
When the two of them were embarrassed, a familiar voice came from behind them.
"What are you two doing here, if you don't know, you think you don't know."
Zhao Yiqing smiled as he walked towards Tong Xiang and Chu Xiao.
Tong Xiang and Chu Xiao raised their heads at the same time, and their eyes met unexpectedly.
Chu Xiao took this opportunity to smile at Tong Xiang, wanting to express his apology.
Tong Xiang also regretted it very much after calming down just now, after all, they had been living together for so long, and her words were indeed a little hurtful.
Now that Chu Xiao took the initiative to show favor to herself, Tong Xiang would definitely not drill the horns, and she smiled back.
Zhao Yiqing looked at the two people and seemed to be a little wrong, but he didn't ask.
As if nothing had happened, he looked at the two people in front of him with a smile, "What do you want, I will tell someone to get it for you, what kind of queue you have." ”
Chu Xiao smiled indifferently, "It's coming to us soon, so don't bother Brother Zhao." ”
Tong Xiang pursed his lips and sighed helplessly, "Why didn't Boss Zhao come earlier, so that we wouldn't have to be here for so long." ”
After finishing speaking, Tong Xiang looked up at the sky helplessly, he was afraid that he would be dark for a while if he was so exposed today.
Zhao Yiqing looked at Tong Xiang and gently pounded Chu Xiao's stomach with his elbow.
"Brother Chu, you don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, you don't know how to help Miss Tong cover up such a big sun?"
Chu Xiao was speechless for a moment, and raised his head awkwardly and put it on Tong Xiang's head.
"But it doesn't look any different."
Zhao Yiqing looked at Chu Xiao's serious appearance, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.
But these two people braved the sun so much, and it certainly wasn't just for a bite of dessert.
"Why did you come out at noon?"
Tong Xiang didn't want to involve Zhao Yiqing in this matter, after all, Zhao Yiqing was just a businessman after all, and he and he had only known him for a few days.
She looked at Zhao Yiqing and smiled, "It's not that the little brother in the family wants to eat your egg yolk crisp, so I have to rush the two of us out to buy it for him." ”
Chu Xiao also chimed in, "Brother Zhao, it's just that your egg yolk crisp is so delicious, Xiaohua said that if we don't buy it back for him, he won't endorse it." ”
As he spoke, Chu Xiao shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression.
Zhao Yiqing didn't notice anything wrong, but laughed twice.
"I didn't expect that little guy in your family to be so disobedient, and I didn't expect the two of you to be planted in the hands of a little guy."
