Chapter 202: Sour Plum Soup
"Girl, you drink a bowl of sour plum soup to quench the fire."
The sour plum soup was very cold, and the outside of the porcelain bottle was soaked with water droplets, and the maid Xiaomei took off the bottle and handed it to Xu Jiaojiao in a bowl.
Xu Jiaojiao took a sip, her heart was cold, and she sat silently on the chair and was silent.
"Girl, I think it's better to recognize Li Jin's face now than later, and I can still withdraw now." Xiaomei saw that Xu Jiaojiao's face was pale, and persuaded.
"Xiaomei, do you think Li Jin will ruin my reputation?" Xu Jiaojiao now regrets not being at the beginning.
It's hard to say, from the last time Li Jin proudly showed off with the girl by the lotus bush, it can be seen that this person is a frivolous and dissolute person, and now he is annoyed, I am afraid that he is barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes.
"Girl, it's better to tell the lord and the wife about this." Xiaomei whispered.
Xiaomei vaguely felt that this matter was out of control, and if the whole town was in a uproar, it would affect Xu Jiaojiao's reputation. As a personal maid, she must be the first to be punished.
She regretted a little that she hadn't stopped Xu Jiaojiao and Li Jin from having a private meeting before.
Anyway, they will be punished, so it is better to tell the old lady now and let the two of them come forward, presumably Li Jin will be jealous.
"Can't tell them." Xu Jiaojiao said.
Xiaomei said in a low voice: "I think the old lady will know sooner or later, since sooner or later she will know, it is better to take the initiative to tell now." ”
Now take the initiative to tell it, and you can be exonerated from the crime.
"Nope." Xu Jiaojiao came up stubbornly, she felt that the matter with Li Jin was a big stain on her, she didn't want to mention it in front of her parents, she could hide it for a while, and if she really found out in the future, she would talk about it later.
Xiaomei looked at Xu Jiaojiao, only to feel that her girl was like an ostrich and didn't care about her head.
is stubborn, and he is also a master who does not enter oil and salt.
"Don't worry Xiaomei, if something happens to you, I can still protect my girl." Xu Jiaojiao said.
Xiaomei sighed in her heart, no matter how domineering the girl was, she didn't have to say anything to her, she didn't beat or scold, and she treated her as a sister.
That's why she really plans for the girl.
Xiaomei played a roundabout tactic and said with a smile: "Girl, you don't tell the old lady." But I'm afraid this thing is a thunderbolt, let's extinguish it so that it can't be split. Otherwise, let's discuss with the third brother of the Bai family? After all, he and Li Jin were classmates. ”
Through the shadow wall, Xu Jiaojiao saw the busy figure of Bai Sanzhuang outside.
The heart is full of mixed tastes.
The entire Nanguan Town knew that Bai Sanzhuang refused to join the Xu family, which made her very faceless.
Bai Sanzhuang knew about her and Li Jin, and reminded her that she was still angry at the time, and Bai Sanzhuang was jealous.
After Bai Sanzhuang and Tian Maimiao got married, Xu Jiaojiao was even more angry, tore a few fans and cut a few satins.
I was once annoyed that Bai Sanzhuang actually chose Tian Maimiao, a pig-killing girl who was inferior to her everywhere.
Now let her talk to Bai Sanzhuang about Li Jin, she would rather die than lose face in front of Bai Sanzhuang.
And Bai Sanzhuang was about to leave the Xu family shop in the autumn, and when she thought that Bai Sanzhuang was getting married in the autumn, Xu Jiaojiao was confused.
"I don't want Bai Sanzhuang to see me laughing." Xu Jiaojiao lost her usual flying and domineering, and lowered her head and said in a muffled voice.
"The girl's words are wrong, the little brother of the Bai family is not that kind of person. Although the little brother of the Bai family has not become an uncle, he even praises his character, and he will never look at your jokes. Xiaomei Yin Yin persuaded.
Xu Jiaojiao was silent for a long time, pushed the cup of sour plum soup, and said, "Don't discuss it with him." Let's wait for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to see Li Jin's reaction. ”
Once Xu Jiaojiao decided, the nine cows couldn't pull it back, so Xiaomei had to silently agree.
After Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew got out of school, they met Li Jin in the courtyard.
Li Jin changed into clothes, and the cloth shoes on his feet were covered with mud.
Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew became more and more disdainful and disgusted with Li Jin, and they didn't greet each other when they met, and passed by.
Li Jin nodded with a sneer, good, good, I look down on him.
Xu Jiaojiao looked down on him, Bai Sanzhuang looked down on him, and even failed in the government examination, but he didn't even get a show, but the fourth child of the Bai family won the first place in Tongsheng and was escorted to Huaishui Academy.
And that Bai Zhaomei, what kind of thing, even dared to pull him.
Li Jin cursed hatefully while thinking.
Bai Zhaomei took Dalang Sanlang to the door of Xu's shop, and saw Bai Sanzhuang taking inventory.
"Third brother."
"Third uncle."
"Fifth brother, Dalang Saburo is here, come in and drink sour plum soup." Bai Dazhuang greeted.
Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew walked into the shop.
"Are you going to come to see me after school, or do you have something to talk about at home?" Bai Dazhuang asked.
Bai Zhaomei drank sour plum soup and didn't know how to speak.
It's too embarrassing, even in the face of the third brother.
"No, I'm just here to see the third brother." Bai Zhaomei said while drinking sour plum soup.
"Third brother, after you and Sister Mai Miao got married, didn't you work here?" Bai Zhaomei had nothing to say.
Bai Sanzhuang's ears were red, and he calmly said in his brother's tone: "You can't be a buddy for the rest of your life, I have seen several shops, and when the time comes, I will sell the silk of Nashudi." I'm going to go to Shu to do business at that time. ”
looked at Bai Zhaomei, and said with a straight face: "Don't let the family know about this first." ”
Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew nodded.
Da Lang also said: "I will follow the third uncle to do business in the future." ”
After drinking sour plum soup for a while, Bai Zhaomei talked for a while about the private school in the village, Bai Sanzhuang asked: "Fifth brother, what are you looking for me?" Do you need silver in school? ”
Bai Zhaomei waved her hand again and again and said, "No." ”
Bai Sanzhuang frowned.
San Lang said: "Fifth uncle, just say it." ”
Bai Zhaomei said hesitantly: "Third brother, your former classmate Li Jin." ”
Bai Sanzhuang was surprised, what happened to Li Jin? When he was studying, he would look down on Li Jin's inflammatory, but there was no conflict with him.
Since he came to work in Xu's shop, the two have hardly had any intersection.
He only heard that he failed the government test again.
"Did he mess with you?" Bai Sanzhuang asked.
Bai Zhaomei shook her head, gritted her teeth and said, "I was standing in the corner of the wall with Dalang Saburo at noon eating buns, and I heard someone talking outside the wall, and I heard that Li Jin was arguing with a girl. What to eat the Xu family, return the letter, ask for a veil, the girl wants to cut it in two, he threatens the girl......"
Bai Sanzhuang's face changed a few times when he heard this.
Immediately understood.
Thinking of noon, Xu Jiaojiao came to the shop with a pale face, without the publicity of the past, as if she was hiding something.
There was quite an embarrassment between him and Xu Jiaojiao, and he was not easy to ask.
The girl who wanted to argue with Li Jin was her.
Xu Jiaojiao has been close to Li Jin in the past few months, and he reminded her that she was not buying his anger.
"Third brother, then Li Jin is bad, he said let the sister of the Xu family take a look." Bai Zhaomei looked worried.
Da Lang added: "I don't know what kind of tricks I will play. ”
Bai Sanzhuang said: "You guys are right to tell me, you guys are staring at Li Jin, if he has any movement, he has to tell me."
Bai Zhaomei nodded.
Bai Sanzhuang told the three of them to keep it strictly confidential, and no one could tell them about it, so the uncle and nephew patted their chests and promised.
In the next two days, Li Jin was extremely honest and did not make any trouble.
Bai Sanzhuang wanted to find a suitable opportunity to talk to Xu Jiaojiao about this, and it was best for her to tell the shopkeeper Xu in person.
Xu Jiaojiao never came to the shop.
Before Bai Sanzhuang could come up with a complete strategy, the whole town was rumored that the only daughter of the shopkeeper Xu was going to marry the scholar Li Jin.
