Chapter 30: Gift-giving causes controversy
In the face of Huang Yingying's unreasonable trouble, Wang Xiaohua did not get used to it, and turned around and left directly with the package.
"Then sit here."
Who knows, Huang Yingying was immediately unhappy when she saw Wang Xiaohua's behavior, and pulled her arm and didn't let go.
"Mother, just let me see what's wrong?"
Wang Xiaohua was too lazy to talk nonsense with Huang Yingying, and shook it hard, wanting to get rid of Huang Yingying.
Who knows, the force is too strong, causing the triangular scarf in his arms to fall.
In an instant, all kinds of supplies inside the triangular scarf were scattered all over the ground.
Huang Yingying had never seen such a good thing, looking at the soap, shampoo, and maltose on the ground, her eyes lit up.
"Mother, there are so many good Dingxi, are they all given to us by Lin Haoxi?"
She happily wanted to squat down and pick up something, but Wang Xiaohua grabbed her collar and threw her back.
"Don't touch these things."
Huang Yingying staggered back two steps, and roared a little angrily, "Mother, are you guarding against me?" β
"Yes, it's you who is guarding against it, don't want to pay attention to these supplies." Wang Xiaohua was also a little angry because of Huang Yingying's tone, and replied loudly.
What she is most worried about is this daughter-in-law who likes to gossip everywhere, the so-called wealth is not exposed, but this child who lacks heart.
If there is something good at home, I can't wait for the whole village to know.
When the people in the village find out, the trouble will come one after another.
said and said, scolded and scolded, but she just didn't change and still went her own way.
That's why she has some good things in her hands, so she will hide them, for fear that this stupid child will talk about it everywhere.
Huang Yingying, who didn't know Wang Xiaohua's hard work, heard Wang Xiaohua's angry words, and really thought that she was secretly hiding good things.
When I think of marrying into this family, I often have a meal without a meal, if it weren't for Lin Haoxi's recent comeback.
She didn't have meat and fish to eat, and when she thought of this, she felt very aggrieved, and sat directly on the ground and cried.
Huang Yingying's crying was so loud that it woke up Lu Jiaqing and Lu Qinzhou, who had fallen asleep.
Even Lin Yuxi, who had just fallen asleep, heard Huang Yingying's crying and listened to the quarrel next door, which made her have no desire to sleep. Hope.
I had to sit up from the bed and listen carefully to the movement next door.
Lu Qinzhou and Lu Jiaqing, who got up when they heard the movement, rushed to the hall with their clothes on.
When they saw Huang Yingying, who was sitting on the ground crying, and Wang Xiaohua, who was helpless, they immediately understood.
Lu Jiaqing hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to help Huang Yingying up, "What's the matter?" Why are you sitting on the floor at night? β
"You don't care about me, your whole family bullies me, if you have good things, you will give them to your younger brother, and if your mother has good things, you will hide them, and no one will treat me as a family."
Listening to Huang Yingying's accusation, Lu Qinzhou pursed his lips and didn't dare to squeak, so he could only stand silently beside Wang Xiaohua, accidentally saw the triangular scarf in her arms, and asked curiously.
"Mother, what is this?"
If he remembers correctly, this triangular scarf seems to be Lin Zhiqing's.
Wang Xiaohua didn't dare to tell her son, she accepted Lin Zhiqing's gift, so vague that she didn't know how to speak.
When Huang Yingying saw Wang Xiaohua like this, she hurriedly stood up and complained, "Lin Zhiqing gave us a lot of things for our mother, she wanted to hide them and didn't use them for me." β
"Who said it was for me? I'm keeping it for the time being, and I'll return it early tomorrow morning. Wang Xiaohua didn't want to quarrel with Huang Yingying anymore, so she had to explain in a suppressed voice.
Lu Jiaqing, who finally figured out the reason for the quarrel between the two, hurriedly took his daughter-in-law's hand and comforted, "Okay, I'll buy you tomorrow what you want, okay?" β
"Are you stupid, don't you need money to buy it yourself? You only make a few bucks, I don't care, Mom must take it out today, otherwise.... I'll go back to my mother's house. Huang Yingying put on an attitude of not giving up until she reached her goal, and sat directly on the ground to cheat.
Wang Xiaohua looked at Huang Yingying's splattered appearance helplessly, sighed, and took out a piece of soap from it.
"Take it, remember, I'll find a way to make up for Lin Zhiqing tomorrow, and sew up your mouth if you quarrel again."
Huang Yingying looked at the soap handed over by Wang Xiaohua, a little unwilling, obviously there were more things, why only give one piece.
However, Lu Jiaqing wanted to calm things down, so he took the soap and appeased Wang Xiaohua and his daughter-in-law, "Got it, mother, thank you, mother." β
After finishing speaking, he took his daughter-in-law, who was reluctant to leave, and walked to the room.
Huang Yingying scolded all the way back to the room, and it took a while before stopping.
The noisy hall finally quieted down, and Lu Qinzhou and Wang Xiaohua talked for a while, and then returned to their respective rooms.
As soon as Lu Qinzhou returned to the room, he heard a knocking sound from next door.
The wall near his wooden bed was Lin Haoxi's room, and the two of them shared the same wall, so they could hear it by tapping on each other's rooms.
Lin Haoxi, who had never slept all the time, sat on the bed and banged the wall with wood, hoping to get a response from Lu Qinzhou.
After a while, I heard Lu Qinzhou's beating sound of the same frequency.
After finding that Lu Qinzhou was not asleep, Lin Yixi turned around and got out of bed and went to the kitchen, looking for the bamboo used to burn the fire before.
Cut two round hollow bamboo knots, then go back to the room, seal the bottom tightly with papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and thread twine on the bottom.
Finally, take the bamboo knot to the window.
It just so happened that the window next door to the room where she lived was also the window of Lu Qinzhou's room.
The windows of both rooms are next to the back hill and there is nothing but grass.
Lin Haoxi leaned in front of the window, threw the bamboo knot at the window of Lu Qinzhou's room, and shouted quietly.
"Lu Qinzhou, pick up the bamboo and put it on your ears."
Lu Qinzhou, who had not yet fallen asleep, was lying on the bed, and after hearing Lin Xixi's voice, he felt lying on the window and picking up the bamboo.
After seeing Lu Qinzhou pick up the bamboo, Lin Xixi excitedly took the bamboo back to the bed and shouted nervously at the bamboo.
"Lu Qinzhou, do you hear that?"
Lu Qinzhou, who was lying back on the bed, put the bamboo knot on his ear in confusion according to Lin Xixi's method.
When he heard the sound coming from the bamboo, he threw it away in fear and looked at the bamboo on the bed in horror.
Lin Xixi, who did not receive a response, picked up the wooden block and knocked it on the wall a few times in confusion.
Lu Qinzhou, who was frightened, came back to his senses when he heard the wall vibrate, hesitated for a moment, and then picked up the bamboo knot and put it on his ear.
Lin Haoxi didn't know about Lu Qinzhou's situation, so he could only keep testing, "Qinzhou, do you hear?" When you speak, speak into the bamboo. β
"Hear, you're not asleep yet?" Lu Qinzhou, who was relieved, picked up the bamboo in a daze, and replied to the bamboo at a loss.
"Qinzhou, I'm sorry, because my reckless behavior caused Aunt Wang and sister-in-law to quarrel." After Lin Haoxi heard Lu Qinzhou's voice, he quickly picked up the bamboo and apologized.
Her original intention was good intentions, but if this kindness made the Lu family quarrel, it would not be worth it.
Lu Qinzhou didn't expect Lin Haoxi to not sleep so late, he was blaming himself for what happened just now, he secretly pursed his lips and laughed, and replied softly.
"Fool, this matter has nothing to do with you, they will quarrel every day."
For some reason, when Lin Haoxi heard Lu Qinzhou's deep voice, his heart was extremely steady, as if he was by his side.
During this time, she always had nightmares, dreaming that she was back to the dark days she once had.
returned to the days when he was sold by Song Guochao and Lin Ruochu.
As a result, she couldn't sleep well and didn't dare to close her eyes.
Tonight, holding the bamboo in her arms, she felt very down-to-earth and fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, it was still dawn.
Huang Yingying got up early and sneaked into Wang Xiaohua's room, tiptoeing to open the wooden box she was marrying.
I took the supplies from last night's triangular scarf and moved everything out.
After that, he left the room in the dark.
