Chapter 562: An Awkward Dinner
Leng Ming's words made Luo Xue a little embarrassed, on such an occasion, he was a big man who served vegetables for himself, which made others know, and it was strange if he didn't misunderstand.
"Thanks, I mean, I don't have a good throat today and want to eat something light."
Light?
Leng Ming's eyes scanned for a week, and when he saw the green vegetables, he picked them up again and sent them to Luo Xue.
Luo Xue is not a person who likes to be public, and she doesn't like Leng Ming to show kindness to her in public, so she directly blocked Leng Ming's hand with the chopsticks in her hand.
"I don't need you to clip it to me, I can do it myself."
Leng Ming's hand hung in mid-air, obviously a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Luo Lan was busy playing a round there,
"Ming'er, Luo Xue doesn't like others to pick up vegetables for her, you can eat it yourself."
Leng Ming's face turned red, he sighed, put the green vegetables in his hand back into his bowl, lowered his head, and secretly stuffed the green vegetables into his mouth.
Looking at this scene, the corners of Leng Xi's mouth were covered with a faint mockery, and Yu Qiaoqiao was like no one, eating herself while giving Xiaobao vegetables, without looking at Leng Xi at all.
In order to show his status at home, Leng Xi picked up a piece of pork ribs and sent it to Yu Qiaoqiao's bowl, which made Yu Qiaoqiao a little surprised, for so many years, he was the first time to pick up vegetables for himself, and while secretly happy, he was also full of puzzlement.
Leng Xi probably didn't know what Yu Qiaoqiao liked to eat, he saw Yu Qiaoqiao eating that piece of pork ribs, and instantly felt satisfied, so he sandwiched a piece of braised pork and sent it to her bowl.
Yu Qiaoqiao shook her head as she returned the piece of meat to him,
"This meat is too fatty, I can't eat it."
This......
What is the difference between this scene and Leng Ming, who was directly rejected just now?
Leng Xi instantly looked at Yu Qiaoqiao with a blue face, "Don't you love meat?" ”
Yu Qiaoqiao didn't look at him squarely, and replied directly:
"When did I say I love meat? You have no idea what I like to eat. ”
"You ......"
Leng Xi snorted coldly with his nose and roared in a low voice,
"I don't know what to do, it's because this king takes you too seriously. ”
"Thank you Lord Xi for your love, Qiaoqiao deserves it."
After saying this, she directly twisted her face to the side, lowered her head and began to eat the contents of the bowl, completely ignoring Leng Xi.
At this time, Leng Xi's embarrassment was no worse than Leng Ming just now, and he secretly decided in his heart that when he went home in a while, he would definitely teach this woman a good lesson.
Leng Yu still went her own way to give Luo Lan the dishes she liked to eat, and Luo Lan also ate them one by one, and only the two of them seemed to be more harmonious at this table.
At the end of the feast, Luo Lan took Luo Xue around the Guogong Mansion, and let her get acquainted with the situation here, and when they came to the back garden, they came to the pavilion together and sat down, Luo Lan asked with concern:
"Luo Xue, what happened to you and Leng Ming? Why do I think there's something wrong with you? Is it because you don't like him? ”
Luo Xue pondered for a while and shook her head,
"It's not that I don't like him, I think he's not too young, he has nothing to do all day long, I can't accept it, I'm not a person who likes to be comfortable, a man like him who only lives on the court, to be honest, I'm a little unaccustomed."
Luo Xue's words made Luo Lan a little moved, she really ignored this, in her impression, since Leng Ming set up himself as a mansion, she has been doing nothing, but fortunately, the court has enough money to support the expenses of Ming Wang's mansion.
Thinking of this, she nodded comfortingly:
"Otherwise, go back and ask your brother-in-law to arrange an official position for him in the court, let him experience it, a man has nothing to do all day, it really shouldn't be."
"Well, in fact, I know that he likes me, but recently I have always found that his personality is more like a child, he thinks, as long as he says he loves me, he likes me, he is good to me, but I don't think so, I am looking for someone to live with, not someone who loves and loves all day long, just like you and my brother-in-law, you are busy during the day, and you return home together at night, such a day is what I yearn for."
Luo Lan turned to look at her and smiled softly:
"Since you also want to go out to do things, why don't you come back to the Spring Hall to help me, it just so happens that I am short of manpower there."
"Really?"
Luo Xue looked at her with some joy, "Sister, if I really can, I want to go, I don't want to be a pampered lady at home, and I don't want to be a woman like Yu Qiaoqiao, I want to be like you, I have my own things to do, and I can also take care of the family." ”
At the mention of Yu Qiaoqiao, Luo Lan chuckled helplessly and shook his head,
"Everyone's thoughts are different, everyone's lifestyle is different, for Yu Qiaoqiao, husband and children are the life she wants most."
"But I always feel that she and that Leng Xi just seem to be in love on the surface, and they don't know what kind of life they live behind the scenes, I've seen her twice, and she never seems to have a smile on her face......"
"Yes, whether a woman is happy or not, you can see from her face and her smile, there is indeed a problem between Yu Qiaoqiao and Leng Xi, sometimes, women lose themselves for the sake of the family, where is there happiness at all?"
Thinking of Yu Qiaoqiao's unceremonious attitude towards Leng Xi during the banquet just now, Luo Lan couldn't help but be a little worried, wondering if Leng Xi would be angry with her after she went back?
The facts are basically the same as Luo Lan's conjecture, Leng Xi just returned to Xiwang's Mansion, so she asked Xiaobao to go down, and she directly brought Qiaoqiao back to the room.
"Tell me, what the hell do you want?"
He stared at Yu Qiaoqiao with a hint of fierceness and anger in his tone.
Yu Qiaoqiao lowered her head and kept kneading the handkerchief in her hand with both hands.
"Speak, you have repeatedly refuted me in public now, how can I tell you? No matter what you and I do in Xiwangfu, in front of outsiders, you have to pretend to be affectionate to me, have you forgotten? ”
When she said this, Leng Xi suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her collar, glared, and asked in a hateful voice:
"Yu Qiaoqiao, don't play tricks with this king, this king can tolerate you once or twice, and will not tolerate you many times, if you dare to refute this king, believe it or not, this king wants you to look good."
"Kill me?"
Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly stared at Leng Xi, and his eyes revealed a rare firmness,
"How do you want me to look good? You should kill me, so that you can show the prestige of your Xiwang Ye, anyway, you have killed many people, and I am not the only one. ”
"You think I wouldn't dare?"
"Of course you dare, you Xi Wang Ye can be alone for many years, what else do you dare not do? I'm Yu Qiaoqiao just an ornament of your Xiwang Mansion, and now that I've done enough of this ornament, you can either kill me or divorce me, in short, I've had enough. ”
Her words made Leng Xi's face turn blue and white for a while.
His hand holding Yu Qiaoqiao's collar slowly let go, but Yu Qiaoqiao shook off his hand vigorously, took two steps back, and continued to say coldly:
"Lord Xi, I have been your nominal princess of Xi for six years, in the past six years, I feel that I am not living in the Xiwang Mansion, I am living in the nunnery, now I am enough, I don't want to continue to live this kind of pure heart and few desires, you let me go!"
After saying this, she looked up at Leng Xi, and said word by word:
"Give me a letter of resignation, or give me three feet of white silk."
With these words, she turned, pushed open the door, and walked out with her skirt lifted.
The reason why there was such a big anger today was entirely because she saw Leng Yu and Luo Lan's loving appearance, and Leng Xi deliberately followed suit, which made her feel displeased.
She could tolerate Leng Xi's snubbing of her, but she couldn't accept him pretending to be good to her in front of outsiders.
Seeing her snatch the door out, Leng Xi also frowned and froze in place, this woman was really bold enough to dare to make such an unreasonable request.
He couldn't have killed her, and he wouldn't have divorced her.
It's just that she, who has always been submissive, how did she become a wild horse that has escaped? Makes him feel a little out of control?
