Naturally, the Xu family also knew the news. Xu Qingqing was a little frustrated some time ago, but Ji Huai and the other party were in different places, and she was close. It was not impossible to go to Ji's house more times and have more contact.
It's normal to pry into the corner without telling the other party, and it's normal to cook raw rice and cooked rice.
She actively tried to get information from Ji Liang, and also knew that the first few batches of shrimp they raised were not cultivated. Ji Huai paid some money, but the latest batch was sold at a good price, and each of them divided hundreds of thousands.
Just as she was about to ask Mrs. Xu to take her to Ji's house more often, she suddenly heard that Ji Huai was getting married, and she was confused.
"Didn't the other party not graduate? Where did you hear the news? Impossible!" Xu Qingqing didn't believe it.
"I went to town this morning. What the hell did Ji Liang say? Can it be false?" Mrs. Xu added after finishing her sentence, "I heard that if you are good-looking, you can make money now. You can earn tens of thousands of yuan a month. You can live here." It’s at his house.”
As she spoke, she felt frustrated and irritable.
When I heard Xu Qingqing say it last time, I thought there was some hope. Now Ji Huai is married and his golden son-in-law is gone.
"What nonsense? A college student who has not graduated earns tens of thousands of dollars? Who are you kidding?" Xu Qingqing sneered.
"Whether it's true or not, she's married." Old Mrs. Xu also took the opportunity to teach her, "Don't say how much you think you can marry. You don't like this, and you don't want that. Girls nowadays are very smart. When you see that your family is in good condition, there are many people trying to rob you!"
Xu Qingqing was arrogant and unconvinced, so she held back and didn't fight back.
Many people went to Ji's house to see the bride. Mrs. Xu loved to join in the fun, so Xu Qingqing followed her to Ji's house.
As soon as I arrived at Ji's house, I found that there were quite a few people around the table. They were all aunties from the village. Wang Xiufen was making tea and serving cakes happily.
"Is it so lively?" Mrs. Xu looked around and asked.
Xu Qingqing was also quietly observing. After not coming for a few days, there were a lot more things in the yard, and she also bought a few potted plants. She had already thought about how to arrange the yard. It was so comfortable to live there, even if it was far away from the city, it was acceptable. .
Now I feel like my things have been robbed, which is very unpleasant.
Wang Xiufen saw the two of them and asked first, "Are you here to buy duck eggs today too? Have you finished the ones you bought last time?"
Old Mrs. Xu was embarrassed. If she said it was not the case, it would appear that she came here intentionally because she was a village away. She could only respond bravely, "Yes, I finished eating a long time ago. I wanted to come yesterday, but I was so busy that I forgot."
Wang Xiufen: "This batch of salted duck eggs has just been made. Why don't you buy more this time? It will save you a lot of traveling. How many do your family have to eat a day? They will be eaten in a few days, and they won't spoil in a while."
Mrs. Xu had no choice but to buy twenty.
Wang Xiufen packed it up and handed it over in a few seconds and collected the money. Old Mrs. Xu didn't leave, she sat down as if she was cooked. The money to buy eggs was not wasted. She reached for the biscuits to eat, and asked Xu Qingqing to find a seat as well.
We were not from the same village, and we didn't know each other very well, so we could only exchange superficial greetings. Mrs. Xu was thick-skinned and kept picking up the topic.
Everyone chatted with each other.
Aunt Li looked at the two Samoyeds playing around and said with a smile, "They are still wearing clothes. These two dogs are really good-looking and very cute."
"They are quite beautiful. Ji Huai spent several hundred yuan to buy them from his classmates or friends. He used to put them in the backyard, but now they are not allowed to go there." Wang Xiufen waved, and the two Samoyeds ran over happily.
"Is this your granddaughter?" Aunt Li looked at Xu Qingqing and asked suddenly.
Mrs. Xu replied: "Yes."
Aunt Li: "How old are you?"
"It's twenty-one." Mrs. Xu poured herself a cup of tea.
Aunt Li: "Are you studying or working?"
These words stumped Mrs. Xu. Xu Qingqing saved her face and spoke first, "I'm studying, sophomore."
If you don't say you are studying at this age, doesn't it mean you haven't read much? That woman was a normal college student, and she didn't want to be compared and embarrassed.
Aunt Li nodded, and then Aunt Zhang was talking about village gossip again, and a group of people were chatting.
They were all a group of old people, and Xu Qingqing was tired of staying there, but she wanted to see what the woman Ji Huai married looked like, so she could only stay.
She was preparing to find an excuse in the past few days to ask Ji Liang to give her Ji Huai's contact information, but she didn't expect this to happen, and she was really unwilling to do so.
The other end.
Ji Huai's car parked at the entrance of a residential area in the city, and Wen Yun walked out of it.
As soon as she got in the car, he put the drink in his hand into a straw and handed it over, "Drink some."
"What kind of tea is today?" She took it with a smile and found that it was still hot and there were chrysanthemums inside.
The lecture lasted for a long time, and her throat felt a little uncomfortable. During this time, he came to pick her up and bought her a drink, occasionally milk tea. Wen Yun took several sips and found a lot of fruit on the back seat. She asked doubtfully, "Did you buy it?"
Ji Huai reversed the car and turned the steering wheel, "Well, grandma said that many people came to the house and wanted to see the bride. She asked me to buy more fruits and go back."
Wang Xiufen is well-known in the village for her hospitality. She just called him and emphasized buying more.
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Yun choked and coughed violently, "Cough, cough, cough, cough..."
"Drink slowly." Ji Huai had a free hand and patted her back gently.
Wen Yun didn't know whether her face was red from being choked or from embarrassment, her neck was red, and she hesitated, "What bride?"
She is praying in her heart, isn’t she talking about her
Ji Huai: "We just got married, aren't you the bride?"
Wen Yun's face turned redder, she slumped on the seat, glanced to the side, and said softly, "Can I not go back?"
She didn't dare to see anyone.
So ashamed.
What the hell is the bride? They haven't held a wedding banquet yet.
"Not going back?" Ji Huai raised his eyebrows, and then said helplessly, "You can't stop seeing people, right? Are you hiding at home all the time? Isn't that bad too?"
He knew she was shy, but she always wanted to meet people.
Wen Yun was silent for a while, then pouted and whispered, "It's not because I'm afraid... I'm not ready."
"What other preparations are needed? If you really don't want to see me, forget it. I'll find an excuse not to go back." Ji Huai said.
"...Is this okay? Is it bad?" She said hesitantly. She didn't feel that it had reached that point. It was just too sudden and she was not mentally prepared.
"It's not good." After Ji Huai finished speaking, he continued casually, "If I don't see you every time I come here, there may be all kinds of rumors in the village, and they may say why Ji Huai's wife doesn't dare to Seeing people? Or avoiding people? Or..."
"You hate it~" She interrupted angrily as he deliberately changed his tone to amplify the seriousness.
"It's true, why do I hate it again?" Ji Huai smiled.
"You're just annoying, you're the most annoying, thief is annoying." She said several times in a row.
Ji Huai was not angry either. He waited until the red light, stopped the car, grabbed one of her hands, and kissed the back of her smooth and white hand intimately, "I'm here, what are you afraid of? If you don't want to talk, just follow me. Just being around me is fine, but why does it feel like a execution ground? What will I do when I have to be a teacher and deal with parents in the future?"
His words were like a reassurance. Wen Yun's pounding heart suddenly calmed down again, and her voice was soft and soft, "You said you are not allowed to leave then."
"I'm not leaving." Ji Huai promised and said with a smile, "Where should I go? Grandma is here too."
"Okay~~" Wen Yun started drinking chrysanthemum tea again.
When Ji Huai drove under the bridge, he slowly stopped aside. She looked up and saw that he had unbuckled his seat belt, "I'll buy you some sauce-flavored pancakes. Eat some to build up your courage."
"You talk so annoyingly..." Her face fell again and her voice dragged.
He had just made some preparations, could he not add fuel to the fire
Ji Huai got out of the car and walked to the old man's stall, "I want a sauce-flavored pancake that costs three yuan."
"Okay." The old man cut it twice with the knife, put several pieces into a paper bag, then put them on the scale, put them in a plastic bag and put two bamboo sticks, and finally handed them to him.
The movements were smooth and smooth. Ji Huai had already paid the money and turned around to get into the car.
The carriage was instantly filled with the aroma of sauce-flavored pancakes, and he urged Wen Yun, "Hurry up and eat while it's hot. Eat as much as you can before going to the execution ground."
"You still say that!" Wen Yun bit her lower lip with her snow-white teeth, her eyebrows twisted and she looked fierce, "You are so bad!!!"
The face is tender and tender, really like a delicious and soft bun.
Ji Huai chuckled, holding his delicate face with both hands, and said "pop" several times, "Why am I so bad? I'm treating you well."
Wen Yun: “…”
These few kisses made her break her gong, like a ball being slowly deflated, deflated and soft.
Ji Huai continued to drive home, much slower than usual. Wen Yun also ate the cake slower than usual. It was so far away from home, so she didn't dare to eat. She looked in the rearview mirror to adjust her appearance, and continued to He took out the only lipstick from his bag and pursed his lips after applying it.
Seeing the driver looking at her from the corner of his eye, Wen Yun turned her head and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good." Ji Huai nodded, "I want to chew it."
Wen Yun: “…”
She didn't want to hear anything serious from someone who had recently become a vegetarian. She was too lazy to pay attention to him.
The closer she got to Ji's house, the more nervous she became.
There are two boxes of duck eggs and a small bag of limestone in the trunk of Ji Huai's car. They will be sent to the factory later, so the car will not go in to avoid having to turn around.
The two parked the car on the side of the road. Wen Yun got out of the car to pick up the fruit. Ji Huai reached out and took it, "I'll do it."
He bought grapefruit, pineapple, apples, and some oranges, which were quite heavy.
"Save some for me, otherwise how embarrassing would it be? I'm empty-handed." Wen Yun became more and more nervous and tried to grab the bag with oranges again.
"Is this your first time visiting? Are you afraid that people will think you are rude?" Ji Huai couldn't laugh or cry. He put both bags on his left hand and held her with his right hand, "Are you afraid of being embarrassed when you go back to your own home? You're so cute."
"..." Her mind would get stuck easily when she was nervous, and she was led along by him in a daze.
As we walked along the outer wall of Ji's house towards the back door, we could hear the sounds of conversations and laughter coming from inside.
"Why isn't the bride coming back? I'll go back to cook in a little while." Ji Sanpo poured herself tea, looked at the door and said.
"Originally, she was at home this afternoon, and a student's parent called her to go to class, so Ji Huai sent her to class. I just called them and asked them to buy some fruit. Our family will eat goose tonight. If If you don't mind, you can eat at my house and watch as much as you want." Wang Xiufen replied.
"If this is the case, she will be embarrassed." Ji Sanpo teased.
Wang Xiufen: "That kid is really thin-skinned, don't embarrass her."
When she heard that there were fruits to eat and rice to eat, Mrs. Xu didn't want to leave.
Ji Sanpo smiled, she was done with the gossip, her eyes fell on Xu Qingqing again, and she raised the topic, "Are you at home during the holidays now? You can also go out to work during the holidays. Look at Ji Huai's daughter-in-law, she goes to make up classes. At two hundred yuan per class, it’s easy for you students to make money.”
"I'm not a normal student." Xu Qingqing looked unhappy and her mouth was slightly stiff.
"Do you have to be a normal school student?" Ji Sanpo said she didn't understand this.
"Yes? My Xiaoyun went to a normal university and became a teacher when she graduated." Wang Xiufen answered.
Xu Qingqing felt a little uncomfortable when she heard the word "Yun". She thought of Wen Yun and the oil bottle that Wen Qiulan brought. No matter how much he bullies her, she always looks dull. She doesn't cry or make trouble, but she is submissive. However, she looks good and studies well, which makes her angry just looking at him.
"Are you going to be a teacher when you come out?" Old Mrs. Xu said beautiful words, "It is very good to be a teacher. I heard that your grandson-in-law is very good-looking. I am also waiting to see what the bride looks like."
Wang Xiufen: "You don't need to look, you know it."
Mrs. Xu was confused, "Do I know her? Which girl?"
Just as Wang Xiufen was about to speak, Ji Huai walked in from the door holding Wen Yun.
"Yo yo yo, the bride is back?"
"It's not easy to meet."
"Ji Huai, Auntie has been waiting for a long time."
…
Aunt Li and others all looked over, laughing and joking.
Xu Qingqing and Mrs. Xu naturally looked over, and their expressions suddenly changed.
Wen Yun is no longer the thin little maid she was more than a year ago. Now she has long flowing hair and a rosy complexion. She is wearing a milky white woolen coat and boots. At first glance, she has a gentle look. temperament.
"You're back?" Wang Xiufen stepped forward with a smile.
"Grandma." Wen Yun didn't notice the two of them, Xu Qingqing, and was too embarrassed to look over there. She reached out and brushed her hair with a little shyness.
The burgundy leather watch on her hand made her fair skin stand out, and she was wearing a diamond ring on the hand she was holding with Ji Huai.
Ji Huai saw the two of the Xu family, held her hand tightly, and took her to his side. After letting go of her hand, he put his arm around her shoulders instead.
Wang Xiufen took the fruit and said enthusiastically, "Everyone, eat some fruit. I'll go to the kitchen to get a knife."
When Wen Yun walked in, she was naturally praised. Ji Sanpo said to Ji Huai, "I don't believe them when they say they look good. No wonder you want to marry her back as soon as possible."
Ji Huai put his arms around Wen Yun, but he was not shy. He smiled and replied, "I'm not bad either. What a perfect match?"
"That's true." Ji Sanpo agreed, "I can't find a handsome guy from all over the country who is more handsome than you."
Wen Yun's face was hot as she kept walking in. When she glanced and saw Mrs. Xu, she stopped immediately. She felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured down on her whole body. Her face was pale and her palms were sweaty.
It's not that she didn't expect that the Xu family would know, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon and on such an occasion.
Xu Qingqing saw her reaction, and the corner of her mouth curled up into a sarcastic smile, looking straight at her.
She wanted to see what Wen Yun would do. Ji's family definitely didn't know the identity of the other party. She thought that Wen Yun didn't go home and had the confidence to block her. It turned out that she hooked up with Ji Huai and married him in exchange for money.
It's such a big drama, Wen Yun must be afraid of being exposed by them, right
"Cut the fruit quickly. You're welcome to eat more." Wang Xiufen took out the knife.
"You can peel the grapefruit first, the grapefruit is very sweet." Ji Huai reminded him, turning his head and lowering his voice to comfort Wen Yun, "It's okay, just pretend it doesn't exist."
Wen Yun knew who he was referring to, so she squeezed out a smile and leaned towards him.
Ji Huai also hugged her tightly and walked forward.
When Xu Qingqing saw Wen Yun trying to get away with it, she was of course anxious. Before Mrs. Xu could say anything, she said in a strange tone, "Ji Huai, the person next to you looks very familiar to me."
Ji Huai must not know that Wen Yun is her stepmother's child, otherwise he would not marry her. It's so disgusting. She tricked Ji Huai into getting the certificate. Why didn't she realize that Wen Yun was so scheming before
Sure enough, an illegitimate daughter is not a good thing!
I wonder how Ji Huai would react when he found out? Are you afraid that Wen Yun will be rejected? This is called stealing the chicken but losing the rice, which directly turns into a second marriage.
Wen Yun's body froze again. After being a teacher for a long time, the expression on her face could still be controlled. With Ji Huai beside her, she was reassured and pretended she didn't hear anything.
Wang Xiufen was chopping grapefruits and replied with a frank smile, "She is Wen Qiulan's daughter. You don't want such a good child. Our family wants her."
