Seven days later, the happy clothes were sent to Yan's house, and Xiao Lian also wanted to take advantage of that time to make the clothes and give them to Yan Xixia. Jinyi Pavilion is a division of labor and cooperation, and Xiao Lian has only himself. In order to rush to make new clothes, Xiao Lian stayed in the embroidery workshop all day for the next few days. In order to save time, he didn't go back to Yan's house to eat lunch, even if it only took a quarter of an hour to walk.
Yan Xixia was afraid that Xiao Lian would treat him badly, so he promised to deliver meals at noon today. Yan Xixia asked Jiusi to take out the food and put it on the table, then asked Jiusi to go out first, and said to Xiao Lian, "Madam, let's eat."
Xiao Lian first handed the chopsticks to Yan Xixia, and then picked up his own bowl and chopsticks: "You can eat too."
Yan Xixia heard Xiao Lian mention that the embroidery workshop had picked up a batch of handkerchiefs. Thinking that Xiao Lian was busy with this recently, she asked, "How long will this handkerchief be embroidered, Madam?"
Although the money Xiao Lian earned was not worth mentioning compared to Yan's residence, but Yan Xixia did not let Xiao Lian give up his small embroidery workshop and concentrate on going back to be Mrs. Yan, but seeing Xiao Lian so busy, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed. .
Xiao Lian wasn't embroidering a handkerchief, so she couldn't help feeling guilty, stuffed her mouth with rice, and said vaguely, "It will be done on the agreed day."
Although the batch of handkerchiefs was only half finished, it was still half a month before Yu Mansion came to pick up the handkerchiefs, and there was more than enough time. Xiao Lian was not worried at all.
"Madam, you should pay more attention to your body and don't hurt your body."
"Don't worry, I have a sense."
The two chatted while eating, and when they left, Yan Xixia hugged Xiao Lian: "I have been home late for three consecutive days, so I have to come back earlier tonight."
Xiao Lian liked the feeling that someone was looking forward to returning home, and nodded in Yan Xixia's arms: "Well, go back earlier today."
Yan Xixia lowered her head and kissed Xiao Lian's earlobe: "I'll go back first."
Xiao Lian's earlobes turned red: "Well."
After Yan Xixia left, Xiao Lian continued to make clothes, Xun Qiu teased Xiao Lian aside, and Xiao Lian also blushed and let her tease. Then I heard Jin Qiao's voice: "Welcome to this guest, what kind of embroidery do you want?"
Li Chengze held a folding fan in his hand and said gracefully, "I'll take a look first."
Xiao Lian heard Li Chengze's voice, and did not get up. Jinqiao went to entertain him. Li Chengze pretended to look at the embroidery in the shop, walked to Xiao Lian, saw Xiao Lian tailoring clothes, and asked, "Little boss, what is this? The embroidery workshop also took over the work of the tailor shop?"
Xiao Lian didn't answer, Xun Qiu giggled and said, "This is the little boss's own."
Li Chengze thought it was done for Yan Xixia, but he felt sullen for no reason in his heart: "I want to invite the little boss to the restaurant next door to talk about something, can you show me your face?"
Xiao Lian continued to sew: "Let's talk about it here."
"About Yan Xixia, if you don't care, I'm willing to say it here."
Xiao Lian was afraid that he would say some untrue remarks that would hurt Xixia's face, so Xunqiu Jinqiao spread it out, and put down the needle and thread: "A quarter of an hour."
Li Chengze clapped his fan in the palm of his hand: "Okay."
Xiao Lian and Li Chengze sat by the window of the teahouse, Li Chengze ordered a pot of tea, took the teacup and poured a cup of tea for Xiao Lian himself, and pushed it in front of Xiao Lian: "The Lu'an melon slices in his teahouse are unique, the bottom of the leaves is tender green, The brown color is clear and bright, the smell is fragrant, and the taste is mellow and sweet, you can try it first.”
Xiao Lian ignored Li Chengze's words, glanced at the tea, and said directly, "Just tell me, it's only a quarter of an hour."
Li Chengze took the tea in front of Xiao Lian unhurriedly, stared at Xiao Lian and took a sip of tea, only to see Xiao Lian frown before smiling: "Yan's family was originally in Jing'an City, and it was moved eight years ago when it declined. To Huaihe City, do you know?"
This is not a secret in Huaihe City, Xiao Lian said, "I know."
"The Yan family has a relationship between a sixteen-year-old woman and Yan Xixia, do you know that?"
"Know."
Li Chengze smiled contemptuously: "Did Yan Xixia tell you that she is the housekeeper's daughter?"
Xiao Lian didn't like the tone of Li Chengze's words and frowned, "Yes."
"He's lying to you. That woman Tongyan Xixia is a childhood sweetheart. She has been raised by his side since she was a child. She was raised as a concubine, and she will marry him in the future."
Xiao Lian didn't believe a word: "Nonsense."
"The Yan family used to be an official and noble family. Which official family does not have several such prostitutes. They are all under the same roof. Can Yan Xixia leave the young beauty beside her without touching it? I am afraid that the two of them have already done the courtesy of Zhou Gong. When I don't know, Wushan is cloudy and rainy."
Xiao Lian trembled with anger at Li Chengze's words, not because he believed Li Chengze's words, but at the seed cotton in Li Chengze's words, seed cotton is a girl who has not yet left the cabinet: "Without evidence, full of lies, you can't insult a woman's innocence. ."
"Why do you say that I insulted her? You say that I have no evidence, so what evidence do you have to prove that what I said is false?"
"I believe in him."
"It's just your subjective judgment. What you can see is only what he wants you to see. You can't be deceived by him, and you must learn from others."
"If I want to know it from someone else, it's also from his friend, not from you, who is prejudiced against him."
"You said that I was prejudiced against him, so his friend defended him, so isn't his evaluation a kind of prejudice?"
Xiao Lian was stupid and didn't know how to answer, so he could only say, "Anyway, I believe him."
"I'm really worried about you." Li Chengze wanted to reach out and hold Xiao Lian's hand, but Xiao Lian quickly avoided him, Li Chengze asked, "Why do you want to marry him? When I get married, I go to propose marriage, and suddenly they say that you are married, did they force you?"
"I voluntarily."
"You can tell me the truth, if they force you, I will save you from fire and water."
Xiao Lian couldn't speak well, but Li Chengze couldn't speak, so he had to repeat: "I am voluntary. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Li Chengze hurriedly said: "You must believe my words, he can't see it, and can he not marry someone else in the future? Can he not have children? You and the queen can marry me, and I don't dislike it." Be kind.
Xiao Lian was about to laugh at Li Chengze's words: "I dislike it."
Li Chengze didn't expect Xiao Lian to say such a thing, and said dumbly, "You..."
Xiao Lian said again: "You said that he will marry someone else in the future, so you won't marry someone else?"
Li Chengze made a promise and said, "As long as you marry me, I will definitely not marry anyone else."
"You just took a fancy to my skin. If my beautiful skin was gone, you would have forgotten about me. You can go to your confidante or blue-eyed confidant, don't pretend to be in front of me. Affectionate." He also heard a little about Li Chengze's style, but Xiao Lian did not comment, got up and prepared to leave, and added, "It's better not to spread such unverified rumors indiscriminately."
Li Chengze was a little angry when he looked at Xiao Lian's back, how could he be better than Yan Xixia everywhere. Some regretfully thought, how come this good skin doesn't trust him at all, even if he is a little hesitant, he can take advantage of it.
Xiao Lian felt that his time was wasted, and he had to rush back to make clothes for Yan Xixia.
Yan Xixia brewed tea in the cabin, Wen Yihong and Xu Shan played chess, Wen Yihong dropped a son and said to Yan Xixia, "This newly married Yan'er, Madam Yan is not at the house?"
Yan Xixia poured tea for the two of them. Although he couldn't see it, the tea did not overflow at all: "He's been busy in the embroidery workshop these days."
Wen Yihong smiled and said, "Why does he still open that small shop? Your Yan family is too poor to support a Mrs. Yan?"
Yan Xixia thought of Xiao Lian, and her heart softened: "He likes it."
Xu Shan asked, "Just do what he likes with you?"
Yan Xixia smiled and said, "Naturally."
Xu Shan thought of Xiao Lian's appearance, coupled with the scene he saw today, and said a little displeased: "But not everything in this world can be done by him at will."
Yan Xixia heard something in Xu Shan's words: "Brother Xu, what does this mean?"
Wen Yihong and Xu Shan looked at each other, Wen Yihong said, "Brother Xu and I came to your house in a carriage today, do you know what we met on the way?"
Yan Xixia asked, "What did you see?"
Wen Yihong described what he saw: "Mrs. Yan and Li Chengze are drinking tea in the restaurant, do you know that?"
Yan Xixia picked up the teacup and smelled the fragrance of the tea: "I don't know, but I know now."
Xu Shan said from the side: "Is this the busy embroidery workshop you said?"
Yan Xixia drank the tea and said, "Yes."
Xu Shan was vaguely angry: "You saw Li Chengze's appearance on the day you got married. Later, he said in the academy that Yan Fu wanted to marry Mrs. Zun to him, and today the two are still in a private meeting in a teahouse. Do you think they Is there any love between them?"
Yan Xixia was a little displeased when she heard Xu Shan's words: "Brother Xu, you should be careful with your words, 'private meeting'? Li Chengze has his reasons."
Xu Shandao: "You believe him that much?"
"Naturally." Yan Xixia smiled, "He is my wife, so I naturally believe him. If Brother Xu is prejudiced because of my wife's appearance, then you won't have this illusion when you understand him."
Xu Shan was right, he touched his nose and was speechless, Wen Yihong smiled and said, "Brother Yan will not see the wrong person, since Brother Yan believes in him, we will also believe in him. Brother Yan knows that Brother Xu usually That's how you talk, if you offend Madam Yan, don't take it to heart."
Yan Xixia smiled and said, "We have been classmates for many years. I know his temperament. He is also afraid that I will be deceived. How can I take it to heart."
Xu Shan scratched his head, took the teacup and drank it: "Brother Yan's tea is still as good as ever."
As soon as Xu Shan finished speaking, the three of them laughed out loud, and the red maple fell to the ground outside the house.
