Chapter 21
The children of this family are still attending classes in the academy where Xu Ziqiao lives. Maybe Lin Huiru's method is persuasive. The man hesitated and nodded, "Okay, okay, but if you forget it by then, you can forget about it." Don't blame me for not reminding you."
"Don't worry, we will exchange the contract with silver at that time." After Lin Huiru finished speaking, the three of them entered the house and wrote a contract. The master left contentedly.
After these negotiations, Lin Huiru almost forgot the existence of Gulen. She didn't see the outside, and sat down on the couch directly, "Brother Xu, if you are short of money, you can tell me, I can still lend you a tael of silver." "I can't see that you are quite rich,
since Yes, how about borrowing it for use?" Lin Huiru didn't even want to, but just wanted to touch Ge Lan's brow, seeing her stretch out her hand, Ge Lan's face really changed.
Xu Ziqiao put this scene in his eyes, "No need, how can a man borrow money from a woman." "
Brother Xu, you don't need to be strangers to me. By the way, it's not far from my shop. My parents often boast about it." I cook delicious food, if you don't mind, I can come here to take care of you." Ge Lan gave Lin Huiru a white look, and chased Xu Ziqiao again to provoke the conversation.
"Of course I dislike it! First, this is our home, so don't come and wander around here. Second, for a girl who hasn't left the cabinet, can you show some face?" Lin Huiru said bluntly, crossing her arms and chest, raising her eyebrows.
Lin Huiru, who was about to be caught by Ge Lan, wept angrily, and walked up to Xu Ziqiao with a look of grievance on her face, "Brother Xu, I didn't know that sister Xiaoru didn't like me, there must be some misunderstanding here , I just think it's hard for you to study hard, and I want to help you."
Hearing this, Xu Ziqiao just smiled, "The money I earned from copying books is enough to support myself, and it's not easy for your dim sum shop to do business, and What my wife said is right, girls who have not left the cabinet often come to affect their reputation, and I still have time for small things like cooking." "
But, if I am as young as my sister, I will not let you go so hard." Ge Lan There are also some unwillingness.
Lin Huiru is not uncommon for this kind of green tea whore, but when it happened to her, she just thought it was funny, "But you are not me, you didn't hear what my husband said, you said I closed the door to see off guests, or you Let's go?"
Lin Huiru just caught a glimpse of something interesting, she picked up a piece of joss stick on the table after she finished speaking, and then wrapped a circle of spider webs, even the finger-sized spider was attached to it.
Seeing that Ge Lan's face turned pale, Lin Huiru smiled and threw the spider on Ge Lan's body.
After a hooting sound like a pig being slaughtered, Ge Lan rushed out like a big white goose, not even caring about the messy hair, only wanting to take down that terrible spider.
Lin Huiru watched the laughing flowers tremble in the room. Seeing her happy, Xu Ziqiao swallowed her words of persuasion.
"She just said a few more words, why do you scare her like this?" Xu Ziqiao asked, but Lin Huiru gave her a supercilious look.
Sure enough, all men are like this. Lin Huiru put down the candle and sat down, "She has provoked me like this not once or twice. Is it possible that I am still used to it? Look at her pitiful, or I will marry her?" Lin
Huiru Huiru's expression was upright and serious, and she didn't mean to be joking at all. Seeing this, Xu Ziqiao couldn't help feeling a little flustered, and hurriedly explained, "I won't divorce my wife, and I just treat her as a younger sister. After all, a little friendship is fine. Take care of me."
Lin Huiru was almost familiar with this kind of scumbag's quotations, she waved her hand impatiently, and went out to tidy up her things, "There is no need to talk so much nonsense, since you are not getting along, then she will come to Tiger Head Jacket King, if I don't give her some color, she won't know why the flowers are so red!"
Although Xu Ziqiao didn't quite understand Lin Huiru's meaning, he could more or less understand that Lin Huiru didn't like him and Gu Lan together.
Cleaning up the house kept Lin Huiru and Xu Ziqiao busy until almost sunset. When thinking about the Lin family, Lin Huiru couldn't help feeling a little headache, "I'll go back and pack up, and I'll take a look at my parents. You're too late to go to school today. You don't have to follow me anymore."
"How can this be done? It's not safe for you to walk alone at night as a woman. Since I'm already late, it's not too late." Xu Ziqiao's expression and tone were very firm.
But this road is indeed a bit off, not to mention that there were robbers and bandits in places like this in ancient times. Lin Huiru's heart trembled, but Xu Ziqiao was also gentle. If anything happened, I'm afraid there was nothing he could do about it. do what.
"Forget it, I won't go back. I just saw that there is still a quilt. I will make do with it here for one night. I will go back to see them tomorrow, so that no one will be delayed." Lin Huiru is a person who is afraid of troublesome people. Therefore, if you can solve things by yourself, you can solve them yourself, and your independent temperament is cultivated from an early age.
Xu Ziqiao's exam is coming soon, and it's a lie to say that he is not nervous. For so many years now, he has just participated in the imperial examination to gain fame, and there must be no mistakes.
"Okay, then I may come back later, you have to lock the door." Xu Ziqiao nodded, with a hint of worry in his tone.
Lin Huiru couldn't help feeling that he was a little exaggerated. This is a small town, so there should be no such arrogant people, but it was Xu Ziqiao's kindness after all, "Okay, I understand, you don't have to worry about me." Send Xu Ziqiao
away In the end, Lin Huiru only felt relaxed, but she was one step closer to her ideal life. As the beginning of a new life, she had to reward herself.
Taking advantage of the fact that the vegetable farmers were in a hurry to go home, Lin Huiru bought a lot of meat and vegetables at a cheap price, and went back to the house humming a little tune.
She cut a small piece of pork belly and braised it in soy sauce, and fried some green vegetables. She ate it all by herself, and she didn't forget to save some for Xu Ziqiao.
It wasn't until the time of stringing together that Lin Huiru felt that it would be nice to have a helper next to her, at least two of them could do things faster.
Lin Huiru wore strings until the early morning, and Xu Ziqiao hadn't come back when the moon was high above her head. She was not worried about what would happen to a big man, but she couldn't bear the sleepiness, so she washed up first and went to bed.
She had just fallen asleep, and Xu Ziqiao also came back lightly. There were many affairs in the school, so he came back late after all.
Pushing the door open and entering the room, a piece of paper on the table caught his attention. This was the first time he saw Lin Huiru's handwriting.
Especially what was written above made Xu Ziqiao feel warmer. Looking at the sleeping Lin Huiru, he finally suppressed the irregular behavior. He was still guilty about the wedding night. If Lin Huiru If he is not allowed to approach, then he can afford to wait.
However, he likes the feeling of having a shrewd and virtuous woman in his family.
