Suddenly hearing the name Zhong Cainiang, Ning Guang shook his head, then frowned and asked, "What's the explanation?"
Su Liu almost lost his temper, pinched his waist hard, and said, "Are you pretending to be stupid or innocent, so you don't see that this girl is deeply in love with you?"
"Nonsense!" Ning Guang pushed her away and said with a black face: "She is still a girl. Don't talk nonsense like this. It will ruin your reputation."
Su Liu rolled his eyes and thought, I still want to talk nonsense, people really want this reputation to be ruined on you.
"Cai Niang's brother was one of my capable young men. He died trying to save me and asked me to take care of his only sister before he died. That's all. It's not what you think." Ning Guang looked at her face with disapproval.
It’s hard to explain.
Su Liu sneered, "Look, it's not just Xiao San'er who has such a bloody thing, there are also dying entrustments, life-saving graces and so on."
"You think so, this girl may not be so." Su Liu sighed, and then explained Zhong Cainiang's thoughts, and finally said: "I think she is about sixteen or seventeen, why haven't we gotten married yet? Don't tell me
I'm a petty person. If you say she's not interested in you, I won't believe it. I know you feel guilty for her, but I can tell you, I won't allow my concubines to have sex with each other, let alone
Her brother saved you, even if she saved you, it won't work."
"I can't tell you are jealous. You're very sour." Ning Guang pinched her cheek lightly and frowned. Does that girl really have such thoughts?
"Ning Guang, I'm not saying that I'm cruel. There are some things that should be explained clearly, and it's better to explain them clearly. She has also reached the age of getting married." Su Liu reminded tactfully.
"I know this well."
Su Liu didn't want to talk too much about these things, so he changed the subject and said: "Then what do they mean by coming here this time? Ning Guang, are you going back?"
Even though she has never eaten pork, she has seen pigs running away. Isn't it like this on TV? Those people who retreat to the mountains and fields are suddenly found, and the final outcome is most likely to come out of the mountain.
Now, Ning Guang's old subordinates are here. Will he go back to Beijing? Or go to the battlefield?
If this is the case, what will she do?
Su Liu's eyes were blazing, and Ning Guang couldn't resist, so he had to hold her in his arms again and said, "They are just here to find me."
"If one day you want to do something, you must tell me. If you want to leave, don't leave secretly. Promise me." Su Liu hugged him with her backhand and muttered with her little face on his chest.
Never had she been so attached to someone, Ning Guang felt like his heart was hit hard and said, "I'm not going anywhere."
Su Liu hummed, but she didn't feel relieved. She knew that since Ning Guang's old subordinates could be found, Ning Guang's family members could also be found, as well as other people.
If one day, he wants to leave, can she stop him? No, regardless of ancient or modern times, the most important thing is for a man to make contributions and establish a career. A person's ambition cannot be put down just by letting go. She can see that Ning Guang, he, actually cannot let go.
.
Su Liu let out a long sigh, "That's it. The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's take it one step at a time!"
Su Liu was right, the Marquis of Guangning had indeed received the news, but immediately, someone was ordered by the Marquis of Guangning to arrest Ning Guang, and the Marquis of Guangning was heard to have smashed the most beloved beauty kiln vase.
.
The two talked for a while, and then the sound of iced tea came from outside the door.
"Girl, are you there?"
Su Liu quickly jumped out of Ning Guang's arms and asked, "What's the matter?" while adjusting his clothes.
"Someone is coming to the old house. Madam, please come to the front hall."
Su Liu frowned, what are you doing here at this time?
She looked at Ning Guang, who said: "You go ahead, I'll go talk to Tietou and the others."
Su Liu nodded and then left.
The people who came to the old house were actually no one, but Su Fusheng and his new wife. They said they came to kowtow to Mrs. Chen and to recognize her family. Su Liu thought it was funny. What kind of kowtow was this? Ms. Chen was not the one.
She is a member of the Su family, and this person is not right and unreasonable. What does it mean for the couple to kowtow to her?
Mrs. Chen also knew that this was unreasonable, so she naturally did not let the couple kowtow. She only asked them to sit down while looking at the woman on the other side.
"Mei Niang." The woman looked at Mrs. Chen, her eyes were shining, and she was so excited that she called the children around her and said, "Go, kowtow to your mother-in-law."
When Su Liu came in, her face darkened when she heard the word aunt.
"Mom!" She didn't even look at Su Fusheng and the others. She walked directly to Mrs. Chen and bowed on her knees. Then she turned around and frowned when she saw a strange woman holding a baby.
Who is this?
"Mei Niang, this is Liu Yatou, right? I haven't seen her for a year, and she's so upright." When the woman saw Su Liu, she looked up and down, and exclaimed: "If this was on the street, I would
I can’t even recognize her, I thought she was a girl from some family!”
Her words were not just flattery. In fact, Su Liu's current demeanor was much higher than before.
After living a good life, her skin naturally took good care of itself and became supple and tender. She already had good eyebrows. She wore silk and satin and gold and silver jewelry. With such an outfit, she still looked like a wild girl in the village.
Girl? It’s not an exaggeration to say she’s a lady from everyone.
And Mei Niang is the same. With her clothes and her overall style, it’s no wonder that they are now famous. It turns out to be true. Even in this house, their family will never be able to earn money in their lifetime.
Su Yindi's eyes were full of envy. If her mother-in-law hadn't disliked Su Liu for being a six-fingered child, she would have decided to give him to their eldest son. Their family would also be able to enjoy this wealth!
Thinking of this, Su Yindi felt regret and hatred!
"This is your aunt." Mrs. Chen said to Su Liu, then pointed to the woman in pink clothes next to Su Fusheng and said: "That is your second uncle's new wife."
Su Liu's memory has long since returned. This aunt married into a poor family, but the children were born in litters. It seemed that they had already given birth to six, and now there is another one?
It looked like what she was wearing had more patches than Chen's clothes. She had washed them again and again, and she didn't know how many years they had been wearing them. And she was surrounded by three or four children, the oldest of whom was only fourteen or fifteen years old.
Not to mention the swaddling boy in his arms, the youngest one also looked about three or four years old, with long hair and a dirty face.
There was no such thing as family planning in ancient times, especially in rural areas. What do you do when you have nothing to do after dinner at night? In order to save fuel and candles, you naturally climb onto the kang early and roll up as soon as the quilt is covered.
However, the ancients mostly believed in a strong human being and did not consider the issue of whether they could afford to raise them at all. After conception and giving birth, most of the children in ancient times could not be raised anyway. The few who survived counted only a few. As a result, the children survived.
I came down, but I can’t afford it anymore.
Su Liu heard that there was a family in the next village who gave birth to seven daughters in order to have a son. The eighth daughter was born as a daughter and couldn't afford to raise her. What should I do, and the child drowned.
It's cruel, it's a human life, how could you do it?
Su Liu gave a faint cry and looked at Su Fusheng's new daughter-in-law, Luo Shi.
Luo Shi was a petite figure. Because she was newly married, she was dressed festively, which made her fair face very rosy. She sat there shyly. When Su Liu looked over, she lowered her head as if she was shocked.
Su Liu frowned and saw that her feet were actually small, so she shook her head. Such a woman is not worth looking at, and she may not be able to do heavy work. In the countryside, what's the use of just looking good? Moreover,
Judging from her temperament, within a few days, she will be tortured by Huang and others and she will be out of shape very quickly. By then, she will have to do everything and still be charming?
But she was also really curious as to what these people were doing here. Did they really just want to kowtow to acknowledge them?
She doesn't believe it!
Su Liu really guessed right, kowtowing to the door was just a cover, it was Su Yindi who only wanted to make friends with Chen, so that he could do some errand for his son.
Ice tea and Ya'er came up with refreshments, but Mrs. Chen refused to eat. Seeing that Su Yindi's children were all sallow and thin, she couldn't bear it, so she asked them to take them to Su Yindi and the others.
The sweets and snacks of Su Liu's family are all exquisite snacks, some are made in their own shop, and some are sent by yesterday's customers. Cao Mingzhu and the others sent a lot.
She was not surprised that the children in Su Yindi's family were greedy. However, from the corner of her eye, she saw Luo Shi wrapping up a few pieces with a handkerchief, and she couldn't help but frown and twitch her forehead.
Su Yindi's eyes lit up when he saw these snacks. The children were all very greedy. They caught them in his hand and chewed them all in his mouth. Not to mention how embarrassed he was, as if he was a hungry ghost reincarnated.
Seeing Su Liu looking over, she was a little embarrassed, and then looked at Sanlang standing beside her, feeling deeper regret in her heart, but thinking of Su Xiao, she started to think about it again.
"Why don't you see Su Xiao?" she asked, looking around the hall.
"The child went to bed late last night and hasn't gotten up yet." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
Su Yindi was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was too lazy for not getting up at this hour, but thinking about the life Chen and the others were living now, they had people to take care of them, and there was no need for them to do anything at home, so he said: "Today,
It’s cold, so it’s not a bad idea to get up late, and everything will be fine.”
Su Liu saw Luo Shi's face full of envy, his eyes rolling, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
Mrs. Chen smiled and said nothing. She was also a little confused about Su Yindi's purpose, so she waited slowly.
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Su Yindi said: "Mei Niang, I didn't know that you and Chang Sheng were in such trouble. News spreads slowly in my place. If I knew, I would definitely be the first to disagree. You are so kind.
Man, it was because his eyes were blinded by a ghost that he made such a fuss."
In the past, Su Yindi could not be said to be very good with Mrs. Chen. He was just soft-tempered and not incompatible. He was also the most compatible person with Mrs. Chen in the Su family. Mrs. Chen did not show her face and just smiled lightly:
"I won't mention the past. It's good now."
"That's right, our Su family is also unlucky." Su Yindi nodded quickly and said, "Mei Niang, you are really lucky now. I heard that Liu Yatou is engaged?"
After hearing this, Chen and Su Liu looked at each other and exchanged glances instantly.
