In the room, Cheng Xue, Lian and their three daughters had dinner together.
After not eating for a long time, Li Yue and Li Tian opened their cheeks and ate five pieces in one go, which shocked Lian.
Cheng Xue was afraid that they would eat too much, so she put some vegetables into the bowl from time to time and reminded them:
"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."
The two sisters nodded randomly and had no time to reply. Sister Xuan didn't chew much, and she couldn't chew on two bones. She ate some more noodles, much more than usual.
Lian looked at the children eating, pursed her lips and chuckled:
"It's them, no matter how much they eat, they don't have to worry about gaining weight. Recently, I've been riding in the car, not moving, and with the good food of white peony root, my waistline has been rising."
While talking, Cheng Xue pinched her waist and abdomen. She tilted her head and took a look, and found that she had indeed gained some weight.
"It's a blessing to be able to eat. What's the point of worrying about gaining weight? When you wait for Pingyang County, you can exercise and make the fat stronger. Having a good body is better than anything else. I tell you, only good health is important. Those delicate and beautiful women,
I really don’t like it. Do you want to drink bitter tonics all the time? Don’t forget, medicine is three parts poison.”
On the day the shabu-shabu house opened, she discovered that the female relatives in the capital had reached a state of perversion and began to pursue a "yandere" beauty.
She is soft and weak, and her eyebrows are furrowed at every turn. What kind of pursuit is this? With a body like this, how can she resist if the enemy comes? She is lucky not to be reduced to a plaything. What makes her even more irritated is that people like her are
Such a healthy body is looked down upon, it is really a summer bug.
He was afraid that she would follow suit, so Cheng Xue often brainwashed her recently, which can be described as taking great pains.
Lian naturally understood her good intentions and nodded with a smile.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'm not stupid. Even if I gain weight, I won't diet. When I start practicing Baduanjin in Pingyang County, I will lose weight in a short time. If you don't expect me to be able to solve my husband's problems like my sister-in-law, at least I can help take care of the backyard.
Appropriate."
She learned from whomever, and whenever she saw Cheng Xue helping Li Hui share the burden, she fantasized about what she would do if she were in her place. They were both women, and after studying for so many years, they might not do any worse than her sister-in-law.
What's more, her mother's family has no hope at all, and she must become independent. Otherwise, if her husband takes several concubines in the future, life will be even more difficult for her and her daughter.
Cheng Xue saw that she was not "poisoned" by the noble ladies in the capital, so she felt relieved and ate a piece of sheep scorpion. Not to mention that the children were greedy, she herself was also greedy, and there was barbecue. When Liaodong Prefecture was established, she would have to go to the house for anything.
Have a good meal.
After the meal, a few people walked around the courtyard, and Bai Shao and others went into the room to clear the table. The lights had already been turned on in the lobby, and they had to drink for a while to hear the noise, and some people had already drunk too much.
Cheng Xue and Lian Shi didn't care about this. After all, Li Hui is a master who gets sober the more he drinks. He will definitely not be the one who loses his temper after drinking too much.
Li Yue and Li Tian were holding Sister Xuan's hands, one on the left and the other on the right. Lian looked at the three children and said with envy:
"It's better to have sisters. If I had a biological sister, I wouldn't be so isolated and helpless now."
She was favored before she got married, but she also had a foreign surname after she got married. Ever since she blocked her brother's marriage with the He family, her mother regarded her as a thorn in her side. Not only did her middle-age husband no longer use her, but she also took back her dowry in Jiangnan.
If it weren't for the schedule snow and Bai's cooperation in letting out the news that she was "seeking death", I don't know what Mrs. Lian would do.
Seeing her like this, Cheng Xue held her arm and comforted her:
"You just take care of yourself now, save more money, and ignore your mother's family for the time being. If your mother's family needs help, connections, and connections in the future that you can't provide, it's still within your means to contribute some money. You are so active in business, and you will consider staying if you want to.
It’s reached this point, isn’t it?”
"I can't hide anything from my sister-in-law." Lian agreed with a smile.
The He family is not a good in-law, but her mother insists on having her own way, and she has no choice. She wrote two letters to her father, but her mother probably sent people to stop them both times. The younger brother is also a nerd who only cares about studying. If he is really taken in
Trap, I'm afraid his father won't be able to save him.
If I bother my father again... No, no, I can't think about it. The more I think about it, the more worried I become.
After several people walked around the courtyard, Li Huai came out of the lobby.
The little guy had a round belly after eating. He ran to Sister Xuan in a few steps and said in an old-fashioned way:
"You're over a year old and you still can't walk? Come on, let me teach you."
Sister Xuan likes to play with older people, so there are Li Yue and Li Tian, and Li Huai is basically not ranked.
The little girl turned her head and refused. Li Huai wanted to pull her by force, but suddenly there was a sound from the kitchen——
"Mouse! Mom, is there a mouse in the kitchen?!"
Without waiting for Cheng Xue to respond, Li Huai rushed to the kitchen after finishing speaking. He doesn't know why, but whenever he encounters a mouse, he gets more excited than anyone else. We don't know if it's because he is a rat.
"You kid, please take it easy, even if you are a mouse, you can't..." So excited.
The last four words were stuck in his throat, so he quickly pulled Li Huai behind him to protect him, and said towards the cold light in the kitchen:
"We won't hurt you, just leave quickly."
"Bang-dang--" The kitchen knife fell to the ground with a sound, and the man turned around and started to walk through the window.
Before Cheng Xuesong could take a breath, Li Huai rushed over, pulled the person back violently, and threw him to the ground. Li Heng and Yan Yixin also happened to come out of the lobby and came over in time when they heard the noise.
Come forward to help, one of them lights the candle.
He is a child about the same age as Li Heng. His hands and arms are all oily, and he knows what he is doing without asking.
Bai Shao brought the plate over and said softly:
"Are you the one eating secretly this afternoon? If you want to eat generously, why are you sneaking around? Where are your adults?"
The child said nothing, but his stubborn expression made Cheng Xue feel strangely familiar.
Where have you seen it?
You know, she came to this other world and only knew a few people. It was impossible to meet the child but not remember it.
Seeing that the child's face was red from being strangled, Cheng Xue stepped forward and patted his son, saying:
"Forget it Tiedan, let him go. Looking at him like this, he probably has a younger brother and younger sister to take care of. Bai Shao, pack some more things for him, and you and Tiandong will go with him."
"Yes, ma'am."
Bai Shao agreed, helped the man up, and didn't mind that he was dirty. He helped put things into the basin, and also put some leftover steamed buns and pancakes from lunch.
After the child was sent away, without Cheng Xue complaining, Li Tian told his brothers exactly what Li Huai had done just now. Li Yue was nagging angrily and wanted to take action but was reluctant to do so. Li Heng didn't care.
Well, I just picked up my brother's collar and went back to the house to teach him a lesson.
Seeing this, Li Yue hurriedly urged Yan Yixin to follow, not forgetting to remind:
"Brother Yixin, please stop me. Tiedan's hands are weak, don't let Sidan get damaged."
Not to mention that Li Heng was angry, Yan Yixin was also very angry, but he didn't show it to the little girl and just nodded. As for whether to do something or not, only he knows...
