Regardless of the daughter's thoughts, the Chu family came to show their goodwill first, and the Lu family also wanted to have a good relationship with the family. So the next day, Lu's mother steamed the buns and prepared to send them to the next door.
Seeing Mother Lu packing the buns and getting ready to go out, Chu Yunli quickly stepped forward to take them, "I'll go!"
She took the buns and went out, leaving Mother Lu standing there stamping her feet anxiously.
It was Chu Feng who opened the door, still in that blue gown. Seeing her at the door, he was a little surprised, "Is something wrong?"
"Yesterday, your mother's pancakes were particularly delicious. Today, my mother made buns. You guys should try them too." As she said this, she handed the plate over.
Chu Feng's ears were slightly red, and he reached out to take the plate, "Would you like to come in and sit down?"
Chu Yunli nodded with a smile.
As soon as he entered the door, he bumped into Chu's mother coming out of the kitchen. Seeing her come in, he smiled and said, "Come in and sit down."
Very enthusiastic.
Chu Yunli was a little confused. Logically speaking, with her current status, even if Chu's mother wanted to interact with her neighbors, she probably wouldn't want to get close to her. After all, Chu Feng was a scholar, and reputation was the most important thing.
Slowly entering the door, he saw a very simple little courtyard. There was no extraneous furnishings in the house, but it was very clean. Chu Yunli praised it smoothly, "It's so clean."
Chu's mother raised her hand to help her pour the tea, "I used to have a hard time with Feng'er. At the beginning, I earned some money by cleaning and cooking for various houses. Therefore, I am best at cooking and cleaning."
After hearing this, Chu Yunli was quite surprised. The Chu family is no longer the same as before. Generally, people who have become rich will not like to mention the embarrassment they once had, but Chu's mother does not seem to be taboo at all. She praised again,
"Auntie is very powerful."
Hearing this, Chu's mother laughed, "I've heard all about you. When I see you, I feel like I'm seeing the old me. Others may alienate you, but I won't."
Chu Yunli: "..." That's because you don't know that I want to harm your son.
Now she and Li are living together as widows, and Chu Feng is a promising civil servant. If he wants, he can become an official at any time.
Just like what Mother Lu said, if Chu Feng knew about it, she would probably be torn to pieces.
This is a very kind and bitter woman. If she really doesn't want to do it, it will be really difficult.
"Auntie is a good person. Good people will be rewarded with good things. She will definitely be able to live in peace and prosperity in the future." Chu Yunli smiled lightly, exchanged a few words, and stood up to leave.
When I was going out, I saw Chu Feng standing in the yard with a book, watching her carefully. When he saw her coming out, he smiled and nodded to her as a greeting.
After moving to the back street, the Lu family brothers would come over occasionally to visit. Everything went on as usual. No one from the Li family came to the door anymore. After a few days, they heard about the marriage between the Li family and the Zhu family.
For a small number of people, it was quite a sensation at this time. It was not unusual for a concubine of the Zhu family to marry, but it was a bit strange to marry a man she had divorced.
Especially when this man just divorced half a month ago.
For a while, on the surface, everyone praised God's good marriage, but secretly they said all kinds of things. Some said that the Li family was lucky, some said that the girl from the Zhu family was blind, and some even suspected that Li Chaowen and the girl from the Zhu family might be in love with him.
They were already hooked up before...
The last guess is, to a certain extent, the truth.
To be honest, neither Lu Qiuniang nor Chu Yunli have found any signs of interaction between Li Chaowen and the girl from the Zhu family before he divorced.
Judging from the few words Chu Yunli heard from the Li family at that time, the Zhu family did not decide on the Li family from the beginning, but it seemed that the Li family could only fight for her after they got rid of her.
No matter which one, until now, the result will be the same as in the previous life.
Early the next morning after receiving the news, Chu Yunli took Xuan'er out for shopping, and then went to a famous restaurant in Man City. I heard that the girl from the Zhu family liked to come over.
She found a private room to sit, not because she wanted to meet her by chance, but because she wanted to see the girl. Speaking of which, Lu Qiuniang didn't know her yet.
For unmarried men and women who have just decided to get married, if they are in love, the time of engagement should be the time when their love is strong. If they are not acquainted before the engagement, this is the time to cultivate feelings. Therefore, Chu Yunli deduced that in the past few days, that Zhu
The girl at home should probably go out at Li Chaowen's invitation.
She ordered dishes and snacks, most of which were what Xuan'er liked to eat. Anyway, waiting for others was the second priority, and eating something good for herself was more important.
When talking about eating, we have to mention Mother Lu.
Recently, Chu Yunli lived with the couple. At first, she went shopping. Naturally, there was meat and vegetables. There were children at home, so she bought more meat. In the eyes of Mother Lu, she felt that she wasted a lot. She said bluntly:
One meal a day is enough.
Even if she repeatedly promised to have money in savings, Mother Lu felt that she could not spend money like this. Chu Yunli said and persuaded, and the old man was very persistent and even took over the grocery shopping.
Now it's better, my family is basically vegetarian.
Some things cannot bear to be thought about deeply. For example: Although the Li family and the Lu family are not very wealthy, they do not live like rabbits. Mother Lu asks her like this just because she is
A woman of peace.
She seemed certain that her daughter would not live a good life and had to live frugally in order to survive.
This makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
After all, it was for the mother and son's own good that the Lu family moved in with their mother and son. However, Chu Yunli really couldn't bear this kind of good idea.
She had made up her mind to let the two elders move back as soon as possible. After all, the Lu family was not always like this. After returning, the two elders could also eat some good food. On her side, no one was in charge of the food rations.
Watching from the sidelines, she can also earn some money.
Xuan'er ate the meat piece by piece, "Mom, the meat is delicious!"
Chu Yunli couldn't help but laugh, "Eat slowly, these are all yours."
Her little face suddenly narrowed into a smile, and she used an unskilled spoon to scoop a piece of meat into her bowl, "Mom, eat it too."
Looking at the piece of meat, Chu Yunli's heart suddenly softened, and she smiled and said, "Thank you Xuan'er."
The mother and son were enjoying themselves. After finishing the meal, they did not hear any news about the arrival of the Zhu family girl. Chu Yunli did not wait and took Xuan'er downstairs.
Sometimes, it's just that small.
She was slowly going down the stairs with her child in hand. Li Chaowen was guarding a girl at the bottom. The two came up talking and laughing.
Chu Yunli's eyes swept over the girl without leaving a trace. She was indeed a very good-looking rich girl. She was dressed in pink clothes and had a delicate appearance. She was walking very fast with a white face.
As they went up the stairs, the girl's steps moved faster. She was walking in front of Li Chaowen. They were two steps apart, so they were not so close. It seemed unintentional, but maybe she was being reserved.
Either way, it showed that she didn't want to get close to Li Chaowen.
Chu Yunli didn't want to hide, and still led her child slowly downstairs. When she turned the corner, Li Chaowen finally spotted the mother and son below. His eyes were surprised, and he wanted to speak, so he opened his mouth and closed it again.
This is to pretend not to know him.
Chu Yunli didn't care whether he recognized her or not. It was better not to recognize him. The reason why she came was to see this so-called Miss Zhu. After all, mother and son died because of her, but in the end she didn't even see the real owner.
Yeah, it’s so unfair!
The three adults and one child passed each other at the bottom of the stairs. Xuan'er wanted to call someone, but Chu Yunli squeezed his hand and said with a smile, "Can I make you some bunny snacks when you get home?"
The child was young and immediately became happy and said, "Okay."
Just as they were about to close the distance, Miss Zhu walked too fast, her feet staggered, and she fell over.
The direction she fell was exactly where the child was. Chu Yunli naturally wouldn't let her hold the child down, and subconsciously reached out to hold her arm.
After she was steady, Li Chaowen's hand reached her, and Chu Yunli took advantage of the situation and withdrew her hand.
Miss Zhu blushed, stood up straight and took a step back, farther away from Li Chaowen, then smiled at Chu Yunli and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Chu Yunli was a little surprised to be so sensible. You must know that the reason why she fell just now was because she was walking too fast, and because she subconsciously avoided Xuan'er, so she lost her balance.
Chu Yunli smiled lightly and said, "It's just a matter of convenience, no need to thank me, girl."
Li Chaowen held her shoulders and urged, "Let's go quickly."
Miss Zhu broke away, "There are so many people, what are you doing?" She looked at Chu Yunli again, "Sister-in-law, my father told me that a person should repay kindness. You saved me just now, why don't you... I invite you
You guys eat."
Li Chaowen was anxious, "It's just the two of us today, how can we..."
"Why not?" Miss Zhu suddenly realized, "By the way, you have to avoid suspicion. You should go back first and make an appointment another day."
Chu Yunli: "..." I never expected it!
With all her conscience, she really only wanted to see Miss Zhu's face when she came here, and didn't want to do anything else.
Li Chaowen: "..." I never expected it!
With all his conscience, he just wanted to avoid his ex-wife as quickly as possible. How could he have thought that his fiancée would ask his ex-wife to have dinner with him.
Can this meal be eaten?
No matter how stupid he is, he can still see that Miss Zhu is not very happy with him, and even feels a faint dislike for him. If these two women are allowed to have a meal, I am afraid that the Zhu family will find reasons to break off the engagement tomorrow.
At this time, he didn't dare to take risks.
Not wanting these two women to get together, he didn't dare to move from Miss Zhu's side, so he could only glare at Chu Yunli, "This is Miss Zhu from the General's Mansion. I will give you a thank-you gift later, and forget about eating."
Then he looked at the person next to him and coaxed softly, "You have a different status. Before going out, my aunt specially told me not to let outsiders get close to you and let others take advantage of you. These two are women and children. They look the same, but they are
I’m afraid they are members of the tribe pretending to be here to get information..."
Chu Yunli: "..." She wants to curse!
Did he really just open his mouth and treat her as a dead person?
She didn't want to do anything at first, but she couldn't help it anymore, and said with a half-smile, "A member of the tribe?"
"If I were a member of the tribe, this girl Zhu should stay away from you. You know, you have been sleeping with me, a member of the tribe, for three years."
