Chen Da bent down, pulled over a small stool, and sat down. He said slowly, "Ever since Xie Chen's pursuit of Lu Jing became known, I saw your evasive gaze and knew it. I've been waiting for you to speak."

"Then you should also know how many mocking words and looks Xie Chen and Stationmaster Xie have encountered."

"Know!"

"Then you should know how harsh the words of the villagers can be."

"Shanzi," Chen Da said in a serious tone, "You live your life for yourself, not for others. If you care too much about what others think of you, you will lose a lot of things, especially the most important thing to you, which will be heartbreaking."

"You don't care?"

Chen Da nodded.

"Where are Mom and Grandpa?"

"They only care about whether you're willing to get married. You're dragging it out, aren't you just planning to wait until they think like Stationmaster Xie, that any woman is fine?"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Okay! Since you've prepared yourself mentally, don't complain about me in the future."

Then he continued to squat down and take care of the bamboo strips.

"As long as you don't find a man to marry, everything will be fine. Why are you still doing this? Go and explain it." Chen Da was very disappointed.

"Should I go empty-handed? I'll weave a grasshopper for her first."

His son's leisurely attitude made Chen stand up in anger. It was true that the emperor was not in a hurry, but the eunuch was.

Lu Ying wiped away her tears vigorously, took a deep breath and entered Zhou's house.

Zhou's mother came out of the kitchen and saw Lu Ying's red eyes. After putting the bowl down on the table, she asked, "Lu Ying, what's wrong with your eyes?"

She didn't dare to guess that the redness was from crying. Who would dare to mess with this pair of sisters?

"It's okay, Aunt Jiang, I'll go back to my room and wash my face."

"Okay! Go ahead!"

There was no one in the room. Lu Ying, who wanted to cry and complain, took a deep breath. Forget it. Her sister was already feeling guilty, so she stopped talking. It was not the first time that she was called androgynous, although the person who said that was different this time.

After washing her face and looking at her big face in the mirror, she sighed. It was given by her parents, so she couldn't blame anyone.

I left the room only after I felt the redness in my eyes faded a lot.

Zhou wanted to see her and jokingly asked her about the things she bought for him.

Lu Ying smiled and shook her head. "I didn't see anything interesting. I'll buy it tomorrow."

Zhou Xiang felt something was wrong. Lu Ying's smile was a little fake, not reaching her eyes. "Okay! I'll buy it tomorrow."

After his elder brother came out, Zhou Xiang quietly approached him and asked, "Can you see if there is any illusion on Lu Ying?"

Zhou Yan in Zhou Niao's arms smiled, "Aunt, you asked the wrong person, you should ask me!"

"Yes! Ask my eldest nephew if he has any?"

Zhou Yan shook his head, "It's Aunt Lu Ying."

Zhou Xiang felt relieved, it was she who was seeing danger from everything.

After putting down the bowl, Zhou Xiang planned to ask Lu Ying what was wrong, because this girl only ate two bowls of rice and said she was full, which must be a problem.

Lu Jing was also a little worried. Since her sister came to her sister-in-law's house, she had never eaten less than five bowls of rice.

The two men had the same goal and were about to take action when a man walked in from outside the door.

"Xiao Chen?" Zhou Xiang was surprised. "Have you had lunch?"

If you didn't work that day, did you just hang around the streets for half the day?

Xiao Chen shook his head. "No! I have something to say to Lu Ying."

Lu Ying stood up and ran to the room, "I have nothing to say to you."

Zhou Xiang and Lu Jing looked at each other. What was going on?

Xiao Chen smiled awkwardly and shouted to the figure as she was about to enter the house: "Lv Ying, I love you!"

With a "bang", the voice had already aimed at the door frame. The person, frightened by the confession, paused for 0.01 seconds and hit his head on the door frame. Everyone who heard it felt the pain.

The one who felt the most distressed ran the fastest, "Yingying, let me see if the skin is broken?"

Lu Ying pushed him away and said, "Go away. I don't want to see you."

The door slammed shut in front of him, and Xiao Chen was gently pushed against the wall. His heart was filled with pain, not only because Lu Ying had controlled her strength in her rage and didn't hurt him, but also because of the tears of hurt and grievance in her big eyes.

"Yingying, I didn't mean to say that about you. I was talking about my dad! After all, outsiders would say that. I made up a lot of things for you just to apologize to you."

There was no movement from inside the door.

Zhou Xiang walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

When Xiao Chen heard Zhou Xiang's question, she seemed to have found a savior. "Miss Zhou, she accidentally heard what I said to my father. That wasn't my intention. It was just what others said when they mocked Xie Chen..."

Zhou Xiang pointed to the living room and said, "Let's go over there and talk. First, tell me about the conflict between you two."

Seeing that everyone in the living and dining room was sitting still, Zhou Xiang smiled, "Why? Everyone wants to see the ending?"

Professor Chu nodded. "Xiao Chen confessed his feelings directly without caring about us being there. Doesn't that mean he doesn't care about people watching?"

Xiao Chen nodded, "Yes! I love Lu Ying, and my dad supports me, so I want to pursue her openly. I don't care if you guys just watch."

Zhou Xiang hushed, "Everyone, be quiet! Xiao Chen wants to pursue me openly, but that silly girl in the room is still misunderstanding me. I'm going to call her, so everyone, be quiet."

Lu Ying lay on the bed and cried uncontrollably. Brother Chen disliked her so much, but suddenly confessed his love to her. He must be trying to coax her out of guilt. She didn't believe it!

The vibration of the phone in her pocket made her stop crying. She looked at the number and picked it up, "Sister-in-law~"

Zhou Xiang naturally put the phone on speakerphone. His voice was full of grievance and sadness, with a nasal sound of crying, which made Xiao Chen almost unable to hold back and speak.

Zhou Xiang glared at him, but Ling Ran covered his mouth. If he didn't want his personal bodyguard to be less close to him, he wouldn't care about this matter!
