Chen Shuning took out another bowl, poured a bowl of mung bean water, and handed it to Xu Laidi. He glared at Wang Chunni and said, "Laidi, let's ignore her. You should drink some water to quench your thirst and catch your breath so we can keep working and finish as soon as possible. You and Chunni don't need to cook tonight. Come to my place for dinner. Brother He will be there too, so it will be more lively with more people."

Chen Shuning invited the two to her place for dinner for two reasons: firstly, the three of them had a good relationship and occasionally ate together; secondly, because she and He Chaoyang were of different genders, she was afraid that eating alone together too often would have a negative impact.

After all, the requirements for girls in this era are still very strict. If any bad rumors really spread, even if there is nothing between her and He Chaoyang, she can still be drowned in other people's gossip.

Xu Laidi was clever and immediately realized why Chen Shuning had invited her and Wang Chunni. She smiled and replied, "Great! I was just worried that the autumn harvest was too tiring, and having to cook every day would be even more exhausting."

"Shuning, how about we eat together during the harvest season? We can take turns cooking. But Chunni and I have a small room, so could we cook at your place when it's our turn? Chunni and I will bring our own food rations."

Xu Laidi's suggestion was exactly what Chen Shuning wanted. She was still worried about how to bring up the idea of ​​sharing a meal, but Xu Laidi, this little cutie, brought it up first. She is such an understanding little fairy. I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry such a good girl in the future.

I tried hard to recall the description of Xu Laidi in the book, and it seems that this kind and understanding girl did not have a good ending.

Xu Laidi's family was poor. Although she was admitted to Kyoto Normal College the year the college entrance examination was reinstated, before she graduated, her younger brother got into a fight and crippled someone. Later, the injured person's family proposed a private settlement, but they asked for a huge sum of money.

In order to raise this money, the Xu family required Xu Laidi to drop out of school and marry a widower with a child.

The widower's ex-wife was beaten to death by him due to domestic violence. However, the man was rich and powerful, and the Xu family, knowing his character, still married Xu Laidi off to him for the sake of the generous dowry.

A few years after marrying into the family, Xu Laidi killed her husband in a fit of domestic violence because she could no longer endure it. She eventually died of illness in prison.
