Chapter 372 The White Lotus is Here Again
Xia Liang nodded. She would not live here for very long, only two or three months, and would be leaving soon.
The experience on the train was still fresh in her memory. The relationships between people really depend on fate, and not all people can get along well with each other.
"Wife, are you hungry? I'll go get you some food!"
Although they have a yard, Ning Zhiyuan rarely cooks at home and there is nothing in the kitchen.
Xia Liang shook her head. She was still a little sleepy. "Zhiyuan, go and do your work first. I'll take a nap and we'll talk to you in the evening!"
Ning Zhiyuan saw that she yawned, so he didn't force her. He helped Xia Liang to the room to sleep.
At this time, the women in the yard were really making a lot of noise.
"Hey, is that little girl you just mentioned really Ning Zhiyuan's wife?"
"Of course they are. Didn't they say Ning Zhiyuan got married?"
"Ning Zhiyuan is already married, why does Meng Xiaoxiao come to see him every few days?"
In the past, Meng Xiaoxiao often came to look for people, and everyone in the yard thought that they were a couple and would be together sooner or later.
Who would have thought that was not the case at all.
"If you ask me, Ning Zhiyuan is really lucky!" A woman in her twenties, holding a baby in her arms.
"What do you mean?" someone asked in confusion.
"Don't you know how badly he was injured last time? I heard that he was in a coma for two or three days and didn't wake up. The hospital issued several critical illness notices at the time, but his parents didn't even come!"
Speaking of this, many people feel a little chilled!
How caring you must be as parents. Your son is almost dying, and you still don’t come to see him. Even if you are busy, you should at least take some time off to come over, right?
"That Meng Xiaoxiao was also called away by her family! I heard that they were worried that Ning Zhiyuan would rely on her..."
"But who would have thought that he would wake up after such a serious injury? Didn't he go blind later? I don't know where he went to get treatment, but they ended up getting married right there!"
"If you don't say he's lucky, then what is? With injuries as serious as his, an average person would still be lying in bed unable to get up!"
Everyone thought about it and it really made sense. One of them suddenly realized, "It seems that Ning Zhiyuan is a good daughter-in-law. She is lucky in bringing good fortune to her husband..."
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, what are you talking about? How dare you say such nonsense? This is feudal superstition!"
The woman who just said that she would bring good luck to her husband lowered her head in embarrassment. She also knew that some things should not be said casually, but they still paid attention to this.
"Hey, Xiao Li is just talking casually. In fact, we all talk about this. Some families live a prosperous life after getting married, while others are particularly unlucky after getting married. Although these things cannot be said, we have to believe them!"
Everyone was talking excitedly when suddenly someone coughed.
"Hey, isn't this Meng Xiaoxiao? Why are you here?"
Seeing Meng Xiaoxiao coming again, the aunties made faces.
After Ning Zhiyuan came back, Meng Xiaoxiao came to see him almost every day. However, Ning Zhiyuan was also a stubborn person and never let Meng Xiaoxiao enter his yard.
But Meng Xiaoxiao is very stubborn. No matter how Ning Zhiyuan treats her, she still comes on time.
Look, there is a lunch box in my hand.
"I just saw that the cafeteria was serving braised pork. Yuan Ge loves to eat this, so I bought her one!"
Meng Xiaoxiao had a faint smile on her face. She was no longer in the army, but because of her father, she still stayed in the dormitory and came to Ning Zhiyuan every day to show her courtesy.
Several aunties made faces, but no one reminded Meng Xiaoxiao. They all craned their necks to see what Meng Xiaoxiao's expression would be when she knew Ning Zhiyuan's wife was here.
Meng Xiaoxiao walked to Ning Zhiyuan's yard and called out politely, "Brother Zhiyuan!"
Ning Zhiyuan was in the house, just about to go out to get some food when he suddenly heard Meng Xiaoxiao's voice. His brows furrowed tightly.
Thinking that his wife had just laid down, he didn't want Xia Liang to be woken up.
Ning Zhiyuan hurried out and saw Meng Xiaoxiao standing outside. His face turned cold and he asked unhappily, "What are you doing here?"
"Brother Yuan, I..." Meng Xiaoxiao came over excitedly, but what she saw was the man's cold face. She pouted in grievance, and if people didn't know, they would think that someone had bullied her.
"Meng Xiaoxiao, I think I told you before, don't call me Brother Yuan! We are not that familiar with each other!"
"Besides, even if we were neighbors before, I never promised you anything. Now I'm married and have a wife. If you keep calling me like that, aren't you afraid that my wife will misunderstand you?"
Meng Xiaoxiao's eyes turned red and her eyes were filled with tears, almost falling out.
She looked at Ning Zhiyuan with foolish eyes, without saying a word, just looking at him helplessly.
The women who were playing in the yard also came over quietly. They didn't dare to get too close, but their eyes were fixed on him.
This is a big drama! They knew before that Meng Xiaoxiao had bad intentions towards Ning Zhiyuan. But even though Ning Zhiyuan was married, Meng Xiaoxiao still came every few days, bringing food and drinks. This was the first time they had seen such a shameless woman.
"Meng Xiaoxiao, I'm telling you again, please leave me here! My wife just came back and is still very tired. She needs to rest, please leave, okay!"
Because of the relationship between the two families, Ning Zhiyuan didn't want to go too far. In the past, when he knew Meng Xiaoxiao was coming to see him, he tried to come back as little as possible. Now it's different, his wife is here, Ning Zhiyuan doesn't want Xia Liang to be angry. After all, this Meng Xiaoxiao is nothing in his heart.
"Brother Yuan, I..."
"You called my name!" Ning Zhiyuan's eyes were cold and his words were not polite at all.
"You are no longer in this unit, so please go home as soon as possible! You stay in the dormitory all day. Although we are too embarrassed to drive you away, you should also know your place, right?"
Meng Xiaoxiao's eyes became even redder. She sobbed softly, clutching the lunch box tightly in her hands.
"Ning Zhiyuan, I just mean well. I just saw some braised pork in the cafeteria. I know you like it, so I made a portion for you. How can you say that to me? Even if you are married, we grew up together. You are like my brother. What's wrong with me buying you some braised pork?"
The auntie who was not far away was stunned when she heard this.
They didn't know that Meng Xiaoxiao was so eloquent.
"No need. There is no relationship between us. What's the matter? You should go home quickly!" Ning Zhiyuan didn't even look at her, turned around and was about to leave.
