"I didn't expect it." Lin Xiangyi looked at Lu Dingyuan with a somewhat ironic smile on her face and said, "Miss Huihui, who never did housework in our family, turned out to be so diligent after marrying you."
Then she looked at Lin Huihui again, "If Aunt Chen saw this, she would be very pleased, right?"
Is this a mockery of her?
Lin Huihui's face looked a little ugly.
"Huihui has always been sensible and virtuous. Do you think it's you?" Lu Dingyuan said with a cold face.
"Okay, okay, then let her be sensible and virtuous," Lin Xiangyi said indifferently, "I think it's good too."
After saying that, she didn't care about Lu Dingyuan and Lin Huihui's reactions and pulled Xie Qingxiao away.
The country road is not big, just enough for two people to walk side by side. The road is also a mud road. Because it hasn't rained for a long time, it is slippery from being trampled by people and is very easy to walk on.
The area where the Xie family lives is where villagers live densely, with a family every few meters.
But at this time most people are out working, many people are not at home, and most of those who are at home are either the elderly or children.
Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi, who had closed their doors, just passed by. Those who had left their doors open peeked in and chatted with the people they saw.
Lin Xiangyi is not shy and can chat with anyone:
"Have you eaten yet? We have eaten, and we are bored so we came out for a walk... Come here, little friend, I will treat you to some wedding candy..."
The villagers said, "It's already noon, we are ready to make lunch... What are you doing... No, no, what candy do children need? Take it back quickly, this candy is expensive... The little brat is greedy! Oh, I've made you spend money again, thank you..."
Except for the people from the Lu family, no one would say that it was Lin Xiangyi's fault for what happened at the Lu family yesterday.
But the way she dragged Xie Qingxiao to the Lu family to argue inevitably made people think that she had a difficult personality to get along with.
Her actions instantly changed the villagers' impression of her and made them feel favorable towards her.
Even Xie Qingxiao, who had never had a good reputation in the village, was no longer considered a bad person.
Two different people can sleep in the same bed. How can Xie Qingxiao be a bad person since he can marry such a good wife like Lin Xiangyi?
So some enthusiastic old people advised Xie Qingxiao earnestly: "Ah Xiao, now that you have married and started a family, you have to change your temper. You can't be idle like before. You have to farm to earn money to support your wife. When your wife gives birth to a baby, you still have to raise the baby. You can't let your parents worry about you anymore..."
Xie Qingxiao: “…” His parents said so, and so did the villagers… In their eyes, is he so irresponsible?
He could only respond: "Yeah, I know...Okay, my parents also said so...Okay!"
Lin Xiangyi laughed at the look of him agreeing under duress.
They also met Fengjie, who had just come back from washing clothes and was hanging them out to dry in her yard.
Yesterday, she was forced by Lin Xiangyi and Xie Qingxiao to testify at the Lu family. She was quite resentful towards them. When she saw Lin Xiangyi and Xie Qingxiao, she didn't look happy. She snorted and was about to go back to the house.
"Sister Feng," Lin Xiangyi called her as if nothing had happened, "Good morning, have you just finished washing clothes?"
Fengjie turned around in disbelief. How could Lin Xiangyi, a newly married young wife, be so shameless? Was she just pretending that what happened yesterday never happened?
Lin Xiangyi seemed to see through what Sister Feng was thinking, and said with a smile: "Sister Feng, I came here today to thank you. Thanks to your righteous words yesterday, I was able to clear up the dirty water thrown at me by those people from the Lu family. Otherwise, wouldn't I be speechless and unable to express my grievances? These candies are a little gift from me..."
In fact, Feng Jie felt a little guilty about saying bad things about Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi behind their backs, so she didn't dare to argue with Lin Xiangyi later.
Unexpectedly, she let bygones be bygones and not only praised her but also gave her a way out.
Feng Jie was too embarrassed to care about it. She hurried over, wiping her hands, her eyes glued to the candy in Lin Xiangyi's hand, and declined:
"What is there to thank for? I knew that the Lu family had good intentions, but I didn't expect them to wrongly accuse you. I just did what I should do. You can take this candy back..."
"No, even though you, Fengjie, speak for justice without asking for anything in return, I still have to thank you. Please accept it quickly," Lin Xiangyi said with a smile, stuffing the candy into Fengjie's hand.
Fengjie took it, but tried to refuse and asked Lin Xiangyi to take it back.
Xie Qingxiao was amazed. Why didn't he realize that Lin Xiangyi was so talkative before?
Feng Jie took Lin Xiangyi's candy, and in a blink of an eye, she became as close to Lin Xiangyi as real sisters. She pulled her aside and wanted to tell her bad things about the Lu family.
After Lin Xiangyi won over the people, she found an excuse and took Xie Qingxiao away.
Xie Qingxiao was puzzled when he saw this: "Why do you want to win over Sister Feng?"
Sister Feng went to the Lu family for a wedding yesterday, and she started speaking ill of them as soon as she came out. Now that she has accepted their benefits, she can drag them to speak ill of the Lu family. It is obvious that she is a fence-sitter.
In his opinion, there is no need to make friends at all.
Lin Xiangyi doesn't think so. "There's a saying that goes, it's better to offend a gentleman than a villain."
People like Fengjie cannot be close friends, but it is best not to offend them either. Otherwise, you never know when you will stab them in the back.
Xie Qingxiao was not unaware of this truth. Hearing this, he did not say anything more on the topic. Instead, he looked at Lin Xiangyi thoughtfully and suddenly said:
"Why do I feel like you're a little different from when you were in school?"
Lin Xiangyi paused.
In the past, because of Chen Fengmei and Lin Huihui, her personality was not cheerful. On the contrary, she was a little gloomy and silent. She devoted herself to studying hard, and just wanted to get into university as soon as possible and get away from the Lin family.
Nowadays, I dream a lot about my past life and plots from novels. My mentality is different, and my behavior has changed a lot. It is naturally different from before.
But he couldn’t tell Xie Qingxiao this, so he said, “That’s because you didn’t understand me before, just like I didn’t understand you before.”
She snorted and laughed, "I used to think you were a pervert."
Xie Qingxiao choked. He had tried so hard to get close to her and get her attention, but in her heart he was actually a pervert?
At this moment, Xie Qingxiao wanted to strangle Lin Xiangyi to death.
"What now?" he asked grimly.
"Not now," Lin Xiangyi said matter-of-factly, "After spending some time with you, I found that you are actually very responsible, have a good personality, and are good at taking care of people."
The corners of Xie Qingxiao's lips instantly raised up.
She is not blind!
He didn't bother with her about what happened in the past.
The sun in July was still very hot. After a while, Lin Xiangyi's face turned red due to the sunburn. Seeing this, Xie Qingxiao wanted to go home.
Passing by his vegetable garden on the way, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi went into the garden to pick two bitter melons and a handful of beans, preparing to go home and cook.
