"What's wrong with that? I'm just saying a few words in my own yard, why are you going to interfere?"
"Your background is already disgraceful, how dare you treat this place as your home?"
"How is my identity dishonorable? My marriage to Lu Xiangze was aboveboard. We applied for marriage, obtained a marriage certificate, and held a wedding ceremony. What's dishonorable about it?"
"Huh?" Zhao Yingying opened her mouth slightly.
Isn't she a concubine?
She turned to look at her aunt.
Zhao Dongzhu was also a little stunned. This was actually that country bumpkin?
"You're talking nonsense, he clearly got married in the countryside."
"Yes, I married him when I was sent to the countryside as an educated youth. Is there a problem with that?"
“You…you’re rude. Even city people don’t have manners. Aunt Lu, what’s the point of having a granddaughter-in-law like this? She’s not even as good as my Yingying.”
Zhao Dongzhu directly broke through this barrier.
“My Yingying is far better than this man. She's polite, respects elders, and cares for the young. She's even a factory worker now. Wouldn't she be a perfect match for Xiang Ze? I only just realized that the reason I wasn't meant to be with his father was actually because this was all along. My Zhao family…”
Hu Xiufen had never seen anyone so shameless.
I couldn't bear it anymore.
"The Zhao family? What's wrong with your Zhao family? They just have a little money. If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't have gone missing. He would have brought his wife back long ago. He wouldn't be living a lonely life! You should get lost. You keep talking about the Zhao family all day long. I'm sick of hearing it."
Hu Xiufen's barrage of remarks left Zhao Dongzhu in an awkward position.
“Aunt Lu, I used to treat you with the utmost respect.”
"Don't come here again. I don't want to see my son's tragedy repeated in my grandson. And what kind of person is your son? Don't you know? Don't push me too far, or you'll regret it."
Zhao Dongzhu was completely confused.
But Zhao Yingying was sweating profusely.
How did the Lu family find out about these things?
Zhao Yingying dared not stay any longer and pulled Zhao Dongzhu away.
Zhao Dongzhu was completely confused.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Zhao Yingying has not yet answered.
Two women walked by, whispering to each other.
Despite their hushed voices, their words still reached the two men's ears clearly.
"Why is that girl from the Zhao family here again?"
"They're trying to curry favor with Commander Lu, aren't they?"
"But isn't she already married? How dare she come? Didn't Commander Lu's son also get married?"
How did you know?
“My uncle and she were sent to work in the countryside together, and he told me that.”
"That's really shameless."
After saying that, the two of them left with smiles.
There's no need to ask Zhao Dongzhu anymore.
The results are all out.
Didn't you say you weren't married?
"I...I didn't get a marriage certificate."
Zhao Dongzhu was furious.
I was just about to confront those two gossipy women when I found out they had vanished without a trace.
In the Lu family courtyard.
Hu Xiufen was watching Su Qiao's expression, trying to figure out if she was angry.
In these kinds of situations, it's usually the woman who gets angry and suffers.
"Don't be angry, I can tell you what happened."
Su Qiao shook her head; those things were easy to guess.
"It's okay, I'm not angry. If I get angry at people like this, I'll be angry for the rest of my life. Maybe I'll even become a wrathful demon by then..."
Hu Xiufen was amused.
"Wrathful Vajra, how could you even think of that?"
Xia came closer curiously.
What is a wrathful Vajra?
Su Qiao gave a brief description, but Xia still didn't understand.
Go directly to Xiao Huai.
With him as her human translator, she was able to understand the meaning quickly.
Su Qiao observed the way the brother and sister interacted.
I always felt that Xiao Huai looked very familiar at certain moments.
She had always thought he looked like Lu Xiangze.
Now it seems that it's not just a matter of physical resemblance.
And other things too.
She just couldn't remember it for the moment.
After a day of rest, Su Qiao barely recovered.
Her initial idea was to carefully select high-quality fruits and vegetables from various regions and establish a safe and reliable food network.
However, there aren't many restaurants in J City right now.
Moreover, it's difficult to gain recognition by only supplying farmers' markets.
Everyone has their own channels.
Why not start by supplying a restaurant, allowing this awareness to gradually take root in everyone's minds?
Just sitting and thinking won't do any good.
Su Qiao got up very early the next day.
Lu Xiangze has already gone out to exercise.
Xia didn't miss out either.
Because of what happened before, everyone is always paying extra attention to Xia's health.
Although I have drunk the water from the sacred spring.
But I'm still worried that it might relapse.
So even if Xia sometimes tries to be cute and doesn't want to get up, she will be ruthlessly rejected.
Su Qiao waited for a while.
The father and his two sons returned.
Xia was being mischievous; as soon as she came back, covered in sweat, she wanted to pounce on Su Qiao.
Lu Xiangze had directly seized his fate by the back of his collar.
He picked it up and put it aside.
We made the two little ones go upstairs to take a bath.
After looking around to make sure no one was around, he quickly leaned in and kissed Su Qiao on the lips.
Su Qiao gave him a reproachful look, "It's still broad daylight!"
"So we can kiss tonight?"
Su Qiao did not answer.
Lu Xiangze happily went upstairs.
"I'll take that as a yes."
The three of them quickly went downstairs.
Breakfast was already laid out on the table.
Grandpa Lu and the others had something to do in the morning, so they went out early.
So now there are only the four of them at the dinner table.
After finishing her meal and cleaning up the dishes, Su Qiao announced her plans for the day.
"Go out for fun, and try the local food while you're at it."
"Okay!" Xia was the first to respond.
After leaving the note, the group went out.
For convenience, Su Qiao wore a shirt and black pants.
Lu Xiangze also specially picked out a similar one.
In the words of the book, this is what couple outfits are all about.
Su Qiao had a clear goal: she wanted to explore the local delicacies in the hutongs.
I've heard there are quite a few here.
You only find out which restaurants are good once you've been there; that's a valid point.
They were just about to go look for it.
I saw a middle-aged man sitting on the ground, looking extremely sad.
The two went over and asked.
Only then did I realize that this middle-aged man's family once owned a century-old shop.
However, it was forced to close during that period.
They were also kicked out.
Now, the family has both elderly and young members.
There's simply not enough time to manage it all.
Now he can only drive a rickshaw.
But his foot had been seriously injured before, and he couldn't outrun others.
He has nothing but his skills.
An idea suddenly flashed through Su Qiao's mind.
She took a closer look at the man's clothes.
He's crying here today because his foot injury has flared up again.
He dared not go home.
We can only rest here.
We'll go back when it's time.
After he finished venting his frustrations, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Even though we're complete strangers, listening to him complain so much must have really delayed their plans.
I heard that the two of them came looking for a restaurant to eat at.
They immediately recommended one.
His family is wealthy; they pulled some strings a long time ago, and now they're able to open a business.
The taste is also good.
