Chapter 202: Little Did She Know That the Clown Was Herself
Lin Ziqiu stuffed it directly into his pocket and said, "It's cold outside, wear more clothes, a hat and gloves. You're grown up now, you should save some money for emergencies."
Tian Xiaofeng refused to take it, and took out the money and handed it over, "Sister! I have money! I haven't used the salary Uncle Jiang gave me before the New Year, and I also received a lot of red envelopes during the New Year. You can keep this money and save more. If you don't have enough money for something in the future, I can give it to you!"
He patted his chest, his eyes full of determination.
In the past, he thought that as long as he could have enough food to eat, money didn’t matter, as long as he had enough to spend. But since he knew that Lin Ziqiu might divorce Zhong Heyang in the future, he worked so hard to make money and started saving money.
Not only him, but also my eldest brother.
My eldest brother sent some money back before the New Year, which was specifically for my sister.
Let him keep it first and give it to his sister when she needs it.
Seeing that he was determined not to accept it, Lin Ziqiu did not force him, "Then when you come back, I will make you something delicious!"
"Great! I like this one!" Tian Xiaofeng laughed happily.
Lin Ziqiu tapped his forehead and scolded with a smile: "You! You are such a little foodie!"
···
As soon as the rain stopped, the Zhao family began to prepare for the wedding.
Zhao Huaian had been trapped at home for so long, and he thought that when he saw Zhong Xuexi, he would hug her and kiss her madly.
But when he actually saw it, he immediately got scared.
Don’t kiss me anymore. He doesn’t even dare to hug me.
Zhong Xuexi immediately made a stop gesture, "Men and women should not touch each other, you...you stay away from me! We have to keep our distance!"
Zhao Huaian felt bitter, "You are my future wife, I don't want to keep a distance from you! I want to be next to you, stick to you, wherever you go, I will go too."
Zhong Xuexi hadn't seen him for several days, and suddenly she felt that he was a little strange and couldn't get close to him.
In the words of later generations, it means that he suffered from social phobia.
"No! No way! You said you're my future daughter-in-law, so you can only do these things in the future."
Zhao Huaian: “…” Okay, okay, you just want to torture him, right?
Zhao Huaian was silent for a long time before he said, "Will you come to my house for dinner today? My mother wants to see you."
Zhong Xuexi was so frightened that her hair stood on end. When she was little, she liked going to the Zhao family to play. Aunt Zhao was very kind to her and fulfilled her dream of having a soft and cute daughter.
At that time, Zhao Huaian began to bully her all the time. Every time she complained, Zhao Huaian could not escape the mixed doubles beating from his parents.
But ever since she and Zhao Huaian confirmed their relationship, she has become a little shy, always feeling nervous like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law.
Seeing that she hadn't said anything and had a strange expression, Zhao Huaian asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go? That would be a waste of all the delicious food my mom prepared, all your favorites."
His mother's cooking skills can only be described as average, but the iron pot stew she makes is very popular. Everyone who has eaten it praises it, especially when she puts corn tortillas on the side and dips it in the soup, it is simply amazing!
Zhong Xuexi hasn't tasted Aunt Zhao's cooking for a long time. In addition, she has lost nearly 20 kilograms in recent times. You can imagine how tightly she controls her mouth.
As Lin Ziqiu said, losing weight means moving your legs and controlling your mouth. Since she can't move her legs, she can only control her mouth!
Especially during the Chinese New Year at home, they all ate delicious food and drank spicy drinks, but Zhong Xuexi was the only one who ate corn and boiled vegetables.
God knows how tempting the iron pot stew is to her at this moment.
"I... I didn't say I didn't want to go. I've been locked up at home for so long, it's time for me to go visit my aunt." Zhong Xuexi made up her mind, "Well, I'll go home and tell my grandma, I'll go over later, you go back first."
After saying that, she ran away without looking back.
Zhao Huaian was not idle either, and rushed home, "Mom! Go cook! Make an iron pot stew!"
Zhao's mother was sitting in the house watching TV. She glanced at him unhappily and said, "You haven't even married your wife yet, and you're already thinking about eating. Don't delay me from watching TV."
The corner of Zhao Huaian's mouth twitched slightly, "It's just that your daughter-in-law wants to eat, she will be here later."
Mother Zhao almost thought she had misheard and immediately stood up from the rocking chair, "You bastard, why didn't you tell me earlier that Xue Xi was coming to our house for dinner? There's nothing prepared at home!"
Zhao Huaian admitted that he was in the wrong and did not argue. He just wanted to stay with Zhong Xuexi longer, so he thought that inviting her to his house for dinner was the best idea.
"Hurry up, she won't be that fast."
Looking at Zhong Xuexi's expression just now, it was obvious that she was not going home to say hello to her grandmother. She just wanted to change her clothes and dress up before coming back.
The last time she came to my house, she took a long time to come and even put on makeup before coming.
Mother Zhao didn't dare to delay any longer and rushed straight to the kitchen.
On the other hand, Zhong Xuexi opened her closet and started choosing as soon as she got home, but many of the clothes were the ones she wore when she was fat before. Now, they looked big and bloated, or the styles were no longer what she liked.
"You're not eating at home at noon, where are you going to have fun?"
Lin Ziqiu and Ruan Qing walked in from outside and had just heard about it from Li Guixiang.
Ruan Qing sat on the bed, raised her eyebrows, and smiled evilly, "She must be going on a date with her brother Huai'an!"
Zhong Xuexi blushed, "If you are envious, go find one as soon as possible."
Ruan Qing crossed his legs, looking particularly relaxed, "I don't want to be like some people who are obsessed with love and value women over friendship!"
"I don't know who it was at the beginning, but he kept chasing after my brother." Zhong Xuexi suddenly realized something and pointed at Ruan Qing and asked, "You didn't play with me just for my brother, did you?"
Ruan Qing: “…”
It’s over, I was finally discovered.
"How is that possible!"
Ruan Qing didn't dare to admit it directly, and threw dirty water back, "You actually doubted my feelings for you! What about you! When you were chasing..."
"Stop, stop!" Zhong Xuexi didn't want to mention Wei Zhihe at all. She felt unlucky when she thought of him.
She waved her hand indifferently, "The past is too painful to look back on, we have to look forward to everything, right, sister-in-law!"
Lin Ziqiu couldn't help laughing and said, "Two elementary school students."
Ruan Qing shouted, "She is the one being wronged! I am not the one being wronged!"
Zhong Xuexi didn't care about being called childish. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you came at the right time. Which dress do you think I should wear?"
“I feel like I have nothing to wear.”
She used to be very fat and was often laughed at, so she always had low self-esteem and didn’t have the confidence to wear beautiful clothes. She always dressed very simply.
The whole person is rustic.
When she thought about when Lin Ziqiu had just married into the family, she laughed at him for being a country bumpkin.
Little did she know that the clown was herself.
