Chapter 220 He’s dead!
Perhaps this time's income gave the family confidence.
Perhaps it was because each family member had found an area where they could display their strengths, so everyone put aside their worries at the dinner table and it became quite lively.
Seeing Xie Xuan drinking alone, Su Hengji was afraid that he felt he had no one to talk to during the Su family reunion, so he took the initiative to ask.
"What's wrong with General Xie's hand?" Su Hengji was embarrassed to say the word "brother-in-law".
I saw a very eye-catching bandage wrapped around Xie Xuan's wrist.
Logically speaking, given his noble status, it is impossible for him to suffer any serious injuries.
Moreover, it is a holiday recently and there is no war.
That's why Su Hengji asked this question.
The wound on Xie Xuan's hand had healed long ago thanks to Su Shengsheng's daily care.
But now there are still some faint crescent marks on it, each one clearly visible.
Su Shengsheng, feeling guilty, bandaged him.
Su Hengji was just trying to make small talk, but he didn't expect that when he looked at Xie Xuan, who was aloof and cold, he actually laughed softly.
"I was bitten by a rabbit..." Xie Xuan looked at Su Shengsheng, who turned back and looked at him warily after hearing his words.
How dare you call her a rabbit?
He is just a wolf in sheep's clothing, sneaking into a group of sheep. Why is he pretending to be so powerful?
Su Hengji seemed to have not expected that Xie Xuan was actually bitten by a rabbit. He was unable to react for a moment and was speechless.
As if to prove that he was really bitten by a rabbit, Xie Xuan was about to lift the bandages to show him.
But Su Shengsheng, who was quick-witted and quick-handed, stopped him and said, "General, your hand can't blow away the wind."
If someone really saw it, would she still have the face to see people?
"It's just a minor wound, nothing serious. But my wife is too concerned and insisted on bandaging it. Now it's inconvenient for me to even eat an orange."
Threat, a real threat.
While Su Shengsheng and Xie Xuan were staring at each other, Su Hengji took an orange and started peeling it himself.
Xie Xuan raised his slender black eyebrows and looked back at Su Shengsheng nonchalantly, with a meaningful look in his eyes.
Her uncle and aunt tolerated it, so she could tolerate it too.
Su Shengsheng took the orange from her brother's hand with a smile.
"I'm here, I'm here."
Su Hengji watched his sister peel out the orange segments and feed them to Xie Xuan, then he covered his forehead with his hands in sudden realization.
"General, do you have any other instructions?" Su Shengsheng squeezed out her voice from between her teeth, wishing she could bite a hole in Xie Xuan's face.
Mrs. Li was secretly happy to see her daughter and son-in-law getting along so intimately.
Seeing these young people being so affectionate, Jiao just smiled secretly with her handkerchief in hand.
It seems that her worries were unnecessary.
Yes, General Xie liked their girl Sheng at that time.
Finally, the old lady gave the order and asked everyone to disperse early and go enjoy the moon.
Only then did Su Shengsheng escape from the hard work.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Xie Xuan acted like a demon and insisted on riding a horse with her to appreciate the moon.
"How can we see the moon from a carriage?"
He said it with great confidence.
Su Shengsheng looked around and saw the family members who came out to see Xie Xuan off, and had no choice but to ride with him.
Even though she was a modern person, this was her first time traveling with a man.
What's more, he was paraded through the streets.
Su Shengsheng endured it for a while, and when they were farther away, she snorted, "I told you, the moon doesn't shine."
Xie Xuan was tall and slender, and when he sat on the horse, the height difference was even more obvious.
He lowered his head slightly, and his sight just happened to catch Su Shengsheng's slightly raised face. Her eyes seemed to be embedded with a bright moon, shining with a soft and clear light.
The street lights are warm yellow, shining on passers-by.
Xie Xuan looked at the silver moon, which gently cast a faint glow in her eyes. Her originally dry and pulseless heart seemed to be gently moved by an indescribable force.
He couldn't help but hold the ear that was so alluring and white as a crescent moon in his mouth, letting ripples appear in her watery eyes.
"Well, the moon doesn't shine."
Su Shengsheng's body shook, and she struggled to get away.
If his parents saw him, he would be dead!
Su Shengsheng looked back over his shoulder in panic, but did not see her family.
She had just breathed a sigh of relief when she unexpectedly discovered a figure disappearing from the streets.
It's a woman.
Su Shengsheng gave him a strange look.
This was because the Su family bought a new house in a remote corner in order to save money.
The alley was so remote that even on a festival day, no woman should go into it without a lantern.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, he captured her lips.
Su Shengsheng was wearing a skirt, so she was sitting sideways on the horse.
She had just tilted her head back and popped it out from his left side.
So at this moment, she was half lying in his arms.
"...Is that our general?" Mu Ze looked at the two people who were inseparable and could hardly believe his eyes.
Qing Ning was the first to react and slapped him, "Still looking."
Without waiting for Ma Xing to come up to them, the two men turned their backs.
The Lantern Festival is different from usual days, as women are allowed to go out on this day.
Naturally, there is also a chance to meet your sweetheart.
So this day is also an unspoken date.
Standing on the street, Mu Ze was motionless, staring blankly at the two shadows leaning against each other as they walked away.
Some people, as if possessed by some mysterious force, hooked the finger of someone beside them.
"You know my parents... died in the war, leaving me alone. If you don't mind my clumsiness, will you be my wife?"
Qing Ning was startled by his sudden confession.
There were many people on the street. She wanted to shake them off, but Mu Ze held her tightly.
"Who wants to be your wife?" Qing Ning's face turned red, but the strength in her hands weakened.
Mu Ze got anxious when he heard this, "If you don't want to be my wife, whose do you want to be?"
Qing Ning was speechless after hearing his question. She stamped her feet and was about to leave.
But he was hugged by the anxious Mu Ze.
…
Su Shengsheng now feels like she is in a difficult situation.
Now Xie Xuan is using all the tactics of self-torture, taking advantage of others' misfortune, and letting the enemy go while they are still alive.
She seriously suspected that he was attacking her as an enemy.
Let her let her guard down first so that all her weaknesses will be revealed.
He kept showing weakness to confuse her family and took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in.
Anyway, she felt like she had nowhere to go and was blocked everywhere.
The net was closing in day by day, and she couldn't escape even if she had wings.
…
"Why is it so urgent?" Su Shengsheng looked at Qingning standing below with a red face, feeling helpless.
She also knew that the two of them were in love, but holding the wedding tomorrow?
Although Qing Ning had already written to Zai Qing, saying that he could get back in one day if he had a car, it was still too hasty.
She also wanted to prepare a good dowry for her.
"He calculated it... Tomorrow is a very auspicious day. Later... later..."
Seeing Qingning blushing and unable to continue, Su Shengsheng understood.
Just stop.
Grown-up girls are not allowed to stay.
Su Shengsheng took out the deeds for ten Shixianglou branches and handed them to Qingning, "This is considered your dowry before marriage."
Since the canteen left, the owners of ten Shixianglou restaurants have transferred their stores to her one after another.
Of course, the name later became Qingning and Ningyu.
But Ning Yu was more focused on helping her develop the mechanical looms in the factory on the barren mountain, and her mind was not here.
"From now on, the customers are yours. I will pay for the food of the common people. I will make other arrangements for Ning Yu's share."
"How can this be possible?" Qing Ning pushed her hand away, but Su Shengsheng held her hand firmly. "The other 10,000 taels of Jiaozi is your share."
Qing Ning is her right-hand man. If she didn't need funds now, she should give her more.
