Chapter 4 He grabbed her into his arms

Her voice was gentle, but full of grievance, and her eyes were even covered with a layer of mist, which made people feel particularly distressed.

After hearing her say this, everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Mingfang, and her eyes clearly said:

Sure enough, she is not my biological daughter-in-law, so I won't really feel sorry for her.

Wang Mingfang obviously didn't expect that Xia Qingxing, who had always been honest and stupid, would not listen to her and even set a trap for herself. After she came to her senses, she hurriedly said:

"What are you talking about, kid? Everyone in the yard can see clearly how I treat you. You can't say such heartless words!" After that

, she turned to look at Zhao Cuilan and said righteously:

"Aunt Cuilan, you are a good person, but you are bad because of your mouth. Look at what happened today. Why don't you apologize to Qingxing?"

Wang Mingfang was indeed powerful. In just a few words, she shifted the conflict back to Zhao Cuilan.

Zhao Cuilan was unwilling to pay compensation and apologize to this useless country girl, but she was afraid that the second son of the Lu family would really drag her to the police station, so she could only reluctantly say to Xia Qingqing:

"It was my fault today. I shouldn't have said that to you. I'm here to apologize to you. Don't bother with me."

Although she could see that she was not sincere, Xia Qingqing was satisfied that she could save her face and let her admit her mistakes in public.

"That's right, don't talk nonsense in the future. Those who know will think you are kindly reminding me, and those who don't will think you are deliberately bullying the younger generation." Wang Mingfang said with a smile.

It seemed like a casual remark, but it was a subtle reminder to Zhao Cuilan. Sure enough, Zhao Cuilan was fooled the next second, and began to make excuses for herself according to her words:

"Yes, yes, yes, Jingchen, Auntie is just kind-hearted, just want to remind Qingxi not to do anything to let down your Lu family.

Think about how she relied on you to marry her, everyone knows it."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Jingchen's face darkened instantly, his brows were locked, and he clenched his fists unconsciously. It can be seen that he was trying his best to suppress his anger.

No matter what the inside story was between him and Xia Qingxi, as a younger brother-in-law, it was not a glorious thing for him to marry a sister-in-law who had not yet married into the family.

This is also the reason why he did not go home for four years after joining the army.

This is the shame of the Lu family, but an outsider brought it out in the open without any scruples. Anyone with a bit of shame would feel ashamed.

Wang Mingfang deliberately brought up the topic, just to embarrass Xia Qingqing through Zhao Cuilan's mouth. Who told her to be disobedient and squeeze herself just now

? At this time, the eyes of the people around looked at Xia Qingqing unconsciously with a hint of contempt.

Lu was shocked and his face turned ashen, and his anger was overflowing.

Wang Mingfang realized that his goal had been achieved, so he pretended to be a good person and tried to smooth things over:

"Oh, why are you talking about this again? It's been so many years. My children are so grown up now. We have forgotten all these things. No one is allowed to mention them again in the future, so as not to affect the relationship between the two brothers."

This man is really cunning!

Xia Qing sighed secretly. His words were flawless. He reminded Lu Jing that he was sorry for sleeping with his "sister-in-law" and showed that they were generous and would not hold it against him.

But Xia Qingxi is no longer her original body without a mouth, and she will not accept this dumb insult. She looked at Wang Mingfang, and asked back with anger and determination:

"Auntie, wasn't it you who gave your son Lu Lidong the idea to get me into the bed of the drunk Jingzhen?"

This sentence contained too much information, and everyone looked at Wang Mingfang in unison, with doubt and inquiry in their eyes.

Lu Jingzhen's eyes flashed with surprise, and he looked at Xia Qingxi with a scrutinizing look, and frowned slightly unconsciously.

Wang Mingfang's face suddenly changed. She didn't expect that Xia Qingxi, who had always been submissive and stupid, would suddenly reveal the truth of the year. However, they had done it perfectly at the time. She knew that Xia Qingxi would definitely not be able to produce evidence now, so she quickly calmed down and said,

"Hey Qingxi, I know you want to restore your image in his heart because you see Jingchen is back, but how can you put such a stinky shit pot on me?

When you first came, my family Lidong and I treated you so well. We never despised you for being from the country. We were just waiting for you to get a marriage certificate when you were old enough.

Who knew you would have such thoughts about Jingchen and do such a thing, making them... The two brothers and even the entire Lu family were laughed at. Afterwards, Jing Jing also married you. We, Lidong, did not blame you. Auntie has never blamed you in these years. But now you say that I asked Lidong to harm you. Alas! Qingxi, you can't be so heartless!"

Wang Mingfang became more and more sad as she spoke. In the end, she even wiped her tears. People around her also began to point fingers at Xia Qingxi, saying that she was ungrateful.

In fact, Xia Qingxi had expected such a result before she told the truth. After all, the original body did not explain when the incident happened. It has been four years. If she said it again, no one would believe it.

However, her original intention was not to make people believe her immediately, but to plant a seed of doubt in their hearts.

Public opinion was on her side, and Wang Mingfang was even more fearless. She knew that Xia Qingxi had no evidence, so she deliberately said:

"Qingxi, if you insist on saying that we harmed you, then you can take out the evidence. As long as you can prove that we harmed you, you can not only find the police to arrest us, but Lidong and I will also kowtow to you and apologize."

Xia Qingxi did not have any evidence now, and she could not say that the original book was written like this, but she had already made up her mind. Since no one believed what she said now, let them say it themselves.

"Whether you did it or not, you know it better than anyone else. Don't worry, there will be evidence soon. When the time comes, my aunt must remember what I said today." Xia Qingxi looked at Wang Mingfang with a calm look, as if she wanted to see through her hypocritical disguise.

Somehow, although she knew that she had no evidence, Wang Mingfang actually felt guilty when she was looked at like this, and pretended to be calm and said:

"Then wait until you show the evidence."

Seeing Xia Qingxi's firm words, different voices appeared in the crowd, and they began to doubt whether there was really any hidden story behind the "bed climbing" incident.

People who have done bad things always feel guilty. Wang Mingfang didn't want to cause trouble, fearing that Xia Qingxi would say something again, so she looked at the crowd and urged:

"Okay, okay, everyone go back to cook."

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, everyone dispersed one after another.

Lu's startled eyes swept over Xia Qingxi and Wang Mingfang, and became gloomy.

Wang Mingfang seemed to have sensed something, and turned to look at Lu Jingchen with a guilty conscience, and soon became eager again:

"Jingchen, you must have had a hard time on the road, let's go home." Then she raised her hand to help Lu Jingchen carry the bag.

"No need." Lu Jingchen said in a cold voice, avoiding Wang Mingfang's hand and not giving her face.

Wang Mingfang's hand fell in vain, and her smile froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Lu Jingchen ignored her and turned to look at Li Qiulian who had not left yet and greeted her:

"Aunt Li, are you and uncle okay?"

"Yes, yes, everything is fine." Li Qiulian looked at Lu Jingchen, whom she had not seen for several years. This face that was somewhat similar to Su Hui reminded her of her dead friend. Suddenly, she was overwhelmed with grief and her voice was choked.

When she calmed down a little, Li Qiulian looked at Lu Jingchen and asked:

"How is my runner-up doing in the army? He is not guilty and does not listen to the leader's command."

"No, he is doing well." Lu Jingchen said, and then continued: "Then I will come to see you when I am free."

"Okay, go back and have a rest." Li Qiulian nodded quickly.

After bidding farewell to Li Qiulian, Lu Jingshu walked home. Wang Mingfang followed him eagerly and said,

"Child, why didn't you send a telegram before going home? Look, there's not even any decent food prepared at home, and your father is on a business trip..." She

didn't seem to regard herself as an outsider at all in her words, and acted like the hostess of the house.

Lu Jingchen suddenly turned around and interrupted her, asking in a stiff tone:

"Why are you here?"

Wang Mingfang didn't expect him to ask so directly. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Oh, your elder brother and sister-in-law both have to go to work and are too busy. I came to help take care of the children. Your father is also busy and can't take care of Xiaoxue..."

"When are you leaving?" Lu Jingchen obviously didn't want to hear her continue, and asked directly, without giving her any mercy.

Xia Qingqing, who was following behind, couldn't help but applaud Lu Jingchen in her heart. This man was not only not deceived by Wang Mingfang's hypocritical appearance, but also very clear-headed.

Wang Mingfang didn't expect Lu Jingchen to chase her away directly. She couldn't hold back her smile, but she was always smooth in her words and actions, and immediately made her attitude clear:

"I will leave when the child is older. Jingchen, you know it's not appropriate for me to live here..."

"If you know it's not appropriate, just leave early."

Looking at Wang Mingfang who was choked by her words, Xia Qingqing gave Lu Jingchen a thumbs up in her heart.

Lu Jingchen didn't give her a chance to continue, and directly ordered her to leave. After that, he walked into the house with his bag.

There was a chubby little girl about 10 years old in the house, sitting on a small stool, listening to the radio attentively, and laughing from time to time.

"Xiaoxue, your second brother is back. I just called you, but why didn't you come out?"

Wang Mingfang said to Lu Xiaoxue as she walked inside, as if she had completely forgotten the embarrassment of being chased away.

"Oh, stop making noise. I can't hear "Nezha Trouble in the Sea" clearly." The girl said impatiently.

"This kid, your own brother is not more important than you listening to the story." Wang Mingfang lightly reprimanded, looking like a loving mother.

Lu Xiaoxue was upset again by the noise. She turned around with a temper and saw Lu Jingchen putting the bag he brought back on the table. Looking at the bulging bag, Lu Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and asked,

"Second brother, what good things did you bring back? Any food?"

As she said that, she ran over quickly. She ran so fast that she didn't notice Xia Qingxiong who was just entering the house, and bumped into him.

Lu Xiaoxue was strong, and Xia Qingxiong's current body was too fragile. The huge impact hit her waist and abdomen. She stood unsteadily and leaned backwards. Next to her was the raised corner of the table. Before she fell, she instinctively raised her hands to grab something she could reach.

Before she could catch anything, an arm reached out. The arm was long and powerful, and it seemed to be effortless. It just gently grabbed her and put her in its arms.
