Chapter 1657: Bad Luck
Wan Xuemei left after lunch. After Lu Xiaoxiao took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them, she went into the space to make the ointment. According to her calculations, Zhang Xu would come to get the ointment in half a month, so she had to hurry.
Lu Xiaoxiao, who had spent an entire afternoon in the pharmacy, had no idea that the door of her yard was knocked loudly in the afternoon, nor did she know that a big trouble was waiting for her. If she had known, she probably would not have had any mood to make ointment in the pharmacy.
At around five o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaoxiao put down the medicine-making tools in her hand, put the prepared ointment into a large bottle, then went to the warehouse, took out 100 kilograms of rice and 100 kilograms of flour from the warehouse, and took them out of the space.
After leaving the space, she put away the rice and flour and went to the backyard to pick vegetables. Although she could not eat all the vegetables in the backyard, they would get old if she did not pick them, so she still needed to pick them every two days, and she would put the ones she could not finish into the space.
It was already dark when Lu Xiaoxiao finished picking the vegetables. After taking a look at the vegetables in the basket, she decided to have cold noodles tonight.
After dinner, she looked at the time and saw that it was almost eight o'clock. Liu Biao and his companions would soon come to get the food, so she went to the yard to enjoy the cool air so that she could quickly open the door when Liu Biao and his companions arrived.
More than half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao heard a knock on the door, so she walked to the gate and opened it.
"Master Xiao, we are here to get food." Liu Biao said to Lu Xiaoxiao after Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door to the yard.
"Come in, the food is ready."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Biao and the other three followed Lu Xiaoxiao towards the main hall.
After Lu Xiaoxiao entered the main room, she pointed to the two large bags of grain in the corner and said to Liu Biao and the other three, "The grain is all here, you can take it away."
When Liu Biao heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he did not immediately go to carry the food. Instead, he looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Master Xiao, I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
"I heard some things about you in the village today, but I don't know if it's true."
"Tell me about it."
"This afternoon, Lao Li's wife said that you are engaged to her youngest son."
"What? Say what you just said again." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Biao after scratching her ears with her fingers.
"This afternoon I heard from Lao Li's wife that you are engaged to her youngest son."
This time, Lu Xiaoxiao heard clearly what Liu Biao said, but it was worse than not hearing it clearly. What was going on? She didn't even know who Lao Li and Lao Li's wife were, so how could she get engaged to their youngest son?
Besides, she is only ten years old this year, how could she be involved in any relationship? It really makes her angry to death. This is simply like a disaster coming from the sky while one is still at home.
"Who is Old Li's wife? And who is her little son?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Biao.
"I don't know how to describe to you what Lao Li's wife looks like, but I can tell you what kind of person Lao Li's wife is."
"Tell me, I want to know what kind of person is Lao Li's wife. She dared to touch me."
Liu Biao swallowed unconsciously when he saw Lu Xiaoxiao getting angry, and then he spoke carefully: "Old Li's wife is a person who likes to take advantage of others. She likes to take advantage of others the most. I guess she saw some advantage in you that she could take advantage of, so she spread rumors in the village that you were engaged to her youngest son."
