Chapter 289 Were you an opera singer before?



Qiao Ling was also surprised to see Lin Xuanjiao's straightforward answer. Normally, shouldn't she be shy at this moment? Why was she so straightforward?

Thinking of what the villagers said this afternoon, Qiao Ling asked again: "I heard that you are getting married."

Lin Xuanjiao felt baffled: "Didn't I tell you I was getting married a long time ago?"

This wasn't what Qiao Ling wanted to say; she said it purely to set the stage: "I heard you went to the county town today and bought a whole bunch of stuff, including a bicycle and a sewing machine."

Lin Xuanjiao really had no idea what was happening. After all, she was still fast asleep when she returned to the village and had no idea what was going on.

However, after hearing Qiao Ling's clear description, Lin Xuanjiao knew that they were seen when they returned to the village.

But let them see it! Sooner or later, these things will be discovered.

Lin Xuanjiao, who didn't think it was a big deal, nodded and admitted, "Yes! We bought these when we went to the county town today."

Everyone who heard it gasped. If they guessed correctly, what Lin Xuanjiao and the others bought should be the legendary three turns and one ring.

Three turns and one ring is the highest standard of betrothal gifts. Even if Qiao Ling and the others came from the city, they might not be able to get three turns and one ring when getting married. A hundred yuan for betrothal gifts is the highest they can get.

What's more, this legendary three turns and one ring came from the countryside, and they thought it was from very poor country people.

No, that man might not have paid for it! Maybe Lin Xuanjiao bought it for herself just to save face. This was what Liu Yiyi and Su Jin thought.

They would rather believe that the money was paid by Lin Xuanjiao herself than by that country guy. They just didn't think that the bastard who was hated by everyone in the village was so rich.

However, they only dared to think about these ideas in their hearts and did not dare to express them out loud, otherwise, given Lin Xuanjiao's personality, she would definitely punish them.

It had not been long since they had received a lesson, and Liu Yiyi and Su Jin had no intention of provoking Lin Xuanjiao for the time being.

Qiao Ling didn't think as much as the other two did. She easily believed Lin Xuanjiao's words, her face full of disbelief: "Wow! Song Ying'an bought you three spins and one ring."

Seeing Lin Xuanjiao nod, Qiao Ling became even more envious: "He's so good to you. I don't know if I'll ever see the Three Turns and One Ring in my lifetime!"

Seeing Qiao Ling feeling a little lost, Lin Xuanjiao comforted her: "You will have opportunities in the future and you will meet someone who loves you."

Qiao Ling broke out in a cold sweat when she heard the word "lover". She hadn't gotten over the trauma of Gu Yongquan's family coming to her house to make trouble yet! Now she didn't want to get married at all.

Thinking of Gu Yongquan's family, Qiao Ling's initially envious heart suddenly cooled down. Her smile was a little forced: "I still want to live a few more years, so don't think too much about getting married."

As soon as Lin Xuanjiao saw Qiao Ling's expression, she knew that the psychological trauma caused by Gu Yongquan's family coming to her house to cause trouble had left a deep impression on Qiao Ling.

After all, Qiao Lingdu was still a little girl. In her own world, she might still be studying! It would be strange if she didn't have any psychological trauma after being disturbed by those people.

However, Lin Xuanjiao was not good at comforting others, and her relationship with Qiao Ling was not good enough for her to bother comforting Qiao Ling.

Not wanting to upset Qiao Ling, Lin Xuanjiao said, "I'm going to go wash up first. You guys should go to bed early!"

Qiao Ling perked up and said to Lin Xuanjiao with a smile, "I've already boiled hot water for you. It's in the pot. The hot water cools down slowly in this weather, so if you go take a shower now, it will be warm."

Lin Xuanjiao smiled and thanked him: "Thank you! You and Meng Qi have been helping me boil hot water these past few days."

Qiao Ling waved her hands quickly, "What's there to thank me for? This is what we should do. You've fed us, clothed us, and helped me take care of Gu Yongquan's family. Boiling hot water for you every day isn't enough. It's just that you refuse to give us your clothes to wash. Otherwise, we'd be happy to do it for you."

Lin Xuanjiao smiled and didn't respond. "I'm going out."

Seeing Lin Xuanjiao leave, the room suddenly became lively. When Lin Xuanjiao was here just now, Liu Yiyi and Su Jin didn't dare to speak, but now that Lin Xuanjiao was gone, they spoke up.

Liu Yiyi sneered, "How can a country bumpkin have so much money to buy a three-turn and a ring? I think she's just being vain."

Su Jin quickly agreed: "Exactly, I think she bought those things just to show off. I've seen through her for a long time. She's very vain."

Meng Qi rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Are you guys itching for mercy again? You want Lin Xuanjiao to give you some relief again?"

Liu Yiyi was so angry that her face turned pale: "Meng Qi, if you have the guts, say it to me again."

Meng Qi was fearless, with a defiant look on his face: "I can tell you as many times as you want to hear it."

"--you--"

Liu Yiyi was so angry that she was shaking all over. This Meng Qi was really despicable now. She was so unscrupulous relying on Lin Xuanjiao's support. But the sad thing was that she really didn't dare to do anything to Meng Qi. Before, she couldn't even beat Meng Qi with her small body.

Now Meng Qi has attached herself to Lin Xuanjiao again. As long as Meng Qi tells Lin Xuanjiao what she just said, she will definitely be dealt with by Lin Xuanjiao again.

Su Jin's eyes rolled back and forth as she urged Liu Yiyi, "Yiyi! Meng Qi is clearly looking down on you. Can you tolerate this? I can't stand it any more."

Listening to this crude provocation, Liu Yiyi's originally burning anger suddenly calmed down. She was angry, not stupid.

But Su Jin is really annoying. He keeps coming to disgust her.

Liu Yiyi, who was already angry, immediately retorted: "If you can't stand it, then help me beat him up! You can only stand by and make sarcastic remarks, right?"

Su Jin's expression froze, and then he looked weak: "Yiyi, I want to help you too, but my body is not fully recovered yet and I need to recuperate."

Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes immediately: "Why are you going to work when you need to rest? Working is always more tiring than fighting."

Originally, Liu Yiyi thought that if she continued to stab him like this, Su Jin would not be able to continue talking.

Unexpectedly, Su Jin's face was even thicker than she imagined. Su Jin lowered his head and looked very sad. His voice was even a little choked with sobs: "I also want to rest well, but if I don't go, I won't be able to eat~"

The last note was full of twists and turns, sounding like an opera. Everyone around rubbed their arms when they heard it. It was so sudden that they were completely caught off guard.

Liu Yiyi frowned. She really wanted to ask Su Jin if he was an opera singer before?
