Chapter 2

Qin Xiang has been paying attention to Cui Hong's expression. When she saw the subtle changes in her eyes, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

Before Cui Hong stole her house, Qin Xiang always thought Cui Hong was a timid person.

So during the years when she knew and befriended Cui Hong, it was always Qin Xiang who took the initiative.

When she was young, she saw others scolding Cui Hong as a little vixen, and she would take the initiative to reach out and make friends with Cui Hong. When Cui Hong was teased by the village hooligans after growing up, it was Qin Xiang who picked up a brick and fought with them. So much so that when Cui Hong divorced the nouveau riche later, it was she who brought people to the door to seek justice for Cui Hong and fight for what she deserved. When Cui Hong

was down and out and had no money, it was Qin Xiang who took the initiative to help her, pulled her out of trouble, and gave her a way out.

Cui Hong said that she wanted to repay her and wanted to work as a nanny in Wang's house, and help her take care of the children, otherwise she would have trouble sleeping and eating. Qin Xiang was deeply moved and sent Cui Hong's children to the noble school. Cui Hong said that she was worried that people would say that her child had a nanny, and she was also worried about finding a house and connections to arrange a job for her.

As a result, such a person had stolen her home without her knowing, slept with her man in her pajamas, and even her two children, who she was proud of, only recognized Aunt Cui. She advised her mother to be virtuous and generous. She

was wrong in her last life and let the two dogs see her eyes, but fortunately she let it go. As for the troublesome children, since they like their Aunt Cui, let their Aunt Cui give birth to them.

"This is not good." Cui Hong lowered her eyebrows, her expression was nervous, and her voice was as gentle and tactful as ever.

Seeing Cui Hong's expression, Qin Xiang suddenly had some doubts: When did Cui Hong start to think about Wang Junsheng? Was it really after Wang Junsheng became rich?

If not, did it start before she got married? Why did Cui Hong marry Wang Qingshan next door so quickly? Was it really like Cui Hong said that she couldn't bear to leave her and wanted to be her neighbor and continue to be good sisters?

This idea surprised Qin Xiang, and seeing Cui Hong's expression became more complicated, she said, "Don't refuse. We are the best sisters. It's just a meal. I can afford to treat you. At most, I can give a dollar to my mother-in-law. You have come here with great difficulty. You can't just go back without eating." Although

the two families are neighbors, this is the first time Cui Hong has stepped into this place in the six months since her marriage. If it wasn't because Wang Junsheng was coming back, Qin Xiang wouldn't believe it at all.

Cui Hong's face flushed slightly, she lowered her head and whispered, "This is too troublesome..."

Cui Lianhua's voice came from the door. Cui Hong bit her lip and shook her head with fear, "No, Aunt Cui doesn't like me. She will definitely be unhappy when she knows I'm here. I'll go back first."

After saying that, Cui Hong turned around and was about to leave. Qin Xiang hurriedly held her back, "Why are you in such a hurry? You are married now, and we are neighbors. According to the generation division, Wang Qingshan has to call my mother-in-law the Third Grandma. You and I are friends, and my mother-in-law won't do anything to you. Besides, you should have known the old lady's attitude before you came. Since " Now that you are here, what are you afraid of?"

Hearing her advice, Cui Hong hesitated. While she was hesitating, Cui Lianhua came in. When she saw Cui Hong, she frowned. She wanted to say something but didn't say anything about Wang Qingshan's family. She said politely with a smile on her face, "Cui Hong is here. Why don't you sit inside in such a cold weather? At least pour a bowl of water to warm yourself up. This outfit looks good, but it doesn't seem to keep you warm."

Cui Lianhua was not optimistic when Wang Qingshan wanted to marry Cui Hong. Although they were women of the same surname, Cui Hong didn't look like a law-abiding person. She looked down on such a woman. In the past, she just pretended not to see Cui Lianhua. Now she said nothing, otherwise she wouldn't even look at her.

Cui Hong bit her lip, twirling the collar of her small shirt with her fingers, and looked like she was about to cry. I felt sorry for her aggrieved and pitiful look.

"Let's go inside now." Qin Xiang seemed not to notice Cui Hong's change, and stretched out her hand to pull her arm into the east room. Although it was not much warmer than outside, at least the wind would not blow on her body. Although

Qin Xiang and Wang Junsheng had been married for a year and the two families were neighbors, this was the first time Cui Hong took the initiative to visit. In the past, Qin Xiang would take the opportunity to visit Cui Hong when she returned to her parents' home. Later, Cui Hong got married, and the two lived in the same village, and Qin Xiang would always go to visit her.

Cui Hong looked up and scanned the room. The room was not very big. The kang was placed against the window and the wall. There was a large wardrobe inside. There was a desk and two stools by the window on the other side of the door. There was a big red peony basin on the washbasin stand by the kang at the door, and a big red towel was placed on it. On the wall above the kang, there was even a photo of Wang Junsheng and Qin Xiang when they got married.

The man and woman in the photo had a faint smile on their faces, and their shoulders were leaning against each other. They looked very well matched.

Cui Hong's eyes were a little sore from looking at it, and she quickly retracted her gaze, "Your house is really nice, and it's made of green bricks and tiles."

It was unlike the house she lived in, which was still made of mud bricks, with only some tiles on the roof. Compared with this spacious and bright green brick and tile house, it is far inferior. Moreover, not all the houses in Wang's family are green brick and tile houses, but only the one Qin Xiang lives in. It is conceivable how happy Qin Xiang lives in Wang's family.

Qin Xiang didn't care, "There are still too few things in my house. My mother-in-law said that when Junsheng comes back this time, it's just right for him to take me to the county to buy cloth to make two clothes, and then buy some things for the house."

"Ah?" Cui Hong raised her head, as if she didn't hear clearly.

Qin Xiang did not repeat herself, but blushed again, "Junsheng wrote to me before and said he bought me some vanishing cream. Look at my face, it's a little dry."

She stretched her face over, and Cui Hong's eyes fell on the fair skin. It is indeed a little dry, like a petal lacking some moisture. This lack of moisture can be replenished when Wang Junsheng comes back. Qin Xiang is also beautiful, but she has a hard life. The man she married is a wooden stake. If she doesn't mention it, let alone buying her vanishing cream, he won't even buy her gala oil.

For a moment, Cui Hong felt a little uncomfortable sitting there. She came here because she heard that Wang Junsheng was coming back today, and her husband and mother-in-law didn't come back. But now, hearing how good Wang Junsheng was to Qin Xiang, she couldn't sit still.

Cui Lianhua's voice came from outside, and then Cai Hongyan shouted at the top of her voice, "Third brother's wife, the third brother is back."

Hearing this, Cui Hong stood up, a little at a loss. Qin Xiang hurriedly said, "You sit down, I'll go out to see."

Cui Hong turned around and walked out, "You guys are busy, I'll go back first."

Qin Xiang didn't have time to stop her. Cui Hong, who was near the door, had already pushed the door open and went out, but she didn't expect to bump into Wang Junsheng who was about to enter the house.

Wang Junsheng hugged her subconsciously, only to find that she was warm and soft, not like Qin Xiang. He looked down and met Cui Hong's frightened eyes, and his face turned red.

"What are you doing?"

Cai Hongyan screamed, and frightened Wang Junsheng hurriedly let go of the person in his arms.

Wang Junsheng knew Cui Hong. She was Qin Xiang's neighbor and good friend. Later, she married and lived next door to them. In fact, Cui Hong's man had to call Wang Junsheng uncle.

Wang Junsheng was a little embarrassed by this incident and didn't know where to put his eyes.

"I didn't mean it..."

Before Qin Xiang could say anything, Cui Hong was so frightened that she couldn't stand it anymore and tears fell down.

Cai Hongyan laughed twice, and couldn't bear to see Cui Hong's behavior. "No one said you did it on purpose. Why are you crying? If you don't know, you might think that our third child did something to you."

Then she looked at Qin Xiang sarcastically, "Third sister-in-law, comfort your friend quickly. If she keeps crying, everyone in the village will know. If you don't know, you might think that we deliberately bullied Qingshan's wife."

"I really didn't mean it..." Cui Hong raised her head timidly and looked at Qin Xiang aggrievedly, "Xiangxiang, believe me."

Qin Xiang didn't expect such a change. Looking at the expression of Wang Junsheng, who was 20 years younger, there was nothing wrong.

Qin Xiang looked at Wang Junsheng with a reproachful look and said, "Go to the main room to wash your hands and warm them up, and I will comfort Cui Hong."

After being reminded and being pulled by Cui Lianhua, Wang Junsheng said sorry and turned to the main room.

After the door was closed, Qin Xiang saw Cui Hong still crying and couldn't help but said, "Are you going to make this matter known by crying?"

Cui Hong stopped crying suddenly and said, "I really didn't mean it."

Although she stopped crying, her pitiful look was really adorable.

"I know." Qin Xiang said helplessly, "I don't trust anyone but you. With our relationship, I wouldn't doubt it even if he accidentally kissed you just now."

Cui Hong was stunned. Just when she wanted to continue explaining, she heard Qin Xiang say again, "Don't cry, otherwise your man will think that we, your uncle and aunt, bullied you."

Cui Hong wiped her tears and showed an uneasy smile, "As long as you trust me, I'm not afraid of anything."

Qin Xiang couldn't help sighing when he looked at this face. This beauty looks beautiful when she cries. If she cries, she can't cry so tenderly.

So Qin Xiang coaxed her for a long time, and Cui Hong finally felt relieved. She stood up and said, "I am embarrassed to sit here after something like this happened. I will go back first and come to see you another day."

Qin Xiang sent her out, and when she looked at the main hall, she saw Wang Junsheng standing at the door and talking to his father Wang Dazhu. It seemed that they said something. Wang Junsheng was very happy and was smiling there. He was gentle and looked really handsome.

Qin Xiang didn't say anything. Cui Hong glanced over there quietly and saw Wang Junsheng's smiling face, and his pretty face was red all the way to his ears.

Qin Xiang actually saw it, but she pretended not to see it and only said to Cui Hong, "There is nothing to do in June. We have to plant in the spring. You have nothing to do at home. Come to my place often. Don't worry about what others think. I don't care about those."

Cui Hong should have refused at this time, but for some reason, Cui Hong didn't say the words of refusal.

When leaving Wang's house, there were still some people watching the excitement on the street. Several aunts and ladies asked Cui Hong, "I just heard Cai Hongyan shout, what did she shout?"

It was just a casual question to join in the fun, but Cui Hong blushed and stood there coquettishly, a little at a loss, "I don't know. I didn't hear it clearly."

After saying that, she twisted her waist and left in a hurry.

Aunt Zhang from the west of Wang's family stared at Cui Hong's waist and said, "No wonder Wang Qingshan was so determined to marry her. With such a face and such a waist, any man would be unable to control himself. How wild she would be on the kang."

The other aunts and aunties said something and laughed together.

Cui Hong walked faster after hearing this. Inexplicably, the scene of Wang Junsheng holding her just now appeared in front of her, and her face became even redder.
