Chapter 224
Seeing Qin Xiang, Liu Fanglin and his wife were stunned, and Liu Fanglin subconsciously went to see He Chenghua.
He Chenghua stared at Qin Xiang with a pair of eyes, which made Liu Fanglin embarrassed. "Let's go, go back."
She said and pulled He Chenghua away.
He Chenghua was silent, looking at Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing, and turned around and left after a while.
Inside the door, Zhao Yuping saw their intersection, but pretended not to see it, and said gently, "Come to bring clothes to Xueer?"
Qin Xiang smiled and nodded, "Yes, I have made one set. If you have no problem trying them on, I will make another two sets."
"Please come in."
The Cui family lived in a two-story small building, and there was a small courtyard the size of a palm when entering the door.
Seeing Mr. Meng next to her, Zhao Yuping also greeted him politely.
She held Qin Xiang's hand affectionately and said, "Boss Qin, thank you."
Qin Xiang hurriedly said, "Aunt Zhao, you can call me Xiao Qin, Xue'er and I are friends."
"Okay, Xiao Qin." Zhao Yuping said gently, "Xue'er said it when she came back, she is very grateful for you to tell her those things and give her a chance to relieve her mood."
Qin Xiang shook her head, "Aunt Zhao, the commercial shooting is not a chance for me to give her a chance to relieve her mood, but it is entirely for my clothing store."
Zhao Yuping was stunned, then smiled, "Okay, come in, it's cold outside."
The Cui family is a big family, everyone is here today, I guess the He family came here to talk about the marriage thoroughly.
At this time, seeing Zhao Yuping bring two strangers in, they were a little confused.
Zhao Yuping said, "They are here to bring clothes to Xue'er."
While she was talking, Cui Xue'er came over and said, "Come on, let's go to my room." But
when she saw Meng Huaiqing, Cui Xue'er was a little embarrassed.
However, to Qin Xiang's surprise, Meng Huaiqing seemed to know the Cui family. A man in his forties stood up and said in surprise, "Mr. Meng, it's really you. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Qin Xiang looked over and saw Meng Huaiqing had already gone over to shake hands with the other party, "Hello, Director Cui, I'm here with my partner to deliver clothes."
After this explanation, everyone suddenly realized it. Director Cui said happily, "So this is your partner. It's really a good match. I didn't expect that he also knows our Xue'er."
Seeing this, Qin Xiang said something to Meng Huaiqing and followed Cui Xue'er to her room to change clothes.
Cui Xueer's room is on the second floor. When she went upstairs, she could still hear the conversation downstairs.
Cui Xueer was as if she had seen a ghost. "My second uncle is famous for being serious. I didn't expect that he would have such an expression in front of Mr. Meng. It's really a ghost."
Qin Xiang laughed.
The two went upstairs and entered the house. Qin Xiang looked at Cui Xueer's room. It was decorated very simply. Cui Xueer couldn't wait and quickly took off her clothes to try them on. After putting them on, she turned around and asked, "Does it look good?" "
It looks good." Qin Xiang didn't make a one-piece dress, but a separate one. The upper body was buttoned and extended to the neck. There was a circle of rabbit fur on the edge of the collar, which was warm and gentle. Below was a skirt that was as long as the calf, and the hem was also rolled with rabbit fur.
Qin Xiang instructed her to put on a pair of black tights inside, and she looked even prettier in front of the mirror.
"Sit down and I'll comb your hair." Pressing Cui Xueer to sit down, Qin Xiang simply tied Cui Xueer's hair behind her head, looked around her desk but couldn't find anything suitable, and suddenly saw a wooden hairpin in the pen holder, so she took it and put it in.
The woman in the mirror was gentle and playful, and she was very beautiful.
Cui Xueer said, "It looks good."
Qin Xiang smiled, "You will like the other two sets too, but I made one of them into a spring style, and two winter styles are enough, a spring long-sleeved cheongsam. After wearing it, you will definitely be the most beautiful kid."
Just thinking about it made her feel beautiful, and Cui Xueer's original unhappiness disappeared.
She pulled Qin Xiang to sit down and asked, "Do you know what we are doing today?"
Qin Xiang said, "To discuss breaking off the engagement?"
"No, to discuss the engagement." Cui Xueer had a hint of sarcasm on her lips. Seeing Qin Xiang's surprise, she explained, "My dad and He Chenghua's parents both hope to promote this marriage, so they thought that the two families would sit together to discuss it. But they seemed to underestimate He Chenghua's determination, and they almost slammed the table in my house just now. But it's good that way, my dad sees it clearly, so no matter how active the He family is, he won't agree."
Qin Xiang understood, just like the Guan family wanted to rely on the He family, the He family also wanted to rely on the Cui family.
Unfortunately, no matter how actively the He family pushed, it was useless, and the Cui family looked down on the He family.
It is possible that the Cui family held a grudge against He Chenghua because of his attitude.
No elder in any family would be happy if their child, whom they had carefully nurtured, was rejected by others.
Qin Xiang touched her soft hand and said, "Since it has become a foregone conclusion, think more open-mindedly. Men are like clothes. If this one is not good, you can change it for a new one. There will always be more beautiful clothes waiting for you in the future."
Her analogy made Cui Xueer laugh and cry. Cui Xueer said seriously, "You are right. I have thought about it these days. Maybe I didn't love him before. Maybe I stayed in a stable environment for too long, and I especially yearned for freedom and wanted to rebel. So when I met the rebellious He Chenghua, I thought I met someone who could lead me to a different life."
Cui Xueer sighed and said, "Now I think it over. Although I feel a little uncomfortable, I am just unhappy that I was rejected by others. I don't feel that bad. Of course, thank you very much for enlightening me that day."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Are we friends now?"
"Of course."
"If we are friends, then you shouldn't say such things." Qin Xiang straightened her clothes and said, "When I was eight years old, my grandmother took me to the county town. At that time, I was very jealous of the children in the city. They could wear new clothes and new shoes, and they could also wear beautiful hair flowers, but I could only wear clothes that my brothers and sisters had replaced. When they came to me, they were already patched up. Later, I went to school in the county town, but I was still jealous of the children in the city. I felt that they were born with advantages over us. Whether it was studying or not, we had to study very hard and run very hard to catch up with them."
She paused and continued, "But later I found that all these entanglements of mine were useless. I can only be more confident if I work hard to make myself better. We cannot choose our birth, but birth also gives us different perspectives. What your parents give back to you will be your future wealth. The principles they teach you are also the hope that their children and grandchildren can live a better life. If they are dying because of a man, they will probably be very disappointed."
Cui Xueer nodded, "Yes, my grandma just said, he is just a handsome boy, there are so many in the city, just draw another one for me when you have nothing to do."
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "That's right, we are so beautiful, are we still missing a man?"
It was getting late, Qin Xiang stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
When they came downstairs, the people downstairs were talking happily. A little old lady was sitting opposite Meng Huaiqing, looking at Meng Huaiqing with satisfaction.
Cui Xueer was a little embarrassed and coughed.
The person who was talking stopped, and Meng Huaiqing stood up and said, "It's getting late, we won't disturb the elders to rest."
"No, no, come to my house when you have time." Director Cui smiled and was very polite.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing went out together, and the Cui family closed the door, and the atmosphere was a little silent.
After a while, Mrs. Cui sighed, "How can such a good young man already have a partner?"
When she said this, no one didn't understand what she meant.
The old lady looked at her second son with a complaint, "You have such a good young man, why didn't you introduce him to our Xue'er earlier."
Director Cui said embarrassedly, "Is he really that easy to talk to? Why should I wait for Xue'er? I didn't dare to introduce him because I knew that he came to the capital just for a woman."
"There's more?" Old lady Cui was a little confused, "It's the girl who just sent clothes, why did I hear that she is divorced? She is really amazing. Even after being divorced, He Chenghua still misses her, and people like Mr. Meng like her. It seems that she is a resourceful person."
After hearing what the old lady said, Cui Xue'er was immediately unhappy, but before she could say anything, she was stopped by Zhao Yuping. Zhao Yuping said, "Mom, it's not good to say that. It's a new society now. If If women still look down on other women because of this kind of thing, isn't that too tragic? I've heard about her story. She got divorced because her ex-husband had an affair with his friend. Logically speaking, she is still a victim, and it's not good for us to say that about her. Moreover, she is a very hard-working girl. After the divorce, she went to college and started her own business. Everyone who saw her would praise her. "
The old lady sneered, "You can wait for me to say a hundred words."
But she didn't say any more.
Zhao Yuping said to Director Cui, "Second brother, friendship is friendship, and work is work. We can't mix the two."
Director Cui nodded, "I understand."
The marriage with the He family was impossible. The family sat down, and the old lady turned on the TV. As a result, the news just ended and the commercials started.
When the old lady saw Cui Xueer on TV, she stood up immediately, "What's going on?"
Zhao Yuping asked Cui Xueer to go back to her room and said to the old lady, "She has been in a bad mood recently and said she wanted to give it a try, so I let her go. It's also a favor to Miss Qin."
"It's outrageous." The old lady stood up and walked away angrily.
Director Cui agreed very much. He put away his smile and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, although our Cui family is already very good, it can be better. Mr. Meng is a patriotic businessman who has made many contributions to our country. Of course, we can help her lover if we can."
Zhao Yuping smiled, "Of course."
Most people in their circle in the capital knew about Meng Huaiqing's affairs, especially those who worked in government departments, so they knew more. Cui Xueer's second uncle works in the Development and Reform Commission and often deals with Meng Huaiqing. He has a good understanding of Meng Huaiqing's character.
Director Cui looked at the second floor and said, "Xueer has done a good job. She is a good role model for her sister. This is how the children of our Cui family should be. They should be neither humble nor arrogant. They should be a man. There will be better ones. And I think He Chenghua is really not a good person. I heard that he has retired from the army. He will not be able to do anything in the future."
In this generation of the Cui family, Cui Xueer's father did not develop as well as the second uncle, so the second uncle Cui has an absolute say in the Cui family. Cui Xueer's parents will also listen to his words.
"Second brother is right." Zhao Yuping smiled, "But do you know why she suddenly figured it out after such a big change? It was Qin Xiang, Miss Qin talked to her and she figured it out. She is a very remarkable girl."
At this moment, the remarkable girl they were talking about left the courtyard with Meng Huaiqing. Before they took two steps out, they saw someone leaning against the wall at the door smoking.
The flickering fireworks were particularly conspicuous in the dark.
