Chapter 14



What does he know? He knows nothing!

He wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing that she closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep again, he frowned and suppressed the questions in his mouth.

I probably won’t get an answer tonight, so I’ll ask again tomorrow!

No words were spoken that night.

The next day Su Maner got up early.

After a sound sleep, she felt full of strength and planned to make a hearty breakfast for everyone in the morning.

When she went to the kitchen to light the fire, she discovered that she smelled like iris.

She was shocked.

How is this possible? Her current body is not a flower fairy. How can it smell like... a fallen ivy flower?

This is really strange.

Now that she suddenly has this smell on her body, how should she explain it to Chi Yunchen and the others?

Could it be said that she wore perfume?

But in this world, no perfume can compare to the scent of ivy.

Especially in the days when perfume was not yet developed.

After thinking for a while, she suddenly sighed and raised her hand to rub her eyebrows.

Forget it, I won’t think about it.

When the enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals; when the water comes, we will cover it with earth. Let’s talk about it when Chi Yunchen really asks her.

She was busy in the kitchen for more than an hour, and just as she finished preparing breakfast, Chi Yunchen, Grandma Chi, her eldest sister-in-law, and Jiayue got up.

Xiao Jiayue sniffed the aroma of food in the air, sniffed hard and said, "It smells so good, Third Auntie must have made something delicious again."

Su Man'er raised her head to look at him and smiled: "Yes, I made some delicious food this morning."

"Oh, that's great. There are delicious foods again. I'm so happy." Little Jiayue was so happy that she clapped her hands and cheered.

Chi Yunchen walked to Su Maner's side.

He raised his eyes to look at Su Man'er and said with a serious face: "You don't have to get up so early in the morning from now on! It's winter and you can sleep a little longer!"

Seeing her get up so early, with her hands frozen red, he felt a strange feeling flowing in his heart.

As he spoke, he wanted to reach out and hold her hand, but he paused and finally gave up the idea.

Grandma Chi and Xiao Wanxiu beside them all smiled with satisfaction. Yunchen's daughter-in-law was a virtuous one. Only the Chi family had such a beautiful and virtuous daughter-in-law.

Hong Yashan smelled the fragrance in the air, she moved her nose slightly, and a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.

In addition to the aroma of rice, there was another scent in the air. It seemed to be... the scent of a flower.

She was just about to ask Grandma Chi if they could smell it, when an uninvited guest walked in from outside.

These uninvited guests were none other than Su Maner's aunt and her family.

Gu Chunmei stepped into the courtyard. She looked at the Chi family standing in the courtyard. She raised the corners of her lips and smiled. A sharp voice came out of her mouth: "You are all awake. It's good that you are all awake. I was really worried that you didn't get up just now."

As she spoke, she smelled the fragrance coming from the stove. She frowned and glanced towards the stove.

I don’t know what the Chi family prepared for breakfast, why does it smell so good?

Su Maner has a very bad impression of this aunt.

Yesterday at the thatched cottage, this aunt did a lot to add insult to injury.

She knew that her aunt was jealous of her family, jealous that they lived well and could live in the town.

But she didn't expect that her aunt was so crazy that she would help outsiders and splash dirty water on her.

An aunt like this is not a relative at all. She is more terrifying than an enemy!

"Something's up?!"

Su Maner asked in a cold voice and with a sullen expression.

Qiao Xinxin, who was standing behind Gu Chunmei, had a dark face. She looked at Su Man'er with hatred in her eyes.

Yesterday, I originally wanted to pair Su Maner and Zhao Dashun together in order to ruin Su Maner's reputation.

But somehow, she and Zhao Dashun ended up lying together.

After what happened yesterday, she now had to admit to the outside world that she and Zhao Dashun were dating, and she had to marry Zhao Dashun!

Because if she didn't tell the outside world that she and Zhao Dashun were dating, then she and Zhao Dashun were having an affair. Having an affair is much more serious than a normal relationship!

Now she had no one else to marry except Zhao Dashun, because no one else would dare to marry a woman like her who had a bad reputation!

But she didn't want to marry Zhao Dashun. How could a man like Zhao Dashun be worthy of her? He was not even worthy of carrying her shoes!

And all of this was caused by this woman Su Maner. Why didn't Su Maner just "cheate" with Zhao Dashun properly? Why did she resist and make trouble? All of this was caused by Su Maner. It was Su Maner who harmed her!

She gritted her teeth, suppressed the resentment in her heart, and forced a smile on her lips as she said, "Cousin, we came here today to borrow something from you."

"Borrow something?" Su Maner raised her eyebrows: "I don't have anything to lend you, you can go back."

"Hey, kid, what's wrong with you? You didn't even ask us what we want to borrow, but you said there is nothing to lend. You don't want to lend it, why are you so stingy?!" Gu Chunmei's face immediately darkened, and she scolded Su Maner with great dissatisfaction.

Su Maner snorted. She was about to respond when Chi Yunchen said, "We don't want to borrow anything you want! Please leave now. We need to have breakfast!"

Although Chi Yunchen's voice was cold, his attitude was not excessive.

But Gu Chunmei jumped up at these words.

Gu Chunmei's face turned extremely ugly, and she stared at Chi Yunchen with extremely sinister eyes and said, "Did we ask you to borrow something? What are you saying here? I'm asking my niece Su Maner, not you! Don't meddle in my business!"

Gu Chunmei looked down on Chi Yunchen, very much. She didn't even want to look at a poor guy like Chi Yunchen.

Gu Chunmei's words made everyone in the Chi family look gloomy.

Chi Yunchen's face turned cold, he opened his thin lips slightly and spoke word by word: "This is my home! You come to my house to show off, who gave you the face?!"

"You..." Gu Chunmei gritted her teeth and tried to refute, but Su Maner curled her lips slightly and sneered, "With this attitude, you still want to borrow things from me? Get out of here right now. I don't want to deal with you!"

She said "get out!" The word "get out" was really without any mercy.

Because she felt that there was no need to show mercy to people like Gu Chunmei.

No one shows mercy to her husband, so why should she show mercy to them?

"Su Maner, you..." Gu Chunmei turned her head and glared at Su Maner. She opened her mouth to scold her, but her husband Qiao Zhengguo suddenly pulled her back.

Qiao Zhengguo pulled her back a step, glared at her and said, "Alright, stop embarrassing me! You're here to borrow something, not to quarrel!"

Gu Chunmei: "..." Although she is arrogant and domineering outside, she is afraid of her husband at home. After all, all the financial resources of the family depend on her husband. To her, her husband is her heaven and her earth!

She glanced at her husband. Although she felt a little unwilling that she didn't scold Su Maner, she still listened to her husband and stood quietly at the back.

"Man'er," Qiao Zhengguo took two steps forward, with a smile on his face, staring straight at Su Man'er and said, "Don't bother with your aunt. Your aunt is just like that. She is always unreasonable."

Su Maner looked at Qiao Zhengguo.

This uncle seems to be quite generous.

But……

But she saw calculation and viciousness in her uncle's eyes.

This uncle is not as simple as he seems.

Seeing that Su Man'er didn't answer, Qiao Zhengguo continued, "Man'er, you and Xinxin are cousins. Sisters should help each other. Xinxin is getting married in a few days. She doesn't have a wedding dress, and we thought you just got married, and your wedding dress is very beautiful. So, we want to borrow your wedding dress."

Su Maner remembered that the original owner wore a wedding dress when she got married.

The wedding dress was specially made by the original owner's second uncle. It was very beautiful and luxurious. If it were sold, it would cost at least more than 100 yuan. After all, the material and craftsmanship were both top-notch.

She didn't expect that the Qiao family actually wanted to take her wedding dress.

After lending out the wedding dress, it is unlikely that it will be returned, right? After all, Gu Chunmei and Qiao Xinxin are so shameless. If the wedding dress falls into their hands, they will definitely take it for themselves.

An indifferent smile appeared on her face. Su Man'er looked at Qiao Zhengguo and said slowly: "Uncle, I'm sorry, I don't plan to borrow that wedding dress. After all, this is what I wore when I got married. It has special meaning to me, and I don't want to share it with others."

"Cousin." Qiao Xinxin's eyes were sad, and there were actually sparkling tears in her eyes.

She quickly stepped forward and tried to pull Su Maner's wrist, but Su Maner dodged her.

Su Maner's evasive action made her eyes darken.

She gritted her teeth, and extreme hatred flashed in her eyes.

But she soon calmed down.

She bit her lip, looked at Su Maner weakly and said, "I know that wedding dress means something different to you. But I really don't have any wedding dress to wear. You know the conditions of my family. We just renovated the house and all the money in the family has been spent. If I still have some money, I will definitely spend my own money to customize the wedding dress. But now, now..."

As he spoke, tears began to flow, and he looked extremely sad and upset.

Su Maner didn't buy it. Qiao Xinxin's tricks might work on men, but they were completely useless to her.

She glanced at Qiao Xinxin and said coldly, "Then just don't wear wedding clothes! There are many people in the village who get married without wearing wedding clothes. It's okay if you don't wear one."

Qiao Xinxin: “…”

She frowned and was choked by Su Maner's words.

Gu Chunmei jumped up again, pointed at Su Maner's nose and cursed: "Su Maner, you are stingy, you are a miser! Will you die if you lend your wedding dress to my Xinxin? Will you die? What's the difference in meaning that can't be shared! You just don't want to lend it, you just don't regard us as family!"

As she spoke, she lowered her head and wiped her tears like Qiao Xinxin: "My eldest sister is such a generous person, how could she give birth to a daughter like you. If my eldest sister was here, she would definitely borrow it. She would definitely not be as stingy as you. Poor Xinxin, she can't even wear a wedding dress for her wedding, it's really pitiful."
