Chapter 5 Thinking about the married man, she was wronged
Su Lingyu narrowed her beautiful eyes and raised her red lips into a dangerous smile.
She casually and gracefully placed the pearl bag in her hand on the table. The handle of the bag hit the table with a crisp "dong" sound, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting people's heart.
Are you going to get angry?
Just as Su Lingyu was about to speak, Huo Lang, with a look of nervousness on his face, jumped up from his chair as if his butt was on fire, and stammered loudly, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, sister-in-law!"
"What for?" Su Lingyu asked back unhappily.
"If you want to eat jajangmyeon, just ask me to buy it. How can I let someone as noble as you go there in person?" Huo Lang smiled, sincere and flattering.
The Huo family values integrity the most, but seeing how he looked like a lackey, no one tried to stop him.
Not even Huo Jianguo and Chen Yuxiang.
Su Lingyu was not grateful: "How long will it take to go back and forth? Fried noodles should be made and eaten right after they are made. If you wait for them to come back, the taste will be ruined. I don't want it. I want to eat in the store."
"I'm fast. I'll use my 100-meter sprint strength to buy you something. Please give me a chance!" Huo Lang said, "I'm also quite embarrassed about what happened just now."
"Would you be embarrassed?" Su Lingyu wondered, "You were not trying to vent your brother's anger by adding ingredients to the noodles?"
"How could this be?!" Huo Lang almost swore to the heavens.
But Su Lingyu ignored him.
Picking up the pearl bag again, she walked out gracefully.
Not only did she want to eat the freshly-cooked noodles, she also wanted to go out for some fresh air and see what the capital city looked like decades ago.
"Sister-in-law!" Huo Lang caught up immediately.
The rest of the Huo family looked at each other in silence.
After a while, Huo Xiang suddenly spoke with concern: "What if others hear what my sister-in-law is thinking?"
Chen Yuxiang also had a headache: "She is a person, not an object. We can't tie her up all day and not let her go out. If we really do that, she will get suspicious."
The Huo family is an honest family and would not do anything illegal. Su Lingyu seems to have a way to cure Huo Yan's leg, so they don't want to make her angry.
"Maybe we are the only ones who can hear her thoughts, but others can't." Huo Xiang became optimistic again.
"It's not impossible, but we need to find reliable people to verify it several times before we can be sure. Otherwise, we will always feel uneasy." Chen Yuxiang said.
"Let's wait for Huo Lang to come back and see what he says first," Huo Jianguo said.
Huo Yan said nothing, but his eyes seemed thoughtful.
Half an hour later.
Su Lingyu returned home contentedly, but saw the Huo family still sitting at the dinner table, as if they were performing some solemn ceremony. A hint of doubt flashed across her eyes.
Click on the progress bar: [Daily Tasks: Vicious Progress 59/100].
It seems that the outburst just now was very effective. She went upstairs happily humming a light tune.
She's going to tidy up her closet.
She has a slight obsession with cleanliness. She uses her own body to travel through books, and doesn't want to wear clothes that have been worn by others... She couldn't do it yesterday, but she was unwilling to give in today.
She didn't want any new clothes except the ones she liked, and would go out to buy new ones later.
downstairs.
Many eyes were focused on Huo Lang. He knew why. He scratched his head and said, "I didn't hear my sister-in-law's thoughts outside. I don't know if she didn't think about it or she couldn't hear it outside."
"This may just be a lucky break. There will be many more such cases in the future. We cannot guard against them and we cannot take it lightly."
"We need to find a reliable person to verify it several times."
"Will she notice?"
“…”
At this moment, a sweet voice sounded: "What are you talking about? Why do I feel like you are saying bad things about me?"
Huo family: "......!!!"
Several people turned their heads and saw the pretty and slim Su Lingyu walking down the stairs.
She was wearing a cotton and linen dress that looked like sky blue after rain. Her skin was white, and she looked like a delphinium flower blooming in the misty rain. Her slender white hands rested on the dark brown handrail of the stairs, as flawless as white jade, and every detail was exquisite.
It is not a gentleman's behavior to talk behind someone's back, and now they have been caught red-handed by the real person. Every member of the Huo family looked embarrassed.
Huo Yan and Huo Jianguo were fine, but Huo Xiang and Huo Lang were especially poor. Both of them had not yet fully cultivated themselves and looked very panicked.
"Where are you going?" Huo Yan broke the silence.
"Are you really saying bad things about me?" Su Lingyu asked instead of answering and snorted.
Huo Yan: “…Don’t think too much.”
"Forget it. I'm a generous man and I won't argue with you. Tell me, we've been married for a month or two. Where's your allowance? Why don't you give me a penny? Do you want to keep it for your lover?"
"...No." He just didn't think of it before. Huo Yan didn't want to explain further and asked directly, "What do you want the money for?"
"Of course I bought clothes." Su Lingyu raised her chin, "There are only a few coarse cloth clothes in my closet that can be worn by people. I'm going to throw them away."
"All lost? That's such a waste, right?" Huo Xiang felt heartbroken when he heard it.
Nowadays, whose family doesn't keep patching up for three years and then new for three years? Not to mention the young people, even the clothes Huo Jianguo wore at home had several patches on them.
She was extremely envious of the clothes in her sister-in-law's closet, but she didn't expect that she was not satisfied and said she wanted to throw them away.
Su Lingyu raised her eyebrows and said, "I use my husband's allowance to buy clothes. Do you have any opinion?"
[Except for the two silk nightgowns, all other clothes rubbed my skin and made it red, painful and itchy. I have never suffered this kind of injustice. Is it because of the bad times, they are ignorant, or are they deliberately abusing me? ]
The system's cute voice sounded: [They must be abusing you on purpose. After all, you are a vicious female supporting role, not a good person. They must hate you.]
Huo Xiang: "..."
No, that’s not it, don’t talk nonsense!
But when her eyes fell on Su Lingyu's fair and smooth skin, she suddenly had a shameful suspicion: Could it be that the Huo family was really abusing her eldest sister-in-law?
"...I have no objection." Huo Xiang sat down with a shameful look on his face.
Su Lingyu snorted softly and looked at Huo Yan with her beautiful eyes.
Huo Yan said, "I used my previous allowance to support the families of my fallen comrades. From now on, I will only take half of the monthly allowance, and give the rest to you."
He thought Su Lingyu would make a big fuss, and even ask him to get the money back. Others looked at Su Lingyu with worry, but unexpectedly, she just sighed in frustration.
[Huo Yan is talking about the family members of his comrades who died in the battle where he had the accident? 】
System: [Yes. That battle was extremely difficult and they risked their lives. Except for Huo Yan, who survived, everyone else died in the battle. Some even died in the battle to save him. He felt full of guilt for his sacrificed comrades, and even felt that he did not deserve to live.]
Su Lingyu said: [The soldiers of our country are truly great. Without them, we would not be able to enjoy prosperity and peace.]
[After their sacrifice, the family lost a pillar. Some families had no one to take care of their parents, and some families had no one to raise their children. It was indeed very difficult.]
The system agrees: [Yes. ]
[But I really don’t feel well!] Su Lingyu felt wronged and angry, [I don’t want to do this mission anymore, or I’ll just jump into the sea now, the sooner I die, the sooner I’ll be reborn.]
The system was shocked: [Host, stop! ]
Huo Yan suddenly spoke in a deep voice: "If the clothes are really uncomfortable to wear, I will go to the army to apply and collect the allowance for next month in advance. Will you come with me?"
In fact, the family is not short of money, but the troops are all reliable people. They can just verify who can hear Su Lingyu's thoughts and who cannot hear them, and get as much information as possible.
As soon as he said this, the other members of the Huo family understood immediately and nodded in agreement.
Su Lingyu's expression also softened.
Go to the army? Maybe you can run into Zhou Wanrou!
She blinked her beautiful eyes, lifted the hair hanging by her ears, and nodded modestly: "Okay, let's go to the troops first."
[I want to go and see who Zhou Wanrou is.]
[She secretly yearns for a married man, and she feels wronged, thinking that the original owner has ruined her reputation. How shameless! Look, I'll give her a little shock! ]
Huo Yan: “…”
He had never doubted himself, but under the implicit sympathetic gazes of his family, he suddenly felt that he might have done something wrong.
He and Zhou Wanrou really had no contact with each other and they had never even spoken a few words to each other.
