Qingxi was about to go to her future in-laws' house in the provincial capital, but she was inevitably nervous, but she was repeatedly reminded of her etiquette and behavior for several consecutive days, and all her nervousness turned into irritability.

In the bright and elegant boudoir, Qingxi sat down beside the bed with his head down, unconsciously turning the white jade bracelet on his wrist. Grandmother, Mrs. Xu, stood with her back to her, personally supervising Cui Cui to pack up her granddaughter's luggage: "Put these two cheongsams on them, be careful not to wrinkle them... Wait, wrap the white leather shoes in satin first..."

Cuicui pursed her lips and did whatever the old lady told her.

After confirming that his luggage was correct, Mrs. Xu turned around and caught a glimpse of the old bracelet on her granddaughter's wrist. Mrs. Xu frowned and said reluctantly: "Let's go and pick a few jewelry from my grandmother." Although the Xu family is not as good as the Gu family, she is also a top-ranked family in Xiucheng. She cannot make Gu Zhai feel that her future eldest young lady is born in a shabby future.

No one can disobey the old lady's meaning. Qingxi didn't want to waste her words, so she followed her obediently.

Mrs. Xu was very proud of her face. She picked a box of precious jewelry from her collection for Qingxi, and said that the jewelry was only temporarily worn for Qingxi for a few days, and she had to hand it over to Mrs. Xu when she came back from the Gu family. She was doing things stingy, but Mrs. Xu thought of a nice statement, saying that she would first keep the granddaughters for her granddaughters, and then as a dowry for the three sisters in the future.

"Thank you grandma." Qingxi said softly.

Old Mrs. Xu held her granddaughter's white and tender little hand, squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the girl in front of her. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became: "True Shui Ling, go to bed early tonight, and she will be fully energetic. Tomorrow, he will definitely not be able to remove his eyes."

Qingxi lowered her head, and Gu Mingyan's arrogant face seemed to flash in front of her. The fiancé has been in contact for more than ten years since she was engaged, but she doesn't know Gu Mingyan's character at all. As for Gu Mingyan, she met her only a handful of times when she was a child, and she went abroad for three years. Maybe she has forgotten her appearance, right?

Qingxi respected his father, and the only dissatisfaction with him was that this marriage was too hasty back then.

The first time Qingxi went out far away, Xu Wangshan and Lin Wanyin were not relieved. During dinner, Xu Wangshan told his daughter a lot. After dinner, Lin Wanyin took her daughter to the boudoir of the backyard and asked Cuicui to guard the room outside. She looked at her daughter's soft and green face, and she wanted to speak a few times but stopped.

"Mom, are you in trouble?" Qingxi asked curiously.

Lin Wanyin lowered her eyes and agreed. After a while, she sighed and hugged her daughter and said, "Although the Gu family took the initiative to mention this marriage, we are the ones who are complacent no matter how you calculate it. Your grandmother is happy. Old Mrs. Gu and eldest wife may not be satisfied... Mom is not sure whether they will like you, but if you are bullied, you can tolerate it and cannot bear it, then go to Uncle Gu, who will protect you."

Uncle Gu...

Qingxi was unsure and whispered: "Uncle Gu hasn't been to our house once."

How can my mother be sure that the elder who hasn’t seen for more than ten years be liked by her?

When Lin Wanyin heard this, a touch of complexity appeared in her beautiful eyes.

"When Qingxi was five years old, Uncle Gu liked you very much. He decided to be your daughter-in-law when he first met. Now that you are more sensible, he will only like you more, don't worry." Lin Wanyin could only coax her daughter like this.

It was dawn, Qingxi said goodbye to his mother and sister, and then followed his grandmother to the station.

The train departs from Shencheng, passes through Xiucheng and other small stations in the middle, and finally arrives in Hangzhou.

In front of the platform, Xu Wangshan put two cowhide boxes on the ground and looked at his delicate daughter like a flower bud. Xu Wangshan always felt uneasy and once again told his mother: "Mom, Qingxi is still young, please take care of it."

Old Mrs. Xu glared at him: "You still need to say it? Qingxi is my most precious granddaughter. With me here, no one can bully her at all."

Xu Wangshan looked at his daughter.

Qingxi smiled softly at her father. Just as she was about to say something, the roar of a train suddenly came from behind her. She turned her head and looked back. A train was spraying white air and getting closer and closer, and the ground under her feet was shaking.

The train stopped, get off first and then get on.

Old Mrs. Xu stretched her neck and asked her granddaughter to see the lively bustling in the third-class carriage. The passengers who got off the bus were crowded, and those who wanted to get on the bus were even more crowded, and they were flocking to each other. In the words of Old Mrs. Xu, it seemed that they were all rushing to be reincarnated. Qingxi looked at her grandmother's faces high above and mocked others, but remembered that the whole family used to take a train outing, and grandmother was reluctant to spend money and always asked her father to buy the second-class carriage. As a result, this time she went to the Gu family, grandmother was willing to show off her.

Someone helped to carry his luggage, but Xu Wangshan stopped getting on the bus and looked at his baby daughter reluctantly.

"Dad, what gift do you want?"

Old Mrs. Xu had already gone up. Qingxi stood in front of her father, raised her face and asked mysteriously.

Xu Wangshan was confused: "My gift?"

Qingxi smiled naturally: "Yes, my father is sure to win the game, so of course I have to prepare a gift."

Xu Wangshan understood that his daughter was using her way to cheer him on drums.

"It's fun there. If you are having a happy life, then dad will be happy." Xu Wangshan touched his daughter's head with a kind look: "Get on the bus, wait for you to come back, dad will make you a big meal."

Qingxi nodded, finally hugged her father, and then got into the car.

The first-class carriage is much more luxurious than the second-class ones that Qingxi has ever sat in. There is a red carpet under its feet and the table is covered with silver-white velvet cloth, which is clean and elegant. Old Mrs. Xu stood in a relatively middle position and waved to her granddaughter. Qingxi tried to ignore the sights from the seats on both sides and came to her grandmother with a shallow step.

"Sit inside." Old Mrs. Xu whispered. The position next to the window was more comfortable, but older people like Mrs. Xu were conservative in their bones and did not want their granddaughter to sit outside, so that the male passengers around him could look at him freely.

After sitting down, Old Mrs. Xu casually observed her left and right.

There were two women sitting opposite him. The one outside looked like a maid. The wife who closed her eyes and rested in her heart was about 30 years old. She had white face, red lips, curly short hair with her ears, and a fashionable dress. Judging from the decades of experience of Mrs. Xu, this is a bit like a concubine raised by a master.

Old Mrs. Xu looked at the table parallel to the left and saw two rows of four seats sitting face to face. Two young men in suits were sitting diagonally opposite. The man in black was wearing sunglasses and facing out the window, revealing half of the handsome face with cold and hard lines, with long legs overlapping below, looking lazy and casual.

"Good old lady, where are you going?"

As he was looking at it, the man in white opposite the man in black suddenly spoke. Old Mrs. Xu tilted her head and hit a young face with a bright smile. The young man looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old, and he smiled very sincerely, but his swaying peach blossom eyes were staring straight at his granddaughter!

When he went out to meet the little hooligan, the old lady Xu's face suddenly became unfavorable. She sat up straight with a tense face and blocked her granddaughter tightly. Qingxi felt it and cooperated to lift her left hand to hold her chin and turn out the window.

Both the old and the young were stingy. Lu Duo touched the bridge of his nose in disappointment, leaned forward on his upper body, and whispered to remind his uncle who had been keeping his movements since he got on the car: "Look, a new beauty has come."

Gu Huaixiu glanced at his nephew indifferently and his eyes turned back to the window.

The train set off, with a harsh whistle and a clanging vibration.

It was nearly two hours' drive that Qingxi could not keep holding her chin. When she noticed that the man in white stopped looking at her, Qingxi put down her arm and looked down at the newspaper.

"How old is the little sister?"

Qingxi raised her head in surprise.

Liu Yuanyuan looked at her with a smile, woke up after taking a nap, and found that there was a beautiful little girl opposite her, and she couldn't help but want to tease her.

Liu Yuanyuan is 33 years old this year, and her pair of phoenix eyes are charming and seductive. When she looks at someone with her eyes focused, few people are not bewitched by it.

Qingxi was inexplicably hot and whispered: "It's fifteenth."

Liu Yuanyuan looked at the little girl's embroidered clothes and smiled in an unknown way.

Qingxi's fair cheeks suddenly became redder. I don't understand why a woman would feel teased when she looked at her breasts.

"Madam, too?" Old Mrs. Xu suddenly interrupted, looked at Liu Yuanyuan's eyes with a little scrutiny.

Liu Yuanyuan crossed her legs and drew her hands with red nail polish to fix her skirt, saying, "Yes, I'm going home, where are you?"

Old Mrs. Xu couldn't help but raise her chin and said proudly: "We should go to Old Mrs. Gu's birthday party at the invitation of the Gu family."

Her voice was not low. As soon as she said that, Liu Yuanyuan unexpectedly opened her red lips. Everyone in the other seats looked over when they heard the words, including Lu Duo. Only Gu Huaixiu maintained his original posture, as if he didn't know where the Gu family was in Old Mrs. Xu's mouth was, or, he knew, but he didn't care.

"The beauty of Xiucheng, can you be the fiancée of the Gu family?" As if she had discovered something fun, Liu Yuanyuan stared at Qingxi with interest.

The marriage was known by the people in the entire carriage, and Qingxi's face was about to turn red. She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips without saying a word. Old Mrs. Xu was so natural that she admitted it openly and glanced at Lu Duo threateningly.

This time Lu Duo was not angry, but felt regretful that he rarely met a super beauty, but the future wife of Gu's family, which was a waste of resources.

For the next period of time, the entire carriage was filled with attention to the future grandmother of the Gu family, either peeping or whispering. It was not until noon that two male waiters came in with the dining cart that everyone's attention was shifted to lunch.

Some people want Western food, some people want Chinese food, and Chinese food is all specialty dishes from the Jiangnan area.

"It's really unpalatable." Old Mrs. Xu picked up a piece of beggar chicken. After eating, she was very disgusted and put down her chopsticks and didn't need to.

Qingxi thinks that the dishes on the train are definitely incomparable to my father's skills, but they are not so unpalatable that they can't swallow them.

She continued to enjoy slowly. As soon as she swallowed a small mouthful of rice, a sharp scream suddenly came from the front of the carriage, accompanied by the chaos of the tableware and porcelain plates hitting the ground. Qingxi's heart tightened. At this moment, a black shadow suddenly stopped in front of them, holding a gun in his hand, and threatened fiercely: "Who dares to scream, I will kill whom with one shot!"

The bone-thrusting cold air spread rapidly throughout his body. Qingxi grabbed his grandmother's arm in fear and looked at the two bandits pretending to be waiters guarding the car door one by one, and then two hypocritical accomplices stood out among the passengers, one threatening with guns, and the other robbed passengers' property from the first row.

"Don't be afraid, we'll be fine if we pay the money." Old Mrs. Xu shivered while comforting her granddaughter with a trembling voice.

Will it be that simple?

Qingxi looked at the bandits in front of him uneasyly, but saw the strong man holding the gun also looked at her, and his eyes were facing each other. The man touched his chin and whistled lewd evilly.

Qingxi's face turned pale, and instinctively moved her eyes to the man in black who was diagonally opposite. She was also the only man who could see half of her face clearly. However, the man was still leaning lazily against the back of the chair, his head was tilted, and his eyes were covered by sunglasses, as if he was sleeping.

There was also a man in white, but Qingxi didn't dare to move his neck. Under the table, she moved her feet helplessly and stepped on something.

Qingxi looked down undetectable.

Under her feet was a Western steak knife, with a long hilt and narrow blades that must have slid over in chaos.

It was not as sharp as the kitchen knife at home. This was the first thought that came out of Qingxi's head. Then, she was so stupid that she thought of her father's method of chopping vegetables. Cut, slice, chop, chop...

The bandits are three tables away from them.

Qingxi's hands were still shaking, but her right foot hidden under the table carefully moved the steak knife to the corner of the wall, and then tightly pressed the upper of her shoe against the steak knife, moving it up little by little.

His eyes were staring at the bandit getting closer and closer, and his right foot was steadily moving the knife. Qingxi, who was tense, noticed that the man in black was diagonally staring at her feet, raising her higher and higher through his black sunglasses. Under the dim table, the woman's red skirt gradually moved upward, revealing a piece of white and smooth calves.

Gu Huaixiu suddenly felt a little thirsty, sat upright, picked up the tea bowl as if nothing had happened, and behaved gracefully.

Lu Duo coughed and asked his uncle with his eyes. After riding in the car for a long time, he had itchy hands and wanted to loosen his muscles and bones.

Gu Huaixiu shook his head.
