Chapter 63 063
He rushed to find Gu Huaixiu but was stunned. Old Mrs. Xu's chest became even more stuffy. On the way home from the rickshaw, she really didn't like anything.
Today is Saturday. Lin Wanyin went to Han to teach Qin and Yuxi went to play with female classmates. So when Mrs. Xu returned home, she only saw her four-year-old granddaughter Yunxi playing with Fugui in the yard. The sun was shining brightly, and Fugui was lazily lying on the ground and exposed her belly. Yunxi sat on a small stool and carefully helped Fugui combed his hair.
Seeing Mrs. Xu, Fugui only turned his eyes and continued to lie down.
Yunxi jumped happily, stretched out her short arms and ran towards Old Lady Xu: "Grandma, you are back!"
My mother and sisters are not at home. Yunxi usually sticks to her grandmother's side, and she thinks about it if she doesn't see her later.
The girl was wearing a pink skirt, like a watery flower bud, running against the light, and her face was white and clean by the sun, like a beautiful jade.
The child's smile is innocent and pure.
Old Mrs. Xu was settled in place.
Is she really going to the underworld?
The old man Luo Yicheng killed her son, and Mrs. Xu wanted to eat her flesh and ask Luo Yicheng to pay for her son's life. However, if she really asked Gu Huaixiu to do something, the Luo family would have no other enemies, so she would definitely think of their mothers? Mrs. Xu has lived for most of her life. She is not afraid of death or anything, but she still has three granddaughters. What if the Luo family is too anxious and deal with their granddaughters like a mad dog?
"Grandma, where have you been?" Yunxi asked with her grandmother's thighs and raised her head.
Old Mrs. Xu lowered her head and saw her shadow completely covering her granddaughter. The girl's face turned red, but it was not as delicate and charming as in the sun.
Can she walk alone in the underworld?
No, if she leaves, it means that all their mothers have left. As long as she asks someone to take revenge on the Luo family, Gu Huaixiu or other underworld, they will have the handle of the Xu family. Last night, Mrs. Xu was so angry that she had only the idea of revenge in her heart. She even agreed to promise Gu Huaixiu's proposal to marry her and revenge on the Luo family first. However, now, Mrs. Xu suddenly felt that compared with the peace of her granddaughters, she would rather wait, and one day find evidence of the Luo family buying the evil, and ask the Luo family to get the retribution they deserve through Baidao.
Yes, that's how it should be. She hasn't seen clearly how Gu Huai's cultivation is. How could she sloppyly give him the eldest granddaughter as a condition?
"Grandmother has gone to the park." Old Mrs. Xu picked up her granddaughter with a complicated smile.
Yunxi looked outside the door and said enviously: "I want to go too."
Old Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Okay, wait for my grandmother to change her clothes, and take Yunxi there."
Yunxi felt that today's grandmother was very easy to talk to. She wouldn't agree so quickly what she wanted in the past.
Old Mrs. Xu kept her word. After changing her clothes, she really took Yunxi to the park by the lake. Of course, she was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery. She just wanted to go out for some breath and retaliate against the Luo family with tooth. It was not so easy to completely dispel.
As a result, the grandparents and grandchildren were walking in the park not long after, and the concierge hurriedly came over and said that the wife of the Chen family of the Shanjuke was visiting.
When Old Mrs. Xu heard this, she quickly took her granddaughter home.
Mrs. Chen did not come alone, and she also brought her daughter-in-law, the eldest young lady and the eldest young lady's two daughters. She had met Mrs. Xu before. The ten-year-old was named Chen Shu and the five-year-old was named Chen Yan.
Mr. Chen is about 10 years older than Xu Wangshan, but a few years younger than Mrs. Xu. Therefore, Mrs. Chen follows her husband's instructions and calls Mrs. Xu an aunt. In this way, Qingxi and the eldest grandmother of the Chen family and the fifth young master Chen Yao are both peers.
Mrs. Xu is a good-looking man. Just from a single title, I guessed that Mrs. Chen suddenly visited her. It must be that Mrs. Chen was attracted by her granddaughter's beauty, upbringing and cooking skills, and was determined to promote a marriage.
There are thousands of families in the family who want to ask for their granddaughters, the more proud Mrs. Xu will be.
"Please sit in the room quickly." After sweeping away the previous depression, Mrs. Xu invited enthusiastically.
The children were playing outside, Mrs. Chen and the eldest young lady were talking with Mrs. Xu in the house. Not long after, Qingxi finished her morning business and went home.
Mrs. Chen came here and saw Qingxi. As Mrs. Xu guessed, Mr. Chen really wanted Qingxi to be her daughter-in-law, so she sent her wife to come first to get closer to get the relationship closer, and then propose marriage when the time is right.
"Auntie, Grandma, Grandma." Qingxi came over to see him.
Mrs. Chen looked at the girl opposite her and saw that the girl had white skin as jade, her facial features were beautiful and elegant, which was easy to attract men's gaze and love, and would not make the elders feel charming. Moreover, the girl's all-body beauty, if she hadn't asked clearly in advance, if someone told her that this girl was a shopkeeper and a chef in person, Mrs. Chen would definitely not believe it.
"Qingxi looks so much, it really opened my eyes." Mrs. Chen praised Mrs. Xu very sincerely, "It is said that there are many beauties in Jiangnan. I probably have read too many of them. I don't think it is as exaggerated as described in the poem. When I saw Qingxi today, I finally understood what it means to be ashamed of the moon and shy flowers, and to sink fish and goose."
With such praise, Qingxi blushed and she lowered her eyes shyly.
Old Mrs. Xu waved her hands repeatedly and said with a smile: "Follow her mother, just look a little better. In terms of appearance, the fifth young master in the mansion is handsome and handsome, young and promising."
Mrs. Chen heard it and then looked at Mrs. Xu and smiled, knowing that there was a chance for this marriage.
Qingxi is not stupid either. She glanced at her and Chen Yao's grandmother before she gave up. Qingxi felt tired, but due to etiquette, she could not show it. After the Chen family's mother left, Qingxi whispered to her grandmother: "Don't forget to promise what the third master has promised. Besides, I respect Mr. Chen and also have the intention to ask Mr. Chen and the fifth master for cooking. If my grandmother embarrasses the relationship between the two families, I will have no shame to ask for advice again in the future."
Old Mrs. Xu frowned and stared at her granddaughter in confusion: "What's the point of Gu San? A handful of age, decades ago, could be your father, but he was not like the fifth young master, and he was a talented person, and he was the same age as you. You two are together, talk about cooking skills and recipes, so they are like-minded."
"Anyway, I, I..."
Qingxi wanted to say that she only likes Gu Huaixiu, but she couldn't speak out. She glared at her grandmother and Qingxi went back to her room to rest.
Old Mrs. Xu sat alone in the main hall, comparing the appearance of Gu Huaixiu and Chen Yao in her mind. Finally, I have to admit that Gu Huaixiu is indeed more handsome than Chen Yao. However, Chen Yao is young, only nineteen, and gentle, and I really can't figure out why my granddaughter doesn't like a gentleman, but instead becomes possessed by the cruel and ruthless Gu Laosan.
At around ten o'clock, Qingxi went to the noodle shop again.
At noon, a black Buick stopped in front of Xu's door. The driver opened the car door and Gu Huaixiu leaned out, wearing a black suit and a cold face.
The concierge invited the person in nervously.
Old Mrs. Xu had expected Gu Huaixiu to come, and led Yunxi out to meet a few steps.
"At this time, the old lady can have lunch?" Gu Huaixiu asked politely, his eyes still cold, and it was obvious at a glance that he was just mechanically completing some kind of common ritual, rather than sincere greetings.
Old Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Not yet, has the third master used it? If you don't dislike it, just have lunch here?"
Gu Huaixiu was not interested. There was only one person in the Xu family who was worthy of his deskmate.
"There will be a dinner later. I heard that the old lady has something to come to me?" Gu Huaixiu asked directly in front of the screen wall.
Old Mrs. Xu's expression remained unchanged. She touched Yunxi's head and explained obscurely: "Thanks to the third master's reminder, Qingxi went to the competition yesterday and everything went smoothly, so I want to thank the third master in person."
Gu Huaixiu knew she was lying, but he had no intention of exposing it and asked lightly: "You are polite, but are there any instructions from others?"
Old Mrs. Xu shook her head.
Gu Huaixiu said goodbye and left without saying a word.
Old Mrs. Xu sent the person to the door and looked at the car driving out of Laoliu Lane. Old Mrs. Xu frowned, and suddenly couldn't grasp the man's thoughts. Her cold and alienated tone seemed to have weakened her thoughts with her granddaughter. But it would be better to be calm. To be honest, Old Mrs. Xu is more inclined to let her granddaughter marry into the innocent Chen family.
During the day, Lu Duo was soaking in the textile factory. When he came back in the afternoon, he learned from the doorman that Mrs. Xu had been here and that his uncle had also been to the Xu family. Lu Duo immediately ran into the villa like a monkey and ran up the second floor.
"Uncle, what do you mean by the old lady?" Lu Duo asked panting.
Gu Huaixiu didn't hide everything from his nephew, and said calmly: "In yesterday's competition, the Jiang family must have been exposed. The old lady came in anger and wanted me to avenge her. She changed her mind for some reason at noon and didn't mention a word."
"This is strange." Lu Duo sat opposite his uncle with his chin, trying to understand Old Mrs. Xu's thoughts.
Gu Huaixiu was reading a book and provided clues without raising his head: "In the morning, Mrs. Chen went to the Xu family."
Mrs. Chen?
Lu Duo thought for a while before he realized it and said in disbelief: "The old lady wants to step on two boats?"
Gu Huaixiu smiled, with sarcasm.
Lu Duo understood that when Mrs. Xu saw another boat, she wanted to kick my uncle's "future future".
"Fortunately Miss Qingxi doesn't look like her at all." Lu Duo said angrily. The old woman is an old woman, with dizzy eyes. How could Chen Yao compare to his uncle?
After being depressed for a while, Lu Duo was still unwilling to give up and whispered: "Uncle, let's send someone to see the Luo family. The old lady knows it, and she will be grateful to us."
Gu Huaixiu vetoed it. He would deal with the Luo family, but not now. Some people are enough for a bullet, while others are more suitable for a dull knife.
"Send it here." The conversation about the Luo family ended here. Gu Huaixiu took out the notes prepared in advance and put them on the coffee table.
Lu Duo picked it up, and he knew it without looking at it. The note was written on the time and place.
Qingxi has been busy preparing for the food festival competition for the time being. It has not seen Gu Huaixiu for more than half a month. Now that the competition is over, when she sees Gu Huaixiu's handwriting, the longing that she had deliberately suppressed for a long time surges up like a tide. Lying on the bed at night, Qingxi tossed and turned, she couldn't sleep. Her mind was full of last time she met. She was kissed by him on the boat for more than an hour.
I will definitely not let him kiss tomorrow.
Qingxi didn't like it, she was just afraid of Gu Huaixiu like that, and was afraid that he would put his hands on her waist. Although Gu Huaixiu didn't do anything besides kissing, Qingxi could feel that Gu Huaixiu was actually restraining something.
Qingxi doesn't understand, and doesn't want to understand.
In order to avoid intimacy, the next afternoon, before Qingxi went to Liuyuan to meet Lu Duo, she specially asked Meng Jin to buy an old duck at a nearby vegetable market. Then she and Cuicui walked slowly. When they arrived at Liuyuan, Meng Jin also ran over with a quacking gray-haired old duck.
Fugui wagged his tail and went to see the duck. The duck suddenly screamed even harder and struggled shakingly.
Lu Duo:...
He has seen many ladies who bring gifts to his lover for dates, but he has seen them with ducks for the first time in his lifetime.
"I just learned a dish to give you a try." Qingxi said with a heart that didn't blush.
