“Third, brother, you’re back. Put down your cart and come for dinner. Who is this?” Mrs. Jiang heard the sound of the cart and came out and saw that there was an extra girl.
“Mother, we’ll talk later. Let’s eat first.” Xiao Yunjing said to Mrs. Jiang as he tied the cow and led Gu Qingli to the central room.
Wu Qing also entered the central room. Like Gu Qingli, she picked up a bowl and filled it with rice as if it was her own home.
The whole family’s eyes followed her. This girl …
Gu Qingli was curious about Wu Qing’s life. She was so calm that she didn’t even greet her family.
The family strangely finished their meal.
After the meal, old man xiao called the three brothers away.
Mrs. Jiang arranged for Mrs. Yang to wash the dishes, and Mrs. Wang tidied up the storeroom for Wu Qing. Looking at this girl’s posture, she was afraid that she would be living here.
After making the arrangements, Mrs. Jiang asked Wu Qing to stay in the central room, and she returned to Gu Qingli’s room.
“Third brother’s wife, what’s up with this girl?” Mrs. Jiang sat down and asked Gu Qingli.
Gu Qingli didn’t try to hide anything. She told her everything in detail.
“Mother, I don’t know her,” she said.
Mrs. Jiang nodded. She knew what kind of person third aunt was, but why did this girl follow the third aunt for no reason?
Could it be that the man who had bullied her in the past had sent her to find her?
At this time, Mrs. Jiang’s imagination was running wild. She must find time to tell third brother about this possibility.
Mrs. Jiang stayed for a while and went to find her son.
At this moment, old man Xiao looked at his three sons in front of him and said, “Be more alert these days and look after your family.”
Xiao Yunjing and his brothers nodded and went out.
“Third brother, come here for a moment. Mother has something to tell you.” Mrs. Jiang came over just in time to see her three sons coming out. She stepped forward and pulled Xiao Yunjing to the back of the house.
“Mother, what do you have to say here?” What’s so mysterious about it? Let’s talk about it after we enter the room.”
Mrs. Jiang patted her son’s head. ” I’m thinking about this girl who appeared out of nowhere. Did that man send her to find her?” she said.
Xiao Yunjing looked at his mother in surprise. How could his mother be so brilliant? If he hadn’t been the man, he would have believed her.
Seeing his surprised look, Mrs. Jiang thought that her son also believed her, but to her surprise, Xiao Yunjing reached out and whispered a few words in her ear.
“What? Are you telling the truth?” Mrs. Jiang didn’t believe it. She had asked him before, but her son had denied it. He had just said that the man was him.
‘This damn kid.’
Xiao Yunjing nodded silently.
“You little brat, does little Li know?” Mrs. Jiang punched her son’s chest.
A good girl’s reputation had been ruined, but fortunately, she had married him.
Mrs. Jiang glared at her son fiercely. Fortunately, she had never done anything overboard. Otherwise, she would not be able to face her third daughter-in-law.
This muddled things.
“Mother, can’t you be gentler? Li ‘er already knew on the night we got married.” Xiao Yunjing rubbed his chest. His mother hit him.
“You still want me to be gentler? If your father knows, he’ll break your legs.” Mrs. Jiang said unhappily. Why didn’t he say so earlier? He had caused her to beg for their forgiveness in front of the Xiao family’s ancestors.
“Hehe …” Xiao Yunjing touched his head and laughed dryly, then came back holding Mrs. Jiang’s arm.
“What should we do with that girl?” Mrs. Jiang asked worriedly.
“Let her stay here first. Keep her under our eyes and see what her purpose is. It’s not too late to deal with it after we know.” When Xiao Yunjing spoke of this, the gentleness and coldness on his handsome face disappeared.
After the mother and son went their separate ways, Xiao Yunjing returned to his room and saw Gu Qingli opening the bag from yesterday.
“What did you buy?” Xiao Yunjing’s face returned to his usual rough face as he asked Gu Qingli in a soft voice.
“Clothes.” she had forgotten about it when Mrs. Jiang was here.
Gu Qingli took out the gifts for old man Xiao and Mrs. Jiang and gave them to Xiao Yunjing. “Take this to father and mother.”
Xiao Yunjing saw that she didn’t buy anything for herself, and he frowned. “You didn’t?”
“I have so many clothes to wear, so why should I buy more? On the other hand, you only have those two pieces of clothes.” Gu Qingli said indifferently. She was only 16 years old after the new year and still wanted to grow taller. It would be a waste if she couldn’t wear all the clothes she had bought.
” You’re such a good wife. I’ll buy you some tomorrow. ” Xiao Yunjing put down his clothes and held Gu Qingli in his arms. His wife was treating him better and better, which warmed his heart.
Smelling the unique fragrance on his wife’s body, he was tempted for a moment, but he didn’t dare to hug his wife’s petite body.
“No need. There are a few new sets of clothes over there. You can buy a few more sets when I outgrow them.”
“Alright,” he said. Xiao Yunjing’s heart softened. He gathered up her hair, kissed her on the forehead, let her go, took the clothes, and went to his parent’s room.
They wanted their parents to be happy that their daughter-in-law had bought them clothes.
His family’s financial situation was difficult, and they only made a single piece of clothing after a few years. Moreover, she had to buy the fabric and return to make it herself.
It was the first time his parents had worn ready-made clothes. He only had the big red wedding dress.
He didn’t expect Li ‘er wouldn’t buy it for herself but bought it for them. His Li ‘er was excellent.
Thinking of Gu Qingli, Xiao Yunjing smiled gently. He would work hard to make money in the future and give Li ‘er all her favorite things.
He would also be filial to his parents.
Fame and fortune were fleeting, and they were not as happy as these ordinary days.
Gu Qingli watched Xiao Yunjing leave in high spirits. She could tell that Xiao Yunjing was very happy that she had bought clothes for old man Xiao and his wife.
The two old people were good to her, so she didn’t mind being good to them.
She wanted to buy a set for each person in the family. That would cost too much money and reveal that she was wealthy.
She had just married, and with her maternal family like that, spending money extravagantly the moment she came, Where did the money come from?
She didn’t want to be criticized.
Gu Qingli put away Xiao Yunjing’s clothes, went to the central room, called Wu Qing, who was still in a daze, and took her to the room Mrs. wang had prepared for her.
The bed was made of wooden boards covered with thatched grass and a rotten quilt. On top of the quilt were a linen sheet and an old quilt.
She could make do with sleeping.
“Take a rest first. I’ll check your wound tomorrow.”
” Alright, Xiao Li. Thank you, thank you! ”
“You finally know how to say thank you! Do you have a headache? Are you hurt?” Gu Qingli turned back and asked.
Wu Qing touched her head. When she felt the back of her head, she frowned.
Gu Qingli asked, are you injured?
“No, it’s a bump. It hurts a little.”
“Let me touch it.”
