"What? Sister Jin, you said that Shi Lingyin fell in love with Brother Xie and came to you directly?" Lan'er listened on the sidelines and opened her mouth in surprise.
Although she had just noticed the admiration in Shi Lingyin's eyes when she saw Brother Xie, she didn't expect her to be so direct!
Xi Jin nodded: "Yes, just now when you were not here, she came over and mocked me for being old and ugly."
"Why is she so shameless? Brother Xie has a wife. Could it be that she still wants to be a child?" Lan'er simply guessed.
After hearing this, Xie Luo hurriedly explained: "Jin'er, I never had any intention of taking a concubine. I only want you in this life."
Lan'er covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Sister Jin, I'm going back first to see how my mother's rice is doing. You guys can come and eat later."
"Okay." Xi Jin agreed, turned around and looked at Xie Luo's handsome face, and joked, "Sometimes it's troublesome to be too good-looking."
"Jin'er, why don't you put this thing on your face for me too." Xie Luo said extremely seriously.
Xi Jin smiled and patted his hand: "It's too late. My husband's peerless appearance has already been coveted. Otherwise, I'd better give up my position as my wife."
"Jin'er, what are you talking nonsense about?" Xie Luo helped Xi Jin's shoulders with a heavy expression, "Don't make such jokes in the future."
Xi Jin was startled by Xie Luo's serious look: "I know."
"Speaking of which, how did you know she was interested in me? I've never even met her."
"Lin Churou told me." Xi Jin told Xie Luo about meeting Lin Churou today.
Xie Luo thought for a moment: "Jin'er, you shouldn't do such a risky thing. Once Lord Feng finds out about this matter, you may also be implicated.
"Don't look at Lin Churou who is usually bossy and brainless. She thinks about some things very clearly. She is already in such a situation. Clinging to Master Feng may be her best way out."
Xi Jin said with infinite sigh: "Women are obviously more clear-headed if they are not interested in love."
For a long time, Xi Jin didn't hear Xie Luo speak, and turned around to find him walking forward with a heavy expression.
His silence was something Xi Jin had never seen before.
The two of them went to Lan'er's house for dinner together. Lan'er's mother probably took out everything she had at home. The dinner made Xi Jin very upset.
After dinner, Lan'er pulled Xi Jin to the kitchen and said cautiously: "Sister Jin, did you and Brother Xie quarrel?"
"No." How could she quarrel with Xie Luo? Even if she wanted to, Xie Luo wouldn't quarrel with her given his temper.
"Then it seems to me that Brother Xie is not very happy." In Lan'er's impression, Brother Xie always had a gentle smile and was always considerate and gentle to Sister Jin. He had never been so silent.
"Maybe he has his own concerns." Xi Jin said with some guilt. Did he say something wrong just now?
Lan'er patted her chest: "That's good. My mother thought it was because her cooking didn't taste good."
"How could it be possible? Your mother's cooking is much more delicious than mine. I made dumplings last night, but guess what, my husband thought I made noodle soup!"
Lan'er couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Sister Jin, I always thought you could do anything, but it turns out there are things you can't do."
"Of course, no one is perfect."
"Jin'er, it's getting late, let's go back." Xie Luo shouted outside the kitchen.
"Okay." Xi Jin said goodbye to Lan'er without saying goodbye, "I'll call you to the workshop tomorrow."
"Okay." Lan'er lowered her head and took out a piece of silver from her sleeve, "Sister Jin, this is what I was rewarded by the manager today. It was you who came up with the idea, so I should give you the silver as well."
Xi Jin quickly shied away: "The manager rewards you, what can you do for me?"
"But……"
"Lan'er, look." Lan'er's mother walked into the kitchen, spread out her palms, and there was an ingot of broken silver on it, "Xie Luofei wants to give it to me, but you said it was just for a meal, how can you collect money from them?"
Xi Jin looked back at Xie Luo, then smiled and said to them, "Just keep it. If you don't, we won't be able to come and eat for food next time."
Lan'er's mother was a little at a loss, but thinking that her mother-in-law's pockets were empty and her family was bare, she stopped being polite and said, "Then you come here to eat often, and I'll prepare delicious food for you."
"Okay, let's go back first." Xi Jin smiled and pulled Xie Luo's sleeve and went home.
On the way, Xie Luo remained silent, and Xi Jin finally couldn't bear it anymore. Just when he was about to ask, he heard Uncle Liu calling Xie Luo in his yard: "Xie Luo, come here, I have something to tell you. "
Xie Luo looked at Uncle Liu, remembered what he had agreed with him yesterday, and said to Xijin: "Wait for me here for a while, I'll be back as soon as I go."
"good."
Uncle Liu saw Xie Luo coming and hurriedly pulled him aside: "Xie Luo, you were in such a rush yesterday that you didn't tell me how big your bathtub is?"
Xie Luo didn't take it seriously: "Just the normal size."
"Ordinary size?" Uncle Liu stroked his beard and asked with a smile, "Is it for one person or two people?"
"Of course it's for one person, what do you want for two people?" Xie Luo didn't know why. The bathtub was for Jin'er. What did he need for a bathtub that was as big as two people? The house was small and couldn't fit it.
"You don't understand this." Uncle Liu put his arm around Xie Luo's shoulders and whispered in his ear until Xie Luo's face turned red.
"How about it? It should be for two people." Uncle Liu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
Xie Luo hesitated for a while, then raised his eyes to look at Xi Jin's graceful figure standing on the road outside the hospital, and whispered: "Then listen to the uncle."
"That's right." Uncle Liu laughed loudly, "Boys can be taught."
Xie Luo cupped his hands and excused himself quickly.
Aunt Liu came out of the room, looked at Xie Luo's retreating back, and asked doubtfully: "What are you talking about with Xie Luo?"
Uncle Liu touched the wood in his hand: "Nothing, I just asked him how big the tub should be."
Aunt Liu looked at the old man's evil smile and immediately understood: "You damn old man, you are bringing up a bad kid again."
"How could you be a spoiler?" Uncle Liu raised his head and stared at his old wife, "Do you dare to say that the bathtubs of these two people are not easy to use?"
After hearing this, Aunt Liu blushed with embarrassment and patted the old man on the back shyly: "You are an old and dishonest person."
"Just watch, Xie Luo will thank me." Old man Liu looked at the backs of the perfectly matched pair on the road and sighed, "This Xie Luo comes from a noble family and is too rigid in matters of love. If no one gives him a push, he doesn’t know when he will win her heart.”
"What do you mean..." After Uncle Liu said this, Aunt Liu suddenly understood.
No wonder she always felt that it was good for the young couple to be nice to each other. They were obviously treating each other as guests, but it always made people feel a little artificial.
