Ever since Xichu arrived, any decent merchants have been coming to give gifts non-stop.
In just a few hours, their empty medical center was instantly surrounded by all kinds of gifts.
It ranges from medicinal materials that are hard to buy for a lot of money to the food in their bowls.
Yao Ya was so happy that he had the ingredients, and he went to the kitchen to cook in excitement. Before long, a table full of good wine and delicious food was placed on the table.
The senior brothers had not eaten decent food for a long time, so naturally their mouths watered when they saw this table of food.
But Li Kui is extremely punctual and won't eat until noon.
Li Kui stayed at the dinner table with his senior brothers until noon, then waited for Li Kui to finish paying respects to heaven and earth, and then to Uncle Qi, before slowly moving his chopsticks.
As soon as Li Kui moved, everyone started gobbling up like hungry wolves.
Li Kui naturally couldn't stand it. If he hadn't thought that they had just escaped, he would have hit them with a ruler.
Although Luo Xiangyi had a small appetite, he was still hungry. He didn't raise his head while eating, but even so he still carefully threw out the fat.
Sha Tong had long seen Luo Xiangyi's wasteful behavior, but no matter what, Li Kui was here, so as not to bring trouble to himself, he simply stayed out of sight and out of mind, staring at the rice in his bowl without looking up.
Unexpectedly, someone actually spoke out his feelings.
Moreover, this person is still Li Zijing who always dislikes him.
Li Zijing was holding the rice bowl, tapping the fat meat on the table with the head of his chopsticks, and said coldly, "Why don't you eat?"
She said: "I don't like to eat."
Li Zijing said: "Throw it away if you don't like it? Who told you to waste it like this?"
"That's right." When Sha Tong saw Li Zijing opening his head, he could no longer control his resentment, "It's been so hard for us along the way. Whenever we have food, it's all the brothers who squeezed it out from between their teeth. , It’s better for you, now that you have food, you can waste it as you like.”
Li Kui seemed to have noticed it too.
But when a girl is scolded in front of someone at the dinner table, it is inevitable that she will lose face.
Li Kui glared at Li Zijing, as if to accuse him of being harsh, and then comforted Luo Xiangyi in a low voice, "It's okay, Xiao Qi. Just eat if you don't want to. I'm a teacher and I can't afford any meat."
Everyone knew how much Li Kui felt sorry for this little apprentice, and couldn't even bear to let her be a little wronged. All the rules and strictness seemed to be gone from Luo Xiangyi.
Li Zijing said: "Old man Li, was everything you told us before farts?"
Li Kui was so angry that he slammed his chopsticks and said, "Li Zijing!"
Luo Xiangyi's heart trembled, and she was heartbroken at the dinner table. She had seen this since she was a child.
Every time her stepmother always lost her temper with her for various reasons, sometimes she didn't even know why, but every time she heard the sound of throwing chopsticks, she would have a physical reaction of fear.
Luo Xiangyi said nothing, just kept eating the fat meat on the table.
One bite after another, forgetting that you even need to chew.
Li Kui felt distressed and wanted to stop it, but found that Luo Xiangyi had already finished eating the fat.
The senior brothers were all stunned. They wanted to say something to comfort them, but they didn't know where to start.
Luo Xiangyi smiled lightly, with oil at the corners of his mouth, and seemed not to feel any discomfort.
She just walked off the table with a smile, her stomach was churning, and her mouth was constantly filled with sour water. Anyone who greeted her, she just nodded slightly.
Because she knew that whenever she opened her mouth, the overwhelming tide would flow out.
She walked all the way to her room, saw a copper basin, and immediately felt saved.
Luo Xiangyi vomited out almost everything in his stomach, including all the acidic water in his stomach.
She tried her best to hide her voice, fearing that her senior brothers would hear the same thing.
She is used to living without food, so naturally she is not picky about food, but fat is the only thing she fears most in her life.
It's not that she has hated it since she was a child, but one time her mother was hungry and she could never get any food, so she secretly went to the kitchen to steal some food.
Who would have thought that she was so lucky that day that she got a bowl of braised pork.
My mother felt full after eating one piece, but she smelled the aroma of meat and had no fat in her stomach all year round, so she was greedy and ate the entire bowl of braised pork.
He ate like this all of a sudden, and he was able to hold her back.
I couldn't move even if I held my stomach.
Little did she know that this plate of braised pork was deliberately left for her by her half-sister Luo Ziyan. After her father found out that she had eaten it secretly, he whipped her with a whip.
She was already feeling sick to her stomach, but this whipping made her vomit and have diarrhea, and her whole body felt like she was stepping on cotton.
She was lying on the snow in embarrassment, while Luo Ziyan looked down at her triumphantly, "Inferior people are inferior people. When they get something good, they can't wait to put it in their mouths, no matter whether it's poisonous or not, hahahaha... …”
That day she found out that the braised pork had already been filled with laxatives, just waiting to see her laugh.
The feeling of vomiting was not pleasant, and it reminded me of that bad memory all the time.
Luo Xiangyi vomited out almost all the acidic water in his stomach, and his tears kept falling from his eyes. It wasn't that he was wronged, it was just physical discomfort.
At this moment, Yao Ya came with a bowl of sour plum juice.
When people feel nauseous, drinking something sweet and sour is the best way to relieve nausea.
As a woman, Yao Ya had to be more considerate, so she hurried to the kitchen to make some sour plum juice.
Yao Ya didn't ask or say anything. He just breathed a sigh of relief when Luo Xiangyi looked better.
She patted Luo Xiangyi's back and comforted: "Don't take what happened just now to your heart. Zijing has always been arrogant and never considers other people's feelings. Please be more considerate."
Luo Xiangyi nodded while drinking.
Yao Mum was able to comfort her with such sincere words, which probably meant that he had taught Li Zijing a lesson, and she had no resentment in her heart.
In other words, I'm used to it.
A little more, a little less, it doesn't seem to matter.
Yao Mum smiled slightly and took out the post he had prepared. It was bright red and looked like it should be a wedding invitation.
There are dense records of rare treasures on it, some of which have names that I have never even heard of.
Yao Mum didn't come to Luo Xiangyi just to give him a bowl of sour plum juice, but more importantly, she came to be a lobbyist.
Luo Xiangyi was stunned when he saw the name on the signature.
Xichu.
This is the betrothal gift, the betrothal gift for her.
Yao Ya held Luo Xiangyi's hand and said happily: "Your Luo family's head agreed to this marriage. They even swallowed the betrothal gift, but I have to say that your husband is an excellent match." , if you follow him and don’t talk about Ronghua, at least he won’t bully you.”
Jingguo was in chaos, and all the respectable people took refuge in various places.
Naturally, the rich Luo family was also the first to bear the brunt. They were the first to move from Jingguo and settled in Nanxia City early.
Originally, the Luo family didn't care about their daughter who was living abroad at all, but when they heard that Xi Chu actually went to greet Li Kui from Kang Qingtang in person, that was all.
Xi Chu's preference for Luo Xiangyi was seen by everyone.
Although Xi Chu has a gentle temperament, he is not someone he is easy to get close to. Over the years, no one has heard of any woman Xi Chu likes.
Being alone all year round, people naturally began to speculate on the reasons.
But most people think that perhaps Xi Chu has not avenged his great revenge and does not want to be slowed down by his children's affair.
But that day, in public.
Xi Chu's eyes never left Luo Xiangyi, and everyone saw this.
Of course, this matter soon reached the ears of Luo Xiangyi's father.
Most people who are engaged in business are rich in profit, so how can they let go of this once-in-a-century opportunity, so Luo Fu came directly to propose marriage.
You heard it right, as a woman, she went to the man’s house to propose marriage.
Fortunately, Xi Chu did not blame Luo Fu for being unreasonable. Instead, he agreed immediately. Even the betrothal gifts were in accordance with the standards of the imperial concubine. In the end, all these valuable betrothal gifts went to the Luo family.
Although Yao Mang hates this arrangement of the Luo family, he is very optimistic about this husband.
She has been coming to Nanxia City for a while, and the vegetable market is often the place where she gets the most information.
The people all gave Xi Chu a thumbs up, and she could probably guess that Luo Xiangyi and Xi Chu were more than just acquaintances.
Luo Xiangyi's eyes were so pale that Yao Ya couldn't even understand her thoughts at all.
I thought she was talking too much.
Unexpectedly, Luo Xiangyi nodded in agreement.
She smiled slightly and said, "The man my aunt likes must be excellent. I just listen to my aunt."
Yao Ya suddenly smiled. It was most important for a girl to find a home. From the first day Luo Xiangyi came to the hospital, she felt sorry for this helpless girl. Now she is fine.
After Yao Ya finished speaking, he was busy arranging wedding arrangements.
Luo Xiangyi sat by the bed and took out the calligraphy and painting from under the pillow, which was given to her by Li Zijing. After the writing on it dried, the ink faded slightly, but it still retained the vigor and strength of the author's hand.
Somehow, Li Zijing's face appeared in her mind.
Perhaps they have a similar blood relationship, as if everything ties them together.
She wants to get married, but to her, it seems like she is not the one getting married.
It was even a little hard to say, I didn’t know how to tell Li Zijing about this in person.
Luo Xiangyi knew in her heart that she never had the right to choose in her marriage.
The orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, even though Luo Fu didn't really love her as a daughter, her obligations as a child did not allow her to resist.
Fortunately, she didn't want to resist.
She had never suffered any hardships or suffered any grievances in the Luo family before, but for her mother, she endured everything.
But now, Luofu still regards her as an easy persimmon.
She didn't care about the betrothal gift of the box of rare treasures, but she couldn't bear to see others monopolize her.
From now on, Xi Chu will be her confidence.
They are also men who supported each other until they grew old.
She was no longer alone and no longer bullied.
Her things, her mother's things, she wanted Luo Mansion to return them exactly.
