Chapter 171 (1/2)
In the afternoon, the weather suddenly changed. Originally, the sky was still clear and the sun was shining brightly. However, the wind was blowing and the rain was coming. Du Hua Yue shook the water on his umbrella and muttered: ”this is a terrible weather!”
Du Xiaoxian stood by the door and said with a smile, ”brother Yue, today is new year's Eve. You are not allowed to say that word. If you let your second aunt hear it, you will certainly be scolded.”
Du Huayue also laughed: ”that's true. My grandmother is an old thought, and I can't listen to the bad things in the new year.”
Du Xiaoxian asked, ”did she receive the money and clothes I asked you to send to my second aunt?”
”She likes the clothes. She says I want to thank you for the money,” said Du Hua Yueh, pausing for a moment. ”My mother asked me to pay you back. She said that you need money in many places outside. How can I do it? You have to keep it yourself. Don't worry about her. ”
Du Xiaoxian was a little disappointed. ”She didn't ask for money.”
”My grandmother also said,” Du Hua Yue hesitated for a moment. ”You should be careful when you are outside alone. You should not be envious that other people are quick to make money, and there are many bad people outside. You should know how to argue. Also said that the most important thing for girls is to keep clean! Take care of yourself
Du Xiaoxian frowned slightly: ”second aunt is afraid of me...”
”My mother certainly believes that you are a good girl, but the money you gave is too much,” Du Huayue said. ”A gift is an integer. My grandmother has never seen so much money in her life. She must have been scared. I said it was wrong at the beginning. You forced me to remit it, but now you have returned it?
Du Xiaoxian also knows that it's not right. How long has she been doing this? How can she send such a large sum of money back? It's because she's worried about bin, saying that she's grateful to her second aunt for taking care of her over the years. She was moved by what he said and agreed. I didn't expect it would be self defeating.
Seeing Du Xiaoxian not talking for a long time, Du Huayue comforted her: ”it's OK. My mother doesn't know that you've found a rich man. She's just worried. I told her that if I look at her, you won't be in trouble.”
Du Xiaoxian nodded, but there was some regret in her heart. It was her long cherished wish to earn money and honor her second aunt. She didn't expect to achieve this, but at least she took away her clothes, which could be regarded as her wish.
They talked for a while, and a Ling came to ask for dinner. Du Xiaoxian didn't eat anything at noon, so she talked to her young master. Because it was new year's Eve, she always felt that it was different from usual eating. It seemed very strange. Gu nianbin didn't feed her as usual. He wanted to go, but he couldn't bear to leave. From time to time, he was bored with her for a while.
After a meal, the food on the table didn't move much, and the wine didn't dare to drink too much. However, both of them seemed to be slightly drunk because they were not drunk when they were staring at the love in each other's eyes. Two people sit on the sofa quietly nestled for a long time, Gu nianbin just got up and left.
So at this time, Du Xiaoxian was really a little hungry and started eating with chopsticks. Du Hua Yue was a man who was happy when he had meat. He picked up a piece of pickled pork and stuffed it with oil all over his mouth. Ah Ling was not restrained. He was very comfortable talking and laughing with them.
The rain outside had stopped for a long time, but it was snowing heavily, because during the Spring Festival, all the lamps in the courtyard were on, and the snowflakes were pouring in under the lamps, as dense as countless little moths fighting the fire.
”Auspicious snow is a good year,” Du Xiaoxian said happily, ”it seems that next year will be a good time again.”
Du Hua Yue touched ah Ling with his cup and said, ”what does it have to do with you? Do you want to go back and make your share of the land?”
Du Xiaoxian grinned and lowered his eyes. He said, ”I will not go back.”
”That's right,” said Du Hua Yue. ”I can't think of going back. How wonderful the city is. When I'm out of the limelight, I'll take my grandmother out to enjoy my happiness.”
Ah Ling remembered that Du Xiaoxian had an Abba, so she said, ”Xiaoxian, when it comes time, you will take your father out, and the young master will treat him well.”
Du Xiaoxian didn't speak, but Du Hua Yue murmured in a stuffy voice: ”why do you take him out?”
Ah Ling was puzzled, but it was not easy to ask again when she saw that their faces were not right.
Du Huayue, however, took the wine to vent his depression and poured out his head: ”her father-in-law is not a good man at all. Every time I came back after drinking wine outside, I beat Xiaoxian less, but I asked for money as soon as I came back. Xiaoxian saved a little money and asked him to leave. How can she live without food or clothing? Later, he went so far as to sell Xiaoxian to the old man in the neighboring village. Xiaoxian had no choice but to run out. ”
”Brother Yue, stop talking. It's all over.” Du Xiaoxian instead laughed: ”don't you think I'm good now?”
”Now?” Du Hua Yue looked around the furnishings in the room and said faintly, ”I hope so.” In his heart, he still felt that Du Xiaoxian and Gu nianbin were not suitable. Such a magnificent room was not the place for people like them to stay.
