Chapter 110 Someone
Chapter 110 Someone
Not long after Lin Xue and Ning Zheng entered the room, Zhang Heng brought Wang Min over. It wasn't that Zhang Heng wanted to bring Wang Min over, but Wang Min's mother asked that Zhang Heng choose one person from her or Wang Min to bring over today. Zhang Heng had no choice but to bring Wang Min over.
"Thank you so much for what you did today, Lin Zhiqing. I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you." Zhang Heng thanked Lin Xue as soon as he entered the house.
Lin Xue couldn't help but sigh after hearing these words. No wonder the village girls were stunned. No matter what his character was like, his etiquette was really impeccable.
"It's okay, it's no trouble. Just take a look and see which one you like." He pointed to the fabric on the kang.
Looking in the direction of Lin Xue's hand, Wang Min felt that she had never seen so much cloth in her life.
"Brother Heng, look at how many styles there are. I have never seen so many styles. There are really too many. I don’t know what color to choose. How about you help me choose?" For a moment, Wang Min really couldn’t make a choice. It’s not that she couldn’t make a choice, but she liked all of them and wanted them all.
Seeing Wang Min's actions, Zhang Heng internally complained that she was so petty. She was making such a fuss over a piece of fabric, which was truly embarrassing for him. However, despite his internal complaints, Zhang Heng maintained a deeply affectionate expression.
"It's okay, don't worry. Take your time to choose, and you will always be able to choose the one you like best." No matter how Wang Min hinted, Zhang Heng was not in a hurry, but his words implied that you can only choose one.
Even though Wang Min was in love, she knew that she could only choose one today, so after careful consideration, she chose bright red. Although she liked light yellow very much, red was definitely more suitable for a wedding.
"Brother Heng, I've chosen the red one. I'll make a new dress with my mother tomorrow so I can wear it and marry you the day after tomorrow."
"Since you have chosen, then we will take this one. Lin Zhiqing, how do you think we can exchange it?" He said this and looked at Lin Xue.
"We're both educated youth, so I won't take advantage of you. I bought this piece of cloth using three cloth coupons totaling eight yuan. If you don't have enough cloth coupons, you can convert them into cash and give me a total of nine yuan." Lin Xue didn't really ask for much money. You know, most of the cloth on the market now is black, gray, and blue, and the bright red color in her hand is hard to come by.
Zhang Heng, also from a big city, knew the price Lin Xue had quoted him wasn't high, so he readily paid on the spot. "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your generosity. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to find such good fabric right now. Mr. Lin, you must go early the day after tomorrow."
As he said this, he gave the money to Lin Xue.
"We will definitely be there early by then, don't worry, Zhang Zhiqing." No matter what time she and Chuchu will go there, it still hurts that she has agreed now.
After paying the money, Zhang Heng and Wang Min left Lin Xue's house together.
As soon as they left, Lin Xue and Ning Zheng went to the kitchen to get busy. They had all eaten at Qiao Chuchu's place many times. Qiao Chuchu had not eaten at her place many times, so this time Lin Xue wanted to use her own special skills to entertain Qiao Chuchu.
She went to the kitchen to look at the ingredients at home, thinking about what to cook later. When she looked at the ingredients and researched what to eat for lunch, Lin Xue couldn't help but sigh. Fortunately, she didn't get lazy a few days ago and took out a lot of ingredients from the space, otherwise she wouldn't know what to eat for lunch today.
"How about we make some old duck soup, shredded potatoes, pickled cabbage and vermicelli stew, and braised pork ribs for lunch today? For the main course, let's have rice. I happened to have stockpiled a lot of rice. To be honest, I really don't like to eat rice."
After looking at the ingredients, Lin Xue told Ning Zheng about the arrangements for today's lunch. Ning Zheng certainly had no objection to Lin Xue's suggestion.
Seeing that Ning Zheng had no objection, Lin Xue asked Ning Zheng to start working.
At this time, Qiao Chuchu also calculated the time and came to Lin Xue's house with Ji Shaowen, but she found a person standing at the gate of Lin Xue's house from a distance. When she was about to go closer to see who it was, the person left.
Although she didn't see clearly who this person was, Qiao Chuchu still had a vague guess in her heart. It seemed that she had to tell Lin Xue that some things still needed to be prevented in advance.
Qiao Chuchu's guess was correct. The person standing outside Lin Xue's door was Fang Wenhua. Although Fang Wenhua had been engaged to Yang Jingshu at the behest of his parents, he still couldn't let go of Lin Xue. Not only that, but even when he had this thought, a voice in his head told him that Lin Xue should be his wife.
Ever since he got engaged to Yang Jingshu, Fang Wenhua had always felt this way whenever he felt like accepting his fate. It was precisely because of this voice that Fang Wenhua kept paying attention to Lin Xue. Even though Lin Xue had repeatedly told him to keep his distance, he still couldn't help but care about her.
It was also because of his excessive attention that Yang Jingshu often troubled Lin Xue. Seeing his lover being hurt again and again by Yang Jingshu, Fang Wenhua took the initiative to distance himself from Lin Xue. However, this time, someone else appeared beside Lin Xue, making the voice in his mind stronger, and also made him approach Lin Xue again.
Soon, Qiao Chuchu and Ji Shaowen arrived at Lin Xue's door. Qiao Chuchu stopped to look at the footprints on the snow. Because Wang Min and Zhang Heng had been there before, the footprints were a bit messy. However, Qiao Chuchu still found a series of footprints between Fang Wenhua and Lin Xue's house. It seemed that she was right. The person just now was Fang Wenhua.
"You're already at the door, why don't you go in? What are you looking at so intently?" Ji Shaowen noticed that Qiao Chuchu stopped at the door and didn't go in. She just stared at the snow in a daze, so he asked.
"There's nothing to see. Let's go in first." Some things were not convenient to say outside, so Qiao Chuchu pulled Ji Shaowen into Lin Xue's house.
As soon as they entered the yard, they smelled a rich fragrance.
"What delicious food are you cooking? It smells so good. I wasn't hungry at first, but the smell of it made my stomach growl."
"If you're hungry for a while, just eat more. My cooking skills are not as good as yours. As long as you don't think it tastes bad, it's fine." Lin Xue was very happy to hear Qiao Chuchu say that the food tasted delicious. After all, no one wants others to say that the food they worked so hard to cook is not delicious.
"Okay, stop standing in the yard. It's so cold. Come into the house and warm up." As he said that, he pulled Qiao Chuchu into the house.
After taking some fruits and vegetables and placing them on the kang for Ji Shaowen and Qiao Chuchu, Lin Xue went back to the kitchen and started working again.
Knowing that now was not the time to talk, Qiao Chuchu did not tell Lin Xue what she had just seen outside the door.
