Men and women eating in the courtyard

"You can pull it down~"

Li Xuewu looked at the old man with a smile and said, "I put on the yellow robe and you kneel down for me. It's not appropriate for me."

The old man tilted his mouth and said, "You're really rude."

"Haha~"

Li Xuewu laughed a few times, then raised his hand to signal and asked, "Tell me, what did you do?"

The old man was a little dissatisfied with the meaning of Li Xuewu's words, but under the eaves, he said helplessly: "I blame you for talking about this."

"Oh? Really"

Li Xuewu nodded in a funny way and said, "Tell me about it. Although I don't have a plaque hanging high here, I always do things fairly."

As he spoke, he spread his hands and added: "Even if it involves myself."

"Not that serious"

The old man raised his head first, then sighed and said: "I feel like my time is running out~..."

"Ha~"

Before the old man finished speaking, Li Xuewu couldn't help laughing. Seeing the old man looking over with dissatisfaction, he smiled and said: "I can't stand it anymore from the way I just tore three young men apart at the gate." There are not many days left."

After finishing speaking, seeing the old man's expression of despair, Li Xuewu knew that he should be listening now, so he raised his hand to signal for him to continue.

The old man pursed his lips and continued: "You told me last time not to expose these things. I thought about it and it's true."

At this point, the old man explained with some frustration: "Many of these clothes were given to me by nobles, and some of them were collected by me. It is really heartbreaking to burn them myself."

"I remembered"

Li Xuewu nodded affirmatively and said: "You told me last time that you would take him away after a hundred years."

Seeing the old man nodding in confirmation, Li Xuewu asked again: "Just because you feel that your time is running out, you want to burn your clothes?"

The old man looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Do you know what the most painful thing in the world is?"

Li Xuewu shook his head slightly, but still asked: "The person died and the money was not spent?"

The old man looked straight at Li Xuewu and said: "As long as you are alive, you can't keep what you want to take away."

Li Xuewu's smile suddenly froze, he raised his eyebrows, squinted his left eye slightly and said, "I don't quite understand what you are talking about."

The old man looked at Li Xuewu for a while, then nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, just think of it as a madman talking nonsense."

Li Xuewu pouted slightly, looked at the lifeless old man, thought for a moment, and asked: "So you were caught burning these things in your yard and were you reported?"

The old man turned to look at Li Xuewu again and said, "They asked me for these clothes, but I didn't give them to them, maybe."

Li Xuewu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Anyone who sees such a wasteful behavior will think that this old man is abnormal, let alone understand his behavior.

Li Xuewu also felt a little pity for the old man, and lamented that living in the old society and living in the new society was indeed a kind of torture.

Moreover, this old man looks like he has seen a lot of people in the world, at least that dragon robe can prove it.

"Are you a tailor?"

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea, took a look at the old man's decent clothes, and asked, "What kind of clothes do you wear?"

The old man looked at Li Xuewu as if he were a fool. He paused for a long time. Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't look like he was joking, he asked, "You go to a restaurant and ask the chef questions like this?"

Seeing the old man's rude reply, Sha Qi, who was standing in the back room, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. No one had spoken to Li Xuewu like this for a long time.

Especially someone as rude as this old man, direct, precise, and ruthless!

Li Xuewu curled his lips, raised his hands, and explained to himself: "You know, cooks also have different cuisines."

"Do you believe it?"

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "You don't know that this is a marketing method, right? Just like shirts, they will sell better since they are divided into men and women."

Li Xuewu smiled helplessly and spread his hands to express surrender.

What the old man said is indeed true. The cook does not distinguish between east, west, north and south. As long as you tell him how to cook, the cook can make the dish you want.

Segmenting and classifying products helps to accurately select the group of people, and subconsciously makes customers feel that there is something different.

For example, Silly Zhu, a Sichuan chef can cook for big leaders or make a living in a Sichuan restaurant, but now he is cooking big pot meals in the big cafeteria.

Li Xuewu once asked him about other cuisines, and he ate it that night, cooked by Shazhu.

This is not difficult for a cook.

Now the old man feels that Li Xuewu's question about what kind of clothes he can make is an insult to his profession and career, which is unforgivable.

“What a coincidence.”

Li Xuewu didn't feel embarrassed at all because he asked the wrong question. At this moment, he even said calmly: "I'm getting married."

The old man stared. He didn't hear any coincidence in Li Xuewu's words.

"hehe"

Li Xuewu also couldn't stand the old man. He felt that he must have been very unpopular when he was young.

"For getting married, my partner and I both want to wear some new clothes, including ones for the wedding."

The old man understood now that Li Xuewu was asking him to make clothes.

"Don't you feel unlucky?"

"What?"

Li Xuewu didn't quite understand the meaning of the old man's words, so he squinted his eyes and tilted his head to look at him.

The old man also tilted his head and said: "I am going to be in the coffin, I am still an old antique."

As he spoke, he deliberately imitated Li Xuewu's movements and raised his hands, indicating that he was old and untrustworthy.

"You can doubt my knowledge, but you can't question my beliefs."

Li Xuewu looked at the old man seriously and said: "Proletarian cadres don't believe in lies."

The old man raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Xuewu with some surprise. His already withered heart was now a little angry.

“It’s been a long time since anyone asked me to make clothes.”

Li Xuewu looked at the lamented old man and said jokingly: "I hope you don't care that my status is not high enough."

The old man looked at Li Xuewu with raised eyebrows and said with a strange expression: "Has anyone told you that the joke you told is not funny at all."

Sha Qizhi's eyes widened again when he heard these words, but when he saw the old man's gesture of coming over, he quickly turned around and turned his back to the living room.

Li Xuewu spread his hands helplessly and said, "Thank you for your honest remarks. It has played an extremely important role in helping me reflect on myself and make continuous progress."

The old man looked at Li Xuewu's expression, paused, and asked, "You're not joking, right?"

After asking, he saw Li Xuewu's unhappy expression, but he had no intention of repenting. He pointed to the package beside him and asked, "Then I don't have to be arrested for setting fire to my own home and burning my clothes?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "If you could have a good relationship with your neighbors, you wouldn't have so much trouble."

When the old man heard Li Xuewu's words, he knew that his business was over. He stood up, picked up his baggage, and asked Li Xuewu without any gratitude at all: "What if your neighbor comes to your house to complain and covets your heart?" OK, what would you do?”

"I'll shoot him"

"I can too~"

The old man nodded in agreement when he heard Li Xuewu's answer, but he still tapped Li Xuewu's waist and said, "It's a pity that I don't have a gun and I don't know how to use it."

After saying this, he walked to the door. When he opened the door, he turned to Li Xuewu and confessed: "My surname is Li, Li Guangnian. Go home this Sunday. You know where my home is."

Sha Qizhi looked at the old man who was walking steadily down the steps carrying a big baggage and heading out. He turned to look at Li Xuewu with some surprise.

"He calls this dying?"

"Haha, all old people are like this"

Li Xuewu didn't care when he heard Sha Qizhi's question. He replied with a smile, stood up and looked at the old man who had passed the door, then turned and went to his desk.

Li Xuewu planned to find a tailor who took on private work to make his wedding clothes and new clothes after marriage. As Li Xuewu said, today was indeed a coincidence.

Besides, this old man looks pretty awesome, at least the clothes he hangs to dry look pretty impressive.

Of course, Li Xuewu also asked Gu Ning if there was a suitable tailor, but Gu Ning said that she wore uniforms all year round, or finished products in clothing stores.

As for why Li Xuewu didn't ask, it was probably because his mother-in-law didn't know how to sew clothes.

After all, her mother-in-law is at work, unlike her mother. Li Xuewu’s clothes were all made by his mother when he was a child.

Including the family's cloth shoes, clothes, etc., all the cloth art is basically made by my mother.

The old lady's eyesight is not very good, otherwise she would still be doing manual work.

Sha Qizhi put away the tea sets on the coffee table, looked at Li Xuewu who was working and said with a smile: "I also think it's a pity to burn the good clothes, and they are still such good clothes."

Li Xuewu said without raising his head: "This is tradition, but he is not greedy."

Sha Qizhi didn't know much about this old man. Today was the first time he met him. Last time Li Xuewu went on a mission, he didn't take him with him.

"Because he has no family"

Li Xuewu paused his hand and said to Sha Qizhi: "It's a strange feeling to have a heart ashen as death, and it has the meaning of destruction."

Sha Qizhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Destroy it if you don't get it? It's a bit childish and ridiculous, but I seem to understand."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Absolutely."

After sighing, Li Xuewu seemed to have remembered something. He squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Sha Qizhi searchingly and asked, "Am I really boring when I'm joking?"

Shaqizhi: "..."

——

Destroying something if you can't get it is actually an extreme psychology of excessive possessiveness.

Possessiveness is a normal psychological phenomenon, and everyone has it.

But excessive possessiveness will lead to many problems and even some extreme ideas.

For example, for Li Guangnian, those clothes were his lifelong efforts and thoughts. Now that someone is trying to steal his thoughts, he wants to burn them.

Yu Haitang, who had suffered betrayal and indifference, felt the same way at this time.

When you like a flower, you just pick it; when you fall in love with a flower, you water it.

The meaning of this sentence is not only the difference between liking and loving, but also a person's inner activities in feelings.

When he likes a person, this good feeling is variable and uncertain; when he meets another better person, he is easily attracted to others.

The Li Xuewu that Yu Haitang first saw was only a standard of excellence in her heart, and did not have the capital to make her fall in love with him.

And falling in love with someone will make a person change from the bottom of his heart.

Love means giving for the other person willingly without hesitation.

Yu Haitang just felt that she fell in love with Li Xuewu, so she did not hesitate to use her publicity advantages to help Li Xuewu in his work, and even took a proactive attitude in his personal love life.

Yu Haitang felt that she had paid too much for Li Xuewu, including cutting off contact with male friends she had always been with.

But the weakness of human nature is that for any period of effort, there is a subconscious desire for feedback.

Once they don't get feedback, some people will fall into sadness, while others will take drastic actions.

For example: If you don't get your own love, destroy this love with your own hands.

Yu Haitang received no feedback from Li Xuewu and felt betrayed: This man didn't love her, but he fooled around with other women and sent her on a blind date, making her look like a clown in the workplace.

She wanted to take revenge on Li Xuewu for his betrayal and indifference to her.

"Is Dr. Gu Ning here?"

Yu Haitang found the hospital based on the information she found, and found Gu Ning's information and specific department of work on the hospital's bulletin board.

On the second floor of the hospital, on the corner outside the surgical office.

Gu Ning was a little stunned when he saw the girl in front of him who took the initiative to come to him.

"I don't seem to recognize you"

"Yes, this is also the first time I see you today."

While Gu Ning was sizing up Yu Haitang, Yu Haitang was also sizing up Gu Ning carefully, and mentally comparing Li Xuewu's fiancée in front of him with herself.

Compare heads...

Compared with appearance...

Than temperament...

Well, Yu Haitang is very angry now that Li Xuewu, a cold-blooded creature, has such a beautiful fiancée and still wants to fool around.

Now she wasn't nervous anymore, but she still felt aggrieved. She felt aggrieved for a good girl like herself and Gu Ning. She felt that Li Xuewu deserved her revenge and that he didn't deserve a girlfriend.

"My name is Yu Haitang"

Yu Haitang straightened her mind. The woman in front of her was as good as herself, so she didn't feel that she should be low-key or feel guilty for ruining a marriage.

Gu Ning looked at the girl standing in front of him, whose expression changed several times, and couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

"I work at the steel rolling mill radio station"

Yu Haitang introduced himself, and then said to Gu Ning: "Yes, I know Li Xuewu, and I know some of his unknown scandals."

Gu Ning's face was a little solemn, but he still looked at Yu Haitang and did not show any excitement or doubt as Yu Haitang predicted.

At this moment, Mu Hongyan also walked out of the office, because she had just heard a woman's voice asking for her sister-in-law.

After being out for a while, I didn't see Gu Ning go back, so I went out to take a look.

But before she could reach them, she heard the girl who had just come to see her sister-in-law say: "The whole factory knows that Li Xuewu had an affair with Qin Huairu from their courtyard, and promoted Qin Huairu to the director of the guest house. During this period, he also helped someone named Zhang Songying climb to the position of deputy director of the guest house."

Yu Haitang just looked at Gu Ning and asked in a slightly mocking tone: "You don't know how she crawls, do you?"

Mu Hongyan was stunned. She never expected that someone would come to tell Gu Ning this, or such shocking news.

Looking at the girl who spoke so confidently, Mu Hongyan didn't feel that the marriage between Li Xuewu and Gu Ning was blocking anyone's path, so there was no possibility of criticism.

Then, what this girl said may be true.

"Finished?"

Gu Ning's reaction was very dull. It was not hysterical as Yu Haitang expected, nor was it exciting that made her feel happy and refreshing. It was as if she was listening to a stranger's rumor.

In Yu Haitang's confusion, Gu Ning asked again: "Then what?"

"Then...then?"

Yu Haitang opened her mouth. She really didn't know how to deal with the current situation.

On the way here, she had already thought of countless ways to deal with Li Xuewu's fiancée's fierce reactions and doubts, but she just didn't expect Gu Ning to ask her this.

Gu Ning looked at Yu Haitang again, and then said: "If you finish talking, I will go back."

"wait wait wait"

Yu Haitang quickly stopped Gu Ning and asked suspiciously, "Are you Gu Ning? Li Xuewu's fiancée?"

"Who are you?"

Mu Hongyan had understood at this time, and walked over seriously, looked at Yu Haitang and asked, "Let me ask you, who are you? Who asked you to come here to find her? Why did you say these things?"

Yu Haitang is not afraid of the gentle and calm Gu Ning, but now she is a little timid towards this sudden appearance of a woman with a frown and a cold look on her face.

"I...I just can't stand it. Do you believe it or not?"

After saying this, he turned around and ran towards the stairs. Even though Mu Hongyan called a few times, there was no response and he quickly disappeared.

Mu Hongyan wanted to ask the security guard at the gate to stop the woman from the window, but Gu Ning stopped him.

"who is she?"

Mu Hongyan looked at Gu Ning and asked, "Is what she said true?"

Gu Ning's face turned a little pale. Anyone who heard such news on the eve of their wedding would not be able to accept it, and it was in their own work unit.

She is a little powerless now. This performance has less to do with the news about Li Xuewu and more to do with the words coming from a woman in Li Xuewu's unit. This is unfair to her.

Mu Hongyan looked around and saw that this was not the place to talk, so he helped his sister-in-law to the conference room.

There was no one here, so he put Gu Ning on the chair, squatted down and looked into Gu Ning's eyes and asked, "Tell me, is what she said true?"

Although Mu Hongyan and Gu Ning usually joke around like sisters, at the critical moment, Mu Hongyan is the eldest sister-in-law, and she shows no less severity than Ding Fengxia and Gu Haitao.

Gu Ning closed her eyes weakly. She didn't want to answer this question now, let alone face her sister-in-law's pressing steps.

"Bunny"

When Mu Hongyan saw Gu Ning like this, he knew that his sister-in-law had been bullied. He cursed through gritted teeth, then stood up and said, "I'll call Gu An and ask your brother to come back!"

"don't want!"

At this moment, Gu Ning suddenly opened her eyes, grabbed her sister-in-law, and shook her head pleadingly.

"Why not!"

Mu Hongyan said with some red eyes: "Let your brother take off his skin!"

Gu Ning pressed her forehead against her sister-in-law's hand and shook it. She was in no mood to explain, let alone the energy to say anything to her sister-in-law.

Seeing his sister-in-law's sad look, Mu Hongyan felt even more distressed. He knelt down again and said, "Then I'll tell my parents and let them handle it."

"No, sister-in-law"

Gu Ning sniffed, looked down at the hand held by his sister-in-law, and said in a dry voice: "I will handle my affairs myself."

Mu Hongyan looked at his stubborn sister-in-law and began to scold Li Xuewu's eight generations of ancestors in his heart.

What does it mean to go out and fool around when such a good girl doesn't want her?

Pooh!

My mother-in-law’s hard work was all fed to the dog!

Since marrying Gu An, this is the first time Mu Hongyan has seen his sister-in-law lose his temper like this, and it is also the first time he has seen his sister-in-law look so hurt and sad.

At home, even the father-in-law is not willing to show his face. Is he just being bullied by that brat?

But she knew Gu Ning's temperament very well. She was stubborn, stubborn, cold, and stubborn. These words were perfect for describing her sister-in-law.

She had been with Gu An for half a year, and it was only the second year of her marriage that she got along with Gu Ning.

Before, my sister-in-law had a tepid attitude towards me and couldn't even make a joke.

She didn't dare to provoke Gu Ning anymore, even though she hated Li Xuewu in her heart.

——

"get off work?"

"What are you doing?"

When Li Xuewu walked into the gate of the courtyard, he bumped into Yuyu. He was slightly startled when Yuyu greeted him proactively.

Silly Zhu's sister seems to have been rolling her eyes at him ever since she found out about her affairs with Yu Li and Qin Huairu.

It was as if he had failed her, and he disliked himself so much that he never took the initiative to say hello.

Today's abnormal performance made Li Xuewu ask a question in alarm.

In fact, He Yuyu had been waiting at the door for a while. After talking to Yu Haitang on the phone in the morning, his heart was pounding, and he always felt that something bad was going to happen.

She knows Yu Haitang too well, that is Changzi.

He can't hide what he says, he can't hold back any emotion, and he's easy to get into trouble when things happen. Tangtangtang vents on his own and is eventually brought down.

She wanted to call Li Xuewu in the morning and ask, but she didn't know Li Xuewu's phone number.

Furthermore, she would be very worried and guilty about telling Yu Haitang the news of Li Xuewu's marriage, which would have caused her to become like this. If it had any consequences, she would be very worried and guilty.

So I came back immediately after get off work and waited for Li Xuewu at the door.

If Yu Haitang really caused any trouble, or had a direct conflict with Li Xuewu, she would have apologized immediately.

But now Li Xuewu's expression doesn't look like he's in trouble, let alone a conflict with Yu Haitang.

"Um, I want to ask if you have seen Yu Haitang?"

"What the hell?"

Li Xuewu frowned slightly when he looked at He Yuyu, who had an unnatural expression, and asked, "Did she come to see me again?"

"without"

He Yuyu waved her hands in a panic. She had understood Li Xuewu's words and knew that nothing was wrong.

It's good if nothing happens, it's good if nothing happens.

I muttered a few words silently in my mind, exchanged words with Li Xuewu, gave a fake smile and went to the east courtyard.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows as he looked at Yu Yu's back and muttered, "Isn't it because Yu Haitang got sick from the torture?"

While thinking about it in his mind, if Yu Yu was really tortured and had mental problems because of this incident, Sha Zhu would be angry with him.

"Haha~"

Li Xuewu was also amused by his bizarre thoughts, and entered the hanging flower door with his bag in hand.

Because he was off duty at the security brigade, Li Xuewu came back relatively early, so the courtyard was not busy yet.

When he changed his clothes and went out to eat, the courtyard was the most lively.

Grandpa can now go out and walk with someone to support him. He is currently sitting on a chair in front of the house. Grandma must have put it there specially for him to come out and walk around.

Silly Zhu stood in front of the old man, telling him how to build his house and how to decorate the house with gestures in his hands.

Seeing Li Xuewu coming out of the backyard at this moment, Shazhu greeted him first: "You came just in time, we are talking about you."

"What are you talking about me? Are you praising me?"

Li Xuewu walked out of the Moon Gate with a smile. When he saw Qin Huairu washing clothes by the pool, he asked with a smile: "Why did you start washing clothes again?"

In the past, every time I saw Qin Huairu, I would wash clothes here, but since I became the director of the guest house, I have done less washing.

In recent days, I have seen her pick up this job again. Could it be that her family status has suddenly declined?

"Grandma's hand hurts"

Qin Huairu replied helplessly: "It's an old problem, and the troubles in the Spring and Autumn Period are serious."

Li Xuewu nodded clearly and looked at Shazhu.

Silly Zhu smiled and explained at this moment: "I was just going to ask you where you got your water boiling and heating equipment."

"You want a big investment?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, glanced at the uncle, and asked, "Did you lend him money?"

Yi Zhonghai smiled and did not answer the question. He borrowed it but couldn't say it.

After all, Shazhu is here, he is thirty years old again, so it is embarrassing to say it.

Silly Zhu and Li Xuewu did not pretend to be fake, and said with a smile: "I borrowed a huge sum of money from the uncle, and I will definitely overwhelm you in decorating this house."

"Okay, who asked me to live in a side room?"

Li Xuewu smiled as if he was admitting defeat, and said, "Go to the foundry and ask. I also paid for it at that time."

"Understood"

Silly Zhu nodded clearly, there was no need to elaborate on these things, he knew what to do.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Li Xuewu with a smile and asked, "You're getting married in the backyard?"

"No"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "I found a house near my partner."

The old man nodded clearly, indicating that he understood.

Silly Zhu smiled and teased: "I wonder how you look like a strict wife?"

"Like you"

Qin Huairu, who was standing by the pool, teased Silly Zhu and said, "Director Li is very capable of finding a house, but you, a descendant of your ancestors, still laugh at me~"

"Hey~!"

Silly Zhu shrugged his shoulders, unable to find a reason to refute, but still pointed to his house and said: "Now I am demolishing the old and replacing it with the new, I am capable of it, right?"

"Yes Yes Yes"

Qin Huairu hung the twisted clothes on the rope in the yard and said perfunctorily: "You are so capable. You can demolish the big tile-roofed house as soon as you ask."

"Hey!~~"

Silly Zhu nodded and said: "This is called ability."

Yi Zhonghai smiled as he watched Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu bickering. He turned to Li Xuewu and asked, "You won't live here anymore?"

"Neither"

Li Xuewu smiled and replied: "Like my elder brother and sister-in-law, I come back to live on Saturdays and Sundays, and then go back to live after catching up with work."

"This is good, this is good"

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "It's fate to spend more time with your parents."

Li Xuewu also saw the first master's thoughts. He was probably thinking about the problem of his own lack of a wife.

Li Xuewu really couldn't say anything about this matter. He pointed to the front yard and said to the uncle: "The food is ready in the front yard. You can have a rest."

"Okay, busy with you"

Yi Zhonghai and Li Xuewu nodded and accepted the greeting.

When Sha Zhu saw Li Xuewu walking over, he also said a few words to Qin Huairu, and then walked to the front yard.

When passing by the chicken pen, he saw Li Xuewu looking at him. Silly Zhu sighed with some strangeness: "I didn't expect this old man to really stand here."

Li Xuewu looked back at Shazhu and said nothing. He did not want to comment on Qin Jingru's behavior and current situation.

No matter whether he is rich or poor, he will not get involved with this kind of flower that is obvious and carries future consequences.

Women are not a necessity, you can have more or less as you wish, but the trouble is not within the scope of this consideration.

Silly Zhu was a little unhappy with this Qin Laoliu. After all, he had played tricks on him several times, and it was inevitable that he had some thoughts in his heart.

But it's not a bad idea, not to mention ridicule, not to mention derogatory, maybe it's an accident.

"Tonight I saw her sister struggling with the issue of rent and food expenses."

Silly Zhu followed Li Xuewu through the third door and said softly with a smile: "Grandma Qin Huairu's hand is not due to rheumatism, it was injured by hitting the table."

"So cruel?"

Li Xuewu looked at Silly Zhu with some surprise. If he was slapped, he was not surprised. What could Jia Zhang do to hurt himself?

"Hey, don't you know?"

Silly Zhu said with a bad smile: "She didn't want to hit someone, but she had to be able to do it. After all, she is Qin Huairu's sister."

Li Xuewu nodded clearly, indicating that he understood.

Silly Zhu said again: "This Aunt Jia is so cruel, she even beats herself, hehehehe."

He was very annoyed with the Jia Zhang family. The two families were neighbors, and they often quarreled with the old lady.

Especially because of Qin Huairu and Banggan, this old lady is no longer a good thing. If Silly Zhu had not been able to do anything to her, he would have made a bad move long ago.

Li Xuewu looked at Silly Zhu who smiled evilly and asked: "You didn't break the pestle here, did you?"

"You can pull him down"

Silly Zhu said with a smile: "I almost tore off the roof of their house because I was calculating food bills. How could I dare to enter the house?"

The two of them were talking, and when they were about to reach the Chuihua Gate, they bumped into the third uncle.

After that morning, these three uncles never mentioned Yan Jiecheng's transfer to Li Xuewu again, and they ignored Li Xuewu in the past few days.

Li Xuewu was also happy to not have this annoying fly. Today, when he bumped into someone, Li Xuewu got out of the way first and waited for him to pass first with Silly Zhu.

Yan Fugui looked at Li Xuewu, especially his behavior of letting him pass first, which made him feel heartbroken.

If you want to say that Li Xuewu is bad, you should keep being bad. The worse, the better. I ask you to respond.

But you treat me badly, and then act so polite and competent, aren't you making things difficult for me?

Li Xuewu didn't feel embarrassed. He raised his eyebrows when he saw the third uncle standing outside the door staring at him but not coming in.

Silly Zhu naturally remembered the jokes he made here a few days ago, and now he was winking and waiting to continue watching the fun.

If I were to say that the person in this courtyard who was the most interesting to bully and deceive others would have to be Li Xuewu.

He is now looking at these two people with a learning attitude, without any intention of trying to stop the fight or clear up the misunderstanding.

Yan Fugui also saw Li Xuewu's meaningful expression, talking nonsense, and crossed the threshold with steps.

When he was about to pass Li Xuewu, he suddenly turned around, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "The third uncle didn't offend you, did he?"

"Look what you said"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "If you have any opinions about me, please speak up. If I do something wrong, please criticize me."

Yan Fugui looked at Li Xuewu, he had already said this, how could he still talk about Li Xuewu, let alone make excuses based on the third uncle's pretensions.

Sometimes he really felt that Li Xuewu was a monster. He could fool him with his words before, but now he was making himself jump from one pit to another.

If he said something wrong, it would be his own fault, but now, he has become an unreasonable person.

Li Xuewu didn't have time to waste time with him, so he nodded, crossed the threshold and went to eat.

Silly Zhu smiled evilly at the third uncle who looked at him, and followed Li Xuewu through the Weeping Flower Gate.

Standing in the hanging flower door, you can see what is happening at the dining table in the front room. The lights are on at the moment, and a group of people are laughing and talking in the room.

This kind of atmosphere and unity is the fundamental reason why the surrounding neighbors dare not talk nonsense about Xiyuaner.

If you say something wrong, you will be beaten!

——

Gu Ning came home from get off work alone. Mu Hongyan asked Gu Ning to go home with her, but Gu Ning refused.

Today is Saturday, and Li Xuewu's family has an appointment tomorrow to come here to meet his mother and family.

At the same time, the two parents-in-law will also discuss their affairs before, after, and after marriage.

Although specific news had been conveyed to both families through Li Xuewu and Gu Ning, marriage was a major event and could not be decided after just one meeting.

At least twice.

This may be Gu Ning's last insistence, because according to Li Xuewu, he will be on a business trip next week, so it would be best to go get the certificate on Monday so that he can make arrangements.

Meeting on Sunday and getting the certificate on Monday should have been a happy two days, but Gu Ning felt very heavy today.

Zhou Yamei noticed Gu Ning when he entered the house, but did not immediately provide guidance.

This was also the case a few days ago. Gu Ning returned to her parents' home the day after Li Xuewu arrived, and she was in this state after returning.

Although he later returned to normal, Zhou Yamei felt that Gu Ning's heartache still hadn't gone away.

After arranging for her son and Gu Ning to wash their hands and have a meal, Zhou Yamei looked at the distraught Gu Ning. After cleaning up the kitchen, Zhou Yamei offered to help Gu Ning with psychological therapy.

"Sister Zhou"

Gu Ning said a little tiredly: "How about another day, I'm a little tired today."

Zhou Yamei did not deny the proposal. She walked to Gu Ning and said softly: "Sometimes the difficulty is there. If you avoid it, it will only increase the pain. Getting past it is the only way to solve the pain."

Gu Ning looked into Zhou Yamei's eyes and saw sincerity and worry, and couldn't help but nodded.

Zhou Yamei sent her son upstairs, let Gu Ning lie on the sofa in the living room, closed the curtains, dimmed the lights, and sat on the single sofa next to Gu Ning.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Gu Ning was lying on the sofa with her eyes closed, her calves raised by pillows. Her posture was very comfortable, but she felt sad.

Zhou Yamei could see Gu Ning's inner emotional changes through her expression. In front of her, Li Xuewu, like Gu Ning, had no intention of hiding or acting.

"is it him?"

Seeing that Gu Ning didn't answer for a long time, Zhou Yamei asked what she was thinking.

This time, without waiting for Gu Ning to nod or shake his head, he continued to ask: "Is it related to another woman?"

Gu Ning answered Zhou Yamei's words with silence. She didn't know how to answer Zhou Yamei.

Because she knew, she knew a lot about Li Xuewu, more than what Zhou Yamei had thought of, more than what her sister-in-law had heard, and more than what Yu Haitang had said.

Gu Ning is not a cold-blooded person, she is just not good at expressing emotions, and she is very resistant to such complex emotional relationships and changes between people.

She admitted that she was very fragile and cowardly. She was afraid that she would be hurt, afraid that she would suffer setbacks in her personal relationship, and even more afraid that she, who was already troublesome, would bring more trouble to her family.

Yes, in Mu Hongyan's eyes, she was the apple of the Gu family's eye and the favorite of her parents, but this was exactly Gu Ning's heartache, the heavy love that Gu Ning was eager to get rid of.

The more her parents care about her, the more she can think of the trouble she caused her parents when she was a child.

She doesn't want her parents to worry about her anymore.

This was the result of her parents' heart-to-heart talk after she had a relationship with that person from the Wei family last time.

She didn't know what love looked like at that time, maybe it was like in Jane Eyre, maybe it was like in revolutionary stories.

But after her parents helped her sort out her emotional relationships based on reality and real interests, her emotional concepts changed dramatically.

This was also the reason why she still chose Li Xuewu after her father told her so many things about Li Xuewu on the second floor that day.

This was also the reason why he and Li Xuewu made such an agreement in the hotel.

Gu Haitao blamed himself. He felt that he owed too much to his daughter and wanted her daughter to have a good life, so he inexplicably caused pressure and harm to Gu Ning.

Now he is very cautious when discussing emotional issues with his daughter, and he doesn't dare to touch his daughter's emotional forbidden area, let alone affect her emotional thoughts.

I'm really afraid that one day Gu Ning's emotional world will collapse, and then he will really be an ice sculpture.

"Actually, I also like Li Xuewu."

Zhou Yamei sat next to Gu Ning and said calmly: "It's not surprising that he has a woman who likes me."

After saying this, he looked down at Gu Ning, who had opened his eyes and looked over, and said, "I believe you are not surprised at all."
