MTL - It’s a Stepmother, Not a Sister [70s]-Chapter 54 Honest man
With a few bang bang bang, Xue Li quickly ran up the stairs, as if someone was chasing her, her heavy footsteps drowned out the sound of the sewing machine at home.
Putting open the door, Xue Li patted her chest, still a little frightened.
Mother Xue who was sitting in front of the sewing machine frowned and raised her head, looking at her with disgust: "What happened to you?"
Xue Li calmed her breath, "Mom, I met Jiang Shuangling's husband today, it really surprised me, he..."
Xue Li didn't know what words to use to describe the handsome officer she saw today.
"He..."
She racked her brains to find the vocabulary, but it seemed like she was stuck, she scratched her chin, and suddenly remembered the look of the other party looking at the tree under the tree, and she was full of excitement .
"A little scary."
Mother Xue was stunned: "??"
She looked at her daughter in astonishment. She didn't expect Xue Li to hold back for a long time before she actually said such a sentence.
"I wonder if Jiang Mei will be bullied?" Xue Li muttered in a trance, although the man is handsome, but the other party is tall and gives a strong sense of oppression, he His expression was cold and hard, and at first glance, he knew that he was not very easy to get along with.
Just finishing all the plots in her mind, she sighed, "Alas, this child also has a hard time."
Xue Li's expression was weird: "...Actually I'm not sure."
"Her husband is very handsome, several times more handsome than the son of the Xu family next door, and he is young, so he is a perfect match to stand beside her..."
Mother Xue: "? Can there be a man better than the son of the Xu family? Are you lame?"
Xue Li couldn't help laughing and crying: "Mom, don't talk nonsense."
"Then he's good-looking, why do you say he's scary."
"Is that a bad temper? Cursing? Is he bad for Xiao Jiang?"
"...No." Xue Li shook her head, she couldn't say why, "It's just not much."
Mother Xue sipped on the head of the line, "Men, it's better to talk less, do practical things, you will find someone with less talk in the future..."
Xue Li: "Is that so?"
Mother Xue: "Of course, those second-rates like to talk about little girls the most. They don't talk much, but they are honest."
"Ordinary ordinary girls like to marry such honest people who talk less. You have never been in a relationship, so you don't understand." Mother Xue said in a familiar tone.
Jiang Mei's husband...is he honest?
Xue Li: "…"
Xue Li nodded her head in confusion and was stunned, recalling the pictures she saw in Ronggang No. 1 Factory, the other party stood under the plane tree, and it seemed that there were indeed many girls from the factory surrounding discuss him.
Because they all like this kind of good-looking honest people?
Xue Li: "…"
—Am I the only one who likes to talk more?
I'm not like everyone.
Xue Li held her cheeks and pondered for a while, and decided to add an honest man with few words to her story.
The car stopped in the family courtyard, Jiang Shuangling and Qi Heng got out of the car, Qi Heng picked up the fat duck, which was carefully selected by Jiang Shuangling. Straw rope tied, hanging upside down and stretched his neck.
Jiang Shuangling swallowed and suddenly wanted to eat duck neck.
"Quack..." The big fat duck barked innocently.
Qi Heng carried the duck and walked steadily forward. He held everything, only Jiang Shuangling followed behind with empty hands.
Entering the yard of the house, Jiang Shuangling asked Qi Heng to put things outside, with a very natural expression: "You kill the ducks outside first, I will heat the hot water, I will bring a knife... "
After finishing speaking, Jiang Shuangling stepped into the door.
Qi Heng put things in the corner of the room and followed through the door.
Seeing this, Jiang Shuangling quickly pushed him on the chest, "Didn't I tell you to wait outside, kill the duck before coming in."
Qi Heng raised his eyebrows: "It's already been killed."
Jiang Shuangling showed an expression of disbelief. She put her hand on the door rail, glanced out, and saw the big white duck whose legs were turned over to the west.
It has been wiped cleanly on its neck, and it has been put in a posture that is very unbearable to look directly at. The neck is stuck in the basin in a twisted posture, and duck blood flows into the porcelain bowl.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
You are too fast.
Qi Heng was empty-handed and did not answer.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
This dog man carries a controlled knife with him.
She miscalculated the strength of the enemy.
But it's alright, "Then you kill the duck and just leave it alone? It's just right, you pluck all the duck feathers for me first, then go take a bath and enter the house."
Qi Heng: "I want to go back to the room first."
"Then you go take a shower before entering the room."
"I'm going to the room to get my clothes."
Jiang Shuangling exaggeratedly showed a look of disgust, "You stand still, you are too embarrassed to enter the room, wait, your daughter-in-law, I will prepare it for you."
"You just killed the duck, and now there is a duck smell all over your body. You smell it. You smell it.
Qi Heng suddenly grabbed Jiang Shuangling's wrist and sniffed her body: "...you have it too."
"Speak nonsense, the girl's house is fragrant." Jiang Shuangling said shamelessly, "You come in and smell it, what you smell is the outside smell, not from me. of."
She closed the door and let the dog man down to smell her wrist. She had never touched the big white duck, so how could she smell it.
"Do you smell it now?"
Qi Heng shook his head: "No."
Jiang Shuangling smiled: "That's right, you pluck the duck feathers."
Qi Heng suddenly put his hand by Jiang Shuangling's nose, "You smell it, I don't have it either."
Jiang Shuangling took a sniff and found that there was really no smell, not even a bit of sweat, but a faint fragrance.
Smells cleaner than her, and she smells a little paint.
—This sullen sullen must have taken a shower and changed her clothes before coming to see her.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
"You have been holding the duck for so long, have you washed your hands?"
Qi Heng said lightly, "After washing your hands, didn't you smell the soap?"
Jiang Shuangling: "??"
In the seconds she entered the room, she completed the complete set of killing the duck and washing her hands, without making any sound. This perfect crime scene and crime time are disrespectful to the duck.
"Can I go back to my room now?"
She was thinking about it, the dog man in front of her was deliberately teasing her.
She's broken now, even if she is seen, what can she do?
Agree not to hit women.
Qi Heng nodded, turned and walked into the room. Jiang Shuangling originally wanted to hide in the kitchen, but then she thought: A true warrior dares to face the bleak life, dare to face the dripping blood.
Go on.
Qi Heng pushed open the door of the room, Jiang Shuangling followed behind him, and the situation in the room was immediately reflected in their eyes.
Besides is a messy table, the table has been moved out of a strange angle, paint brushes and drawing papers are scattered on the table, and a few have fallen to the ground, and there is a paper ball in the corner .
…
No need to describe too much, there is a kind of kennel atmosphere that belongs to the swinging artist.
Jiang Shuangling defended herself in her heart: I planned to clean up today...
Only blame the other party for coming back at the wrong time.
Jiang Shuangling looked at Qi Heng's face on tiptoe, and found that the other party still had that calm dog expression.
Yes, the other party is someone who has seen the big scene.
Qi Heng strode into the room, picked up the paper ball on the ground, opened it, and found that it was the piece of paper he left when he left, near his name, there appeared A cartoon villain.
The vivid little guy looked at him with his teeth and claws.
Qi Heng lowered his eyes, the corners of his mouth pursed slightly, and he laughed silently.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
What are you laughing at? She was a little embarrassed by the other party's laugh.
"I told you to come in later, you are stupid and tall, and your daughter-in-law doesn't listen to what your daughter-in-law says. The clothes are already made for you, but they are a little wrinkled. You wait for me for a while. It's done—" Jiang Shuangling felt embarrassed when she saw the lump on the bed, "Go out and pluck the duck feathers, I'll fix it later."
She motioned to Qi Heng to make way and make room for her to clean up the room.
Qi Heng smiled and shook his head, looked at her tenderly, and said softly: "I'm here—"
When Jiang Shuangling came out of the room, she couldn't help but look back, "..."
I didn't expect that the person who was finally sent out of the room was herself.
She walked into the room and was about to wash and fold vegetables, but just opened the water tank, but found that the person in the reflection on the water was smiling.
Jiang Shuangling deliberately stirred the water to create ripples, and scooped a few spoonfuls of water into the basin.
At this time, Sister-in-law Song came to her suddenly. Jiang Shuangling put down her things and talked to Sister-in-law Song outside the yard.
"Your family is back?"
Jiang Shuangling nodded: "I just came back today."
"I happened to be passing by, and I came to ask when I heard about it. By the way, the people over there said that they caught a lot of fish today, and this bucket was sent to the family home. Xiao Zhang has something to do Go, let me take it, come, take one, just celebrate the return of Battalion Commander Qi, and help me lighten the burden."
"Okay, then I'll be welcome." Jiang Shuangling chose a medium-sized crucian carp from among them. Sister-in-law Song on the side saw it, she couldn't see it, and she took the biggest one. that one for her.
"Your family has a happy event today, I think this is the only one. Take it. It's so heavy that we don't bother to take it."
Sister Song tied a knot with dry straw three or two times, and gave her the fish hanging.
Jiang Shuangling took the fish from the other party's hand and smiled: "Thank you."
"No thanks, I also have to thank you for helping me lighten my load."
Sister Song smiled and waved her hand.
"What's wrong? What are you doing?" Wang Xueshu saw the situation outside the yard next door, and squeaked outside curiously.
Sister Song put her mouth into the bucket: "What about the fish, do you want one?"
Wang Xueshu immediately refused: "No, you can spare me, I will burn fish."
Sister Song and Jiang Shuangling laughed.
“It’s easy to make fish, just add some green onion, **** and garlic, put it in the pot and steam it for a while.”
"No, no, I wouldn't make a sound if I had known." Wang Xueshu ran home as if hiding.
Sister Song shook her head, "It's so easy to make a order, why doesn't she want to learn it?"
Jiang Shuangling smiled and did not answer.
Sister Song's cooking skills are well-known in their family's courtyard, and Wang Xueshu, who dances next door, is eager to go on a diet every day.
"Okay, I'll go first."
"Walk slowly."
Sister Song sent off, Jiang Shuangling carried the fish in her hand into the house, she just put the fish down in the kitchen, and found that someone had come here before.
Because the plucked duck has appeared neatly in the kitchen.
Jiang Shuangling: "????"
She blinked, went to the bathroom to check, and found clues.
Jiang Shuangling couldn't help but looked down at her watch. She and Sister-in-law Song just talked for about ten minutes.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shuangling rushed to the room of the two non-stop, the door was unlocked, she pushed the door open, and happened to see the back of Qi Heng... who was newly dressed.
Qi Heng turned around at this time, the white shirt had not yet been buttoned, the thin waist went up, the loose collar revealed a well-defined chest and collarbone, slender hands buckle on it.
Jiang Shuangling: “…”
She didn't know if she came at the right time or not.
