Chapter 244 Slap in the face
Chapter 244 Slap in the face
Before Granny Dou could say anything, Grandpa Xie glanced at the few people and slammed the table and said, "It's okay. There's enough room for a few more people."
As he said that, he looked at Xie Yu meaningfully again. Xie Yu met his gaze and couldn't help but frowned slightly. Why did he feel like there was something in the old man's eyes?
So, at the enthusiastic invitation of Granny Dou and Grandpa Xie, Xia Mo and his friends stayed at Xie's house that night, saving even the money for staying in an inn.
The next day, after having breakfast, they stayed for a while and then said goodbye to Grandma Dou and the others.
As soon as he left Xie's house, Yuger's back, which had been straight all morning, suddenly relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he also understood that this was all his own problem. Master Xie knew nothing, and he was the only one who was imagining things. Ugh~
Next time, next time he will definitely act more naturally, Yu Ge'er secretly clenched his fists. After all, even if they couldn't develop into a relationship, it would be nice to make friends with such an outstanding person.
When they returned to Liujia Village, the two mothers saw that their daughters and brothers had brought them gifts, and their hearts softened instantly. They had no doubts at all about their going to the night market.
Seeing this, Liu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief silently, and smiled at Xia Mo and Yu Ge'er.
Just when they thought the matter was over, the troublemaker Zhao Xier jumped out to cause trouble again.
Here's the thing.
Last night, Zhao Xier woke up in a daze in the middle of the night and suddenly found that Gu Wenlang was missing. At first she thought he had gotten up to go to the bathroom, but after waiting and waiting, she found that he had not come back. She couldn't help but worry, so she got up to check.
It would have been fine if I hadn't looked, but once I did, I got even more panicked. Such a big person was actually missing!
So, the house, which was quiet a moment ago, completely exploded after it was discovered that no one was there.
Zhao Xier immediately got very angry, "What are you all doing? My son-in-law is such a big man, and he just disappeared like that! Huh? Speak up!"
The servants who were scolded were all silent, with their heads hung and not saying a word, almost holding their breath.
Ping-Pong-Clang——
Seeing that none of them said anything, Zhao Xier started smashing things randomly until she was out of breath. Then she yelled at the servants, "What are you still standing there for? Go find it quickly!"
"Yes!" The servants scattered and quickly fled the low-pressure scene to avoid being affected.
Zhao Xier looked at the debris on the ground, and the misery of her previous life reappeared before her eyes. No! No matter what, she would not let him go. Since she was reborn, she would live better than anyone else!
Gu Wenlang, you can only be mine, Zhao Xier's, no one can take you away from me...
Zhao Xier's eyes were red and her hands were clenched until they turned white.
About an hour later, the Zhao family's servants, who had searched the entire city, finally found Gu Wenlang. However, seeing their son-in-law with a black eye and a swollen face after being beaten, the servants were all horrified.
Such a son-in-law is a hot potato. Whoever helps him will be in trouble. After all, they dare not imagine the scene of the young lady going crazy again.
But sticking your head out and shrinking your head are both like a knife. Sooner or later, they will have to take the people back. Alas...
As expected, when the servants carried the man back, Zhao Xier saw Gu Wenlang, whose face was bruised and swollen. Her eyes suddenly turned red with anger, and she screamed. She threw herself forward and wanted to touch Gu Wenlang's face but she didn't dare to.
"Ah! What on earth is going on?!" She turned around and angrily questioned the servant, then turned back and called out to the man, "Gu Lang, Gu Wenlang, you can't be in any trouble!!"
The servant shook his head repeatedly and said tremblingly: "Miss, when we found the son-in-law, he was already like this."
Zhao Xier's chest was heaving with anger. "Go check it out for me. He dared to treat my Gu Lang like this. I will make him regret coming into this world!"
"Yes, yes." After hearing this, the man quickly put on some oil on his feet and ran away quickly.
After Zhao Xier scolded this one, she looked at the unconscious Gu Wenlang with heartache, then glared at the others, "Where's the doctor?!"
"Miss, don't worry. We've sent someone to look for her." Xiang'er stepped forward and replied. After all, she was Zhao Xier's maid, so she was a little braver than the others.
When Zhao Xier heard this, her brows were furrowed and the anger on her face had not disappeared, but she was a little calmer after all.
"Go get a basin of hot water."
"Yes." Xiang'er obeyed the order and walked out quickly.
"Gu Lang, what is going on? What should I do if something happens to you..." Zhao Xier murmured while holding Gu Wenlang's hand, but unfortunately the person on the bed would not answer her.
After a while, she waved away the others and began to help Gu Wenlang take off his coat.
As the outer robe was untied, a very ordinary wooden comb fell out. Zhao Xier was surprised, picked it up and looked at it, and was deeply moved.
"Did you make this for me?" It was obvious that the comb was made by himself. The quality was very ordinary and the teeth were of different sizes.
But whenever she thought that this was something Gu Lang did secretly for her, Zhao Xier's heart felt like it was filled with honey, and the look she gave Gu Wenlang became even softer.
At this time, Xiang'er, who came back from fetching water, saw that her young lady had a sweet face, as if she had become a different person. She took a broken comb and stroked it carefully, and couldn't help but be surprised.
But on second thought, there is only one origin of this comb that her young lady wants so much, and that is...
"Miss, is this the comb your brother-in-law made for you personally?" Xiang'er asked as she put the basin away.
Zhao Xier said "hmm" with a smile on her face, "Yes, it was Gu Lang who did it for me..." Before she could finish the word "of", her voice stopped abruptly, as if it was stuck.
Xiang'er looked over in confusion and saw that her young lady's expression changed instantly, the smile froze on her face, and a terrible storm was gathering in her eyes.
Xiang'er noticed something was wrong and walked over to ask carefully, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"Liu Yingying!" Zhao Xier's eyes were sinister and she gritted her teeth, as each word came out from between her lips.
"Ah? What?" Xiang'er didn't understand.
The next moment, Zhao Xier stood up suddenly and threw the wooden comb in her hand to the ground, making a loud noise.
Xiang'er's back stiffened when she saw this, and she dared not breathe. She kept guessing in her mind, is there something wrong with this comb? Is it not a gift from the son-in-law?
Xiang'er guessed correctly. This comb was indeed not given to her daughter, but to another woman.
If Zhao Xier hadn’t seen Liu Yingying’s name engraved on the back, she would have almost thought that the vow of lifelong love on the front was for her!
This was undoubtedly a slap in Zhao Xier's face. She thought she had got him, but he still couldn't forget that bitch!
Wait, she has never seen this thing before...
Thinking of this, Zhao Xier suddenly turned her head and looked at Gu Wenlang with anger in her eyes.
