After four years of marriage, the military officer husband came back

Chapter 68 Xiao Wu Didn't Like He Shanshan

The day before yesterday, when He Shanshan and Xiao Wu went on a blind date, both families were in a happy mood and had a great time chatting. She also felt that she had performed very well.

The night before yesterday, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep well the whole night. She thought that they would definitely send her a lot of milk money, and she had already thought about how to use the milk money:

The first thing to do is to buy a better bicycle than Xia Qingning’s. Then I’ll see if that little girl can continue to show off in front of me.

Then buy a few skirts that are prettier than the ones Mai Miao is wearing. She got angry when she thought of this. That damn girl Mai Miao is not as pretty as herself. She just dressed up a bit and everyone said she became prettier. So she had to dress up too and then we would see who is prettier.

The next step is to buy a watch, preferably one imported from abroad. It will look so fashionable when worn, making those young girls and wives envious.

Also, also, I have to buy a gold necklace. After all, Xiao Wu’s mother wears one, so I can’t be without one.

Thinking of this, she felt happy all night, as if everything was within her reach.

Just as she had thought, the matchmaker came to her house again early yesterday morning, the day after the wedding.

He Shanshan and her mother Wang Mingfang were extremely happy, thinking that the matchmaker came to discuss engagement, but they never expected that the matchmaker did not mention a word about engagement, and instead said hesitantly that she would introduce another partner to her!

Upon hearing this, both mother and daughter were dumbfounded. Although He Shanshan said that Xiao Wu was "okay", she was actually very satisfied with him. Not only was he good-looking, but his mother's dress was even more eye-catching. You know, it was rare to see people wearing gold and silver in that era.

Seeing that the marriage fell through, He Shanshan was very unwilling to accept it and kept asking what was going on with Xiao Wu.

In the end, the matchmaker was left with no choice but to tell the truth: Xiao Wu didn't like her.

Wang Mingfang immediately asked: Weren't we having a good chat at that time? Why didn't you like him?

The matchmaker said, "We are all people of honor. The other party just didn't express his attitude right away out of politeness. I'm afraid they will misunderstand me when I go back, so I came here quickly to make things clear, so as not to delay He Shanshan's other good marriage."

How should I describe how He Shanshan felt when she heard these words?

It is probably just like in the real world, where you buy a two-dollar lottery ticket and imagine winning 50 million. You have already thought about how to spend it: buying a villa, a Ferrari, luxury bags... You have a sweet dream all night, but then you find out that you didn’t win the lottery!

He Shanshan was so angry that she smashed pots and bowls at home, and kept cursing Xiao Wu for being blind and not even liking her. She also told the matchmaker that if Xiao Wu liked someone in the future, he must tell her, because she wanted to see how the person he liked was better than her.

After hearing what He Shanshan said, the matchmaker seemed to be hesitant to speak. She originally planned to say something, but it was obvious that she was angry. Thinking that less trouble is better, she did not bring it up again.

He Shanshan was in a bad mood the whole day and was displeased with everyone, so when Xia Qingning returned home at around four o'clock in the afternoon, she heard her loudly scolding her little niece Yingying, saying that her voice was too loud and disturbed her.

Wang Mingfang, who was standing nearby, knew that He Shanshan was upset, so she let her vent her anger by scolding her granddaughter.

He Shanshan was cursing enthusiastically when she saw Xia Qingning walk into the yard. She wanted to find fault with her and scold her, but after seeing Lu Jingzhe behind her, she immediately gave up the idea.

She didn't dare to act rashly in front of him. She had not forgotten the last time he almost twisted her hand off. She could only shut up in disappointment and go back to her room.

When Wang Mingfang saw Xia Qingning and the others coming back, she immediately came over to greet them, thanking them for their hard work while helping them pick up their belongings.

Although Lu Jingzhe and Xia Qingning didn't pay much attention to her, she still went to make tea for them with a smile.

Seeing the irritable He Shanshan, Xia Qingning understood in her heart that the marriage between her and Xiao Wu had not taken place. Although she had expected this, now that the fact had been verified, the corners of her lips unconsciously rose.

After returning to the room, she tidied it up. Because the weather was hot, the flowers she had put in when she left had wilted. She put them away and was about to take them out to throw them away when she saw Mai Miao walk in happily.

"Qingning, you're finally back." Mai Miao said. As soon as she heard that Xia Qingning was back, she came to find her immediately.

Mai Miao was wearing the white dress that Xia Qingning had altered for her last time today. She had a good figure and the waist of the dress was well-fitting, so she looked really beautiful in it.

She also listened to Xia Qingning and didn't slack off and put on makeup. After all, who doesn't want to look beautiful?

"Well, what do you want to talk to me about?" Xia Qingning asked, seeing that she was a little anxious.

Mai Miao took out five dollars from his pocket with a smile and handed it to Xia Qingning:

"I'll get you the money."

Xia Qingning looked at the money she handed over and was a little confused, because she had never lent her money before.

Seeing her puzzled expression, Mai Miao smiled and said:

"How can I really want such a beautiful skirt from you for nothing? You can keep the money first. I will give you the remaining fifteen dollars after I get my salary."

Xia Qingning raised her hand and pushed the money back: "No need, it's already been agreed, I'll give it to you." Fearing that she would feel burdened, she explained:

"You know, those scraps of cloth are worthless."

Mai Miao said that the cloth was not valuable, but making clothes was very hard work. The two of them refused for a while, and Xia Qingning couldn't resist her, so she symbolically charged two yuan as labor fee and said that she would forget about the rest.

Mai Miao felt that he had taken great advantage of Xia Qingning and was very embarrassed.

After talking about the money, Mai Miao did not go back immediately. Knowing that Xia Qingning's feet were sore from walking, he volunteered to help her throw away the garbage, and then came back to chat with her.

"How was it going back home? Was it fun?" Mai Miao said, and then he noticed that Xia Qingning's eyes were red, and asked anxiously:

"Have you cried?" After asking, he suddenly remembered that the people in Xia Qingning's hometown all thought that she married Lu Lidong, and asked with sudden realization:

"Is it because you and Brother Jingzhe are going back that those people in your village are talking nonsense?"

Seeing her anxious look, Xia Qingning explained:

"No, but when I left, I felt a little reluctant to leave my mom and the others."

"Oh, I see." Mai Miao felt relieved after hearing this and continued:

"With Brother Jingzhe here, I don't think they dare to bully you." Knowing that mentioning this might make Xia Qingning sad again, he quickly changed the subject:

"Qing Ning, you don't know, when I was dressed up to go to work today, the people in our commune didn't recognize me, so I played along and pretended to be a leader who came to inspect the work, and teased them, hahahaha... you don't know how funny the scene was."

At this time, He Shanshan just walked out of the room and saw Mai Miao lying on the ground and talking to Xia Qingning's ear, and then she burst into laughter.

She was petty to begin with, and now she was in a sensitive period, so she naturally thought that they were laughing at Xiao Wu for not liking her. Her face immediately fell, and she took a few steps towards the two of them, loudly questioning:

"what are you guys saying?"

Suddenly interrupted by He Shanshan's scolding, Xia Qingning and Mai Miao both looked up at her with dissatisfaction on their faces.

"What do you care what we say? We have our own mouths, so we can say whatever we want." Mai Miao said like he was reciting a tongue twister.

She and He Shanshan had disliked each other for so many years, so naturally she didn't have a good tone to speak to her.

Her words and tone made He Shanshan more convinced that they were gossiping about her behind her back. Her face turned red with anger and she continued to question:

"What were you two laughing at just now? What's so funny?"

Xia Qingning knew why she was angry. Mai Miao, who was standing by, thought she was looking for trouble again, so she retorted:

"That's funny. Our faces are our own. We can laugh whenever we want. What's it to you?"

He Shanshan already felt ashamed for not being liked by others, and now she was laughed at by the two people she hated the most. Her emotions got out of control and she said without thinking:

"Don't think I don't know. You are just laughing at me behind my back. That fool Xiao Wu didn't like me. He is blind..."

"Ah?" Mai Miao suddenly understood what she said, but he did not feel any sympathy for He Shanshan. He pretended to be surprised and asked:

"You said that your date didn't like you?"

After hearing this, He Shanshan realized that they didn't know yet. She was just regretting that she thought too much and spoke too quickly when she heard Mai Miao continue:

"Haha, then he really is..." At this point, Mai Miao deliberately paused, and then said with approval:

"You have great vision." After saying that, he looked at Xia Qingning again and asked with a wink:

"Right, Lemon?"

"Yeah." Xia Qingning smiled and gave a positive answer cooperatively.

"You guys..." Seeing the two of them singing the same tune, He Shanshan was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.

Being attacked like this, she would definitely fight back. Knowing that she was indeed not as good-looking as Xia Qingning, she pointed her spearhead directly at Mai Miao and said sarcastically:

"What are you so proud of? If I don't like you, how can I like you? Haha... You didn't even look at yourself and washed your face. How dare you stand here and watch others laugh at you?"

As soon as she finished saying this, she saw the matchmaker who was arranging a marriage for her walk into the yard from the alley.

I thought: Why is she here again? Did Xiao Wu change his mind and want to be with me again?

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously, but the next second, her smile froze on her face, because she saw that the matchmaker walked directly into the door of Mai Miao's house.
