After Jiaojiao got pregnant, her husband who died in the war came back

Chapter 114: Can’t eat grapes and say sour grapes

Lu Beixiao was indeed a little late when he arrived. Even Song Huiyin couldn't help but ask, "Why haven't the people from the Lu family arrived yet?"

Thinking of the last time they parted on bad terms, Meng Nianrui was unsure and could only perfunctorily say, "Maybe they were delayed on the way. They should be almost there."

Song Huiyin looked worried and nodded.

at the same time.

Several girls who had tried to court Lu Beixiao but were rejected came specially to watch the fun.

"He doesn't want so many girls, but he wants to marry Meng Nianrui who just got divorced. What is he thinking?"

Shi Wanqiu was already irritated by Meng Nianrui, so she said sarcastically, "After all, she is a married woman, so she must have some special qualities. You little girls naturally don't understand."

"You mean she..."

Halfway through his words, the man gave the person next to him a meaningful look, sneered and said, "Then we really can't compete."

After her reminder, others also reacted.

"She wouldn't offer herself to be my wife, would she? How shameless."

"In that case, Lu Beixiao may not be willing to marry her. Seeing that he hasn't made any move yet, could it be that he regrets it?"

After they said this, others followed suit.

"The Lu family regrets it? Is this true?"

Xie Shuyao was sitting behind these girls at this time, and she was speechless listening to them ruining Meng Nianrui's reputation.

But in this situation, she couldn't say anything directly, so she could only imitate their sarcastic manners and said in a pinched voice:

"Oh my, why is there such a sour smell in the air? Could it be that someone is carrying vinegar with him? It's choking me to death."

Her voice was neither loud nor soft, just loud enough for the people in front to hear.

They thought Xie Shuyao's words were strange and turned around to look at her.

Seeing that Xie Shuyao continued her performance, she pulled Song Yinyin over and fed her a grape, asking, "What does it taste like?"

Song Yinyin didn't understand, but she realized that her young lady was going to do something, so she answered cooperatively, "Sweet."

Xie Shuyao nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, picked a grape and threw it into her mouth, then asked, "Then do you know what grapes that you can't eat taste like?"

Song Yinyin didn't react and shook her head honestly.

Xie Shuyao suddenly laughed, "It's sour. If you can't eat the grapes, you say they're sour. Things that you can't get are bad. This is jealousy."

When the word "jealousy" is mentioned, many people identify with it.

The first person to react was Shi Wanqiu. She gave Xie Shuyao a disgusted look and said in a powder keg tone: "Who are you? Stop chattering here and go to the side."

Xie Shuyao was quite famous in the capital, but few people had seen her. Shi Wanqiu thought she was a girl from a small family and spoke to her rudely.

They thought Xie Shuyao could be scared by them, but what she said next almost choked them to death.

"She's a noble lady, but she's even more annoying than the gossipy woman at the corner of the alley. She's spreading rumors like this on someone else's territory. Her face is thicker than a city wall."

Shi Wanqiu's face turned red with anger. She pointed at her and wanted to curse her: "You..."

Before he could finish his words, everyone's attention was suddenly attracted by the sound of suona, gongs and drums outside.

I saw Lu Beixiao riding a tall horse, followed by dozens of carriages full of goods.

Gold, silver, jewelry, jade, agate, and a whole truck of Shu brocade alone.

As for other items, there are countless jade articles, cakes and pastries, fine wines, dried fruits, chicken, duck, fish, ginseng, abalone and other seafood.

Finally, there is a pair of fat and lively geese.

Such a big event will take some time, so it’s not surprising to be a little late.
