After the evil sister took over, all the best went crazy
Chapter 58 Helped him fight for 3 years
“Mom, it’s useless.
He said I was scary and if it hadn't been daytime, he would have thought he had seen a ghost.
She also said that when I opened my mouth to speak, the powder on my face would fall down..."
Mrs. Qiao used to think that her daughter looked delicate and pretty when she dressed like this and didn't speak.
Now hearing this, she carefully recalled her daughter's dress and appearance, and was suddenly speechless.
Since no one mentioned it before, she didn't think about it in this way.
Now think about it carefully, isn’t it just like a ghost?
Her daughter Xiangxiang has a yellowish complexion and looks darker when she wears white clothes.
It can be said that the face and the clothes are completely two different colors.
In order to match the color of the clothes and to appear more delicate, shouldn't you paint your face as white as possible?
When they met before, Xiangxiang didn't say anything, so it was okay.
But if you put too much powder on, it will fall off when you open your mouth...
After thinking about all this, Qiao realized that it was his own negligence.
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying more.
Since Baili Zheng's method doesn't work, let's just try another one.
The ladies from wealthy families in the city don’t get married until they are seventeen or eighteen years old.
Her daughter Xiangxiang won’t be sixteen until two months later.
There is still time to find a husband's family, there is no need to rush.
Who knows, one day a young man whose family holds a higher position than Baili Zheng’s father might fall in love with her Xiangxiang?
Isn’t it said that a higher-ranking official can crush people to death?
Then when Baili Zheng faces her daughter Xiangxiang, won’t he have to fawn on her?
Thinking of this, Qiao hardened her heart and said, "Xiangxiang, don't cry. What's a mere son of a county magistrate?
Just wait, once the disaster victims’ issues are completely resolved, I’ll take you to the provincial capital.
Then we can find a prefect's son and ask Master Baili to please you in return."
Su Xiang, who was originally sad, stopped crying after hearing this.
"Really? Mother, are you going to take me to the capital?"
She hadn't even been to the county town many times, let alone the provincial capital.
I heard from my uncle that the place is very big and prosperous, more lively than ten Lanxia counties combined.
If she could go there, she would certainly like it.
But the possibility of finding a son of an official family and marrying him is not great.
She is aware of her own identity.
The reason why she wanted to hook up with Baili Zheng, the son of an official, was because he was going to live here and she would have the opportunity to have more contact with him.
Besides, even though he has poor eyesight, he can still fall in love with Su Rongrong, so why can't she?
But who knew that this first meeting would not leave a good impression on the other party...
Thinking of this, Su Xiang began to feel sad again.
Apart from anything else, Baili Zheng is really good-looking.
He was so handsome that she didn't know how to describe it. She only knew that he had deep eyes, three-dimensional eyebrows, a high nose bridge and full lips.
It can be said that every part of it grows at the spot she likes.
From childhood to adulthood, she had never seen such a handsome young man.
She fell in love with him at first sight.
But that person hates her...
Qiao, who was outside the door, didn't know that she was silently sad again. Hearing this, she quickly assured him:
"Yes! Xiangxiang, don't cry, I will take you to the capital later.
Well, let’s go before the New Year and buy New Year’s goods there.”
Su Xiang has no feelings for Baili Zheng. She was sad only because she was talked about, and perhaps a little unwilling to accept it.
Now that she heard her mother's promise to take her to the provincial capital, she put that unpleasantness behind her.
"Mom, I'm old enough now and I need to prepare my dowry.
When we get to the capital, if you have enough money, can you buy me one or two nice things?"
How could Qiao have any money?
In the past, one had to scrape together money from everywhere to be exempted from corvee labor.
This means that she only has five or six taels on hand at most.
This amount of money would definitely be a lot under normal circumstances.
But she had already paid a price for the fact that Su Rongrong didn't die.
In addition to Su Xiang's injury, it also cost a lot for her and Su Da to see a doctor.
What I have now is just a little over three or two taels of silver.
Just now when she said she was going to the provincial capital, she just wanted to pay for her own travel expenses and then go to the family of the clan that adopted Su Jinhui for food and shelter.
So, when she heard Su Xiang wanted money to buy something, she was silent for a while before replying:
"If mother had enough money, she would definitely buy it for you.
Okay, open the door and let me see your hands."
Su Xiang's hand was broken by Su Rongrong before.
But she is lucky as the heroine in a novel with a bad ending.
The door panel only broke the bone in the middle of her left forearm. After the doctor reconnected it, it healed faster than anyone else.
In just a few days, although her hand was not healed, she was able to move it freely.
Qiao was afraid that she might be so sad that she might hurt her hand again, so she wanted to check it out.
At that time, lunch at Su Rongrong's home was almost over.
She had something to say to Baili Zheng, so she spoke while waiting for everyone to finish eating.
"Jinhong, your hand isn't healed yet, and you're not very comfortable eating with a spoon. Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry.
Qiaoqiao, watch your elder brother eat. When he finishes eating, help him back to his room and then wash the dishes and pots.
Remember to clean the pot, I will braise some more offal for Brother Zheng later."
Su Qiaoqiao, whose views had been repeatedly shocked by her elder sister in the past few days, nodded obediently.
"it is good!"
Su Rongrong turned and looked at Su Manman:
"Manman, Brother Zheng said that it will rain here in a few days.
You go make shoes and try to make sure everyone in the family has cotton shoes before it rains."
Su Manman stood up with a serious face and said, "Big sister, I'll take the shoes to Sister Tao Ya's house to be made."
She knew what a rainy day meant.
The reason why those disaster victims outside appeared in their Lanxia County, wasn’t it because their homes were flooded?
Although she was not sure what the situation would be like on her side by then.
But she thought it would always be a good idea to prepare warm clothes early.
Haven’t you seen her elder sister these past two days, who has been sewing all day long except for eating, sleeping and going to the toilet?
Su Rongrong didn't know that just one sentence from her had made Su Manman take her words so seriously.
She had already arranged everyone and was the first to stand up and walk out.
Her house is big with many rooms, and the study is currently unused, so she uses it as a place for conversation.
After Baili Zheng sent Da Hu away and entered the study, her first words were to call the other person's name.
"Bai Zheng?"
"Well, I am. You are?"
After hearing his admission, Su Rongrong relaxed completely and said with a smile:
"Lin Rong! When I was in high school, my dean's mother's surname was Lin, so my name is Lin Rong.
Later, when I was a sophomore, the dean's mother suddenly changed her last name to Su, like her mother, so I also changed my name to Su Rongrong."
Hearing the word Lin Rong, Baili Zheng, who was about to sit down, stood up and looked at the other party with wide eyes.
Lin Rong, this name left a deep impression on him.
This girl had been in the same class with him for three years and had also been helping him fight outside for three years.
