The happy life of the landlady

Chapter 393 Don't Talk Bad About People Behind Their Backs

"Oh." Xu Lijuan bent down, grabbed a few pearls, looked at the light, and said doubtfully: "I didn't expect these pearls to be quite valuable. No wonder my mother's face was so tender after making a mask last time." Just like a freshly peeled egg, even the few not-so-obvious wrinkles disappeared. It seems that the old man's saying 'you get what you pay for' is indeed very reasonable."

If those people outside knew this, they would curse Xu Lijuan, the "prodigal girl"!

"Xiaojuan, you should take these pearls back, they are too precious..." Yu Jiayi shook her head, "I can accept other things, but I really can't accept this one."

"Ah?" Xu Lijuan blinked, her face full of depression: "Xiaoyi, when have you ever seen me take back the gifts I sent out? What's more, these pearls are not as valuable as you imagined... Those pearls outside It’s fine for those who don’t know, I don’t believe you don’t know the items in the auction, some of them are really worth thousands of dollars, and some are just artificially inflated prices.”

"Anyway, these pearls are very precious, and I can't take them." With Yu Jiayi's intelligence, how could she not guess that what Xu Lijuan said about using pearls to make a mask is indeed true, but it is definitely not using these pearls. Box of pearls!Then, the reason why Xu Lijuan did this was because she wanted to give her some valuable things so that she could have a return gift when she interacted with other people in the future. The unpolished original pearls were presented, and she just waited for her to send them to the jewelry store to be repolished into exquisite pearl ornaments.

"Then I don't care. Anyway, I have already given you gifts. What you want to do with these gifts is what you should worry about!"

Xu Lijuan tilted her head, blinked her eyes, put the pearls in her hand back into the box, and continued the original topic with a smile: "Xiaoyi, after using the mask made of these pearl powders, we will be able to make I am not an old fairy anymore... Think about it, 20 years later, we will still be as young as eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls, and we can attract a lot of people's attention by standing out casually. By then, if my brother-in-law and Brother Fu If there is a hint of an affair, we can kick them immediately, and find a younger, more handsome, and more handsome man to be our husband, and it won't attract criticism from a lot of moralists, how good it is!"

"Xiaojuan, you..." Yu Jiayi stared dumbfoundedly at Xu Lijuan, who was talking nonsense. She couldn't believe that the eloquent and eloquent girl in front of her was the soft-spoken girl in her memory who made people want to call "Baozi" this The word Xu Lijuan was placed on her body.

Seeing that Yu Jiayi was shocked by her own words, Xu Lijuan's depressed mood because Yu Jiayi didn't want to accept these pearls disappeared immediately, and she said with more joy: "Well, you and brother-in-law are close 20 years of childhood friendship, even if my brother-in-law wants to get out of the wall in 20 or [-] years, he still has to consider whether his body will be stripped off. And you and your brother-in-law share weal and woe, and you have to consider his career, Even if there are those signs, they will be snuffed out at the budding stage. Even if what happened, they will help cover up one or two, even if the bitterness in my heart is flowing against the river, I still smile and smile when facing outsiders, a picture of the relationship between husband and wife deep look."

"Tsk... It's hard to think about such a day. It's said that 'three-legged toads are hard to find, but there are many men with two legs'. When the time came, I just kicked him. She is not a weak woman who cannot live without a man, nor is she a yellow-faced woman who needs to rely on a man to support her family. Why should she be like those so-called aristocratic wives, living a life of 'respecting each other as guests' for the sake of the little face left? Life!"

……

"Xiaojuan, who instilled this in you?" Yu Jiayi said with difficulty, but she had to admit that she was indeed provoked by Xu Lijuan's words, and she became more and more determined that even after marriage, she must have an absolutely capable job. The job of supporting oneself can't be like other aristocratic daughters in the circle. It doesn't matter how good you are before you get married. After you get married, you will immediately live the life of the so-called husband and child.

Think about it, if you stay in a small circle for many years without further contact with people of other levels, your vision will inevitably become narrower, not to mention the sensitive information in the past. It is not necessarily possible to get it.My husband was tired all day outside, and I finally met at night. I want to discuss with him a few words about current affairs and politics, and then talk about the latest gossip in the capital. The chances of getting the impression of being virtuous, intelligent, dignified and virtuous” will gradually decrease, and in the end, it can only be sadly reduced to talking about beauty jewelry with other people, rushing to one banquet after another every day, watching helplessly. Those female employees who were not as young, beautiful, and educated as she was back then slowly walked into her husband's heart, and then ended up sticking to her empty boudoir.

These heartfelt words were originally what Yu Jiayi wanted to find a chance to say after learning the news that Xu Lijuan had become Fu Jianbai's girlfriend, for fear that Xu Lijuan would lose herself like she was infatuated with Lin Haocang before, but she never did. Unexpectedly, before she had time to say it, Xu Lijuan took this opportunity to say these words.

So, Yu Jiayi bent down and threw the box containing nearly 100 pearls into Xu Lijuan's arms, and said, "Actually, it's not as scary as you said, although no matter what era there are people with pearls The big banner of "true love" is secretly rubbing people and women in the corner, but there are still those Liu Xiahui who are "sleeping in their arms". We should also give more confidence to Brother Yuwen and General Fu, and believe them They will never do these things behind our backs."

"Let me tell you, in fact, in any society, women are at a disadvantage, so we must learn to protect ourselves and at the same time carefully maintain our marriage. Think about it, since they can agree to be our boyfriend, And gave us a grand marriage, and having children with us, it means that we have an irreplaceable position in their hearts. Since they chose us and gave us such trust, then we will We should hold their hearts together at all times... In this way, even if those goblins outside have three heads and six arms, they can't win their hearts away with all their wrists."

"Men, in fact, like women, they like to listen to nice words. Usually, they should say something nice, and never forget to praise him, tell him that he is the best in the world, don't worry about kicking him anyway, You have to tell him that he is your most beloved person."

When Yu Jiayi talked about getting up, seeing Xu Lijuan staring at her dumbfounded this time, she became more and more proud, and without hesitation passed on her "experience in controlling husbands" over the years to Xu Lijuan: "A man, that's how it is." Son! Where is our opponent? Let me tell you, you have to..."

Just at this time, Lin Yuwen and Fu Jianbo, who found that Yu Jiayi and Xu Lijuan hadn't come to the storage room to move things for a long time, came out with a lot of things each. The cold air, the eyes that stared at Yu Jiayi were full of terrifying murderous intent, as if thinking about how to torment Yu Jiayi so that she would stop encouraging Xu Lijuan to do such "rebellious" things.

Seeing this, Lin Yuwen stepped forward in a hurry to cover Fu Jianbai's murderous eyes. By the way, at a corner that Fu Jianbai didn't notice, he showed a fierce look at Xu Lijuan's back. The so-called "best friend" who forgot to stir up the friendship between Yu Jiayi and him, no longer had the previous gratitude, and wished to knock Xu Lijuan out of the door immediately!
However, after feeling the cold and warning gaze from behind him, he secretly blamed Fu Jianbai, a "cold-blooded madman", for having a day when he couldn't restrain his little girlfriend. Yuwen put on an aggrieved look, and by the way, looked at Xu Lijuan "dare not to speak out", and said: "Xiaoyi, I am so obedient, obedient, and resistant to beatings, why are you willing to kick me out? "

"Isn't this 'nip in the bud'!"

Xu Lijuan, who was on the same front as Yu Jiayi, curled her lips. From Lin Yuwen's ugly face, she could guess that he had heard a lot of what he said just now, but she didn't feel guilty at all, and just greeted him friendly A sound, and then said what Yu Jiayi was inconvenient to say without hesitation.

"In today's society, divorce is more convenient than having a meal. Those women who love vanity always like to climb up one after another under the banner of 'true love', and try their best to be that little cat who doesn't affect the status of the wife. Dog'. Now, brother-in-law, you really love Xiaoyi very much, but who knows that in ten or twenty years, when Xiaoyi is old and fat, and exudes a vicissitudes of life, will you still love her? I love Xiaoyi as always, but will I be seduced by those girls who are younger and more beautiful than Xiaoyi, so that I will have sex with my soul or body!"

"You, think, too much!" Lin Yuwen endured and endured, and then suppressed the idea of ​​beating Xu Lijuan, but he put the back of his hand with veins on his side, and the man who was staring at Xu Lijuan fiercely. The look in his eyes showed that he was full of anger at the moment, "I am an upright man, how could I make such a decision to abandon my poor wife!" But he thought secretly: It seems that in the future, he must be locked in prison. Yu Jiayi, we can no longer let Xu Lijuan into the house so easily, so as not to abduct Yu Jiayi unscrupulously in front of him again today.

"However, Xiaojuan, I didn't expect that you are so insecure."

When talking about this, Lin Yuwen did not forget to give Fu Jianbai a little sympathetic look. To have such a girlfriend who is devoted to "leaving the wall" all the time is a maddening thing for anyone. matter.In particular, Fu Jianbo is still a resident army, a soldier who may not be able to return to Beijing once a year.I can't complain that when we met today, Fu Jianbai would pester Xu Lijuan uncharacteristically. Presumably, Fu Jianbai had discovered Xu Lijuan's overly detached mentality long ago, so he wove a net with tenderness and sweetness before returning to the team, and wrapped it carefully. Xu Lijuan entangled Xu Lijuan so tightly that Xu Lijuan couldn't even think about other things, let alone break free from this "net".

...In the final analysis, "the same people who have fallen in the end of the world"!

"You, think, too much!" After Xu Lijuan returned the sentence to Lin Yuwen without changing the original words, even her tone remained unchanged, she ignored it and rushed towards Yu Jiayi like an arrow that left the string. Lin Yuwen, who chased her away with a gesture of chasing away annoying flies, just hurried a few steps, and when he arrived, despite the cold weather, he still kept emitting air-conditioning, with a face full of "I'm very upset" "I'm very irritable" in front of Fu Jianbai.

Xu Lijuan carefully brushed the dust off Fu Jianbai's clothes, then took Fu Jianbai's arm, and with a strong posture, she pulled Fu Jianbai to sit on the sofa, and then found a comfortable position in Fu Jianbai's arms. Then he took Fu Jianbai's hand and put it on his waist to stabilize his body so as not to accidentally fall to the ground.

"It's been a hard day today. Shall we go home for dinner tonight, or should we find a restaurant outside?"

In the past, hearing Xu Lijuan's words, Fu Jianbai must have been full of excitement and excitement, and chose to have a candlelight dinner with Xu Lijuan without hesitation.

However, remembering what he just heard, although Fu Jianbai put away the cold breath when Xu Lijuan approached him as always, and fixed Xu Lijuan's waist with one hand, he did not forget to continue to move from the table. I grabbed some pine nuts and hazelnuts from the fruit plate on the table and shelled them, but I still felt a little sad in my heart. I endured and endured, but I still couldn't hold back and asked: "In the past, did you just talk casually?" He knew Well, the sweet words that Xu Lijuan uttered are all fooling people.

In the final analysis, he was still too old, and he had no common language with eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls. Every time he chatted with Xu Lijuan, he could only talk about things in the army. Stationed in a closed mountain village, in addition to training and receiving tasks every day, there is no extra thought and energy to pay attention to the current fashion trends in the outside world. How can I have too much in common with Xu Lijuan who is still studying at B University? ?
Seeing that Fu Jianbai is about to get into a dead end, Xu Lijuan can't care about her best friend Yu Jiayi, who is dealing with Lin Yuwen's sad appearance and keeps ceding land and paying compensation. The two are "Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai - one is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer".

"Brother Fu, I thought that during this period of time together, you should understand how sincerely I treat you." Xu Lijuan gave Fu Jianbai a grievous look, then turned her head away, blinking, and there were a string of tears The son slipped in front of Fu Jianbai, and Fu Jianbai, who was only distressed, didn't care about other things at all. He just wiped away his tears with his fingers, then stroked Xu Lijuan's cheek, and said in a wrong way: "Xiaojuan, I believe in you."

"No, if you really believed in me, you wouldn't be sulking at me if you didn't listen to my explanation after listening to my 'sentimental' remarks just now."

Xu Lijuan poked Fu Jianbai's hard chest with her fingers, "it is often said in books that 'happy is sad, anger hurts the liver, thought hurts the spleen, sorrow hurts the lungs, and fear hurts the kidneys'. Although you are still young, you can't do it like this." It’s not about your own body. In the future, if you accidentally hear something like today, you can’t sulk in your heart and let me coax you. Instead, you should have a frank and open talk with me, so as not to confuse you Not to mention that the body that is easy to take care of is broken down, and you still fall into the trap set by those caring people, then it is really 'you can't tell if you suffer'."

Fu Jianbai pursed his lips, and after a long silence, he delivered the peeled pine nuts and hazelnuts to Xu Lijuan's hands. Looking aside, Yu Jiayi had already been captured, and he was hugging Yu Jiayi and whispering something , Yu Jiayi laughed so hard that he didn't even notice the unequal treaties he signed, so he had to praise Lin Yuwen, who was extremely skillful, and suddenly there was a feeling in his heart, "I'm not happy, so I have to delay it." The idea of ​​"people going into the water" came.

——These two kilowatt light bulbs are too obtrusive, so it is right to find a suitable opportunity to repay one or two!

Thinking about it this way, Fu Jianbai felt a bit more at ease in his heart. While looking away, he picked up the teacup and handed it to Xu Lijuan's mouth, "Drink some water."

Xu Lijuan held Fu Jianbai's hand, took a sip of water, and then watched Fu Jianbai pour the rest of the water down her throat. A few sporadic drops of water slipped from her chin to her throat, accompanied by the constant shaking Her throat and the heat escaping from his body only made her feel extremely parched, because she was so easily seduced by Fu Jianbai's "beauty", she wished she could push Fu Jianbai down immediately Feeling restless because of the thought, Xiafei raised her cheeks.

So, Xu Lijuan hurriedly looked away, looking at Yu Jiayi who was also in Lin Yuwen's arms, letting Lin Yuwen feed her peanuts, she silently despised Lin Yuwen's trick of picking up Fu Jianbai to apply to her girlfriends shameless behavior.

"Xiao Yi, let's move these things to your room first, before anyone comes to pay New Year's greetings."

"Okay." Yu Jiayi smiled after receiving Xu Lijuan's gaze, got up and Xu Lijuan each moved some things and went upstairs, leaving Lin Yuwen and Fu Jianbai in the living room again.

As soon as she entered her room, although she followed Lin Yuwen and said good things and seemed to have signed many treaties of humiliating power and humiliating the country, but in fact she also got a lot of hidden benefits in the dark, Yu Jiayi couldn't help but said: "Okay!" Ah, you little girl is actually a 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger'. I thought you were young and didn't understand these principles, but now I see that your skills are much better than mine. In vain, I still want to teach you What's the 'Secrets of Harnessing Your Husband', hum! Be honest, who did you learn these skills from?"

"Who else can I learn from? Other than my mother, who else will teach me by example!" Xu Lijuan spread her hands, shrugged her shoulders, her face was full of innocence, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with dragging Du Mengqi into the water.

Xu Ankang and Du Mengqi are indeed worthy of being a powerful couple who are envied and hated by the wives of aristocratic families. They have been in love for decades, and the relationship between the two is closer than that of a newly married couple. The stickiness made Xu Lijuan feel like her eyes would be blinded from time to time.

This kind of "one couple for life" love is not only the pursuit of Xu Lijuan and Yu Jiayi, but also the lifelong pursuit of all the women in the circle.

"Really?!" Yu Jiayi thought hard for a long time, but she still couldn't understand why Xu Lijuan, who had such a trick and scheming of "charming people's hearts invisible", would be so defeated in the face of Lin Haocang, a scumbag. It's not at all like the very smart and shrewd woman in front of me who has accepted Du Mengqi's precepts and deeds.

"Cook it!" Xu Lijuan squinted at Yu Jiayi, her eyes seemed to be out of focus, her mind was wandering, and she added slowly: "It is said that men are soft-hearted, but when they become hard, then It can't even be compared with stubborn stones, so these small tricks can only be effective when used on people who really like themselves."

Yu Jiayi, who understood Xu Lijuan's implication, was silent for a while, then patted Xu Lijuan's shoulder, and said, "It's okay, you've come to the end of your hardships now. Although it's the first time I've met Lieutenant General Fu, Judging from his performance today, it can indeed show that he has put you on the top of his heart. You, in the future, just wait for your happiness!"

"As long as I think about the existence of a 'god' in the circle, Lieutenant General Fu, who everyone thought he would spend his whole life alone, actually worshiped under your pomegranate skirt. Every time someone mentions you, they will intentionally or unintentionally tie you together with that scumbag Lin Haocang, wishing you could continue to live the ridiculous life of the past!"

"These people... one or two are envious of your unfathomable wealth, and think that you can't be called 'other people's child' at all, and are used by your parents and elders to educate them, haha... don't even think about it, What are they doing when you are studying, what are they doing when you are trying to make money!"
