Provoking the villain, madly criticizing the tyrant for kidnapping my sedan chair for the bridal cha

Lin Lixia turned around and grabbed Xu Taohua's hand, completely ignoring Ji Shen's frozen expression.

"Grandma, don't worry, these rumors in the village won't have enough influence on me."

"Our family will definitely move up step by step as my eldest brother takes the exam. When I reach the age of marriage, we will have moved to the capital long ago."

"Moving to the capital?" Xu Taohua was surprised and happy, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, full of anticipation.

In the past, her biggest wish was that her son or grandson would be admitted as a scholar, and they could move their family to Plum Blossom City, which she did not even dare to think about in Qingyang City.

Now her granddaughter has bought a courtyard next to Qingyang City College without any effort, and now her family is moving to Qingyang City.

Her granddaughter is so capable, she said it is not impossible for her family to move to the capital.

Thinking of this, Xu Taohua looked at Ji Shen with a smile on her face: "Xiao Lu, how big of an official should I be in Lidong before I can match your family?"

"Grandma!" Lin Lixia staggered.

Without waiting for Ji Shen's answer.

Dragging Xu Taohua, she turned around and entered the house: "Grandma, what are you thinking about?"

"Xia Xia, I think General Lu is very good. He is handsome, has liveliness in his eyes, and has no airs. He is the best candidate for grandson-in-law that grandma has ever seen..."

"Grandma!" Lin Lixia called Xu Taohua in a long voice, with a bit of coquettishness in her tone: "That's because you didn't see it, he is very clever..."

Xu Taohua interrupted her granddaughter with a smile: "Having a sharp mind means that he is smart, and his children will also be smart in the future."

"..." Lin Lixia was speechless and raised her head: "Grandma, what if he wants to trick me into selling me in the capital? Are you counting the money for him?"

"He dares? He dares to sell my Xia Xia." Xu Taohua looked angry: "Grandma will fight for him!"

Hearing the old lady defending herself like this, Lin Lixia felt warm in her heart.

"Grandma, there are rumors circulating in the village, and it may not be without his contribution. At this time, you must not think that he is good."

Xu Taohua nodded, thought for a moment, and felt that her granddaughter's words made sense.

Since Lin Xiaoxue became Gong Xingtai's concubine, she went to the capital with Gong Xingtai.

Some people in the village also teased her whether she planned to keep Xiao Lu and marry her to Xia Xia.

At that time, she directly said that it was wrong for her to be from a different family, how could she become her grandson-in-law overnight.

Perhaps as Xia Xia said, this rumor was deliberately created by Xiao Lu.

"Xia Xia, people in the village said they saw Xiao Lu personally giving you a betrothal gift. What was it?"

"..." The villagers were really good at spreading rumors. Lin Lixia took out the mahogany box.

"Grandma, it's not a betrothal gift, it's a thank you gift he gave me. It's a box of pearls."

Lin Lixia opened the mahogany box and showed Xu Taohua the pearls in the box.

"Grandma, when we wait for Qingyang City, I will find someone to make you a necklace. Wearing pearls when you sleep can nourish your beauty and help you sleep."

"Did Xiao Lu give it to you?" Xu Taohua's eyes were filled with shock. She stretched out her hand to pick up a pearl and looked at it again and again in the sunshine.

I was murmuring in my heart.

The granddaughter kept saying that she would not marry Xiao Lu, and she kept the pearls given by others without mercy at all.

Are you really unintentional?

Or are you worried that the door is wrong?

"Xia Xia, tell grandma, what do you think of Xiao Lu?"

"Partner!" Lin Lixia played with the pearls in the box.

The quality of this pearl is so good. Even if she was not short of money, she would not be able to buy it of such quality, so she was reluctant to return it.

"Grandma, I cooperated with him to open a workshop. As a business partner, he gave me a box of pearls, and I gave him other gifts in return. No one took advantage of the exchange of gifts."

Seeing her granddaughter opening and closing her little mouth and speaking plausibly, Xu Taohua didn't believe a word she said.

Which partner gives pearls?

Although she had never seen such a fine pearl in her entire life, she had heard it said about it.

When a man gives pearls to his sweetheart, it usually expresses how much he values ​​and cherishes his sweetheart, and also means that his sweetheart is precious to him.

Pearls are round and full, and they also symbolize perfection and perfection.

Sending pearls also represents a man’s blessings and wishes for his sweetheart, hoping that her life will be perfect and happy.

When she was young, when she first heard about the meaning of a man giving pearls to his sweetheart, she dreamed of having a copy of such pearls.

But she knew deeply that as a peasant girl, she would not be worthy of pearls in her life.

Who would have expected that when she lived to this age, her granddaughter would bring a box of pearls of such fine quality and say she would make a necklace for her.

Life is full of surprises.

Since Xiao Lu treats her granddaughter so sincerely, she should help Xiao Lu a little.

Xia Xia must have felt that the two of them were not in the same family, and it was difficult for them to respond to Xiao Lu's feelings.

When the family moved to Qingyang City, she urged Lidong to study hard.

Now, let’s not tear down the granddaughter’s stage.

The province made Xia Xia lose face, and secretly teased Xiao Lu to vent her anger.

"Xia Xia, you can keep such fine pearls to make jewelry for yourself. Grandma doesn't like pearls. Grandma likes to wear gold necklaces."

"Grandma doesn't like pearls?" Lin Lixia looked surprised. It was clear that the old lady was surprised and happy when she saw the pearls just now.

Why don't you like it?

"Grandma, this box of pearls is enough to make necklaces for our grandparents and grandchildren."

Xu Taohua did not answer her granddaughter's words.

"Xia Xia, please find the sewing basket. Grandma will teach you how to do needlework later."

"..." Why is the jump so big? Lin Lixia was stunned for a moment and said, "Grandma, I don't want to learn. The needle pricks my hand and it hurts!"

"Xia Xia, Xiao Lu gave you a box of such fine pearls. You can give him a pair of leggings in return, just like the ones you asked me to make for your grandfather last time."

I would like to exchange a leggings for a box of pearls, but my grandma is better than she is at making a fool of herself.

Lin Lixia couldn't argue with the old lady.

Change the topic directly.

"Grandma, I still have some things in the house that I haven't finished yet. I'll go pack them first."

Outside the house, Ji Shen heard Lin Lixia's words and quickly turned around and walked toward the door.

He had mixed feelings.

He never dreamed that Lin Lixia was dissatisfied with him because he disliked him for being too narrow-minded.

Would you suspect that he sold her?

Where is the problem?

Ji Shen was thinking as he walked, and when he walked out of the door of Lin's courtyard, he heard Xu Taohua calling him.

"Xiao Lu, come here!"

He turned around and remembered Xu Taohua saying that he was the best candidate for his grandson-in-law.

The look in his eyes relaxed a bit, and he supported Xu Taohua who walked out of the house with a polite expression.

"Grandma Lin!"

Xu Taohua glanced through the window at her granddaughter who was busy packing things in the room, making sure that she didn't notice the movement.

She deliberately lowered her voice.

"What's your name, Grandma Lin? You're too outspoken. From now on, just like Xia Xia, you'll call me grandma."

The light in Ji Shen's eyes lit up little by little, and she smiled clearly: "Grandma!"

"Warm!" Xu Taohua smiled kindly, lowered her voice and said to Ji Shen:

"Grandma saw the pearls you gave to my Xia Xia. Grandma understands your thoughts."

"However, my Xia Xia can't stand the grievance. You and her can't be anxious about it."

"..." Ji Shen nodded, his voice full of joy: "Grandma, I know, you can't be in a hurry, you have to take it step by step."

Xu Taohua smiled, looking at Ji Shen's eyes more and more satisfied, and asked again.

"Xiao Lu, how big of an official should my family be in Lidong before I can match your family?"
