After the popularity was gone, Xu Mengxiao knew that today's matter was almost settled, so he asked the waiter to bring hot water and took a nice hot bath.

She enjoyed the rare moment of leisure after a busy day.

Put on the facial mask, listen to the soft music that you downloaded earlier on your phone, drink some tonics and beauty supplements, and sleep comfortably until dawn.

But it wasn't actually that comfortable. This room was obviously the best room she had booked. The bed was soft and big, and she could turn somersaults on it, but she slept alone.

But strangely, it was not as comfortable as Lu He's bed.

When she kicked off the quilt in the middle of the night, no one gently covered her with the quilt in a hazy moment.

No one groaned after being kicked by her, but allowed her to assume a comfortable position.

Xu Mengxiao slept to death, but she was not completely unconscious. Every night, there was someone who silently and meticulously took care of her, who was restless.

Because of the influence of his scumbag father, Xu Mengxiao has a hard time believing in feelings, and she has a playful mentality towards men and never takes them seriously.

Lu He's initial attitude also sent a wrong signal to her. She felt that this person was strict and self-disciplined, indifferent and emotionless, difficult to get close to, and would not be tainted with the feelings of men and women.

But if he was really provoked, Xu Mengxiao thought that she couldn't be like her scumbag father and must take responsibility for him.

"Hey, being too beautiful is also a sin."

As soon as Lu Hai opened the door, he heard someone narrating something narcissistically and immediately made a vomiting motion.

After the two had breakfast, they split into two groups. One went to the livestock market to continue guarding. Xu Mengxiao originally planned to go to the pastry shop to see how they were progressing.

Thinking of what he said yesterday, Xu Mengxiao went to the clothing store again.

"Hey, shopkeeper, isn't that Miss Xu?" the pastry shop clerk said sharply.

Wen Changming was overjoyed when he saw this. Just as he was about to call someone, he saw her walking to a clothing store not far away, "Maybe she still has something to do."

"Why don't we go to the clothing store to find her, and ask her about her relationship with shopkeeper Xu." Yesterday, the clerk went to investigate. Naturally, he couldn't find anything in a day, so he had to focus on the important things first.

Wen Changming also thought of the many acquaintances he had in his shop, and what he said again yesterday...

Here, Xu Mengxiao first bought herself a few new clothes, both inside and out, choosing ones that were comfortable and close-fitting. Although her mother and eldest sister can do it, embroidery is hard work, so she prefers to buy ready-made clothes. Easy.

Then, when she saw something that suited her, she picked out one for her mother and her eldest sister. Naturally, she couldn't let go of Zi Han's, but she wasn't sure about some sizes. But if she bought a bigger one, they could help change it when she got it back. .

She didn't know much about Uncle Li Zheng's and Lu Hai's and couldn't help but help buy them. But for Lu He's, Xu Mengxiao looked at the ready-made men's clothing in the shop.

The ready-made clothing stores in Fucheng not only have large stores and many styles, but also a dazzling array of colors, patterns, and types of fabrics, which is enough for her to dazzle.

Just at this moment, Wen Changming came over with his waiter, and Xu Mengxiao's eyes lit up, "Shopkeeper, help me get this set, this set, that set, and that set. I want to try it."

"Okay, wait a moment, miss." Seeing her buying so much in one go, the store manager was so excited that he was very attentive.

The first time Xu Mengxiao got the clothes, she compared them with Wen Changming.

"Miss Xu..." Wen Changming felt a little stiff all of a sudden, feeling her approach, even a little at a loss.

"You have a similar body shape to my husband. I want to see if these ready-made clothes are suitable for him." Xu Mengxiao explained, her eyes lingering on the clothes and his body, and she quickly and carefully picked out a few more outfits.

Because she cared that Luhe's simple clothes would make it inconvenient to move around in the countryside, she chose something simple and unobtrusive.

But the low-luxury dark patterns of auspicious clouds, the eye-catching green bamboo embroidery, the indigo robe, the double-breasted narrow-sleeved robe, and the crow-blue tapestry robe with dark patterns of ephedra, if worn on him, would definitely be extremely handsome!

Wen Changming clearly felt that she was so close, but his mind was not here at all. He smiled bitterly, and his body was as straight as a bamboo.

In the end, Xu Mengxiao was dumbfounded as soon as she paid.

"A total of eighty-seven taels. Girl, if you buy so much, I will give you two more belts!" said the shopkeeper who was afraid that she would be scared away by so much money.

Seeing her strange expression, Wen Changming couldn't help but said, "I can lend it to you..."

"It's okay, no need." Xu Mengxiao has never spent so much money, but isn't money earned just spent?

She directly took out a hundred taels of silver notes, bargained with the shopkeeper, and chose two good belts for Lu He.

Then she was satisfied and took a pile of clothes with her and said to the two people who had been waiting for her for a long time: "Thank you, why don't you go back to the shop first, and I will send these things back and come back to you later?"

She thought to herself that there might be something wrong with these two people being so eager to find them, but they had to be separated in order to collect a bunch of things into the space.

Wen Changming's scalp went numb when he thought of asking her to go to his shop and meet an acquaintance again. "It's probably not easy to talk to her over there in my shop. How about we go to the inn where you are staying?"

Xu Mengxiao thought about it for a while, so as not to meet his sweet-talking aunt again and arouse her suspicion.

The three of them left one after another, and the waiter whispered to Wen Changming, "Miss Xu and her husband-in-law look very affectionate."

Wen Changming felt a little sad. If he married a smart and outstanding girl like Miss Xu, he would definitely cherish her even more.

"Tell me, what did you find?" Xu Mengxiao put away the things and got straight to the point.

"Miss Xu's guess is right. Xu Daxiang, the big shopkeeper of Yipinju, is indeed having an affair with my aunt's third sister. The two have been together for about three years. They have already given birth to a daughter, and there is another one in her belly, which is about seven months old. ”

At this point, he paused and said, "In addition, he also has a woman who was redeemed from a brothel and is also pregnant."

Xu Mengxiao clicked her tongue, "My second uncle really does not have the red flag down at home, but the colorful flags are flying outside."

Originally, she was thinking about bringing over her quarrelsome second aunt to cause trouble, but from the looks of it——

"Is this the big shopkeeper Xu who announced to the outside world that your aunt's girl is the first wife?"

"That's not clear." The clerk said hurriedly, "But it seems that she came forward more often, and everyone thought she was his first wife. They also said that the two of them were deeply in love and envied others."

Naturally, I heard this from Xu Daxiang’s neighbor.

Xu Mengxiao could also analyze Xu Laoer's psychology. He looked down on the vulgar and rustic Zhang family, so he must have married a "wife" here who would give him face.

But with his current identity and status, how could one wife be enough? Maybe he had other women besides the one redeemed from the brothel.

"I guess he enjoys the feeling of being among women and playing with people's hearts."

"So your aunt's three sisters, including your aunt's family, probably don't know that he actually has a wife and children in the country!"
