Siheyuan: This is really immoral

Just when Chen Xueru was feeling wronged, the clerk who had gone in to get something came out and asked:

"Sister Xueru, is this it?"

"Yeah, yes..."

Chen Xueru knew at a glance that she had taken the right thing. After taking the package, she opened it, took something out and said to Lin Zhuang:

"It's definitely the right size, just take a look at the quality."

Lin Zhuang just picked it up and looked at it casually, then touched the Dacron material of the clothes and smacked his lips in amazement. This material, which people in later generations would not even bother to buy, is now a treasure.

Chen Xueru heard his "tsk" sound and really thought that there was something wrong with her clothes. She took one of the top clothes doubtfully, spread it on the table, looked at it again and again but didn't see any problem. She couldn't help but ask:

"There's nothing wrong with the clothes, you are...?"

"Nothing, just thought of something."

Chen Xueru certainly didn't think that the clothes she made herself could have any quality problems, so she stopped thinking about it and deliberately shook the receipt on the table in front of Lin Zhuang, saying:

"Can you give it to me now?"

"As long as the money and goods are settled, then of course it's possible."

After Chen Xueru finished, she rolled her eyes and said to the clerk next to her:

"Xiao Li, I want to eat candied haws. Can you buy one for me?"

The clerk, who was as innocent as a student who had just entered society, had no idea that Chen Xueru was trying to get her out of the way. She said with a clear and somewhat foolish look:

"Okay, Sister Xueru, I'll be right there when I get it."

After the clerk Xiaoli left, Lin Zhuang raised his eyebrows. He didn't know what Chen Xueru was going to say and why she wanted to send the clerk away.

After Chen Xueru saw that there were no outsiders, she immediately asked:

"Lin Zhuang, what exactly do you do for a living?"

Just asking this question?

Lin Zhuang couldn't help but have such a thought in his mind, but there was no need to hide it when it came to serious work, so he replied:

"I work in the logistics department of the steel mill."

"Steel rolling mill? Logistics department? Then you..."

Seeing that she was about to ask a series of questions about her household registration, Lin Zhuang interrupted her and said:

"Stop, stop, stop... I come to the beautiful lady's silk shop to make clothes and I have to be questioned about my identity information, right?"

Chen Xueru was not angry because Lin Zhuang interrupted her. She just blinked at Lin Zhuang.

Lin Zhuang didn't want to continue her conversation, but he was frightened by Chen Xueru's charming eyes, so he said helplessly: "Boss Chen, if you keep staring at me like this, I will pick up my clothes and leave immediately."

Chen Xueru didn't continue his words. She stared at Lin Zhuang without moving her eyes, and said to herself: "You really don't look like someone from our Sijiu City, not at all... Are you a Xia countryman at this time...?"

Suddenly!

Lin Zhuang looked at her in horror, with ghosts all around him, wondering if she had discovered something.

But Chen Xueru's next words slowly calmed his violently beating heart.

"You are more foreign than any foreigner I have ever seen. I always feel that your personality is definitely not that of a person from our Flower Growing Family. Are you a foreigner in disguise as a citizen of the Forbidden City?"

Chen Xueru had such a wild imagination because Su Guo's friends had told her many strange and supernatural stories. However, Lin Zhuang cursed in his heart, and had already turned over all the dirty words he could think of in his mind, like ten thousand horses galloping past.

He forced a smile and said to Chen Xueru:

"What are you talking about??? The clothes are fine, I'm leaving now."

Chen Xueru immediately threw away the perverse thoughts in her mind. Seeing that Lin Zhuang had already walked out, she stepped forward, grabbed his wrist, and explained:

"It was just a sudden thought that came to me just now... Don't mind it. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? I still have something to tell you."

Lin Zhuang still had sweat on his back because of what she just said. He didn't want to see her anymore, at least for the next two days. He blamed this woman...

But Chen Xueru didn't know how much psychological trauma her unintentional words had caused to Lin Zhuang, and she tried hard to pull Lin Zhuang back.

Lin Zhuang said to her in confusion, "Boss Chen, what else do you want to do? I'm busy. If you don't have anything else, go make your clothes and I'll go do my work."

"Something's going on, something's going on. If there's nothing going on, why would I stop you? What I want to say is..."

"What is it? Tell me."

Chen Xueru was stunned. What important matter did she have? She said quickly, "Look how well I made this dress. If you want to make clothes next time, do you have to come to me again?"

Lin Zhuang said perfunctorily: "Yes, your clothes are really nice. I will come again next time."

Just then, the clerk who had gone out came back with empty hands and said to Chen Xueru:

"Sister Xueru, I went to several places nearby and there is no place selling candied haws. It may be too hot. They are usually only available in the evening."

Chen Xueru just found an excuse to get her out of the way and said to her:

"It's okay, it's nothing serious, just sit down and take a rest."

After Xiaoli came back, Chen Xueru didn't plan to ask Lin Zhuang anything anymore. She just found an excuse to ask Lin Zhuang for an address.

When Lin Zhuang left Chen Xueru's silk shop, he couldn't help but look back, shuddered, and muttered in a voice that only he could hear:

"I don't think I'm the person I am now. I don't think you are like that! I haven't seen many people with such a fresh and unconventional way of thinking in the future."

Afterwards, Lin Zhuang took the clothes and put them into the bag in the car and went to the small courtyard. I guess the two adults and one child in the courtyard must be very happy again.

......

squeak~

After arriving at the gate of the small courtyard, Lin Zhuang discovered that the door was open. Thinking something had happened, he braked suddenly and skidded to a stop at the gate.

Fortunately, when I looked inside, I found nothing unusual. Xiaodang was just riding a bicycle that was taller than her, and Qin Huairu was supporting her.

Hearing the sound of sudden brakes at the door, Qin Huairu poked his head out and saw that it was Lin Zhuang. He explained to him, "After Jingru and I learned how to ride a bicycle, Xiaodang rushed to learn it today. It was useless to tell her that she was not tall enough to ride."

Lin Zhuang parked the car in the yard, closed the door and bolted it, then took Xiao Dang down from the car and said:

"It's not okay for a child to disobey his mother. Did you find that you can't ride or reach it?"

Xiao Dang nodded in disappointment. Lin Zhuang touched her head and said nothing. He asked Qin Huairu:

"What is Jingru doing? Why can't I see her?"
