Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 359: Chapter 359: His Name is Chu Lian, I Don’t Know Him Inside the house

As soon as Xiaoxiao entered the house, she saw Wang Xiangxiang tidying up things with a rather gloomy expression. She immediately asked, ”Sister Wang, why are you heading home now?”

Wang Xiangxiang’s movements didn’t stop as she packed and replied, ”Seeing that you all are fine, I should head home, shouldn’t I? Should I stay here and watch you lovebirds?!”

”...” Was she accusing her of flaunting her love? Whom should she blame? Wasn’t it Wang Xiangxiang herself who had eavesdropped? That was practically seeking her own misery!

”Wait till you find a husband, then you can flaunt your love in front of me too.”

”...” Xiaoxiao really knew how to hit where it hurt, knowing full well that she was anxious about getting married, and couldn’t find anyone, ”Where am I going to find love then?”

Thinking about it, Xiaoxiao teased, suspecting that something had happened between Wang Xiangxiang and Chu Lian when they were in the carriage, ”Come on, what’s going on between you and that Chu Lian?”

”Who is Chu Lian?” Wang Xiangxiang replied nonchalantly, genuinely unaware that the shameless man was Chu Lian.

”...” Could they even have a pleasant conversation? She had just kissed him and eavesdropped on him.

Being together to eavesdrop, wasn’t their relationship more than ordinary? Would she not even know his name?

”He’s the one we rode back in the carriage with.”

”Oh, he’s named Chu Lian? I don’t know him.”

Wang Xiangxiang continued packing, hearing his name for the first time. So, he was Chu Lian.

”...” She doesn’t know him? Does someone not knowing Chu Lian go around kissing fiercely? She really found that hard to believe, Chu Lian wasn’t the impulsive type.

”Do you really not know him? You seemed quite familiar.”

Wang Xiangxiang said helplessly, ”Really, I don’t know him. If I did, wouldn’t we have greeted each other at Silver Pavilion that day?”

Xiaoxiao thought about it, and it seemed to make sense. That day she was so focused on making the ring that she forgot to introduce them. Indeed, they had not spoken at that time, and later Wang Xiangxiang had even asked who he was.

That made the situation rather odd, strangers kissing intensely in a carriage; what was that about?

”Sister Wang, you better not go. We’ve made quite a bit of lingerie already, and I’m planning to take it to the county in a day or two. You’ll be busy then.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang paused in her actions, startled. It was Chu Lian’s fault that she had almost forgotten her actual business. She was originally planning this, as she needed to make money.

”Fine, I won’t go.”

Seeing that she had persuaded Wang Xiangxiang, Xiaoxiao quickly said, ”Let’s go then. My husband hasn’t eaten yet; I need to fix him something.”

”...” Xiaoxiao really was something, always keeping her husband in mind, ”Xiaoxiao, have you ever tried the food cooked by Li Fugui?”

”No,” Xiaoxiao replied as she walked outside with Wang Xiangxiang.

”Let me tell you, Li Fugui might have been born to be a chef. It’s only been a few days, and his cooking is exceptionally delicious.”

This news stunned Xiaoxiao; Li Fugui really cooked? And it was very delicious, only in about half a month?

”Are you sure?” Xiaoxiao could hardly believe it.

”There’s no doubt about it. I’ve eaten plenty of dishes. I’m very picky. Why don’t we go there tonight, and you can try it for yourself.”

Chu Lian had been standing in the yard, not yet departed, when he heard Wang Xiangxiang’s voice, seemingly no longer upset. As soon as the topic of Li Fugui’s delicious cooking came up, she became very happy, chatting away non-stop.

He unconsciously looked towards Wang Xiangxiang, and as their eyes met, he saw her quickly withdraw her radiant smile, pulling Xiaoxiao as she spoke.

”Let’s go.”
