Chapter 89 The Devil’s Whisper
"Is Brother Fang Xiang here? Is Brother Fang Xiang here?"
Just when Fang wanted to stay in bed, there was a familiar voice knocking on the door.
Isn’t this Qin Jingru? Why is she here in the hospital on New Year’s Day?
Fang Xiang was a little surprised, but still got out of bed and opened the door.
"Brother Fang Xiang, Happy New Year!"
When Qin Jingru saw Fang Xiang, a happy smile suddenly appeared on her face.
"How did you come?"
Fang Xiang looked at Qin Jingru, somewhat puzzled.
"It's Chinese New Year now, and I don't have anything to do at home.
I came to the city to ask my sister to help her take care of the children and do housework.
Then, I came to see you.”
Qin Jingru's cheeks were as red as the red scarf around her neck.
"I brought you some local specialties. Don't be disgusted."
Qin Jingru was holding a cloth bag in her hand. After handing it to Fang Xiang, she turned around and ran away.
"Hey, don't..."
Fang Xiang was speechless when Qin Huairu came to his house last time.
I clearly told her that I have a girlfriend.
Why did Qin Jingru come to find me?
I closed the door, opened the cloth bag, and found that it was full of farm things.
You can tell at a glance that they are all worthless.
But this kind of thought cannot be measured by money.
He sighed, put it aside, and went back to bed to read the novel.
“Let me tell you, after Bang Geng and Jia Zhangshi go in.
Your sister is like a different person, she seems to have lost her soul all day long.
If there are two fewer people in the family, your sister's salary is enough for three people to eat and drink.
But now, Huaihua and Xiaodang are worse than before.
They are getting thinner day by day. Fortunately you came, otherwise I don’t know what would happen to the two children.
It’s Chinese New Year and I can’t even eat a hot meal. What a sin.”
Before Qin Jingru even reached the central courtyard, she was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed third aunt.
Dragged aside, and started whispering.
"And Fang Xiang, do you know that he is very proud of himself now?
Just two days ago, a soldier drove a jeep and pulled half a pig and half a sheep.
There was also a lot of food and drinks sent to Fang Xiang.
I saw it with my own eyes, the room was almost full of space.
If you can follow Fang Xiang, your future life will be wonderful, wow."
The third aunt seemed to be complaining that Qin Huairu didn't know how to live, but she immediately turned the topic to Fang Xiang.
Both implicit and implicit words began to play tricks on him.
"What are you talking about, Auntie? I'm leaving now."
Qin Jingru was a little surprised at first, but then she saw that it brought up Fang Xiang.
Her face immediately turned red with shame, and she turned around and ran into the middle courtyard.
"Hey, Jingru is here? Come on, come on, let me see you. I haven't seen you for a while.
Isn't she much more beautiful now?"
Before Qin Jingru entered the Jia family, she was seen by an old lady who was washing clothes at the door.
Just like the third aunt, she immediately pulled Qin Jingru aside.
"You have such a good foundation, girl. I haven't seen you for a few days, and you look much more rosy and beautiful.
Did you come over to see Fang Xiang just now?"
An old lady started by praising him a few words, and then immediately talked about Fang Xiang.
"Yeah, I've seen it."
Qin Jingru's red face looked even redder at this moment.
"Let me tell you, Fang Xiang is much more successful now than before.
Ordinary people usually don’t have enough to eat or warm clothes to wear.
Do you know that when Fang misses home, he weighs over 200 kilograms of meat.
They even drove over specially to deliver it.”
The first aunt is exactly the same as the third aunt, but her words and actions reveal that Fang wants to be different from others.
"Well, Auntie Three just told me."
Qin Jingru was a little confused. Why were the third aunt and the first aunt both talking about this?
“So, Fang Xiang has this child, and he doesn’t know who is lucky enough to follow him.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any children in my family.
If I had a girl in my family, I would definitely tell Fang Xiang about her.
Also, you know, nowadays, the two directors of the steel mill have to look at Fang Xiang's face."
An old lady also started to join in the fun.
This made Qin Jingru stunned.
I used to think Fang Xiang was good-looking, had a house and a car, and was a college student in Shuimu.
You can get more than 100 yuan a month as salary.
He was the most outstanding peer she had ever met in her life.
No! You can even drop the word "same age".
For a woman who is born to admire the strong, it is inevitable to fall in love.
How come I haven’t seen you for a while? You’ve become even better now.
While listening to the aunt's nagging, I was secretly surprised.
"Hey, Jingru is here?!"
Just when an old lady was pulling Qin Jingru aside to whisper something.
Sha Zhu came out of the house and saw it.
Said hello.
"Yeah, Brother Shazhu."
Qin Jingru quickly responded.
“I won’t talk to you anymore, go to Jia’s house first.
Remember what Auntie told you, whoever can follow Fang Xiang is definitely blessed with ten lifetimes of cultivation."
When the aunt saw Shazhu coming out, she quickly whispered something in her ear.
So she continued to hold the basin and started washing clothes.
At this time, Qin Jingru's mind was already confused, and she had forgotten what she was doing here.
Subconsciously, he pushed open the door of Jia's house.
When I helped the deaf old lady prepare dinner in the evening, the two of them sat around the stove drinking porridge.
"You came here this time to see Fang Xiang, right?"
The deaf old lady suddenly said something to Qin Jingru.
"Um..."
Qin Jingru is closer to the deaf old lady than to the first and third aunts.
So I admitted it honestly.
"Then do you know that boy Fang Xiang has a girlfriend?"
The deaf old lady suddenly threw out a sentence.
Qin Jingru froze instantly as if she was struck by lightning.
"Fang Xiang is such an outstanding young man.
To say that he is the best among the younger generation in Nanluoguxiang is an understatement.
Among all the young people in the capital city.
Fang Xiang can also be counted.
It's not surprising that a man like this has a girlfriend.
As for me, old lady, I have never met Fang Xiang’s girlfriend.
But I can also guess that his girlfriend not only has a good family background, but is also definitely good-looking.
Otherwise, how can I be worthy of Fang Xiang, don’t you think? "
Qin Jingru's every move was seen by the deaf old lady.
But unlike the first and third aunts, she stabbed the knife directly into Qin Jingru's weakest spot.
"If this kind of person lived a few decades ago, having three wives and four concubines would be considered rare.
How many high-ranking officials and wealthy people would like to send their daughters to Fang Xiang's home.
Tell me, does Fang Xiang need women? "
The deaf old lady not only stabbed him once, but also stabbed him again in the heart.
Qin Jingru seemed to have stopped breathing.
Tears rolled down unconsciously.
"So now, do you still want to follow Fang Xiang?"
The deaf old lady spoke slowly and leisurely, but every word hit Qin Jingru's heart.
“You don’t have to answer, I also know that you can’t let him go.
Don't even mention now, you will never be able to let him go in this life.
If you don't have a legitimate status, would you still be willing to follow him?"
Looking at Qin Jingru's defense being completely torn apart.
The deaf old lady's whispers seemed to come from hell, echoing in Qin Jingru's ears.
Silent night.
Qin Jingru was lying on the bed, thinking of a girl she met at Fang Xiang's home that day.
She is the same age as her, but she is taller, prettier and more elegant than her.
Just standing at the door of Fang Xiang's house, I felt a little ashamed of myself just by looking at her.
Qin Jingru remembered clearly that the girl came to find Fang Xiang.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have stood there for such a long time, staring at me.
At that time, I foolishly went up to ask the girl who she was looking for.
Later I thought, how could I be so stupid?
That girl is the girlfriend Fang Xiang mentioned, right?
Come to think of it, only a girl who is so beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy, no, more beautiful than a fairy, can be worthy of Fang Xiang.
It’s ridiculous that I once thought I was the most beautiful person in the area.
It turns out that compared to others, I am just an unsophisticated country girl.
But why can’t I let go of this thought? . . . . .
How can I possibly compete with others?
At this moment, every word that the deaf old lady said can be heard again in my ears.
"Would I?"
PS: As a preview, in the next 2 chapters, we will be entering the BJ212 project.
In the subsequent drafts, there are not many scenes about the Siheyuan.
So I want to ask, do you still like to read the stories about Siheyuan?
If you like, I'll insert more.
If you don't like it, then just keep going in the heavy industry line and never look back.
