Chapter 385 Difficult?

The third one arrives.

"Is Chu Xia really back?" Lin Yanqiu came down from the stairs with a face full of surprise, "I heard your voice, and I thought I heard it wrong, but I didn't expect it was really you!"

"Mom, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that Lin Yanqiu's footsteps were a little staggering downstairs, Chu Xia hurried to meet her, staring at her legs and feet worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay..." Lin Yanqiu smiled shyly, "I had an appointment with some old friends the day before yesterday. I was thinking about not letting people laugh at me as a housewife who was getting more and more sloppy, so I wore high heels, which ended up hurting my ankle. It's twisted."

Helping her to sit down on the sofa, Chu Xia took off her shoes, and saw that the ankle of her left foot was swollen thicker than her calf, and she couldn't help but gasped: "Mom, the heel of your shoes is How tall?"

"It's only this high." Lin Yanqiu measured it with his fingers, and it looked like a little over three centimeters. In early summer, he had a black line, and later generations would wear a height of more than ten centimeters, so they might not have twisted their feet. How about this?

Luo Xiaoqiong stepped forward to take a look, and then gasped, the skin on the ankle was swollen and transparent, it is really a skill to be able to twist the ankle like this.

Lin Yanqiu was holding a pair of black cloth shoes. In early summer, she went upstairs and took off the cotton slippers that Zhao Yulan had made for her according to her drawing, and helped Lin Yanqiu put them on, "It will be more comfortable this way."

Lin Yanqiu tried to move her feet and nodded repeatedly: "Well, these shoes are comfortable, Xia, are these shoes made by your mother?"

Chu Xia nodded: "Yeah. It's convenient to pull it in winter." She said with an embarrassed smile, "I'm not good at sewing. I don't know how to do it."

Lin Yanqiu poked her forehead amusedly, "You are my precious daughter-in-law. How can I let you do this job?" Then she called Mama Liu to come over, and took off the shoe on her right foot, "Look at this , go back to Yang’s shoe store to order a few pairs, let’s start with two pairs for each person.”

"Yes, ma'am." Liu Ma quickly went to get a piece of paper and pen, traced the shape very quickly, and returned the shoe cover to Lin Yanqiu's feet.

What a pity, alas. It's a pity... Looking at the shoes taken away by Liu Ma, Chu Xia's face is full of pain. If it weren't for the fact that business is not allowed in this day and age, she really wants to open a factory that produces slippers. Such a convenient thing, there must be many people Buy, money... fly away with wings~

"What's the matter?" Lin Yanqiu asked suspiciously when she found the little daughter-in-law's expression was a bit strange. "Did Mama Liu draw something wrong?" Upon hearing this, Mama Liu quickly handed over the shoes, "Miss San, take a look."

"No no no.

Your drawing is quite right..." Chu Xia smiled sheepishly, "I...I'm just annoyed that I can't do needlework, or else. I can make a pair for my grandparents, grandparents and parents. "

"pu~!" Luo Xiaoqiong burst out laughing, she really didn't expect someone whose needlework was uglier than a centipede's feet. He had the nerve to say such a thing.

Chu Xia glared at her: "No joke!"

Luo Xiaoqiong quickly covered her mouth and made a zip movement. Quiet.

"I don't know how to do needlework either. What's so embarrassing?" Lin Yanqiu was afraid that her daughter-in-law would lose face, so she dragged herself out as a back up.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Mrs. Zhou coughed "painfully". Daughter-in-law, you have done everything for your daughter-in-law. There is no comparison between you and me...

The corners of Liu Ma's mouth were also twitching all the time. If the eldest lady said that she can't do needlework, who would dare to say that she can do needlework? The soles of her shoes are better than those made by the master of Yang's shoe shop, and she also said that she can't...

Chu Xia is not stupid, she can tell what's going on by looking at everyone's expressions, and she feels guilty in her heart, seeing how she lied, she directly made her mother-in-law follow her.

But then I also figured out one thing. In this day and age, many people have problems eating, so how can they have spare money to buy slippers? It is estimated that no matter how cheap it is, ordinary people would not be willing to buy it, right? In the evening, after washing my feet and pulling on my shoes, I got into bed, and I still need fur slippers?

Fortunately, she has self-knowledge, otherwise she will lose money in all chances of doing business.

"Father, brother and sister-in-law, have they all gone to work?" Chu Xia changed the subject.

"Yeah, your dad has returned to the army, and he probably won't be back for a month or two. Your elder brother and sister-in-law thought you would get home at night, so they went to work. I wanted your sister-in-law to ask for leave to take care of her health at home. She said that she was bored after being idle for so long. I was in a panic, so I had to let her go back to work at the post office, alas..." Lin Yanqiu sighed helplessly, "I want to transfer her to an easier department, but she still doesn't go, she is really stubborn."

"Sister-in-law is afraid that others will gossip, right?" Chu Xia was just about to say that the post office is not busy anyway, but when she was about to say something, she immediately realized it and quickly silenced it.

In this age of keeping in touch by writing letters and sending telegrams, what else is the post office busy?

"Yeah, your sister-in-law is very strong and saves face. When she married into our family, many people said that she is trying to make our family happy, but she is so strong..." Afraid that the younger daughter-in-law would also use this as a benchmark, Lin Yanqiu Quickly told, "Xia, we can't think that way, it's fate to be a family, and we can't tire ourselves to death just because we're afraid of outsiders talking nonsense."

Chu Xia has a black thread all over her head, how did this get on her head? The problem is, if she doesn't work hard, how can parents live here comfortably? While struggling with how to answer, Jing Zhe rescued her.

The arrival of the whole family of the Jing family surprised both Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou. After politely getting up and saying hello, Chu Xia put a few things on the tea table, and then detailed about her parents. Say it again.

In the end, she looked at everyone expectantly, hoping that someone could give her a clear answer. People in this era are very obsessed with the concept of roots. Although her father said that he has a daughter and a wife and doesn't want to think about anything else, he still cares about the fact that he doesn't know where the roots are.

Several elders picked up the things one by one and looked at them, but in the end they all shook their heads without exception, saying that they had never seen these things, nor heard of any son or daughter who had been lost for nearly forty years.

The only hope now is Jing Mo Nian. Knowing Chu Xia's mood, Mrs. Zhou asked Jing Zhe to take Chu Xia to Jing Mo Nian to see if he could think of anything.

...

Jing Mo Nian had just had the operation, and was sitting in the office with his eyes closed to rest his mind. When he heard the sound, he quickly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was his son and Chu Xia Luo Xiaoqiong, he showed a faint smile: "You came back so early?"

"Dad, I have something to trouble you." Jing Zhe said straightforwardly.

Chu Xia hurriedly handed the things to Jing Mo Nian, before she could speak, he saw Jing Mo Nian stroking the blood-red bracelet excitedly, with a dazed expression...

This must be acquaintance? ! Chu Xia swallowed subconsciously. Although she felt that it was not good to interrupt the other party, she still couldn't help asking: "Uncle Jing, you... do you know the owner of this object?"

After calming down, Jing Mo Nian said: "I don't know the owner of this object, but I know someone who wants this object, but the one she got should be another one."

"Dad, I remember that Uncle Jiang has a pair of chopsticks like this, right?" Jing Zhe handed the chopsticks to Jing Monian, "These chopsticks and this bracelet should belong to the same family, right?"

"Where did you get this?" Jing Mo Nian did not answer his son's words, but looked at Chu Xia excitedly.

Ever since I met Jing Mo Nian, it was the first time I saw him lose his composure, Chu Xia knew that he should have found the right person, so he quickly told about his father's life experience.

When she mentioned that the couple lost their lives to save Old Man Lin's child, Jing Mo Nian collapsed. After a long while, he raised his head and looked at Chu Xia: "Son, please let me calm down first. Tell you again, okay?"

"Okay." Chu Xia hurriedly replied, how dare she not, no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't be in a hurry at this moment, just by looking at Jing Mo Nian's expression, it must have something to do with his previous affairs. When a person has this kind of expression, he usually cannot get what he wants, and his thoughts are eternal.

Time passed minute by minute, Jing Mo Nian always maintained a sitting posture, like a stone sculpture, motionless, Chu Xia felt that his breathing was going to be difficult, so he simply pulled Luo Xiaoqiong back out.

After leaving the door, Luo Xiaoqiong let out a long breath, lowered his voice and said to Chu Xia: "Hey, why do I have the feeling that father and son have encountered the same thing?"

"You are the only one who is smart." Chu Xia glared at her, not bothering to talk to her, and she is not blind, does she need to remind her?

"Actually, I want to say that my father is not as free and easy as a son. Although Jing Zhe still has a bit of hazy feelings for you, he can already treat you as a younger sister calmly. I believe that one day, he will turn you into a complete girl. sister.

But this Uncle Jing probably won't be able to get out in this life, ah, do you think Aunt Zhu knows? If she knew, would she not be able to bear it? "

Chu Xia was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't expect this, did Zhu Xinqin know about Jing Mo Nian's previous affair?

She began to try hard to recall the attitude of Mrs. Jing and Mrs. Jing when they saw these things. Is there a possibility that the old couple knew these things, but they deliberately didn't say it out of concern for their daughter-in-law?

If that's the case, this matter may embarrass Jing Mo Nian.

But, father is very concerned about this matter, what should she do?

When he was in a dilemma, Jing Zhe came out of the office and waved to the two of them: "Come in."

Chu Xia hurriedly said: "Brother, wait a moment." She took a few steps forward and whispered, "If this will make Uncle Jing difficult, why don't you talk to Uncle Jing, and then I will write to tell you the truth. My parents, specifically, wait for Zhou Mikang to come back and then do it, okay?"
