Chapter 1039 Pine Nuts
Chapter 1039 Pine Nuts
"With Xia Xia's abilities, she can live a good life whether she's married or not. Why do you have to worry about these things? Let me tell you, you're already lucky enough to have a daughter like Xia Xia. What else do you want? What's there to be dissatisfied about? Why do you have to do those annoying things? You have a good life but you have to make yourself unhappy?"
Yi Shuishui looked at Li Sanlang with disdain. She really didn't like others interfering in Li Mingxia's affairs, even if it was really for Li Mingxia's good, even if it was right, she just didn't like it.
What's more, what Li Sanlang said now sounded like bullshit, which made people even more annoyed.
"Li Sanlang, I don't like talking nonsense with stupid people. The reason I'm telling you all this today is because you are Xia Xia's father. Otherwise, I wouldn't have the patience to talk to you slowly."
"From now on, don't say anything more about Xia Xia. This is the last time. Otherwise, I will make my aunt's promise to break off relations come true."
"Don't doubt it, if I don't have this ability, I wouldn't dare to say that I can protect Li Mingxia and my aunt." Yi Shuishui snorted coldly, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
"You can try it." Yi Shuishui didn't know what she suddenly thought of, and said to Li Sanlang, with a little more expectation in her eyes.
Yes, looking forward to it.
Yi Shuishui will not give opportunities to someone who provokes her again and again.
"He's just a county magistrate. Not to mention that Aunt and Xia Xia completely meet the requirements, even if they don't, it's just a matter of a word from me."
Yi Shuishui's voice was not loud, but the room was quiet. There was no other sound except Li Sanlang's heavy breathing due to anger.
County magistrate, just one word?
Li Mingxia keenly caught this sentence.
It can make Xiao Tianyue avoid the sharp edge, and at the same time can say "he is just a county magistrate"...
If it were someone else, Li Mingxia would probably consider whether he was bragging, but Yi Shuishui was not that kind of person, so he basically ruled out this possibility.
Maybe I was wrong from the beginning. Yi Shuishui was not a rich girl, but most likely the daughter of an official.
And he is definitely not a small official. He must be a well-known figure in the capital, otherwise he would not be able to swear that he can protect himself in the capital.
However, Li Mingxia still didn't plan to ask. He would know it naturally when the time came.
"Shuishui and I agree. You don't need to be so stubborn. No one here owes you anything. Who are you showing off to? If you like to show off so much, go to the old house. Your father and mother are not here. Show off however you want! No one here wants to see it!" Zhang saw that Li Sanlang was very angry with Yi Shuishui, and spoke bluntly.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhang now feels that Yi Shuishui is much better and more considerate than Li Sanlang!
At least Yi Shuishui was really sincere in beating her own daughter, without any exaggeration!
Look at this Li Sanlang, he is the biological father of his daughter! But what kind of things did he do?
"I'm not forcing you to give an answer right now. Just think about it and tell me tomorrow." Zhang issued an ultimatum.
Li Mingxia knew that today's meeting would end here. She thought that there should be enough time, so she would eat mutton as she had wanted in the evening. After all, she had been craving it for so long, and she really couldn't bear to not eat it.
Just as Li Mingxia was about to stand up, there was a knock on the door.
Li Zhengpin opened the door and saw Yi Xuan, Xiao Tianyue, Twilight, and... Zhima?
Li Mingxia then realized that Zhima was not in the room just now, but why was Zhima staying with them?
As soon as Zhima entered the room, he glanced at Li Mingxia first, then went to look at Zhang. After confirming that there was no problem with both of them, he breathed a sigh of relief. After hesitating for a moment, he rubbed against Li Mingxia's side, whispered for a while, and then looked at Li Mingxia's face nervously.
Although there was a reason why he stayed in town and didn't come back in time, Zhima was still afraid that Li Mingxia would be unhappy.
"I see. You did a good job. You dared to stay in town because you knew I was at home. Otherwise, you would have come back a long time ago, right?" Li Mingxia saw Zhima's guilty conscience and comforted him with a smile.
Zhima nodded vigorously. That's right! The lady really understands herself!
"Don't worry, miss. I will take good care of the lady!" Zhima bent down and stuffed something into Li Mingxia's hand, then went to Zhang.
Yi Shuishui looked at it with some curiosity, "What did your little maid give you? It's so mysterious?"
Li Mingxia looked at the square handkerchief folded in his hand. He didn't want to open it right away, but seeing Yi Shuishui staring at it, he knew that if he didn't open it and let Yi Shuishui see what was going on, Yi Shuishui would definitely keep chasing him and asking questions.
"I don't know what this girl gave me. It's so mysterious. If you are curious, let's take a look together." Li Mingxia said with a smile.
Yi Shuishui smiled and didn't say yes or no. She just continued to look at the handkerchief in Li Mingxia's hand. The meaning was self-evident.
Li Mingxia didn't bother with her. After opening the handkerchief, he found that it was not a valuable item, but a bunch of peeled pine nuts.
They are round and full, without a single one damaged. You can tell at a glance that a lot of effort was put into peeling them, and the person who peeled them also put a lot of thought into it, otherwise not every one of them would be completely intact.
Li Mingxia suddenly felt the pine nuts in his hand were heavy.
This silly girl was still thinking about me when she was in town. She peeled the pine nuts one by one, wrapped them carefully, brought them back and gave them to me.
Li Mingxia vaguely remembered that a few days ago he casually said that he wanted to eat pine nuts, and sesame seeds actually registered in his mind.
"Pine nuts? Do you like pine nuts?" Yi Shuishui thought it was something interesting or rare and delicious, but she didn't expect it to be just ordinary pine nuts.
"I don't like it very much. I want to eat it occasionally, but I definitely like the pine nuts peeled like this." Li Mingxia said with a smile.
Yi Shuishui frowned and watched Li Mingxia wrap up the pine nuts and put them back in his arms, wondering what he was thinking.
"Did everything go well today?"
