Chapter 121 Era: Rough Leader Coaxes 34 Every Night
"My mother also said she wants to eat authentic country dishes. Can you cook some for us to try?" Zhou Xue continued with a smile.
With that said, if Xia Xizhi didn't do it, it would seem like she was not giving her mother face, and was putting Xia Xizhi in a difficult position.
At this moment, before Xia Xizhi could speak, Chief Lu bluntly spat out three words, "She won't."
Chief Lu glanced at Zhou Xue coldly with his sharp eyes, stood up and said in a serious tone,
"Aunt Zhang wants to eat country food, I can make it."
Zhou Xue quickly pulled him back, "No, no, Brother Lu, please sit down quickly. How can a grown man like you go into the kitchen?"
"She comes from a peasant family and she can't even cook... How can a woman not know how to cook?
"Miss Xia, I have to say something to you. Men work outside and women work inside. Brother Lu has a hard time outside, you should feel sorry for him. Besides, how can you, a country girl, not know how to cook? Don't you country girls have to work in the fields since you were young?"
Although Zhou Xue's tone was gentle, her superior's attitude, eyes and words all showed that she looked down on Xia Xizhi from the bottom of her heart.
Xia Xizhi raised his eyebrows slightly. This woman was Zhou Xue who had been waiting for Chief Lu.
Originally, she was very curious about whether the girls in the art troupe of this era were as beautiful and lively in military uniforms as those in period dramas. She also felt sorry for Zhou Xue's persistence in waiting for one person for so many years.
But at this moment those thoughts disappeared. This Zhou Xue was obviously not as beautiful as she had imagined.
Since she doesn't take her seriously, why should she be polite to her?
Doesn't she like Chief Lu? Then just piss her off to death...
Xia Xizhi didn't wait for Zhou Xue to finish her words. Suddenly, she hugged Lu Xiao's arm softly and began to act like a spoiled child, with a look of grievance and innocence...
"Hubby, I can cook, but it's my first time here as a guest, how can I ask a guest to cook? Does she look down on me? Wuwuwuwu~~~~"
As Xia Xizhi spoke, he leaned against Lu Xiao like a boneless person, almost lying on him. His little finger scratched his old fountain pen, tickling it, deliberately showing it to Zhou Xue.
The alluring call of "husband" made Lu Xiao's pupils suddenly darken, his lower abdomen tensed, and he even held his breath. He sat down and involuntarily put his arm around Xia Xizhi. He coughed lightly to cover up his restlessness and glanced sideways at Zhou Xue.
He frowned slightly and said indifferently, "For the sake of the political commissar, I don't want to say anything. This is my lover, please respect her."
Zhou Xue's face suddenly turned ugly.
His eyes fell on Xia Xizhi's curled fingers, and he gritted his teeth. She was indeed a vixen, and could only seduce Lu Xiao in this way. How hateful.
Lu Xiao is so smart, why would he look for something that looks restless?
But she knew she couldn't continue talking, so she could only adjust her expression and said with a smile,
"Brother Lu, that's not what I meant. Miss Xia may have misunderstood."
"I just wanted to try some rural food. I didn't mean to disrespect her."
As he said this, he sighed helplessly, seeming very helpless.
"Hey, Brother Lu, I'm straightforward and I speak directly, you know. That's why I don't like playing with girls. They're not as simple-minded as boys..."
Oh, this is still a man's tea?
No matter what kind of tea it is, Xia Xizhi is not spoiled at all.
Blinking, she started to talk back in a delicate tone, "But I don't know you well, why are you so straightforward with me on our first meeting? You are so rude~~"
"Are you trying to bully me, a newcomer, under the guise of being straightforward?"
As she spoke, she hugged Chief Lu's arm tighter, "Oh, honey, I'm scared. Look at her eyes. It's like she wants to eat me..."
Lu Xiao couldn't help wanting to laugh. He knew Xia Xizhi did it on purpose, but he still patted her head lovingly and said, "Don't be afraid."
Then he turned around and looked at Zhou Xue coldly, his eyes full of warning.
Zhou Xue was about to explode with anger. How could this country girl be so sharp-tongued?
When Zhang Yuxia heard the voice, she thought to herself that this girl was very good at talking, and Xue'er was no match for her... She couldn't be allowed to continue.
She walked into the house as if nothing had happened and interrupted them with a smile, "It's time to eat, Xue'er, come and serve the food."
.....
During the meal, Zhou Xue did not give Xia Xizhi any good look, and kept picking up food for Lu Xiao as if she was not there.
"Brother Lu, this braised pork is my mother's specialty, you should try it."
Lu Xiao frowned and put it back to her.
"Sorry, I already told you not to serve me food. I'm not used to eating food that others serve me."
He turned around and picked up a piece of braised pork for Xia Xizhi with chopsticks, "Try it."
Xia Xizhi couldn't help laughing. Zhou Xue liked Chief Lu, but this big chief seemed not only uninterested in her, but even annoyed.
I have to say, she is happy...
"Thank you, husband," Xia Xizhi smiled sweetly and picked up a few pieces of food for him with her chopsticks.
Chief Lu ate it in just a few bites. Seeing this, Zhou Xue's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and she was so angry that she almost overturned the table.
Zhou Ziqiu's face didn't look very good either. He forced a smile and drank with Lu Xiao to change the subject.
But the atmosphere during the rest of the meal was subtle, but no one pointed it out.
.......
The next day, a radio broadcast in Beijing criticizing the incident immediately attracted the attention of the entire city.
The target of criticism was Meng Lingling, who was accused of slandering the children of martyrs due to personal grudges, etc. This broadcast was ordered by Chief Lu.
In less than one morning, the whole Beijing knew about Meng Lingling. Meng Xingjing and his wife were so embarrassed that they couldn't stand being pointed at whenever they went out, so they asked for leave and stayed at home, not daring to go out.
Meng Lingling was so angry that she started throwing things again, "Bitch! Bitch! It's all because of her!"
Suddenly noticing the fallen pen, Meng Lingling's expression brightened up again. With this pen, she would be able to turn things around sooner or later...
Her eyes rolled around. No, she had to find that man as soon as possible. When she became the richest woman in the world, then she could crush Xia Xizhi to death as easily as crushing an ant...
The Beijing Suburban Military Region's annual art performance always allows families to attend. This year, Commander Lu got married, and his subordinates were clamoring for him to bring his sister-in-law along.
Chief Lu asked Xia Xizhi for his opinion, and Xia Xizhi nodded in agreement.
Since other people's wives are going, it's natural for her to go too. It's not like she's not presentable.
The cultural performances are performed by the girls from the art troupe, and everyone else just needs to watch the show.
The young single guys in the military camp are most looking forward to this day...
Xia Xizhi sat with a group of military wives. As soon as she entered, she attracted everyone's attention.
A group of young men were stunned.
"Oh my god, isn't it said that the chief's wife is a country girl? Is this from the countryside?"
"What? Do you look down on people from the countryside? Can't there be beautiful girls from the countryside?"
"Oh, that's not what I meant. I think she looks like a fairy, a little too beautiful, white and tender. She doesn't look like someone who does farm work, but like a pampered young lady."
"That's right... no wonder the leader got married without a word. Anyone would have to marry her right away."
"Everyone says Zhou Xue has been waiting for the leader. What should she do?"
"What can we do? Just let it go. She's been waiting for the chief, so he has to marry her? Besides, she's not as pretty as the chief's wife... Hey, who would you marry if it were you?"
“Of course…”
Zhou Xue, who was passing by and heard this, turned pale and wanted to curse, but held back.
Thinking of something, his face suddenly brightened up. What's the point of being good-looking? When that country bumpkin Xia Xizhi gets humiliated in public, everyone will know who is the right match for Lu Xiao...
