Chapter two hundred and fortieth one night
The gifts given to Queen Mother Lu and Lao Chen were all chosen by Kong Xuehua, who was very thoughtful. Apart from saying a few words, what to spend so much money, the old couple basically couldn't find any problems, and they were only satisfied.
It was like the couple's impression of Kong Xue after they actually met her today.
Beautiful, dignified, virtuous, good cooking skills, good at speaking, etc., almost have advantages, and it is really difficult to find any shortcomings. Even under the conditions of Kushan, there is no trace of disgust on Kong Xue's face.
The family talked and laughed and looked at the gifts. Queen Mother Lu burned hot water. After several people washed up briefly, she went to Chen Jing's bedroom to take the new bedding that she had bought specifically to Tangcheng.
Chen Jing’s bedroom is the largest and best at home. Empress Dowager Lu naturally arranged for Kong Xue to sleep in this room, while Chen Jing went to the vacant small room at home.
At the same time, Chen Jing took his elder sister to the yard outside and whispered.
"Sister Xue, my parents seem to be very satisfied with you." Chen Jing held Kong Xue's hand and looked up at the night sky with praise on his handsome face.
Kong Xue slightly tilted her head to his shoulder and said seriously: "Well, but it would be better if Aunt Lu had the attitude towards me as good as Aunt Xia."
At this stage, Yu Meixia's attitude towards Kong Xue is indeed much more friendly.
Chen Jing smiled awkwardly when he heard this.
Kong Xue chuckled softly again and whispered: "Xiao Chen, I want to sleep with Aunt Lu tonight."
"Um?"
"I want to have a good chat with Aunt Lu tonight."
Chen Jing thought for a while and nodded and replied, "Okay." He knew that the eldest sister was working very hard to fill her favorability.
After the two returned to the house, Kong Xue took the initiative to walk into the bedroom to help, and said that she wanted to sleep with Queen Mother Lu. The latter did not refuse, but agreed with a smile.
I guess Empress Dowager Lu actually had the same thoughts and wanted to have a good chat with Kong Xue.
..............
The next day it was dawn.
Although she had been chatting with Kong Xue for a long time last night, Empress Dowager Lu woke up under the influence of the regular biological clock for many years. She originally wanted to get up gently and not disturb Kong Xue.
But the next moment, Empress Dowager Lu was surprised that Kong Xue had already gotten up.
Then, Empress Dowager Lu realized something and hurriedly put on her clothes and walked into the kitchen quickly.
Sure enough, Kong Xue was preparing breakfast in front of the stove.
Looking at her back, Empress Dowager Lu was a little complicated. Chen Jing's grandparents passed away early. For decades, the breakfast every day was basically made by Empress Dowager Lu. She had been used to it for a long time.
But today, Kong Xue got up one step earlier than her to make breakfast.
This feeling not only made Queen Mother Lu not very adaptable, and felt that her job was stolen, but also made her feel very relieved and happy.
"Aunt Lu?" Kong Xue found Empress Dowager Lu at this time, turned around and smiled and shouted.
Empress Dowager Lu came to her senses when she heard the sound, and then she found that Kong Xue's fair face was stained with some carbon black at this moment. She hurriedly took a few steps closer and asked, "Did it happen when making a fire?"
Kong Xue was slightly stunned, reached out to wipe her cheeks, looked at the charcoal black on her fingers before she realized it, and chuckled, "Well, it probably is, I haven't made such a fire before, and I'm not very good at it."
Because the environment of Kushan and natural gas are not available, Chen Jing's family still uses traditional firewood stoves.
The method of making fire in this fire stove is difficult, but it is not easy, because it requires some skills. It is indeed difficult for people who have never used it to successfully create fire.
Kong Xue probably spent some effort just now.
Queen Mother Lu looked at the girl in front of her, suddenly smiled happily, raised her hand to wipe the charcoal black on her face, and said, "Xiaoxue, you are really good, you can call me, or Chen Jing if you can't make a fire.
Get up and help.”
Kong Xue was stunned when she heard this, and then an extremely happy smile appeared on her dignified and pretty face.
"Aunt Lu, I learned it myself."
"What a silly girl."
Afterwards, Empress Dowager Lu talked and laughed and helped Kong Xue make breakfast together.
A few minutes later, Chen Jing also walked into the kitchen and was a little surprised to see his mother and Kong Xue preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
The reason why Chen Jing got up so early was because he guessed that his elder sister might get up early to prepare breakfast, and was preparing to help, but he got up a little late.
However, looking at his mother and Kong Xue who were talking and laughing, Chen Jing felt that he had gotten a little late, and it seemed that it was just right.
"Mom, what are you eating in the morning?" Chen Jing walked over and asked with a smile.
Seeing Chen Jing, Empress Dowager Lu and Kong Xue looked at him at the same time. The former replied: "You don't know how to look in the pot? You are so embarrassed. Xiaoxue doesn't know how to use the firewood stove at home. Don't you know how to help her?
”
Chen Jing was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes showed a look of surprise.
Xiaoxue?
Yesterday, Empress Dowager Lu was still shouting at Xiao Kong. After only one night, the name changed quietly.
Xiao Kong looks polite and Xiaoxue looks close. There are quite a difference here, and it also represents the attitude of Empress Dowager Lu towards Kong Xue.
"Uh, I'm getting up late." Chen Jing responded to this mother, while quietly looking at his elder sister, with inquiries in his eyes.
Kong Xue also smiled happily and blinked at him secretly. Her dignified and pretty face was a bit of girlish pride, as if she was saying, "Xiao Chen, am I awesome?"
"I'm so embarrassed to say it!" Empress Dowager Lu glared at Chen Jing angrily, then smiled and said to Kong Xue with a smile: "Xiaoxue, you must take good care of him in the future and don't let him be too proud at home, do you know?"
Chen Jing: “…………”
Silently returning, Chen Jing was actually only happy in his heart at this moment.
To be honest, he thought that it would be a matter of time before he could win over the favorability of Queen Mother Lu with his elder sister's excellence, but he never expected that the elder sister did it in just one night.
From the change in the name of Empress Dowager Lu, to teaching Kong Xue to take care of Chen Jing in the future, all this shows that she has fully recognized Kong Xue in her heart.
