Chapter 22 Clarification
Aunt Liu slapped her thigh and suddenly had a good idea: "I'll ask her to take off the powder. She's darker than you, so people won't be able to see her, right?"

Liu Lirong thought it was feasible.

When you introduce Li Yingtang, just say she is the wife of a college student.

When people see that the college student’s wife is not as pretty as her, they will definitely fall in love with her.

After the aunt and nephew had discussed it, Aunt Liu went to the health center to find Li Yingtang.

Li Yingtang thought that Aunt Liu had come to her house to question her. She went over the words she should use to deal with the problem in her mind and smiled calmly, "Hello, Aunt Liu. Does the makeup I put on for your niece look good?"

"She's beautiful. I'm sure she'll be liked this time. Oh, Xiao Qin's wife, I have something to trouble you with."

Li Yingtang's eyelids jumped: "What's the matter?"

Aunt Liu hesitated, "It's like this. I want you to wash off the powder on your face and hands, accompany my Li Rong on a blind date, and give her some advice."

Li Yingtang was stunned: "Wash the powder off your face and hands? What do you mean?"

Aunt Liu smiled and said, "I heard from Li Rong that you look fairer only after applying powder. Don't worry, I promise not to tell anyone about your bad behavior."

Li Yingtang was annoyed: "I helped her put on makeup out of kindness, but she didn't even say a word of thanks. Instead, she said that I was white because I put on powder. Who is it for me to say whether I am white or black? What kind of person is she? What does her blind date have to do with me? Why should I accompany her? She even made herself ugly to set off her. Who is she? If she doesn't like her in the future, won't she blame me for ruining her happiness? I can't afford that."

Aunt Liu's smile froze on her face. She realized that she had offended someone and quickly apologized: "Hey, Xiao Qin's wife, don't be angry, I didn't mean that."

"Get out!" Li Yingtang got angry.

Aunt Liu left angrily.

I was thinking, how could they turn against each other so suddenly?

Qin Xian, who was in the infirmary next door, heard the noise and went out to check: "Aunt Liu, did you and Tangtang have a fight?"

Aunt Liu seemed to have found her backbone, pulling him aside and anxiously explaining, "I didn't mean to do that. This is my niece's blind date, isn't it? I wanted to ask your wife to come along and give her some advice. I was also afraid that your wife would be too outstanding and people would look at her differently and choose her. So I told her to wash off the powder on her face and hands. If she looks darker, people will be able to see my niece."

Qin Xian narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why does your niece want Tangtang to be her foil when she goes on a blind date?"

"You are a college student, and that boy has never been to school." Aunt Liu didn't say anything else.

Qin Xian understood what Aunt Liu meant. A college student's partner was not very good. You, an uneducated person, were lucky enough to find a girl who was prettier than the college student's wife. "Aunt Liu, I have to clarify this with you:

First, Tangtang's whiteness is natural and does not need to be embellished. Her things have their own uses, and today your niece has benefited from them.

Secondly, even if she is dark, her facial features are there, and your niece will not be outdone by her beauty.

The third one is your niece. She has been unsuccessful in blind dates many times. Didn't you ask her to look for the reasons? She knew that her feet couldn't fit into Tangtang's shoes, but she squeezed in. If I hadn't asked her to do it, the shoes would have been broken.

You and I live not far from each other, about 40 to 50 meters away, so we are neighbors. You helped me a lot when I first came here, and I have always been grateful to you, but you cannot take advantage of this gratitude to make excessive demands on Tangtang.

I won’t say much about what happened today, and I hope you will think twice before doing anything in the future.”

The long paragraph of accusation, although spoken in a gentle tone but with a tough attitude, not only shut Aunt Liu up, but also made her break out in a cold sweat and run back home.

Liu Lirong stepped forward and said, "Aunt, did that woman agree?"

Aunt Liu pointed at her and said, "You, you really pissed me off. You forced yourself to wear someone else's shoes because you couldn't wear them. What do you want to do? Are you planning to let me take responsibility for them if they get broken? You almost fooled me. I've seen that young wife wash her face and hands, and she's never had any black marks on her."

"She deliberately gave me a pair of small shoes to wear, but then I couldn't wear them. Didn't I not wear them? And she has so much powder, who knows if she can put it on without fading?"

The bedroom door of the health station.

Qin Xian knocked on the door gently: "Tangtang, what do you want for dinner?"

Li Yingtang: "I'm full of anger."

"I've already sent her away for you. She shouldn't dare to do it again." Qin Xian said, "Stewed crucian carp with radish and pancakes?"

Li Yingtang was curious: "Fish can be stewed with radish? Is it delicious?" "I ate it often when I was a child. It suits my taste."

"Then I'll try it too." Li Yingtang agreed, opened the door, and glanced at the infirmary through the glass window. There was a patient on an IV drip. "It's not right to leave when you have a patient. I'll go prepare the ingredients. Where do you pick the radishes?"

Qin Xian curled his lips and said, "The open space behind the health station is covered with snow. You can just pull it out."

Li Yingtang put on leather gloves and went to the back carrying a basket and a shovel.

The day she came here, she discovered this field of radishes hidden in the snow. She thought they belonged to someone else, but it turned out that he had planted them.

The villagers are so poor that they have to eat wild vegetables.

No one stole his radishes.

It seems that he is really respected.

Li Yingtang used a shovel to push away the thick snow, revealing the emerald green radish leaves, which looked very beautiful.

When I squatted down to pull it out, a flattering voice came from behind: "Xiao Qin's family, make dinner."

Li Yingtang looked back and saw Aunt Liu and Liu Lirong.

Although both of them are excessive, we should not hit someone who smiles at us.

Since the other party took the initiative to talk, she must give him some face. "Yes."

"Lirong and I are preparing to go to the matchmaker's house. If it works out, we'll treat you to some wedding candy," said Aunt Liu.

Li Yingtang agreed: "Okay." She picked a basket of radishes and went home.

Wash them clean, pick two to slice, and wait for the water on the surface to dry, then cut the rest into long strips as thick as fingers, put them into a ceramic pot, sprinkle with appropriate amount of salt, put a handful of chopped peppers, add vinegar, cover and let stand.

Then chop the onions and prepare the aniseed.

While peeling garlic, Qin Xian came in and said, "I made pickled radish."

Qin Xian's eyes swept across the table and landed on the pottery jar on the inside. He held his forehead and said, "That's the jar for boiling Chinese medicine."

Li Yingtang: "What does it matter? I have medicine jars at home too. I can use the boiled medicine to make chicken soup and drink it anyway." It just burns electricity.

Qin Xian was quite curious: "Really?"

"I'm a person who never lies to you, little dog."

Qin Xian: “.” Not lying?

How did she do it, lying so confidently and calmly?
He really should learn this.

When the fire was being lit, Qin Xian changed out of his new clothes, put on his original winter clothes and sat in front of the stove to add firewood. Li Yingtang leaned next to him and carefully touched his hand. He did not resist, so she played with his fingers. The joints were distinct, the nails were trimmed very neatly, and even the crescent moons on the fingertips were in line with her aesthetic taste.

What would it feel like if this hand pressed her waist?
Thinking so, she asked for it.

"Ah Xian, let's sleep together today. It's very cold to be alone. If I get sick from the cold, you will have to spend energy to take care of me."

Qin Xian coughed violently. As a girl, wasn't she afraid of being at a disadvantage? "After dinner, I'll boil some more hot water and fill a few thermos bottles under the quilt."

Li Yingtang said coquettishly: "How can a thermos be warm in all directions?"

Qin Xian: "You can stuff a quilt into it."

Li Yingtang: “.” Ghost daddy stuffed a quilt into the bed!
