capital girl

Chapter 21

It costs a lot of money for Meng Shiyu to buy books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, let alone Shu Xiu from Chunhui College...

Li Yulou was frowning and regretting why he was lazy just now, he should go down and give Meng Shiyu some money.

Li Yukun ran in from the door and hurriedly shouted, "Sister, sister, your marriage is in jeopardy..."

All eyes turned to Li Yukun, and then turned to look at Li Yulou.

Li Yulou swayed, his feet slipped, and then he slid down from above.

The people below let out an exclamation, and it took a moment for several male workers to react, and ran to the place where Li Yulou fell.

But their reaction was too slow.

Li Yulou stretched out his hand to grab the cloth hanging in the air, but he missed it, but luckily, a piece of silk was caught on his right foot.

But the silk was too slippery, and her body still slid down uncontrollably.

The people below didn't know what to do, let alone predict where Li Yulou would fall, scurrying around like headless flies.

Li Yukun stared blankly at Li Yulou falling from above with his mouth open.

Li Yulou closed his eyes, he could only wait in vain for the coming pain...

Unexpectedly, she fell into someone's arms.

She opened her eyes, and what she saw was that peerless face.The young man's lips were pink and jade-carved, and his cheeks were fair, like the light pink inlaid on peach petals.

His dark eyes were shining brightly, and he was looking down at her.

His slender arms completely embraced her firm and plump figure, making her feel safe.

A bright red floated on Li Yulou's cheeks, and then slowly spread out, rippling on the earlobe like ripples, and then extended to the snow-white neck.

"Miss Yulou, are you okay?" Meng Shiyu let go of her, but saw her staring at him with dazed eyes as if she had lost her soul, thinking that she was frightened.

"Oh, that, I'm fine..." Li Yulou shook his head, turned around and left in a daze.

"Brother Shi Yu, my sister is fine. She has rough skin and thick flesh. Even if she falls to the ground, she will be fine. Besides, you supported her." Li Yukun said heartlessly with a smile.

Meng Shiyu turned his head to look at Li Yukun, his eyes were a little colder, "Which one of your eyes saw that your sister's skin is rough and fleshy..."

It is obviously soft to the touch, like steamed buns just out of the pan, and there seems to be a lot of water in it.

Li Yukun was stunned for a moment, it was his illusion, as Shi Yu seemed to goug his eyes out just now.

"Anyway, my sister is fine..." Li Yukun said, "Brother Shiyu, where did you jump out just now, so fast, I didn't even see you..."

"I'm right behind you." Meng Shiyu said calmly.

Li Yulou calmed down for a moment before coming to the front yard.

"Zhou Hong, I also watched you grow up. How could you do such an absurd thing? It wasted two months of being scolded by your mother. No, I have to scold you back."

Of course it was Zhang Xiulan's voice, obviously she was very angry.

For the sake of her daughter, she endured the humiliation for two months, and for the sake of her daughter marrying Zhou Hong, she restrained her usual fiery temper and let Liu Feng'e scold and look down on her.

What made her even more uncomfortable was that Li Yulou's marriage was gone again.

It's seventeen, now it's eighteen.

What to do with the daughter who is still unable to marry at eighteen, she was so flustered that she couldn't sleep at the thought of this.

All the discomfort, panic, and irritability were vented on Zhou Hong.

Zhou Hong had a good temper and didn't say a word.Zhang Xiulan was furious, and Li Xu didn't dare to persuade her.

"Shi Yu, when did you come back?" Li Yulou asked.

"Didn't you see it?" Meng Shiyu looked at her and asked back.

Li Yulou's cheeks flushed again in embarrassment, she thought she was watching Meng Shiyu on the fabric drying pole, and the other party couldn't see her, but she didn't expect him to see her.

But she really didn't see him when he came back, she still regretted coming, just came down to rest for a while, drank some water and then climbed up the pole to see Meng Shiyu was already boiling water on the pot in the yard.

She also sighed that the fate is shallow.

"I came back in the first half of the day yesterday." Meng Shiyu said when he saw Li Yulou's small white hands rubbing back and forth, his fingers turning red.

"How about the banquet, and garden tour..." Li Yulou raised his head again, looking at Meng Shiyu with expectation in his eyes and asked.

"It's okay..." Meng Shiyu replied.

"Did a lot of officials go there? Is King Jin'an also there? Has the Anping County Lord gone?" Li Yulou's eyes showed a little anxiety.

"I didn't go..." Meng Shiyu worried that she would be thinking wildly and replied directly.

The corners of the girl's lips instantly curved upwards, her joy was not concealed at all.

"Did you drink?" Li Yulou asked again.

"I drank a little, but not much, not drunk..." Meng Shiyu replied.

The girl let out a sigh of relief, feeling that she had relaxed a lot.

None of her fears seemed to be happening.

"Well, have you bought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone?" Li Yulou raised her head slightly, her bright eyes fell on Meng Shiyu's face cleanly and purely, her chin was clean and flawless, reflecting a wonderful halo in the sunlight.

"I'm done buying..." Meng Shiyu said, but saw that the girl's eyes dimmed a little in an instant, a faint melancholy appeared between the brows, and the corners of her lips were bitten by her white teeth.

"Some... just bought some, that..."

The girl's expression immediately brought a little expectation.

"Wait..." The girl turned around and ran towards her house with a light yellow skirt, like a yellow butterfly flying towards a flower bush.

Meng Shiyu's lips revealed an almost indiscernible smile.

Li Yulou went quickly and returned even faster. When he went, his hands were empty, but when he came back, he held a delicate purse in his snow-white palm.

"Here you are," Li Yulou reached out and grabbed Meng Shiyu's palm hanging by his side, and stuffed the wallet into his hand with lightning speed.

His palm felt the softness of the girl's fingers, which seemed to be a little sweet.

The girl glanced left and right, showing a guilty expression, "Take and buy the pen, ink, paper and inkstone you like, if it's not enough, I'll give it to you, don't worry..."

Meng Shiyu has a sense of déjà vu of being taken care of by a married lady.

However, this sneaky feeling of being given money by a girl is quite exciting.

Meng Shiyu hummed and clenched his purse tightly.His palm was huge, and the girl's wallet disappeared in an instant when it was hidden in his hand.

Only then did Li Yulou feel relieved.

At this moment, Zhou Hong came out of the room with his head drooping, and Zhang Xiulan's scolding inside had not completely stopped.

Zhou Hong saw Meng Shiyu and Li Yulou standing side by side in the sunlight. The boy was tall and straight, with a handsome appearance, and the girl's smile was as bright as the sun.

What exactly did he do, who did he buy a wedding dress for, who did he provoke, why did his life suffer so much.

As soon as he returned to Xiuzhou yesterday, the county lord of Anping came to him and said that he would never marry him, and would never marry him even if he died, which made him die of that unrealistic heart.

She doesn't want to marry, and he doesn't want to marry yet.
