capital girl

Chapter 69 They praised me for being free and easy
Li Yukun's screams resounded throughout the courtyard.

Zhou Hong looked at Meng Shiyu in shock, as if looking at a monster from ancient times.

"Are we still friends?" Zhou Hong asked.

"That depends on what you did to me?" Meng Shiyu said in a flat tone.

A cold air shot up Zhou Hong's back and went straight to the back of his head, feeling icy cold for a while.

Meng Shiyu rolled up his sleeves, revealing snow-white and delicate arms like a girl's fragrant lotus root, then pressed the hem of his clothes into his belt, and walked towards the ladder to the roof.

Zhou Hong couldn't believe that the lotus arms that made men unable to look away and women felt ashamed could throw Li Yukun on the roof.

How did he do it, and how many things he didn't know.

"Dig the mud for me!" Meng Shiyu said to Li Yukun who was crawling on the roof and dared not move.

"I'm afraid, ah, what if..." Li Yukun glanced under the roof and felt his legs go weak.

"If you don't work, I'll throw you down again." Meng Shiyu said to Li Yukun, holding a clay tablet in his hand.

Li Yukun woo woo woo, is this still the gentle and lovely elder brother Shi Yu in his eyes, he is simply a big devil.

After Li Yulou changed his clothes and cleansed his face, he came out and saw Meng Shiyu and Li Yukun repairing on the roof. He couldn't believe it.

But her eyes did not lie to her, it was indeed Meng Shiyu who had just passed the imperial examination, the number one talented scholar in the world.

"Is that Mr. Meng?
Suddenly, on another roof not far away, a young man shouted excitedly.

Meng Shiyu looked in the direction of the source of the sound.

"It really is the number one scholar, I thought I was wrong!" The man became even more excited, wishing he could fly from his roof to the roof where Meng Shiyu was.

"I didn't expect that Meng Zhuangyuan did a great job and repaired the roof. He was so free and easy. I admire, admire..." The other party clasped his fists and saluted when he was excited.

"Could it be that it's delicious to fart when you become the number one scholar...

" Li Yukun muttered.

"I don't know if it is fragrant or not. It is certain to be louder than others. If you want to get out of the circle, you have to make your own name in a certain industry. Otherwise, you will just follow the crowd and do nothing." Meng Shiyu said to Li Yukun said bluntly.

After Meng Shiyu finished repairing the roof, he came down from the ladder, and Li Yulou said, "Who asked you to go up and repair it? It's not your job."

"Why not..." Meng Shiyu smiled, "Didn't that student just now praise me for being free and easy? Soon, the whole capital will know about my roof repair."

"Are you so famous now?" Li Yulou raised his eyebrows, his eyes were shining brightly.

"Well, I'm too good..." Meng Shiyu said.

"En!" Li Yulou nodded vigorously, raising his brows, not thinking that there was anything wrong with Meng Shiyu's words.

Zhou Hong was completely ignored with a speechless face, one dared to brag and the other dared to answer.

Li Yulou asked Chuntao to fetch hot water, and gave Meng Shiyu a handkerchief.

"Why are you here suddenly, aren't you going to enter the palace today?" Li Yulou asked.

"I heard that the imperial concubine is suffering from drunkenness. Your Majesty has no time to accompany her. Let's do it tomorrow!" Meng Shiyu wiped his hands and handed the handkerchief to Li Yulou.

This reason surprised Li Yulou.

"Let's hire someone to repair the roof next time!" Meng Shiyu said.

"Well..." Li Yulou nodded and agreed, "I can do it myself, and I have always done it before."

"Come out with me in a while." Meng Shiyu lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the girl's smooth forehead and said.

"Well, okay... Originally, I was going to invite you and Brother Zhou to dinner." Li Yulou said.

"It's just the two of us..." Meng Shiyu said as he walked forward.

Li Yulou was stunned for a moment, then hurried back to the house, took his purse and chased after him in the front yard.

When she went to the front yard, only Meng Shiyu was waiting for her.

"Zhou Hong was left by the teacher to play chess, let's go." Meng Shiyu raised the corners of his lips and said to Li Yulou.

Li Yulou felt sorry for Zhou Hong for a moment, then followed Meng Shiyu's footsteps and went out.

A carriage was parked at the door, Li Yulou got into the carriage, Meng Shiyu did not enter the carriage, but sat in front.

The carriage passed through the streets of the capital.

Li Yulou saw Panlou West Street.I don't know much about Li Yulou, a street in Kyoto.

But she knows that Kyoto is divided into four cities: east, west, north, south.They are located in the west city, and most of the people living here are wealthy businessmen, and wealthy families from other places in Kyoto.

The southern city is mostly the home of scholars and officials, the eastern city is the residence of the royal family, and the northern city is mostly poor people.

Of course, this is not absolute, just a general statement.

They seem to be heading south.

Sure enough, after passing through Gulou Street, I turned south on Yujie Street and went to Nancheng.

After walking for another quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped at the gate of a house.

Li Yulou jumped out of the carriage, and a gatekeeper opened the door, looking at a man in his 40s, with a wrinkled smile on his face, very kind.

"The young lady is here."

Li Yulou,...

"Aha, old man, don't bark, I'm going to be Miss Yulou now..." Suddenly a well-dressed, tall, square-looking middle-aged man in his 30s came over with a smile.

"Hi, Miss Yulou." The man bowed slightly, "I am the housekeeper, my surname is Qiu, Miss Yulou can call me Butler Qiu."

And the butler,...

Li Yulou seemed to feel something, his cheeks were slightly warm, and a faint burning heat floated on his cheeks.

"Shi Yu," Li Yulou looked back at the boy, "this is..."

The major general stood against the light, his cheeks were as moist as jade, and his dark complexion added a bit of calmness and introversion.

"Where we will live in the future..." Meng Shiyu said softly.

Li Yulou looked at Meng Shiyu with bright eyes like a bright moon, and a moment later his cheeks were as bright red as crushed pomegranate juice stuck to it.

She staggered her eyes, a shy smile spread to the bottom of her eyes, and the unconcealable happiness on the brows bloomed between her cheeks.

"Let's go, take a look inside..." Meng Shiyu said, walking towards the inside.

This house is obviously much better than the one her father rented, the walls are all newly painted.

The windows are also newly framed.There are two small squares in front of the world, surrounded by symmetrical patterns of bricks, and stone carvings on them.

Li Yulou subconsciously looked towards the roof.

"The roof won't leak, don't worry..." Meng Shiyu looked at her and said at the roof.

Li Yulou,...

Why don't you be so smart and pretend to be confused, and make her more ashamed.

It's a shame to open the door for a shame, it's a shame.

In addition to the housekeeper, there are four women in the family, and there is also an old man who is responsible for cleaning the yard.

"You maid, bring your own. If you still need it, buy two second-class maids and two third-class maids. Your maid is too lazy.

"Meng Shiyu said.

Chuntao, who was eating melon seeds and waiting for Li Yulou to come back, sneezed for no reason.

"I just said that Kyoto is too cold, not as good as Xiuzhou..." Chuntao muttered, and closed the doors and windows.

"And the backyard..." Meng Shiyu pointed to a doorway with hanging flowers on the side of the house.
