Chapter 189 Chapter 189: Persuasion

Not long after it rained here, all the weeds came out, and they looked so green. Ye Li bent down and followed the water flow to slowly touch the grass, and felt the movement, and immediately pushed the water plants to the shore.

Because it was just the beginning of touching, these fish were unprepared, so Ye Li quickly threw them up. Ye Li looked at the lively fish on the shore, showed a big smile, then moved to the side, and touched three bushes in succession. stop.

After touching the three bushes, there was already a lot of movement, and the fish here were smart enough to run away long ago, and they wouldn't be able to touch them, so Ye Li simply turned around and walked to the shore.

By the way, I pulled a long pole among the aquatic plants, which will be used to string fish later.

The hidden guard hiding in the dark saw Ye Li's deft hands and feet, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Our princess is really powerful, which lady in Beijing has such a deft skill? Growing up in the capital is like growing up in the countryside.”

Dark Guard One looked at Dark Guard Two suspiciously, "Why do I feel that what you said is not good?"

Anwei Er patted his face, "I'm Princess Kua! What do you know?"

An Weiyi couldn't help but gave him a big roll of his eyes.

Ye Li found a quiet place to wait for Xiaocui because she was bored, and waited for an hour. It was almost dark before Xiaocui came in a hurry.

"Miss Lin~Miss Lin~"

Ye Li sat there almost falling asleep, seeing Xiao Cui approaching in a panic, raised his eyes and complained: "You counted it here, why have you been away for so long?"

After hearing this, Xiao Cui replied with some embarrassment: "There is a lot of work in Anping, so I will help out for a while."

"You are in a hurry! Then let's go back!" He hurried to get the wooden basin on the ground, saw the fish thrown beside him and said in surprise, "Did you still catch the fish?"

Ye Li: "It's not because I waited too long for you."

Xiaocui smiled flatteringly, "Then I'm lucky, shall we cook braised fish tonight?"

Ye Li replied carelessly: "If you want to do it, you can do it, I won't do it."

During this period of time, Xiaocui has helped Ye Li a lot, and she has learned a lot about some dishes, which are better than Mrs. Zhao's cooking.

Xiao Cui dared not agree to Ye Li's request, she hurriedly responded, "I'll do it, I'll do it, you just need to rest."

After hearing this, Ye Li looked at her suspiciously, "You have been working for Anping all afternoon, and he didn't treat you to dinner."

Hearing Ye Li ask Xiao Cui's eyes averted, she said with some embarrassment: "He really wanted to keep me for dinner, but I was afraid that others would say so, so I didn't dare to stay."

Seeing her like that, Ye Li couldn't help joking, "You dared to chase her to someone's house, but you didn't dare to stay for a meal!"

Xiaocui replied with a coy face: "You don't understand."

Ye Li saw that if she continued talking, Xiaocui would have to dive into the river, so he stopped asking.

The two of them walked home together, and as soon as they left the alley, they saw Mrs. Zhao waiting at the door with an anxious expression on their face. They were relieved and then complained: "Why did you wash your clothes for so long? Xiaomu couldn't help but look for you."

Ye Li: "Where did they go?"

Mrs. Zhao stretched out her hand and pointed, "Go over there."

Ye Li saw that it was all right, but he happened to go astray, handed the fish in his hand to Xiaocui and said, "You go home first and I'll look for it."

Fortunately, the two children didn't go far, Ye Li saw them after a few steps, and brought them back.

By the way, he warned: "Even if she doesn't come back in the future, the two children should not come out to look for her alone. If it doesn't work, you can ask the village chief for help."

Huzi nodded in response, not sure if he heard it or not.

When they went back, Xiaocui was already cooking, because Xiaocui promised that she would cook in the evening, Ye Li didn't help, and sat in the main room waiting to eat.

After dinner, several people sat together and talked for a while, and then went back to their houses.

Because Ye Li was thinking about Lin Xiao, he tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well. He got up early in the morning and saw Xiao Cui already busy in the kitchen.

Ye Li asked in surprise: "You got up so early?"

Because Ye Li has the habit of sleeping late, everyone follows her and gradually develops the habit. Usually, they sleep until they wake up naturally.

Seeing Ye Li approaching, Xiao Cui was also surprised, and quickly replied: "I can't sleep, so I thought about getting up and making breakfast first."

"Why did you get up so early?"

Ye Li yawned and replied, "I'm going to the town today."

When Xiao Cui heard that Ye Li was going to the town, her eyes lit up immediately, and she looked at Ye Li expectantly. At this moment, Ye Li also realized that something was wrong, and asked in surprise: "Is it because you woke up so early? Are you going to help Anping?"

Xiaocui smiled with a guilty conscience, "Their family also has a lot of land. As for how long he and Xiaokangzi will have to work, I want to help him as soon as possible."

Ye Li saw that Xiaocui was thinking about Anping with satisfaction, and couldn't help but turn cold, and said seriously: "Xiaocui, think about it, although the atmosphere here is not as strict as in the capital, but the rumors Gossip is no joke, especially if you're a girl."

Xiaocui raised a smiling face and said to Ye Li: "Miss Lin, I know what you said, I just want to help him."

Seeing Xiaocui, Ye Li knew that she was trapped, and asked helplessly, "Does Anping know what's on your mind?"

Xiao Cui was silent for a while after listening, "He should know."

Ye Li: "Then how does he feel about you?"

Xiao Cui shook her head in confusion, "I don't know either."

"You'd better figure out his attitude towards you first, don't shave your head and make a fuss?"

After listening to Ye Li's words, Xiao Cui replied with a gloomy expression: "Miss Lin, I don't ask him to have feelings for me, I just want to help him."

After hearing this, Ye Li looked at him speechlessly, "Then what are you trying to do with him? If you get entangled with him like this, not only will you ruin your own reputation, but Anping will also be implicated by you."

"If Anping is looking for a wife to marry, then you are not leaving a lump in people's hearts."

Xiao Cui looked at Ye Li with a painful face, "Then what do you think I should do?"

Ye Li looked at her and said earnestly: "If you really like Anping, then you should pick on Anping and tell Anping, if he also likes you, you can let him finish his work and come here to propose marriage."

"If he doesn't like you, then you should give up early, and it's not a delay to others. But you have to think about one thing. If you marry him here, you won't be able to go back."

Although Xiao Cui is a maid, she is also the big maid beside Zhao Qing. This life must be better than that in the countryside, otherwise she wouldn't even have to learn how to make a fire.

Xiaocui hesitated for a few seconds, raised her head and replied firmly to Ye Li: "I don't regret it."

She has seen too many deceitful marriages in the capital, so she just wants to find someone like Anping to live her life in peace.
