The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 261 Friends

Li Tao said: "I only go to Bowen's house for drinks occasionally, why do I ask about this?"

Gu Huayu briefly talked about Yang Jian's affairs without going into too much detail. Said: "Yang Ji'an is a bit suspicious. I want to send someone to keep an eye on it, but the street is small and sideways. Those who go in and out of there are all residents of that area, and there are very few strangers. So, I am worried. The other party notices.”

Li Tao nodded, "Okay, I understand. I'll keep an eye on it for you later."

Looking at Li Tao's sincere and serious look, Gu Huayu felt a little dazed.

 Thinking about how much she disliked the man in front of her when they first met him on the streets of Hongcheng.

At that time, she never dreamed that one day she and Li Tao would become good friends.

"What about me? What can I do for you?" Shi Yamei's question brought Gu Huayu back from her thoughts.

Gu Huayu asked: "Has your wedding date been set? I heard from my grandmother that your wedding date will be set for the year before."

Shi Yamei shook his head and said: "Not yet, we have to wait until the wedding date is decided, and then we can see the master to see the schedule.

The date was set on the tenth day of August. The elders of both parties decided to set the wedding date in the year before next year, saying that there would be no spring next year and it would not be suitable to get married. "

 In the no-spring year, the solar term "beginning of spring" does not appear in the year. There is a saying that it is not suitable to get married if you are young and have no youth.

Gu Huayu said: "The wedding date was set a year ago. It's already the end of June and it's coming in a blink of an eye. You should be busy with your wedding. Have you started embroidering the wedding dress?"

 Gu Huayu knows that no matter what era she is born in, a wedding is like a big project, extremely complicated, and requires many things to be done by oneself, which is tiring and laborious.

Gu Huayu didn’t want Shi Yamei to have any regrets, so she didn’t want to take up her time.

Li Tao looked at Shi Yamei and mocked: "You can wield embroidery needles with your hands, which are used to wielding swords and guns?"

　　Although the words were sarcastic, they were full of concern.

Shi Yamei raised his head and glared at Li Tao, and replied: "What does it have to do with you? I'm not marrying you and letting you worry here."

Gu Huayu looked at Li Tao and then at Shi Yamei, feeling speechless. When these two people get together, can't they have a good conversation? He started to argue with each other as soon as he opened his mouth.

Li Tao took a sip of tea, put down the cup, bowed his hands and said, "I would like to thank you for not marrying me.

Only a tigress like you, like Ye Minghao, will hold you in the palm of her hand as a treasure. If you were someone else, who would care about you? "

Shi Yamei raised his hand as if to hit him. Li Tao quickly jumped up from the chair, holding the back of the chair with one hand and raising the other hand to protect himself.

“Hey, you woman, just say what you say. If you win, say a few more words. If you don’t win, say a few words less.

 What hand do you use? A gentleman talks but doesn't do anything. Don't you understand this? Gu Xiaoyu, stop her, otherwise, your shop will no longer be able to do business in a while. "

Shi Yamei acted in a very grand manner, and she was not angry at Li Tao at all. Not only was she not angry, but after hearing Li Tao's words, she felt a little sweet in her heart.

Gu Huayu looked at Shi Yamei's slightly raised corners of his mouth and smiled: "Yamei, look at how cowardly he is, just let him go."

Shi Yamei gouged out Li Tao's eyes, walked down the **** and said, "For Xiaoyu's sake, I'll spare you this time."

Seeing Shi Yamei sit back, Li Tao dragged the chair far away and sat down after making sure he was safe.

Li Tao sat down and said without fear of death: "Why did you spare me for Xiao Yu's sake?

 Don’t think that I don’t know, it’s clear that my words have touched your heart.

I don’t know how much ecstasy soup Mr. Ye has poured into you to make you think of him in your eyes and in your heart. "

Shi Yamei's face turned red when Li Tao said it, and she bared her teeth at Li Tao in embarrassment: "Li Er, are you itchy? My aunt tells you that if you let my aunt catch you, you will be dead."

Li Tao hurriedly got up to get out of the way.

Hence, one chased and the other hid, running back and forth in the living room.

Finally, Li Tao hid behind Gu Huayu and shouted, "Xiaoyu, tell her to stop."

Gu Huayu rarely calmed down Li Tao and said with a smile: "You are a demon king after all. To be so timid is to disgrace your famous title."

Li Tao responded casually: "Who said I was afraid of her? Do you really think I can't beat her?

 Should I let her? Good men don't fight with women. This is education. "

"Would you like to go out and compete? Let's see who can beat whom." Shi Yamei took advantage of Li Tao's carelessness and pulled him out from behind Gu Huayu.

Li Tao waved his hand hurriedly, "You are great, I will admit defeat, okay?"

Shi Yamei raised his leg and kicked Li Tao in the crotch. He used the force of his hand to push, and Li Tao immediately fell to the ground. "Are you admitting defeat?"

Li Tao said repeatedly: "Young man, I admit defeat, Shi Shaoxia is so powerful, I am convinced!"

Shi Yamei let go of his hand.

Li Tao looked at Shi Yamei and said, "Give me a hand."

Shi Ameri ignored him and returned to his seat to sit down.

Gu Huayu stretched out her hand to give Li Tao a hand and said, "You, you really deserve this mouth."

Li Tao chuckled, sat down and touched the place where Shi Yamei kicked, and muttered: "One tigress, that's right!"

Shi Yamei's eyes widened and he was about to have a seizure when Chaoyang came in and asked, "Princess, are you having lunch here?"

Li Tao took the initiative and said, "No, let's go out to eat."

After finishing speaking, Li Tao turned to look at Gu Huayu and said: "I heard that Huixianlou on Ma Xing Street has hired a new Hunan dish. If you like spicy food, let's go to Huixianlou for dinner today. How about it?"

Gu Huayu is a big foodie, especially loves Sichuan and Hunan cuisine. When she heard that there was something delicious, she immediately responded happily, "Of course."

So the three of them went to Huixian Tower on Maxing Street.

The waiter led the three of them to the private room on the second floor and asked, "What do the three of you want to eat?"

Gu Huayu said first: "Dongan chicken, fried bamboo shoot tips, fried blood duck, Zilong taking off his robe, braised cabbage heart with bansu. Five dishes for the three of us, is that enough?"

Li Tao said: "Just order it, I'll be the host."

 Shi Yamei nodded and said, "That's enough."

Gu Huayu said to the waiter: "Let's take these first. If there's not enough, we'll order more."

 The waiter steps back.

 “Second Master?” A questioning voice sounded outside the door.

The three of them turned to look over, and Gu Huayu recognized Li Cheng's servant He Quan at a glance.

After Izumi saw Li Tao clearly, he entered the room and greeted Li Tao first, and then greeted Gu Huayu and Shi Yamei.

Li Tao asked: "Brother, are you eating here too?"

Izumi leaned forward and responded: "Yes, I and your prince, the Crown Prince of Ningyuan, the eldest son of the General Zhenguo, and Mr. Liu from the Ministry of Revenue, are having dinner at the Penglai Hall opposite."

Li Tao nodded, "I understand, you go down first."

After Izumi stepped back, Li Tao stood up and said, "You two sit down first, and I'll go to the other side to say hello."

Shi Yamei said: "You stay over there to eat, just remember to pay for the table."

Li Tao glanced at Shi Yamei and said, "What a beautiful idea. You ordered so many delicious foods in a small talk. You two are eating happily here, but you asked me to go over there and listen to someone's lecture."

Looking at Huayu but smiling and saying nothing.

Shi Yamei raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who dares to lecture you?"

Li Tao ignored her and turned to the opposite side.

Shi Yamei smiled and said: "Demon kings with a good reputation are sometimes scolded by others. You devil king is really bad at it."

Li Tao turned around and said, "It's really not easy for me, a devil in this world, to accept your ridicule, beatings and scoldings all the time."

 After saying that, Li Tao raised his eyebrows at her.

 Shi Yamei was speechless for a moment.

Li Tao pushed the door open and entered the Penglai Hall. The people in the room were stunned for a moment, then smiled and greeted him to sit down.

Li Tao first bowed to the King of Qi who was sitting at the top, and then bowed to everyone present. "Thank you, brothers. Brothers, sit down. I have made an appointment with a friend, so I won't disturb you all."

King Qi said: "Since we have met, bring your friends over so that we can have more fun together."

Li Tao shook his head and politely declined: "It's better to say goodbye, it's not very convenient."

  King Qi asked doubtfully: "Isn't it convenient?"

Jiang Ying, the eldest son of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, smiled and said: "Second Young Master, your friend must not be a lady from some family, right?"

Li Tao leaned forward and said, "Brother Jiang is really right, so it's not very convenient."

Lin Wangshu, the prince of Ningyuanhou, said: "The second young master really invited a lady to have dinner with him? I wonder which lady it is?"

Li Tao didn't want others to think too much about Gu Huayu and Shi Yamei, so he simply said frankly: "Princess Yanran and the third lady of Shangshu Shi's house."

Lin Wangshu did not expect that it was Princess Yanran and Miss Shi San, and it was too late to continue gossiping.

 Just nod and say yes.

Just as Li Tao turned around to leave, Liu Yu stood up and said, "I am related to Miss Shi San and Princess Yanran, so I have to go over and say hello."

On the day of the flower party at Huaqing Palace, Jiang Ying’s sister Jiang Menghua returned home and told him about what happened in Huaqing Palace.

Others couldn't understand the two rice cake pigs that Gu Huayu threw out, but Jiang Menghua, who had practiced martial arts with his brother since he was a child, could tell.

Jiang Menghua admired the princess very much, which made Jiang Ying extremely curious about Hua Yanran.

Jiang Ying saw that Liu Yu was about to go over to say hello, so she stood up and said, "We are all acquaintances. There is no need to avoid suspicion. It is reasonable and reasonable for me to go and say hello."

Jiang Ying usually interacts a lot with the Shi brothers, and is also familiar with Shi Yamei.

Lin Wangshu saw the two of them getting up, and he also got up and said, "Since you are all going, why don't I come along too."

Li Cheng saw the three of them standing up and hurriedly greeted them: "You all sit down. As Meng Yang said, we are all acquaintances, so there is no need to avoid suspicion. Go down and invite the princess and Miss Shi San to come over."

　　Mengyang is the given name of Jiang Ying.

Li Tao wanted to say something to stop him, but when he met Li Cheng's gaze, he swallowed his words again.

 

The King of Qi had spoken, and Li Tao could not stop him, so he had to follow Li Cheng back to the opposite side.

Gu Huayu raised her head and saw Li Cheng coming, and was not surprised. She touched Shi Yamei with her hand and motioned for her to get up.

Li Cheng bowed his head and greeted Gu Huayu and Shi Yamei.

Gu Huayu returned the courtesy to Li Chengfu and said politely: "Master Li, what a coincidence."

Li Cheng leaned forward and said, "It's a coincidence. It's a rare encounter. I would like to invite the princess and Miss Shi San to have a meal together. I wonder if you two can show your respect?"

After saying that, Li Cheng felt a little presumptuous again, and quickly explained: "Across the way, there are the Prince of Qi, the eldest son of Ningyuan Hou Mansion, the Grand Master Jiang from the residence of General Zhenguo, and the Grand Master Liu from the residence of Liu Shilang of the Ministry of War. These are familiar people, no outsiders.”

Shi Yamei has a forthright temperament. Except for King Qi and Li Cheng, she is familiar with everyone else, so she doesn't mind. She just doesn't know whether Gu Huayu is willing.

Shi Yamei turned to look at Gu Huayu and asked, "Xiaoyu, what do you think?"

Gu Huayu knew that if she didn't go over, the people opposite would inevitably come over to say hello.

 “I can do it, it’s up to you, Yamei.”

Shi Yamei said to Li Cheng: "Then let's not bother you."

Li Cheng leaned forward and said, "I don't dare to accept it. It's an honor for me to be honored by the two of you. The princess invites you, Miss Shi San."

Gu Huayu asked Shi Yamei to walk in front, and she walked behind Shi Yamei.

Li Tao came over and whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that the prince and the others were here beforehand."

Gu Huayu smiled and said softly: "It's okay, don't take it to heart."

 Gu Huayu and Shi Yamei entered the Penglai Hall. King Qi and others had already stood up.

Shi Yamei and Gu Huayu first paid homage to King Fu Shen of Qi, and then to Liu Yu, Jiang Ying and others.

After a while of greetings, Li Cheng called everyone to take their seats.

It turns out that the King of Qi is sitting on the throne, with Jiang Ying sitting on the right of the King of Qi, Lin Wangshu sitting next to Jiang Ying, Li Cheng sitting on the left of the King of Qi, and Liu Yu sitting next to Li Cheng.

Three people suddenly joined, and Gu Huayu is still the princess, so the position needs to be changed.

 In terms of rank, Gu Huayu should sit next to King Qi.

 Gu Huayu saw the bowls and chopsticks placed on the table and said to Li Cheng, "You sit as you did before. The three of us can sit here."

As soon as Gu Huayu entered the door, King Qi's eyes lit up. It turned out that Hua Yanran looked so beautiful.

As a prince, King Qi has seen many beauties.

Hua Yanran was the first person who made him not want to take his eyes away.

King Qi knew that it would be rude to stare at people closely, so he forced himself to look away, but his eyes were not obedient and would always glance at Gu Huayu intentionally or unintentionally.

 “This…” Li Cheng looked at King Qi.

  King Qi looked at Gu Huayu and met Gu Huayu’s eyes.

In his heart, King Qi hoped that Gu Huayu would sit next to him, but he said, "Do as the princess says."

When the words came out, King Qi himself was surprised. He had just said something that was against his will.

 King Qi reached out to pick up the teacup and sipped the tea with his head down to cover up his inner panic.

Li Cheng heard from King Qi and asked He Quan to set out the tableware.

Gu Huayu heard Ziqin talk about Liu Yu before and knew that Liu Yu treated Shi Yamei unusually.

 But now Shi Yamei is engaged to Young Master Ye, and Young Master Ye is Zi Qin’s eldest cousin.

When Ye Shangshu died, he entrusted the Ye family to Zi Qin. The affairs of Young Master Ye were Zi Qin's affairs, and Zi Qin's affairs were her affairs.

Thinking like this, Gu Huayu felt that she should help Mr. Ye keep an eye on him.

Gu Huayu has always been an action person. She sat next to Liu Yu first and separated herself between Liu Yu and Shi Yamei.

There are two more ladies at the table, so it is naturally difficult to continue the previous conversation.

 For a moment, I didn’t know what to say, and the situation became a little awkward.

Li Cheng was speechless and asked: "What kind of tea will the princess and Miss Shi San drink?"

Li Tao blurted out: "Guapian and Tieguanyin."

After Li Tao finished speaking, seeing everyone looking at him, Li Tao touched his nose uncomfortably, and then said: "The princess drinks melon slices, and Miss Shi San drinks Tieguanyin."

Liu Yu looked sideways at Shi Yamei and said, "Aren't you a melon drinker?"
