After all, Chu Zichen is also very handsome. His handsomeness is not Chu Munan's sharp good looks, but the kind of beauty that is as gentle as jade and as soft as water.
However, after watching Li Xiaojiao for a few days, she began to miss Chu Munan's sharp face again. The cold expression on his face hooked her like a knife.
"Mr. Chu, do you like our village owner?"
While Chu Zichen was drinking medicine, Li Xiaojiao struck up a conversation from the side.
Chu Zichen raised his head in surprise: "Why do you ask that?"
"Because our owner is kind-hearted and everyone here likes her, I think you should like her too."
Chu Zichen smiled slightly and said nothing.
Li Xiaojiao said to herself: "If you ask me, for a person like our village owner, only someone of noble status like Mr. Chu is worthy of it. Everyone else is just a toad who wants to eat swan meat."
"How do you know that I have a noble status?" Chu Zichen asked.
"Mr. Chu has an aristocratic look on his face, and he has a good air about him. He looks like a man of status at first sight." Li Xiaojiao said flatteringly.
Chu Zichen smiled again and said nothing.
"We, the owner of the village, love sisters. I also hope that my sister Xiangxiang can find a good home. If Mr. Chu likes my sister Xiangxiang, I am willing to help connect her."
Li Xiaojiao lowered her voice and said with a smile.
Chu Zichen raised his eyebrows slightly, noncommittal.
Li Xiaojiao felt a little bored when the other party didn't talk to her. Seeing that he had finished drinking the medicine, she picked up the medicine bowl and prepared to go out.
"I haven't seen Miss Ruan recently, what is she busy with?"
Chu Zichen behind him suddenly asked.
Li Xiaojiao smiled secretly and turned around: "Spring is about to begin, and she is picking potato seeds."
"Where to choose? Take me to see."
Li Xiaojiao immediately came over flatteringly: "Mr. Chu, is there any benefit if I take you there?"
Chu Zichen casually took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and handed it to her: "This is for you."
Although Li Xiaojiao thought it was too little, she accepted it with a smile.
As soon as they walked out of the door, they met Chu Munan.
Chu Munan glanced at Chu Zichen and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I haven't recovered yet." Chu Zichen smiled gently: "I just stayed in bed for a long time and wanted to come out for a walk."
Chu Munan waved to Chu Zichen: "Just in time, I have something I want to tell you. Come with me."
Chu Zichen frowned slightly, feeling secretly dissatisfied, but still followed Chu Munan and walked over.
Chu Munan led him into the house. When Li Xiaojiao wanted to follow him in, Chu Munan closed the door with a "bang".
Chu Zichen glanced at the closed door and asked, "What do you want to tell me?"
Chu Munan: "You have been living here for a while. The accommodation fee, food fee, and medical fee are five hundred taels in total. Please pay it first."
"..."
Chu Zichen looked at Chu Munan in disbelief for a while, then asked: "Is this what you mean, or is it Miss Ruan's?"
Chu Munan raised his head proudly: "Of course it was the intention of the two of us."
"You two?" Chu Zichen looked at him with some confusion: "One of you has a surname of Chu and the other has a surname of Ruan. What's the relationship?"
"This has nothing to do with you." Chu Munan's face was full of arrogance, but in a flash, he smiled softly: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, we already have an engagement."
"Oh..." Chu Zichen said meaningfully.
"The five hundred taels you mentioned is no problem. It's not enough. I don't have that much silver with me. I have to wait for my people to come before I can give it to you."
