Chapter 49 Women’s Heart

A smile bloomed at the corner of Zhang Jingxiu's mouth. She looked at Shen Lie's naive look and wanted to laugh, but she forced it back.

After all, as a reserved and self-cleaning lady, it would be rude to laugh at others in front of others, so...she quickly covered her face with her sleeves and suppressed the smile.

After a while.

Zhang Jingxiu stopped smiling, with a hint of teasing on his pretty face, and said softly: "What Brother Shen said last night, Jingxiu has thought about it for a long time, and I think it makes perfect sense."

Shen Lie hurriedly bowed his body and said softly: "I don't dare, I don't dare."

But Zhang Jingxiu made a long note and said jokingly: "But... considering Brother Shen's current situation, it seems to be much worse than the merchants from Shanxi, Huizhou, and Zhejiang."

Now that she has come back to her senses, she is naturally a little unhappy in her heart. Her expression clearly says, do you think I am a fool for being fooled so easily?

What is my identity as a young lady? I grew up in the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Ever since I was sensible, I have seen many men who like to brag. Just because of you...

Still can’t get ranked!

How can you compete with merchants all over the world just because of your small shabby shop?

You are not afraid of the strong wind blowing your waist!

But Shen Lie's expression remained unchanged and his heart stopped beating, and he said, "As the ancients said, don't bully young people into poverty."

Zhang Jingxiu was stunned again and suppressed all his words, while his bright and pretty face gradually turned red.

She seemed to be choked by these words, and was speechless by Shen Lie, so she began to think hard in her heart, which ancient person said this.

But I didn’t think about it for a long time.

Zhang Jingxiu's pretty face darkened, and she said angrily: "May I ask Brother Shen, which ancient person said this?"

Shen Lie was speechless for a moment. He couldn't help but touch his head and said awkwardly: "Uh... I forgot."

Zhang Jingxiu's pretty face darkened again, and she said coquettishly: "Brother Shen, are you enjoying your time in meditation...Brother Shen, please leave slowly and don't see me off."

After saying that, she stood up and left angrily.

Shen Lie watched her graceful figure leave, and couldn't help but be stunned again: "Huh?"

What does it mean?

Why was an eviction order issued?

Shen Lie still wanted to protest, but a strong woman outside the door had already rolled up her sleeves and walked over maliciously, looking at the tendons on the woman's arms.

Shen Lie shuddered and said quickly: "Don't... I'll go by myself!"

After a while.

Outside the village.

Shen Lie looked confused and was driven out by Zhang Kui and others. He stood outside the village, stretched his neck and looked into the village, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Looking at Zhang Kui who also looked confused.

Shen Lie spread his hands.

Zhang Kui also touched his head helplessly.

The two of them looked at each other and had the same thought in their hearts. A woman's heart is like a needle on the seabed, and a woman's face is like the weather in June, which can change at any time.

When you are confused.

Zhang Kui walked over, patted Shen Lie on the shoulder, leaned over and said softly: "My young lady has this temper, don't be surprised, my young lady is as talented as any man."

The implication seems to be, you have to follow her, don't always contradict her!

Shen Lie looked relieved and nodded: "Understood, I understand."

It seemed that this wealthy lady, who was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion and was well-read in poetry and books, couldn't defeat him. She felt a little embarrassed about her face and was a little embarrassed.

Young ladies from wealthy families are all so moody.

So Shen Lie clasped his fists and said with a carefree smile: "Okay... I'll go back first and go to your young lady's place. Please give me a few kind words, Brother Zhang."

Zhang Kui said hurriedly: "Easy to say, easy to say, I'll go get the horse."

Not long after, Shen Lie got on his horse, waved to Zhang Kui, then left the Zhang family manor, hit the horse and left on his own.

In Zhuangzi.

Zhang Jingxiu walked into the boudoir angrily and quickly. He sat in front of the dressing table and sulked for a while. His anger gradually subsided, and he couldn't help but purse his lips and laugh.

"Ah!"

She thought of Shen Lie's naive look again, and couldn't help laughing. She was angry, funny, and couldn't help but think about it.

"Don't bully young people into poverty."

Which ancient person said this? He obviously made it up himself!

After sitting in the boudoir for a while, Zhang Jingxiu stopped smiling, rubbed her slightly red face, and straightened her appearance.

Seeing that the blush on her pretty face gradually disappeared, she whispered toward the door again: "Get ready...go back home."

In a blink of an eye, it was dark.

Taishi Mansion.

As night fell, as the door closed tightly, all kinds of people, including those who came to give gifts, those who curry favor, those who came to do business... left one after another, and the Grand Master's Mansion became quiet.

After dinner.

Zhang Jingxiu walked out of the small courtyard deep in the mansion, walking lightly in the small courtyard, looking up at the stars in the sky.

The weather was very good today, and the breeze was gentle, which was very pleasant on her face. However, she seemed to remember something and walked quickly towards the front yard.

After a while.

Zhang Mansion, study room.

Zhang Jingxiu stood outside the study. He straightened his skirt and hairpin after thinking for a moment, knocked on the door again, and whispered: "Father."

Not long after.

A majestic voice came from the room: "Come in."

Zhang Jingxiu pushed open the door and entered the study. He looked at his father, who was leaning on the master's chair with his eyes closed, and bowed. It seemed that his father was a little tired today and not very angry.

Looking at his slightly tired father and the few strands of white hair that could not be hidden on the temples, Zhang Jingxiu felt his heart twitch for no reason. The softest part of his heart was touched, and he lowered his snow-white neck.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng opened his eyes and said warmly: "Is something wrong?"

Zhang Jingxiu cheered up and responded softly: "Well... my daughter has something unclear and she is about to ask her father for advice."

Zhang Juzheng's elegant and majestic face showed a doting smile and said softly: "But there is no harm in talking."

So Zhang Jingxiu pondered and thought.

a long time.

She then said softly: "Jing'er was arguing with someone today. The person said that scholars, farmers, industry and merchants had an orderly hierarchy. Although this has been the case for thousands of years, now... it is no longer appropriate."

That's it.

Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and asked curiously: "Who said this?"

Zhang Jingxiu said hurriedly: "It's Jing'er's...a friend."

Zhang Juzheng nodded, thought for a while, opened his lips slightly as if he was thinking of something, but in the end he just responded lightly: "Yeah."

Then he leaned back on the couch again.

I started to close my eyes and meditate again.

For a moment, the most mysterious study room in the world fell into a wonderful silence. After an unknown period of time, Zhang Jingxiu felt a little impatient and raised his head again.

But I saw that my father seemed to be asleep, not saying a word, but tapping his fingers on the back of the chair, seeming to be deep in thought.

Zhang Jingxiu was a little disappointed, but he still bowed and said softly: "Father, please take care of yourself and rest early."

Zhang Juzheng responded again: "Yes."

Finished speaking.

Zhang Jingxiu then quietly walked out of the study room, gently closed the door of the study room, and a hazy mist rose in his bright eyes.

This question...

Doesn't even the father have an answer in his heart?

No.

Zhang Jingxiu quickly drove this thought away from his mind.

Her father was wise, so he naturally had the answer to this question, but he just didn't want to say it. At this moment, Shen Lie's naive face could not help but reappear in her mind.

However, thinking about how he always disobeyed and contradicted her, Zhang Jingxiu shook his head angrily and tried to drive that annoying man's appearance out of his mind.

Evening, Shen family.

Shen Lie relaxed after returning home. As the weather got warmer, his life became more comfortable day by day.

Shen Lie simply fetched several large buckets of water and took a bath in the yard. He poured a bucket of cold water over his head and scrubbed his body with soap locust.

Let the strings of water droplets drip from the already formed six-pack abs.
