Chapter Eleven: The Shameless Toad

Bi'er returned to the room. She originally wanted to tell Lan Aoxue about the ridiculous things that happened outside, but when she saw that the young lady finally fell asleep, she thought to herself that Bi'er was tired after such a long journey.

The young lady's body was already soft and she must have been very tired, so Bi'er did not disturb Lan Aoxue, but sat in front of the window and looked at the flowers and plants outside.

The yard behind Fuyuan Inn was originally an ordinary yard, but the proprietress was a flower lover, so she dug out a small lotus pond in the middle of the backyard, and then planted some lotus flowers in the lotus pond.

When the lotus leaves are blooming, it also has a unique flavor of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the yard itself is not very big, and with the pond, it will inevitably be a bit narrow. On weekdays, it is not uncommon to see waiters in a hurry.

Fall into the pool.

The guest room where Lan Aoxue was located was the best guest room in their Fuyuan Inn. This room faced the lotus pond in the courtyard, so Bi'er opened the window and had a great view of the lotus flowers in the courtyard.

I looked at the scenery all over.

"The green lotus grows in the secluded spring, and the morning sun is bright and fresh. The autumn flowers emerge from the green water, and the dense leaves are surrounded by green smoke. I must be talking about this scenery, right?" Bi'er laughed softly.

Although Bi'er usually doesn't like to read those gorgeous poems, she can't resist the fact that her own daughter likes them. Even if Bi'er doesn't read them anymore, she only remembers a few lines of this poem by the poet of the previous dynasty.

Ancient style·Biheshengyouquan" is one of the few poems that Bi'er remembers, because

Although the lady's surname is Lan, she does not like orchids but prefers lotus flowers because she thinks that although orchids are delicate and beautiful, they are a bit petty and the lotus flower is the real style of everyone, so Lan Aoxue likes to recite some poems about lotus flowers when she has nothing to do.

Bi'er, who kept coming back and forth with poems, picked some that were easy to remember and memorized them.

Although the scenery outside the window is beautiful, you will inevitably feel tired after looking at it for a long time. Bi'er withdrew her gaze, swung her little feet, and then placed her eyes on the pair of jade bracelets given by Li Longqian.

"I don't know what this idiot is giving, but he just wants to marry my lady. You know, my lady has seen all kinds of treasures. Even the best jade bracelet, my lady has never even laid eyes on it. You are from a poor country."

Little guy, what good things can you come up with?"

Bi'er was thinking this in her heart, and her hands were not idle. Seeing that the young lady was still sleeping, she opened the red cloth outside the bracelet and took out the priceless pair of Jade Ocean bracelets.

"It looks crystal clear." This was Bi'er's first impression of this pair of bracelets.

Bi'er put the bracelet on her hand and played with it for a while, and praised softly. She thought that this poor boy would not be able to come up with anything good, but this bracelet seemed to be not an ordinary object. It was cold to the touch, and it was fun.

Very, after playing for a while

After that, Bi'er felt as if her groggy head seemed to be a lot more energetic. Could it be that these bracelets are still treasures? After thinking about it, Bi'er actually had the idea of ​​wearing the bracelets to try, but in the end Bi'er still

I resisted the thought.

"If you don't want it, miss, you can't throw away such a good bracelet. I have to keep it." Bi'er smiled and made her own little calculation.

"Crunch!"

At this moment, Lan Aoxue's door suddenly rang. Bi'er quickly put away the bracelet on her hand, but it was too late. Lan Aoxue's nanny walked in expressionlessly, and first looked at Bi'er.

Then he looked at Lan Aoxue on the bed, and then asked sharply: "Bier, what do you have in your hand?"

"Bracelet..." Bi'er replied with some guilt.

"Where did you get the bracelet?" the old woman looked at Bi'er and asked with a frown.

Bi'er looked at the old woman and was a little scared. She wanted to hide it, but she couldn't lie, so she hesitated for a long time and couldn't tell where the bracelet came from.

"Bier, if you don't tell the truth, I won't let the lady take you out next time!" The old woman saw that Bi'er was hiding something, so she threatened her.

"No, I said!" Bi'er quickly stopped. You must know that the young lady usually listens to Zhang Ma's words the most. If Zhang Ma said she wouldn't take Bi'er with her, Bi'er would definitely not be able to come out, so Zhang Ma's

This threat is still very useful.

Bi'er stood there with her little hands behind her back, folded them and struggled for a while, and then said softly: "This is from the waiter in the store, saying it is a betrothal gift for the young lady."

"Betrothal gift?" Wang Ma was stunned for a moment, and then said with a sarcastic smile: "It's a joke, I've seen all the talented people in Jinling City give away gold and silver cars. Which one have you seen the lady look at? Could it be that he is from the countryside?

Is it possible that the waiter just wanted to marry my lady off with a pair of broken bracelets? If people in Jinling City found out about this, wouldn’t they laugh out loud? If you don’t get married, you will get a pair of bracelets as a gift when you leave the house.

Just get married?"

Bi'er looked at the old woman in front of her tremblingly. Although there was no expression on her face, she was still disgusted in her heart. It's not me who gave you the bracelet. What are you talking about in front of me?

As the old woman spoke, she stretched out the jade bracelet on Bi'er's hand and threw it out the door without even looking at it.

"I've seen many toads that want to eat swan meat. This is the first time I've seen such a shameless toad!" After throwing it away, the old woman cursed slightly viciously, then turned to look at Bi'er and said, "This matter

There’s no need to mention it to the lady.”

"How could you throw away the things that were given to the young lady?" Bi'er looked at the old woman with big eyes and a displeased look on her face and shouted.

"Young lady will only be upset if you see something like this, even if you don't see it, it doesn't matter."

"But after all, this was given to the lady. If the lady doesn't want to throw it away, how can you make your own decision?"

Although Bi'er was young, everything she said made sense. For a moment, the old woman didn't know how to respond.

"You are really old and confused. The ancients said that gentle ladies are very naughty. They just like young ladies. You insist on saying that they are toads. Could it be that those dandies in Jinling City are not toads?" Bi'er turned to Xiao Xiao.

He cursed and then ran out of the room angrily.

"This girl..." The old woman looked at Bi'er's back and suddenly felt that what she had just done seemed a bit inappropriate, but because of her face, the old woman did not call Bi'er back.

After Bi'er ran out of the room, she originally thought about picking up the pair of jade bracelets and returning them to Li Longqian, but who would have expected that the scene where the old woman threw the bracelets happened to be seen by Li Longqian who was passing by.

Qian picked up the bracelet on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief, and then wiped it hard.

"Fortunately, it wasn't broken." Li Longqian looked at the intact jade bracelet and muttered to himself, then turned around and left with the jade bracelet.

Standing on the stairs, Bi'er wanted to shout and explain, but Li Longqian walked too fast and didn't give Bi'er this chance.

"This Mother Zhang is really confused!"

Bi'er stamped her little feet and cursed, thinking about how Li Longqian must feel at this moment.



After Li Longqian returned to the room with the jade bracelet, he sat on the bedside and thought about Lan Aoxue's expression when the jade bracelet was thrown out.

disgust?

dislike?

ridiculous?

These words went back and forth in Li Longqian's mind. Although he never thought that Lan Aoxue would agree to marry him because of these bracelets, at least he understood his intentions. Who would have thought that they would throw them out?

, this move can be regarded as breaking Li Longqian's heart.

"You can return it if you don't want it. What's the matter with throwing it away?" Li Longqian muttered to himself, then slowly stood up and put the bracelet into the sandalwood box, and then locked the cabinet.

After walking around the house twice, Li Longqian finally calmed down. She was a wealthy lady, but she was just a poor waiter. Li Longqian said that besides the old slave's three sword moves, Li Longqian's martial arts skills

, then he knows nothing. Whether those three moves can defeat an ordinary martial artist may be a question. When it comes to knowledge, Li Longqian is full of idle books instead of sage books, so Lan Aoxue is like a fairy.

Why do you fancy yourself?

"Old slave, didn't you say that as long as the bracelet is given away, the emperor's daughter will have to marry? You have tricked me today. They just threw out my mother's relics as tattered things. You let me throw them away.

What a big face!”

Li Longqian thought about it and then picked up the peach wood sword again and started talking to himself.

"You said that you are just bragging every day. I think you made up all the things that are precious or not. I can't believe what you say in the future. I can't reach a woman like Lan Aoxue. I still can't reach her.

Feel free to be my waiter!"

After saying two sentences, Li Longqian seemed to be puzzled and added another sentence: "Damn old slave, if you were alive, I would have to break off those yellow teeth in your mouth to prevent you from grinning and talking nonsense every day! If I really believe it

If you tell me what you said, give me my mother

If I go to the emperor to propose marriage with my mother's relics, even if I am not shot to death by the imperial guards with iron arrows, I will still be laughed to death by everyone in the world. By the way, you said that my mother left me such a pair of bracelets, then my father

Did he leave anything for me?"

The wooden sword is speechless.

"Did you keep it for a silly old boy like you to secretly exchange it for flower wine?" Li Longqian then asked.

The wooden sword remained speechless.

"If I don't tell you, you are worse than your master. Your master still brags every day when there is nothing wrong. You don't know anything. Even if I burn you, you won't be able to make a sound!"

After Li Longqian put down his wooden sword, he picked up the book "On Common Life" which he had read in two days. At this time, Li Longqian already knew the book by heart. If Li Longqian's reading speed let others know, then

He must have been amazed. Photographic memory is an understatement. Even Su Qin, who is said to have walked around and looked at the monument, had to sigh to himself when he saw it.

“I have to go to the old gentleman’s house again to exchange books!”

Li Longqian stretched his waist, and then ran out of the house with the book "On Common Life".
