Shi Yan felt the cold air emitted by his master almost immediately, and said in his heart, Miss Luo can't do it, how can she invite other men to see the persimmon tree?

Especially when their master was still sitting here.

Lin Shu also felt a burst of coldness, but he couldn't resist his cousin's worries, and immediately responded.

Seeing the two walking side by side towards the door leading to the backyard, Wei Han put the wine cup on the table and made a noise.

Although the voice was soft, it was like thunder when it fell on Shi Yan's ears.

Master, this is planning to follow!

Unexpectedly, the slender hand lifted the flask, refilled the glass, and continued to drink.

Shi Yan: "......"

Lin Shu followed Luo Sheng into the backyard and saw a young man chopping wood.

The red lanterns under the eaves emit an orange glow, illuminating the snow-covered yard.

A burly man stood not far away, staring at the young man chopping wood with a face full of meat.

"The axe is not held like that, it is not happy to chop like that......" the strong man's dissatisfied voice sounded.

Lin Shu somehow breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that it's just chopping wood!

He tilted his head to look at the girl standing beside him.

The girl looked at the young man who was chopping wood faintly, unable to distinguish her emotions.

"Miss Luo—" Lin Shu opened his mouth, quietly pinching the purse that had been stuffed with some silver coins in a hurry.

Luo Sheng looked over.

Lin Shu stabilized his mind and asked tentatively, "I don't know how much money Miss Luo spent to redeem Xu Qi?" ”

I heard that the people in Qianjinfang sold her cousin for three hundred taels, and as for how much Miss Luo spent to buy her cousin, there are different opinions.

Some say it costs 1,000 taels, and some say it costs 10,000 taels.

If it was 10,000 taels - Lin Shu felt that it was a little difficult to breathe, so he decided not to think about this for the time being.

Luo Sheng's tone was light: "Not much, fifty taels." ”

Lin Shu was stunned.

Xiaoqiguan bought his cousin for 300 taels, and sold it for 50 taels backhand?

"Gold?"

Luo Sheng smiled: "Even firewood can't be chopped well, it's worth fifty taels of gold?" ”

Lin Shu breathed a sigh of relief: "I wonder if Miss Luo can make it convenient for me to take my cousin away?" I would like to give a hundred taels of silver as a reward for Miss Luo. ”

Luo Sheng mercilessly refused: "Don't resell." ”

"Don't go too far!" The young man who found his cousin coming over rushed over and yelled at Luo Sheng when he heard this.

Luo Sheng looked at him expressionlessly: "Is it too full to eat, or is it too easy to chop firewood?" Don't forget that your deed of sale is still in my possession. ”

Xu Qi was deflated all of a sudden, thinking of the deed of sale that represented shame, his eyes were red.

Lin Shu couldn't bear it, and said softly: "Miss Luo, as you said, my cousin can't even chop firewood, please make it convenient for me, let me take him away, and I won't trouble you." ”

Luo Sheng smiled: "I'm not too troublesome, and I'm not bad for money, I like to watch him chop wood honestly." If Lin Ergongzi is not at ease, he can come to see him often. ”

Often?

Wei Han, who came out of the thick cotton curtain, heard this, and pursed his thin lips slightly.

"Second Master Lin doesn't think it's good for your cousin to chop firewood honestly?" Luo Sheng asked calmly.

Lin Shu was stunned and subconsciously looked at Xu Qi.

The boy had an axe in his hand, his cheeks reddened, and he stood like a vibrant aspen in the snow-covered yard.

He thought of his cousin's impatience when he told him not to gamble anymore.

The tone of impatience, the impatient demeanor, the whole person is full of impatient decadence.

is obviously only a fifteen-year-old boy, but it makes people smell rotten.

Lin Shu suddenly figured it out.

Yes, compared to a cousin like that, the cousin who honestly chops wood in front of him is undoubtedly better.

He sincerely arched his hand at Luo Sheng: "In this way, I will bother Miss Luo in the future." ”

"Cousin!" Xu Qi was shocked.

Lin Shu walked over and patted Xu Qi on the shoulder: "Cousin, you can stay here with peace of mind, I will come to see you often in the future, and if you have any difficulties, tell your cousin." ”

"Cousin, have you been brainwashed by that female demon?" Xu Qi pointed at Luo Sheng sadly.

Luo Sheng's expression was indifferent: "To be precise, you should call me master." ”

The young man's expression distorted instantly, and he wanted to rush forward with an axe, but he thought that he couldn't even beat the white goose in this wine shop, so he had to silently dispel this unrealistic idea.

"Cousin, don't forget that your deed of sale is still in Miss Luo's hands, and your cousin's face is not as big as you think." Lin Shu reminded again and said goodbye to Luo Sheng.

"Since Second Prince Lin is here, you might as well go to the lobby to have a glass of wine to warm up."

Still want to warm up?

Wei Han, who was standing by the door, raised his eyebrows.

Lin Shu hesitated.

Although he came at half price every time, the food and wine in one wine shop were too expensive for a poor student like him to bear.

"Didn't you bring money to ransom your cousin?" Luo Sheng reminded intimately.

Lin Shu suddenly said with a bit of confusion: "I haven't come to the wine store to eat for some days, so I'll go have a drink." ”

Passing by Wei Han, the young man was deeply moved: "The student has seen the prince. ”

Wei Han nodded reservedly: "No need to be polite. ”

Seeing Lin Shu enter the lobby, Wei Han walked towards Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng smiled and asked, "Why did the prince come over?" ”

"Come and see the persimmon tree."

And Xu Qi ignored the pair of men and women who were looking at the persimmon tree, and watched his cousin's figure disappear behind the cotton curtain, and his heart ached.

So in the end, the cousin left him to chop wood and drank wine with the money he had prepared to ransom him?

Not to mention the sorrow of the firewood chopping boy, Changchun Hou got the news that Xu Qi was bought by Miss Luo, and his mood was complicated and unspeakable, and finally he had to comfort himself that he had become the son of an abandoned son and it was better to be the head of Miss Luo than to be a little girl.

And Xu Fang also learned the news from the maid Hongyue.

Xu Fang stayed awake all night, tossing and turning on the couch, thinking about one thing repeatedly: Should she ask Miss Luo for help?

She shouldn't have asked anyone for help for such a thing, but she couldn't do anything about it.

At least for now, as a girl who has not come out of the cabinet, what can be done is too limited.

Xu Fang made a decision.

Early in the morning, when the snow had stopped, she hurried out, but was stopped at the door.

"Master Hou let the eldest girl have a good rest." The doorman smiled and didn't smile.

Hongyue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xu Fang: "I'm going to see my father." ”

After arguing with a doorman for a long time, she couldn't get out, and she was the one who lost face.

Changchun Hou was in a depressed mood and was sulking in the study, when he heard a voice from outside the door: "Father, I'm Fang'er, can I come in?" ”

Changchun Hou frowned and said lightly: "Come in." ”

A moment later, the door was pushed open, and Xu Fang walked in gently.

Seeing that his daughter saluted, Chang Chunhou asked with a little impatience: "What's the matter?" ”

Xu Fang lowered her eyes and said, "My daughter wants to go to Miss Luo." ”

When Changchun Hou heard this, his face sank: "What do you always want to do when it's cold?" ”

"That's right, my daughter went to a wine shop that day, and when she heard the news of her eldest brother's accident and didn't give money, she rushed back in a hurry.
