Chapter 25: Don't Look Away
When a strong arm wrapped around her slender waist and carried her to swim upward, she was like grasping a life-saving straw and hugged him tightly.
Ling Shengyi was uncomfortable being hugged by Chu Yuqin.
Until she surfaced, she still hugged his neck tightly. Fortunately, his skills are good, otherwise he would have been affected by her just now.
"It's safe."
Chu Yuqin couldn't hear Ling Shengyi's words, her head was buzzing.
The usually spicy girl showed her weak side at this time, her eyes were full of horror, and she obviously hadn't calmed down.
"Miss Chu, it's safe."
Ling Shengyi pinched her man.
Chu Yuqin was in pain and looked at Ling Shengyi.
Ling Shengyi looked at her lightly: "It's safe." ”
Repeating the words 'safe' for the third time finally woke up Chu Yuqin.
She came back to her senses and saw that she was holding Ling Shengyi's neck, but the latter did not ......
"Ahh She shook him off in fright.
But Ling Shengyi didn't let go of her, he took her ashore.
"Alright. You ......" Ling Shengyi shifted his gaze.
"The reeds are high here, you can hide for a while. I'll go back and give an explanation to your brother and ask your family to bring clothes. ”
"Okay." Chu Yuqin squatted on the ground and hugged himself, "Thank you." If it weren't for you, I would have died. ”
She's not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do.
Although this situation is quite embarrassing, but the other party is kind enough to save her, and she will not do anything to embarrass the other party.
"If someone asked, I would say that I stepped on the air and accidentally fell, but I didn't fall into the river."
Ling Shengyi exhaled lightly.
It seems that he did not save the wrong person.
"The girl is a person who understands."
After Ling Shengyi left, Chu Yuqin looked at the wooden basin in the water and those petals distressedly.
Forget about the petals, and then go to the mountains to pick them, but the wooden basin is a rare property in the family, and watching a few pennies drift away, this is very uncomfortable for her as a rich slave.
She looked around, found a long branch, took two steps forward, and tried to pull the tub over, but kept it farther and farther away.
"Sister...... Sister ......"
Chu Yulan's voice was getting closer and closer.
Chu Yuqin had no choice but to give up his useless efforts and respond in a low voice.
"I'm here."
Chu Yulan found her and was very worried when she saw her so embarrassed.
"Are you alright?"
Chu Yuqin spread out his hands and pretended to be helpless: "I'm fine, the basin is lost." ”
"If you lose the basin, you can buy it again, if you lose it, the family will not cry to death?"
Chu Yulan handed her the prepared towel.
"Dry the water first, then change into dry clothes. There's no one here, I'll keep an eye on it for you. ”
Chu Yuqin deliberately came to this remote place in order to avoid the long-tongued aunt. But after what had just happened, she no longer believed that there was no one here.
If there was really no one, how could Ling Shengyi be here? Judging by the way he looked just now, it was obvious that he had come here to swim a lot.
"I'll go change in the reeds."
"Done."
The reeds grow tall. Chu Yuqin didn't dare to delay, and quickly changed his clothes.
When I came out, my hair was still dripping. She was wrapped in a towel.
"Dry your hair before you go!"
Chu Yulan took the towel in her hand and helped her wipe her hair.
"Sister, fortunately you didn't fall. As a child you fell into the water, and since then you have been afraid to go into the water. ”
Chu Yuqin thought to himself: It turns out that we still have so many similarities.
"I'm going to the temple another day. If it weren't for luck today, it would have been possible ......"
The Chu sisters went home empty-handed. The lady who was washing clothes just now looked at Chu Yuqin.
"Qin girl, why did you change your clothes?"
Chu Yuqin said lightly: "I came out to wash the petals just now, and I splashed my sleeves, so I simply changed my clothes and washed the dirty ones by the way." ”
"You're really exquisite. It's just a little wet sleeve, and it's okay to bask in such a big sun. But you have money in your house, and you have a lot of clothes, and you have more beautiful clothes when you change them. It's not like us poor ghosts, who don't even have good clothes, let alone a few clothes that we change casually. ”
"Auntie, with such a big sun, aren't you tired of standing and talking?"
Chu Yuqin smiled.
"I haven't seen your mother for a long time, so I'm going to your house for a glass of water. I'm also tired from doing laundry. Just take a break. ”
The woman thought that Chu Yuqin had invited her to be a guest, and she happened to be a little curious about the current situation of the Chu family, so she wanted to follow the Chu family sisters.
Chu Yuqin stood in front of the woman and smiled: "My mother is not at home." Even if the aunt went, she wouldn't be able to see her. I mean, with such a big sun, my aunt is not tired of standing here and talking, we are a little tired. Auntie, let's go back to drying clothes quickly! Otherwise, when the sun goes down, the clothes will not dry, how will I wear them tomorrow? ”
The woman's face was ugly.
Chu Yuqin is clearly sarcastic that her family is poor and has no clothes to wear.
But these words were said by herself, and she did not even have a word of rebuttal.
"Qin girl, your mouth is really neat. But ah, the little girl's family is still more gentle and cute. Like your sister, at such a young age, there are already people asking about her. And you, I'm afraid you're going to stay at home and be an old girl. After all, this reputation is stinky, and no one dares to marry a restless daughter-in-law like you. ”
"Aunt Lao, thank you so much. It doesn't matter if I get married or not, I can live a beautiful life anyway. ”
"Whew! See how proud you are. ”
"I'm young, and I'm definitely going to live longer than you."
"You! There are no rules. I really don't know how your mother taught you. ”
Chu Yulan looked at Chu Yuqin with admiring eyes.
"Sister, when it comes to the war of words, I only obey you."
"Don't learn from me. Didn't you hear her? I'm so staked that I'm destined to be an old girl. Or is it a gentle little girl like you who is more lovable. ”
Chu Yuqin pinched Chu Yulan's little face.
"It's so tender."
Chu Yulan was embarrassed: "Sister, you tease me again." ”
"It's not funny. A little girl like you is really attractive! Chu Yuqin took Chu Yulan's hand. Walk! Went home. ”
When I got home, I saw Chu Lihong writing with a tree branch in the yard.
She said while drying her clothes: "Didn't you buy the four treasures of the study?" ”
"I'm a beginner now, and I can't write well. It's better to practice more on the ground, and then write it down on paper after practicing. ”
Chu Lihong replied while writing crookedly.
"Sister, come and see, I learned the sky today, and there are still people."
