Chapter 49: A Reluctant Invitation

Only she and Shen Chuming were left in the room.

The air was suddenly quiet.

Su Yu held the cup, her fingers moving around, inexplicably uncomfortable.

To be honest, she hadn't met Shen Chuming a few times, and she was still a little jealous of his reputation, and it was impossible for her to open up in front of him.

It's just that he saved her before, and just now he lied for her, and she hasn't figured out how to repay him.

"That's what they are, don't worry about it." Shen Chuming sat down, pushed away the book on the table, and poured her favorite tea for her.

"Hmm." Su Yu also lost the restraint in front of him before, but she was not very calm, her eyes looked left and right, and finally landed on the table, "Third master, do you like to read this kind of book?" ā€

It is an obscure ancient text, with a title that resembles a scripture and a history book.

"Brought back from school to pass the time, it's usually my eldest brother who watches." Shen Chuming took a sip of tea, turned the teacup, and lifted his eyelids again, "I don't like it very much." ā€

Su Yu expressed her understanding.

His eldest brother must have been an intellectual, and he was very knowledgeable. This kind of complex book is generally only accepted by libraries at or above the provincial level.

His eldest brother often watches it, and he must have studied it a lot. If this kind of person is placed in Xiayang Village, it will be too condescending.

"Third master, do you often go out of the village?"

"It's fine."

Shen Chuming thought she was curious, and she was also interested, and she scattered a little, "I went to the mountains to hunt prey, dug up herbs, and sometimes took them to the town to sell." ā€

"The village is too poor, and there is nothing to grow in the field, and the seeds that I made in exchange for a bet with Shangyang Village were also wiped out by last year's snow."

Bet on changing seeds?

Doesn't he often make appointments with people from Shangyang Village? I heard that he also formed a lot of friendships with those people.

Besides, the people in the village were very afraid of him, and they didn't have a good evaluation of him behind his back, and he even cared about the lives of the people in Xiayang Village.

But this is not something she should ask, Su Yu had to hide her curiosity.

Thinking of the words of the little fox in her heart, she touched the cup back and forth, and said with some hesitation, "That...... Third master, I have a reluctant request......"

Shen Chuming looked over and waited for her to speak.

Su Yu also felt embarrassed, but she didn't just think about the little fox, "Can you take me with you next time you go up the mountain?" I—I want to ......"

Shen Chuming's eyes wandered over her, he didn't agree, he didn't refuse, and chuckled, "It's dangerous in the mountains, what are you going to do with a little girl?" ā€

As if remembering something, he sat up straight, his fingers tapping on the table, his eyes sharply and earnestly examining her.

Under the rainstorm that day, the little girl in front of him was clearly out of breath, and he didn't plan to save it.

But then, her fingers suddenly trembled, and they rose and fell slightly.

That's ......

"I ......" Su Yu couldn't guess what he meant, and his scalp tightened, "I also want to dig herbs and sell them to subsidize my family." Moreover, I haven't seen what a pheasant in the mountains looks like, and I want to see it. I promise not to cause trouble for you third master. ā€

Afraid that he would not believe it, she said, "My luck as a person has always been good. I used to study with Uncle Zhang for a while, and I recognized more herbs. If you take me there, the harvest will be greater than it is now. ā€

Su Yu just looked at him like that, her eyes were clear and eager, "Third Master, can you take me there......

The little girl's voice was lowered, delicate and sweet, similar to Jiangnan Minor, with a bit of begging, like a cat's paw gently scratching, and the tip of her heart was tickling.

Anyone who reads and listens to it will not be able to stand it.

Shen Chuming's hand holding the cup froze, and he was so stunned by her delicate smell that he forced himself to open his eyes, "Cough, I ......"

How can there be such a catchy eye in the world?

It's no different from a leprechaun.

Su Yu looked at his face nervously, thinking that he would not agree, and she didn't want to embarrass people, "It's okay if you don't go, I'm just ......."

"Okay."
