Lu Yuan glanced at Chu Yunting shyly, but unfortunately Chu Yunting didn't even pick his eyelids.

Cao Xiulan saw that Chu Yunting had been silent, and laughed a little embarrassedly and said, "Second brother, it's just a false name, you see that Miss Lu has no opinion." ”

The implication is that girls don't care, what are you awkward? Only Cao Xiulan dared to say this, the day before yesterday, Li Tianlang and Qin Shou jointly deceived Chu Yunting and let him win the lottery. is also kind to help him solve the problem of being single. Who knew that he would be so angry, he chased Li Tianlang for so long in Taiping Town yesterday, and then he didn't know if he was fighting with someone or what, and he came back with a body of blood. was so frightened that Li Tianlang still didn't dare to go back to the mountain.

It was only a day later, and the people from Huaishupo came to the door. Qin Beichuan pulled Cao Xiulan out, Chu Yunting had a bad temper, but he has always respected this sister-in-law. She can sit still, otherwise she is afraid that the people on the locust slope will be blasted out by him.

After Cao Xiulan finished speaking, several people stared at Chu Yunting. But he sat there quietly, silent like a god in a temple, indifferent, detached, and empty-eyed.

Let the people who looked at him naturally admire him, and did not dare to look directly, as if it would be blasphemous to look at him more.

Lu Yuan's heart was beating suddenly, she felt that this was fate, the fate between her and Chu Yunting!

In the entire living room, he was quiet, waiting for Chu Yunting to speak, but he just didn't say a word.

Xiucai Gong stood up and arched his hand at them and said, "Actually, we went up the mountain today, and there was another thing. ”

As he spoke, he took out the letter from the morning in his sleeve and presented it with both hands.

Cao Xiulan took the letter, unfolded it, and glanced at it before handing it to Qin Beichuan. Qin Beichuan also glanced at her helplessly, the whole cottage knew that she couldn't read, what was the need for this glance?

Xiucai Gong saw that Cao Xiulan read the letter, and immediately said respectfully: "Mrs. Qin, you read what the letter said, Niutoushan is really too deceitful. ”

Cao Xiulan said to Xiucai very frankly: "I can't read. After speaking, he leaned his neck and looked at Qin Beichuan's face, Qin Beichuan looked at it and handed it to Chu Yunting.

Chu Yunting already knew the content of this letter, so he swept it and put it on the coffee table at hand.

Xiucai stood on the ground a little embarrassed.

"What does the letter say?" Cao Xiulan couldn't wait to ask.

Qin Beichuan looked at Chu Yunting, Chu Yunting twisted the index finger and thumb of his left hand, and finally raised his eyelids and said, "Let you replace Lu Yuan with three girls, and the ransom is still five hundred taels." ”

"Yes!" Xiucai replied sadly. But the expression of grief and indignation has not yet been put forward. I heard Chu Yunting say casually: "It seems that Niutoushan doesn't want to sell this face, if Qingfeng Village is reluctant, I'm afraid it will cause a fight between the two cottages." ”

"This ...... What does it mean to be in charge? Xiucaigong felt that things were not good, and his heart became worried.

Chu Yunting glanced at Qin Beichuan, and said with some blame: "My eldest brother owes Patriarch Lu a favor, and we will naturally keep his daughter, but there is really nothing else we can do." ”

Qin Beichuan said a little anxiously: "Second brother, that Niutou Mountain ......"

"Huh! Big brother, it's only five hundred taels, and our Qingfeng Village is not unaffordable, so we will send them to ransom. Although Niutou Mountain and we are in Niugao County, one south and one north, do not interfere with each other. But after all, they are like-minded people. Still can't hurt the harmony. It's also a compromise. Chu Yunting blocked Qin Beichuan's words and finished his thoughts slowly.

Xiucai Gong lamented: "I understand the meaning of the second master, but this time I want the three of us at once!" Who would want to send their daughter there? ”

Chu Yunting narrowed his narrow phoenix eyes with a smile and said, "Then let Miss Lu exchange, one for three, no matter how you look at it, it's cost-effective." ”

"Second brother!" Cao Xiulan reprimanded softly.

Lu Yuan's face turned pale from the shy flush just now. She didn't expect Chu Yunting to say such a thing. thought that although he wanted to be a nominal fiancé with her, he would look at her differently. didn't think that Chu Yunting didn't take her in his eyes at all, let alone take it to heart.

Chu Yunting chuckled and said, "Qingfeng Village welcomes Miss Lu, it doesn't represent me personally. For the sake of Miss Lu's reputation, only a few of us here know about pretending to be engaged. I don't want to wait until Patriarch Lu comes back safely. This matter was naturally cancelled. ”

When he said this, Cao Xiulan was naturally happy, and Lu Yuan's worried heart was also put into his stomach. Then Chu Yunting said another cold sentence, "Just this once, not for example." ”

"That's, that's," Qin Beichuan was stubborn and responded to him. It's not that he is afraid of the dominatrix in the family, otherwise Lu Yunian's daughter is not in his pocket. Now that it's cheap, Chu Yunting doesn't appreciate it yet.

Xiucai Gong saw that this time he went up the mountain, and he was also very rewarded, and he received a subsidy of five hundred taels of silver from Qingfeng Village. As long as the three girls selected on the list are sent to Niutou Mountain together and exchanged for Lu Yunian, this matter will be solved. I wanted to take Lu Chengding to say goodbye.

Lu Chengding handed a package to Lu Yuan and told her to be more careful here. She can't go back to Huaishupo now, if the other Lu family members know that because Lu Yuan was sheltered by Qingfeng Village, the other three girls suffered, it will inevitably cause a shock in the clan. had to lie to the people in the ancestral hall, saying that she had not returned.

Lu Chengding and Xiucai Gong were just about to leave the door of the living room, when Chu Yunting suddenly asked, "Can someone go up to the back mountain on the eighteenth day of the last month?" ”

Lu Chengding and Xiucaigong looked at each other, not understanding what he meant by asking. The two of them turned around, and Xiucaigong asked: "Although our Huaishupo and Qingfeng Village are close neighbors, people in our village rarely go up the back mountain. I don't know what's the matter with the second master asking this? Do you need me to go back and ask? ”

Chu Yunting was a little disappointed, but he was still unwilling to say: "It doesn't matter, I got help from a woman that day, she didn't leave her name, I always wanted to find a chance to repay her, but it was too dark at the time, I was seriously injured, and I really didn't have a chance to ask her name and residence." I've been inquiring for more than half a month, just hoping to find her and express my gratitude. ”

Qin Beichuan listened to him with sharp ears, but his heart was full of total, it turned out that the woman he was looking for was this reason? But what Qin Shou said was very ambiguous!

Lu Chengding and Xiucai Gong both shook their heads, and Lu Chengding said: "If it's a woman, it's not necessarily from our village." ”

Lu Yuan listened to his words, but he had an idea, and walked up to everyone and said, "The person the second master is looking for may really be someone from our Huai Shupo." ”
