Chapter 2: How to Make a Living

"Sister, while it's still early, let's hurry back to the village." The little drum said after helping the little fish up.

Listening to Xiaogu's words, Xiaoyu was a little unrelievable, and she was unwilling to go back like this.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he reached into his sleeve and pulled out something.

When she raised her hand again, there was a palm-sized red cloth bag in her hand, and when she opened the cloth bag, there was a folded paper quietly placed inside, which looked very well preserved, and spread the paper flat, this paper was her marriage book with the third young master Li.

Xiao Yu stared at the marriage book for a long time, and then his face was happy.

Xiao Yu said to the small drum on the side with a smile: "It's still early, don't go back yet." ”

"Sister! You go back with me, don't think about that Raushzi Third Young Master Li, okay? ”

"Sister, when the little drum grows up, I can support you, even if you don't get married, it doesn't matter!" Seeing his sister say this, Xiao Gu only thought that she was not dead yet, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, and hurriedly patted his chest and promised.

Seeing Xiao Puff's puffing appearance, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "You, you, you're really a child, Sister doesn't have any other thoughts, don't worry, but there are other things to do." ”

Even if he listened to Sister A's assurance, Xiao Gu didn't believe it, just when his sister still had illusions about the marriage of the Li Mansion and hadn't given up, the look on his face was undisguised.

Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Gu's appearance, and knew that her brother was worried about it, and another good coax made Xiao Gu's complexion better.

Then he pulled the snare drum and walked towards the crowded part of the town.

Because Xiaoyu's father always brought two sisters and brothers to the town before his death, she was familiar with this place, and she walked to the most lively place in three or two clicks.

Xiaoyu and the two of them were both dressed in tattered cloth clothes, and they were still very buried on their bodies, looking like they were called flowers, and passers-by were afraid to avoid them both when they saw them.

When the two walked to the middle of the street, they saw that there was a place where people had set up a platform and were doing the hydrangea throwing to recruit relatives.

There was a lot of commotion over there, and Xiao Yu saw that there were big drums on both sides, so he picked up the mallet and hammered it on the drum surface, and everyone's eyes suddenly focused on her.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Although I don't know which young lady is throwing hydrangeas to recruit relatives, but I have the marriage book of the third young master of the Li Mansion in my hand, I don't know if this young lady is interested in learning about it?" ”

As soon as Xiao Yu's words landed, the crowd exploded.

"How can Young Master Li's marriage book be in your hands, it's fake!"

"Don't bother our young lady to recruit relatives, go quickly."

"Huh? How can I look at her like the one from Jiangjia Village, who is engaged to the third young master of the Li Mansion! At this moment, a man who recognized the small fish shouted.

"I look like it, I heard that I went to the Li Mansion to steal yesterday and was kicked out! What a shameless one. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone began to comment on Xiaoyu.

Xiao Yu listened to these words but ignored them, as if he was not a person in this game.

"Have you said enough? If you say enough, let's take a look at the marriage book of the third young master of the Li family in my hand, there is no other branch in this one, there is no such store in this village, and if you want to buy it, hurry up! Seeing the people chattering in front of him, Xiao Yu cleared his throat and shouted.

As soon as Xiao Yu said something, he joked: "You girl has been divorced, and you came out to sell your marriage book, no wonder people look down on you for this virtue." With that, he laughed, and everyone laughed too.

However, not far from the street, a passing man in white caught the words "Third Young Master Li", his figure froze, and he couldn't help but freeze, and then walked in the direction of Xiaoyu.

"This marriage book will be auctioned as soon as it is written, and the one with the highest price will get it." When the white-clothed boy walked to the lively crowd on the side, he saw a fat black girl shouting, and then those people rushed to bid, listening to those voices, the expression on the young man's face became more and more ugly, and his white face was like black charcoal at this time.

"It's too much of a deception! Master, I'll teach her a lesson! Seeing this, the little guy on the side was also angry, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward, but just as he was about to move, he was stopped by his own young master and had to give up.

"This girl sells the marriage book like this, don't make a good deal."

Just as Xiaoyu was listening to the price getting higher and higher, another different voice suddenly appeared.

When I raised my eyes, I saw that the white-clothed man in front of me was the appearance of a young man, with a jade figure, bright eyes, as if there was a starry sky in his eyes, his eyebrows were picturesque, handsome and extraordinary, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was the dream lover of the girl's family. An extraordinary outfit shows that his aura is extraordinary, either rich or expensive, and at first glance it is not the dress of ordinary people.

Xiao Yu couldn't help but admire the appearance of this white-clothed man, he really couldn't imagine that there would be such a person in this town, but he sighed in his heart, and then returned to his normal heart.

Ignoring the voice next to him, Xiao Yu opened his mouth and asked: "Since this marriage certificate is mine, what I do with it has nothing to do with my son, right?" Childe thinks my behavior is not good, don't look at it, don't delay my business. Then he shouted to continue the auction.

Hearing this, the face of the man in white continued to darken.

Why was he angry at Xiao Yu's behavior? Just because he is the other party on Xiaoyu's marriage book, Li Junqi, the third young master of the Li Mansion, he has been studying abroad since he was a child, and rarely returns to this Lotus Town, so everyone is not very familiar with what he looks like. Today is the day he returns from abroad, who would have thought that he would just step into the town and encounter this kind of thing!

Thinking of the previous correspondence with his mother, Li Junqi knew that this should be Jiang Xiaoyu, and he actually disagreed with his mother's approach, but he still didn't want his mother to be upset because of the people he hadn't seen yet, so he complied. Now it seems that her mother's approach is really right, looking at Jiang Xiaoyu's appearance and practice, Li Junqi has no good impression of her, and even a little disgusted, and feels more and more that this marriage is the right one!

"Twenty taels!"

As soon as the words came out, the surroundings immediately fell silent, and then the crowd smacked their tongues as if they had exploded, and then people turned their eyes to the source of the price just now, all wanting to see what this random person who gave out twenty taels looked like, after all, twenty taels is not a small amount, and there is no one in this town who can take it casually.

Xiao Yu's eyes also fell on Li Junqi with the crowd, and when he saw him at this time, he only felt that he was even better looking than when he saw him at first sight, he was simply an immortal! A fairy who specializes in sending money to her!

In Li's house, a woman who seemed to be very well maintained was sitting in the hall and taking a sip of tea.

This person is the former Mrs. Li Du who said that she did not go out to worship the Buddha in the house, this Du is a famous merchant girl, and Master Li is also a good match, at this time she is wearing luxurious clothes, on her head and body, all wearing exquisite jewelry, with beautiful makeup painted on her face, coupled with properly maintained skin, it looks like she is no more than thirty years.

"All dealt with? That dead girl can't come back. Raising his eyes, Du Shi opened his mouth to confirm.

"Madam, don't worry, the old woman won't make a mistake in doing things, if she still wants to be faced, she won't dare to come to the Li Mansion again, and she won't even dare to come to Lotus Town." Mrs. Song smiled with a meaty face.

"Well, that's good." Listening to Mrs. Song's words, Mrs. Li's heart was like a big stone falling to the ground, and she nodded lightly.

As the business of the Li Mansion became bigger and bigger, and his son's talent was gradually revealed, and he became more and more handsome, Du Shi looked back at the relationship with Jiang Jiading and became more and more dissatisfied, especially thinking of Jiang Xiaoyu, who was still cute and cute when he was a child, and now he has grown into a crooked melon and cracked dates, and he is even more dissatisfied in his heart, feeling that his son's wife should not be this disgusting appearance.

With Li Junqi's excellence and Jiang Xiaoyu's rudeness, she became more and more dissatisfied, and regardless of whether Jiang Xiu's behavior would give the Jiang family a blow to the head not long after Jiang Xiu left, he let Master Li retire this family business.

"Madame is really blessed, having such a good son as the third young master, many people can't envy it." Mrs. Song couldn't stop patting her ass.

Listening to Mrs. Song's words, Sun's heart was quite useful, and an undisguised proud smile appeared on his face. Her son is her pride, he must be matched with the best things in the world, he will not be stained with any flaws, and he will definitely be a big official in the capital in the future, and he should marry a lady from an official family who is also a serious child. At the thought of this, Sun's face became even more radiant, as if he had seen the future in his reverie.

"The third young master is back, the third young master is back!"

Just as he was fantasizing about the full house of children and grandchildren under his knees, Sun heard the exclamation from the door, and his heart was overjoyed, and he got up and walked in the direction of the gate of the Li Mansion.

As soon as he walked to the yard, Sun saw the person he was thinking of appear in front of him, and he was even more happy, and he couldn't help but speed up his trot on his feet.

It's just that the closer the two go, the Sun family saw that his son's face was quite bad, and he was puzzled, and when he arrived in front of him, he couldn't help asking, "Qi'er, did you work the road?" Why is your face so bad, you can rest when you go home. With that, he took Li Junqi's arm and wanted to walk inside.

Just as he was about to raise his feet, he heard the person on the side say coldly: "Mother, do you know what good things you have done?" ”

Sun was still immersed in the joy of Li Junqi's return, and he didn't feel the unhappiness in his tone at all, and he couldn't stop shouting at Li Junqi.

After a long while, Sun seemed to realize his emotions, and asked with a smile on his face: "Qi'er, what's wrong with my mother." ”

Hearing this, when he thought of the scene on the street just now, Li Junqi's face couldn't help but turn black again, and he didn't mean to speak, but just glanced at the little guy behind him.

The little servant told word for word what had just happened on the street, and Sun only felt dizzy and almost unsteady when he listened.

Then she turned her head away, staring at Mrs. Song who had promised her a good meal with anger on her face, if her eyes could be turned into knives, then Mrs. Song's face should be full of holes at this time.

Mrs. Song was still proud for a while, but when she learned what happened on the street, she was like a basin of cold water poured on her, and she had beaten the girl half to death along with other people in the house, and she couldn't figure out where the girl from the Jiang family had the courage to do such a thing.

At this time, Mrs. Song saw Sun's eyes, her heart was terrified, and she hurriedly knelt down: "Madam, the old slave doesn't know what went wrong, that girl is really cunning, give the old slave another chance, and I will definitely make that dead girl not appear in this world again!" ”

When Li Junqi heard this, a trace of disgust appeared in his eyes, and he frowned and said: "It's really enough, it's too much to deal with that kind of person, it seems that the Li family is stingy." ”

That girl is very cunning, auctioning the marriage book, if he doesn't buy it, this marriage book will be embarrassed if it falls into the hands of others, if he buys it, then the entire Lotus Town will say that he is only worth twenty taels, which really makes him in a dilemma.

He tore the marriage certificate in his hand and threw it to the ground, and without looking at it, he raised his feet and strode away, leaving only an arrogant and cold voice: "How much my Li Junqi is worth is not calculated by what they say, my life is up to me." ”

Du Shi didn't have much knowledge, and he didn't understand the meaning of his words, but when he saw his son's appearance, he said with a smile on his face: "Okay, okay, don't worry about the girl in the countryside, Qi'er hurry up and go into the house to rest." ”

After that, he followed Li Junqi into the house, leaving only the torn marriage book all over the ground, and as soon as the wind blew, nothing was gone.
