Chapter 57: Thirteen

Chapter 57

Shanniang thought that Lin Ruting called her away alone to ask her about the dispute with Lin Ruxuan, and didn't want him to ask about that topic from beginning to end, just casually talking about some interesting anecdotes when she was collecting donations with Mrs. Lin everywhere.

That Lin Ruting walked in front with a bucket of paste, and Shanniang followed behind with a stack of sticks, and the two talked and laughed all the way, and went up to the third floor.

Through the railing of the corridor, Shan Niang inadvertently looked at the podium on the first floor, and saw that the people on the stage were running to other people's bookcases from time to time to laugh and laugh, and she realized that although everyone on the stage was chatting with each other like this before, no one had ever come to her...... In other words, she was invisibly ostracized!

And, although she didn't notice it herself, obviously Lin Ruting noticed it, because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she took the initiative to take her away......

He is really a gentle and considerate person.

Shanniang looked up at Lin Ruting.

Lin Ruting was holding the sticker, comparing it with the old label that was originally quite scribbled on the donation. Sensing her gaze, he turned his head to look at her, then smiled inquiringly.

Shanniang blinked silently, flicked the sign in her hand and smiled: "Find one." ”

*・*・*

Shanniang was only temporarily brought in to help because of the old lady's words, but Lin Ruting was the organizer of the entire fundraising preparation, so he had to be approached everywhere if there was any problem. He and Shanniang had just exchanged a few signatures here, and they could hear the voice of "Senior Lin" upstairs and downstairs.

Shanniang smiled and took the paste bucket in his hand and said, "Senior, go quickly, I'll look for it slowly by myself." ”

Lin Ruting hesitated for a while, thought about it, and said, "Then I'll call someone else to come over for me." ”

"No," Shan Niang shook her hand, "Actually, you don't need two people, you can do it alone, it's just a slower movement." ”

Lin Ruting still insisted: "I'll call someone over again." Then he smiled apologetically at her and turned away.

Shan Niang was holding the new color sticks here, and was working carefully on the old sticks on the donated items one by one, when she suddenly heard a small sound of footsteps coming from the stairs behind her. She thought it was someone called by Lin Ruting, but when she looked back, she saw Hou Shishi tiptoeing up, and looking around with a probing head.

Shanniang frowned, guessing that she was probably here for Yuan Changqing, so she put down the paste bucket in her hand, and was just about to call out to stop Fourteen, when she suddenly heard a voice shouting in a suppressed voice: "Fourteenth sister." ”

It was a boy's voice.

Not only was Shanniang startled, but Fourteen Niang was also taken aback, turned her head to look, and saw that Yuan Changxing was hiding his round body in the shadow of the stairs, beckoning at Fourteen Niang.

Shanniang blinked, and hurriedly hid herself behind an embroidered screen - although it was not taboo for a man and a woman to speak in one place in such a public, but for some reason, Yuan Changxing's sneaky appearance inexplicably made her feel that she was not suitable to appear at this time.

Fourteen Xu was also affected by the same influence, and inexplicably looked around nervously for a while, but he stood there and did not walk over. She bowed to Yuan Changxing, subconsciously lowered her voice, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Yuan Er's cousin." Why is my cousin here? ”

Yuan Changxing looked around, and saw that there was really no one around, so he walked out of the shadows and smiled at Fourteen: "Thanks to my aunt's kindness, my grandmother will stay in this Meishan Town for two more months before she goes back." But my grandmother was worried about my studies, so she told the senior of Meishan Academy and asked me to borrow two months from the academy temporarily. He added, "I saw the notice and heard that people were being recruited to help with the spring fundraiser, so I came here to help." Unexpectedly, the fourteenth sister is not only beautiful, but also so kind-hearted, and she is also here to help. ”

As he spoke, Yuan Changxing slammed towards Fourteen Niang to the ground, but tilted his head slightly, and looked at Hou Fourteen with flattering eyes.

Fourteen was suddenly blushed by his frivolous eyes, and his heart was both a little annoyed and a little indescribable pride, so he turned sideways and looked around, and said, "There is no one here, it is inconvenient to speak, let's go to someone to talk." ”

"It's just that no one is good to speak," Yuan Chang suddenly approached Fourteen, and said in a low voice: "My sister doesn't know, since I saw my sister, I ...... in my heart."

"Brother Xing? How did you end up here?! ”

Suddenly, a cold voice interrupted his sweet words.

Hou Shishi and Yuan Changxing were startled, and the two quickly turned around, only to see Yuan Changqing coming up from downstairs, standing on the stairs with his hands on the railing, frowning at them.

Fourteen's face turned red, but he quickly glanced at Yuan Changxing, then bypassed him, walked to the staircase, curtsied to Yuan Changqing, who was still on the stairs, and called "big cousin" aggrievedly, "I was looking for my classmate, but I didn't expect to meet Yuan Er's cousin here." The second cousin said that he had something to say to me, and while he was talking, the eldest cousin came. ”

There was nothing wrong with this, but her coquettish tone as if she had been wronged made people feel that it must be Yuan Changxing who insisted on pulling her to speak.

Shanniang's eyes flashed, and she secretly poked out an eye from behind the embroidered screen, just in time to see Yuan Changxing's cold eyes like ice blades behind Fourteen.

Shanniang blinked, and quickly hid herself back again.

Yuan Changxing stared at the back of the fourteenth and sneered silently, then raised his eyes to look at Yuan Changqing, and shouted: "Wronged, the fourteenth cousin misunderstood me, I saw that the fourteenth cousin was following the eldest brother, and he was still following in the wrong direction, so I kindly came to remind her, but I didn't say anything, and the eldest brother came." ”

Fourteen's cheeks suddenly turned red, "The second and second cousins also misunderstood me, I, I'm not looking for the eldest cousin." But she couldn't stand any longer, and hurriedly said, "I, I seem to hear my classmates calling me......" and ran away.

Looking at the fourteenth mother who ran away, Yuan Changxing sneered, turned back to Yuan Changqing and said, "This one, the eldest brother can not think about it, it is very frivolous." If the eldest brother marries her, he may be cuckolded at some point. ”

Yuan Changqing was still frowning and looking at him, but he asked the exact same question as before: "Why are you here?" ”

Yuan Changxing looked at him from the corner of his eye, turned around and saluted respectfully at Yuan Changqing, and said, "I forgot to tell Brother SΓΉ." Because my aunt and grandmother hadn't seen each other for many years, and I wanted to stay here for a longer time, my grandmother was worried that I would abandon my studies, so she went through the procedures for me to borrow from this Meishan Academy. He straightened up again and smiled, "From now on, my eldest brother and I will be classmates again." ”

Yuan Changqing's eyebrows tightened a little tighter, and he asked, "Then what are you doing here?" ”

"Learn from Big Brother!" Yuan Changxing blinked with a pair of innocent eyes and smiled: "I saw a recruitment notice posted at the entrance of the academy, saying that people are being recruited here to help prepare for the spring fundraiser. I was just curious, so I came to take a casual look, but I didn't want to see the eldest brother. The eldest brother has set an example here, how can I be left behind, brother? So I signed up too. ”

He suddenly stepped forward, approached Yuan Changqing's side, lowered his voice and smiled: "What surprised me was that I actually saw several sisters and sisters of the Hou family here. It seems that these sisters and sisters are very fond of their brother. But speaking of which, the eldest brother's luck is really jealous, and these sisters and sisters of the Hou family are all great beauties. ”

He took a step back, looked at Yuan Changqing and said with a smile: "I think the eldest brother should hurry up and choose one, I'm afraid that something will happen sooner or later if I hang someone like this." As he spoke, he looked around and pointed downstairs with a pretentious gesture, saying, "Ah, it seems that someone needs help there." Big brother, I'll go over first. ”

Looking at his back running away, Yuan Changqing's eyebrows were almost twisted into a pimple.

After embroidering the screen, Shanniang's brows were almost twisted into a pimple. In her previous life, her impression of Yuan Changxing was that he was very in awe of Yuan Changqing. Now observing the brothers behind her back, she suddenly felt that this "awe" was not as "awe" as she thought.

Suddenly, a sigh came from outside the embroidery screen.

Shanniang poked out an eye curiously, but she was immediately startled.

That Yuan Changqing was standing on the stairs, she shouldn't have seen him, but she didn't want him to have a pair of cat feet and paws, and he walked silently, at this time he had silently walked to the railing of the corridor, and was propping his hands on the railing, hanging his head, looking like he was carrying a thousand pounds on his shoulders.

Shanniang bit her lip and frowned silently. At the moment, she is really under the melon field, if she is discovered by Yuan Changqing, it means that she is not hiding from him, and it is impossible to tell at this time.

She was praying that Yuan Changqing would hurry up and leave, not wanting to come again.

"Boss Yuan," the man had already opened his mouth in a hurry before he could fully walk up the stairs, "that little bastard is coming to trouble you again?!" "--The road is narrow, and the person who came was actually Lin Ruxuan!

Thinking that Lin Ruxuan had already misunderstood her so much, if he found out that she was actually "hiding here and peeking at Yuan Changqing", then she couldn't tell it clearly, and Shanniang couldn't help but grin bitterly.

Yuan Changqing and Lin Ruxuan didn't know that there was a third person here. Then Yuan Changqing looked back at Lin Ruxuan, only turned his head again without saying a word, and looked down at Yuan Changxing talking to the students of the women's school downstairs.

Obviously, his silence made Lin Ruxuan very dissatisfied, "You! He complained and walked over, learned Yuan Changqing's posture, supported the railing with his hand, and turned his head to look at Yuan Changqing and said, "You are really, you only hide everything in your heart and refuse to tell anyone." If it weren't for me watching the movements of the past two days, I wouldn't have known that your old witch was actually calculating your marriage! ”

Yuan Changqing was still silent, and after a while, he suddenly turned his head and asked Lin Ruxuan: "What did you say to Thirteen Er just now?" ”

Lin Ruxuan was stunned.

After embroidering the screen, Shanniang was disturbed by the sound of "thirteen children", and then recalled the sound of "thirteen children" under the begonia flowers......

"Thirteen?" Lin Ruxuan almost subconsciously repeated Yuan Changqing's words, and then waved his hand, but he threw away the question, chased after Yuan Changqing and asked, "Do your grandfather and uncles know about this?" Marriage is a lifelong event, and you can't bear it alone! ”

Hearing Lin Ruxuan shouting "Thirteen", Shanniang's heart suddenly moved-she finally knew that Yuan Changqing's "Thirteen" was different from others.

Meishan Town is located in the south, that is, Lin Ruxuan has studied in the capital for many years, and he still has a southern accent that cannot be changed, so the "thirteen" he calls is only the two-word "thirteen". That Yuan Changqing is a native of Beijing, a standard northern official dialect, his "thirteen", followed by a rather winding ending, Shengsheng dragged the two-word "thirteen" into a three-word "thirteen......

Thirteen children......

There are many people who call her "thirteen" like a carp crossing the river, but because of the soft "er" sound affixed to the suffix, when you listen to it, it has an inexplicable intimacy in the ears......

I only heard that Yuan Changqing seemed to have not heard Lin Ruxuan's question, stubbornly insisted on his question, and said, "Do you think that Thirteen Er is also chasing me?" ”

Through the embroidered screen, Shanniang couldn't help but roll her eyes at Yuan Changqing - this person is always like this, the topic he wants to discuss is that no matter how you interrupt, he will definitely discuss with you unremittingly. And what he doesn't want to discuss is that you beat the gong and drum in his ear, and he can still pretend that he didn't hear anything!
