Chapter 12: The Little Girl Makes a Promise!
"Li Jingmoβ" Ye Chaoyan exclaimed.
Li Jingmo was a roundhouse kick, Wang Mazi's body fell straight and fell a few meters away, and fell to the ground with a poof!
Ye Chaoyan was stunned for a moment, completely ignoring how Li Jingmo had long eyes behind his back and kicked Wang Mazi so accurately.
When the thugs saw that the boss was beaten, they hurriedly surrounded him, shouting: "Boss! Boss! β
Wang Mazi slowed down on the ground for a while before scolding weakly, "MD, hurry up and help your master up!" β
The thugs picked up Wang Mazi with all hands and feet.
Wang Mazi stared at the young scholar in front of him, knowing that he was no enemy, and said hatefully: "If you don't pay off your debts, and you still beat people, I will go to the government to sue you!" β
When Li Jingmo heard this, he approached Wang Mazi step by step.
Wang Mazi and the thugs shrank their necks in a daze, and their faces were full of fear.
People can't look good, this scholar just made a few moves, and ordinary people can't practice them in a few years.
Wang Mazi was about to beckon people to flee, but he heard the scholar ask lightly: "How much does the pharmacy owe you?" β
"Six, six hundred and twenty taels!" Wang Mazi said.
Li Jingmo took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, counted out six hundred and twenty taels, and handed them over, his voice was indifferent and contemptuous, "Take it, don't come to harass Miss Ye again, otherwise, I will beat you once I see you!" β
Wang Mazi was stunned for a moment, wondering that this scholar's clothes were all patched, how could he take out a huge sum of six hundred taels?
He checked the silver tickets one by one, and it was true!
Seeing that it was good, Wang Mazi immediately waved his hand and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze?" Carry the master away! β
In the blink of an eye, they were gone, and quiet was restored in the courtyard.
Everyone came back to their senses from a huge stunned stup.
Ye Chaoyan walked up to Li Jingmo and glared at him, "Why do you have so much silver?" β
Xiao Liu stepped forward to help the shopkeeper and his wife up, and when he saw that the shopkeeper and his wife were confused, he whispered: "The shopkeeper, madam, this gentleman is the scholar who saved the girl in Xiaolianzi Village." β
Ye Qiyang's eye sockets were deep, and he looked Li Jingmo up and down again, and there was admiration in his eyes.
is really a talent, and a chivalrous heart, which is rare.
Li Jingmo was about to explain to Ye Chaoyan where the money came from, Ye Qiyang walked over tremblingly, and said to Li Jingmo, "Mr. is great kindness, I can't repay it, I am willing to let the little girl make a promise!" β
Ye Chaoyan didn't expect her father to suddenly say such a thing, her eyelids jumped, the lesson of the previous life was still yesterday, and her head shook like a rattle, "No, no, no!" β
Li Jingmo's mouth opened and closed it again, his eyes were a little lost, and Qi Qi looked at Ye Chaoyan.
She refused so neatly, and her demeanor seemed to avoid marrying him like a scorpion.
He didn't have a gap in his heart, and even felt a little uncomfortable, but he calmly returned the salute to Ye Qiyang, "The old gentleman is serious, and his later life is just a matter of helping when he sees injustice." β
Ye Qiyang said: "You paid us so much silver, we can't afford to pay you back now, if you are too little, our old couple will also marry in the past!" β
He is now worried that his daughter has nowhere to entrust, and he has killed such a handsome and righteous scholar halfway, he must not hurry!
Li Jingmo was stunned for a moment, and quickly explained: "Actually, ......"
Ye Qiyang waved his hand to interrupt him, and when he met a happy event, his spirits were much better, "Actually, what?" It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, and the two of you will visit the church tonight! β
Xiao Liu also spoke up, "The girl is beautiful, and Li Gongzi is handsome, it's just a match made in heaven for talented and beautiful women!" β
Mrs. Ye also said: "Li Gongzi saved the little girl, this is the fate of God!" β
Ye Chao's face was bigger.
Li Jingmo is good-looking, she knows better than anyone else, what he did today is righteous and handsome, and if he were another woman, I am afraid that he would have taken the initiative to promise him.
But! Ye Chaoyan will no longer be confused by him, she knows what his nature is, he also wants to gain fame and career in this life, and when he climbs high, he will come out with bad water in his stomach, and she will be unlucky.
The phoenix seeks the phoenix, the phoenix seeks the phoenix...... How did Ah Niu say it? It doesn't matter, anyway, she has to be sober, and she can't choose a son-in-law by sex anymore!
She gathered her strength and said loudly: "Dad, mother! Li Gongzi and I are just friends, and we have become brothers and sisters with different surnames in the village! Besides, I'm only thirteen years old, and I don't want to get married yet! β
The light in the eyes of Ye Qiyang and Xiao Liu disappeared in an instant.
What a good couple, how did they become brother and sister?
Is the idea of the brother and sister the meaning of Li Gongzi or the meaning of the daughter?
It must be Li Gongzi, the status of Shinong Industry and Commerce has always been the lowest, Li Gongzi has an extraordinary temperament, and he is not a long-term subordinate, I am afraid that he will not look down on their small pharmacy.
Li Jingmo's eyelashes drooped, hiding his loss, and echoed: "Exactly, I treat Miss Ye as a sister in my later life, and there is no ...... The idea of transgression. β
Ye Chaoyan nodded with satisfaction, grabbed Li Jingmo's arm, and called sweetly, "Brother~"
Li Jingmo: "...... Younger sister. β
Ye Qiyang thought that the brother and sister were also successful, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, today is really happy!" Little Liu, you go to the opposite Koufuju to buy a few snacks and dishes to celebrate the girl's recognition of her brother-in-law! β
Mrs. Ye asked, "Do we still have the money to buy wine and food?" β
Ye Chaoyan hurriedly took out an ingot, "Yes, mother, my father gave me fifty taels." β
Mrs. Ye was instantly angry, "You actually hid so much private money?!" β
Ye Qiyang's face was embarrassed, "Madam, can't all the eggs be put in one basket, if I don't hide a little, won't we have a penny now?" β
Mrs. Ye thought about it, but she asked with a straight face: "Is it only fifty taels?" β
Ye Qiyang: Didn't you just say that you hid so much?
He nodded solemnly, plus a tactical cough.
Mrs. Ye sighed in disappointment, "Why don't you hide more, if you hide one or two hundred taels, won't our shop be able to reopen?" β
Ye Qiyang listened, and said slowly, "I still have fifty taels ......."
Mrs. Ye: "You old man still have it?!" What are you going to do hiding so much money?! Where are they hidden? Hand it over! β
Mrs. Ye suddenly had strength, and as if her illness had recovered for the most part, she grabbed the old man's ears and entered the house, asking him to come from the truth.
"Madam, there really isn't."
"This is the money I have hidden all my life, and I am going to give Yan'er as a dowry."
"Madame, ouch, my ears ......"
Xiao Liu has already gone to buy snacks and food.
There were only Li Jingmo and Ye Chaoyan left in the courtyard.
Feeling that Li Jingmo was staring at him, Ye Chaoyan lowered his eyes, looking at his nose and his heart.
I just rejected a handsome man who saved himself and repaid more than 600 taels for his family, and he was a little ignorant.
She explained in a comic way: "Li ...... Brother, I know that you are going to take the township exam, and when you are in high school, you will be an official, you should marry a lady from a scholarly family, I am not a good match. β
Li Jingmo nodded.
He could feel it from the beginning when he saw Ye Chaoyan, her attitude towards him was strange, and he would be dissatisfied with it for some reason, and even a little ...... The taste of hate.
He hadn't had any in-depth contact with the woman, and he couldn't figure out what she was all about.
Since she doesn't want to, let's treat it as a brother and sister.
It's just that Li Jingmo didn't want to talk to her about finding a scholarly lady, and said lightly: "I'll go and see if the rice is cooked." β
He turned and went into the kitchen.
Ye Chaoyan stood in the courtyard and broke his fingers for a while, and heard the sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen.
She walked in and said, "Don't get it, Xiaoliu went to buy some snacks, you can rest for a while." β
Li Jingmo just didn't know what to do, and when she said this, he put down the kitchen knife and put the cut vegetables in a bamboo basket to dry.
Ye Chaoyan picked up the fan to help him fan the wind, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you get the huge money?" β
When Li Jingmo heard this, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve pocket, "I'm here for this." That humanoid He Shou Wu is too valuable, I don't think I need to use it so good for my second brother, so I sold it as the master. β
"After selling for a thousand taels, I bought some dried He Shou Wu and other medicines for my second brother, and spent one hundred and twenty taels, and the rest will be given to you."
Ye Chaoyan didn't take the silver ticket, "What are you doing for me?" β
Li Jingmo couldn't help but say that he stuffed the silver ticket to her, "He Shouwu was discovered by you, naturally it's yours, the one hundred and twenty taels I used, I should borrow you, and I will pay you back in the future." β
Ye Chaoyan was a little stunned, Li Jingmo in this life was too sincere.
She stuffed the silver ticket into him again, "No, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to dig it up, and I wouldn't be able to sell it for so much money, this money has to be half of us, I have already used more than six hundred taels, these are all yours." β
"It's useless for me to keep so much money on me, it's time to use the money when something happens to your family, you can take it."
"No, the payment has already been repaid, and I will figure out the rest myself."
"If you want to take it, you will take it!"
The two of them pushed back and forth, Ye Chaoyan couldn't resist Li Jingmo like this, so he simply took the silver ticket.
There are still two hundred and sixty taels, and she stuffed sixty taels of silver tickets into him, "You take these sixty taels, and you will not be afraid of running out of food in the future, and you can study and prepare for the exam with peace of mind." β
Li Jingmo didn't refuse, "Then I'll take it." β
After a while, Xiao Liu bought the wine and food, and the medicine in the kitchen was boiled.
Ye Chaoyan first let Ye Qiyang drink the medicine, and then boiled his mother's medicine before taking a seat.
The pharmacy that was supposed to be poured and the family that was going to be dispersed sat together again, Ye Chaoyan also had an extra brother-in-law, and Ye Qiyang and his wife were very happy.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was relaxed and cheerful.
Ye Qiyang was sick and couldn't drink, so he replaced wine with tea, and Xiaoliu accompanied Li Jingmo to drink a few glasses.
Li Jingmo hadn't drunk for a long time, looking at the people in front of him and the dishes on the table, he felt that there were fireworks in the world, but that's it.
Halfway through the meal, Mrs. Ye pulled Ye Chaoyan and quietly retreated from the table.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Mrs. Ye smiled all over her face, "It's so late, Li Gongzi designated that he can't go back to the village tonight, so let's make the bed in the guest room and let him stay overnight." β
Ye Chaoyan was afraid that her mother would be tired and wanted to take the initiative to take over the job, but Mrs. Ye glanced at her lovingly:
"Most of my mother's illness is heart disease, but now it's much better, why don't you need to work, go and accompany Li Gongzi."
Ye Chaoyan felt that his father and mother still wanted to rub her and Li Jingmo on the side of husband and wife.
Hey, forget it, she can't control the thoughts of the old couple, she just grasps it herself.
After a while, Li Jingmo and Xiaoliu were drunk at the wine table, and Ye Qiyang kicked Xiaoliu twice, "Go back to the front shop and sleep!" β
Ye Chaoyan took Li Jingmo to the guest room.
