Chapter 43: Xianyi Ran Away
People who are a little familiar with Aunt Zhang's family are difficult to understand, with the appearance of Aunt Zhang's two children, how did they raise a pair of children like Zhang Cailing and Zhang Wensheng, and therefore the mean and bitter people will inevitably talk about this and deliberately slander Aunt Zhang, but Aunt Zhang's family doesn't care much about it, that is, Aunt Zhang herself, as long as she doesn't say it in front of her, she won't pay attention to it, let alone be angry about it.
Of course, there are really uninteresting people who dare to tell Aunt Zhang in person, that Aunt Zhang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the person who talks about it will inevitably be scolded to the point of blood.
There are many voices of praise and envy, there will be many inferior slander and rumors, although there are many unfriendly voices to Aunt Zhang and Zhang Cailing, but they do not affect the Zhang family's proposal, and the matchmaker is about to step on the threshold of the Zhang family's courtyard.
At Zhang Cailing's age, it is not too early to get married, but she has never set a satisfactory family affair, her daughter is a beautiful woman like a flower, and Aunt Zhang is naturally picky.
At one time, Liu Lu, who couldn't hide his dirty heart, turned eighteen corners and knocked sideways to Aunt Zhang's side to inquire about Aunt Zhang's choice of son-in-law, Aunt Zhang seemed to be quite interested in this topic at that time, and said a lot, which roughly means that if you want to marry her daughter, you must be a scholar, not requiring a good family background, but at least you can have enough food and clothing, and you don't want to be a famous person, and finally Aunt Zhang didn't forget to emphasize that it was best to be handsome, so that she could be talented and beautiful with his daughter.
Liu Luxin, who heard this at that time, was pulling out the cold, and the conditions that Aunt Zhang said could be said to be perfect for him to avoid.
And at that time, in addition to these words, the outspoken Aunt Zhang directly came to Liu Lu with a sword, Aunt Zhang told Liu Lu that he was an honest and good guy, no bad intentions, and not many eyes, unlike some young people around him, who harassed her daughter in a different way, and asked Liu Lu to be diligent, don't stay at home every day when you are young, make more money to please a daughter-in-law, Liu Lu can only smile embarrassedly and accompany Aunt Zhang to finish.
After that, Liu Lu, who felt that it was difficult to eat swan meat, had some thoughts of preparing to approach Zhang Cailing.
Everything is not perfect, and not every neighbor is as easy to get along with as Aunt Zhang's house, Aunt Zhang's house is a close neighbor separated by a wall in Liu Lu's yard, in the diagonal opposite door of Liu Lu's yard, twenty or thirty steps away, there is another family that is not very harmonious with him, the owner of this house is a butcher surnamed Zhou, who kills pigs and dogs, and is quite irritable and arrogant.
Liu Lu doesn't like such people very much, and always feels like being bullied when dealing with them, so he rarely intersects with them.
For the hostess of the Zhou family, I don't know if it is Liu Lu's misunderstanding, I always feel that she is a little selfish and too heavy, and the other party rarely deals with him, a newly moved poor neighbor, and the familiarity of the two parties is only a friendship that meets outside the door, and it depends on the mood to say hello.
In addition to these two people, the Zhou family also has an only son, a young man as old as Liu Lu, named Zhou Nan.
Zhou Nan is not tall, but he is not short, not as strong and fierce as his father, but he inherited his mother's shrewdness, his own appearance is very ordinary, but his facial features are relatively flat, his eyes are slightly smaller, and the whites of his eyes look more, so his face always gives people an awkward expression that seems to be smiling but not smiling.
Zhou Nan is not a piece of reading material, nor did he inherit his father's ability, what he does always gives people a feeling of slowness, but he likes to dance with knives and guns, but he is not a serious martial arts practitioner, usually with some "like-minded" people get together, walk the streets and alleys, do some coaxing and blackmail, and molesting good families.
A person like Zhou Nan, in the words of Aunt Zhang, who is extremely disgusted with him, is a pimple, dreaming all day long, but he doesn't have that life.
Outside the neighborhood, the reason why Aunt Zhang is so disgusted with Zhou Nan is purely because Zhou Nan covets Zhang Cailing's beauty and harasses Zhang Cailing every day.
And this is one of the reasons why Liu Lu doesn't like Zhou Nan.
Liu Lu's greater prejudice against Zhou Nan is half because he doesn't like this person's appearance, and the other half is because he doesn't like this person's snobbery.
Liu Lu also admits that he is a prejudiced person, and he will never be contaminated with people and things he doesn't like.
The two are not all the way at all, Liu Lu's indifference Zhou Nan can naturally feel it, and Liu Lu himself does not have the conditions for Zhou Nan to have contact, so the two basically don't care about anyone.
The life of coming to Star City is still very leisurely.
Liu Lu spent the first cold winter after coming to Star City very leisurely.
The so-called static and moving! The rats have been nesting for a winter, and they are all a little unable to hold back.
In the early spring, the weather was sunny and breezy, and Liu Lu decided to go on a long trip to explore the secluded.
On the night when Liu Lu cleaned up a little and was about to leave the next day, he was awakened by a scream in his sleep in the middle of the night.
Liu Lu lives alone, so there will be his sword at the head of the bed, and he usually sleeps very lightly at night, and a little louder movement can basically wake him up.
So when I woke up when I heard the voice, I instantly held the spirit snake sword at the head of the bed, and found that a faint white shadow in the room flashed away.
Liu Lu was stunned, the white shadow was a little familiar, he looked at his left wrist, and sure enough, there was nothing empty, and he understood that it was Xianyi.
After knowing that it was Xianyi, Liu Lu did not rush to get up, but half-sat on the wooden bed and was a little stunned, not understanding what kind of madness Xianyi had at night when he had been so quiet that he was about to be ignored in the past few months.
But soon Liu Lu was shocked, thinking that Xian Yi would not have stolen his two things and ran away, and then glanced at the cabinet on the other side of the house, and sure enough, he saw that the cabinet door was ajar.
Liu Lu hurriedly jumped out of bed, didn't even bother to put on the shoes next to the bed, walked to the cabinet with the wooden box, and opened the cabinet with the anger in his heart, but the result in front of him made him a little dumbfounded, and the anger against Xianyi in his stomach was also extinguished.
As far as the eye can see, unexpectedly, the wooden box is well placed in the cabinet, and it is a little strange that the lid of the wooden box is opened, but the wooden statue and wooden plaque placed inside, and even the three stones, are no less.
Liu Lu picked up the things in the wooden box with some suspicion and checked them one by one, and there was indeed nothing abnormal, so far, Liu Lu only thought that there was something wrong with Xianyi.
After putting the wooden box and closing the door of the cabinet again, Liu Lu went back to the bed and lay down again, in the middle of the night, although the weather has been a little warmer, but there is still a little chill at night, he doesn't want to run out to find Xianyi, let alone have that mind.
As long as he didn't take his things and didn't provoke him, Liu Lu didn't bother to pay attention to Xianyi's behavior at all.
Being made so much trouble by Xianyi at night, Liu Lu slept very unsteadily in the second half of the night, and when he woke up in the morning, he was stunned for a long time, and he didn't feel refreshed until he played a swordsmanship.
Although Liu Lu didn't care about Xianyi's disappearance, he was a little uneasy about leaving, such a hidden danger, in the case of not being completely solved, the best way was to put it under his own eyelids, so Liu Lu temporarily canceled his plan to go out, and continued to nest at home, waiting for when Xianyi would come back.
And this is three days.
Three days later, after Xianyi came back, Liu Lu was full of complaints about Xianyi's style, feeling that this old tree spirit could come when he wanted to, and he could leave when he wanted to, so he didn't take him seriously.
After that, Liu Lu didn't continue to wait, he didn't bother to pay attention to Xianyi's affairs, so he went out as planned, for his meaningful wooden box, after thinking about it, he still didn't bring it with him after thinking about it again.
He wasn't afraid of the thief's coming, that thing was not worth a lot of money in the eyes of ordinary people, he was mainly worried about Xianyi, afraid that Xianyi would suddenly appear and steal it after he left.
But then Liu Lu felt that his worries were a little redundant, if Xian Yi had this idea, there would be too many opportunities during this time, although he didn't understand what the reason for Xian Yi's sudden disappearance, but definitely, absolutely, not for stealing things after he left.
