Chapter 48: Bitengshan people will not go back on their word

Views:

Lu Xiaoshu patiently listened to him rambling and took him for a walk, then couldn't wait to smile and said: "I'll do it myself! I can do it myself!"

Lin Fang thought for a while and smiled: "Okay! Then you slow down! By the way, wait for me, I will follow you!" After finishing speaking, he handed over all the reins in his hand to her, and taught her how to hold them and how to control their strength. He turned onto another white horse, patted the horse's belly lightly with his legs, and drove the horse side by side with Lu Xiaoshu.

"Haha! It's been a long time—it's been a long time since I've had such fun!" Lu Xiaoshu rode a horse and slowly circled the field, looking at the blue sky and green mountains, the cool mountain breeze blowing from behind, the sky was high Cool, indescribably comfortable.

That sentence "It's been a long time since I rode a horse!" abruptly stopped halfway.

Lin Fang smiled and said, "If you like it, I will bring you here often in the future!"

"Okay!" Lu Xiaoshu tilted his head and smiled, and said again: "But, you must not tell my brother!"

Lin Xin felt a "thump" in his heart, and asked with a calm smile, "Oh? Why is that? Aren't the three of us always playing together?"

"Who knows what he's got wrong!" Lu Xiaoshu curled his lips and said, "Anyway, if he knows that I ran out, he will be angry and teach me a lesson!" He looked at Lin Fang anxiously and said, "Lin Fang, You can't betray me!"

Of course Lin Fang would not betray her. On the contrary, if she wanted him to betray her brother, he would probably agree after considering it.

Lin Xinxin understood it, but he was secretly angry before he knew it, and said good-bye to you, Lu Qi, you are so uninteresting! I asked you why Xiaoshu hadn't come out for a long time, and you still pretended to be naive with me. It turns out that it's all your fault! Oh yeah, because of those rumors, right? Hmph, you look down on me so much? What happened to the rumors? Wouldn't I be nice to Xiaoshu? We are still brothers, not only did you not help me, but you also held back...

"Hello? You won't—want to tell my brother!" Lu Xiaoshu became worried. She has always known that he has a good relationship with her brother.

"Ah? No, no, how could it be!" Lin Fang came back to his senses and shook his head hastily, and said with a smile, "I will definitely not tell him, or you will be scolded, I'm so sorry!"

Lu Xiaoshu smiled relaxedly, "That's good! Hey, let's go out for a stroll and go for a drive. It's so boring to just go around here!"

"But you—"

"I'll slow down, it's okay!"

"...Okay!" Lin Fang sighed lightly and nodded. Although he was a little worried, how could he bear to refuse her request and let her down! Alas, anyway, I was watching from the sidelines, so I expected nothing to happen.

Lu Xiaoshu giggled, and said cheerfully, "Then I'll take a step ahead, and you chase after me slowly, don't be too fast!" As he spoke, he pulled the rein, and swung the whip in his hand twice to hit the horse. The horse raised its neck and neighed, and rushed forward with a clatter of four hooves.

"Xiao Shu!" Lin Fang was startled, he was about to catch up with her just now, remembering what she said just now, and knew that she had always been a brave one, if she was chased by him and accelerated her speed, it would be even worse!

He had no choice but to endure his anxiety and slowly follow, shouting loudly: "Slow down! Xiao Shu, be careful!"

"I know!" Lu Xiaoshu giggled, and a voice like a silver bell came from behind the bend in front.

Lin Fang sighed and followed unhurriedly.

The two of them rode the horse for a long time in the mountains and forests. Lu Xiaoshu had enjoyed it, but it was a pity that he still didn't dare to speed up. Firstly, Lin Fangfang was yelling so she had to restrain himself, and secondly, the red horse was still young. Small, can't help running fast.

However, today's trip was already a pleasant surprise!

Since the unlucky time travel to become a baby, and then being abandoned by her biological parents for unknown reasons, she has learned to be satisfied and cherish. Just like today, although there is a fly in the ointment, it is already a big surprise to get rid of that little regret.

Both of them were tired, so they came to a lake surrounded by forests, let the horses graze and rest freely, and they sat on the grass by the lake.

"The scenery here is so beautiful! The lake is so green! It's like a painting!" Lu Xiaoshu relaxed comfortably, closed his eyes and took a deep breath of the air with the slightly drunk sunshine and fresh grass, with an intoxicated expression.

Lin Fang looked at her with a smile on his lips, and she opened her eyes suddenly, which caught him off guard.

Lin Fang was startled, "hehe" smiled sarcastically, turned his head aside and coughed and said, "If you like this place, can we come here often in the future?"

Lu Xiaoshu stared straight at him, seeing him bowing his head guiltily, and suddenly smiled, and said, "Let's forget it! This is your home after all, so what's the matter with me always running here!"

"It's okay, it's okay! I don't mind at all, really!" Lin Fang became anxious.

"But, I would mind!" Lu Xiaoshu tilted his head and blinked his eyes, and said solemnly: "Besides, it doesn't sound good to spread the word! Unless, you give me this Zhuangzi!"

Lin Fang opened his eyes wide in surprise, feeling a little stunned for a moment.

Lu Xiaoshu was secretly amused, and said, "Actually, I'm just kidding, you don't have to take it seriously!"

How could Lin Fang not be serious? Not only did he take it seriously, but he also felt very guilty, and said, "I'm sorry, Xiaoshu... Actually, it's nothing to give it to you, but this Zhuangzi is not mine! I, I don't seem to have any property..."

Lin Fang's expression became solemn, and he suddenly felt that this was really a problem. He was already thirteen years old, but besides the pocket money given by his family, he really had no other property! He doesn't have any of Zhuangzi, fields, forests, courtyards or other shops!

How can this work!

"Otherwise, I will take this Zhuangzi with my old man during the Chinese New Year, and then I will give it to you as a gift? Do you think it is good?" Lin Fang said seriously.

"Give it to me really? Are you willing? This Zhuangzi is probably worth a lot!" Lu Xiaoshu was surprised, she was just joking.

"Why don't you give up!" Lin Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed quickly: "Our family is not bad anyway, so it's settled!" As long as you like it, what is a mere Zhuangzi? Well, it's a pity that I can't make the decision. If I can, I have no problem with giving you the entire Lin Family Village. Uh, it's best if you become the mistress of the Lin Family Village... In that case, even I will be yours...

Thinking about it, Lin Fang couldn't help yearning.

"You are so generous!" Lu Xiaoshu felt slightly displeased for some reason.

Lin Fang heard the slight annoyance in her words, and looked over in surprise.

Lu Xiaoshu didn't bother to go around with him any more, and asked directly: "You are very strange today, why did you treat me so well all of a sudden? You were not like this before! Do you have anything to ask of me?"

"No, no!" Lin Fang was taken aback, his heart trembled twice.

After all, he had never experienced such a thing when he was young. When he was asked such a thing by the person he liked, the scare really frightened him terribly, and he was so flustered that he wanted to run away.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaoshu became more and more suspicious: "Are you still lying to me? With your appearance, you obviously have it!"

"I—" Lin Fang felt his mouth was parched, and he was so powerless to refute that he couldn't even speak.

Lu Xiaoshu didn't question him either, but snorted confidently, and said, "Isn't it just for your Lin family's Jinshizhai? Don't worry! Although the Bitengshan people are very famous now, but he is a talkative old man. A man who keeps his word, since he said to cooperate with your Lin family, he will definitely not find another family halfway! Recently, no new paintings have been handed over, um, it is because the old man has gone out for a while, and it will be a while later. Go back and tell your shopkeeper, so he can rest assured! Don’t be so careful!”

"You, you—oh..." Lin Fang was speechless, heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time couldn't help being secretly disappointed.

She didn't even mean that he liked her, but thought that he was doing it for the paintings of Jinshi Saibiteng Shanren...

Sigh, but that's good too, at least it saves him embarrassment, doesn't it

He unconsciously glanced at Lu Xiaoshu quietly, um, she's still young, it's normal that she doesn't understand. But it doesn't matter, as long as he understands, anyway, he will always be with her, protect her, and make her unable to leave.

"I didn't expect you to find out!" Lin Fang smiled coyly, and hurriedly said, "I can do business with you if you say so! So, if you like to come here in the future, feel free to come here, just treat it as our Lin family's Jinshizhai. What do you think of the reward of your middleman?"

Lu Xiaoshu's eyes lit up: It makes sense to say so!

"Yeah!" So, she nodded happily, her brows and eyes crooked with a smile.

"Then it's settled! I'll find you when I'm free!" Lin Fang was overjoyed, and smiled again: "Don't worry, I won't tell Lu Qi, this is our secret!"

Uh, that sounds weird, but it's true.

"Then it's a deal!" Lu Xiaoshu said with a grin.

Having had enough fun, Lin Fang sent Lu Xiaoshu home.

Lu Xiaoshu didn't let him go to the door, and got off the carriage by the river at the entrance of the village, and the two said goodbye.

Just after returning home, my old lady Miao Cuilan was coming back from harvesting kohlrabi in the vegetable field. Seeing her, she said, "You girl, why haven't you seen anyone all day, and where are you going crazy?"

Now Miao Cuilan no longer carries the burden of tofu to sell, and Jin'er no longer needs a nanny, but the nanny's family is poor, so she begged to stay and help.

Miao Cuilan waited to see that she was healthy and capable, and she was honest and responsible, so she stayed and took her away a few times, and it was basically the nanny who carried the burden and went out to sell.

"That's right, I just went to Yu'erzui, um, I went to see the mountain grapes there, mother, you can pick them!" Lu Xiaoshu said with a smile.

There is a large mountain farm of the Lu family in Yu'erzui, the main plant is bamboo, and there is also a large forest of ancient trees in the bamboo forest, about 40 to 50 mu. In this forest, Lu Zhong specially reserved a lot of mountains and fields Grapes grow, so they are picked every year to make wine for Mr. Wu.
