The heart was beating violently, blood flowed through the limbs and bones, and rushed to the head in an instant.
With a bang, it seemed that countless fireworks exploded in his mind.
Yu Yuan's eyes darkened, and he stood there dumbfounded.
"Yu Yuan?" Yan Mu stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Yu Yuan, "What's wrong with you?"
"...It's okay." Yu Yuan's face turned pale, and he pursed his lips.
He knew that Yan Mu was unintentional.
He also knew that he was not a lucky star at all.
Apart from his humble life experience, no matter where he went from childhood to adulthood, he would bring disasters wherever he went.
For example, when he was born, the house caught fire, and he and his mother were almost burned to death.
For another example, after he was sent to Zhang Orihu's home, Zhang Oriu's wife, his aunt, died of a serious illness within only one month.
Even he himself felt that he was an ominous person.
Why can Yan Mu be so cheerful and lively to say that he is a lucky star
Yu Yuan gritted his teeth, and the sadness spread in his heart.
However, in the sour and bitter taste, there is also a slight sweetness mixed in.
The five flavors are mixed together, rushing and choking, and the tails of Yu Yuan's eyes turn red from the smoke.
"Yan Mu." Yu Yuan restrained his emotions and tried to put on a calm look: "Did someone say anything to you?"
"What did you say?" Yan Mu was still picking out the bedding, not paying attention to Yu Yuan's words.
"...It's nothing." Yu Yuan thought over and over again, but swallowed the question.
He suspected that someone had said something in front of Yan Mu, with the purpose of provoking the relationship between him and Yan Mu.
But it doesn't matter, he and Yan Mu are together almost all day long.
He will not give that person any chance to provoke.
Yu Yuan buried all his emotions in his heart, and stood silently behind Yan Mu like an old tree.
"Yu Yuan, which of these sets do you like?" Yan Mu picked out another set of bedding.
"They all look good." Yu Yuan said lightly.
At a glance, the quilts are all blue and gray.
Yu Yuan thought of Yan Mu's pink quilt with flowers, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
"Be serious." Yan Mu became unhappy, "This is something I bought for you, of course you have to like it."
"Why are you giving me something all of a sudden?" Yu Yuan was puzzled.
"Because you are a lucky star." Yan Mu said with a smile.
"...except this?" Yu Yuan turned his head away.
Well…
The real reason is that Yan Mu felt guilty for secretly kissing Yu Yuan and wanted to make it up to him.
But Yu Yuan is a person with very low material desires, Yan Mu thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what Yu Yuan likes.
She originally wanted to buy a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, but when she thought about it, Yu Yuan was living with her now, so she used everything evenly, and there was not much shortage. And with this little money, you can't buy a good four treasures of the study.
Later, she remembered Yu Yuan's distorted expression when he slept on the pink quilt for the first time, and thought of buying a new quilt for Yu Yuan.
Although Yu Yuan will become a powerful minister in the future, he is still a sixteen-year-old boy after all.
Like most other boys, he doesn't like too girly colors.
Yan Mu couldn't help but smile, and didn't pick up Yu Yuan's words.
"I think that set is also good." Yan Mu maliciously pointed to a set of pink quilts.
The color of the quilt is very girly, and there are a few stars printed on the pink cloth.
Objectively speaking, it is a very beautiful set of quilts, but it is definitely not loved by most adolescents.
Sure enough, Yan Mu saw Yu Yuan's body froze, and he lowered his head like a wilted seedling.
"... There are quilts of this color at home." Yu Yuan said in a muffled voice.
"You don't like pink?" Yan Mu asked in feigned surprise.
Yu Yuan lowered his head and did not speak. After a long time, he choked out a sentence: "...No."
"Then you choose a set yourself, if you don't choose, I'll buy a pink set for you." Yan Mu said with a smile.
Yu Yuan raised his head and looked at Yan Mu.
Those eyes are extremely black, like rain flower stones soaked in water, beautiful and captivating.
Yan Mu could see the grievance in those eyes for no reason.
When she wanted to take a closer look, Yu Yuan had already turned her head to pick out the quilt.
Yu Yuan picked things very quickly, and picked out a set of gray quilts in no time.
Yan Mu happily paid the money, and when she was about to take another look, she was pulled out of the shop by Yu Yuan.
"Hey, I'm going to take another look!" Yan Mu was dissatisfied.
"...Come again next time." Yu Yuan was afraid that Yan Mu would buy back the pink quilt, so he dragged Yan Mu away quickly.
Yu Yuan pulled her around.
The two walked around the old willow tree, crossed the small Banqiao, walked around the lush crabapple flowers, and finally stopped in front of a pawn shop.
"...I want to see my mother's belongings." Yu Yuan said hoarsely.
"Okay." Yan Mu was stunned for a moment, then sighed lightly.
Yu Yuan's mother only had one name in the outline, Su Niang.
She didn't specifically write about Su Niang's setting, so everything about Su Niang in this time and space is derived from the world itself.
Yan Mu accompanied Yu Yuan into the pawnshop, and as soon as he entered, he saw many items hanging on the wall behind the fence.
Among them, there is a string of jade beads that is extremely transparent, and it looks good at first glance.
"How much is that string of jade beads?" Yu Yuan asked.
"That?" The clerk looked at Yu Yuan's clothes, turned around to do his own thing, and said after a long time: "Fifty taels."
"Fifty taels?" Yan Mu was startled.
Two taels of silver are enough for a family of three to live for a year, and fifty taels is really a sky-high price.
"That's right, this is something for customers, so it's expensive to buy." The clerk asked impatiently, "Do you want to buy it?"
Yan Mu glared at the clerk, and angrily pulled Yu Yuan out the door.
"Is that piece of jade your mother's relic?" Yan Mu asked.
She seemed to understand why Zhang Liehu's family wanted to lie to Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan nodded silently, obviously he was also hit by the sky-high price.
Yan Mu thought for a while, took out the remaining money on his body, and said: "This is the money left over from buying chickens, you can use it to buy some salt."
Yu Yuan took the copper plate, raised his eyes and asked, "What about you?"
"I'll go take a look at the women's clothes." Yan Mu took out the remarks he had prepared earlier in the morning.
"I'll go with you." Yu Yuan worried about Yan Mu.
"Are you sure?" Yan Mu raised her eyebrows, "What I want to buy is a close-fitting... women's dress."
"Comfortable..."
Yu Yuan didn't react for a while, he was stunned for a while, and when he came back to his senses, that pale handsome face suddenly turned red like a tomato.
"I, I'll wait for you at the entrance of the village."
The young boy's face was so hot that he could fry an egg, he picked up the quilt, blocked Yan Mu's playful sight, and left like a wooden man with arms and legs.
It wasn't until Yu Yuan's figure completely disappeared that Yan Mu turned and walked towards the alley.
She came to a teahouse and slapped out a stack of manuscripts.
"Call your boss here." She said to the waiter in the shop, "I have something nice to show him, if he doesn't want me, I'll go to another place."
The author has something to say:
So, quilts count as... prostitution/investment? ?
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Yu Yuan: Strong men don't know how to use pink bedding! ... Unless it was Yan Mu who slept with her.
