Chapter 32
"You damn girl, you're looking for a beating!"
How could the steward listen to Li Yuezhu's persuasive words? Instead of listening, he pushed her hard.
Lin Xinghuai got up from the ground, stood in front of Li Yuezhu, pulled out the hosta and gave it to the steward.
"Here, I bought this hosta for more than 50 taels of silver. Even if I take it to a pawn shop, I can still pawn it for 20 taels of silver."
The steward's eyes lit up when he saw the hairpin, and he reached out to take it, but was held down by Li Yuezhu.
"How much does this meal cost for you?" Li Yuezhu asked the steward: "You gave him this hairpin. When you pay for it in the future, he may not return it to you."
"No problem." Lin Xinghuai pressed Li Yuezhu's hand.
The steward with a greedy face saw the hairpin handed to him again and couldn't wait to reach for it.
"Wait a minute, how much money you owe them, I will pay it for you first, and you can pay me back someday."
Seeing that the duck he had got was about to fly away, the steward glared angrily: "You damn girl, do you have money? Look at the patches on your body. If you don't have money, you can't be a hero. How can you stay cool?
"
When the steward said this, Lin Xinghuai realized that this girl did not look like she was rich.
"Forget it, girl, I will mortgage this hosta here first. If he doesn't give it to me, I will report it to the official."
"How much did you eat for this meal?" Li Yuezhu ignored what the young master said.
"Um, one tael of silver."
"Eat so much." Li Yuezhu muttered in a low voice, took out the broken silver coins from his arms, and threw them directly at the steward: "Is this okay?"
After leaving the hotel, Lin Xinghuai followed Li Yuezhu and watched the girl wandering around the street. He hesitated for a long time before asking: "Girl, we don't know you either, so why did you save me?"
Li Yuezhu gnawed off the last hawthorn on the bamboo stick and saw that the man had been following her.
"It's because I can't stand those people who hit you," Li Yuezhu shook his head and continued: "When you see injustice on the road, you roar, and you take action when it's time to take action."
After she finished speaking, she burst out laughing. Lin Xinghuai looked at the girl who was laughing and laughing, and thought that this girl was very interesting.
"I'm Lin Xinghuai, what do you call this girl?"
"Me? My name is Li Yuezhu." Li Yuezhu answered simply.
After walking around on the street, Lin Xinghuai seemed to be very knowledgeable even though he was young. Li Yuezhu also made some insinuations about some things about the world.
The Bishu Kingdom should be the largest country in this continent. It is bordered by the sea to the east, the Chiyan Kingdom to the west, and the barbaric Turks to the north. The Turks are barbaric and have always wanted to occupy the Central Plains. This is the biggest enemy of the Bishu Kingdom.
They should be those Turks on horseback.
Sitting in a stall, Lin Xinghuai took a closer look at the little girl in front of him. She didn't look as stunning as he first saw her, but she had a pair of big, smart eyes that looked at her.
The clothes she wore were very shabby and she had spent so much money on them, which made Lin Xinghuai feel extremely guilty.
"Where does Miss Li live? I will definitely visit you in person in two days." After Lin Xinghuai finished speaking, he felt a little abrupt. He stood up and bowed to Li Yuezhu.
"You don't need to call me Miss Li, just call the girl in the village by her name. My home is in Lijia Village in the west of Ankang County." Li Yuezhu didn't think much about it and walked around outside. Li Yuezhu asked the store for a pot of tea. Although it wasn't
Good tea, Li Yuezhu drank it with gusto.
After drinking tea, Li Yuezhu took Lin Xinghuai to the clothing store.
The owner of a ready-made clothing shop was taking someone's measurements when he saw a noble man outside walking into the shop with a little girl in shabby clothes. He quickly greeted him with a smile on his face.
"What does this young master want to buy? Look at our house. We have everything, silk and satin, everything is complete, but I don't know what you want."
Li Yuezhu looked at the attentive shopkeeper from behind. He really relied on his clothes and his horse's saddle. It was just that he had a few extra patches on his body, so this person was so popular.
"I don't want to buy anything. This girl seems to need some." Lin Xinghuai immediately stepped aside, revealing Li Yuezhu standing behind, wearing a shabby Tsing Yi with patches all over.
The shopkeeper had never seen a nobleman from a certain family accompany a little girl from the village to the shop, which was strange. He didn't mind it, and turned around to ask Li Yuezhu again.
"If I want to wear men's clothing, I will buy it according to this gentleman's figure."
Li Yuezhu's main purpose today is to go to the jewelry shop to get the hairpin inlaid with pearls. His mother's birthday is coming soon. Unexpectedly, his brother also gave his mother a hairpin. Compared with the hairpin that his brother made by himself, the one Li Yuezhu bought
The hairpin is somewhat dishonest and cannot be given away.
Now the shopkeeper was even more surprised. It was always the noble master who bought clothes for the poor girl. How had he ever seen a poor girl buy clothes for the noble master?
"Yuezhu, are you sure?" Lin Xinghuai asked Li Yuezhu.
"Of course it's confirmed."
When his brother came home this time, Li Yuezhu saw that his clothes were already a bit shorter. He was only a teenager and not as tall as Lin Xinghuai, but he was growing taller now, and he should be able to grow taller in the past two years.
.
"Buy it for my brother, just this thin cyan color will do." Li Yuezhu pointed to the thin cyan fabric and said, "Are there any ready-made clothes in this color?"
Hearing what Li Yuezhu said, Lin Xinghuai breathed a sigh of relief. He just said, "We have just met each other for half a day, so why are we thinking about buying him clothes?"
When the old shopkeeper heard that the little girl really wanted to buy clothes, he immediately became active.
"Yes, yes, little girl, wait, I'll get it."
Seeing the shopkeeper walking away, Lin Xinghuai asked Li Yuezhu: "Why doesn't Yuezhu buy herself some clothes?"
Lin Xinghuai saw that Li Yuezhu's clothes had turned white after washing, and there were still a few patches on them. Since she was not short of money, why not buy some beautiful clothes that she could wear?
"Oh, I chose this for my brother. He is shorter than you. You can wear it after a while." Li Yuezhu answered the question incorrectly. It was not that she didn't want to buy it, but that she didn't know how to explain it to her family after buying it.
After a while, the shopkeeper took out a cotton gown from the room. This gown had a bookish feel to it. It looked like it was worn by literati. The thin blue dress was dotted with orchids. Seeing this dress, Li Yuezhu's eyes widened.
Liang, my brother must look great in this dress.
"What does this little girl think?"
Li Yuezhu nodded, "How much does this dress cost? I bought it."
The old shopkeeper smiled so hard that he didn't care who bought it, as long as he gave the money, he was the ancestor.
"Hey, hey, okay, I'll wrap it up for you."
"No need to wrap it up. I'm going to wear it now. You can wrap up the clothes I'm wearing."
Li Yuezhu said, took the cotton shirt from the boss's hand, walked to the dressing room, and changed out of her patched clothes.
Not only was the shopkeeper in the shop confused, but Lin Xinghuai, who followed Li Yuezhu in, was also confused.
Li Yuezhu walked out of the dressing room quickly. When she walked out, everyone standing in the store was frightened. Is this the same little girl who just walked in? She was obviously the noble gentleman who walked out of nowhere!
