Chapter 8
This was the first time Zhang Laoer saw such a resolute and generous young girl. He looked at Li Yuezhu's elegant back and muttered to himself:
"The next generation is to be feared, the next generation is to be feared!"
It was already very late when Li Yuezhu returned to the store with Zhang Laoer. She hurriedly took the land deed, completed the formalities, and hurried to the grain and grass store.
I bought thirty kilograms of white rice and thirty kilograms of white flour. I also bought a barrel of oil and asked the waiter to help deliver it to Uncle Tiezhu. I also went to the pastry shop and bought some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and two bags of candies.
I bought two big hens and let my mother stew them to replenish her health.
Li Yuezhu looked at the stuff in her hands, and she felt happy in her heart. She was a small person, carrying two chickens in her left hand and several oil paper bags in her right hand. Xiao An would definitely be happy to see these sweet-scented osmanthus cakes.
Before she had time to grin, she heard the sound of horse hooves behind her. Li Yuezhu dodged to the side, but did not avoid the two-headed horse.
"call"
The neighing of horses could be heard in the whole street. The two chickens fluttered from the air and fell to the ground. The pastries they bought were also scattered on the ground. Li Yuezhu, who was lying on the ground, looked at the candies on the ground distressedly.
She stood up from the ground holding her waist. Before she could question the man on horseback and driving the car, the boy in blue clothes on the car started shouting.
"You little girl, don't you have eyes or ears? Didn't you see the carriage and hear the ringing of the bell? I started ringing the bell all the way away, and everyone else stepped aside, but you were still arrogant in the middle of the road.
Are you risking your life by walking?"
Li Yuezhu twisted her waist which was a little painful. She was really unlucky for eight lifetimes. She breathed heavily and looked at the arrogant little boy in blue.
"You still blame me, you hit me, okay! I don't blame you, it's just that I am kind. This is a downtown area of the county. You are riding a horse on a rampage, why do you still blame the person who was hit?"
"Our Kingdom of Bishu clearly stipulates that common people should avoid the palace horses and the two-headed horses of princes and nobles. Why are other people staying away from them, but you are standing in the middle of the road."
"What kind of rule is this? It's obvious that you didn't take care of the horse yourself. The control is in your hands, but you still blame the innocent civilians!"
"You woman are simply being unreasonable!"
"Who is making trouble unreasonably? The road is not yours. I can walk if you go. When you see someone in front of you, you don't rein in your horse in time. After knocking the person down, you try to avoid it without even a word of apology. It's really not a gentleman's behavior.
"
"you……"
The young man in blue robe wanted to argue further when he heard a cough in the car.
"Ahem, cough, cough, Xuan Yue, you still haven't apologized to this girl."
Through the curtain of the carriage, Li Yuezhu heard the extremely hoarse voice and the uncontrollable cough. It seemed that the owner of the voice was suffering from illness.
"Sir, this little girl is clearly arrogant, she..."
When the young boy named Xuan Yue heard what was going on inside, he bowed respectfully, and then wanted to refute.
"Ahem, that's it." The young master's voice showed deep fatigue: "Xuan Yue, you did something wrong in this matter, why don't you apologize quickly."
The young man in blue named Xuan Yue heard the noise in the car and was stunned. He glanced at Li Yuezhu who was still rubbing his waist and said impatiently: "I'm sorry."
Li Yuezhu obviously heard the noise in the car. This boy did not apologize sincerely at all.
She also glanced at the young man in blue from the corner of her eye. The collision was quite serious. Looking at the hen that was still flapping on the ground, Li Yuezhu put her hands on her hips and raised her head and said to the young man.
"Now that you have apologized, although your intention is not sincere, fortunately, my lord is generous, so I understand your apology. But you have to compensate me for the cakes on the floor. You must know that these cakes cost me three taels of silver.
"
When the young man named Xuan Yue heard what Li Yuezhu said, he immediately stopped working. What does it mean to not get what you want? What does it mean to be a big man? It was obvious that she had done something wrong, but she still asked him to pay for it. This little girl was so stupid.
The nose is on the face.
"Hey, you little girl, why do you have to push yourself so hard?"
"I can't push myself too far. These three taels of silver are nothing to a young master from a rich family like you, but you know that these three taels of silver are the food expenses for our family for three months!"
There was a circle of people around. They had never seen anyone dare to provoke the royal nobles like this. On the one hand, they hoped that the young master in the carriage could teach this little girl a lesson, and they also hoped that this little girl could help them, the common people.
Come back with a plan.
The atmosphere had eased a bit because of Xuan Yue's apology, but now it started to become tense again.
"You damn girl, you are so ungrateful. If you weren't standing in the middle of the road, how could I have bumped into you?"
"Who is it? If you weren't trying to stir up trouble in the market, how could you hit me?"
Li Yuezhu's eyebrows almost stood up when she saw the little boy in blue. She put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest, showing no sign of weakness.
"you……"
Xuan Yue was speechless by Li Yuezhu. The people they usually came into contact with were dignitaries. When had they ever seen such a brazen and domineering girl?
The people Xuan Yue met were not only respectful and courteous to him, but they were at least knowledgeable and reasonable people.
Looking at the girl under the horse who was unreasonably fighting for three points: "The ancients honestly deceived me, it is really difficult to raise a woman and a villain!"
"You still dare to accuse me. Judging from the way you are dressed, you should be a well-educated and polite person, but to be so mean and embarrass a little girl like me is such an unfaithful and unkind person."
"You are the one who is disloyal, unkind and unjust. You stinky girl, how dare you give me such a big label."
"Isn't it true? As a domestic slave, if you bully a weak woman on the street at will and do it so confidently, you are destroying your master's reputation. This is disloyal."
"I, a little girl, was knocked to the ground. You didn't even ask me if I was injured, but directly accused me. This is unkind."
"Since your master asked you to set up the carriage, he has placed his trust in you. But not only did you fail to set up the carriage, but you also went out of your way to bump into other girls. You are doing your master an injustice."
"Well, you're a sharp-tongued stinky girl. I..."
"What are you, I haven't said you are unfilial!"
"If you dare to say another word, try it and see if I don't tear your mouth apart!"
"Xuan Yue, did what I said not work?"
"Young master, you heard it too. This girl is clearly using her words to make excuses."
Xuan Yue turned around and bowed respectfully into the carriage.
A corner of the blue carriage trimmed with gold was lifted, and from Li Yuezhu's perspective, he could only see the slender fingers as white as jade and the neatly manicured nails.
"This girl is absolutely right, Xuan Yue, you are trying to trap me into being unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust, cough cough cough, cough cough cough."
"Master, how are you doing, Master? Stop talking, I just want to apologize to this stinky girl."
Li Yuezhu stood there, she was very curious about who the young master in the carriage was, who actually agreed with her nonsense.
The boy turned around and glared at Li Yuezhu fiercely. He took out five taels of silver from his arms and said, "Girl, I'm sorry. I, Xuan Yue, have offended me this time. Please forgive me."
Xuan Yue was much more polite this time. He no longer stood atop the tall horse and criticized Li Yuezhu condescendingly, but got off the car and bowed respectfully to Li Yuezhu.
After saying these words, he picked up the riding crop, whipped it hard, and walked away.
Li Yuezhu picked up the silver from the ground, raised his head and glanced at the blue, gold-rimmed double-headed carriage, "Humph, it makes sense."
