Chapter 93

Li Yuezhu got up early the next morning. Today she was wearing a rose-red feather gauze skirt, with a hairpin given by her brother on her hair. Not to mention how cute she was.

My brother went to the academy after dinner early in the morning. Xiao An didn't stay in bed anymore. She started practicing Chinese calligraphy when she got up in the morning. Li Yuezhu's handwriting looked better than hers. This really made her want to cry.

After eating, Li Yuezhu fished out a watermelon from the well. The watermelon had been soaked in the well all night and was now cold.

I found a net bag and took the watermelon to Chen Jiuying's house for a visit.

According to the address Xiaojiu told her before, Li Yuezhu arrived at her home within ten minutes of walking out. Looking at the high-gate courtyard, there were two majestic lions placed at the door, not to mention how majestic it was.

Carrying the net bag, Li Yuezhu was stopped by the doorman just as he wanted to go in.

"Who are you here for? Do you have a greeting card?"

There must be at least a dozen people visiting the Chen family every day. How can the master and his wife have so much free time to receive all these people?

"Better greetings? No!"

"If you don't, why don't you dare to come to Chen Mansion and take a walk."

Li Yuezhu never expected that when she came to Chen Jiuying's house for the first time, she would be kicked away.

"I'm here to see your young lady Chen Jiuying. I want to tell her that Li Yuezhu is here to see her. She will definitely meet me. Please let me know."

Now the doorman was surprised. With the temper of their young lady, it was a miracle that someone came to see her. She was still a girl. He looked at Li Yuezhu up and down. It really didn't look like he was here to see the master or his wife.

Then he opened his mouth and said:

"Then you wait here and I'll go in and pass the message."

Li Yuezhu watched the boy run away and then breathed a sigh of relief. Even a large household like this needs to be greeted before entering.

After a while, the boy ran back like a gust of wind, not because he was so eager, but because there was a dominatrix behind him.

"Zhu'er, Zhu'er."

Li Yuezhu heard her calling before he even saw her. It was really Chen Jiuying's temperament.

Chen Jiuying held up her skirt and strode to the door. When she saw Li Yuezhu standing pretty at the door, she was naturally happy.

"Zhu'er, you damn girl, you've finally come back, and you've made me miserable."

Chen Jiuying told the truth. She was trapped at home all day long, looking forward to the stars and the moon, but she did not look forward to the return of Li Yuezhu.

"Come in quickly, I brought you delicious food, you must like it."

Li Yuezhu raised his hand and raised the net bag in his hand. When Chen Jiuying saw that there was a green melon inside, it was something new that she had never seen before. She quickly took the net bag and pulled Li Yuezhu into the yard.

"Oh, this thing of yours is really heavy. It weighs eight or nine kilograms. How did you lift it here?"

"Of course I brought it with my hand, could it be that I brought it with my feet?" Li Yuezhu started joking when he saw his good friend.

"You don't know, ever since my father found out that I was almost kidnapped, he has kept me at home all day long, not even letting me go out. I went to your house a few days ago, and I was accompanied by three or five guys.

Here." Chen Jiuying said with a painful look on her face.

"I don't have any freedom at all. I'm so angry that even my mother won't let me go out. Fortunately, you're back, otherwise I would be suffocated at home."

Li Yuezhu listened to Chen Jiuying's complaints with a smile. It felt really good to have a best friend.

Chen Jiuying did not take Li Yuezhu back to her yard, but to her mother.

"Mother, mother, look who is here to see me." Chen Jiuying started shouting loudly before she even stepped into the courtyard. She didn't look like a lady.

Chen Jiuying took Li Yuezhu's hand and strode into the courtyard.

Mrs. Chen was talking to her grandma in the room when she heard her daughter's call from far away. This girl hadn't made such a loud noise in half a month. It seemed that she had regained her energy today.

"Mom, look who's here." Chen Jiuying jumped into the house with Li Yuezhu, grinning from ear to ear, looking really happy.

"Oh, I thought who could make our little ancestor so happy. It turns out it's Yuezhu who's here. It's so hot outside. Hurry, come in quickly."

Mrs. Chen was also very happy after seeing Li Yuezhu. When she saw the rose-red feather gauze skirt Li Yuezhu was wearing, she looked very pretty and lovely.

"Come in quickly, cool down." Mrs. Chen stood up and welcomed Li Yuezhu in.

"Mom, Yuezhu has brought us delicious food again, look." Chen Jiuying raised the hand holding the watermelon. Her palm was already bruised and she didn't even notice it.

"Oh, grandma Zhao, hurry up and take it. What is this? It's weird." Of course, Mrs. Chen has never seen a watermelon before.

Taking away the net bag, I only looked at the green melon with black stripes on it. Whoever saw it was surprised!

"Madam, please don't dislike it. I soaked this melon in the well all night yesterday. Let's cut it open and eat it while it's still a little cold."

After hearing what Li Yuezhu said, Mrs. Chen quickly asked Grandma Wang to go to the kitchen to get a knife. She was already a little impatient.

After getting the knife back, Grandma Wang was at a loss when it came to the watermelon. She didn't even know how to cut it.

Li Yuezhu looked at a few people with big eyes and small eyes, and simply took the knife: "I'll cut it for you to eat."

Mrs. Chen looked at Li Yuezhu holding the kitchen knife and her face changed with fright: "Oh, you girl, can you play with the knife casually? Come on, put it down and let them cut it."

Li Yuezhu smiled brightly at Mrs. Chen: "Don't worry, Aunt Chen. The girls in our village are used to handling knives, so I will be careful."

As he spoke, he gently cut off the watermelon. As soon as the watermelon was touched by the knife blade, a crisp cracking sound was heard. The knife was still hanging on the skin, and the whole melon was cut open.

"It's really a good melon, but I don't know if it tastes good or not."

Several people gathered around the table, looking at the magical melon, which was actually red inside. They also had gourds and other fruits here, but they had never seen such a strange one. Smelling the fresh smell in the air, they were so greedy.

People are drooling.

"This melon is a must-have in summer. I guarantee you will come after me after eating it once." What Li Yuezhu said was rough and unreasonable, and maybe it was really like that.

Li Yuezhu cut half of it and took out a piece of land for Mrs. Chen: "Madam, please try to see if it suits your taste."

Chen Jiuying, on the other hand, had already picked up one with quick eyesight and started eating it.

"It's delicious, it's really delicious. It's so sweet. It's sweeter than the candy sold in that shop." Chen Jiuying opened her mouth and said before she could swallow the watermelon in her mouth.

Li Yuezhu watched the child wolfing down the food and reminded her: "If you want to spit out the seeds, don't eat them too."

Mrs. Chen has never tasted such a sweet melon. Li Yuezhu soaked this melon in the well all night. It was very cold inside but not cold to the stomach. Not to mention how delicious it was.

"Quick, Grandma Wang, while the melons are still cold, go and give some to the master."

Mrs. Chen hadn't finished one piece here, but Chen Jiuying had already ordered three pieces. While she was eating, she was looking at the things on the table, for fear that someone would snatch them away.

"You girl really bring surprises to others. I can't blame you for being afraid that our Xiaojiu will come after you." Mrs. Chen picked up the second piece and took a bite. It was sweet and she was extremely satisfied.
