Chapter 81

Luo Mansion

Rakushinin

Yin Miaoshan took the exquisite short bow in her hand and looked at it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. The material of the short bow was not expensive, but it was very light and fit perfectly in her sleeve.

She looked at her second brother and asked, "Second brother, where did you find it?" With her second brother's naive personality, he didn't know how to find such a good thing to please her.

Seeing her full of joy, Yin Xianjun's eyes twinkled, and instead of answering, he asked, "Do you like it very much?"

Yin Miaoshan nodded, "Of course!" She simply couldn't let it go. She had always wanted to find a weapon for self-defense, but she couldn't find one she liked. Now this is exactly what she wants.

"As long as you like it!" Yin Xianjun felt relieved. It seemed that Brother Su's efforts were not in vain.

Yin Miaoshan raised her eyebrows and looked at Yin Xianjun, saying, "Second brother, are you hiding something from me?"

Yin Xianjun chuckled and said, "How dare I?" Brother Su had instructed that she must not know for the time being that it was he who sent it.

"Well, second brother still has to review his lessons, so I'll be going back to the yard now." If he continues to be stared at by his sister, he will be exposed.

Having said that, Yin Xianjun walked out.

Yin Miaoshan watched him leave and felt that her second brother was very strange. She said to Chunyue and Xiayu, "Do you think that our second brother is strange?"

Chunyue nodded, "The Second Young Master does look a little uncomfortable."

Yin Miaoshan looked at the short bow in her hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Xia Yu, go keep an eye on the second brother and see if he has gone anywhere."

Xia Yu nodded.

The next day, after Yin Xianjun saw his uncle go out, he also left Luo's house and went towards a restaurant on West Street.

Seeing this, Xia Yu hurried to follow.

When she arrived at the restaurant, she saw a man walk out of the restaurant's side room and take the second young master in. She could only see the man's back and not his face. Thinking of the girl's instructions, she quickly told the waiter that she wanted the room next to the side room.

After she entered the room, she told the waiter not to disturb her unless necessary and to call him when she needed anything.

Although the waiter felt strange, he didn't say anything.

Xia Yu closed the door and tiptoed to the wall that separated the room from the other side.

The person Yin Xianjun came to see this time was Su Yi.

"Brother Su, your efforts paid off. I really like the short bow you gave me."

Su Yi nodded, looking pleased, and said, "She really likes it!"

Yin Xianjun was a little confused and asked, "Brother Su, since you like my sister, why don't you tell her that this is a gift from you?"

"It's not the time yet." Su Yi touched his nose. If that girl knew it was a gift from him, it would be strange if she accepted it. In recent days, he had frequently "encountered" her by chance. Every time she saw him, she turned around and left, as if there was a plague on him, which made him so angry that he wanted to bite her.

Yin Xianjun said seriously, "Brother Su, you and I hit it off right away, but friendship is friendship. If you really marry my sister in the future, you must not be indecisive and make her sad."

Su Yi patted his forehead with his folding fan and glared at him, "Am I such a person?"

Yin Xianjun chuckled and said, that’s true. It was fate that he met Brother Su. That day, he was not paying attention when a thief stole his purse on the street. When he went to the bookstore to choose a book and pay for it, he realized that his purse was gone. The shopkeeper stared at him, making him feel very embarrassed.

Fortunately, he met Brother Su, who not only helped him out of the predicament. I also recommended several good books to him, and through conversations with him, I discovered his erudition, which benefited me a lot. So the two of them became acquainted with each other.

At first he thought that he was approaching him on purpose, but later his cousin from the Luo family told him that Brother Su was the eldest son of Shangshu Su, and was ranked among the best in Kyoto in terms of family background and literary talent, while his family was of a small family, so there was no need for people to approach him on purpose.

Moreover, Brother Su was good friends with his cousin's husband and had also met his cousin and younger sister, so he felt at ease allowing him to interact with them. After spending these days together, he discovered that although Brother Su was the son of the Shangshu Mansion, he was humble and generous to others, not arrogant because of his talent, and did not have the dandy character of the children of wealthy families. He is someone worth making friends with.

But he didn't expect that Brother Su was actually interested in his sister.

"Brother Su, why do you like my sister?" Yin Xianjun really couldn't understand. Sometimes he was not willing to compliment his sister's personality. She doesn't look like a lady at all. She likes to run out and play all day long. She is not good at playing music, chess, calligraphy or painting. He is quite powerful when fighting with others.

"Brother Su, let me tell you something in advance. My sister can't even sew a pair of socks for me, let alone be well-educated and well-mannered. She...she just likes to stand up for the weak and be chivalrous." Yin Xianjun said embarrassedly.

Su Yi smiled and said frankly, "I just like her straightforwardness and her naturalness." Thinking of this, her clear and calm eyes appeared in his mind.

"I can't say anything else about my sister, but this is the best." Yin Xianjun nodded.

Xia Yu was lying on the wall and could only vaguely hear them talking, but couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

She looked up at the window, then she walked over, pushed it open, held the windowsill with her hands, and leaned out of the window, just in time to see that the window next door was also open.

When she saw clearly who was inside, she was a little stunned. It turned out that the person who met the second young master was Mr. Su. They seem to be having a pleasant conversation, as if they are very familiar with each other. But how does the Second Young Master know Young Master Su?

Before she could figure it out, she saw them leaving, so she hurried to the door, but when she opened it, she saw Yin Xianjun looking at her with a smile.

"Hehe! Second Young Master, what a coincidence!" Xia Yu said with a dry laugh.

Yin Xianjun glared at her and said, "What a coincidence, I asked you to come with me."

"Miss, you are worried about the second young master, so you asked me to come with you to check on him." Xia Yu replied embarrassedly.

Yin Xianjun raised an eyebrow and asked, "So what did you see?"

Xia Yu pursed her lips and said, "Second Young Master, when did you become so close to Master Su?"

"If you want your daughter to have a good marriage, don't tell her what you saw today."

Xia Yu whispered to him, "Second Young Master, are you trying to match the girl with Mr. Su?"

"Is there anything wrong?" Yin Xianjun asked.

It's more than different, it's totally wrong. Her girl now treats Mr. Su as if he were the god of plague. Does this look like a good marriage?

However, I have to say that Mr. Su is indeed a handsome man, and it is rare that he cares about girls. It’s just that I have too many female confidants. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to control himself and provoke one or two of them, which would make the girl sad. What if? The girl has finally gotten over her heartbreak and can't afford to suffer this.

"Second Young Master, you'd better not interfere in this matter." Otherwise, if the girl wants to beat you up, I won't be able to help you, Xia Yu complained in her heart.

Yin Xianjun waved her hand and said, "Brother Su is a trustworthy person. I believe that as long as I know his good qualities, I will like him."

Xia Yu blinked. Is that so?
