Chapter 727 Liu Family Youyou
Jiang Tongtu laughed like a fool, and the other members of the Jiang family found it unbearable to watch.
"We're done eating. Let's go. Eryong, you'll be driving today, so don't bring servants with you to avoid having a bunch of people following us. Pingmei, you and I will sit in the carriage, and Tongtu and your father will sit outside. That way, Miss Liu will be able to see you when she lifts the curtain."
Zhang Jinlan was helped out of the door by Sun Pingmei, got on the carriage driven by her second son, and left the city.
Jiang Fubao also came to her clinic to start a new day.
The Jiang family members are all busy with their own things.
An hour later, Zhang Jinlan arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Unexpectedly, when she got off the carriage, she found that the Liu family had been waiting there.
In my heart, I became more and more satisfied with the Liu family. They were polite and did not take advantage of the girl. In fact, the time for the two to meet had not yet arrived.
Both families arrived early.
"Youyou, I haven't seen you for a few days. You look much prettier now. It's true that a girl changes every day after she reaches the age of 15. Come and have a look at grandma. Look, your little face is so tender that you can almost pinch it to make water come out of it."
Zhang Jinlan held Liu Youyou's hand and praised her.
"Grandma Zhang, I'm not that pretty, but thank you for the compliment. Hehe, grandma, didn't Fubao come? I thought she would come with me. What a pity. I usually like to play with beautiful women. When I see Fubao's face, I don't even need to eat. I feel full."
Liu Youyou liked Jiang Fubao very much, even though they had only been together for a while.
"It's okay. We'll see each other for a long time. Let's go. We'll be at the top of the mountain by noon. Xiaoyun, you and Pingmei, please help me. I'm old and my body is not strong enough. Tongtu, don't let Youyou go alone. You should take good care of her. Eryong, you and Weixian should lead the way. We'll follow you."
Zhang Jinlan deliberately put Liu Youyou and Sun Zi together and also made arrangements for the other people.
The two men walked in front, Youyou and Tongtu walked in the middle, and they followed behind. This way they could feel more at ease and would not disturb the two children, and they could also keep an eye on them.
It was obvious that Qian Yun was very satisfied with this arrangement, and so was Liu Weixian.
"Brother Jiang, why don't you say anything?" After walking a few steps, Liu Youyou spoke first.
"No, I, I'm a little embarrassed." Jiang Tongtu changed from his usual carefree attitude and became shy.
"Why are you embarrassed to talk to me? Just tell me what you want to say. Let's go. Let's hurry up. Your father and my father walk so fast. If you dawdle any longer, we won't be able to catch up."
Although Liu Youyou was wearing a skirt, she walked with big steps and looked very majestic.
Instead, the carefully dressed Jiang Tongtu looked like a little girl.
The two chatted as they went up the mountain and walked through countless stairs. Jiang Tongtu was a little tired, but Liu Youyou's breathing was calm and steady. It was obvious that she never stayed at home on weekdays.
"Where do you often go? Let's go together someday when you are free."
Jiang Tongtu asked while panting, but he was too embarrassed to ask her to stop and rest for a while.
After all, the girl was not tired, but he was complaining about being tired. It was so embarrassing.
"Me? I have plenty of places to play, but they are all girls, so you'd better not go, so as not to scare them again. If I go out to play with the maids and servants at home, I will call you." Liu Youyou stopped and answered. She found that her mother and Jiang's grandmother and aunt who followed her were gone.
"Let's take a break and wait for them." Liu Youyou took the initiative to say. "Okay, that's what I was thinking. Here's a stone. Let's sit down for a while." Jiang Tongtu breathed a sigh of relief. He could finally take a break. He immediately saw the big stone in front of him. He sat down on it and felt relaxed all over.
Liu Youyou then realized that he was tired.
"Look at you. You don't even know how to say you're tired. How can I still make fun of you? Do you know what this is called?" Liu Youyou handed him a handkerchief and let him wipe the sweat off his face.
"I don't know, what's your name?" Jiang Tongtu took the handkerchief, but was reluctant to wipe it. He kept holding it in his hand and asked blankly.
"You're asking for death but you're suffering for the sake of dignity! You fool." Liu Youyou curled her lips.
If you don't know how to say you are tired and just keep going on, you are either a fool or something.
Jiang Tongtu, who was scolded, was not angry at all.
"Hehe, I'm afraid you'll laugh at me. You didn't even complain of being tired, so how can I, a grown man, have the nerve to complain of being tired?" He touched his head and grinned foolishly, then quietly stuffed the handkerchief in his hand into his clothes.
He thought he had done it perfectly, but in fact Liu Youyou saw everything.
She raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, without exposing him.
She also had a good impression of Jiang Tongtu, who looked silly, but she could get along well with him and didn't mind that he behaved like a man, was carefree and loved to go out and play.
Of the two men she had dated before, one was arrogant and said that she should stay at home and seldom go out, otherwise she would be unfaithful to her husband. The other said that women should be gentle, filial to their parents, learn embroidery to support their family, and then support their in-laws in the future. So she rejected both of them.
What the hell, she might as well be a happy old maid than marrying a man like this.
"Look, there's a rabbit lying on the ground." Just when Liu Youyou was distracted, Jiang Tongtu suddenly pointed behind her and said.
Liu Youyou quickly turned around and saw a rabbit lying beside the tree not far from her. If it weren't for the slight movement of its body under its fur, she would have thought that the rabbit was dead.
The two walked over.
"There's blood at the corner of its mouth. It seems injured." Jiang Tongtu said, pulling its ears.
“It’s not good to kill animals under the Buddhist temple.” After Liu Youyou said this, Jiang Tongtu thought she wanted to save the rabbit. He was about to say take the rabbit to the temple and let the monks save it before releasing it, but Liu Youyou spoke again.
"I'll send it down the mountain and take it home to eat. Fried rabbit meat with peppers is delicious. You will definitely like it after you try it. You can have dinner at my house tonight. My mother said that she would invite you to dinner. I have asked the maid to prepare it. When the time comes, add this dish. I will cook it myself."
Liu Youyou smacked her lips, becoming a little impatient.
"You, you really are...Haha, I'll go and take it there." Jiang Tongtu shook his head helplessly. Yes, how could the girl he liked let go of the rabbit she had in her hands? She would save it even though she knew it had internal injuries and could not be saved. If she had picked up a rabbit, she should take it home to eat.
Sure enough, the person he had his eyes on was just what he wanted.
Jiang Tongtu liked her even more.
"You? Forget it. You look tired. I'll go take it myself. You just rest here." Liu Youyou grabbed the rabbit and stood up to leave. How could Jiang Tongtu let her go down the mountain alone?
I also followed him down the mountain.
The two of them happened to take a break and watch some rabbits in the woods, while Zhang Jinlan and the other two had already passed this place and climbed up.
As a result, both of them reached the foot of the mountain without meeting each other's mother and grandmother.
