Chapter 495: Marriage Exchange (VII)
"Liu Shuyu, take the money to the captain and ask him to accompany you to Meihua's house to propose marriage. Tell him that I lent you the money, but only you and the captain know about it."
"What should I answer when Meihua's family asks where the betrothal money came from?" Liu Shuyu asked after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"The captain will help you explain, but I suggest that you should cut off the relationship between Sister Meihua and her family. Otherwise, if they can plot against Sister Meihua once, they can do it to her a second time."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Shuyu nodded to show that he understood, and then he left with the backpack on his back.
Lu Xiaoxiao glanced at Liu Shuyu's leaving back and then closed the gate. However, before she reached the main room, she heard someone knocking on the gate, so she went back to the gate and opened it.
"Liu Shuyu, why are you back? Is there something wrong?" Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door of the yard and saw Liu Shuyu standing there, so she asked.
"I forgot to give you this book just now." Liu Shuyu said as he took a book out of his sleeve and handed it to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"What book?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked as she took the book Liu Shuyu handed to her.
"It's a medical book. I brought it here thinking you might like it."
"Thank you." Lu Xiaoxiao said to him after hearing Liu Shuyu's words.
"You're welcome. You've helped me and Meihua so much. This book is nothing."
"Thank you. After all, this is a token of your appreciation. Go find the captain. The sooner the matter is resolved, the better. Otherwise, there will be more trouble."
"Um."
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Shuyu's running back and smiled, then closed the yard door and walked towards the main room.
"Who knocked on the door just now?" Zhang Xu asked the little girl when he saw her enter the room.
"Liu Shuyu."
"He left, so why is he back?"
"He said he forgot to give me this book." Lu Xiaoxiao said after handing the book to Zhang Xu.
"Bian Que's Internal Classic" Zhang Xu took the book handed to him by the little girl, opened the first page and read.
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao immediately rushed to Zhang Xu and snatched the book from his hand. Then she flipped through the book and burst into laughter.
Zhang Xu saw the little girl laughing and asked, "What's so funny?"
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao said, "This book is funny."
Zhang Xu was even more confused after hearing what the little girl said. According to the title of the book he had just seen, it should be a medical book. As far as he knew, weren't medical books boring? How could it be funny?
"Are medical books funny?" Zhang Xu asked when he couldn't figure it out.
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao knew that he had misunderstood what she said, so she explained, "It's not the medical book that's funny, I'm laughing because I found this book. You don't know that I have been looking for this book for a long time, but I haven't found it yet. I didn't expect it to be delivered to my door today. This may be the case of good deeds being rewarded."
After hearing what the little girl said, Zhang Xu finally understood why she was laughing, so he asked, "Do you have any other books you want?"
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao immediately looked at him with shining eyes. Zhang Xu's network of contacts was much wider than hers, so it must be easier for him to find the remaining two medical books than hers, so she said, "I'm still looking for Bian Que Wai Jing and Bai's Wai Jing."
