Across the Market

Chapter 186

Xie Tong looked at her quietly, the sunlight outside shone on her face, making the girl's skin more tender and whiter, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, even a plain face is still good-looking.She has a heart-shaped face, a pointed chin, and a high and clean forehead. The hair on her forehead is gently combed to the top of her hair, and even the exposed bun line is beautiful.He looks gentle and easy-going, but he is full of justice in his bones. He seems impulsive, but when things really happen, he is very measured.

Sometimes, he always felt that she was not like a street girl in a small town at all, but a big girl who had seen some world experience.

The two sat by the window, each having their own thoughts, Zhu Fu was staring at the table in a daze, while Xie Tong sat upright and looked at her.To outsiders, it's like a man looking at a woman without hesitation, while the woman lowers her head shyly. Whether it's a passer-by upstairs on the street or an idler who comes to a teahouse to drink tea, they all quietly cast their eyes on her. come down.

Shen Yulou accompanied Zhu Gui to the bookstore to buy pens and inks, and Zhu Gui had to take the county examination in the past few days, and these days, he got very close to Shen Yulou.

As someone who has experienced it, and as his future cousin-in-law, Shen Yulou is more than happy to help Zhu Gui.

"Don't stay up late to study these few days, go to bed early, and get enough sleep to nourish your energy to perform normally." Walking out of the bookstore, Shen Yulou patted Zhu Gui on the shoulder lightly.

After all Zhu Gui is young, a full head shorter than Shen Yulou, he nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not disappoint you." He raised his head and smiled at Shen Yulou, the young man is handsome and elegant , she has not yet grown up, and she has a bit of a girlish appearance, especially when she smiles, she looks a little like Zhu Fu.

Shen Yulou laughed silently, and somewhere in his heart was very soft, yes, he thought he was too young.He missed her after only a few hours.

"Brother Shen, look, isn't that my second cousin?" Zhu Gui's eyes were sharp, and he saw Zhu Fu and Xie Tong sitting on the second floor of the teahouse at a glance, "The person sitting opposite her seems to be the elder brother of Xie's family. , why would he take my second cousin to the teahouse? Why did he keep staring at the second cousin, the second cousin blushed. Could it be..." Zhu Gui's curiosity arose, and Shen Yulou's face suddenly became very pale Ugly, he only thought that Shen Yulou was worried about the second cousin's reputation, but he didn't think about it elsewhere, "Brother Shen, should we go and have a look?"

Shen Yulou's clear eyes were stained with jealousy, and he clenched the hand hanging by his side lightly, the serious look on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a soft smile.

"Brother Gui, go back first, I'll go and have a look."

"But……"

"Go back..." Although Shen Yulou's voice was soft, his attitude was very firm and could not be resisted.

Zhu Gui looked at Zhu Fu again, thinking that elder brother Shen is just like his cousin, if his cousin was standing here at this moment, he would probably say and do the same.

"Brother Shen, don't scold my second cousin, she has been like this recently, her temper has become playful." Zhu Gui nodded slightly to Shen Yulou, and then left.

After Zhu Gui left, Shen Yulou put away the smirk on his face, raised his eyes and looked at the teahouse again, and then walked away.

Zhu Fu thought for a while and said: "Then what should we do now? We can't just leave him alone, right? Or we can sue the officials. I think the newly appointed Mr. Zhao is a good official who works for the welfare of the people. Fu Sheng is brought to the law. Yes, we will go to the county government office now."

He stood up while talking, but Xie Tong grabbed his wrist.

"Miss Zhu, don't worry, I will discuss it with Mr. Zhao at this time." Xie Dao said, "This is not something that Miss Zhu can control. I am afraid that this matter will involve a lot of people. Maybe there are masters behind it. You It’s better not to get involved.”

Zhu Fu struggled for his hand, Xie Tong realized that he was rude, and let go of his hand quickly.

Zhu Fu turned her wrist slightly, and she could still feel the strength and temperature of the wrist. She just felt a little pain, but she didn't show any extra expressions.Xie Tong was very embarrassed because he saw Shen Yulou walking towards him slowly.

This Shen Yulou wore a half-worn lavender robe, which was slightly whitish after washing, but the coarse clothes could not conceal his handsome appearance at all.

This Songyang County really has a lot of characters, and this Shen Yulou should be a well-known character, with a character like a chrysanthemum, a gentleman, and he will definitely be a pillar of the country in the future.

"Mr. Xie? Why are you here with Ah Fu?" Shen Yulou stretched out his hand lightly, and pulled Zhu Fu behind him as if he didn't care. When no one was paying attention, he took a deep look at her. With anger, with threats, and naturally with pampering.

Zhu Fu could clearly feel the jealousy on his body, and he was very happy in his heart, and blinked at him.

Shen Yulou smiled, squeezed her soft and boneless little hand lightly, and then nodded to her.

Xie Tong noticed the small actions of the two of them, Xie Tong looked away slightly, and said again: "Why is Mr. Shen here?"

Shen Yulou said: "I'm here to pick Ah Fu home." Seeing that Xie Tong's black eyes were glued to his face, he chuckled and said, "I watched Ah Fu grow up, and Ah Lu and I grew up again. The best friend who played together, he is usually busy and has no time to take care of his sister, so I will take care of him."

Xie Tong thought in his heart, this reason is quite aboveboard.
