Pastoral Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 524 Doubt (2)
Li Zhu narrated the matter concisely and neatly.

After hearing this, Ning Ximai laughed mockingly: "So, your mother wants to observe the festival on Erlong Mountain? You must know that this mountain is full of bandits, all of them are similar. She rejected Zhu Heng today, and Liu Heng Wang Heng, she has to find a man."

Li Zhu continued: "But people are different after all. Even if they grow on the same tree, the leaves are different. My mother just wants to find someone who suits her heart."

Ning Ximai was noncommittal, neither saying yes nor no.

Li Zhu waited anxiously.After a long time, she looked up and couldn't help but get angry.The man fell asleep leaning back in the chair.

Li Zhu did not leave, nor did he stay.I had to watch him helplessly.

She looked at the sun outside the house, it should be around Weishi now.Anyway, it's fine for her to go back, so she might as well spend time with him.

Thinking of this, Li Zhu was not in a hurry anymore, she quietly dragged a chair and sat down, and also found a book for herself to read.

Ning Ximai seemed to be sleeping soundly, and even purred slightly.

Li Zhu sat quietly on the chair and gently turned the pages of the book.

Half an hour passed.Ning Ximai finally woke up.He stretched his arms and moved his legs, looking refreshed.

Li Zhu also stood up, put the book back to its original place, and waited silently.

Seeing Li Zhu, he asked in surprise, "Why are you still here?"

Li Zhu replied in a flat voice: "The head of the family didn't tell me to go, so I dare not go."

Ning Ximai raised the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice, "Then you can go now."

Li Zhu still stood still.

"What?" Ning Ximai raised his eyebrows and asked.

Li Zhu's patience was about to run out, she raised her face, looked into Ning Ximai's eyes and said quickly: "Boss, I remember you once said that people in the village are not allowed to rob people's daughters. Could it be that my mother is Is a member of the village even inferior to the status of the women at the bottom of the mountain? If the safety on the mountain cannot be guaranteed, then why do people leave everything and go up the mountain?"

"Yeah. Well said, go ahead."

Ning Ximai stared at Li Zhu with those cold eyes, which made her feel like she had nowhere to hide.

"You can go." Ning Ximai gave the order to evict the guest again.

Li Zhu knew that this was her last chance, so she decided to fight it out, but she still stubbornly stood still.

"Well, I promise you, I will deal with this matter as soon as possible."

Li Zhu got this guarantee, so he left in peace.

Li Zhu went back to Nan Yu and told her about the process of interceding.

Nanyu appreciated her very much, she smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so bold. I heard that people on the mountain are afraid of him. Why are you not afraid of him at all?"

Li Zhu said a few perfunctory words, saying that he might only be thinking about his mother, and even forget about fear.
