Chapter 32
Facing Adi's question, Li Qingyou couldn't help but sigh. It's easy to destroy something as illusory as reputation, but it's too difficult to change it for the better.
No matter what era, whether you are a man or a woman, you all have a heart for gossip.
And people often only want to believe what they want to believe, and the gossip and entertainment of doing something like this is no less than that of scandal, so she can only follow the trend.
The most important thing is to deter those with evil intentions.
As for saying she couldn't get married due to her bad reputation, she really didn't care.
In addition to the view of getting married, Li Qingyou told Adi what he understood, "...So, relatively speaking, God is fair. If it gives you some, it will take away some. The most important thing is you." What do you want?"
Adi nodded as if he understood. He thought of himself. He had wealth and honor that ordinary people might not be able to enjoy in their lifetime, and he also had a noble status. However, his mother passed away and his father did not love him.
But after he lost these, he gained sister Qingyou.
"Well, what sister said makes sense." Adi nodded in agreement.
Li Qingyou touched his head happily. What she liked most was Adi's obedience. Even if he didn't understand, he would listen to her very seriously, which made her feel very accomplished.
The two siblings talked again, Li Qingyou stood up to feed the chickens, donkeys and pigs, and Adi got up to clear the table and wash the dishes. Although it only lasted for a few days, this seemed to have become the norm in their lives.
The pig pen was closest to the gate, so Li Qingyou went to feed the pigs in the end, but suddenly heard a movement at the gate.
My heart suddenly tightened. Could it be that those people were unwilling to give up and still wanted to act like monsters at night?
Li Qingyou's right hand was pointing towards the rake used to stir the pig food. She walked quietly to the door and opened the door suddenly. Suddenly an object fell in and fell at her feet.
Li Qingyou exclaimed, raised the rake and dropped it, but when he was about to hit him, he saw the man's face clearly.
"Weak chicken?"
The person who collapsed at the door was the scholar I met in Dawa Village two days ago.
He looked disheveled and curled up on the ground. He probably woke up from the fall. He slowly opened his eyes and took a clear look at the girl in front of him through the moonlight.
"Girl?" It could be seen that the weakling was also quite surprised. He struggled to get up from the ground. Maybe it was because he had been sitting for too long, or maybe he was too hungry and had no strength, so he almost fell down again.
It was Li Qingyou who supported him.
The weakling smiled apologetically, and the two of them said almost at the same time, "What a coincidence."
It was a chance encounter, but unexpectedly we met again.
Li Qingyou let the weakling into the house. Since he was a foreigner and heard that he would soon go to Beijing to take the exam, she did not let him hide in the Xili room.
Knowing that the weak chicken's last meal was the cereal dumplings and tofu that Li Qingyou gave him that day, he happened to walk to the door of Li's house and passed out. Li Qingyou also sighed at the wonder of fate.
There was still some dinner left, and it happened to be not too cold. Li Qingyou took out the food and watched the chicken eat it all, which made her feel more energetic.
"Didn't you go to look for relatives, but you didn't find anyone?" Li Qingyou handed him a bowl of tea.
The weakling drank it gurglingly, then sighed and shook his head. His relatives had moved away and were nowhere to be found.
"...There was a disaster in my hometown, and I was the only one left. I wanted to go to my relatives, but who knew..." The weakling stamped his feet and beat his chest, about to cry, "Oh, God is really going to kill me."
Li Qingyou frowned, the last thing he wanted to see was someone feeling sorry for themselves.
"When you encounter difficulties, just solve them. What's the use of being so sad about the spring and autumn?" Li Qingyou said very rudely, "You are a grown man, how can you starve to death?"
It's really possible. If he hadn't met her, he might have died of cold and hunger tonight.
The weakling smiled bitterly and wanted to say that a penny would stump the heroic man, but looking at Li Qingyou's vibrant eyes, all the words were stuck in his throat and he could not speak.
It's really sad that even a young lady can live a good life, but a grown man like him is so miserable.
"By the way, how does the girl know my name?" The weakling suddenly remembered that he heard her call his name when he was at the door. At that time, he was still wondering that he had never told her, so how could she know?
Li Qingyou's face was full of questions, "What word?"
"Ruo Ji, this is my name." Xiaoji said seriously: "My surname is Feng, my name is Wenru, and my courtesy name is Ruo Ji. My father makes a living by fishing. He wears a green Ruo hat, a green raincoat, and there is no need to return in the slanting wind and drizzle. He said
It was my father. He hoped that I could obtain fame, and my mentor told me not to forget my original intention and to remember the kindness of my parents, so he gave me this name."
Li Qingyou, "..."
This weakling is not that Ruoji.
"Uh...have you forgotten what you said?" Li Qingyou simply pushed back and refused to admit it.
Weak chicken, oh no, Feng Wenru nodded suspiciously, maybe he said it accidentally but didn't remember it.
Adi's eyes were rolling. After spending so many days with Li Qingyou, he could roughly guess some of her thoughts through her eyes and body language.
He was sure that was not the case.
"Ruo Ji has inherited the girl's kindness twice, but you still don't know her surname?" Only her husband's family knew the girl's maiden name, so he only asked her surname very wisely.
Li Qingyou didn't think so much and directly reported her and Adi's names.
"Qing Qing Zi Pei, I think about it, what a good name." Feng Wenru habitually shook his head when he mentioned the Classics and History Collection. In Li Qingyou's opinion, this was probably an occupational disease.
He didn't criticize Adi's name. Literally, it could be understood that their parents wanted a boy, but he was surprised how the two sisters' names were so different, and they didn't look alike.
Aren't they biological sisters?
But after all, he wasn't familiar with her, so it was hard for him to inquire about such things.
There followed a period of silence. Feng Wenru had nowhere to stay and was penniless, so he wanted to stay overnight.
But there were two girls, and he really couldn't speak. He rubbed the rim of the bowl from time to time, thinking about what to say. If he said it out loud, others would think he had bad intentions, and they would dislike him.
Adi had the same idea as him. He didn't want the other person to stay. Who knew if this person had good intentions?
Li Qingyou didn't think about this. He just heard Feng Wenru say that he was here to find his cousin, named Feng Anyu. Maybe he would see Zhang Tieniu tomorrow and ask him to help check if there is such a person in Qingshan County, or where he has moved?
Seeing that it was getting late and it was time to take a rest, it would be too late if I didn't say anything.
Feng Wenru said, "Miss Li, I have a heartfelt request for you. I hope you will be considerate..."
He expressed his request to stay overnight, "I know it's difficult to force anyone to do anything, even a woodshed. I just want a shelter from the wind and rain until the next day..."
