Chapter 39
The mold used by the Li family to shape the tofu was just a flat wooden board, and Li Qingyou was thinking about carving words on it. She knew how to write the words, but she had to find a way for others to follow them, but her two characters were really difficult to use.
Don't take action.
Just when I was thinking about it, Feng Wenru came.
Li Qingyou's eyes lit up, she was really worried about having no firewood, and a sticky bean bag fell from the sky.
"I happened to be looking for you, but I didn't expect you to come here." Li Qingyou smiled with crooked eyebrows. Feng Wenru was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately blushed.
"I wonder what the young lady is looking for?" Feng Wenru avoided looking into Li Qingyou's eyes, and glanced eastward from time to time, where he lived that day.
When he thought about the things that night, Feng Wenru looked very unnatural, thinking about finding some opportunity to quietly go in and take out the things, but it was a pity that Li Qingyou didn't give him a chance.
"I want to ask you to write something for me, but I don't have pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home. Why don't we go out and buy it now?" Li Qingyou's words brought his attention back.
Feng Wenru was a poor scholar. He had no money or anything, but he did have pens, inks, paper and inkstones. After hearing this, he immediately told him to go home and get them.
After a while, he came back with a pen and paper. When he heard what Li Qingyou was going to write, Feng Wenru frowned, "Girl, don't do it. Money is an external thing. Cursing yourself for money is absolutely unacceptable."
What Li Qingyou asked him to help write was a demon character. She also told Feng Wenru her plan to carve a demon character on the mold and draw a cross on it. She even thought of the name, which was called Demon-Suppressing Tofu.
Originally, she planned to write the two words "Suppress Demon" directly on it, but considering that a piece of tofu is not very big, it is better to simply write one word, and the word "Monster" is also simpler.
"How can I curse myself?" Li Qingyou smiled bitterly, "Anyway, I have gained such a reputation. Thanks to your cousin, I don't have to go to the city to sell tofu anymore. Instead of doing this, I might as well take this opportunity to make more money.
.”
Even if she doesn't do this, she still has the reputation of being a witch. In that case, why not make more use of her?
Feng Wenru also understood what Li Qingyou meant. Even so, he still disapproved of it. At the same time, he was also upset that his uncle should not let a girl's family suffer such a reputation. However, Li Qingyou took the initiative to do this. He didn't even know who to blame.
Feng Wenru was a scholar, and his aristocracy and stubbornness were deep in his bones. However, he was not unsophisticated at all, so he took a step back and said, "Why don't you just write the word "Zhen"?"
At least a little stronger than the demon.
"In this way, the girl's goal is achieved without making it too ugly." Feng Wenru said.
Li Qingyou thought it was okay and nodded in agreement.
Feng Wenru wrote the words on the paper according to the size she requested. After all, she was a person who had studied hard for ten years. Her every word was elegant and elegant, with an edge looming at the tip of the pen, but the edge was hidden at the end of the pen.
go.
Even though Li Qingyou didn't know calligraphy, she still thought the calligraphy was good. She picked up the paper and kept nodding, "It's so beautiful."
Feng Wenru's face was slightly shy, but he was extremely happy in his heart.
Li Qingyou dried the words and put them away, and then she remembered to ask him what he wanted.
"I'm here to say goodbye to the girl today." Feng Wenru said that he was going to Beijing to take the exam. He took out a scroll and put it on the table. "Feng has no talent, but his painting skills are barely noticeable. Now I will use this painting."
I'm giving it to the girl, I hope you won't dislike it."
"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it." Li Qingyou picked up the painting and opened it. There was a flower painted on it. In the distance was a bamboo forest, which was light, elegant, and quite interesting.
"The painting is really good." Li Qingyou praised sincerely, "Here, do me a favor and I'll hang it on the wall."
Then he found a hammer and nails and asked Feng Wenru to help hang the painting.
"Just hang it in the main room so people who come in can see it."
There was an extra painting in the originally dark main room, which immediately added a bit of elegance. Li Qingyou was also very happy.
Feng Wenru was relieved to see her happy, but at the same time a little sad, and he didn't know if she understood the meaning of the painting.
After the painting was delivered, it was time for him to leave, so he said goodbye to Li Qingyou, "If I gain fame in the future, I will never forget this girl's great kindness."
"Well said, I wish you high school first." Li Qingyou sent Feng Wenru outside the gate and watched him walk away. Just as he was about to go back to the house, he saw Qin Xiu standing at the corner.
Li Qingyou had no intention of taking care of her. Just as he was about to go back, he heard Qin Xiu say something nonchalant, "I didn't expect sister Qingyou to be so close to the scholar. I thought it was him who came to thank my sister for taking me in."
Bar."
Li Qingyou found it funny. She knew that Qin Xiu liked Zhang Tieniu, but he always came here to stimulate her. What did it mean?
"I can't compare to my sister who is looking forward to seeing him. Feng Shusheng hasn't gone far yet. It's too late for my sister to chase him now." Li Qingyou said with a mocking look on his face.
Just tear it apart, no one is afraid of whom.
"You." Qin Xiu's face changed suddenly, she squeezed the handkerchief tightly and stared at Li Qingyou, "Don't think too much about Brother Zhang, he will not marry a witch like you."
Even if he wanted to marry her, his mother would definitely not agree.
Li Qingyou turned around and sneered, "If you have the ability, ask him to marry you. Stop being such a nagging person like me, or I'll be rude to you."
After saying that, she turned around and closed the door, leaving Qin Xiu alone with a livid face. She turned around and saw Zhang Tieniu walking over from a distance. She immediately put on a flowery smile and walked over.
"Brother Zhang, have you seen that scholar?" Qin Xiu glanced at the front door of Li's house, "That's the scholar named Feng, the one whom sister Qingyou stayed overnight with."
Seeing Zhang Tieniu's face turning pale with anger, Qin Xiu finally let out some of the breath he had been holding in his chest. However, he accidentally saw him walking to the door of Li's house, and the breath he had not yet finished was blocked in his chest again.
As soon as Li Qingyou walked into the yard, Zhang Tieniu came. Since the two had a half-red face that day, this was the first time they had faced each other, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.
"I see you've been quite free these past two days. Isn't the office busy?" Li Qingyou was the first to break the silence. After all, Zhang Tieniu was not an outsider, and she didn't want to cause too much trouble.
This was a normal greeting, but in Zhang Tieniu's ears, it sounded like he had nothing to do, so he came to her to annoy others when he had time.
The anger that had been accumulating in my chest for many days suddenly rushed up.
Even the poor scholar can come, so why can't he come?
He swallowed the words that came to his lips. Even though Qingyou looked soft and weak on the surface, she had a stubborn temper underneath. Especially since the two of them had been having such a quarrel recently, he didn't dare to show off his temper again.
"I'm here to talk to you about Uncle Li and Auntie." Zhang Tieniu stiffly changed the subject.
