Chapter 161 So it was him!
Chapter 161 So it was him!
She chuckled, walked up to Wen Luozhi, took out the peach blossom hairpin, and presented it to her like a precious treasure, saying, "This is for Sister Luozhi."
Wen Luozhi took the hairpin and examined it carefully. Just when Zhou Yun thought she was going to accept it, Wen Luozhi smiled and handed the hairpin back to her.
"I may have to disappoint Xiaoyun, as I don't like peach blossoms."
She patted Zhou Yun's fluffy head with a look of regret.
It's not that she doesn't like peach blossoms; you can tell from the craftsmanship of this hairpin that it wasn't bought from a shop.
If this little doll doesn't know how to carve or polish, then it was most likely made by Zhou Shen.
How could she accept a gift from a man? Putting aside whether it was proper or not, if Helian Yue found out, he would turn the world upside down.
Zhou Yun's face showed visibly disappointment, but she still tilted her head back and asked, "Then what does my sister like? I'll give her something else."
If you don't like peach blossoms, then have your brother make orchids, plum blossoms, and lotus blossoms until Sister Luozhi likes them.
"Sister only likes this." Wen Luozhi's slender, fair fingers caressed the sachet at her waist, and she could faintly feel the jade button inside. The corners of her mouth slowly curved up.
She almost forgot that she was supposed to go to Jun'an Hall to pick up the letter today, and she wondered what the man had written this time.
Zhou Yun's disappointment became even more obvious. Sister Luo Zhi didn't just like the sachet; she just liked the person who gave it to her.
Wen Luozhi said a few words to her, but it was unclear whether she heard them. She only heard her say in a muffled voice, "I have to go help now, Sister Luozhi. You get some rest."
She left the room, but ultimately wrapped the peach blossom hairpin carefully and put it in her bosom.
Poor brother, he really has no chance with Sister Luo Zhi. Sigh!
(Suddenly remembered that viral video on Douyin a while ago, hahaha: Why do latecomers surpass the former? Because the former didn't compete or fight for anything!)
Wen Luozhi was not affected by this little incident at all. After writing the reply to Helian Yue that she had forgotten to give last time, she got up and went outside to get some food to go to Jun'an Hall.
She ran into Lin Huaizhi again just as she reached the door. Seeing that he wasn't walking as awkwardly as before, she thought he hadn't done that kind of thing!
Unlike before, this time Lin Huaizhi didn't approach her. Instead, he gave her an arrogant look and then rushed into Jun'an Hall first.
Wen Luozhi felt that he really had a serious illness. She hadn't said or done anything, so why was this bean sprout making such a fuss?
No sooner had she stepped into the clinic than Guo Wencai followed her in, slamming a silver note on the counter and shouting, "Where's the doctor?! Bring me a few doses of the best and most expensive tonics here. I need to give my brother a good boost!"
Guo Wencai still missed last night. However, he hadn't seen the young scholar for more than a month, and he had become much more skilled. However, the scholar was too weak and was not strong enough to play with.
He needs to be properly nourished so that he can have more fun!
Wen Luozhi looked over at the nouveau riche's tone and saw a short man with a fat head, big ears, and a greasy face sitting in a chair with his legs crossed, looking all high and mighty.
Following the normal treatment procedure, Jun Qianzi already had a general idea of what was going on when he learned that Lin Huaizhi needed to take tonics.
Haha, so this county magistrate's son is hanging out with this scholar.
When Lin Huaizhi sat down to take Wen Luozhi's pulse, he felt very uneasy because Wen Luozhi was also in the room.
Although he had already told Guo Wencai that they would be brothers after they came out, that clever girl was probably not going to notice anything amiss.
If he were to let her go back to the village and tell everyone about this, he would be utterly humiliated!
He looked in Wen Luozhi's direction and saw that she was looking around and not at all looking at him and Guo Wencai, which reassured him.
It's good that he didn't look at them! That way, it wouldn't have been so easy to find out! Because right now, Guo Wencai's disgusting pig's trotters are rubbing his waist!
Wen Luozhi was secretly overjoyed, because Yunhua had just whispered it to her.
This fat, pig-like man, short as a stump, is none other than the county magistrate's son! The legendary love interest of Lin Huaizhi in the academy!
She thought the combination of the two was truly an eyesore, and she really didn't know how Lin Huaizhi could bring himself to do it.
A guy has to be rich, handsome, and tall, right? This county magistrate's son is completely out of the question with the words "rich and handsome," so Lin Huaizhi must have been attracted to his wealth, right?
Thinking this, she glanced at the counter as if by accident and saw a fifty-tael silver note lying there all alone.
...She thought it was some kind of gold ingot, but it turned out to be just a small denomination silver note!
Only Lin Huaizhi would be interested in him!
In the original owner's memory, Lin Huaizhi was indeed quite learned. If he didn't study properly and instead spent his days doing these unorthodox things, even the best knowledge would be wasted.
Based on Lin Huaizhi's condition, Jun Qianzi actually prescribed several doses of medicine, mostly for conditioning.
He only spent half the silver; the rest went into Lin Huaizhi's pockets.
As Guo Wencai was leaving, his eyes remained fixed on Wen Luozhi. Lin Huaizhi, noticing this, quickly blocked his gaze and said, "It's getting late, Brother Wencai, let's go have dinner together."
Guo Wencai glared at Lin Huaizhi in dissatisfaction when he couldn't see the beauty anymore, but he couldn't show it since they were out in public.
If a passerby sees this and it gets back to his father, he'll be in deep trouble.
After the two finally left, Wen Luozhi felt that the air she was breathing had become cleaner.
Yunhua took out mugwort and fumigated the area. When she got to Wen Luozhi, she swept it around her several times, making her tears well up with sweat.
"Ahem...you little rascal, you're trying to kill me in broad daylight!"
Yunhua stopped when she heard her coughing from the smell and said righteously, "The way that county magistrate's son looked at Sister Luozhi was disgusting. He's sick, and I'm afraid he'll pass his illness on to her."
Wen Luozhi was speechless for a moment. Yunhua asked her to sit in a corner, and the two heads, one big and one small, huddled together to talk about the day they went to the Guo residence to see a doctor.
Upon hearing this, Wen Luozhi couldn't help but exclaim: "So hard to kill! So incredibly hard to kill! Aren't these two afraid they'll suddenly die one day, still so lovey-dovey?"
The county magistrate's wife is still throwing a tantrum at home. She only went back to her parents' home for a short while, and as soon as she returned, her son disappeared again.
"Didn't I tell you to keep a close eye on the young master? He's just recovered, and if anything happens to him again, I won't let you off the hook!"
She had already sent someone to Chunxiang Garden secretly; she couldn't think of anywhere else.
They were so sick before, yet they still haven't learned their lesson! They still dare to run around outside so recklessly!
Thankfully, nothing has reached his father's ears yet. If he knew, it would be even more painful than having the disease itself!
She paced anxiously back and forth in the main hall, and after a long while, the person she had sent out finally returned.
