Although Li Fugui knew that Xiao Chunhua went to Jiujiu to ask for an explanation and was rebuked by Jiujiu, Li Fugui was a little unhappy. However, his thoughts about Jiujiu didn't decrease at all.
After all, there was only Jiujiu, such a beautiful girl, as long as one was a man, who wouldn't be tempted.
But now, such a good girl was taken by Huang Yixiao, a poor man. How could Li Fugui be reconciled?
In terms of looks, he had red lips, white teeth, and delicate features. He was many times better than Huang Yixiao. In terms of family background, he was extremely wealthy. He could easily turn the poor Huang Yixiao into dregs. Even though both of them were Elementary Scholars and could barely fight to a draw, no matter how he looked at it, he was much better than Huang Yixiao.
Li Fugui couldn't take it lying down no matter how he thought about it. He had the looks, the wealth, and even the knowledge, but he didn't get Jiujiu. Instead, Huang Yixiao, who couldn't compare to him in any way, snatched her away.
As a matter of fact, not long after he went out, he directly went out to find Jiujiu to ask for an explanation.
In Li Fugui's view, a beautiful and delicate girl like Jiujiu should naturally be married to a man like him, who had good looks, wealth, and knew how to cherish the fairer sex. Now that Jiujiu and Huang Yixiao were engaged, Huang Yixiao must have used some tricks to make Chen Changsheng betroth Jiujiu to him. Jiujiu's heart must be unwilling. He must rescue Jiujiu and let Jiujiu get away from Huang Yixiao's evil clutches.
Li Fugui changed into his own exclusive equipment, took the hairpin he saw in the jewelry store last time, and stepped to find Jiujiu.
Although Jiujiu and Huang Yixiao were engaged, Jiujiu still had things to do, such as harvesting pigweed.
Although Huang Yixiao would appear most of the time and take the initiative to harvest pigweed for her, and then send her home to cut the pigweed for her before leaving, it was inevitable that something unexpected would happen. Today, Huang Yixiao was busy and couldn't rush over. Without waiting for Huang Yixiao, Jiujiu went to harvest pigweed by herself.
During this period of time, Jiujiu had been secretly practicing martial arts. Although she wasn't very good, she could still harvest pigweed and walk on mountain roads.
Jiu put the basket aside, Jiujiu picked up the sickle and began harvesting pigweed.
In the end, after a while, Li's unpleasant and ear-piercing voice came from behind her.
"Jiu, how have you been recently?" Li pretended to be affectionate.
Jiujiu stood up, twisted her stiff neck, and turned to look at Li Fugui.
Li Fugui was wearing his signature white satin clothes, his hair was fixed with a jade hairpin, and he held a folding fan in his hand. When he saw Jiujiu looking over, he quickly waved the folding fan, and two strands of hair that could be left behind by his ears floated around with his movements.
Li Fugui pretended to look suave, and looked as if he was the most handsome person in the world.
Jiujiu blinked, and said, "Young Master Li's hand has recovered?"
A few days ago, when Xiao Chunhua found trouble with Jiujiu, Jiujiu knew that Li Fugui's shadow was definitely involved. Unfortunately, Li Fugui had been staying at home to recuperate, and she had no way to find trouble with him. Now that Li Fugui had personally come to her, Jiujiu opened her mouth to mock him.
When he heard Jiujiu mention the injury on his hand, Li Fugui's lips moved unnaturally. After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's already healed. Thank you for your concern, Jiu."
She had seen narcissistic people before, but she had never seen someone as narcissistic as Li Fugui. She had clearly used a mocking tone to ask if his hand had recovered. In the end, he thought that she was concerned. He was simply too narcissistic.
Jiujiu pursed her lips, "Don't, I wasn't concerned about your hand."
"Then what is this?" Li Fugui looked at Jiujiu in confusion.
Jiujiu looked into Li Fugui's eyes, and said word by word, "Aunt Li said that your injury was very serious, and our whole family couldn't afford to pay for it. I saw that your hand was fine, so …"
"So?" Several question marks appeared on Li Fugui's head.
Jiujiu looked at Li Fugui's eyes, which were filled with confusion, and said in a low voice, "I reckon that your injury should be somewhere else. Could it be your brain?" She was implying that there was something wrong with Li Fugui's brain.
As soon as Jiujiu said this, a muffled laugh came from behind her. Jiujiu turned her head and saw Huang Yixiao striding over. When he saw Jiujiu looking over, Huang Yixiao immediately walked over and took the sickle from Jiujiu's hand. He blocked Li Fugui from looking at Jiujiu and said, "Young Master Li, you don't have to worry about Jiu Niang's matters. Since your head is injured, you should rest more."
These words were just short of telling Li Fugui not to meddle in other people's business.
It was fine that Li Fugui was being bullied by Jiujiu, but being bullied by Huang Yixiao like this made him instantly unhappy.
When Jiujiu bullied him, he didn't say anything because he wanted Jiujiu. But who was Huang Yixiao?
Although he was also a scholar, his family was poor. He probably couldn't even take out a tael of silver. Now that he dared to bully him, Li Fugui's face instantly darkened.
Li Fugui's lips were red and his teeth were white. When his face darkened, it was especially obvious. Now that he was looking at Huang Yixiao with a face full of anger, he looked a little scary.
However, Huang Yixiao didn't care about Li Fugui's expression at all. He turned his head away from Li Fugui and bent down to help Jiujiu cut the pigweed.
Li Fugui was so angry that he wanted to die, but Huang Yixiao didn't even look at him. This was like punching cotton. Li Fugui was so angry that he wanted to die, but he couldn't do anything to Huang Yixiao.
Moreover, when Huang Yixiao came over, Jiujiu didn't even look at him. He stood there for a while, and when he saw that Jiujiu and Huang Yixiao didn't pay attention to him, he felt that he had nothing to lose and turned to leave.
After Li Fugui left, Huang Yixiao raised his head and looked at Jiujiu and said, "What did he come here for?"
Jiujiu was afraid that Huang Yixiao would have bad thoughts and hurriedly expressed her loyalty, "I didn't pay attention to him. Big brother Huang, I'm now engaged to you. In the future, I'll be a member of your Huang family. I swear, other than the words I scolded him just now, I didn't say a single word to him."
Jiujiu's anxious expression made Huang Yixiao, who was a little anxious just now, smile.
Jiujiu was so anxious to explain herself. It was clear that she cared about him. Huang Yixiao's irritable mood when he saw Li Fugui talking to Jiujiu was instantly alleviated. The gaze he used to look at Jiujiu was much gentler.
Huang Yixiao waved the sharp sickle vigorously, cutting the pigweed piece by piece. When he was almost done, Huang Yixiao tidied up the pigweed and put it into a basket. He carried the basket down the mountain in a very natural manner.
Jiujiu hurriedly followed behind. The two of them walked in tandem. Huang Yixiao turned his head and could see Jiujiu jumping like a little deer beside him. His mood was originally a little heavy, but now that he saw Jiujiu's cheerful appearance, Huang Yixiao couldn't help but smile.
