Chapter 73
Chapter 74
Once the big thing is resolved, the rest will be easy to talk about.

Chao Yun still gave Sheng Xi a specific time to celebrate the New Year and come to the county government office on the [-]th to ask questions.For this reason, Chao Yun gave her a post with just the word "Chao" written on it.

Sheng Xi put the post away and saw that Chao Yun had nothing to explain, so he said goodbye and left.

I spent a lot of time here, and the sun was already setting in the west.The city gate was inevitably closed, so Sheng Xi put away her thoughts of walking around and walked straight towards the city gate.

At this time, Sun Qiang and his two men had finally sold out their prey and were driving the donkey cart to the bookstore at the gate of the city.

However, Sheng Xi arrived early, and just in time, she also wanted to buy two books for Shen Anhe and Sheng Guangyuan from the bookstore.One is to study, and the other is to relieve boredom, so that people will not get bored at home.

There is no need to buy "The Thousand-Character Essay". Shen Anhe silently read out the full text directly. It was neat and even better than the printed version.Recalling what Shen Anhe said casually at the time, Sheng Xi simply picked out "The Great Learning" and "The Doctrine of the Mean".

After paying the bill, Sheng Xi looked outside and didn't see his donkey cart, so he went back to the bookstore to read miscellaneous books.

Naturally, the shopkeeper wouldn't mind this, and even wanted Sheng Xi to take a closer look.He could clearly see the payment just now. The little girl looked plainly dressed, but she didn't hesitate at all when paying.The shopkeeper likes this kind of customer the most. Why?You can make the decision!

And just when Sheng Xi was obsessed with talking, another person stepped into the bookstore.The shopkeeper came out from behind the counter and greeted him warmly. After helping him choose two books, he let him read on his own.

As the man walked, he walked up to Sheng Xi. Just then, Sheng Xi raised his head, their eyes met, and the corners of their mouths twitched.

Sheng Xi thought: "We meet very frequently today. I must read the almanac next time I go out."

Liu Wenzhe bared his teeth: "Why did we meet this woman again! You can't step on dog shit for a day!"

Adhering to the principle of multiple friends and multiple paths, Sheng Xi took the initiative to greet Liu Wenzhe: "Hello, Mr. Liu."

Liu Wenzhe wanted to say "I'm not good", but he didn't reach out to hit the smiling man, and Sheng Xi did help him today, so he just grunted and agreed.

But he just agreed. He didn't plan to have any other contact with Sheng Xi. He would avoid it if he could, and turned around to leave.

However, before he could leave, Sheng Xi grabbed him.Because he pulled it so fast, he almost leaned back.

Liu Wenzhe cursed in his heart, but since this was a bookstore, he suppressed his anger and turned around to scold her.Unexpectedly, Sheng Xi pointed to the door and whispered to him: "Don't make any noise, your partner, uh, no, your fiancée, look, they are coming in!"

Liu Wenzhe's curse words got stuck in his throat, neither rising nor falling.He didn't want to listen to Sheng Xi's words, but his body was more honest than his mind and he immediately turned his face away.Then, he saw Song Weilan holding a young man in her arms and stepping into the bookstore together.

Liu Wenzhe's pupils shrank severely.

He knew this man.It was Song Weilan's cousin, named Cheng Song, whom he had just met today at the Song family.But at that time, he clearly remembered that Song Weilan and Cheng Song never said a word during the entire process. The two abided by etiquette and never even exchanged glances...

Liu Wenzhe turned his eyes to Song Weilan's hand holding Cheng Song, and tightened the corners of his mouth.

On the side, Sheng Xi looked at Liu Wenzhe with some concern.She shrank her paws, regretting her subconscious action just now. She only wanted to eat the melon, but when she reacted, she was shocked to realize that the person next to her was the red melon flesh!
It’s finished!Don't start fighting for a while, then should she stop it or not?There are many bookshelves in the bookstore, and the covering effect is good.Therefore, when Song Weilan and Cheng Song came in, they did not find Liu Wenzhe and Sheng Xi hiding behind the bookshelf.

At this time, Song Weilan was leaning against Cheng Song, saying sweetly that she wanted to give him another book.

Cheng Song naturally couldn't nod immediately, but after Song Weilan said it for the third time, he nodded in agreement.

Song Weilan was very happy, so when she was happy, she said some words out of her mind: "My cousin is still very good, he can read and write, and he will be tested for merit. He will have a bright future in the future, and he will be hundreds of times better than Liu Wenzhe!"

Cheng Song was modest and said that he was not as good as Liu Wenzhe.But Song Weilan said: "Cousin, you are too arrogant! How can you not compare with Liu Wenzhe! He is just the son of a merchant. He will never be able to obtain fame in this life. Even if there is a next generation in the future, it is hard to say whether he will have the opportunity to become an official. .That’s why he can’t compare to his cousin!”

After a slight pause, as if she thought of something, Song Weilan sneered coldly and then spoke again: "If dad hadn't said that there was someone in the Liu family who might be useful in the future, how could I have been engaged to Liu Wenzhe? But that was the future, who could Are you sure?"

As she spoke, Song Weilan felt aggrieved and pressed her chest against Cheng Song: "Cousin, go and tell dad if you can and don't let me marry Liu Wenzhe. You and I are in love, we are in love, and I just want to I don’t want to marry anyone but my cousin!”

Cheng Song could only comfort him at this time.It was impossible for him to break up his relationship with Song Weilan with Song County Prime Minister. This involved the entire Song family and the interests of each of their families. Even if Song County Prime Minister would agree, their family members would not agree.

Behind the bookshelf, Liu Wenzhe no longer listened to how Cheng Song comforted Song Weilan. At this time, his whole body was like a taut clockwork, and his face was particularly ugly.Across the rows of books, he stared at Song Weilan and Song Weilan with their eyes red and bleeding. If his anger could be turned into substance, he would probably have broken through the roof and rushed into the sky at this moment.

Sheng Xi quietly moved to the side, fearing that Chi Yu would be harmed.Although she had no feelings for this Young Master Liu, she encountered such a big drama today, and even if she had no feelings, she still had to sympathize with him.

Liu Wenzhe's eyes narrowed, and when he saw Sheng Xi trying to hide, he turned his head and looked over.

Sheng Xi: "..."

Liu Wenzhe glared at her hatefully, but he knew that what he was glaring at at this moment was not Sheng Xi, but Song Weilan and Cheng Song.But he still couldn't control his emotions and wanted to hate Sheng Xi for discovering this dirty thing.

Sheng Xi is very innocent.

But...she also understands.

Seeing that Liu Wenzhe's whole body began to tremble, Sheng Xi was worried that he would be angry.Sighing slightly, he could only comfort him in a low voice: "Master Liu, I can't blame you for this. You are innocent, so please be patient and accommodating!"

Liu Wenzhe: "!"

Taking a deep breath, Liu Wenzhe glared at Sheng Xi fiercely, and tried his best not to rush out and punch the lovers each.His eyes were downcast, and his originally gentle appearance turned a little ferocious because of his anger.But fortunately, he was under control.

After taking a deep look at Song Weilan and Cheng Song, who were still in love with each other, Liu Wenzhe suddenly turned his head and said to Sheng Xi, "Just pretend you didn't see what happened today, do you understand?"
