Good luck every time

Li Ruyi asked him tentatively.

"Or do you want to study?"

Lan Yesheng's eyes lit up, but he immediately dropped his shoulders.

"Studying costs a lot of money, and I don't have any money, so forget it!"

He had met real scholars in the academy and listened to them counting their monthly expenses on their fingers. Lan Yesheng had no family and no one would pay for him.

Li Ruyi understood instantly and had a better understanding of why Lan Yesheng had been deceived.

"I can't afford to pay for your studies, so why don't you come to my shop and help with some odd jobs? I'll pay you as a handyman and help you find someone who's willing to hire a book boy or servant. You can find them slowly!"

After hearing this, Lan Yesheng instantly revealed a surprised smile.

"Really, Sister Ruyi?"

Li Ruyi nodded.

"Of course it's true. I'm sending you to a dim sum shop, and you can learn how to make dim sum. Even if you don't meet the right scholar to take you to study, you still have a skill!"

After hearing this, Lan Yesheng nodded vigorously.

"Don't worry, Sister Ruyi, I will definitely do my best!"

He was extremely tired of life in the orphanage, and if he had the chance to leave, he would not want to stay at all.

After hearing this, Li Ruyi stood up and went to find the manager of the orphanage.

The management here is loose and some children always leave.

But Lan Ye Sheng’s situation is different.

Li Ruyi assured them that there would not be much change in the food delivered in the future, and only then did they reluctantly agree to let Lan Yesheng leave.

Human nature has always been like this, there is no such thing as true love for each other.

Lan Yesheng followed Li Ruyi all the way and naturally noticed something strange.

Some people are born with a natural ability to understand the ways of the world, some can learn it later, but some people are not born with it and can only learn it reluctantly.

Li Ruyi still can't tell what kind of child Lan Yesheng is.

However, those who are familiar with the ways of the world have things they are familiar with, and those who are not familiar with them have things they are not familiar with.

Everyone has their own job, and the difference is not too big.

When Li Ruyi came out of the orphanage, he was no longer alone.

She also brought Lan Yesheng with her.

Lan Yesheng had a small bag in his hand, which contained some miscellaneous things.

Some of them were his parents’ relics, and some were small gifts he had received in the orphanage over the years.

What about grasshoppers made of straw, dragonflies made of bamboo...

These are all worthless things, but they embody all the expectations and goodwill a child has received since birth.

Li Ruyi didn't let him bring any clothes, so Lan Yesheng distributed the clothes to his close friends.

They agreed to see each other often in the future, and then they went their separate ways.

As Lan Yesheng walked away, he looked back every few steps, and only caught up with Li Ruyi in disappointment when he was out of the door and could no longer see anyone.

He has seen too many separations, and he also understands that after this separation, he may never see some people again in this life.

After Li Ruyi took Lan Yesheng back, they only stayed in the county town for one night.

She went to the pawnshop and bought two sets of old clothes that fit Lan Yesheng fairly well, and also bought him a roll of bedding.

The next morning, early in the morning, the group set out for the provincial capital at daybreak.

Han Shiyu sent them to the city gate, waited for the gate to open, and watched them leave before returning to the academy.

The carriage was carrying a lot of things and was not moving very fast. After running for a while, Li Ruyi knew that he would not be able to reach the provincial capital today, so he simply slowed down and took everyone to hide in the woods for a while in the shade during the hottest time of the day.

We stayed in a familiar shed at night.

Xiaoman used homemade medicinal incense. I don’t know what kind of medicine was put in it, but it smelled a bit like mugwort. The mosquitoes around scattered away, and even people felt drowsy after smelling it.

Li Ruyi was on guard and meditating not far away. There were ghosts howling and wolves howling in the forest at night, but this was an official road and there were very few wild animals running out. Only Lan Yesheng was so scared that he huddled into a ball.

The rest of the people who were used to living in Sanjia Village seemed not to hear anything and soon fell asleep.

In the second half of the night, Li Jixiang woke up.

She looked at Li Ruyi, who was sitting with his eyes closed in the moonlight not far away. She got up from her seat, rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked closer without tidying up her bedding.

"Ruyi, I'll keep watch! You go and have some rest."

When Li Ruyi heard her stand up, he had already opened his eyes.

"No, I'm used to it. I'll rest when we get back to the city tomorrow. But you should rest early. You'll still be busy for a few days when we get to the city tomorrow."

When you just move to a new place, it is inevitable that there are some adjustments to be made. Besides, Granny Ding only came once during the Chinese New Year, so she was a newcomer.

Her eyesight is not good, so there must be a lot of things that need Li Jixiang's care.

It can be imagined that Li Jixiang must have been very busy for a period of time.

"It doesn't matter to me. I'm used to doing those things all the time!"

After hearing this, Li Jixiang did not go back to rest, but sat down next to Li Ruyi.

"Oh, right! The matter between you and Brother Han..."

Li Jixiang had extra thoughts and also asked Li Ruyi.

Seeing that Li Jixiang didn't want to sleep, Li Ruyi didn't force her.

She also relaxed and chatted with Li Jixiang for a few words.

"We're both fine, what's wrong?"

Li Jixiang shook his head.

"No, I just want to ask, will you marry him in the future?"

Li Jixiang was a little curious. She knew Li Ruyi's predicament better than anyone else and was more worried about her future life.

"Not necessarily! We're fine as it is now, we'll talk about the future later."

Li Ruyi took on the blood feud of his master, while Han Shian was burdened with an obsession so serious that he could lose his life at any time.

The two of them are still just ant-like existences, and they don't have the strength to double themselves when combined. Marriage will eventually give way to more important things.

Moreover, getting married is not that important to Li Ruyi.

This is not like Acai and Li Shiwu. She has to live in the secular world and follow secular rules.

Whether it is Li Ruyi or Han Shian, they are both detached from the secular world and care more about whether they can stay together. The form is secondary.

Li Jixiang was a little surprised. This was the first time she heard something more unorthodox than not getting married.

"Then... that girl will suffer a lot! If too many people spread the news..."

Li Ruyi didn't find this offensive at all, she agreed calmly.

"Oh, it doesn't matter, just don't care!"

"No matter who you are in, there will always be gossip. There are always more people in this world who can't control their mouths than those who are upright and self-disciplined. If you live your life listening to other people's gossip every day, how can you have the energy to do your own things?"

Li Jixiang's mind became clear after hearing these words.

"You're right! However, there are still very few people who can do it after understanding the truth, so there is only you, Li Ruyi, in this world!"

Li Ruyi suddenly smiled and looked at Li Jixiang under the moonlight.

"Not many people dare to admit that they can't do something, so you are the only Li Jixiang in the world!"

The two sisters complimented each other and immediately smiled at each other. Their laughter was loud and wide, spreading far away and lasted for a while before dying down.

Li Ruyi took off the wine gourd from his waist.

"Sister, do you drink?"

Li Jixiang looked at the wine gourd and tilted his head to think about it.

“You can drink it too!”

Her eyes were curved with smile. She reached out to take Li Ruyi's wine gourd, uncorked it and smelled it. A rich fruity aroma wafted out.

“Mmm…it smells so good!”

After Li Jixiang finished speaking, he took a sip.

Fruit wine is still wine after all. The spicy, sweet taste with a slight sour taste spread from Li Jixiang's lips and teeth to her stomach in an instant, and rushed through her with a hot and stimulating feeling. When Li Jixiang relaxed her frown, her forehead was already slightly sweaty.

She stuck out her tongue.

"so spicy!"

Li Ruyi smiled happily, she liked looking at her elder sister's current appearance, no longer complaining about herself, no longer carrying others on her back, learning to feel the world and experience different things.

Not far away, Xiaoman turned over and over again in discomfort.

Li Jixiang heard it and turned to look.

"Did we disturb Xiaoman's sleep?"

Li Ruyi smiled and shook her head.

"She's been awake for quite a while! She probably wants to have some wine, too."

Xiaoman sighed, resigned herself to her fate, climbed up, and walked to her two sisters.

"I'm not asking for a drink, it's just that you two are making too much noise!"

Li Ruyi raised her eyebrows and reached out to take the wine gourd, but her movements were a little slower than Xiaoman's. The next moment, the wine gourd was already in Xiaoman's hands.

After taking a big gulp of fruit wine, Xiaoman's face turned red and he burped.

Li Jixiang suddenly remembered something!

"You are so good, Li Meiman! I was wondering why the wine jars at home were empty so quickly, did you secretly drink all of them?"

Li Jixiang was not stupid. Looking at the little girl's skilled expression, he knew that the girl must have been stealing wine from home to drink for no reason since she came back from drinking too much last time.

Xiaoman raised her eyebrows.

Can this be admitted?!

"Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand! Why do I need to steal the wine from home? Right? You must have misunderstood!"

She said it was a misunderstanding, but Li Jixiang didn't believe it at all. He turned around, picked up a branch from the ground and chased after her.

Seeing this, Xiaoman had nothing to understand, so he turned around and ran, running farther away.

The master must not know about this, otherwise the old man and the young man will definitely beat her together!

Li Ruyi sat aside and watched the two sisters fight.

The light of day slowly spread out in such an atmosphere. After dawn, Li Ruyi continued to drive towards the provincial capital.

When they returned to the city, Han Shian was waiting for them in the yard.

The college entrance examination was approaching, and no matter how confident he was, he could not neglect his studies.

With so many people suddenly showing up, there's always going to be some chaos.

There were not enough rooms at home, so they were divided up. My eldest sister and Grandma Ding had one room, Li Ruyi and Xiaoman had another, and the rest of the people squeezed in and lived there temporarily.

Lan Yesheng was arranged to live in the room with Li Er and Han Shian.

There are not many people he is familiar with, Han Shian is one of them, and Li Er is also one of them.

It's not bad for the three of us to live together.

However, after Li Ruyi arranged him and the other two children to be with Li Shijiu, she no longer asked about them.

Since she was planning to go to Quzhou County, she couldn't go there empty-handed.

Manpower, goods, channels...

She has none of them.

The most important thing is that she cannot decide this matter by herself, she also has to find a way to convince her financial backer, Qin Huanzhang, who has not yet been secured!

Qin Huanzhang's wedding date is approaching, so he has not been leaving the house during this period.

There are many rules in wealthy families, and the eldest daughter has to pass through three or four doors when she goes out.

Each of these doors has its own secrets that must be explained.

Her parents, grandparents, relatives who stared at her, and other families who were jealous of her.

Li Ruyi is on the same boat with her for the time being.

Li Ruyi also faced the same dilemma she faced.

Women can better understand the difficulties of other women, not because they are more sensitive, but because they all have similar pains.

Qin Huanzhang has money but cannot spend it, and Li Ruyi has ability but cannot find the money. They are the same!

Qin Huanzhang could still buy some shops and earn some profits.

But Li Ruyi could only move forward step by step, without taking a wrong step.

Qin Huanzhang is a smart person. She knows clearly that she and Li Ruyi are the most suitable combination.

One has money but no one, the other has ability but no money.

And because of secular vision and contempt of the world, they are tightly bound together.

Li Ruyi had no choice but her.

Qin Huanzhang knew very well that if Li Ruyi was willing to be a dog for others, he would not have struggled in the cracks and survived until this day!

The two met again, still in Zhuangyuan Building.

However, the Zhuangyuan Building has been much quieter in the past two days than in the previous period of time.

How confident do you have to be to feel that sharpening your sword before the battle is not important?

The two sat down in the same room as last time.

Li Ruyi watched Qin Huanzhang's maid busy helping her spread the mat, put out the teacups, and take off the veil...

This time, Li Ruyi finally had the little girl with great martial arts skills accompanying him.

However, this "girl" is not that "girl". This is not Li Ruyi's servant, but Xiaoman, who was brought by her to see the world.

She sat upright below Li Ruyi, quietly watching Qin Huanzhang's maids busying around.

The control over the body of a young martial arts master is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Coupled with the dual training of Granny Ding and Li Ruyi, Xiaoman's rules and etiquette are first-class among many powerful families in Beijing.

In this way, she did not embarrass Li Ruyi. Instead, when Qin Huanzhang noticed her, he looked at her twice more.

"This is my little sister. She used to help me with some trivial matters. She just moved to the capital city a few days ago. I brought her here for Miss Qin to see."

Li Ruyi helped Qin Huanzhang by saying this.

After all, it is the boss who pays the money.

Of course, once you get the money, you may behave differently.

Qin Huanzhang smiled dignifiedly and gave a compliment from the bottom of his heart.

"Miss Li's sisters are all very pretty, and they are a real pleasure to see."

Almost no one in the room cared about this kind of compliment.

Qin Huanzhang was not a great beauty, but she had a dignified and steady temperament, and it was obvious at first glance that she was being trained to be the mistress of the house.

For such people, appearance is just the icing on the cake; family background and intelligence are the foundation of their existence.

Li Ruyi and Xiaoman didn't care even more. Li Ruyi had enjoyed the benefits of her good looks, but was also trapped in her own world by these benefits.

Xiaoman is different from others.

After all, she is Mr. Xiaoman, who has been self-proclaimed as invincible in the village since she was a child. She is a ruthless person who will fight even if a dog bites her. If she really cares about her face and leaves such a big weakness to the enemy, how can she win the battle! ?
