As the sky gradually darkened, the guests left one after another.

Liu Siyu sent off wave after wave, and finally it was Qin Feng and his friends' turn.

Since Jiu Ye wanted to reminisce with Lai Xi alone, the others sat in the house drinking tea and waiting. When they saw Jiu Ye and Lai Xi come out, they said hello to Liu Siyu and prepared to leave.

Everyone else walked out of the yard, but Qin Feng stood there like a sculpture, motionless.

Liu Siyu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, wondering why Qin Feng stayed alone.

Just as I was about to speak, I heard Qin Feng say, "I want to talk to Siyu alone."

These words were spoken to Lai Xi. Lai Xi frowned slightly, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes when he looked at Liu Siyu.

Liu Siyu quickly smiled and said, "Let's talk here if you have something to say." As she spoke, she unconsciously took two steps closer to Lai Xi.

Suddenly she felt something strange. She didn't know since when, but she began to care about Lai Xi's feelings.

When Lai Xi saw Liu Siyu like this, his hesitation instantly turned into joy, and he generously rubbed Liu Siyu's long hair.

"I'll wait for you outside."

She and Qin Feng were the only ones left in the yard, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

Liu Siyu felt a little flustered.

When I first met Qin Feng, I felt that he was chivalrous and brave, so I gave him the greatest trust.

Later, Qin Feng's background made her feel uneasy, and unknowingly, she began to be wary of Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng only cared for and cared about her from beginning to end.

Liu Siyu felt a little confused and once asked Qin Feng if he had ever fallen in love with her.

Qin Feng looked righteous and said that there was only brother-sister affection, not love between men and women.

But Liu Siyu didn't believe that there was love without reason in this world. Qin Feng had no reason at all, so he treated her like a sister as soon as he saw her.

He met Qin Feng's deep eyes with a puzzled look, and tried to calm his mind.

"Brother Qin, what do you want to say?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly, and a hint of worry flashed in his sharp eyes.

"Stay away from Wu Chenyuan. He is not someone you can get close to."

Liu Siyu never dreamed that Qin Feng would say this, and asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Qin Feng raised his eyes, looked into the distance, and finally let out a sigh.

"Wu Chenyuan already has a wife. His wife is from a merchant family and is a good match for him."

"The two concubines have extraordinary family backgrounds. One was once engaged, but broke off the engagement after falling in love with Wu Chenyuan and was willing to be a concubine. The other one is even more legendary. She gave up being the legitimate wife and did everything she could to divorce and become a concubine for that kid named Wu."

Liu Siyu felt a little confused. This had nothing to do with her life. She didn't understand why Qin Feng brought this up.

Suddenly she remembered the scene when she was distracted today and stared at Wu Chenyuan, and her face turned red and she smiled awkwardly.

"Brother Qin, don't worry. How could I possibly have any thoughts about such a philandering man? Besides, our social statuses are so different from each other. How could he fall for a country girl?"

Qin Feng shook his head.

"He likes to hunt for novelties, and whenever he meets a special woman, he always wants to possess her. He also has two concubines who were redeemed from brothels. The Wu family did not agree to allow such lowly women to enter the family, so he brought them to Qinghe County and treated them as his concubines."

"Not to mention the concubines in the mansion who are not presentable. There are at least 10 of them, if not 8. If he hadn't been outstanding in business and had great skills, and hadn't become the pillar of the Wu family at such a young age, the elders of the Wu family would not have been vegetarians."

Liu Siyu was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped. She didn't expect that Wu Chenyuan, who usually looked gentle and modest, was actually a real stud.

It is true that you can only know a person's appearance but not his heart. I just don't know what kind of person Qin Feng is behind him.

Liu Siyu suddenly blinked her big eyes curiously.

"Brother Qin, you...you won't..."

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Liu Siyu couldn't help but wonder, Qin Feng often hangs out with Wu Chenyuan. Will he be influenced by that playboy and become promiscuous?

Qin Feng seemed to be able to see through Liu Siyu's thoughts and chuckled.

"If you want to know about my backyard, you will know it naturally when you go to Cangzhou when I get married."

Liu Siyu's smile was a little stiff. She just asked casually, but Qin Feng unexpectedly counterattacked her.

She pursed her lips and said unhappily, "Forget it. If you have nothing else to do, you should go back as soon as possible. They are all waiting outside."

Qin Feng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but still reminded worriedly:

"As for the workshop, you only need to focus on this part of the village. I'll be there outside. As for that kid named Wu, it's best not to have any contact with him alone."

Liu Siyu felt warm in her heart and could feel that Qin Feng's words were sincere.

He responded, "Don't worry."

But I was a little worried in my heart. Wu Chenyuan likes to hunt for novelty, so it seems that I should let him come to the village less often in the future.

The reason why so many women are so devoted to him must be that, apart from his good looks, his methods of coaxing women are probably not simple.

If he were to move around the village more often, I'm afraid many of these country girls who have never seen the world would fall in love with him.

When Lai Xi entered the room, he saw Liu Siyu's face full of worry, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong? What did Qin Feng say?"

"Nothing," Liu Siyu didn't want to make Lai Xi worry.

But Lai Xi is not stupid, and the worry on Liu Siyu's face has already exposed her thoughts.

"Is there anything you can't tell me?"

Liu Siyu quickly regained her composure and smiled faintly, "Don't think too much." Meeting his inquiring gaze, Liu Siyu felt a little nervous.

She didn't know since when, but Lai Xi already had a place in her heart, and she began to care about his eyes, his expressions, his joys and sorrows.

Wu Chenyuan had nothing to do with her. If it was brought up at this time, Lai Xi would probably become suspicious.

I had to make up something random.

"It's about the workshop. Brother Qin said that there might be no income in the next few months and we have to add money. He asked me to be mentally prepared in advance."

Lai Xi heard that he was worried about money, and he relaxed his thick eyebrows and suggested, "Don't worry too much about this. I've already mentioned it to Master Jiu, and I want to set up a stall at the dock."

Seeing Lai Xi still thinking about this, Liu Siyu was overjoyed and asked, "Did Master Jiu agree?"

Lai Xi chuckled and scratched Liu Siyu's nose.

"When have I ever disappointed you with what I said? Jiu Ye said that there is an empty house at the dock, but the place is not big. We can go there anytime we want, and we don't even have to pay rent."

"Besides, it's almost April now. In just two months, the early-ripening peaches in our orchard behind the mountain can be sold. In addition to market days, we can also sell them at the dock. Don't worry too much about the money."
