Chapter 27 Protagonist’s Halo
Xiao Li: "..."
Xiao Li folded his arms and looked expressionlessly at the heroine who suddenly started acting again.
To be honest, if it were the end of the world, he would have been slapped to death.
This heroine is really more annoying than a fly.
He didn't do anything because he was injured before, and then he thought about the heroine's halo, so he still didn't do anything.
But not doing it doesn't mean I don't want to kill her.
However, he didn't say anything. Lu Youfu felt that he was feeling guilty because his thoughts were guessed, so he didn't say anything, which further encouraged her arrogance.
"Fourth Brother Xiao, I believe you are not that kind of person. You just got carried away for a moment. Don't worry, I will never spread this matter. You are still the most promising scholar in our Yangliu Village. In the future..."
Seeing that she was getting more and more excited, Xiao Li just sneered.
"Lu Youfu, have you forgotten what I said? Do you really think I'll be afraid of you just because of a prince whose whereabouts are unknown?"
Lu Youfu was talking excitedly when he was suddenly interrupted by him, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Hearing Xiao Li's tone that showed he didn't take her seriously at all, she was extremely angry.
"Xiao Li!"
"What? You don't want to call me Fourth Brother Xiao anymore?" Xiao Li looked at her sarcastically, "Are you unable to continue acting?"
"How could you do this to me!" Lu Youfu's chest heaved violently with anger.
In order to highlight her good figure, Lu Youfu deliberately cut her clothes to be close-fitting, which can clearly outline her exquisite curves.
In addition, she has an extraordinary demeanor, a pretty face, and is well dressed. She even has golden earrings hanging on her earlobes.
She was already the center of attention, and now, because of her ups and downs, she attracted the attention of almost half of the men on the street.
Some people even swallowed their saliva violently, but Xiao Li didn't even want to look at her.
"Is there anything I can't do? Or are you some kind of princess? Do you have to do everything for me?"
"You!" Lu Youfu wanted to say something, but was frightened by his cold eyes. "You..."
"Me what?" He looked Lu Youfu up and down, and said with disdain, "I must have been really blind before, otherwise how could I not see such a big white lotus? And it smells like green tea."
Lu Youfu didn’t know what the words “prosperous white lotus” and “green tea flavor” meant, but he could tell from Xiao Si’s tone that they were definitely not good words!
It was obvious that Xiao Si loved me until his death. Even though he knew that I and Zhou Yucheng had deceived him, he still told me the secret of the space and gave the jade pendant to me instead of Zhou Yucheng.
He was obviously afraid that Zhou Yucheng would change his mind and treat him badly after his death, so he gave the things to himself so that he could have something to protect himself.
Unfortunately, with Xiao Si's death in his previous life, the jade pendant also disappeared.
Fortunately, Zhou Yucheng was watching secretly at that time, otherwise I would have had no one to express my suffering.
But it turns out that she has always had a good eye for men.
Whether it is Xiao Si or Zhou Yucheng, they both have a special liking for her.
The only pity was that because she had been married before and was the wife of Zhou Yucheng's subordinate, all the civil and military officials in the court did not approve of her becoming the prince's consort.
So even when Zhou Yucheng became emperor, he still had no title or status.
Fortunately, she remained in favor and was the happiest and most envied woman in the entire harem.
If it weren't for those bastards' powerful tactics, I wouldn't have been framed to death.
If she had the chance to do it again, she would never make the same mistake again!
Whatever she didn't get in her previous life, she will get back in this life!
The Crown Princess, the Crown Princess, the Queen, all of these belong to her!
Thinking about the future, the fear in Lu Youfu's heart gradually faded away, and even a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.
"Whatever you say, everyone knows how obsessed you were with me. I really don't want you to continue doing something I don't like."
"Ha!" Xiao Li was almost pissed off by her. "Then you'd better not show up in front of me, because not only do I dislike your clumsy tricks, I also don't like you, this white lotus of the prosperous age."
"If you don't want to come, then don't come. Who wants to see you?" Lu Youfu said this without hesitation.
Only after they walked away did she realize why she had listened to him.
Ever since Lu Youfu said that, Xiao Li hadn't seen her again for a long time.
I have to say that the protagonist's halo is indeed powerful.
Otherwise, this vicious and stupid heroine would probably be cannon fodder before surviving three chapters.
Before the first volume of Journey to the West was officially sold to the public, Xiao Li stayed in the village and gradually wrote down the rest of the content of Journey to the West and put it in his space.
Before the bookstore reopened, Shen Congzhou specially asked the new housekeeper of the Xiao family to come to the village to talk to him about this matter, and also sent him a lot of rice, flour, grain and oil.
Because the butler came in a carriage, he was discovered as soon as he entered the village.
Many people in Yangliu Village had never ridden in a horse-drawn carriage, let alone an ox-drawn cart. When they saw the horse-drawn carriages that only the rich families owned, they couldn't help but follow behind.
"This carriage is really magnificent!"
"Of course not! This is a carriage! Only wealthy families can afford it, so it shouldn't be quite impressive, right?"
"Why did this carriage come to our Yangliu Village? Who did you say they were looking for?"
"Who knows this?"
"Someone go and ask."
But before they could ask, the carriage stopped and the old man driving it looked at them with a smile on his face.
"I wonder if Mr. Xiao's home in Yangliu Village is here?"
"Yes, Xiao Xiucai is from our Yangliu Village, over there by the river. I'll take you there." A clever child of eight or nine years old had already run ahead, "This way, Fourth Brother Xiao's home is over here."
"Then I'll trouble you, little brother." The old man thanked him, then smiled and bowed to the others, "Thank you all too. I have something else to talk to Mr. Xiao about, so I'll take my leave now."
"Hey, hey, hey, you, take care!"
Most of the villagers were simple and honest, and had a natural awe for those from wealthy families. They stopped in embarrassment when they heard this.
The carriage stopped at the door of the Xiao family. The housekeeper got off and took out two copper coins from his pocket and gave them to the child who led the way.
"Sorry to bother you, little brother. I don't have anything to thank you with. Take this copper coin and buy yourself some candy!"
"No, no thanks!" Ergou refused with a red face, and quickly shouted towards the Xiao family, "Fourth Brother Xiao, someone is coming to see you in a carriage!"
Xiao Li had actually heard their voices a long time ago, but he had never seen the butler before, and there was nothing wrong with their conversation. He just thought they were passing by, but he didn't expect that they were actually looking for him?
Bao Ge'er, who was particularly attached to him because of the story of Journey to the West, stopped listening to the story when he heard the voice, and pulled Xiao Li out the door.
"Fourth brother, fourth brother, it's Brother Ergou."
"Well, Fourth Brother knows."
Xiao Li now remembers the child Ergou. His family is an outsider and has only a few acres of thin land in Yangliu Village. After paying taxes throughout the year, it is not enough to make a living, so they can only rely on the little things in the mountains to survive.
Probably last year, Ergou's father went up the mountain and encountered a blind bear. When he was running away, he panicked and fell, hitting his head and died.
This is also the reason why Baoger ran back crying on the day he first arrived.
He took Baoger's hand and opened the door. He saw a dark and thin child standing by the door. He looked about eight or nine years old, with dark and bright eyes.
When he saw Baoger, Xiao Li obviously noticed that the child's eyes brightened.
"Baoer."
"Brother Ergou!"
Xiao Li raised his eyebrows and looked at the two of them meaningfully.
Bao Ge'er subconsciously wanted to walk towards Ergou, but halfway through he suddenly remembered something. He quickly turned his head to look at Xiao Li and smiled sweetly at him.
"Fourth brother, is Baoer going out to play?"
"I thought you forgot about Fourth Brother!" Xiao Li rubbed the small tuft on his head, "Go ahead, play for a while and remember to come back."
"Yeah, Baoer knows!" After saying that, the little guy jumped to find Ergou.
Ergou held the man in his hand, then looked at him a little embarrassedly, "Don't worry, Fourth Brother Xiao, I will send Bao'er back safely."
Xiao Li nodded, "Go ahead."
After getting permission, the child wanted to restrain himself but still smiled brightly.
Not until they were far away did Xiao Li turn his gaze away and look at the butler waiting beside him.
When the other party saw him coming, he immediately introduced himself, "Sir, I am Niu Dahe, the housekeeper of the Xiao residence. Mr. Shen asked me to deliver something to you."
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom, then lifted the carriage curtain to reveal the contents. "These were all bought by Mr. Shen early this morning."
Xiao Li casually said as he opened the letter, "I see. Wait a moment, I'll take a look at what Shen Congzhou wrote in the letter."
"Sir, take your time. I'll move the things in first. Should we put them in the yard?"
"Just put it in the yard."
Shen Congzhou said in the letter that the three thousand copies of the first volume of Journey to the West had been prepared, and an auspicious day had been chosen according to the almanac, and the bookstore would reopen at the hour of Si the day after tomorrow.
In addition to that, he reported on what he had done in recent days, all of which were carried out according to what he had written before, and the results were gratifying.
After putting the letter into his sleeve pocket, Xiao Li started moving things with Niu Dahe.
Niu Dahe was very apprehensive at first, "Sir, you can't do this. Put it down quickly. Let me do the rough work."
Xiao Li just gave him a flat look and said, "This is Yangliu Village, we don't care about these things. I won't do these things with you once we leave the village."
Niu Dahe was obviously stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously and said "Oh", speeding up and trying to move as much as possible by himself.
However, he overestimated himself and underestimated Xiao Li.
What he thought would take a lot of effort to move was easily moved by Xiao Li in just two trips.
That was real white rice, a sack weighed at least 100 kilograms, and you took down a bag with one hand?
With this strength, if I were to carry a sandbag...
No, as a young master, why would you need to carry sandbags?
Just like what you said, this is your hometown, and everyone in the village has to work, otherwise why would you need to do anything?
Mr. Shen was right, their young master was no ordinary person, he was very powerful!
Because there was something else to do at the Xiao residence, Niu Dahe drank a bowl of water at the Xiao family, and after getting Xiao Li's reply, he drove the carriage back.
Xiao Shugen, Li Jinhua and others heard a carriage coming to look for Xiao Li outside, and when they hurried back home, they still couldn't see Niu Dahe.
Xiao Shugen trusted Xiao Li very much, and seeing that everything was normal with him, he was no longer anxious.
Li Jinhua can't do that.
She was a woman who had never seen the world. She was happy that the other party's arrival made Li'er proud, but she was also worried that the other party was here to cause trouble for Li'er.
With such conflicting feelings, she was so tired that she almost couldn't breathe and didn't dare to stop to rest.
Seeing someone, she quickly grabbed Xiao Li's hand and asked anxiously, "Li'er, who is looking for you? Are they here to cause trouble for us?"
"Don't worry, grandma. It's not a bad thing." Xiao Li patted the old lady's hand soothingly and took her into the main hall to see the pile of things inside. "He was sent by the bookstore owner to deliver something to me."
"This..." Li Jinhua looked in shock at the bags of rice and flour, half a head of pork, and the cloth that looked expensive to the touch...
Not to mention her, even Xiao Shugen's eyes widened. "Li'er, why would the bookstore owner send so many gifts for no reason? These things must cost a lot of money!"
Xiao Li used the same excuse again. He explained to them, "It's not that the storybooks are selling well and the bookstore owner is happy, so he gave me something. He's afraid that I won't sell my storybooks to the bookstore anymore."
The old man and the old woman looked at each other, looking confused. "Is that the Journey to the West story you told Baoer?"
"Yes." Xiao Li didn't feel guilty at all.
Even if his porting skills are really poor, the story of Journey to the West itself is classic enough!
When the Journey to the West novels become a big hit, wouldn't he, the bookstore owner, make money from them?
He didn't tell a single lie!
Because he behaved frankly enough, Xiao Shugen and Li Jinhua had no doubts and praised him for a long time with satisfaction.
During dinner in the evening, he told his family in advance that he was going to the city the day after tomorrow, and his family naturally would not object.
Only Baoger's eyes rolled around, and while Lincao was not paying attention, he got down from the small stool and hugged his thighs.
"Fourth brother, Bao'er is going too..."
"No, Bao'er is still young. Wait until you are older and then let your fourth brother take you there."
Lin Cao wanted to carry him back, but he hugged her thighs so tightly that Lin Cao didn't dare to force him for fear of hurting him.
Xiao Li patted his head in amusement and said, "If you don't let go, I won't let you go."
"Li'er!" Lin Cao said a little embarrassedly, "He's still young. It's inconvenient for you to do anything with him. Why don't you let him stay in the village?"
Baoger was about to let go, but when he heard his words, he immediately hugged his hand back, like a pendant.
Xiao Li pinched the little guy's increasingly plump face in annoyance, "It doesn't matter, he's not going to do anything serious, just looking around."
"This..." Lin Cao hesitated.
"Little Daddy~Daddy~Grandma~Grandpa~Baoer wants to go too~"
I have to say, Bao Ge'er knows how to act coquettishly.
At that moment, except Lin Cao, everyone else felt soft-hearted, especially Xiao Laosan, the father.
"Bao'er has never left the village since he was born. Since Li'er is willing to take Bao'er with him, Cao'er, you should let the child go."
Xiao Shugen and Li Jinhua also echoed, "Yes, Third Husband, let the child go. We are busy, and only Li'er has the free time."
"This..." Seeing that they were all looking at him, Lin Cao could only nod, "Okay."
"Little Daddy is the best!" Bao Ge'er immediately let go and ran towards Lin Cao, hugging his thigh and rubbing against it, making Xiao Li laugh. "During the day, you said Fourth Brother was the best, and now you're saying Little Daddy is the best. Bao'er, how many people do you think are the best?"
"Hmm..." The little guy buried his face in Lin Cao's legs, twisted his little butt, and said very cleverly: "They are all the best~"
Xiao Li patted his little butt and stopped teasing him.
The next morning, Xiao Li took him to the city on a swaying ox cart.
By the time they arrived at the door of Nan'an Bookstore, it was already noon and the bookstore had already opened its doors.
Shen Congzhou was standing at the door. When he saw Xiao Li mixed in the crowd, the corner of his eye twitched involuntarily.
Which owner is like him, not caring about the opening of his own shop, just like a passerby?
Xiao Li held Bao Ge'er, who was wearing new clothes, and touched his shriveled belly. "Are you hungry?"
"Baoer is not hungry!" The little guy was obviously saying one thing and thinking another.
Because he didn't get enough sleep, Bao Ge'er didn't eat anything at home. He only ate a boiled egg that Xiao Li brought him on the way. How could he not be hungry?
Xiao Li asked this question because he heard his stomach rumbling just now.
However, Xiao Li knew it all but didn't say anything. He touched his stomach and said, "What if Fourth Brother is hungry?"
"Well, well..." The little guy hugged his neck helplessly, "Bao'er doesn't have any money..."
"It's okay, Fourth Brother has it!" Xiao Li carried him away from the crowd and went to find a place to eat.
