Chapter 340: Jingyuan Poetry Meeting (Part )
Last time, we talked about how Wei Le taught Xiang Ying a lesson with mysterious means, but this woman did not give up her pursuit of Master Wei. So what means will she take next? Let's read on.
Li Yi returned to the inn to continue reading. When the waiter brought him lunch, he hugged Li Yi's thigh and said, "Master Wei, will Captain Xiang come to trouble me again this time?"
Li Yi patted the waiter on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You think too much."
The waiter just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he heard Master Wei say, "There will be more and more people looking for trouble with you, but don't worry, there will be no danger. If there is a situation you can't handle, just play dead or push it onto me. Do you understand?"
The waiter said with a sad face: "Master Wei, why don't you change inns?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "If you change inns, you'll be doomed! Xiang Ying will not let you go. The least you can do is leave you disabled."
The waiter said sadly, "I am afraid of losing my life now! Master Wei, you are a tall tree that attracts the wind, but the key is that you have deep roots! But we, the rootless grass, don't have that ability! Master, I beg you, please show me a way to survive."
Li Yi nodded and said, "That's right. Then, if someone comes to see me next time, you can tell them that I..." Li Yi's words were interrupted by a knock on the door. He winked and the waiter went to open the door.
The result was that blood was seen when the door was opened. What you fear will come true. The person who came was Xiang Ying! This girl cried for a while at Jing Xin's place and adjusted her mood. She decided to have a good chat with Master Wei this time, so she appeared here.
Seeing that it was the waiter who opened the door, Xiang Ying frowned and asked, "Is anyone there?" The waiter nodded, and Xiang Ying waved her hand. The waiter immediately ran downstairs as if he had been granted amnesty.
Xiang Ying walked in without any hesitation, sat down opposite Li Yi and asked, "Tell me, what do you want in exchange for marrying me?"
Li Yi looked puzzled and asked, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? Didn't I tell you that I won't marry you? You're not my type."
Xiang Ying said disapprovingly: "I'm not a mean-spirited, petty-minded woman, why don't you like me!"
Li Yi shook his head and sighed, "Will the poetry gathering still be held?"
Xiang Ying nodded and said, "Yes, I will do it especially for you."
Li Yi said disdainfully: "You? Do you have that ability, you crude warrior!"
Xiang Ying said unhappily: "You are much better than me, aren't you also..." But looking at Wei Le holding the scroll in his hand, she couldn't say the rest of the words.
Master Wei glanced at Xiang Ying, who showed no intention of leaving, and said, "Are you not planning to leave?"
Xiang Ying said: "If you don't give me an explanation, I can't leave!"
"Is this relying on me?"
Xiang Ying didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, she nodded proudly and said, "Yes! I will marry you!"
Li Yi sighed and said, "It's up to you. I've made my words very clear. I won't say any more."
Xiang Ying poured herself a cup of tea and nodded, "I can't care so much, I won't give up! Don't forget that I am Tieshan!"
Li Yi exhaled a breath of turbid air and stood up and asked: "Who is the person who helps you organize the poetry meeting?"
Xiang Ying also stood up and said, "It's my good sister Jing Xin, why are you asking this?"
Li Yi nodded and said, "Come on, accompany me for a walk and buy some gifts."
Xiang Ying asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Why buy a gift? I'm just attending a poetry reading, do I need a gift? It's not like I'm going on a blind date!"
Li Yi said, "It's your first visit. If you don't greet me, wouldn't that be a breach of etiquette? I told you that you are rude, but you still refuse to admit it! You and Miss Jing are good sisters. If someone helps you, why don't you show some appreciation?"
Xiang Ying said, "Why do we need those empty formalities? We are real friends!"
Li Yi pushed the door open and walked out and said, "Will you come with me?"
Xiang Ying nodded and said, "Of course!"
So the two of them came to the street market to buy gifts, Li Yi walked in front and Xiang Ying followed behind. Li Yi asked: "Miss Jing, what are your hobbies?"
Xiang Ying said without hesitation: "She likes Li Xiuyuan's poems."
Li Yi, who was originally worried about what to buy, laughed. He didn't expect his poems to be spread to Western Chu. This is the case of searching for something without any effort. Li Yi asked, "Who is Li Xiuyuan?"
Xiang Ying began to talk about Li Yi's deeds at length. Anyway, she heard it from Jing Xin.
Li Yi smiled and said, "Miss Jing is a talented and romantic person who likes to talk freely?"
Xiang Ying shook her head and said, "No, Jing Xin said that Li Xiuyuan is definitely not a lecherous man, but a very infatuated man! He is unwilling to join a famous and powerful family. He has no background and no backing, so he is talented but cannot be cultivated. He can only be a small music official."
Li Yi almost burst into tears when he heard this. My parents gave me life and Jing Xin knows me very well. I, Li, am really the most infatuated person in this matter! It is hard to find a soulmate. Li will definitely not let Miss Jing down!
Li Yi turned around and said to Xiang Ying, "I've thought about it. Miss Jing has a prominent family background and doesn't need anything. I can just buy some dried fruits and candied fruits. Now you can accompany me for a walk." It didn't take long to buy dried fruits and candied fruits, so they were all bought quickly. Li Yi threw all the things to Xiang Ying, and he was left with nothing.
Xiang Ying said unhappily: "Master Wei, it's not fair for you to do this. Why should I carry things for you? I'm not your subordinate."
Li Yi smiled and said, "You are my defeated opponent."
Xiang Ying threw the dried fruit candied fruit aside and said, "After all, I am the second daughter of the Xiang family. Although I don't regard myself as a rich lady, you can't treat me as a servant!"
Li Yi glanced at Xiang Ying and reached out to pick up the scattered dried fruits. The candied fruit that fell on the ground was naturally inedible. Li Yi borrowed a broom from the nearby shop, cleaned the street, bowed and apologized, and then went to buy another portion of candied fruit.
Xiang Ying watched him getting angrier and angrier. Although she didn't think it was a big deal and wasn't afraid of being embarrassed, Li Yi had his own purposes for doing this. On a busy street, the second daughter of the Xiang family had an argument with a handsome man, and the candied fruit she had just bought fell to the ground. The man swept the street in public.
Some people may have guessed that Li Yi is building momentum. He is building momentum for himself. He brought Xiang Ying out just to build momentum. As for what exactly he wants to do, it will be revealed slowly later.
On the way back, Li Yi did not talk to Xiang Ying again, like a couple who had just had a quarrel, but Li Yi would occasionally check to see if Xiang Ying was following him, so that bystanders could see that they were together. Back at the inn, Li Yi ignored Xiang Ying and went up the stairs.
Xiang Ying couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Hey, what are you doing? Why don't you speak clearly? Why do you want me to help you get your things?"
Li Yi turned around and asked, "You said you would marry me, so if you marry me, who will be the head of the family? Do you have the final say in the family, or do I have the final say?"
Xiang Ying immediately turned into a gentle little lamb when she heard this, and whispered, "Of course you have the final say."
Li Yi smiled and said, "I don't think you can do it. You said you are not a young lady, but you have never had the concept of following your husband after marriage. Could it be that the Xiang family wants to recruit a son-in-law?"
Xiang Ying quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, no, it's not like that. I haven't told my family about our relationship yet. If you are willing to marry me, I will do whatever you want me to do!"
Li Yi sneered and said, "I don't want to, so Miss Xiang, please don't bother me anymore! I beg you!" Li Yi bowed to Xiang Ying and then turned back to the house. This scene was naturally seen by many people. Xiang Ying looked around, stomped her feet, and flew away.
When the waiter brought dinner to Li Yi, he was so impressed: "Master Wei, you are really amazing! Commander Xiang, Lord Xiang, not to mention her family background, no one dares to mess with her in Baidi City, and you dare to say such words in front of so many people, I am really impressed!"
Li Yi waved his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. No matter how powerful I am, no matter how prominent my family background is, I can't just bully others by taking advantage of my power!"
The waiter pursed his lips and said, "Only you, Master Wei, can control her. If it were someone else, they would have died countless times!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry about her. Help me find a carriage tomorrow and take me to the Jing family's villa."
The waiter scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
Li Yi squinted at him and asked, "Are you taking money again?"
The waiter waved his hand and said, "How dare I? I dare not charge you any money. But Captain Xiang has already arranged a car for you."
"This girl is really interesting. She didn't get angry even when I humiliated her in public. She's really stupid enough."
The waiter said in embarrassment: "So, could you please take the car arranged by Xiang Siwei tomorrow, Master Wei?"
Li Yi nodded and said, "Okay, I won't make it difficult for you. Go ahead. I'll call you after we finish eating." The waiter left with a smile...
The next day, Li Yi got up early. After all, he had to attend the poetry meeting, so it was necessary to get up early, wash and dress up, and then he pushed the door open in his Confucian robe. The carriage was already waiting at the door of the inn. Li Yi was about to salute and thank the driver, but he saw that the driver was Xiang Ying.
Li Yi turned around and glanced at the waiter, who had an awkward but polite smile on his face. Li Yi shook his head helplessly and bowed to Xiang Ying, saying, "Thank you, Miss Xiang."
Xiang Ying returned the greeting and said, "Get in the car." She was really giving face to Li Yi. You have to know that she is a well-known figure in Baidi City. If she drives the car herself, others will wonder who is in the car!
When they arrived at the Jing family's West City Courtyard, Xiang Ying stopped the car, lifted the curtain, and reached out to help Li Yi. This really made Li Yi feel helpless, and he began to wonder: What is this young lady up to? Is she trying to prove that she is willing to marry and obey her husband?
Xiang Ying knew Li Yi's skills, so why would she need help when he got out of the car? But this was Jing Xin's idea, so she agreed to give it a try. She felt that the effect was good, and Master Wei's reaction was very strong. She was secretly proud of herself.
The carriage stopped at the back door of the villa. This was also Jing Xin's special instruction. She said that she wanted to be the first to see what the man who could charm Miss Xiang looked like.
Li Yi got out of the car and saw that this was the back door. He asked, "Why did you take me to the back door?"
Before Xiang Ying could say anything, Jing Xin saluted and said with a smile: "Master Wei, right? Master Wei, it was me who asked Sister Xiang to..." Xiang Ying walked down the steps and came to the carriage. Li Yi turned his head just in time to hear the voice. We can use "a glance and a smile make her look charming" to describe a beautiful woman, but what word should we use to describe a handsome guy turning around?
Alas, Fenglin is not very talented and has limited abilities. I really can't think of any lyrics, so I can only recite a poem:
The Confucian robe is simple and elegant, and the autumn air is refreshing. The figure is upright and the spirit is clear.
From the side profile, he is already a guest in the clouds, and looking at his beautiful figure again, she looks sad.
I don't understand what's wrong with being banished as an immortal, and I was banished to the mortal world to be reborn.
It's a pity that the weather is not good, and a woman is worried about having a man like this.
Jing Xin looked at Li Yi in a trance, and Li Yi was also examining this "confidant".
Excluding Lady Tai'an, with Chang'e as the full score standard, if the full score is 100, then Jing Xin is at least 90 points, Shi Yu is 93, and Nangong Xue is 95. As for Xiang Ying next to her, give her 88 points, 3 points of which are encouragement points, encouraging her to introduce her good sister to herself.
The two looked at each other for a while, and Xiang Ying couldn't stand it anymore. She stood between them and said, "Have you two seen enough? Do you think I don't exist? Jing Xin, we have an agreement beforehand! He is mine! Don't have any bad ideas! I will hit you hard!"
Li Yi bowed and said, "I am Wei Le. I am sorry for offending you just now. Please forgive me, Miss Jing, for my impoliteness."
Jing Xin said "Oh" and quickly returned the greeting, "Mu Qing was also rude, please forgive me, Master Wei. I asked Sister Ying to bring you to the back door. First, Sister drove the car herself, and it would be inappropriate if others saw it.
Secondly, Mu Qing was also curious about what kind of strange man could fascinate her sister so much. Now that she saw him, he was really beautiful, heroic, magnificent, and outstanding, which made women ashamed and men sad. "
