How to work

In midsummer in July, at noon, you can see heat waves rolling on the ground.

Going out under such a big sun, you will sweat all over within a few steps. It is better to take a carriage, put ice in the carriage, and it will be much more comfortable along the way...

Lu Li put down the bowl, and hesitantly asked Shen Wansha beside him, "Master, is there still ice in the garden?"

"Yes..." Shen Wansha quietly looked at Zhao Zhu, and seeing him nodding secretly, he said firmly, "Yes!"

Lu Li's long eyelashes were slightly drawn, and the brows were slightly frowned, "This year's summer is hot, and it seems that it may be extended to the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's a favor for others to borrow the garden, and we are extravagant. It's not good to use up other people's ice storage..."

Their group, Shen Wansha is the young master of a rich family, He Lianyu is a thief who only steals good treasures, Zhao Zhu... Since his memory recovered a bit, he will not be short of money if he has a hand. I have only come to the garden for a few days, and I use ice like water. No matter how rich my family is, I can't afford such a waste.

Lu Li feels that even if there is ice in the garden, there must not be much. They have troubled the owner of the garden too much, if only because they want to be more comfortable...

Shen Wansha saw through his little friend's thoughts, laughed out loud, and patted Lu Li on the shoulder, "Don't worry, there are no other things in this garden, and you will definitely not have what you want!" Where is the princess!This garden belongs to King Ping, so naturally it belongs to Princess Ping. Looking at Prince Ping's virtue, I'm afraid I'll listen to you for the rest of my life. It's just a little bit of ice, so what are you afraid of!

Lu Li didn't understand, and looked back at him with doubts on his face, "Why?"

Zhao Zhu pressed his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, reminding Shen Wansha to speak carefully.

His movements were very natural, and his voice was not loud, which did not attract Lu Li's attention.

Shen Wansha swallowed immediately, his eyes widened, "That...hehe..." He changed his mind quickly, and soon had an idea, raised his chin and patted his chest, "Because the young master is rich! My father is a big The richest man in Xia, my mother is the Princess Yufeng, powerful and rich, she is so capricious! I have everything I want, and I can buy what I don’t have!"

After he finished speaking, he winked triumphantly at Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu was choked by him, and dared to pretend to be powerful and rich in front of him...

He Lianyu leaned over with a smile, "I can run errands for the young master! If the young master doesn't have cash for a while, I have a lot..."

Lu Li slapped his forehead, got it, these one and two are local tyrants!

The friends have said so, and it would be hypocritical to worry about it any more. He rubbed Shen Wansha's head, "I'm going to Huaifu, are you going?"

Shen Wansha hesitated.He wants to see the excitement of Huai Mansion, and he cares more about his little friend, but he still has to prepare a birthday gift for his little friend... He has to find a chance to avoid himself.After the case is over, everyone is afraid that they will go to Beijing, and we will be together every day, and it may not be possible to buy things quietly.

And He Lianyu was still pinching his hand under the table, reminding him of what happened just now...

Shen Wansha grinned and sighed, "You saved Huai Xin and helped Mrs. Hua so much, she shouldn't be estranged from you anymore, and her attitude should be much better. But she has a weird temper after all, if there are too many outsiders, maybe And I don’t talk well, so... I won’t go. But little Lizi, if Mrs. Hua is easy to talk to you, you can treat her as an elder, and you can deal with her easily. If she is not sincere, you can threaten her. How dare she Bully my friend Shen Wansha, and I will make her lose business in Xijing City!"

The young master's words can be described as domineering and caring, and Lu Li's heart warmed, "...well." He rubbed Shen Wansha hard, lowered his head, so that no one could see the emotion on his face, "Then I Get ready and go out, you and Zhai Xing have a good time."

After his figure disappeared in the main hall, Shen Wansha twisted Zhai Xing.

Reaching for the stars remained calm.

Shen Wansha sighed in disappointment, "It really is a dream. Little Lizi is so sensible and smart, how could he be moved by a mere word from me..."

He Lianyu touched the young master's face, a little regretful, he shouldn't have been tense just now, he should have screamed for pain... So he asked in a low voice, "Young master, pinch me again?"

Shen Wansha looked at He Lianyu in disbelief, he had never seen such a proactive begging for a fight!She really has a bad temper!He turned his head in disgust, and walked away humming a little tune with his little hands behind his back.

Zhao Zhu had a stinky face, very unhappy.

He borrowed the garden, he gave the ice, and the people were under his protection and doted on deeply... But he didn't deserve the credit at all, it was all given to the surname Shen!

But my daughter-in-law still has to hurt herself... Zhao Zhu snorted twice, and chased after Lu Li.

……

On the way to Huaifu, when he met a funeral procession, Lu Li's slender brows were slightly condensed, and he knocked on the wall of the carriage to stop the carriage.

The noon sun fell on his face through the light blue window screen, light and dark intertwined, the boy's pupils were dark, clear, and his skin was like jade, just like the bright moon in the night sky, Ren Yongye's filthy night, he stood still, quietly and persistently gave The light shines on all corners that can be seen.

Zhao Zhu's deep eyes flicked over the young man's satin-like hair and graceful neck, and finally settled on his slender white hand resting on the window screen.

The knuckles of this hand were not prominent, but slender and flexible. The light pink fingertips faced the hot sun, becoming more and more translucent, making Zhao Zhu's heart tickle, and he wanted to lick it.

Sensing Zhao Zhu's gaze, Lu Li narrowed his eyes lazily, and turned his head to look at him, "What are you thinking, huh?" The accent in the words was obvious, and the threat was obvious.

"I'm thinking of you—you are indeed my...friend, kind-hearted." Zhao Zhu changed the subject in a timely manner, took Lu Li's hand, gently kneaded it, and expressed his appreciation and admiration with a satisfied sigh. If you are together, I am afraid that you will be influenced."

Lu Li knew that Zhao Zhu did it on purpose, but he still couldn't help laughing, "Jiangyang Bandit, Zhao Zhu, could it be that you are Jiangyang Bandit? But the memory recovered, and I remembered everything?"

Zhao Zhu choked, "I'm not..."

"But you said that Bandit Jiangyang was influenced by me..." Lu Li blinked, his eyes full of interest.

I don't know if the sun is particularly strong, even if there is ice in the car, people are still a little hot from the sun, and the corners of Lu Li's eyes faintly blush, with a jade-like complexion, he looks even more plump and handsome.

Zhao Zhu's heart trembled, and he rushed over to hug him, and shamelessly said, "Yes, I'm a gangster, maybe I've done too many evil things, seeing Mr. 'little brother' is so stubborn, come and influence me! "

Lu Li kicked Zhao Zhu away, his ears turned red, "Get lost—"

This bastard can be in heat anytime, anywhere, that's enough!

His strength was nothing to Zhao Zhu, so he entangled him again with a wicked smile.

The mourning and music team was getting closer and closer, and the funeral music was heard in his ears. Lu Li pinched Zhao Zhu severely, "Don't move around!" He didn't even look at the timing!

Seeing that Lu Li was really angry, Zhao Zhu just hugged him tightly and remained still.

The long funeral procession slowly passed in front of the car.

The person who died seemed to be a woman. A man nearly 50 years old held the coffin with tears in his eyes and his throat rolling. , eyes full of reluctance.

Lu Li watched silently and gradually understood.It turns out that the one who died was the man who gave birth to his wife. The two were childhood sweethearts, and they stayed together when they were young. After they got married, they supported each other and created a huge family business.After getting rich, men don't bully each other, don't take concubines, all children are born by their wives, and they have a strong relationship with their wives.A man needs to be strong and tenacious. For decades, he has never mentioned his relationship with his wife. Now that his wife has passed away, his whole body seems to be broken. like him...

Lu Li sighed softly, "...It's so rare." In a patriarchal society where three wives and four concubines are legal, Lu Li was surprised and warmed to see such a loving man.No matter how the society is, what the law is, human nature will not change...

Zhao Zhu lightly bit the tip of Lu Li's ear, "I'm better than that man."

Lu Li smiled, "Would you be blinded by the flowers and choose one person to die?"

Zhao Zhu hugged his arm tightly, "If I choose you, I will live with you forever." His voice was heavy, as if he was saying an oath.

"Will you care about me and love me?"

"meeting."

"Will you be reluctant to let me suffer the pain of parting and die behind me?"

"I will take care of all the funeral affairs and carry you into the coffin with my own hands." Huangquan Road will not make you lonely.

"Will you be calm all your life, not lie to me, and not do anything I don't like?"

"……meeting."

Realizing that this response was a bit slow, Lu Li turned his head and blinked mischievously, "Do you have something to hide from me?"

Zhao Zhu's throat tightened, and he couldn't speak for a while.

He did have a very important matter to hide from Lu Li, but Lu Li is in such a good mood now, and he wants to talk to Mrs. Hua about his mother soon... it is not a good time.

Zhao Zhu had no choice but to press the button, and smiled slightly, "No." Let's talk about that matter later... This case is over, Mrs. Huai's business is over, and Lu Li has no other worries on their way to Beijing. Enough time……

What Lu Li said today was just because the funeral procession had some feelings, and they didn't want to force himself or Zhao Zhu to express their opinions.Their emotional journey has just begun, and the days are still long, so there is no need to worry.

Then he frowned and smiled brightly, "Yeah."

Zhao Zhu's heart was getting more and more ups and downs.

He had never felt this way in all his life.

At first, he inadvertently concealed his identity, which slowly turned into a bitter fruit now. The more he waited, the more disturbed he was, worried that Lu Li would be angry, the more worried he was, the more he couldn't speak out, and he subconsciously found reasons to delay.

He regretted it very much. If at the beginning...he could put aside his playful thoughts and talk to Lu Li honestly and get along well, what would happen?Lu Li doesn't like King Ping and is wary of King Ping, but their personalities are so speculative, even if the beginning is not very good, as long as he works hard, the result will be good.But he made an extremely bad start, and then subconsciously procrastinated the badness, making it roll like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger...

In the past, Lu Li only regarded him as a friend, and he might be angry for a while, and then it would disappear; now Lu Li has feelings for him... It is of course what he expects to be happy, but the standards of friends and lovers are different .

For the first time, Zhao Zhu knew what it was like to have green intestines when he regretted it. It was like drinking several cups of bitter wine, and his internal organs were all soaked in the bitter liquid.

Hearing Zhao Zhu's heavy sigh, Lu Li turned his head and asked him, "What's the matter?" It's annoying for this bastard to be in heat anytime, but if he has troubles and pains, he will worry about him even more.

"It's nothing..." Zhao Zhu rubbed Lu Li's head, trying to make his voice as relaxed as possible, "The funeral is far away, let's move on!"

Lu Li straightened Zhao Zhu's face, seeing that he was indeed not bad, full of energy, even his eyes were dark, and he was about to play a hooligan again... Then he pushed him away fiercely, knocked on the wall of the car, and signaled the coachman to move on.

When he shifted his gaze, he passed the window screen, and once again saw the man with pale sideburns in the distance, who had never left the coffin, and sighed softly.Not being able to grow old with your lover is perhaps the most painful thing in the world...

The funeral procession was all white, and the sound of mourning and music made Zhao Zhu feel very unlucky. He put his big hand on Lu Li's face, raised his chin and turned to himself, "Isn't your man good-looking?"

Lu Li couldn't hold back, and slapped his paw, "You don't want to be ashamed!"

"No more—" Zhao Zhu kissed Lu Li's rosy lips, "I want a wife!"

Lu Li fell into another round of "excruciating" confrontation with Zhao Zhu, so he didn't have time to think about other things...

It wasn't until the carriage arrived at Huaifu that the coachman asked to get off, and the two separated, let out a sigh of relief, sorted their clothes, and got out of the carriage.

This time, the process of meeting Mrs. Hua went very smoothly. Lu Li had just sent a greeting card, and after a while, Mother Zhou came to greet her in person.

Walking to Mrs. Huai's yard, the maidservant, who was well dressed and had a sweet smile, came to open the curtain in person and said that Mrs. Huai was waiting for them in the flower hall.

Lu Li and Zhao Zhu turned into the main hall together, Mrs. Huai looked at him quietly for a while, and the first thing she said was related to Miao Hongxiao.

She said, "Your father and your mother met through my introduction."
