Chapter 370 Looking for Maple Tree
Chapter 370 Looking for Maple Tree
The next day, after breakfast, several girls were chatting in the inner courtyard. Meng Yin took the lead in asking Tao Tao whether she had slept well at night.
Mentioning what happened last night, Tao Tao's face suddenly turned red. Meng Yin smelled something different and deliberately asked: "Taozi, did you do something bad?"
"No, no!" Tao Tao shook her head and denied it repeatedly.
"Oh, there are only a few of us, so it won't hurt if you say it out loud." Meng Yin smiled and grabbed a handful of melon seeds, ready to listen.
Tao Tao's face was red, like a ripe peach. She said embarrassedly: "We just kissed a few times, nothing else."
"Hey, it's just you and Yiqing who haven't done anything." Meng Yin glanced at Xia Nian next to her, "Nian Nian has already achieved great success."
Xia Nian remained calm, took a sip of tea, and said, "Just get used to it."
She knew that Meng Yin had seen the marks on her neck, and she cursed Xiahou Yu in her heart, and she was sure to kick him a few times tonight.
Xu Zheng sighed, "Tsk tsk, Yinyin is really something, she always speaks outrageously."
Meng Yin shrugged: "After all, I am still living a clean life."
"It won't be long." Xia Nian said.
Meng Yin laughed out loud. They talked about this topic without blushing or getting nervous, but Xun Yan and Tao Tao next to them blushed so much that blood could drip out.
Although Xunyan was a brothel worker before, she had never sold her body. Moreover, she was still young and had some fear about that kind of thing.
After talking for a while, Xunyan was hesitant to speak. Seeing this, Xia Nian took the initiative to ask, "Xunyan, do you want to say something?"
Xun Yan nodded hurriedly and said hesitantly: "I have a question I would like to ask you all."
The four of them looked at each other and smiled, "Okay, speak freely."
Xun Yan swallowed his saliva and said, "It was last night..."
She told the four people that Zhong Ziyi had proposed to her, and the corners of their mouths curled up even more after hearing what they heard.
This is simply a redemption article.
"So that's how it is. So Xunyan, you feel that your identity doesn't match that of Mr. Zhong, right?" Meng Yin turned into a love master and analyzed it straightforwardly.
Xun Yan nodded and said, "After all, I have worked in a brothel before, and he is the owner of Bishui Villa. The gap is too big."
"Oh, well, if that's the case, it's the same for us. We were orphans before." Xu Zheng used their story to give Xun Yan courage.
Xun Yan said, "But you, Miss Xu, are different. You have your own strengths. You can read and manage the household, but I can't even recognize words."
Xu Zheng silently raised her hand: "Actually, I don't know how to manage the household. Pei Xuanxi does it all."
"But you know martial arts, you two can fight side by side." Xun Yan said sadly.
"It seems so, but you still can't think like that." Xu Zheng said. She didn't know how to persuade others, so she had to look at the three people next to her.
Meng Yin coughed twice and analyzed seriously: "I don't think you need to worry. Mr. Zhong must have thought it through before he asked you to marry him. He also said last night that he would teach you how to write and read. Since he is willing to overcome all difficulties, you can choose to believe him and stand by his side."
Xia Nian nodded in approval. If she hadn't considered the possibility of leaving in the future, she would have confessed to Xia Houyu the first time she found out that she liked him.
Xia Nian said: "What Yinyin meant is that as long as you two love each other, no difficulties will matter. You can face them together."
Meng Yin took over the conversation: "And the difficulties you think can be changed. For example, if you can't read and write, you can learn slowly. Zhong Ziyi also said that he will teach you. If you don't mind, we can also teach you."
Xun Yan asked gratefully, "Really?"
Meng Yin smiled and said, "Of course."
Xun Yan lowered her eyes and said softly, "Thank you. Actually, what I am most worried about is that he will change his mind. I will have no one to rely on when the time comes. I really don't know what to do."
"Well...it's hard for us to tell you the truth, but if you are afraid of having no one to rely on, you can start your own business after getting married. After all, there are many women in Anhong Continent who are good at business." Meng Yin said.
Xu Zheng waved his fist and said, "Don't be afraid. If he lets you down, we will avenge you!"
Xun Yan couldn't help laughing and said, "Thank you."
Tao Tao smiled slightly, "Xun Yan, no matter what you choose, just don't let yourself regret it. If you really don't want to agree to Master Zhong, I will help you find a good job."
Don’t let yourself regret it... Xunyan was silent. She also liked Zhong Ziyi in her heart. If she insisted on not agreeing to him, would she regret it in the future?
"Perhaps you can first see Mr. Zhong's attitude." Xia Nian said, "He is on good terms with Xia Houyu and the others, and he doesn't like to fight. Birds of a feather flock together. He won't be too bad."
Xun Yan pondered for a moment and thanked him, "Thank you for thinking so much for me. I will think about it carefully and try not to regret it."
The four of them smiled and started talking about other things.
After lunch, they got on the carriage, and the men naturally rode horses, and headed together to the maple forest outside Chaomu City.
There are maple trees on both sides of the road leading there, and the fiery red and tender yellow maple leaves falling from the trees are a beautiful sight.
Several people couldn't help but sigh that the Lord of Chaomu City knew how to play to their strengths.
When they arrived at the maple forest, they got off the carriage. The scenery before them stunned them so much that they even forgot to blink.
This is a picture with sensory impact. The falling maple leaves are warm in color, but the wind today is cold, blowing towards us all the time, and the maple leaves keep falling, as if they will never stop falling. The fire on the ground and the cold in the sky are perfectly blended together.
The forest is connected to the sky simply because the forest is large and flat.
Meng Yin rushed in, spun around in the fallen leaves, and couldn't wait to take out her camera to take pictures.
Now that everything is almost settled, they can finally have fun in peace.
But there is still one task, which is to find the largest maple tree.
Gu Ling said: "This forest has thousands of acres, I'm afraid I can only use Qinggong."
Meng Yin took out an idea that she had thought of a long time ago and said, "How about this, let's compete to see which group can find the biggest one first?"
Gu Ling readily agreed. Tao Tao asked, "Then how do we divide the groups?"
Yiqing naturally put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Okay, it seems the groups have been divided."
"That's not fair, aren't we sure to win?" Xu Zheng said proudly.
The girls in other groups don't know how to do Qinggong, but she and Pei Xuanxi do, which means there are more people to look for it.
Meng Yin had already thought of this. She raised her eyebrows and actually took out a few cloth ropes from the small bag she was carrying.
She always liked to prepare everything before going out, so she made herself several small bags to match her clothes. She had thought of this idea long ago and prepared the rope in advance.
"There are rules. Both of you must tie your arms with this rope." Meng Yin handed the rope out. "Don't break it. If you break it, you're out!"
Xiahou Yu tied it up with a smile and said, "A Nian, watch me take you to first place."
Xia Nian smiled and said, "Okay."
The rope was less than one meter long, so they could only hold the girls and use light skills. But finding the maple tree would depend on the girls' observation skills.
This is a test of speed and luck.
The ropes were tied, and the ten people were divided into five groups, standing on the same horizontal line. It was just a joke, so there was no need to cheat. Meng Yin was picked up by Gu Ling, and she shouted, "Whoever finds it first blows the whistle, start!"
With a whoosh sound, she felt her eyelids were blown up. When she looked again, she was already far ahead.
Meng Yin suddenly remembered that Zhong Ziyi had said before that Gu Ling's lightness skill was the best. She didn't expect him to rush so fast at the beginning.
The other groups were not far behind and began to follow closely behind. Then they scattered and went to look for their own place.
Xunyan was embarrassed when Zhong Ziyi held her in his arms. She had wanted to refuse to play this game, but was afraid of spoiling his fun. Zhong Ziyi also whispered that she wanted to join him, so she had to agree.
She focused on the maple trees around her, trying to avoid looking at each other.
When they came, they found out that there was a red rope tied to the trunk of the largest maple tree, which was used to hang everyone's written wishes.
