Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Candy
“Ah ha ha…!”
After gobbling down a bun in just two or three bites, Lady Li’s mouth was enjoying the taste, and she felt too embarrassed to directly reject Erlaizi. She smiled perfunctorily, “Of course! Once I have so ti, I’ll ask a matchmaker around the neighborhood to see if there’s a suitable girl for you.”
“Older sister, I hope the noble won’t forget their promise.”
“Of course not, of course not. How could I forget a favor asked by a big brother like you?”
“So, when will there be news?” Erlaizi, whose interest was not really in the drink, stared intently at Lady Li’s body, swallowing hard as he rembered the events of that night.
“This…”
Lady Li was instantly rendered speechless. She had no real intention of helping him find a matchmaker; she had just been too embarrassed to refuse after eating his bun and had rely brushed him off. But, to her annoyance, Erlaizi kept pestering her about it. She thought to herself, “I’ve only eaten a few of your buns, and you already want to exchange them for a wife. What wishful thinking!” Her smiling face imdiately turned gloomy.
“Let’s talk about it later, I’m busy now, got to go back.” Saying this, she pushed her butt out and was about to step away.
Having tailed her for more than ten days and finally getting a chance to be alone together in the secluded Small Bamboo Forest, Erlaizi was not about to let her go easily. He rushed forward a few steps and grabbed hold of her, “Eh! Older sister.”
Startled by Erlaizi’s sudden grasp, Lady Li beca quite annoyed, turned around, and slapped his hand off fiercely…
“What are you doing?”
“Older sister, don’t be angry, it just occurred to
that I still have half a pound of candy at ho. I was wondering if you’d like so?”
“Candy?”
Lady Li’s eyes suddenly lit up. Candy was a precious treat. Just now, Xuexue had quite a bit, but that stubborn girl would rather share it with the village kids than give her any, making her itch for so while being helpless to get it. Now, hearing Erlaizi offer it, she was overjoyed.
“Yes! I bought it a couple of days ago in town.” Erlaizi’s face was full of smiles.
“For ?” Lady Li asked uncertainly once again.
“Yes! I took a shine to you, older sister. We should get to know each other better, and maybe then I can finally find a wife too, right?”
“Hehehe…! Sure, sure.”
Lady Li, hearing that Erlaizi was willing to give her candy, instantly went from stormy to sunny, her face beaming again. Whether he found her a match or not didn’t matter; she agreed straight away, intending to trick the candy into her hands first.
Watching Lady Li step by step into the trap he had set, Erlaizi was secretly overjoyed. He knew won from the Nong family loved to take advantage of small gains, so he had scraped together so Copper Coins to buy half a pound of candy from town, not even willing to eat a single piece himself, but rather using it specifically to lure Lady Li into his hook.
Both individuals, each with their own cunning plan, found they had more and more in common, almost regretting not having t sooner.
“Aiyo, my good brother, you’re such a nice person, generous and righteous. In the future, you’ll surely marry a good girl. I can’t believe I didn’t see how good you are before, or I would have found you a lovely wife long ago.” Thinking of the half-pound of candy, Lady Li went against her conscience and lavished excessive praise on Erlaizi.
“It’s not too late now, he he…!”
“By the way, big brother, what kind of wife are you looking for?”
“I like soone just like you, older sister.” Erlaizi gazed at her intently, his intentions very clear.
Lady Li, only thinking of the benefits she could gain, did not notice anything unusual and was inwardly quite pleased with herself.
