Capítulo 1370: Chapter 1370: Ninth Young Master Lee Suffers
“What?”
Wang Yongzhu was stunned for a mont, Li Changnan was surrounded and couldn’t return?
If it were anything else, it would be fine, but after all, Li Changnan is a guest and so good-looking. These country folks are rough. What if they mistake him for a woman, say sothing unpleasant, or do sothing inappropriate——
Thinking this way, Wang Yongzhu couldn’t sit still.
Hurriedly asked, “Then where is he now?”
In his heart, he had already decided to take Song Xiaoyin and the others to go and get him back.
“At, at the old house over there——” Wang Yongzhen quickly replied.
It turns out, Li Changnan was thinking that Song Chongjin ntioned planting tea around Qilidun, making the finest into Cloud Mist Tea, and the inferior ones into tea bricks to sell to the grassland tribes later.
Honestly, the location of Qilidun isn’t bad. It takes just a day and a night to reach Jing County, which has waterways allowing travel north to Qishui City.
Qishui City is only about two hundred miles from Chicheng County.
It’s much more convenient compared to sourcing from Jiangnan or the Southern Frontiers.
Moreover, if it works out, it’s our own tea, quality-guaranteed and cheap, it’s cost-effective.
Besides, the Cloud Mist Tea is just nearby, and since the topography doesn’t differ much, the tea’s quality shouldn’t be too bad.
Therefore, Li Changnan wanted to stroll around the village to relax and see the vicinity; it’s good to have an idea, right?
But hadn’t walked far before he was surrounded, blocked completely.
Young ladies and new wives, along with those older won, heard that the handso Young Master from the Capital was out. They imdiately dropped what they were doing, rushing out to watch.
You know, if not for the Song Family’s blessing, they would never have the fortune to see such a handso young man in their lifeti!
A young man as fairylike as this, seeing him once is worth it; who knows, in a few days, there may be no chance!
Li Changnan didn’t think much at first; being watched in the Capital was common, he was used to it.
But unexpectedly, more people showed up. Although they didn’t dare get too close, they blocked all surrounding paths.
No matter their age, their gaze was filled with fascination!
Even with Li Changnan’s mindset, he couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.
Looking around, all roads were blocked, he couldn’t move forward or retreat.
Suddenly afraid, Li Changnan whispered to Wang Cai, “Find an opportunity, go to the Wang Family for help——”
Wang Cai, seeing the many won around, whispered, “Young Master, do you think I can push through?”
Li Changnan…
Luckily, he reached a spot right next to the Wang Family Old House.
Wang Yongzhen, hearing the commotion outside, peeked through the door gap.
These days, she wanted to nd the relationship with the Wang Family but never found an opportunity, which made her anxious.
Peeking through the gap, seeing so many people, and listening, she heard words like the esteed guest of Lord Song’s family, handso young man from the Capital… and realized it was the handso young man from the Capital being blocked.
Suddenly, her eyes shifted; this was a chance. She was worried about having no opportunity to visit the Wang Family.
You know, during the banquet days, she wanted to visit, but before she got close, she was stopped by those big burly n.
If she missed this chance today, it might be tough in the future.
Clenching her teeth, Wang Yongzhen sneaked out the back door and rushed to report to the Song Family Courtyard.
By the ti Wang Yongzhu arrived with people, Li Changnan was already struggling to maintain his image.
You know, it was noon and entering sumr. Although there were a couple of trees by the roadside, there wasn’t much shade at noon.
He was surrounded, unable to move, yet needed to maintain his image.
As a last stand of a famous young man from the Capital, no matter how hot or uncomfortable, he had to present his best self to the public.
But even a famous young man from the Capital hadn’t been under such sun. Li Changnan felt like he was getting tanned into Song Chongjin before hearing Wang Yongzhu’s voice.
“What are you all doing here? Scatter now!”
The young girls and wives reluctantly dispersed.
As they walked, they exchanged comnts: “Oh my, indeed a young man from the Capital, even sweating looks better than our village n—”
“Isn’t it so, look at that face, red from the sun, looks so beautiful, like a flower—”
…
The villagers spoke loudly without restraint, and naturally, Li Changnan heard it all, his face turning black.
Were it not for the sake of appearance outside and giving face to Wang Yongzhu, he’d have stord off.
Wang Yongzhu, suppressing laughter, hurried forward, “Ninth Master Lee has suffered, quickly co with to have so mung bean soup to beat the heat!”
Li Changnan snorted, storming off to the Wang Family.
Wang Yongzhu, following and explaining, “Ninth Master Lee, please don’t take it seriously; they’ve never seen a beautiful man like you. They montarily offended you!”
Hearing this, Li Changnan felt a bit proud. Yes, a handso man like him is unparalleled even in the Capital. How could these countryside folks have the chance to see one?
Wang Yongzhu saw his corners lift slightly, knowing he liked such words, and coaxed him further. Indeed, Li Changnan’s anger eased quite a bit by the ti they reached the Wang Family.
Old Granny Zhang had heard as well and had Old Madam Ding prepare mung bean soup, also boiled a big pot of warm water. Seeing him enter, she promptly had the water brought in for face washing.
Li Changnan excused himself, went inside to bathe and change, then reerged.
Drinking the iced mung bean soup, the heat almost dissipated.
Along with refreshing dishes on the table at noon, Li Changnan ate quite a bit.
After the al, Old Granny Zhang held on to him, soothing him for a while, even offered to stand up for him by scolding those won later.
Li Changnan’s remaining bit of anger vanished.
Old Granny Zhang didn’t deceive Li Changnan. By nightfall, when everyone was three by two at the village entrance cooling off after dinner, she marched over aggressively.
First, she found Lizheng, explaining the day’s events, saying that it’s not just a young man from the Capital; Song Chongjin’s plans for the village rely on him.
And today, well, a bunch of won weren’t ashad, blocking him under the sun for half a day.
The young man from the Capital, delicate and precious, almost got a heat stroke! If anything happened to him, selling everyone in this village wouldn’t be enough to repay!
Like they’ve never seen a man before, the old ones shaless, the young ones unashad! If Young Master Lee is annoyed, and Song Chongjin’s plans fail, they can only bla those won, not us!
Lizheng, hearing this, was dumbfounded! Turning to ask his wife.
At the ntion of the young man from the Capital, his wife’s face, wrinkled like a chrysanthemum, even blushed a bit, making Lizheng not only angry but feel like there was sothing wrong atop his head.
Glaring at his wife, he apologized to Old Granny Zhang, promised to properly teach them a lesson.
Also fearing she wouldn’t believe, he led her to the village entrance, calling for all villagers, male and female, to gather.
Sternly scolding for half an hour, first criticizing the village won for being uncontrollably giddy at the sight of an attractive man.
Then scolded the n, unable to keep tabs on their won!
Finally, a stern warning not to let him catch anyone shalessly chasing after the young man from the Capital again!
Only when the whole village hung their heads did he stop.
That night, each household was noisy until midnight, with old couples bickering, young n hitting their wives, fathers scolding their daughters…
Qilidun was restless except for the Wang Family, with even the village dogs barking for half the night.
