MTL - Time Traveling: This is Not Meat-~ ☆Chapter 44 Cruise Ship

When Bai Pingyou appeared in front of Zhu Xiangxiang with a pleasant smile the next day, she was still slightly puzzled by this guy.

"Cousin is still so beautiful." Zhu Xiangxiang today is wearing a lake blue dress, with two buns as usual, with a delicate pearl flower pinned to it.

Although simple, it also looks beautiful.

"Thank you cousin for the compliment." This time, when he went out, Lanhua and Lancao followed, Zhu Xiangxiang was a lady of the official family no matter what.

But it was a little later, walking a little slower with Bai Pingyou's servant.

"Cousin is so polite, I feel a little overwhelmed."

Zhu Xiangxiang didn't say anything, the corners of his mouth curled up, and there were many people on the street, Zhu Xiangxiang maintained his perfect image.

Dressed up as a well-behaved Miss Jiao.

Seeing her pretending like this, Bai Pingyou just smiled.

I don't know why, but he just likes to tease her, as if watching her change face is his greatest pleasure.

"Cousin is going out with a mask today?"

Of course Zhu Xiangxiang knew what he meant, and there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his tone was not so good.

"Speaking of things like masks, haven't they always been the patent of my cousin?"

"Each each other."

Bai Pingyou made an appointment with Zhu Xiangxiang on a cruise ship today, and the two rushed to the ferry.

Although it is different from Zhu Xiangxiang's outdoor activity of picking mushrooms, the cruise is also interesting.

You know, except for the floating market, she has never been on a boat.

If it wasn't for following the white fox, it would have been more interesting, but that's fine too. Zhu Xiangxiang can always find happiness in life.

Looking at some gorgeous boats, Zhu Xiangxiang was a little pleasantly surprised. Seeing her eyes light up, Bai Pingyou also raised the corners of his mouth.

Two aboard. Looking at the boat, Zhu Xiangxiang carefully looked at it. You must know that the only boat she has been on is a small boat that can hold five or six.

As for this boat, it seems that there is no problem in accommodating more than 20 people, and the gorgeous curtains on it make this boat look extraordinarily delicate.

Zhu Xiangxiang smiled: "So beautiful." She is not hypocritical, she just likes it.

"Come on, let's get on the boat." Bai Pingyou reached out to help Zhu Xiangxiang onto the boat. She was a little awkward, but she glanced at him and found that he looked normal.

Zhu Xiangxiang also boarded the boat.

Well, I didn't expect this white fox to be quite a gentleman.

He helped Zhu Xiangxiang to the boat, lifted the curtain again, and covered Xiangxiang's head with his hands so that she would not touch his head, looking like a modest gentleman.

Zhu Xiangxiang got into the cabin. They seldom need a big boat here, but the average wealthy family will have a decent boat.

Their family is not willing to spend money to buy something that is not practical.

"Did my cousin buy this boat?" She widened her eyes, if so, yes, would she be able to cruise often in the future, hehe. very nice!

Seeing her looking like a kitten about to steal, Bai Ping smiled and put the bait.

"Yeah, sometimes when I'm in a bad mood, lying in this boat, looking at the stars in the sky, floating on the quiet lake, and listening to the singing of cicadas, I feel very relaxed, as if all the confusion was gone in a blink of an eye."

Listening to the scene he described, she looked at him enviously.

"Cousin, this boat is very expensive, right?" Sure enough, she still cares about money the most.

Although Bai Pingyou is not extravagant, he does not give up much in terms of enjoying life.

"Actually, it's not bad. It's not expensive." He said a number lightly, and Zhu Xiangxiang's eyes widened.

Isn't that expensive?

she wondered. It really is a rich white fox!

With a signal to the boatman at the bow, the boat began to leave the port slowly.

Lanhua Lancao and Bai Pingyou's servants did not enter the cabin, but took the bow instead.

Feeling the movement of the boat, Zhu Xiangxiang leaned against the carved window in the cabin, just looking at the ripples on the water surface, the breeze was blowing on her face, she turned her head with a smile, it seems that even the white fox looks special when there are beautiful mountains and rivers It's pleasing to the eye.

"Cousin, can you lend me this boat in the future?" She said delicately.

He lowered his eyes, moved his eyelashes, and saw Zhu Xiangxiang looking at him expectantly.

Laughed: "What good can it do?"

Nani?

Zhu Xiangxiang hated secretly, it really was a white fox. I don't want to suffer at all!

"It's my cousin, and besides, it's my fiancé, who wouldn't even borrow a boat, how stingy." She pouted.

"It turns out that my cousin also knows it's her fiancé! But how do you think, my cousin doesn't regard this cousin as her fiancé." He still had that smiling face, and there was something in his words.

It's a pity that Zhu Xiangxiang's attention was not on the top, and he didn't hear his implication. She slandered in her heart, would this white fox be so treacherous? He even pretended to be good, but he still refused to borrow a boat. Really, woohoo! I really like it, I really like this boat.

Seeing her tangled face, Bai Pingyou was unmoved.

"Hey, my cousin knows what my cousin is doing. It's a typical case of no profit. If there is no benefit, why would you lend the boat to my cousin? But I know, my cousin has no money to buy it." He said leisurely. Said, that looks very exasperating.

Sure enough, Zhu Xiangxiang was angry, but she didn't get angry at all. It was too out of character for her to get angry after just a few words.

"Cousin, don't laugh at cousin!" She turned around like a little girl, and looked out of the boat again.

But the girl thought about it in her heart.

Fill the wine glasses on the cabin table.

"Will my sister have a drink?" He invited.

"Okay!" Zhu Xiangxiang is actually not very good at drinking, but she has to try everything she likes. And she also knew that this cousin of the Bai family would not let her get drunk and be rude.

Regarding the matter of borrowing the boat, Bai Pingyou originally thought that Zhu Xiangxiang still wanted to discuss terms with him, but who knew that she refused to continue talking. But looking at her eyes, he thought again, she is really a little cousin!

Although it doesn't look like anything on the surface, I'm afraid I have to think about it!

"How did cousin think of buying such a boat? How could uncle be willing?" She smiled.

"The money is earned, and you have to enjoy it so that your life is not in vain. But my cousin may not think so." He complained, and sure enough, the little cousin was angry again. Seeing her eyes widen, she let out a sigh of relief. Bai Pingyou felt extremely happy. Today's Bai Pingyou is like a little boy, bullying the little girl he likes everywhere.

"Yes, yes. I don't know how to enjoy it. Who would let me be a girl, and my father is a clean official, and the family has a lot of money. How can I have extra spare money to buy this kind of entertainment?"

To be an honest official? Bai Pingyou couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

She is really embarrassed to say it.

"That's true, but although you are living a comfortable and carefree life here, you have to hold your breath after all. Speaking of which, this kind of person is really poor and has money left."

Soul light!

Zhu Xiangxiang felt that he could no longer maintain the smile on his face. Is this **** white fox trying to **** her off? Is this the way to go?

Seeing her getting more and more angry, Bai Pingyou finally stopped. If he really made his little cousin cry, he would feel distressed.

"Actually, it's not impossible to borrow a boat..." He left the words in half.

Originally Zhu Xiangxiang was still pouting and angry, but because of his words, he smiled again.

"Our cousins ​​have such a good relationship. Of course, such things are easy to discuss. I know that my cousin is not that cruel. My cousin really likes this boat."

"My cousin also knows my cousin's temperament..." He just refused to say it, and insisted on hanging her.

Zhu Xiangxiang was annoyed, and said simply: "Then what exactly is my cousin going to do?"

Bai Ping You smiled: "It's not that bad. If my cousin becomes Bai Fu, there's no need to borrow a boat! This boat doesn't belong to my cousin."

When Bai Pingyou said this, he seemed cynical and didn't take it seriously, but he also carefully observed Zhu Xiangxiang's expression.

Sure enough, Zhu Xiangxiang was very surprised. How could she not be surprised? She never thought that Bai Pingyou was talking about this issue, and she thought that Bai Pingyou wanted to get involved in the newspaper business. After all, he was interested in this before.

But marry her? What a joke.

"Cousin can really joke."

"Why are you joking? Although we are pretending to be relatives, my cousin has never thought about the actual situation? In fact, what is better than getting married? Because he is handsome, handsome, and rich in wealth, and his parents are even more I will be very good to my cousin. I also know that this age is not too young. I don’t have a husband, and there are always some inconveniences occasionally. If my cousin marries, no matter how you look at it, it is a match made in heaven. Moreover, my cousin still has that Xiaoliu by her side now, in fact Cousin should know that Xiao Liu is not suitable for cousin, marrying is nothing but the best way to get rid of Xiao Liu."

"Xiao Liu has already taken care of it. He is just young and ignorant. Why are you so anxious to get married?"

"Even if you convince him for a while, how do you know that he won't repeat it. Cousin is smart, so naturally she should know that this proposal is good for both of you. Does it mean that cousin wants to marry into the Liu family? Even if Xiao Liu is protecting her, so what? Can you adapt to the many rules of that big family?"

Zhu Xiangxiang didn't understand, didn't she borrow a boat? Why are you talking about this again.

Isn't it a long time before marriage is put on the agenda?

"I'll think about it, but why did this topic go around this?" Zhu Xiangxiang laughed.

"It's just my best idea. Cousin should be clear and won't fool around! The mutual benefit of both parties is the basis of our happy cooperation."

"I will consider it." She lowered her eyes and raised her glass.

"I would like it better if the wine was replaced with tea." She smiled.

"It's always inconvenient on this cruise ship, but if we get married in the future, not only the boat, but also everything in the Bai family will belong to my cousin. Naturally, my cousin can do whatever she wants." For the little girl who loves money Cat, I will use such a bait to seduce her.

Sure enough, Zhu Xiangxiang's eyes were a little shaken, but he regained his clarity immediately.

"Since cousin is a business, how can he do such a loss-making business? If you are married, you can get so much, but what about cousin? What can cousin get? Just a husband who handles family affairs? I think, A good housekeeper can also do this." She is not a fool.

Sure enough, this girl's vigilance is still high.

"Of course a good housekeeper can manage the house well, but after all, what is needed is a self that can be completely assured, and the personality of the cousin is the most suitable. We can get the greatest benefit naturally if we combine our two swords It can also manage the Bai family safely. You should know, mother, that is, the aunt, her character is really not suitable for a housekeeper, and my father is too stingy. As long as you have a cousin, you can work outside with confidence. "

Looking at his expression, Zhu Xiangxiang didn't seem to be fake. Of course, with the relationship with Bai Mu, he would not harm her.

But let her marry a young girl in a blink of an eye. Zhu Xiangxiang still has a lot of entanglements.

seriously.

"Cousin, I will think about it carefully."

"Well, I hope my cousin can choose the best way for me, the Zhu family, and the Bai family."

After finishing this topic, the two of them focused their attention on the mountains and rivers. Zhu Xiangxiang didn't care about Bai Pingyou, and just quietly leaned on the simple pillars in the boat, bending his legs, looking comfortable.

And Bai Pingyou didn't say anything, the gently fluttering curtains, the slight breeze, the ripples on the water surface caused by the sliding of the cruise ship, and the picturesque beauty all made him very happy. Just looking at Zhu Xiangxiang's side, and pouring himself a drink, Bai Pingyou thought, it would be great if it could continue like this.

The two maidservants at the bow looked into the boat through the curtains, and saw Mr. Pian Pianjia in white clothes staring at the unknowingly pretty girl obsessively.

The two looked back, looked at each other and smiled.

． ． ． ． ． ．

In early summer, at dusk, a light rain came as expected. It seems that the summer in the south of Huizhou is always like this, with a lot of rain, but not too much, and we have long been accustomed to this rainy season.

Although it is unitary time, it may be rainy, and it is already dark outside. At this time, the lamps were already lit in the main room, and the girl in plain skirt who looked like a maid walked through the outer room and raised a thick curtain to enter the door. When she saw the attire of the woman in the room, she frowned and sighed.

"Miss is always like this, but Tianliang refuses to add more clothes. This servant will bring you a cloak to put on."

Looking at the woman called Miss, she is wearing a lake blue dress and her hair is lightly **** in a bun. She looks only thirteen or fourteen years old. .

When the servant girl complained, she just smiled slightly.

The maidservant in plain clothes is none other than bluegrass. Lan knew that the young lady didn't like heavy clothes, but how could she only wear a single shirt in such cold weather.

"Lancao, did father come home?"

"Miss Hui, no."

After thinking for a while, the girl said, "Go to mother and let me know that the weather has changed a lot recently, and I feel a little uncomfortable, so I won't wait for father to come back, and rest first. When father returns, mother will tell father."

Lancao didn't say much else, she just said yes, and then she took the order and left.

And the girl really ordered another maid, Lan Hua, to wait for her to wash and rest.

This girl is exactly Zhu Xiangxiang.

At this time, she was struggling with Bai Pingyou's proposal during today's cruise.

late at night.

Although she said she was a little sleepy before, she suddenly dreamed of the conversation during the day, dreamed of Bai Pingyou's smiling face, and woke up with a jolt, she was no longer sleepy.

Since she was not sleepy, she got up, walked slowly to the window, opened the window, but saw that the rain had stopped.

She loves rainy days the most, but how can life be full of rainy seasons?

No matter how continuous the rain is, it will always stop.

And does she really like rain? I'm afraid, she likes the fresh air after the rain, doesn't she?

Zhu Xiangxiang was thinking wildly.

Lan Hua, who was resting outside, heard the sound inside the house, and entered the house with a lamp.

Seeing that Miss was not only wearing unlined clothes, but also opened the window, she hurried over to close the window.

"My dear lady, you can lie down quickly. In such a cold weather, you will be unwell again tomorrow."

Zhu Xiangxiang didn't refute, and let Lanhua pull her to the bed.

Xu Shi didn't sleep well late at night, Zhu Xiangxiang woke up late, and looked haggard.

Seeing her like this, Lan Hua was not at ease, and asked about asking for a doctor, but was stopped. In fact, Zhu Xiangxiang knew that he was fine, but he didn't sleep well. What is this?

She just kept thinking about Bai Pingyou's proposal.

Hatched.

"Miss, I've been restless since I came back from the cruise yesterday. What's the matter?" Because Lanhua and Lancao grew up with Zhu Xiangxiang, and Zhu Xiangxiang never completely treated the two as maids, so the relationship between each other The conversation was never shy about those.

"Thinking." She said with a smile.

Lan Hua couldn't help but rolled her eyes.

Zhu County Magistrate and Bai's naturally didn't know what happened to Zhu Xiangxiang, but Zhu County Magistrate was very thoughtful.

Seeing her daughter in a trance for two days, she called her to the study.

Magistrate Zhu's study does not have many books.

Xiangxiang fiddled with the bookshelf.

"Be honest, let's ask questions." County magistrate Zhu saw his daughter's absent-mindedness, so he raised his voice a little bit.

"It's okay." She didn't take it seriously.

"Are you okay? Are you in a trance? What did Ping Youhe say? Why did you go out with him and you became like this? If you don't want to talk, call him over." This girl, the older she is, the more disobedient she is.

Zhu Xiangxiang twitched a little, but finally said: "Actually, that's not necessary. It's no big deal, but, just, Bai Pingyou asked if he wanted to marry him."

puff! This soul is weak! Didn't he promise himself to take his time? Why did you go to talk to Xiangxiang about this again?

Hey, that's right, Xiangxiang didn't have the temperament to be obsessed with him, so why did he become twitchy at this time.

"Such a big thing, why don't you talk about it when you come back? It's not a big deal. If getting married is not a big deal, then tell me what a big deal is. Look. I've really become more and more ignorant during this period of time."

Zhu Xiangxiang was criticized and flattened his mouth.

He murmured to himself, "It wasn't a big deal in the first place."

"Still stubborn. Well, let's talk about it, do you want to settle this matter yourself? Besides, didn't we say that we would postpone it for three years?"

Zhu Xiangxiang nodded: "Yeah, it's all bad for the white fox. If he didn't use those messy things to lure him, wouldn't he be firm?" Well, it's all his fault!

Zhu County Magistrate squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Xiangxiang.

"what happened?"

"It was just that we went on a cruise together the day before yesterday. We liked the white fox's boat very much, and then we thought about borrowing it from him in the future. In the end, he said let me marry him, and said that I was married to him, and all his things belonged to him. Hey, Dad, I know that he likes money very much, so he used this temptation again, isn't he a little tempted? But thinking of the white fox being so treacherous, he hesitated."

Magistrate Zhu sighed, wondering who said that back then?

Poor sons and rich daughters!

Sure enough, it is still the truth. If you don't raise your daughter richly, you will abduct her with money. Look at your own girl, isn't she a model like this? Look at her little face of a money fan.

At that time, Zhu County Magistrate had forgotten that he was like that too!

Not the same money fan.

"My silly girl, do you want to marry for money?"

"Of course not, but it's really good to marry my cousin. The advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages. How can it be possible to marry for money, although what he said is quite tempting."

County magistrate Zhu sighed: "Xiangxiang, didn't you think about giving up those pros and cons, giving up those outsiders, and never thinking about really liking one and marrying one?"

County magistrate Zhu and the Bai family are in agreement. He hopes that his daughter can marry someone she really likes, not like this, carefully weigh the pros and cons, and then make a decision.

How could she be happy if she married for those other things?

And the happiness of children is the greatest happiness for them as parents.

Xiangxiang was stunned by Zhu County magistrate's words.

She didn't think so much, after all, this is ancient times, not modern times. Not everything will go your way. Naturally, she wanted to find the most suitable compromise.

He shook his head blankly.

"Silly girl, why don't you know how to find someone you like?"

However, in ancient times, wasn't it all the words of the matchmaker's order? Is it possible to fall in love freely?

Seeing her dumbfounded appearance, Magistrate Zhu rubbed her head.

"Don't worry about this matter, you can talk about it in peace. I didn't expect to marry my daughter so early. This little **** is playing tricks on me."

Hearing what Zhu County magistrate said, Zhu Xiangxiang laughed and nodded in agreement.

She's used to making up her own mind about everything.

Suddenly worrying about everything, she is not used to it yet.

After thinking about it, she giggled.
