CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 083: RIDING A WHEELBARROW HOME PUSHED BY BROTHER (1)

The young man was eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a pale blue silk gown, wearing a square black hat, with a slightly dark complexion, but his features were clear and bright, and his demeanor was scholarly.

From this attire, one could tell his family was very wealthy.

Could this be Mr. Luo who is marrying into the Chai family?

They walked past the corner, the servant leading the horse onto the street, saying, "Master, shall we go check on the carriage frame crafted by Huang the carpenter? You’ll be riding in it when you visit home three days after the wedding, so we can’t let the shopkeeper be careless."

Mr. Luo said, "Dewang will go check, let’s head straight home."

"Alright."

The street was crowded with pedestrians, those carrying poles, pushing carts, ox carts, mule carts passing by occasionally, they weren’t walking fast.

Li Yuzhu turned her gaze, shouted, "Third brother, did you hear? That Miss Chai who bought our white rabbits suddenly fainted today, they say she’s dying."

As she spoke, she winked at Li Xing’an.

Li Xing’an was bewildered, not knowing what she meant suddenly saying this.

Li Yuzhu whispered, "Quickly follow up, just say yes."

Li Xing’an uttered a couple of "oh oh" sounds, and loudly responded, "Oh dear, dying so young, what a pity."

"Not married yet and dying, truly a pity." Li Yuzhu looked at Mr. Luo, saying loudly, "I heard she was so distressed by her broken engagement, not sure if it’s true."

"Huh? Broken engagement? That girl was so nice, why a broken engagement?" Li Xing’an shouted loudly.

"Who knows? Probably tired of the old and wanting new? Sigh—" Li Yuzhu sighed heavily.

Mr. Luo on horseback remained at ease, showing no reaction at all.

Li Yuzhu thought to herself, despite growing up as childhood friends, hearing one might die, how could he be indifferent?

It seems Miss Chai’s affection doesn’t count for much.

She sighed inwardly, turned and walked away.

Yuanxiu watched her, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

At this moment, Mr. Luo turned around.

He glanced at the backs of Li Yuzhu and the others, frowned slightly, but said nothing.

Instead, the servant turned back, glaring at Li Yuzhu and the others, muttering discontentedly, "Where do these meddlesome folks come from? Gossiping behind backs? The broken engagement wasn’t initiated by the young master, it was the Chai family who wanted it. Miss Chai being sick, what’s it got to do with the young master?"

"Ah Fu?" Mr. Luo’s voice was cold and deep.

The servant hurriedly closed his mouth, not daring to say another word.

.

In the sunny March day, the sun hung high.

Walking under the sun was quite exhausting.

The Great Princess and Second Princess followed, constantly complaining of fatigue.

The two glared at Li Yuzhu, eyes almost shooting fire in jealousy.

Why?

Because Li Yuzhu was sitting on a cart, being pushed by Second Young Master and the third brother Li Xing’an in turns.

The Great Princess coquettishly said, "Second brother, let me sit for a while."

Second Young Master said, "With your long arms and legs, how could you fit?"

The Great Princess, "..."

The Second Princess sighed too, "Third brother, my feet are tired, I want to sit on the cart."

Li Xing’an paid her no mind, "You’re too big to squat down? Little sister is just a tiny bundle, only she can squeeze in. Told you to lose weight but you haven’t, now look, your feet hurt from all that weight, huh?"

The Second Princess, "..."

The cart was filled with items, leaving just a small corner vacant.

She glanced at her one hundred thirty pounds figure, dejectedly lowering her head.

.

Because the Great Princess and Second Princess kept complaining of fatigue, they stopped and started often, only reaching the foot of Niu Tou Mountain later in the afternoon.
