Chapter 8 Means
But the third lady didn't greet them again, and drifted away at noon, leaving only a lingering fragrance, Chu Li felt inexplicably lost.
Li Yue was also slumped and unable to raise his energy.
The quality of the cold star grass is average, it is not considered a spiritual grass, and the purity of the spiritual energy is similar to that of a willow tree.
The aura of Moonlight Orchid was running the Xiaoximai Jue, sending out a trace of the cold star grass.
The cold star grass has the aura of moonlight orchid, and it is full of vitality and greenness overnight, just like the freshness and exuberance after a light rain.
The next morning, Suru appeared wearing an apricot-yellow blouse, accompanied by a faint fragrance.
Chu Li was sitting and practicing in the moonlight orchid garden, but Li Yue had been waiting under the willow tree by the lake, eager to see through, and finally waited for Suru.
He greeted him enthusiastically, and the two came to Chu Li.
Suru waved her hand, signaling to Chu Li that there is no need to be polite, she stared at the Han Xingcao for a long time, then raised her head and asked Chu Li, "Chu Li, is this really that pot?"
Chu Li nodded.
"Simply..." Suru couldn't believe it, stretched out her hand to stir the Cold Star Grass, and finally believed it: "It really is!"
She made a small mark on this potted flower, so that no one else could find it.
Chu Li also secretly sighed, Suru has such a meticulous mind at such a young age, it is really not to be underestimated, he can't be arrogant, he thinks that with Dayuan mirror wisdom, he can run wild.
Suru looked at Chu Li, and suddenly chuckled: "Chu Li, it seems that you really have some skills."
Fang Han smiled and said nothing.
Suru took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve, with a seed wrapped in it, and handed it to Chu Li: "This is the seed given to you by the miss, you should find a way to grow it."
"What seed?"
"Tanmenghua, have you heard of it?"
Chu Li pondered for a while, thinking like electricity and searching the memory palace: "The eternal dream flower?"
"Sure enough!" Suru nodded appreciatively, "That's it!"
Miss might reuse this Chu Li, she went back to investigate thoroughly, she knew the situation after Chu Li entered the mansion like the back of her hand.
He likes to read and is knowledgeable, and he is the only one in the guard of the Duke's Mansion. Almost everyone is focused on practicing martial arts and has no time to study. He feels that knowing more is not as good as martial arts. Chu Li's thinking is very different from ordinary people.
Chu Li frowned and said, "Tanmenghua is said to grow on the top of the clouds, and the environment is probably..."
"It's up to you." Suru pointed at the seed with a smile, "You will be really capable if you can really make it germinate and grow!"
"Okay, let me try."
"If it doesn't grow, then just serve the flowers honestly!"
"Yes." Chu Li said in a deep voice.
Li Yue was courteous and wanted to help send the Cold Star Grass back, Suru flatly refused, and left gracefully, Li Yue stood under the willow tree and watched for a long time, he was still reluctant to look away when the boat disappeared.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Brother Li, is your soul gone?"
Li Yue blushed and said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Wake up!" Chu Li shook his head: "That's not a woman we can think of!"
"Ah..." Li Yue squatted down lazily, and scratched the ground with a straw stick: "Sometimes I'm not reconciled, I wish I could be a guard!"
"Even if you practice peerless martial arts, it's impossible to get such a beauty as Director Su."
"There is always a glimmer of hope!"
"Even Zhuo Feiyang, Director Su didn't pay attention to him. Are you more handsome than him and stronger in martial arts?"
"You mouth!" Li Yue pointed at him, and said angrily: "I can't even have a good dream, you have to pour cold water on me!"
"I'm afraid that you will do something stupid. Once you get carried away by your emotions, you can do anything!"
"Oh... I really don't know which man is worthy of Director Su!"
"That's not what we should care about, let's work!" Chu Li sighed.
But the heart is completely different, the ambition is raging, more and more blazing, Xiao Qi, Suru, Zhao Ying, they all have to get it, so that they can live up to this world once!
——
In the next month, Chu couldn't leave the East Garden.
In the evening, the setting sun slanted, making the East Garden even more gorgeous. Li Yue sent a pot of moonlight orchids to the West Garden, and returned angrily.
Chu Li sat in the moonlight orchid garden, a green bud emerged from the soil beside him, and the dream flower had already grown.
Li Yue sat down on the ground and cursed bitterly: "This Gu Litong is such a villain!"
Chu Li looked up at him.
Li Yue said: "Didn't you see that his nose is not his nose and his face is not his face, as if he owes him ten thousand taels!"
Chu Li smiled.
"I'm not as good as a man, so I'll admit it. What kind of face do you put on? It's not that I want Yueguanglan from him!" Li Yue became more and more angry as he spoke, and his voice rose.
Chu Li said: "What else did he say?"
"...It's nothing." Li Yue snorted.
Chu Li smiled: "Is it not enough to say that I am lucky?"
"Hmph, almost." Li Yue curled his lips.
He knew that now was the critical time, if the dream-blooming tan flower really grew, Chu Li would be able to be reused by Miss, so there was no need to entangle with Gu Litong.
Chu Li said: "Jealousy is inevitable, will others see you sending flowers?"
"The ones in the West Garden are all there, and I met two on the way. Are you afraid that they won't admit it?" Li Yue's face became serious: "Greed for your own?"
The new moonlight orchid has adapted to the soil here. Gu Litong used it to cultivate a few plants, insisting that it was his own research, which is really troublesome!
Chu Li said: "We have to guard against it."
"I'm going to find Mr. Meng!" Li Yue couldn't sit still, got up, and strode away.
Chu Li shook his head and smiled, these are just trivial matters, as long as he hugs Miss San's thick legs, his future will be guaranteed.
Meng Qinglin quickly came over with Li Yue, his face was full of red, and Chu Li stood up to salute.
"Haha, Xiao Chu, I'm here to announce the good news!" He patted Chu Li on the shoulder, laughed and said, "This time I'm really proud, you didn't see Gu Litong's face!"
Chu Li said with a smile: "Brother Li just sent a moonlight orchid, Gu Litong didn't look good."
Meng Qinglin was overjoyed: "Xiao Li went at the right time, and Gu Litong came back from Baicaoyuan in a disheveled state, and we ran into each other!"
Li Yue shook his head and said, "This Gu Litong is really too much!"
"It's understandable." Meng Qinglin said with a chuckle, "Xiao Chu, you're promoted again, eighth rank!"
"Thank you, Mr. Meng!" Chu Li cupped his fists.
Meng Qinglin waved his hand: "Xiao Chu, I'm ashamed, you have to wait to enter the medicine garden."
Chu Li looked at him.
Meng Qinglin sighed: "The guys in the West Garden are blocking it like crazy. It will take a while for the results to come out. Don't worry."
"So..." Chu Li nodded.
Naturally, he would not speak out about Xiao Qi's decision, it would do no harm.
Meng Qinglin said: "You have to be careful about Gu Litong, he's going to find fault with you, he's definitely not convinced!"
Chu Li smiled: "In fact, it's nothing to compare, and it will be beneficial to learn from each other."
"I just like your bravery!" Meng Qinglin laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Come if you are not convinced, until you are convinced!"
Li Yue shook his head: "Gu Litong is still very good."
"Then you will show your abilities if you win!" Meng Qinglin said with a smile: "If you are too weak, it will be no fun to win!"
Chu Li smiled and said nothing.
He understood that Meng Qinglin's agitation was because he wanted to win Gu Litong again and remove the obstacles to entering the medicine garden.
——
When the lights came on, Chu Li was dragged out of the East Garden by Li Yue, and went to Yingxianlou, Jin Bapin, how could he not celebrate?
Yingxian Building is located in the south of Chongming City, not far from the South Gate. The tall buildings are towering, and the signboards flutter in the wind, which can be seen throughout Chongming City.
The two sat on the window seat on the second floor, overlooking the bustling traffic on the street, the noise and bustling, giving birth to the leisurely contentment that everyone is drunk and I am alone.
Four altars of Biye Niang were opened, and the aroma of the wine was tangy. Ten dishes of delicacies filled the table, and the two chatted while drinking.
Li Yue was elated and said with a smile: "Brother, this is right, life should be like this, why don't we come out and enjoy it with such a high salary?"
Chu Li smiled: "Isn't it worth ten taels of silver after this meal?"
"Six taels is enough!" Li Yue said with a smile: "Meals are not worth much, and wine is expensive, one tael for a pot!"
Chu Li really didn't know the price.
"We're fifty taels a month, besides, there are rewards!"
"That's true."
Chu Li is also a person who likes to enjoy, good wine, good food and beauties, drinking the best wine, and dating the most beautiful women, he has a high vision, and if he wants to enjoy, he can enjoy the best. He must first have status, power and martial arts before he can talk about enjoyment.
"Yo——, isn't this the famous Mr. Chu!" Suddenly there was a shout, and the two stood in front of their table.
Chu Li glanced at the two young men, one was tall and thin, with long narrow eyes, squinting at them arrogantly, and beside him was a plump young man with a tight white and fat face.
"Gu Litong!" Li Yue shouted.
The thin and tall man said coldly: "Li Yue!"
"Gu Litong, are you following me?!" Li Yue lowered his face.
"Joke!" Gu Litong sneered: "You are not a beauty, why should I follow you!...Chu Li, right?"
His long narrow eyes were bright and compelling, as if he wanted to see through Chu Li.
"I'm Chu Li, Brother Gu, I've been looking forward to it for a long time!" Chu Li looked at Gu Litong. It was the first time the two had met. This Gu Litong was good at martial arts and could be a ninth-rank guard.
Gu Litong sat down unceremoniously, and stretched out his hand: "Xiao Er, add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks!"
"Come on..."
Chu Li frowned. His behavior showed that he didn't take himself seriously, and the visitor was not kind.
"You are Chu Li?" The chubby young man looked Chu Li up and down: "Wow, you are in the limelight!"
Chu Li looked at him: "This brother is...?"
"Zhou Yuting!" The fat young man said proudly.
Chu Li suddenly said: "So it's Brother Zhou."
Zhou Yuting, the eighth-rank bodyguard, the son of Zhou Enshrined in Yanwu Palace, has extensive connections.
Zhou Yuting picked up the wine jar, filled it up for himself and Gu Litong, put it down heavily, and they drank a glass together, obviously considering themselves as the masters.
Li Yue looked angry, but Chu Li stopped the attack with a wink.
Zhou Yuting put down his wine glass and looked at him playfully: "Chu Li, to be honest, you really planted the moonlight orchid?"
Chu Li smiled: "What does Brother Zhou mean?"
"Moonlight Orchid was planted by Brother Gu!" Zhou Yuting said loudly as he set down his wine glass heavily.
Chu Li was surprised, looked at Zhou Yuting and then at Gu Litong, and laughed.
"Zhou Yuting, what nonsense are you talking about!" Li Yueteng stood up, his eyes widening angrily: "Is the moonlight orchid grown by Gu Litong?"
"That's right, Brother Gu planted it!" Zhou Yuting took a sip of wine, and the old god nodded: "Chu Li stole Brother Gu's technology, such a person is not worthy of staying in the Duke's Mansion!"
Chu Li shook his head.
"Nonsense!" Li Yue blushed angrily: "Zhou Yuting, you are too shameless. I sent your Moonlight Orchid over there. Many people have seen it, so don't want to deny it!"
"Who saw it?" Zhou Yuting waved his hands disapprovingly: "They are so brave to tell you nonsense!"
"Fang..." Li Yue was about to say his name when Chu Li interrupted him: "Brother Li, forget it!"
Li Yue looked at him.
Chu Li filled the wine glass for him and held it up: "Come on, after hearing such an interesting joke, I should have a drink!"
Li Yue was startled, and immediately realized, he laughed: "Yes, yes, but this joke is too bad!"
