The next day, when Tang Ji woke up, Jiu'er was already busy in the kitchen. She thought she was going to make a hearty breakfast to reward herself, but unexpectedly, the girl actually made porridge again. Fortunately, it was different from the rice soup last time.
The white porridge was very thick, and the seasoning with some ingredients aroused his appetite.
Tang Ji got out of bed, dipped a willow branch in some salt and went to the courtyard to brush his teeth.
At this point, Tang Ji had to sigh. His family was extremely poor, but they had abundant salt reserves. Although he didn't know the price of salt, it was definitely not cheap in ancient times. These two girls really didn't hesitate to starve for beauty.
But having said that, the willow branch is no better than a toothbrush. It is very uncomfortable after rubbing against the teeth. He has a bitter look on his face and moves his hands faster. He wants to end the process quickly and plans to use the toothbrush himself in a few days.
At this moment, there was a "dong-dong" knock on the door.
Tang Ji looked suspicious, rinsed his mouth briefly and walked to open the door. He didn't see anyone at first glance. He thought someone's child was playing a prank, but the next second he looked down and saw someone kneeling on the ground.
The man was shocked.
The man in a white robe was short and average-looking, with pits the size of sesame seeds on both cheeks. He was holding a piece of yellowed paper in his hand. But when he saw that it was a man who opened the door, he stood up awkwardly and said embarrassedly
: "Sorry, brother, I admitted to the wrong door."
Immediately, Liu Lu took two steps back, bowed briefly, and turned to leave.
Tang Ji didn't think much, opened the door and walked directly back to the courtyard. Unexpectedly, the other party broke in again not long after.
"I'm not mistaken. Who are you? Why are you at Miss Jiang's house?" Liu Long pointed at Tang Ji, his eyes full of vigilance. He found that the other party was not interested in talking to him. He was about to get angry when he saw someone coming from the house.
Jiang Ran walked out, immediately adjusted his facial expression, and greeted: "Miss Jiang!"
Tang Ji also turned his head and said softly: "Good morning!"
"Good morning." Jiang Ran was used to this kind of early morning greeting. She touched the hem of her pleated skirt and replied to him, then walked to the kitchen.
Liu Lu glared at Tang Ji, but he didn't have time to guess the other party's identity and quickly rushed outside the kitchen to stop her.
Jiang Ran frowned slightly, sighed, and replied: "Mr. Liu, I have made it very clear that Jiang Ran has no feelings for you. I hope you will not spend any time on me."
Seeing this scene, Tang Ji finally believed Jiu'er's words that there were countless people pursuing Jiang Ran, and they all came to his home.
However, since this guy has not won the beauty's heart, he naturally cannot be allowed to get close to Jiang Ran, otherwise his pursuit may turn into obscenity.
Tang Ji walked forward quickly, protecting Jiang Ran behind him.
Jiu'er, who heard the commotion, also rushed out. After seeing the situation clearly, he said angrily: "Why is it you again? My lady said she is not interested in you, why are you coming over again and again?"
Liu Lu giggled twice, cupped his hands and said, "Miss Jiu'er, don't be angry, I wrote a poem and wanted to give it to your young lady."
Then, he turned his attention to Jiang Ran and added: "Miss Jiang, after Liu finishes reading, if you don't like it, I will leave immediately without any delay."
Jiang Ran didn't want to cause trouble again, so he nodded slightly and agreed.
With a happy face, Liu Hao slowly opened the paper in his hand, cleared his throat, and read aloud: "Wutong Wutong, Huangqi Fengliu..."
The corner of Tang Ji's mouth twitched. No wonder this guy is single. He blocks people's doorsteps early in the morning and recites poems. This is not romantic, but a disease. If you just buy some breakfast, the effect will be many times better.
"Miss Jiang, does this person often harass you?" He asked Jiang Ran in a low voice.
Jiang Ran nodded tiredly and replied in a low voice: "It has been almost a month. He comes here every now and then. One time he even alarmed the neighbors. I also explained a lot, but he... ugh!"
Listening to the sigh, Tang Ji actually wanted to ask her why she didn't hate him, but on second thought, she probably had to rely on her looks. After all, no girl can refuse a handsome guy!
"...My beloved is late, and I am heartbroken." Liu Long finished reading the poem with emotion, his eyes fixed on Jiang Ran, and asked for a compliment.
Unexpectedly, the latter simply replied: "Master Liu, please come back."
This made Liu Lu become anxious and wanted to rush forward, but Jiu'er reached out to stop him.
He had seen the other party's martial arts before, and he did not dare to act rashly. He could only shout at the top of his voice: "Miss Jiang, you know that I am happy with you, and I only love you in this life. Why can't you see that I have done so many things?"
Woolen cloth?"
Immediately, Liu Lu's eyes turned to Tang Ji again, raised his finger and pointed at him, asking: "Is it possible that you have fallen in love with this pretty boy? What is so good about him? How can he protect you when he is so weak?"
Hearing this, Tang Ji lowered his head and looked at his body. This body was indeed a little weaker, but he was a solid muscular man in his previous life. It was only a matter of time before he was trained in this world, but this was not something that the other party could bite randomly.
Excuse!
Jiang Ran frowned, obviously a little angry. He stood there and said in a deep voice: "I hope Mr. Liu will pay attention to his words. We are just ordinary friends, not what you said!"
"Haha, ordinary friends? Ordinary friends all live together? Jiang Ran, I have been pursuing you for a month, but I didn't know you were such a woman." Liu Lu glanced at the two of them with a mocking look.
Jiu'er clenched his hands into fists and said angrily: "I'll give you three breaths. If you don't leave, I'll give you a ride."
Liu Hao glanced at her, and after some consideration, decided to leave first. However, just as he turned around and walked towards the courtyard door, a voice came from behind.
"Mr. Liu, I won't comment on your ability to get angry when you don't get what you want, but the poem you just read, if I'm honest, even if a three-year-old child wrote nonsense, it would be better than you!" Tang Ji
He folded his hands across his chest, with a teasing look in his eyes.
Liu Lu turned around suddenly. Although he was just a scholar, he was still a well-known person in Yunhuai County. The other party dared to humiliate him like this. He gritted his teeth and said, "Say it again if you dare!"
"I said your poetry is not good, it's rubbish, rubbish among rubbish." Tang Ji had no intention of compromising at all.
Jiang Ran looked at the bulging veins in Liu Lu's hands and was worried that things would get serious. He stretched out his hand and tugged on Tang Ji's clothes to signal him not to go too far.
After a while, Liu Lu still restrained the anger in his heart, stared at Tang Ji, and said sarcastically: "You said that my poems are not as good as children's works. I wonder what kind of poems you can come up with to impress me?"
He had participated in many poetry gatherings in the city, but he had never met each other. It was obvious that he was just a tough-talking boy!
Tang Ji yawned, and quickly browsed through the poems he had read from childhood to college in his mind. He raised his feet and circled around Jiang Ran, covering his chin with both hands, showing a thoughtful look.
Jiu'er curled his lips, and the storyteller said that the better the cook, the less talented he is. This guy's cooking is so delicious, but he may be a poet. On the contrary, he has to pretend to be in front of others. If you can't think of this,
If you use a good sentence, the lady will be embarrassed.
Watching Tang Ji circle around Jiang Ran twice, Liu Lang was even more sure that the other party was a bad guy, and sneered: "Is that okay? If not, don't be embarrassed. Next time you go out, remember to weigh your weight!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Ji lightly opened his red lips and said with a smile: "Clear water brings out hibiscus..."
