Chapter 070 Joint while it's free
He did not act immediately when he entered the door, but stood quietly, as if he was adapting to the darkness, or identifying whether Hyman was asleep.
After a while, he crept to the desk, lit up the fire folds, bent down with the faint firelight and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then took a few pieces of paper and crept out.
Haiman touched him and returned to the room, so he quietly went out and turned on the light. Sure enough, she saw that several pictures she drew in the afternoon were missing. She sighed slightly and went back to the room!
The next thing is left to Yuexiang. She is really tired and is going to sleep!
Yuexiang saw Meng Shu sneaking back into the room behind the door. After a quarter of an hour, she came to the small kitchen, brought out the herbal tea that had been prepared for a long time, and knocked on the door, "Brother Meng, open the door!"
Unexpectedly, there was a panicked and trivial voice. Meng Shu came over and opened the door unnaturally, "Ah, Miss Yuexiang, why haven't you slept so late? What's the matter with you?"
"Oh, when I saw that the light was still on in Brother Meng's room, I knew that you were reading again, so I came to send you some herbal tea to wake you up!" Yuexiang said and looked at him, "Don't Brother Meng want to invite me in?"
"This...in the middle of the night, lonely men and women are not good..."
Yuexiang touched him with a tray, "Oh, you are quite reserved. My daughter's family is not afraid. What are you afraid of?" Without waiting for his consent, he generously squeezed over from him, put the herbal tea on the table, pretended to glance inadvertently, and saw a picture of ink under the book.
Meng Shu hurried over, pretended to clean up the table, moved the book and pictures aside, and greeted Yuexiang, "Miss Yuexiang, sit down..."
Yuexiang helped him with a cup of tea and put it in front of him with a smile. "Don't sit down. Brother Meng still has to work hard. I won't bother you. I hope Brother Meng can get a reputation this year. Maybe I can get a credit with him!"
Meng Shu looked at her and then looked at her, and his face turned a little red. "Miss Yuexiang, you..."
"Then I'll go. Brother Meng should go to bed early. Don't stay up too late!" Yuexiang smiled at him and turned around and walked out.
Meng Shu stared at her figure disappearing behind the door and couldn't help but be infatuated. Why didn't he find it before? This Yuexiang girl was born with a delicate appearance, such a good heart, and looked very virtuous. And she seems to be interested in herself. If she can get a reputation in the future and marry such a daughter-in-law, wouldn't life be beautiful?
The more I thought about it, the more red my face became. I stood for a long time before I hurriedly took out the pattern and spread the paper to draw it again, but I was always uneasy and drew several wrong places in a row.
Hyman got up early the next morning and found that the pattern had been put back on the table. Yuexiang touched her and was about to get up, so she came to report the situation to her, "Miss, I have tried it last night. His room was lit all night. It was not until the fifth update that she sent the pattern back and went back to bed!"
Seeing her sleepy face, Hyman thought that he had been staring at Meng Shu all night and stroked her hair sadly. "Go and sleep for a while. Just leave the shop to Mei Xinger and Sister-in-law!"
"Hmm!" Yuexiang nodded and went back to her room to make up for sleep.
Haiman washed and walked around the shop. He saw Meng Shu leaning against the side of the counter and taking a nap, so he asked with a smile, "Meng Shu, didn't you sleep well at night?"
"Oh, the shopkeeper!" Meng Shu quickly straightened up and smiled shyly, "Isn't this approaching the scientific examination? I'm not sure. I don't feel at ease if I don't read more books, so I stay up late at night to read more.
"Well, but don't be too late. Isn't it useless to stay up late and hurt your body no matter how well you get in the exam?" Hyman chatted with him and called Mei Xinger aside. "Pay attention to Meng Shu. If he leaves the shop, come and tell me immediately!"
Mei Xinger blinked confusedly, "Miss, what's wrong? Why are you staring at Meng Shu?
"Don't ask, just stare at him, quietly and don't say anything." Hyman knew that Mei Xinger was straightforward. If she knew that Meng Shu stole the picture, she would jump up immediately and grabbed him to ask him clearly. At that time, she would not be able to find out the person behind the scenes!
Mei Xinger saw that Haiman looked a little serious, so she didn't ask any more and nodded, "Okay, I know!"
Unexpectedly, Meng Shu didn't leave the shop for a day today. Yes, communication is underdeveloped in this era. You can't call the contact person with one phone call. I'm afraid there is a fixed connection time between them!
In the afternoon, the big lily came in a fiery manner and took Hyman's hand and pleaded, "Sea shopkeeper, tonight is the day to choose the first card. Please dress up for me. Whether I can show my face or not depends on you!"
"I can only help with makeup. It's up to you whether you show your face or not!" Hyman smiled and greeted her to the back, first helped her get a haircut, and then carefully put on her makeup.
"Is this... still me?" Big Lily looked at the face in the mirror and opened her eyes in disbelief. She never knew that her eyes were so touching, and she was even a little intoxicated when she glanced in the mirror, not to mention those lustful stinky men?
Hyman asked Yuexiang to bring the clothes and help her change them, and the whole person looked more and more brilliant. This doubled the big lily's confidence. "I may be able to win the top card tonight!"
"Then I wish you success!" Hyman smiled and blessed her.
Big Lily looked in front of the mirror reluctantly, and then reluctantly took off her clothes, trying to surprise everyone at night.
"Sea shopkeeper, thank you so much. If I can find someone to redeem myself this time, I will definitely come and thank you!" The big lily left gratefully to Hyman.
Heiman saw her confident back go away and sighed slightly, "I hope she can find someone who can be entrusted for life!"
While talking, I saw a carriage coming quickly and stopped at the door of the shop. The driver jumped out of the car and picked up the curtain. He saw Qi Wenhao jump down first, and then Lin Yucheng came out, which made Hyman a little surprised!
"Brother Yucheng is here to apologize to you!" Qi Wenhao told her with a smile.
Haiman thought that the family thought that the world would be peaceful. She was also busy forgetting that matter. Unexpectedly, Lin Yucheng really came. It seemed that he was a good person!
Lin Yucheng ordered the clerk to propose several gifts from the car and looked at Haiman with apologetically. "Baoxuan sister-in-law, I'm really sorry for what happened that day. I'm not strict with my son. I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll make up for you and Miss Yuexiang!"
"Forget it!" They have apologized, so they have to forgive others. Hyman doesn't want to care about it. "Since you're here, Brother Yucheng will go into the room and sit down!" Invite the two people to the back and tell Yuexiang and Mei Xinger to prepare tea and snacks.
Lin Yucheng put the same gift on the table and solemnly apologized again, "These four snacks are shocking to Miss Yuexiang. These are good ginseng and Lingzhi, and they are for Baoxuan's sister-in-law. Please forgive Zhu Jing and the dog in large quantities. I have taught them a good lesson!"
"Forget it, let's go over the past!" Hyman smiled and didn't want to mention more about the Lin family, so he talked a few words.
Lin Yucheng probably also saw Hyman's indifference and felt bored. He got up to say goodbye. Hyman left four snacks and returned the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. Lin Yucheng refused to accept anything and left.
"Master, please take it back and return it to him!" Haiman just needs to ask Qi Wenhao.
Qi Wenhao took it over and said with a doting smile in his eyes, "You still have this nature. Well, I'll return it for you!"
Hyman thanked him and sent him out of the door. When he passed the shop, he found that Meng Shu was gone.
"Mei Xinger, where is Meng Shu?" She asked in a hurry.
Mei Xinger looked around and said, "I don't know. I just went to the kitchenette to prepare tea, and I didn't notice..."
Yuexiang hurried to Meng's study and took a look, "Miss, he's not there!"
"You really know how to find a gap!" Hyman frowned.
Qi Wenhao felt something was wrong, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"I'll talk to you about this later!" Hyman smiled and urged him, "Go quickly, the young master of the West Courtyard is still waiting for you!"
Qi Wenhao nodded, went out with gifts and got into the car, and left with Lin Yucheng.
Haiman walked around the shop and didn't see Meng Shu. He asked Chang Jiu. Chang Jiu said that he had just gone out and said that he was going to buy paper and ink. He didn't know which direction he was going.
There is never a shortage of pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the shop. Hyman is not a stingy person. He won't give it to him because he is a buddy, and he doesn't have to buy it. It's just a cover. I'm afraid it's time to connect!
"Yuexiang, you stare here!" Hyman ordered.
Moon Xiang was understanding and nodded, "Hmm!"
"What the hell is going on? In the past few days, Meng Shu came to Meng Shu. What's wrong with that Meng Shu? Mei Xinger looked at them confusedly.
"Oh, you will know then!" Yuexiang pushed her anxiously, "Do something quickly!"
While talking, Meng Shu came into the door with a pile of paper and an inkstone. Seeing several people staring at him together, his expression immediately became unnatural, "What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"
"It's okay, we're talking about something, and you suddenly came in!" Hyman smiled and covered up the matter. But I was a little annoyed that I couldn't catch the person who met him. It seems that I can only count on the old medicine head, or cheat him again!
She stepped back to the study. Before her buttocks were seated, she saw Qi Wenhao hurried back again. She couldn't help but be surprised, "Why are you back again?"
Qi Wenhao looked at her with a serious expression, "When I walked halfway, I saw the Meng Shu exchange something with a clerk. I seemed to recognize that guy..."
