Shu Yu, "..."
Wait, this voice seems familiar to her?
She stood aside for a moment and quickly recognized the person standing in front of Xu Cai.
It was a thin young man wearing coarse linen clothes, holding a bunch of wildflowers, with a bright smile on his face, and a somewhat handsome appearance that was quite likable.
However, this was only on the surface.
Meng Han asked in a low voice, "Who is he?"
Shu Yu sneered, "Ge Qifei."
Meng Han didn't immediately understand, but in the next moment, she remembered.
Ge Qifei? Wasn't he the one who ran over to break off the engagement with Lan Hua, the one who had a tofu business at home, after he learned that Shu Yu was exiled, fearing he might be implicated?
Although Meng Han had never met Ge Qifei, she had heard about him a long time ago.
She learned about him from Liang Shi. Since the approaching wedding date of Lan Hua and Yu Fenglin, Liang Shi had been very proud, as she was the one who persuaded Li Shi to agree to the marriage in the first place.
She considered herself half a matchmaker and loved to talk about it, inevitably mentioning the unreliable Ge Qifei during her discussions. Yesterday, when Meng Han arrived in Shishi Village, she heard others talking about him too. But on such a joyous occasion, mentioning that person felt ominous, so they quickly changed the subject after a brief comment.
Hence, Meng Han had only heard about Ge Qifei but hadn't seen him in person.
Who would have thought she would run into him like this, meeting with Xu Cai, Lan Hua's good friend?
"Could they be having an affair?" Meng Han asked in a hushed voice.
Shu Yu's lips twitched, and she also thought that this lush and tall sunflower field was surprisingly suitable for a private meeting between a man and a woman, just like the small woods behind the mountain.
Before she could answer, Ge Qifei spoke.
"How's it going? The Lu family's celebration must be lively today, right? Did you bring any food for me? I heard they have top-grade wine for their guests today. Where's the wine?"
Xu Cai pouted and grumbled, "Wine, wine, wine, that's all you think about. I have nothing. I quarreled with Lan Hua."
Ge Qifei's expression suddenly changed. "What did you say?"
Xu Cai hadn't noticed his change in demeanor and continued to complain, "Lan Hua is really clueless. I told her that Lu Xiangjun is not a good person, but she wouldn't believe me. Do you know what gift she gave Lan Hua as a dowry? A set of gold headwear. Lu Shuyu obviously favors Lan Hua so much; she treats her like a treasure. I..."
"You are truly crazy," Ge Qifei couldn't help but raise his voice.
Finally sensing something was wrong, Xu Cai raised her head and asked, "What do you mean? How am I crazy? Lu Shuyu is indeed not a good person. Didn't you say she threatened you?"
"It's because she threatened me that I know how dangerous she can be. Why do you still have to antagonize her? If Lan Hua tells her what you said, have you thought about the consequences?"
Ge Qifei's scalp was tingling as he still remembered the time he tried to act pitiful in front of the Lu family, hoping to gain Lan Hua's sympathy and convince her to reconsider the engagement. But he ended up being caught by Shu Yu herself.
She had just ordered her servant to throw him out without saying much.
