Strange Tales of the Ghosts

Putuo Temple was full of pilgrims. It didn’t take much effort to identify which woman was the daughter of the Liu family. Just by looking at her clothes, she knew she was from a wealthy family. Looking carefully, Liu Yu still had some personality. Beautiful, this makes Ao She happy. Although it is a fake show, it is worth celebrating. Following the plan, Ao She walked towards Liu Yu and bumped into her seemingly accidentally.

"Ah, why didn't you look at the road? You were running rampant and bumped into my young lady." Before the master could say anything, the little maid beside Liu Yu became anxious.

Ao She smiled and saluted, "Young man is rude, I hope you won't blame me."

"Young master, you don't have to blame yourself. I don't blame you for being crowded." Liu Yu looked up and saw that the man in front of her was a handsome young man with handsome features and gentle manners. He didn't look like a man who was like a bee or a butterfly, so he said shyly smiled.

Ao She smiled and replied: "Thank you very much, Miss. I won't disturb you for your incense." After saying that, Ao She left a handsome figure on his back.

Liu Yu looked at it and was suddenly in a trance. The little maid saw it and smiled quickly: "Miss, you must have fallen in love with that young man, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Liu Yu smiled, took the incense and entered the hall.

After burning the incense, Liu Yu took her maid on her sedan and returned to the Liu family. Just when she was thinking about something, suddenly, the sedan jolted and stopped. Liu Yu held up the curtain and asked, "Yun'er. ,What's up?"

"Miss, look." The maid smiled and pointed at the blocker in front of her. Liu Yu raised her head and saw the man she had seen in the temple. She saw the man holding a crying child. Apparently, the child was blocking the sedan. When she was almost hit by a reckless sedan bearer, the man came to the rescue. With a smile on her face, Liu Yu put down the curtain of the sedan chair and ordered: "Slow down, don't hurt anyone."

"Yes, Miss." Yun'er's maid is really smart and has already seen that Liu Yu has a crush on the man. Besides, how can a good-looking man be unlovable? But Yun'er didn't see it clearly in the temple just now. Only people can be so cruel.

Ao She didn't look at Liu Yu, but handed the child back to the child's parents, leaving only Liu Yu's back. Liu Yu didn't know that they would see each other again, so he couldn't let go of what he was thinking about.

After nightfall, the Liu Mansion hosted a banquet in honor of prominent people in Jin'an County. The banquet was in the name of appreciating chrysanthemums, but it was actually just a matter of discussing business. Even so, Liu Yu had to attend because she was nearly ten years old. 8. The family is anxious to find a suitable husband for her. After dressing up, Liu Yu sat in front of the mirror, lost in thought. The maid Yun'er walked up and said with a smile: "Miss, I have urged you several times."

"I know." Liu Yu smiled. When she saw herself in the mirror, she thought of that man, which made her feel a little incredible.

Yun'er was a clever person. He could see Liu Yu's thoughts and said teasingly, "Is it possible that the young lady has fallen in love with a certain young master and doesn't want to find anyone else?"

"You're the only one who talks so much." Liu Yu gently tapped Yun'er's forehead with her hand and laughed.

The two came to the garden where the banquet was held. They saw that the place was full of dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, and many children from rich families were chatting happily. At this time, Liu Yucheng saw his daughter appear and hurriedly pulled Liu Yu over and introduced: "Xiaoyu, come on, I'll give it to you." Please introduce, this is Mr. Fang’s son, and this is Uncle Li’s son…”

Smiling and nodding frequently, Liu Yu couldn't remember the appearance of those people. She was just polite. No matter whether others were complimenting or making remarks, she always responded with a smile. After the introduction, Liu Yucheng greeted those people to drink and chat, which was very lively.

At this moment, suddenly the servant came to report that a young man named Ao came outside the door and asked to see Liu Yucheng. When Liu Yucheng heard this, he thought about who the visitor was. Because he had never met any young master named Ao, after thinking for a while, he was afraid of neglecting the visitor, so he hurriedly said: "Invite me."

"Yes, sir." The servant went out after being ordered, and soon brought Ao She in.

When Liu Yu saw it was Nao She, her face immediately turned red. Nao She seemed not to have seen Liu Yu, and walked straight towards Liu Yucheng, smiling and saying: "I came uninvited, so I'll prepare a small gift for Liu Yu." Master, take it."

"This is..." Naturally, Liu Yucheng had never seen Ao She, but the box seemed to have some background, so a smile appeared on his face. "Master Nao, why are you so polite? Come here, please invite Mr. Nao to sit down."

"Master Liu, why don't you open it and take a look?" Ao She looked at Liu Yucheng with a smile.

Liu Yucheng hesitated and opened the box sent by Aoshe in front of everyone. The moment he took off the lid, everyone's eyes seemed to be fixed, because in the box was a star they had never seen before. They had never seen a big pearl before. Even if it was a tribute, they had never heard of such a big pearl. This made Liu Yucheng surprised and happy: "Why do you need to spend so much money, Mr. Bo?"

"Compared to your love, this is not a treasure." Ao She smiled slightly and looked at Liu Yu.

At this time, everyone looked at Liu Yu and started whispering to each other. Even Liu Yucheng was confused. He hurriedly walked to Liu Yu and asked softly: "Do you know Mr. Ao?"

"So." Liu Yu blushed and lowered her head.

Liu Yucheng was not stupid, of course he understood about 70% of the time. The purpose of Mr. Nao's visit was for Liu Yu. After another look, he saw that Nao She had a dignified appearance and extraordinary bearing. Looking at his clothes, he was either rich or noble. Busy laughing. He said: "Come here, please invite Mr. Ao to the table." This shout was louder than before, and everyone cheered. During the banquet and chatting, they finally got to know this young master named Ao, and learned that Mr. Ao She The family is engaged in overseas business and makes a living by selling pearls. Speaking of which, this is considered a big business on the coast. Everyone is envious when they hear this. Even those who want to marry the Liu family have to step aside.

After dinner, some people dispersed, while others stayed in the garden, drinking wine and admiring chrysanthemums. Then, Liu Yu couldn't see Ao She, so she hurriedly called the maid Yun'er: "Yun'er

, where has Mr. Ao gone? "

"Go back to Miss, Young Master Ao has been gone for a while."

"Leaving?" Liu Yu felt a little disappointed after hearing this.

Yun'er laughed out loud: "Miss, are you afraid that he will leave and never come back?"

"Yun'er..." Liu Yu frowned. She didn't know why Ao She left, so she was worried. She was worried that Ao She would leave in anger after hearing bad things from others. After all, today There were also several young masters who came who wanted to get married to her. Thinking about it, Liu Yu felt uneasy. "Yun'er, send someone to find out where Mr. Nao lives."

"Miss, even if you want to inquire, you have to ask tomorrow. Look at today..." Yun'er pointed to the moon in the sky.

Liu Yu bit her lip and said coquettishly, "You girl!" After saying that, she went back to the house sulking.

Liu Yucheng saw all this. To be honest, in his opinion, Mr. Nao was indeed a good candidate. The reason why he did not keep Ao She was because he still had doubts about Ao She's family status. Because he had never heard of such a family in the county, he came here rashly. Although there was a pearl to open the way, he could not take it lightly. He had to wait until he found out more about it before making any plans.

A few days later, Liu Yucheng finally figured out the details of Aoshe. He learned that Aoshe's ancestors had lived in Jin'an County, and there were some people who knew about it. Liu Yucheng felt relieved. After all, he lived in a big house in the county. He could give such a big pearl generously. If he was a liar, Liu Yucheng calculated that Mr. Nao must be doing a loss-making business. After thinking about it, Liu Yucheng came to Liu Yu's room.

"Xiaoyu..."

"Dad." Liu Yu turned around and saw Liu Yucheng, and hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Liu Yucheng touched his beard and laughed: "In recent days, I heard from the maid that you can't eat. Are you worried about something?"

"My daughter just felt cold occasionally, it's not a problem." Liu Yu helped Liu Yucheng to a stool and poured Liu Yucheng a cup of tea.

Liu Yucheng couldn't tell that his beloved daughter was like a father, but he couldn't just say it. It would make Liu Yu lose face, so he mentioned it tactfully: "Hey, it's strange to say that the one who came here a few days ago Mr. Ao, you haven't come back these days. Could it be that Mr. Ao has something urgent at home and can't get away..." As he spoke, he shook his head anxiously.

Liu Yu heard Liu Yucheng mentioning Ao She and asked nervously: "How did dad know?"

"Oh, when he left that day, he told me that he would visit again in a few days, but this time, there was no news. He sent someone to..."

"Dad, you sent someone to look for it, but couldn't find it?"

"..." Liu Yucheng shook his head.

Liu Yu was so anxious that she grabbed Liu Yucheng's clothes and said coquettishly: "Dad, you should talk to your daughter."

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Dad sent someone to post a message, saying that he would be celebrating his birthday in a few days and invited him to come over." Liu Yucheng patted Liu Yu's hand gently and laughed.

Liu Yu asked shyly: "Then what did he say?"

"Mr. Nao said he would definitely come."

"Is what dad said true?"

"How could dad lie to you?" Liu Yucheng laughed loudly: "How could I deceive my daughter about her life-long event? I'm just afraid that you won't be satisfied..."

"Who says I'm not satisfied?" Liu Yu said it quickly, her face turning red again.

Liu Yucheng knew what his daughter's family was thinking, so he couldn't say more, so he reminded: "Xiaoyu, what your mother means..."

"Don't you agree, mother?"

"Your mother didn't say she didn't agree, she just said that you like it." Liu Yucheng was afraid that Liu Yu would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said it. It's not because Liu Yu was not close to her mother. It's just that as soon as Liu Yu was born, her mother She contracted a strange disease and became crazy, sometimes normal and sometimes talking crazy words. In order to prevent her mother from scaring Liu Yu, Liu Yucheng never let Liu Yu see her mother since she was a child. He locked her mother up in a room and allowed no one to see her except herself and the maid who delivered the food.

Liu Yu breathed out: "Yeah."

"Then you prepare for the next two days. If you don't like your daily clothes, just make another one. Then, don't let Mr. Ao see the joke." Liu Yucheng is also a person who cares about face, and a noble man like Mr. Ao , he couldn't let others underestimate him, Liu Yucheng. In this way, even if Liu Yu married, Liu Yucheng would not be at ease.
