Su Qingyuan, who was being held by his beloved daughter, was sitting alone on the stone bench outside the house at this time, holding a green book in one hand and hanging idly on his waist with the other.

Tomorrow will be the day he will leave for the Western Regions. I don't know what I remembered, Su Qingyuan suddenly removed his gaze that had been glued to the book for a long time and looked at the moon hanging high in the ceiling, and sighed lowly.

"Sir, it's windy at night, beware of getting cold. Xu Lian, who pushed the door out of the house, lightly put on a cloak for Su Qingyuan, with tenderness in her eyes, but what she got was a polite and distant response.

"Thank you. ”

Hearing this, Xu Lian's soft smile on her face became a little bitter, she opened her mouth but didn't say anything more, and sat down after putting on the cloak for Su Qingyuan.

Originally, Xu Lian happily agreed to go to the capital with Su Qingyuan under the idea of enhancing the relationship between husband and wife, but after leaving Yizhou, she realized that this was not the case at all, Su Qingyuan decided to take her with her, but she just wanted to find an excuse for her to leave Yizhou and leave his precious daughter Su Qi, who was holding on the tip of his heart. The funny thing is that she left a pair of young children and entered Beijing with Su Qingyuan, and the truth in exchange for this is the case.

Su Qingyuan really treats her very well, cares for her everywhere, and always abides by his duties as a husband, except for the love of husband and wife, he gives everything he can. Xu Lian sometimes can't help but comfort herself, what is she not satisfied with? She is a concubine, and she can meet a good husband like Su Qingyuan, what many people can't dream of, she should be satisfied, what else can she not be satisfied with?

The outline of the moon faded, and the morning light illuminated the clouds on the horizon and cast a light on everything under the zenith.

Su Qi stepped on the morning light and started another day that was no different from many previous days.

"I heard that a young lady of the Lin family has found trouble with you?" Chu Ning, who was demonstrating painting skills for Su Qi, said casually.

Su Qi was not surprised why Chu Ning heard the news so quickly, listening to Chu Ning's tone, she didn't seem to be worried about being bullied at all, Su Qi couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart, "I met by chance while wandering, so I said a few more words." ”

The corners of Chu Ning's lips suddenly raised a smile, "Just a few more words?" I heard that Miss Lin cried at her father and mother for a long time after returning home, and the beam between you is over." Originally, I wasn't a talker, but your parents weren't around, so it's better to pay more attention to some things. ”

Xiao Qi wrote it down. ”

Chu Ning glanced at Su Qi with some amusement, "You girl, you said that you wrote it down, but in fact, the next time you meet her, you still won't leave her a little affection." Just like you dared to accept the invitation of those ladies to compete in the Xu family, if you didn't decide that you could win, and the background of those people could not pose too much threat to you, you would still be able to endure that momentary anger. What's more, you know that your backstage is no smaller than theirs. ”

At this time, Su Qi's eyes were almost the size of a bull's eye, "Sir, why are you-"

"How do I understand you so well, don't I?" Chu Ning smiled even more happily, "You are my apprentice, can I still not see through that little bit of your heart?" Besides, those things between Master Su and the Xu family are not secrets, I noticed something strange. This time, your father took Xu Lian away, the purpose should be obvious, even after doing this, how could he not entrust the Xu family to protect your Su family?"

The latter sentence 'especially you' Chu Ning let it stay in his heart forever and didn't say it, in fact, the fact that the master of the Su family was particularly partial to his eldest daughter was also not a secret, and she didn't need to say more.

"There's one thing I can't guess, though. ”

It was extremely difficult for Su Qi to see the confused look on Chu Ning's face, and today was one of the few times, so he immediately put on a deaf look and looked at Chu Ning.

"You little girl, you seem ready to do something amazing. ”

Chu Ning's expression of seeing through it without saying anything saw that Su Qi was slightly ashamed, "I really can't hide anything from Mr." ”

After a period of getting along, Su Qi had already classified Chu Ning as one of the people who could be trusted, and he didn't twist it at the moment and said a rough idea of what he wanted to do, and the confused expression on Chu Ning's face became more and more serious when he heard it.

"I've really accepted an interesting apprentice, in fact, what you said is somewhat similar to those organizations that specialize in inquiring about intelligence on the rivers and lakes, but most of the news they inquire about and sell is some shady news, and naturally it is easy to provoke the vigilance of the government and attract enemies, but this of yours sounds ......"

Hearing this, Su Qi couldn't help but sigh, and his expression became serious.

"It sounds good, but I'm afraid it won't go too well. Now that you have this mind, I don't think it's better to reduce the classes a little bit in the future, so as not to overwhelm you. ”

"Sir......" Su Qizhen didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, it seemed that it was inappropriate to use any time, it was difficult to meet someone in this world who understood him and loved and admired him, fortunately she did.

"No matter how much you read horizontal and vertical books, no matter how much you learn skills, it is something outside the body after all, do what you want to do, I don't know how many people can hardly achieve the dream in a lifetime, I know, you know very well how you want to go on the road in the future. ”

"Xiao Qi, I just want to live differently than in the past. It's just that the 'past' in her mouth is different from the 'past' in Chu Ning's understanding.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then elaborated on the arrangement of the next homework, from the original five days off and one day off to school four days off and two days off.

After a day's class, Su Qi took Cui Luo to Jiang Tiesheng's place again, she never thought that she could persuade Jiang Tiesheng once, and she didn't completely persuade Jiang Tiesheng with her mouth.

This time, Su Qi did not lead Jiang Tiesheng to a secluded place with few people, but said what he wanted to say after seeing Jiang Tiesheng.

What she was going to say today was very short, and it sounded a little incomprehensible.

"Mr. Jiang, what do you say people live in the world like this, what are they for? Doing some repetitive things day after day and year after year, will it be too boring?" Su Qi didn't mean to stay for a long time, and after saying this, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Before she could take a step, she added, "I'll show you some results." ”

Why do you have to pull Jiang Tiesheng, Su Qi didn't think about this problem, in fact, what she has to do is not Jiang Tiesheng. It's just that...... She just, she just wanted to do it.

After leaving from Jiang Tiesheng's place, Su Qi began to prepare, locked himself in the room to write and draw for several hours, and called Cuiluo and Hongcao to talk together for a long time, and wrote a lot of words on the rice paper, before finally falling asleep satisfied.

The night is still very long.

Most of the lights in the Song family have been extinguished, but some people still have no sleep.

"I heard that the daughter-in-law candidate arranged by the Liu family for my good brother has been finalized?"

"Yes, they have already exchanged their birthdays, and they are the daughters of a nine-rank official, and it is said that they are still related to our wife. Although there is a family with an official status, not to mention the official position, the family background is also extremely poor. ”

"If there is no shortage of silver, you should agree to marry your daughter into a merchant family when those officials who believe in themselves are superior? However, Song Wuyi has such a daughter-in-law, which is also a help to him. ”

"Then ...... young master?"

In the dark night, a cold snort spat out from the man's thin lips, and then dispersed into the same cold night.

"If he likes beautiful women, then it would be good to marry a beautiful woman. ”
