"I know somewhat, when I was in Changsha before, she would come to my house when she was free to accompany me and Mrs. Deng to work. More or less will talk about some previous things, although it is very trivial, but it can be strung together after a long time. Aunt Xu sighed: "This girl is really pitiful, she will come to a point today, in fact, it is a last resort." Who doesn't want to live a life where they can eat and stretch their hands?"

"That's what Mother said!" Xu Shu responded.

Even so, she never said anything bad about her mother. But if you really love your daughter, will you let your four- or five-year-old daughter live with cows and horses? Although she is fleeing, although the living conditions are poor, but in the end, is it her own daughter, sleeping in her own bed, and her daughter sleeping in the cowshed, is it her own daughter?"

"But do you know what that silly girl said? She said she had loved those beasts since she was a child, and that she could sleep with them. They will protect her and accompany her. ”

Xu's mother continued to count Gan's while gesturing with a ruler on her son: "My daughter reads well, but she thinks that she will be stupid if she reads too much, so she lets the nine-year-old child learn to weave, and the girl sits on the loom, and her legs can't reach the pedal." But the silly girl said that thanks to Weaver Niang's patience and willingness to teach, she was able to learn so well. ”

"Hey...... This kid ...... It's always happy, but the things I say are ...... In her opinion, as long as there is no food and clothing, it is a good life. But she's the general's daughter, shouldn't she be Miss Qianjin?"

Xu Shu was speechless for his mother's questioning. According to her mother's discussion, Liu Yan could only deduce that the Gan family was strict with her, and there was no trace of the emperor's uncle. So, where does Liu Yan's hatred for the emperor's uncle come from?

"Mother, did she never mention Uncle Huang?" asked Xu Shu tentatively.

"That's not true, Uncle Huang has been fighting outside, and he rarely sees each other, so he doesn't go on a blind date. Mother Xu said as a matter of course.

Is that all? Xu Shu was noncommittal when he heard this. If she just ignores and doesn't go on a blind date, how can Liu Yan say the words "you can't live as his daughter"? There must be something else hidden here.

Soon Xu's mother finished her work and let her son out.

Xu Shu came to the study, but he didn't have the heart to deal with the official documents, nor did he have the heart to read the book, and his mind was full of scenes where Liu Yan had just "proposed" to him.

"Hey...... What should I do? I can't marry you!" Xu Shu sighed to himself.

On the other side, after Xu Shu left, Liu Yan was paralyzed on the ground and did not move for a long time. She was rejected by the teacher, right, right? What should she do now? All her face was torn off, or she was rejected, what else could she think?

In the future, how should she face him? I'm afraid that it will be even more embarrassing to meet again?

When the window paper of the crush is pierced, unless the ending is a happy relationship, or you have to be mentally prepared to die and never get along. Like Liu Yan, if you look up and don't see what you look down, that's what makes you miserable.

It's just that today's Liu Yan, the filial piety period has passed, and the protective color of the underage on her body has faded, and it is normal to talk about marriage in sixteen or seventeen, and her personal problems are indeed not suitable for delay.

Even if it is inconvenient for his subordinates to mention it, but in private, Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong, Sima Hui and other Jingzhou celebrities who have a good personal relationship with Liu Yan are much more straightforward.

Huang Chengyan saw that his daughter was a lobbyist as a sister-in-law, but he couldn't move Liu Yan, but he mentioned that Liu Yan and Jingzhou's future was secretly worried.

A few old guys combined, it is not possible to go on like this, in case Cao Cao preempts, a big war is inevitable, although even if he does not use this reason, it is extremely convenient for Cao Cao to go south for the second time. The holy purpose is in his hands, he can write as he wants, isn't it easy to make up a crime?

But for these upper-class people in Jingzhou, they avoided the reason for resisting marriage, and the other reasons were not afraid of him making a fuss.

So, it was Sima Hui who came forward and invited Liu Yan and Xu Shu to participate in the tea party in the name of master and apprentice.

They didn't know that the pair of masters and apprentices had already made a fuss about this matter, so Sima Hui's handwritten invitation was sent to Liu Yan, and when she saw the content, she couldn't cry or laugh for a while: he had just been rejected by him, and instead wanted to go to the tea party with him, which was really embarrassing with a capital letter.

But it's not okay to say no. Sima Hui's identity was there, he had a great favor to himself, and Liu Yan couldn't refuse his invitation. But if she wants to invite Xu Shu to go with her, this is a bit difficult for a strong person.

Liu Yan thought about it and decided to go to the appointment alone, Sima Hui asked, so he shirked it and said that Xu Shu had something else to do.

Who knew that Sima Hui's invitation letter was also given to Xu Shu, because if he was invited as a master and apprentice, of course, the invitation letter should be sent to the teacher, and the teacher would bring the students to attend, and there was no reason for the students to bring the teacher to attend.

The invitation letter to Liu Yan is mainly because Liu Yan's status is high, and she is a dignified sister, Her Royal Highness the princess, so she naturally has to be respected.

Xu Shu didn't have such embarrassment as Liu Yan, his idea was very simple, since he had already refused, he had to show his attitude to be more normal, how he got along before, and how he got along now. In this way, the apprentice can understand that the master-apprentice relationship is already the strongest relationship between people, and no matter what happens, you are my disciple, and you can only be my disciple.

With this thought, Xu Shu caged the invitation in his sleeve and came to see Liu Yan calmly.

Liu Yan was completely unprepared that Xu Shu would ask to see her, it was embarrassing to see her, and it was not good not to see her, but it made both sides more suspicious and thoughtful. Hey, I'll see you anyway.

Liu Yan sighed secretly and ordered, "Please invite him in and see you in the outer study." ”

After a while, Liu Yan slowly came to the outer study, saw Xu Shu, and couldn't help but think of the scene of being rejected by him, and wanted to pretend to be casual and call out to the teacher, but he looked at the people so fixedly, opened his mouth, grinded his teeth, and the word "teacher" was swallowed back in his mouth.

When Xu Shu saw her coming, he couldn't help but be embarrassed and took the initiative to salute: "Your Royal Highness the Princess." ”

When Liu Yan saw him like this, she knew his intentions. I felt uncomfortable, so I didn't open my eyes: "Is there something wrong with the military advisor coming to see me at this time?" The implication of her words was: Even if there is a big event, you should know that I don't want to see you before the next regular meeting begins.

This is the first time Xu Shu has heard her speak to herself in such a hard tone. sighed secretly: Sure enough, this kind of thing just can't be delayed for too long, if he finds out his abnormality earlier, maybe he can kill this doomed crush early, it's because he was too dull to find out that she had moved her daughter's mind early in the morning.

Xu Shu thought so, but he didn't blame Liu Yan for being willful and rude! instead, he patiently took out the invitation letter in his sleeve and handed it to Liu Yan: "Fang Cai, Decao sent someone to send the invitation letter, which stated that we want to appear at the same time as master and apprentice, what do you think?"

Liu Yan wanted to say that I wouldn't go, but thinking about Mr. Shuijing's invitation, I always had to give him some face, so I still had to go.

It's just that Xu Shu's sentence "I hope we will appear as master and apprentice" stabbed her heart again, making her already unnatural face a little whiter.

I knew it would be awkward to meet you now, and every word you uttered that would normally sound normal would now turn into a knife into my heart. If I talk to you more, there will be an extra hole in my heart, and I can feel the blood all over my body accumulating in the direction of my heart, as if there is a big hole there that cannot be filled.

Xu Shu had been observing Liu Yan's expression, and when he saw that her face was pale, he thought that she was still sad about being rejected by herself. He is also very helpless, after all, the master married an apprentice, and the difference between the two is more than ten or twenty years old. Xu Shu felt that he would not be able to make this decision no matter what.

Thinking about it, his gray hair can't be covered quickly, and his beard has traces of gray. But what about Liu Yan? She is only 16 years old, and she is in the prime of her life. How could he be delayed by a person like him who was about to rotten wood? (The ancients called the old man forty, and Xu Shu was in his thirties and nearly forty at that time)

Therefore, Xu Shu rejected Liu Yan with an iron heart, and did not intend to give her any illusions from now on. Seeing that she didn't respond, she continued ruthlessly: "Since the princess has acquiesced, then this matter is decided, and when the time comes, I will come to the princess's mansion for the teacher, and you and I will go together." There is still something going on in the general's mansion, so I will go back for the division. ”

After speaking, he bowed his hand to Liu Yan, which means hurry up, let me go!

Liu Yan was speechless the whole time, Xu Shu's appearance made her thoughts all knotted, and she didn't know how to express herself. According to her plan, it is best to go back to calm down for a while, clean up your mood, and adjust your state.

Xu Shu finally waved his sleeves and walked away without taking away a cloud, leaving Liu Yan alone to look at Xu Shu's back, where he couldn't see, two lines of hot tears finally flowed down when he walked farther and farther.

Why do I find out now that I like you so much? It's too late to say anything, you have made a vow before the gods that you will never marry for the rest of your life, and you will never waver. You and I will never be able to.

Liu Yan thought that Xu Shu didn't marry her, first, because she couldn't let go of the scandal that the teacher hooked up with the student, so she refused. It is also possible that he swore in front of the gods early that he would not marry, and he was afraid that he would break his vows!

On the day when Sima Hui's family held a tea party, Sima's mansion was full of high-ranking friends, and it was very lively.

When the little girl called out Princess Yiyang and Mr. Xu, almost all the people present turned their heads to look at them.

Liu Yan always kept her head down, wary of her distance from Xu Shu.

Sima Hui was the first to feel that something was wrong with the master and apprentice, but it was not easy to say anything on the scene, so he could only silently remember it in his heart.

Liu Yan followed behind Xu Shu all the way, like a little heel, which was somewhat angry.

Isn't that what you mean? You brought me to the tea party, I am your apprentice, and I should listen to you.

In that case, then I will follow you all the way, and let you know that you can't get rid of me no matter what.

At this time, Liu Yan had been upset by Xu Shu's repeated refusals, and she was completely irrational. Except for going against Xu Shu, she couldn't think of anything she could do to attract Xu Shu's attention again.

Xu Shu didn't understand the temper of these children of hers, and only felt that she knew that the apprentice was actually really easy to bring after a trip, and the most difficult thing to communicate with was actually herself.

spent a lot of time doing mental construction and consulting a lot of people who "have apprentices", and finally made him feel that Liu Yan's apprentice was the best, quiet and leisurely. Even if you are extremely unhappy, you still have to give your partner a generous reward on the surface.

When the two walked in one after the other, Sima Hui waited at the door early and invited Liu Yan into the general's mansion.

As soon as I entered, I saw Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong and other cadres eagerly looking forward to it. Immediately gave up the idea of working against the teacher, and obediently stepped forward to greet: "Two gentlemen......"

"Your Royal Highness Princess......" They hurriedly got up to greet them.

"Excuse me, hurry up and excuse me, a few people are seated. Liu Yan grabbed a few steps.

"The princess has been fine lately, Jingzhou has been peaceful recently, and the princess is also very leisurely. ”

"Yes, yes, the princess was very busy some time ago, and I had to wait in line for a long time to ask for a meeting, and I don't know what year and month outsiders will be pushed to see her!"

Everyone said kind words and talked to Liu Yan. Liu Yan was perfunctory without a word, obviously absent-minded, and her mind was still on Xu Shu now.

After greeting each other for a while, Huang Chengyan seemed to have just remembered now: "Her Royal Highness the princess came back to Xiangyang, when did you come back?"

"Is that the time when the Cao thief went south?" Liu Yan replied nonchalantly.

"It's the old man's gaffe, and the old man asks for the first time. I wonder if the princess remembers?"

"I remember! I was only ten years old at the time, and I followed my brother to find his teacher all the way to Xiangyang. Liu Yan didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

But in the next second, Huang Chengyan's question made Liu Yan a little uncomfortable. Because he said: "The first time I met, you gave me a lot of shocking pictures that are still unforgettable, and now more than ten years have passed, and the milk doll that stinks at the beginning is now graceful, but I don't know which young talent, the prince and grandson have this blessing, and become your guest of the scene?"

If it were usual, Liu Yan would not be too vigilant about such words, and she would have heard the laughter and laughter. After all, this was said by Huang Chengyan. He's also a notoriously poisonous tongue, and he won't mind at all.

But this time is different, this time she just suffered the pain of being abandoned, any slightest wind and grass will make her more alert, Huang Chengyan's words are similar to what Sister Yue'er said, it is really worthy of being father and son.

Liu Yan's face changed immediately, and she peeked at Xu Shu, but saw that he was far away from him, chatting with another wave of people, and suddenly the whole person was not good.

Are you so desperate to get rid of me? Are you so impatient? I said I wouldn't disturb your life, and we could even go back to our respective homes, but you rejected me. Since you want to get rid of the relationship, then you don't even want the master-apprentice relationship, you don't know me, I don't know you, wouldn't it be more convenient? )
