116.§§116 Orchid Heart
"Yes." Jiayu didn't feel sorry for Deng Xinlan at all, and answered without hesitation.
After Deng Xinlan heard this, the smile on her face did not fade, and she nodded: "Understood, then let's lift it." My father's side was up to me to convince me. ”
This girl's cheerfulness surprised Jiayu and Xinyi, after all, her father was so stubborn and had such a tough attitude, they really couldn't figure out why this Miss Deng would agree so quickly, and there was no trace of pain on her expression, and she didn't even ask "why".
Is it women's self-esteem? Or is it because she knows from the bottom of her heart that the Deng family can't afford to provoke the Han family after all?
However, Jiayu did not see a trace of negativity in this Miss Deng's expression, her smile was sincere and innocent, as if it were a rough stone, uncarved by worldly interests, and spotlessly pure.
Jia Yu felt a sense of guilt in his heart, because the divorced daughter's family, whether in ancient or modern times, was extremely hurt in face, and now he finally understood the reason why the head of the Deng family had such a tough attitude just now.
However, is face more important, or happiness more important?
Deng Xinlan looked at Jiayu, her smile became warmer, and if she looked closely, she could see that she was grateful: "Mr. Han is really a kind person, in fact, you have not done anything wrong, don't feel ashamed of me." ”
This Miss Deng also has a keen sense of observation and insight, Jia Yu was secretly surprised, he is not a person who lightly exposes his inner thoughts, even if he accidentally reveals it, it is only for a moment, but this moment of kung fu has been caught by her.
"I'm here to get out of the marriage, but you say I'm kind?"
"Yes, although the Deng family did lose face, you saved two women at the same time, so I said you are kind. Maybe I will be used as a laughing stock, but if you break faith in me, it may not be easy in the eyes of the world, so I said that you don't have to feel ashamed of me. She smiled, "We are in the same state of mind, and so are our burdens." Flattened. ”
"State of mind?"
"Yes, state of mind. Your heart has been filled with a girl, and you can no longer pretend to be someone else, and if you really make this marriage contract today, it will only become the misfortune of three people, am I right? ”
Jiayu admired: "That's right. ”
"An unhappy marriage will only make everyone an enemy, although it is the first time to meet Mr. Han, but I don't want everyone to become enemies, I want to make friends with Mr. Han."
What the Deng family lacks most now is friends, friends with status and status.
A friend is of course much better than an enemy, and a friend who appreciates your understanding, how can such a friend not stick a knife in your ribs?
This Miss Deng is not simple, she speaks decently, has a delicate mind, and is extremely smart. Jiayu sighed in his heart, he really underestimated the Deng family before.
He suddenly remembered a saying: "Try to let others underestimate you, but you should never underestimate anyone." ”
In fact, if this Miss Deng really marries into the Han family or the Ouyang family, it will only be a blessing for these two families, because she is really smart and empathetic, although she is not bright and moving, but she is meticulous and attractive. With such a woman standing beside her, no matter which man will feel decent.
Xinyi has never spoken, and she has grown rapidly in the year she has been with Jiayu and has learned a lot.
Talk less, listen more!
The more wrong the words, the more flaws.
Because she already knew that compared to this Miss Deng, she was as immature as a baby in swaddling clothes. Ouyang Jinhui is also extremely inferior to her.
But she couldn't stop "thinking"!
She was thinking that if the Han family and the Ouyang family knew that this Miss Deng was such a character early on, maybe they wouldn't have engaged in any competition of ten thousand souls, but would have rushed to propose marriage.
She was wondering, when she saw this Miss Deng's intelligence, did Jiayu feel regretful?
Jiayu suddenly grabbed Xinyi's hand, and his fingers were interlocked.
Xinyi looked at him and saw that there was appreciation and admiration in his eyes as he looked at Deng Xinlan, but that was all.
His tenderness and sweetness are only given to women who can fill his heart.
And now it is not Deng Xinlan who fills his heart, but her, Wu Xinyi.
"Of course, Miss Deng will always be our friend."
We? Deng Xinlan's gaze faintly swept over their clenched hands, and she smiled.
They are really the same kind of people, so they are destined to only be friends, and never to be lovers.
"Haven't asked the girl's name yet?" Deng Xinlan's soft gaze turned to Xinyi.
"Just call me Xinyi."
"Hehe, then you can also call me Xinlan." She looked at Jiayu again and smiled, "When the two of you get married, you must allow me to go over and disturb a glass of wine." ”
"Of course!" Jiayu also smiled, "Because we are friends." ”
We're friends -- Jiayu didn't say that against his heart. Because he has deeply understood the truth of "no one should be underestimated", and has long understood that people should not only make friends with status.
Just because Sun Yubo has made friends, even those who kill pigs and farmers can become good friends with him, so his position in the rivers and lakes is strong, even if he is as violent as King Wanpeng and as insidious as Lixiang Chuan, he can't shake it.
Jiayu suddenly asked, "Then I don't know what Miss Deng's plans are in the future?" ”
Deng Xinlan was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly understood the meaning of Jiayu's words, and in addition to admiration, there was more gratitude in her heart.
According to this man's clever Cheng Dù, she must have tasted from her words that she also has her own sweetheart, and she will readily agree to withdraw from the marriage, most likely for this sweetheart. He didn't mention it, he saved her face. If her father knew that his daughter was engaged to two families, and she still had other men in her heart, she would definitely be very angry.
In this way, the words of the head of the Deng family who accused Jiayu really became a self-defeating face.
Deng Xinlan is grateful, while persuading her father, she will definitely think of ways not to let the two families fall apart, so Jiayu's trip is not in vain.
Deng Xinlan's bright eyes suddenly dimmed, but they quickly covered up the past. She smiled: "I also have to learn to be in business to help my father." I also hope that Mr. Han will not hesitate to give advice. ”
Deng Xinlan didn't mention her sweetheart's affairs. Jiayu naturally has no intention of getting to the bottom of it.
"Of course, because we're friends."
The matter is over, Jiayu and Xinyi will no longer bother. The head of the Deng family didn't like to be disturbed by others under the pretext of reading, but in fact, he deliberately avoided it, and Jiayu didn't break it, but just nodded to Deng Xinlan.
Deng Xinlan sent them out of the courtyard, Jiayu glanced at the potted plants in the yard, and suddenly said: "Miss Deng, no matter how you take care of the orchids at home, you can't raise the orchids at home, next time I ask Xinyi to bring them, can you help me take a look?" ”
Deng Xinlan bowed slightly: "Of course you can." ”
On the way back, Xinyi asked him, "Do you want me to learn more from Miss Deng?" ”
The corners of Jiayu's mouth rose: "You're getting smarter and smarter." ”
"After absorbing your human essence, it's hard not to be smart."
Jiayu laughed out loud when she heard this, if she hadn't focused on driving, she would definitely have pecked her little face. The little ghost spirit has learned to make a pun.
But Xinyi's eyes darkened: "It's a pity that Miss Deng is not smart enough, otherwise you wouldn't let me learn from others." ”
"There is no harm in learning more."
"Who is spreading the word that Miss Deng is 'uglier than a pig'? Alas! Seeing is believing and hearing is false, this is really true, people can't stop believing rumors. ”
Jiayu smiled bitterly: "That's right. ”
Xinyi suddenly looked at him and asked, "You say...... If Ouyang Jinyu knew what Miss Deng was, would she regret it? ”
Jiayu twisted his eyebrows: "Why did you mention him?" ”
Because I wanted to ask you, but I didn't dare to ask you. I know in my heart that you won't regret it, but you'll still be afraid.
"Do you think he'll regret it?"
Jiayu suddenly pulled over and stopped the car.
Holding her in the face, he said, "I will not mention him, let alone think of him, and from now on he will be air—no, more than air." "Man can't live without air, so—" He's nothing! ”
"I didn't think about him, I hated that he was too late, how could I miss him." She smelled vinegar.
"I said he's nothing, delete him from the recycle bin in your mind completely."
The escalation of hate is hate, hating a person is often stronger than loving someone, and it is easier to settle in the heart, so he is not allowed.
"Hey, why are you so domineering, I can't even hate people?"
"No, I can't. I'm domineering, I'm going to be domineering to you in this life, are you not convinced? ”
"Not convinced."
She was immediately gagged by Jiayu.
After a while, the car started up.
"No regrets." He knew she was thinking nonsense again, so he answered.
"Why?"
"Because we're the same kind of people on a great scale."
So they definitely can't become lovers, and they may initially be attracted to each other because they appreciate each other's intelligence, but it's hard to last long. No one wants to keep a little bit of their own private space, and no one wants to be known.
The fate of Wen Zhong and Han Xin is a good example, just because their king thinks they know too much.
"Oh." Xinyi didn't seem to understand, and she was afraid that he would park again, so she didn't ask anymore.
The car drove for a while, and she asked again, "Where are you going to find a pot of dying orchids?" ”
Jia Yu smiled: "You really stopped me." It can be seen that people like us sometimes speak without thinking. ”
People like us, he stressed.
So, Xinyi, don't think you're any worse than Deng Xinlan.
"Do you have any friends or acquaintances?"
"Nope."
"Not a single one?"
"Nope."
He sighed again: "Just because a person who is willing to spend time and effort to cultivate flowers and plants must be very lonely in his heart." ”
Deng Xinlan is very lonely.
After getting along with her for a long time, Xinyi had to admire Jiayu's insights.
When Xinyi went alone for the first time, she didn't bring the dying orchid, Deng Xinlan seemed to know, and she didn't care.
Jiayu said: "You should think of it as a visit between friends." ”
It's always nice to have a friend come to visit, and that means you haven't been forgotten yet.
Now that it's summer vacation, Xinyi has more time to hang out and take her around. Because Xinyi found that although this girl has far-reaching knowledge, she has not been to many places.
They soon became talkative.
And it didn't take long for Deng Xinlan to finally confide in her heart and tell Sù Xinyi the boy she had been hiding in her heart.
She said they had only seen it a few times when they were very young in a small park, which has long since been turned into a commercial house.
Then Xinyi saw Deng Xinlan's personal Jade Guanyin.
Mutton fat white jade, warm and delicate, like clotted fat. She said that there should have been two pieces of jade, and that she had given one of them to the boy that year.
The gift of jade between men is a celebration of friendship, and the gift of jade between men and women is a lifelong promise.
It's just that she doesn't know where the boy is now, so she's lonely.
When Jiayu heard Xinyi's description, he suddenly remembered something.
