281: Third cousin-in-law
I don't know when the rain started again.
Xia Wen looked at the rain-washed trees in the yard, and suddenly felt a kind of loneliness and desolation.
Why didn't the second aunt let her go to see the second uncle?
She was a little scared......
In just a few years, she will be in time.
But now, he has not come to the door to propose.
On the day Xia Ruan got married, it is said that many dignitaries came, but the second aunt did not let her go out and walk around. Naturally, she didn't have a chance to meet these people.
Xia Wen tightened her palms, she couldn't just sit still like a caged bird.
The second aunt doesn't believe her anymore, so she has to rely on herself for the next thing.
But how do you rely on yourself? Xia Wen rubbed her eyebrows with a little headache.
She turned her eyes to look at Yahuan standing not far away, and felt a little angry in her heart.
She felt uncomfortable, and they didn't want to be comfortable.
Thinking of this, Xia Wen slowly stood up, then took out the umbrella and prepared to go out.
"Fourth Miss, where are you going?" Mother Wan saw that Xia Wen wanted to go out and walk around, so she couldn't help frowning, "There are people watching outside." ”
Mother Wan's words made Xia Wen shudder, she almost forgot that she had been under house arrest by her second aunt for a long time.
A few days ago, she couldn't go out for a walk. Later, she got tired of this kind of life and felt that life was worse than death, so she wanted to find a short-term vision. Because she was bent on death, the second aunt was slightly moved. Now she can go out and walk around, but she is always accompanied by a lot of maids.
Xia Wen thought it was ridiculous. How did she end up like this?
After thinking for a while, Xia Wen still held up the umbrella: "I want to go out for a walk, Mother Wan, you have to come with you, if you don't want to follow, wait for me in the yard." What's the point of living like this? ”
After speaking, Xia Wen walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
She held an umbrella, but she didn't let the girl ring behind her do so.
Today is the day when Xia Ruan returns to the door, and Xia Wen always feels very uncomfortable in her heart for some reason. It's like someone, pulling her heart with all his might. Then he grabbed her by the throat. It made her feel not only pain in her heart, but also difficulty breathing.
Xia Ruan, Xia Ruan...... These two words are forbidden words in her heart.
She hates. She was extremely resentful.
Why can Xia Ruan have today's status. Why can Xia Ruan marry so well. Why can Xia Ruan have so much dowry. Obviously, they are all young ladies of the Xia family, but Xia Ruan's everything is better than her.
Willing? Of course, it is unwilling.
Xia Wen held an umbrella and walked on the bluestone-paved road.
The maid ring behind her was a little bitter. Xia Wen has a strange temper, she likes to go out and walk around when it rains. She plays the umbrella herself, but she does not allow the little girls to play the umbrella, and the little girls will definitely suffer from the cold.
"Brother Jiu, you actually want to go to Haitang Garden to pick up your sister-in-law in person? Tut-tut, how can you become a saint as soon as you get married. ”
As soon as the words fell, a purple figure appeared in the corridor.
The man was dressed in purple and embroidered with gold and silver thread on the pattern of bamboo leaves. If a person who has no temperament wears this dress, he will feel too plain. But this dress, worn on the man's body, makes the man's skin as flawless as fine mutton fat jade, and there is a faint smile in his eyes, and the whole person looks cold and noble.
In Xia Wen's mind, a few words appeared: Ruyu boy, amazing and unparalleled.
This person felt familiar to her, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while.
Xia Wen stopped, and her eyes became more and more intense.
Who the hell is this person? Can he marry......
For a while, Xia Wen thought of countless possibilities, each of which was related to this man.
"Hey......" Xia Wen finally couldn't help but call out to the man, and before she could speak, another man in Tsing Yi followed behind the man.
She was stunned for a moment.
Wen Zhonghuai almost fell around the corner, but Xiao Jiu didn't care about him at all, and still didn't slow down. Wen Zhonghuai was a little angry, and he didn't catch up with Xiao Jiu when his pace slowed down.
Soon, Wen Zhonghuai heard a girl's voice.
He thought that Xia Ruan had sent someone to look for them, so he hurriedly walked up, but found that the person who spoke was not the maid ring next to Xia Ruan.
I saw the girl standing in the rain with an umbrella, her delicate little face full of astonishment. The few little girls behind her were soaked by the rain, and they were very pitiful.
Wen Zhonghuai didn't know why, when he saw the girl, he was a little displeased.
Xia Wen obviously didn't see Wen Zhonghuai's displeasure, she said to Xiao Jiu: "Who are you, why are you here?" ”
Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows, and his smile faded a little.
He knew that this was Xia Ruan's cousin Xia Wen.
"Who are you? Why are you here? Wen Zhonghuai pushed back unhappily, he saw that the girl asked reasonably, so he was naturally a little unhappy, "Chang'an Hou can also let you say 'hey' casually?" ”
Wen Zhonghuai rarely gets angry like this, and he doesn't know where the nameless fire in his heart comes from.
is obviously a delicate and weak lady in the boudoir, but he is disgusted.
Even Wen Zhonghuai himself felt a little strange, why he hated the person in front of him so much.
After Xia Wen heard this, she couldn't help but take a step back.
Xiao Jiu? Her cousin-in-law?
She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, such a person in Yushu Linfeng was actually her brother-in-law?
The last trace of pride in Xia Wen's heart was instantly extinguished.
She had heard before that Xiao Jiu was a cowardly, incompetent and unassertive man. Later, after Xiao Jiu returned from Los Angeles, she also felt that Xiao Jiu relied on the Li family to become the Hou Ye. Therefore, even when Xia Ruan got married, she was only envious of Xia Ruan's dowry and Xiao Jiu's status...... She never knew that Xiao Jiu was such a person.
Such dazzling, such noble.
Every step he took slowly just now was like a flower under her feet, and she couldn't take her eyes off. However, this amazes her and makes her a person who is tempted. But it was Xia Ruan's husband.
It's Xia Ruan again, and it's that damn Xia Ruan again.
Xia Wen grabbed her clothes tightly, and then shouted timidly: "Third cousin-in-law." ”
When she called Xiao Jiu 'brother-in-law', she felt very bitter.
If her parents hadn't had that accident, would she have known Xiao Jiu in advance? Or......
The maid ring beside Xia Wen heard from Xia Wen's words who was coming, and hurriedly saluted: "The slave maid has seen the third aunt." ”
"Come in and take shelter from the rain." Xiao Jiu smiled politely and said to Yahuan behind Xia Wen, "If it's raining, you'll get cold." ”
Xiao Jiu said lightly, but Xia Wen was extremely uncalm.
Because of Xiao Jiu's words. Apparently ignoring her presence.
Xia Wen's eyes widened. looked at the girl ring beside her with a smile, and walked towards the corridor, as if relieved, she kept saying thank you to Xiao Jiu.
She held the umbrella alone. Trembling with anger.
It's just that Xia Wen told herself. She can't lose her temper here. Can't leave a bad impression in Xiao Jiu's heart.
"Brother Jiu, let's go." Seeing the love in Xia Wen's eyes that was too obvious, Wen Zhonghuai felt creepy. "Wait a minute, sister-in-law is in a hurry."
Xiao Jiu nodded, turned around and wanted to walk towards Begonia Garden.
Seeing that Xiao Jiu was leaving, Xia Wen hurriedly ran over and grabbed Xiao Jiu's clothes: "Wait." ”
Her movements were too fast, and Xiao Jiu's reaction was also very fast. As soon as she grabbed Xiao Jiu's clothes, she was dodged by Xiao Jiu, and the smile on Xiao Jiu's face disappeared in an instant: "What's the matter?" ”
Wen Zhonghuai also showed a look of surprise, this was the first time he had seen Xiao Jiu's face without a trace of a smile.
He has known Xiao Jiu for so many years, no matter when, even if Xiao Jiu is angry again, he will always have a faint smile on his face.
But now, instead of smiling, there is a little more boredom.
This woman is also a powerful character, so that Xiao Jiu can't even bother to do superficial work.
Xia Wen naturally saw the disgust in Xiao Jiu's eyes, she paused, and then pulled her hair. She came out in a hurry today, and she didn't dress up properly. I was in too much of a hurry just now, so I might be a little embarrassed now.
Xia Wen was a little depressed, why didn't she dress up well before going out.
"Third cousin-in-law, are you going to find the third cousin?" Xia Wen thought about it for a long time before she came up with a topic, "I'll go with you, I haven't seen my third cousin for a long time, I miss her very much." ”
She pretended to be a sister, hoping to talk to Xiao Jiu more.
After all, this person is good-looking, and he is the Hou Ye.
What's more, Xiao Jiu is Xia Ruan's husband.
Xia Wen's heart had one more thought.
At this time, she didn't know why she had such an idea, but she had to admit that such an idea was very interesting to her.
As long as Xiao Jiu remembers her, her plan will be carried out in the future.
After all, she was a few years younger than Xia Ruan.
Xia Ruan always has a time when he is old and decrepit.
Xiao Jiu's voice carried some distance: "Aren't you cold?" ”
Xia Wen was stunned, she didn't expect Xiao Jiu to ask herself like this, and quickly shook her head: "It's not cold." ”
"If it's not cold." Xiao Jiu stretched out his white and slender hand, pointed to the courtyard and said, "Then let's go to the rain again, I see that you like the rain very much." ”
As soon as Xiao Jiu's words came out, Xia Wen's face instantly turned red.
I don't know if it's shy, or angry.
Even if she was holding an umbrella, there was still some rain on her body, Xiao Jiu's words were obviously satirizing what she did.
Xia Wen bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.
In the blink of an eye, tears rolled out.
"The third cousin-in-law is the same as the third cousin, because I am an ominous person, so do you hate me?" Xia Wen said word by word miserable, looking at Xiao Jiu's eyes a little pitiful, "I...... I don't want that either. ”
Xia Wen cried pear blossoms with rain, and the whole person looked aggrieved and pitiful.
But such a scene, in Xiao Jiu's eyes, was like a joke.
He was not a good person in the first place, let alone a soft-hearted person.
He didn't have time here to listen to Xia Wen talk about her pathetic past. (To be continued......)
