CHAPTER XVI
Chapter 16: Elopement
Zhang Lingxi made room for them, and Fang felt that there was nowhere to go. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Qi Yang must have hated her so much that he didn't want to see her for a while. When I went to the old lady, I felt that I couldn't lift my energy. She walked around the courtyard aimlessly, and suddenly wanted to go to the stone forest.
She had always been cautious, and after knowing that she would get lost in the stone forest, she rarely went there again.
I don't know what happened today, but I suddenly couldn't control it and wanted to go there.
Zhang Lingxi laughed self-deprecatingly, probably hoping to meet Liu Yue or Qi Luming, talk about his thoughts, and make himself not so bored.
The two of them practiced in the stone forest.
I usually think it's a long way, but I can walk it in three or two steps. Zhang Lingxi stood for a while, felt bored, and turned back.
There was no one to follow, and she was at ease in her heart.
"Sister Xi!"
Zhang Lingxi heard Liu Xian call her name.
"Brother Xian!" She didn't know that the joy on her face was greater than her surprise.
Liu Xian was in a good mood for no reason, and when he stood beside Zhang Lingxi, he felt comfortable all over his body.
"Brother Xian, why are you alone?"
Zhang Lingxi really hoped that someone would stop her and talk to her for a while, but she really waited for someone to come. She asked, excited.
Liu Xian smiled, and said with a hint of pampering: "When was I not alone?" Why did you walk around by yourself, and you didn't even follow a subordinate, how lonely you are. ā
"Why do you walk around alone, I will walk around alone. If you're not alone, I'm not alone. Zhang Lingxi saw Liu Xian's brows stretched, and he couldn't help but feel a little higher.
"In that case, then can I ask Sister Xi to go with me, it's better than being alone." Liu Xian said without hesitation, and he also coaxed Zhang Lingxi like a child.
Zhang Lingxi hesitated, and almost grabbed Liu Xian's arm like a coquette, she was stunned, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Brother Xian leads the way, and I follow." ā
"What kind of travel is this?" Liu Xian said this, and he had already taken a step under his feet.
Zhang Lingxi pushed his back and pushed him forward, "You are not allowed to turn back, let's just talk like this, okay?" ā
Liu Xian couldn't help but turn around, and was glared back by Zhang Lingxi.
Liu Xian raised his arm helplessly and said, "Okay, I won't look back, don't be angry." ā
"Then let's ask one by one, no matter what we ask, everyone must answer, okay?" Zhang Lingxi and Qi Yang spend a lot of time together, so naturally they can't see Liu Xian.
After coming and going, the two of them are already very familiar. After so many years, there is also some tacit understanding.
Liu Xian did not object, Zhang Lingxi asked, "When will Brother Xian leave?" ā
She originally thought that Liu Xian was just a powerless scholar, but later learned that Liu Xian followed her uncle to the border, with a thousand cavalry, and actually broke the enemy's 20,000 camp defense.
It won't be long before he's going into battle again.
Liu Xian was gentle and didn't look like a murderer, he said: "There is still half a month." ā
When he was free, he didn't go home, but came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask the old lady for advice.
After Zhang Lingxi finished asking the question, Liu Xian asked, "Sister Xi, do you have anyone you like?" ā
Zhang Lingxi was embarrassed by his question: "Did you listen to what Sister Yang said?" It's all her guessing, don't take it seriously. ā
Zhang Lingxi's anxious reaction was exchanged for a wicked smile from Liu Xian, he refused to give up, and continued: "Okay, ask one question and answer one by one, you answer first, and I'll ask later." ā
"I... Absolutely! Zhang Lingxi was originally forced by him to ask the ground red-eared, but then suddenly smiled and said.
Liu Xian's footsteps froze obviously, and he asked, "Who is it?" ā
Zhang Lingxi threw the question he just said to him: "Okay, ask and answer, Brother Xian, don't you remember?" ā
"Yes. Who do you like? Liu Xian asked.
"Brother Xian, I haven't asked a question yet! You are not allowed to ask before me! ā
"You're not asking me if I remember. I've already answered, and I said remember, you can answer my question. ā
Zhang Lingxi snorted and said, "You are cheating!" I like my mother, I like my grandmother, I like a lot of people, as long as I like me! ā
Liu Xian almost blurted out, what if I like you? He endured it again and again, and finally did not say this. He is so ridiculous, if he really said such a thing, it would frighten Sister Xi'er.
He really didn't know when he had this idea. Sister Xi in front of her is very tall, and she already has exquisite curves, and her smile is touching.
She doesn't deliberately attract anyone, but she seems to have such a skill.
She has the beauty of Qi's, and she makes people feel warmer than Qi's coldness.
When did you start to feel this different?
Is it because Sister Xi is like that person?
Liu Xian is a smart person, he can be very sensitive to other people's thoughts, and he can also reflect on his own feelings very seriously.
He was deliberately convinced that he liked the little girl behind him very much.
But the idea is absurd after all, although he did not marry a wife, Zhang Lingxi is a full ten years old behind her.
She is still an innocent and carefree little girl, and it will take three or five years for her family to say goodbye to her. She should find someone who is about the same age as herself.
Liu Xian clenched his hands and gritted his teeth. The heart begins to beat faster, accompanied by tinnitus.
He didn't dare to think about it.
"Brother Xian, are you listening?"
Behind him, Zhang Lingxi asked in a vague voice. So far, I haven't heard her speak so timidly, Liu Xian's heart smacked, what the little girl said just now, he forgot to listen.
"I'm listening." Liu Xian was afraid that she would be angry, so he hurriedly said, "I've been listening." ā
I didn't listen to it, but I said I was listening.
Zhang Lingxi's interest swept away most of it at once. No, he obviously wanted to avoid the question just now, so he pretended not to hear.
Zhang Lingxi was silent for a while, and Liu Xian could only hear the rapid breathing behind him, which made him a little anxious. Sister Xi is really angry.
The two of them continued to walk, but the atmosphere became inexplicably awkward, Liu Xian asked: "Why don't you say it again, I accidentally wandered just now, I really didn't hear it."
Walking silently for a while, Zhang Lingxi said, "Does Brother Xian have anyone you like?" ā
Is there anyone you like......
In the past two days, he heard this for the first time, he didn't remember, Sister Yang asked, and he asked himself many times.
Liu Xian's hesitation made Zhang Lingxi feel defeated again.
"Brother Xian is really, he obviously promised to be good, but he didn't say anything when people asked."
Liu Xian's face was flushed, but fortunately, Zhang Lingxi was behind him and he couldn't see his appearance.
Liu Xian said with difficulty: "Probably yes, I don't know what I think." Sister Xi, what about you, have you thought about it? ā
I even threw the question back to her again!
"I haven't thought about it yet, when I'm about fifteen, I'll think about it." Zhang Lingxi reluctantly showed a smile. When he was fifteen years old, he returned to Zhang's house and was kissed by them.
It is still unknown what kind of person he will show Xiang at that time.
"Then have you figured out what kind of life you want to live in the future?" Liu Xian asked. He never thought about what kind of life he wanted to live, so he never made a decision.
Zhang Lingxi shook his head. She didn't think about it, how would she live the old days? She used to feel that she was quiet and peaceful, and the ordinary life of her husband and children was very good.
But below the calm are stormy waves, rough waves.
She was a little scared.
"I envy Sister Yang, I know what she wants." As Zhang Lingxi spoke, he stumbled and threw himself on Liu Xian's back.
Liu Xian was agile in the end, and immediately turned around to protect her, and the two of them maintained an ambiguous and embarrassing posture for a while before they separated with red faces.
It's a shame.
Liu Xian saw that Zhang Lingxi had nothing to do, pretending that nothing had happened, turned around calmly again, and said as he walked: "I also think that although Sister Yang'er has a worse temper, she is sincere, and you should take care of her more this time." ā
"You're saying she's annoyed with me. I don't think so, it's not her fault. Zhang Lingxi said: "I don't think she misunderstood me, I didn't do it well, let her misunderstand but didn't explain, she must be very sad and treat me as the best sister, but I disappointed her." In fact, I just want her to mature a little bit, and I'll tell her some things later, I just hope she can figure it out for herself. ā
"Sometimes it's better to be immature." Liu Xian said suddenly.
Too mature to do anything, like him.
is immature, and dares to do anything, such as Sister Yang.
This is something he can't envy, and with this side, he must bear the other side he doesn't like.
Zhang Lingxi didn't speak, recalling the meaning of what he said.
Could it be that she is also too mature, so when she encounters things, she always relies on experience to judge whether it is worth doing, and then misses a lot.
It's like a matter between her and Zhao Jiashan, if it were Sister Yang, she would probably have told Zhao Jiashan regardless of it, and then waited for the result. But she hesitated for so many years and missed so many opportunities before she understood what she wanted.
Maybe it was because Zhang Lingxi didn't speak, Liu Xian added. "When you are mature, you think too much, but it is a burden."
Zhang Lingxi thought so. She's suffering from this right now.
Brother Xian is too, otherwise why wouldn't he be married now.
"Actually, I don't think even if she likes it, they don't necessarily get along. So I looked at this matter from the standpoint of disapproval from the beginning, and I didn't consider this matter from Sister Yang'er's point of view, which broke Sister Yang's heart. Zhang Lingxi reflected.
After talking to Liu Xian all the way, she realized that she had a knot to be untied, no wonder she couldn't give up.
"Brother Xian, I'll go back first, let's talk next time." Zhang Lingxi figured out the trick and planned to go back immediately to write a letter to Qi Yang to apologize.
After running out for a while, Zhang Lingxi turned around and said, "Brother Xian, then you should think clearly about who the person you like earlier, otherwise you will regret missing the opportunity." ā
yes, regret it. Liu Xian's mouth kept muttering, and he stayed in place for a long time, standing there motionless.
If you don't say it, you're afraid of regret, and if you say it, you're afraid of regretting it. I really should ask if she was Sister Xi, what would she do.
When Zhang Lingxi went back, his crying face had turned into a smiling face.
Zhang Lingzhe paced back and forth in the courtyard, the door closed.
The subordinates do their own thing, and do not pay special attention to them.
After Zhang Lingxi said a few words to Fusang, who was standing at the door, he told her to bring tea in for a while.
Zhang Lingzhe stood in the courtyard, restless.
"How about her, have you decided?" Zhang Lingxi asked.
He shook his head and said, "I don't know much now, I'm waiting for her to reply." ā
Zhang Lingxi pulled Zhang Lingzhe to sit down.
"That's ......" Zhang Lingxi and Zhang Lingzhe fell into an embarrassing silence with their own hearts.
The door seemed to make a slight noise, and Zhang Lingzhe immediately bounced up like a frightened rabbit, watching the movement in the door.
The door didn't open.
Zhang Lingzhe covered his chest with his left hand, gently closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and then opened his eyes to look at Zhang Lingxi. He took a deep breath and said, "What should I do if she won't come with me?" ā
He wanted to swallow, but his mouth was dry because of nervousness.
Fusang brought a pot of tea, and Zhang Lingzhe directly picked up the teapot and drank it all.
Zhang Lingxi was face down, staring at Zhang Lingzhe inexplicably, infatuated people are like this, what kind of ruthless people look like?
Zhang Lingxi shook Zhao Jiashan's face in front of him, is he an infatuated lover or a ruthless person?
It's not about me. Zhang Lingxi shook his head fiercely, wanting to drive his shadow out of his heart.
He was no longer a complete person, but a shadow that lingered. Zhang Lingxi seemed to restrain the headache and pressed his temple with the index finger of his right hand.
"What's wrong with Sister Xi?" Only then did Zhang Lingzhe notice Zhang Lingxi's strangeness. But before he could finish speaking, he got up and went out in a panic.
The door opened.
Zhao Jiarou came out with red eyes and nodded at Zhang Lingzhe.
It seems that Zhang Lingzhe and Zhao Jiarou have made a decision.
When he came, Zhang Lingzhe went to Zhao's house to propose marriage, but Mrs. Ji looked down on him and drove him out.
Zhang Lingzhe himself also understands that he is just a concubine who lives in the Grange with his aunt, and he has no future at all, how could Mrs. Ji agree.
So he came to the capital this time and proposed to elope with Zhao Jiarou.
With Zhang Lingxi's mother in front of her, she gave a bad example, how dare Zhao Jiarou make a decision easily.
Therefore, Zhang Lingzhe went to the courtyard, gave her time, and asked her to close the door and think about it.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jiarou agreed.
Zhang Lingzhe followed the fourth master to the north and south for a few years, and felt that he could barely make a living by taking Zhao Jiarou out.
Zhao Jiarou is even more ready to live a hard life with him, after all, the hardship in front of him is nothing, as long as Zhang Lingzhe is willing to endure hardships and be motivated, a good life is waiting for him.
Zhang Lingxi didn't want them to take this step, but the two were so resolute that she could only take out part of her private room and entangle them.
Zhang Lingzhe was not polite to her, and took it over and said: "Thank you for your kindness, if Sister Xi has any difficulties in the future, just tell me." ā
Zhao Jiarou couldn't say words of gratitude, but her expression had already said everything.
The two of them didn't say where they would go in the future, but only said that a letter would come when they landed. (To be continued.) )
