However, she was unwilling, yes, she was unwilling. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, when she decided to go down the mountain, she didn't mean that it was completely to help her grandfather win over Dou Yunxiao, but she was very yearning for the outside world, and she wanted to see what life outside would be like.
They have always lived in such a village far away from the world, and in her eyes, what they see is nothing but mountains and mountains, which is monotonous and boring. Since she was a child, she longed for a life outside, but they were not allowed to go out, except for the soon-to-be leaders and the elders, who could go out at will. Every time she saw someone go out, she would always look forward to the person's return, and then ask him about the outside world.
Each time she received very little information, except for the beautiful houses, the crowds, the lively streets, and all kinds of delicacies, she did not find any news from anyone. But despite this, the information she got from them also made her full of illusions about the outside world, and she longed for that kind of life.
Later, when she got that her grandfather wanted the women in the village to use the beauty trick in order to win over Dou Yunxiao, she was moved for a moment. As long as she says that she wants to get close to Dou Yunxiao, then she will be able to leave the village and see the outside world completely.
However, she felt that seducing people and doing such things would damage her self-esteem, so she would refuse her grandfather's opinion at first. But after she rejected her grandfather, she was actually very conflicted in her heart. She didn't want to let go of her dignity to please a stranger she hadn't even met, and she was extremely yearning for the outside life, so it can be said that she spent that time completely in torment.
Later, wave after wave of women who were sent to seduce Dou Yunxiao came back, and although they all failed, they were all like the one who mentioned Dou Yunxiao in his mouth as if he had lost his soul. Slowly, she also began to be curious about Dou Yunxiao, and then little by little from their mouths there was some news about the outside world and about Dou Yunxiao.
Gradually, she found that she had a new curiosity, that is, the man named Dou Yunxiao. So, in the end, after a lot of struggle, she decided to agree to her grandfather's request.
Because in my grandfather's opinion, the people in the whole village belonged to her who were the most educated and beautiful. So when everyone fails to win over Dou Yunxiao, then she may be the last and only bargaining chip. Moreover, Dou Yunxiao will succeed as the leader of Lijia Village in the future, and he will be the one who can really take power in the village in the future. If she can really make Dou Yunxiao fall in love with her, it will only be beneficial to her, but also to their entire family.
She was not stupid, and naturally knew the reason why her grandfather wanted her to come forward so much, so she pretended to be aggrieved and agreed. And when she first saw Dou Yunxiao, who made all the girls in the village miss the tea and rice, she was shocked in an instant.
It was the first time she had seen such a heart-warming man since she had grown up, and his smile or any small gesture seemed to be a scenery of its own, making your eyes reluctant to leave him.
Therefore, after that, she consciously or unconsciously thought of various ways to get close to him for a hundred years, and then accompanied him to various places, and really saw life outside.
The longer she stayed outside, the more she no longer wanted to go back to the place that although it was surrounded by mountains and rivers, it was backward in her eyes and could not be left behind. So when she treated Dou Yunxiao, she was always like leaving, and she didn't really bother with anything. In order for her to be able to stay by Dou Yunxiao's side again, and to spend more time in the outside world, so that she can feel and contact the outside world more.
It's just that her grandfather seemed to see through her thoughts at that time, so he gave her the order to come down and die. If she can't really make Dou Yunxiao fall in love with her, then she has to go back to Lijia Village immediately. On the contrary, if Dou Yunxiao really fell in love with her, then her grandfather agreed that she could live outside with Dou Yunxiao in the future.
This condition was full of temptation for her, so in the end, she began to approach Dou Yunxiao in earnest. It's just that the final result was something she didn't expect, Dou Yunxiao not only didn't fall in love with her, but was polite to her and to other women, but he didn't let you get closer to him for half a step.
Later, she didn't succeed in making Dou Yunxiao fall in love with her within the time agreed with her grandfather, so in the end she was forced to return to Lijia Village.
However, at this time, it is completely like a child who has never eaten sweet dates, once she tastes how sweet the dates are, after that, the real torment begins. And when she finally saw the world she dreamed of, and then let her go to those lives that had been very boring to her before, she was really angry and wanted to kill.
Then she met a strange man, who had been covered all the time, and she had never seen him in real terms from beginning to end. Just looking at the momentum on his body, she could faintly feel a trace of familiarity, a bit like the temperament of Dou Yunxiao and his party. It's just that, listening to his voice and eyes, she clearly knows that she has not seen that person, and that person is not Dou Yunxiao and any of them.
At that time, she was really curious about the identity of that person, so she also tried to sneak attack. It's just that the man's kung fu is much higher than her, especially when he grabbed her neck, she really felt that death was coming. So after that, I became more and more afraid of that man.
She didn't know why the man asked her to find the jade pendant, which symbolized the power of the chief, but the man told her personally that as long as she could find the jade pendant, he would help her fulfill her wish, let her leave the village completely, and live freely in the outside world, and no one would arrest or blame her.
Although the man was dressed in black and masked at that time, she didn't even see his appearance at all, but inexplicably she just believed his words and believed in the promises he made. Although even she wondered why she trusted a stranger so much, she just believed it. (To be continued.) )
