Interspersed with reminiscences, the weak Xia Shuanghan gradually fell asleep, and when he woke up again, it was already the hour when the fish belly was slightly white in the east. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After washing, ignoring Ruixiang's dissuasion, Xia Shuanghan put on a cloak, walked out of the gate of Qingfeng Courtyard in the cold and dry breeze, and went to Xiaoxiang Garden, which she loved the most in her previous life.

Xiaoxiang Garden is a garden full of bamboos, and the ladies of the Guogong Mansion don't like to come, but the grandpa Guo and Lu Shaoyun after marriage have to practice swords here every day. In his previous life, Xia Shuanghan was deceived by Mrs. Shizi (that is, his mother-in-law) to drink the decoction for three years, so he contracted the problem of cold hands and feet all year round. In order to help Xia Shuanghan invigorate his blood, Lu Shaoyun once taught her a set of health boxing with soothing movements, so Xiaoxiang Garden has also become a place that Xia Shuanghan visits every day.

In the memory, Xia Shuanghan took off his cloak, raised his hand and stretched his wrist, and practiced thousands of times of boxing in the clouds and flowing water, with a sense of calm and leisure, after practicing again, Xia Shuanghan only felt that the qi and blood were harmonized, and the whole body was comfortable. Although he sweated slightly due to his weakness, which caused the wound on his back to sting, Xia Shuanghan knew that moderate activity could make the wound heal faster.

"I didn't expect that Miss Xia would also know this boxing technique."

Avoiding the area where Lu Guogong practiced swords, Xia Shuanghan, who had finished practicing boxing on the open ground of the pebble-paved bamboo forest, was picking up her cloak from the stone table on the side of the road and putting it back on her body, but before she could buckle it, she heard the voice of a young man behind her.

"Why is Lu Gongzi here?" Hearing this, Xia Shuanghan, who turned around, looked at Lu Shaoyun a few feet away suspiciously, and asked: "Unmarried men over the age of eight in the Guogong Mansion live in the outer courtyard, I don't know why Lu Gongzi appeared in the Xiaoxiang Garden in this inner courtyard at this time?" ”

"Ting Xuan wanted to come here today to ask his grandfather for advice, but when he came from the outer courtyard, he saw Miss Xia from a distance through the verandah. Miss Xia's injuries had not healed and she was alone, so Ting Xuan was relieved to come over and take a look. Lu Shaoyun said and gave a salute to Xia Shuanghan, and said frankly: "If you disturb Miss Xia, it will be Tingxuan who is abrupt." ”

"Where did it come from, the Guogong Mansion is originally Lu Gongzi's home, isn't it?" Xia Shuanghan buckled the clasp of the cloak, and also gave a salute to Lu Shaoyun, and said sincerely: "Shuanghan is here to thank Lu Gongzi for saving his life on the night of the Lantern Festival. ”

"Miss Xia risked her life to brave the fire to rescue the son and miss of the Liu family, this is the real life-saving grace, how can Tingxuan be able to do it, how can he be worthy of Miss Xia's life-saving benefactor." Lu Shaoyun, who pays attention to etiquette, humbly returned the salute, but for no reason Xia Shuanghan felt tired, Siren has passed away, and the man in front of him does not have the common memories of his previous life, and he is no longer the husband she loves, facing Lu Shaoyun who is now like a stranger, Xia Shuanghan does not want to see others hurt themselves.

"Since that's the case, then the frost and cold won't bother Lu Gongzi to ask Grandpa Guo for advice." Xia Shuanghan finally saluted Lu Shaoyun, turned around and walked towards the depths of Xiaoxiang Garden.

"Miss Xia," Lu Shaoyun, who was hanging in place, stepped to catch up with Xia Shuanghan, and when he walked side by side with her, he couldn't help but say the question in his heart, he wanted to understand that Xia Shuanghan was really in love with Liu Zirun, so he was willing to live and die with him, or Xia Shuanghan was a woman who was righteous and brave, so he couldn't bear to see his friends die in the fire. Ting Xuan took the liberty of asking, where did Miss Xia get the courage to rush into the burning teahouse?

"No, that's not what you're asking." The person next to Lu Shaoyun, who has been in the same bed for three years, the question that Lu Shaoyun really wants to ask in his heart, Xia Shuanghan is very clear, "What you want to ask is, am I in love with Liu Zirun, and am I ready to live and die with him and never give up, right?" ”

"Miss Xia is smart." Lu Shaoyun, who was seen through what he was thinking, was slightly embarrassed, but he didn't plan to back down. "I know that Ling Tang is a Rong from outside the Guan, and Miss Xia also has half of the Rong blood in her body. When I was at the border, I heard that the Rong people did not pay attention to the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers, so I thought......"

"Do I think I have a private agreement with Liu Zirun for life?" In the cold breeze, Xia Shuang couldn't help but laugh, and the white mist filled with the bamboo forest clouded her face, making Lu Shaoyun unable to distinguish her emotions. "Lu Gongzi, it's true that my mother was born in the Rong clan, but Zirun is an authentic Han Chinese!"

"Zirun's father is a seven-grade official with an upright character, and his lifelong pursuit is to make the Liu family glorious and famous in history; Zirun's mother's identity is not obvious, and her mother's brother was paralyzed in bed due to injuries a few years ago, so she hopes that if Zirun has a high school day, she can help her uncle's family when she is prosperous in the future. Zirun is the only heir of the Liu family, and the future of the Liu family and the expectations of his parents are all pinned on him, do you think he will make a private agreement with me for life in such a situation? ”

"There is a marriage contract between the two families of Lu Xia, Zirun has always known about this matter, if Zirun makes a private agreement with me for life before I dissolve the marriage contract, not to mention the disagreement, it is equivalent to going against the Dingguo Mansion, which angers the Guogong Mansion, he is a small person, and his career has not yet been launched, which is equivalent to being ruined, exchanging the future of the whole family for his own love, Zirun is not such an irresponsible person."

"Moreover, even if I don't have a marriage contract, Zirun can't be with me. My father's official position is not high, so it is impossible for him to promote Zirun in his career and help Zirun fulfill his father's wishes; Our Xia family has a small business, and it is impossible to financially support Zirun's uncle, and it is impossible for Zirun to achieve her mother's wish. What the Liu family needs is not a daughter-in-law like me Xia Shuanghan, after all, the Liu family does have a better choice than me. So, in fact, just think about it, and you will realize how unwanted your worries are. ”

"But Miss Xia, you were seriously injured and hung by a thread to save Liu Zirun and his sister, and the injuries on your face were even-" Lu Shaoyun, who was talking about this, suddenly stopped talking, he was impulsive, he shouldn't have mentioned her damaged appearance in front of Xia Shuanghan.

"Will the wounds on the face even leave scars that will never be cleaned?" Xia Shuanghan raised his hand and touched the gauze covering the corner of his left forehead to the cheekbone of his left face, and there was no grief and despair on his face as Lu Shaoyun imagined, but a free and casual smile, "Maybe in Lu Gongzi's opinion, I was originally in the posture of Pu Liu, but now with this scar on my face, it can be regarded as disfigured." How pitiful and lamentable, when a woman is disfigured in order to save a man and his family, but the man refuses to marry the woman! Lu Gongzi, you think so, right? ”

Lu Shaoyun was silent and didn't answer, he didn't know what to say at all.

"Perhaps this is true for many girls, how desperate it is to disfigure their sweetheart, but his sweetheart refuses to marry her! It's a pity that I won't be such a girl who washes her face with tears and collapses. "Liu Zirun is not my sweetheart, if he feels deeply guilty because of this incident and wants to marry me, then I really don't know what to do.

"Miss Xia, don't you resent it?" Lu Shaoyun was puzzled.

"What? And what do you hate? Zirun didn't ask me to save him, everything was of my own volition, didn't it? Who stipulates that there will be an equal reward for what you give? "If this is the case, how can you and I come to the point of reconciliation and separation in our previous lives? Xia Shuanghan still smiled lightly, and slowly walked forward in the hazy sunlight that pierced through the fog. "By the way, Lu Gongzi, how is the Qingfeng Sword? After I was wounded that day, it seems that I left the sword in the fire, have you found it? Can it still be used? Lu Gongzi, Lu Gongzi? ”

Xia Shuanghan's call brought Lu Shaoyun, who was deep in thought, back to reality, and he replied: "The sword is still there, it hasn't been lost, and it can still be used." ”

"Yes, if there is any damage, I hope that Lu Gongzi will not be polite, and I will not pay for the repair." Xia Shuanghan, who stepped out of the bamboo forest while speaking, returned to the entrance of Xiaoxiang Garden, and estimated the time, she thought that it was time for her to go back to Qingfeng Courtyard. "Young Brother Lu, younger brother Chaoyang should have finished washing up now, go to Qingfeng Courtyard to find me, you are busy, Shuang Han is one step ahead."

Seeing the figure of Xia Shuanghan leaving, Lu Shaoyun had a thought lingering in his heart: no complaints, no regrets, no return for Liu Zirun, Xia Shuanghan, you are such a love-oriented, brave and strong woman, why do you have to fall in love with a man who is impossible to stay with? Don't you want to be happy?
