Chapter 252: Comb your hair
At three o'clock, the room in the west courtyard of the Hou Mansion was still lit with a dim candle flame, faintly shining through the paper on the window, reflecting an orange and yellow on the ground. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiaoxiao had already laid down at this time on weekdays, but tonight, there were two voices from inside.
“…… It's true? ”
"Nature is true! At that time, I thought that the rest of my life would be like this, sitting in a sedan chair, tears were going to dry...... But Lin Luo and Lin Xun suddenly appeared, and I was dazzled, and I even regarded them as thieves......"
The laughter of the two was as crisp as a bell.
"Then did you regret it later?"
"Regrets? Though...... Yes, a lot of unsatisfactory things did happen later, but ...... I thought many times that if I went back in time, I would have made the same choice and would go with them. ”
"Really?"
"Really."
"Sister Tang, Xiaoxiao really admires you."
“…… Actually, I shouldn't have told you that. ”
"What should and shouldn't be, the things in your mouth are all things that Xiaoxiao has never experienced, and it sounds fresh."
"That's because Xiaoxiao has lived in the boudoir since she was a child, unlike me...... Running around all day. Okay, do you like it or not? ”
In a brass mirror on the table, Zhao Xiaoxiao's delicate and fair cheeks were illuminated, and under the candle flame, her face was covered with a layer of haze, which seemed a little illusory and blurry, and her hair full of green silk was combed with an elegant and beautiful bride's head.
This is what Tang Guxi combed for her on the day of her wedding. Today, she carefully recalled the original Jinxun technique, and combed it out for Xiaoxiao as it was.
Think about it, if it weren't for that day, she deliberately made her temperament, Sister Jinxun would not have patiently combed it so many times, and naturally she would not have memorized it by heart. After so long, I wonder how Sister Jinxun is doing? Were you implicated in that crime?
Thinking about it, I was stunned.
"I like it, Sister Tang is so skillful." Zhao Xiaoxiao looked at herself in the mirror, the corners of her lips curled slightly, "The day after tomorrow, I will ask Caiyun to comb my hair." ”
Tang Guxi came back to his senses from his thoughts, and when he heard Zhao Xiaoxiao's words, his eyes swept into the mirror, staring at the delicate face in the bronze mirror, and his fingers gently pinched the jade hairpin and step shake in her hair, and slightly shifted the position to appear more symmetrical. The two of them were silent, only to hear the sound of flying insects crackling and burning into the candle flame.
"Sister Tang." After a long time, Zhao Xiaoxiao shouted softly.
"Huh?"
"What do you think...... Brother Su Chen, what kind of person is he? ”
Tang Guxi's hand on her hairpin paused, her expression stiffened, and her heart was empty, like a bird flying in the water, and went to the sky without leaving a trace.
When drinking tea today, she and Su Chen just said a few more words, could it be that they behaved too intimately? Still is...... Xiaoxiao saw that scene in the afternoon?
Her face turned red, and she hurriedly lowered her head, fiddling with her hair on Xiaoxiao's head with both hands, pretending to be careless, and said, "Su Chen? He...... He's a good guy. ”
Xiaoxiao stared at the figure behind her in the mirror, her gaze resting on her dim cheeks, her eyes were soft as water, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
"That's all?"
“…… Well. ”
Looking at her, Xiaoxiao softened somewhere in her heart, and secretly thought that this Sister Tang really couldn't deceive people, and betrayed her with the first word she spoke, but she still had to pretend to be calm.
This also reassured her, and at the same time, she revealed unspeakable loss.
Brother Su Chen is the same, he can't deceive people, he can't lie, he can't pretend......
"Sister Tang, actually...... You don't have to hide it. Xiaoxiao knows that you are also a good person...... Brother Su Chen can have you in this life, Xiaoxiao is happy for him. ”
Hearing this, Tang Guxi stopped with both hands again, since Xiaoxiao knew, there was no need to hide. But when she said this now, she couldn't help but worry her. Even if it's a joke, it's full of sadness, presumably by others and themselves.
"Xiaoxiao, you are about to get married now, don't look at others and hurt yourself. Maybe in Murong Gongzi's heart, being able to get a dash in this life is the blessing of a hundred years of cultivation. Listening to what your brother said today, presumably that Murong Gongzi is also a person with deep affection, and he has been friends with your brother since he was a child, and you will never have a hard time when you marry in the past. Isn't it also a great blessing for a woman to be able to get a true person in her life? ”
Tang Guxi looked at the person in the mirror and said seriously.
"But this sincere person is not Xiaoxiao's intended person......"
Xiaoxiao said lonely, and then sighed softly, and the expression on her face finally changed to a sad look. At this point, the strong smile of the day gradually collapsed, and the desolation in his heart was completely revealed in front of Tang Guxi.
Tang Guxi was stunned for a moment, faintly distressed, but Xiaoxiao's words ...... And what does that mean?
"Xiaoxiao, you ......" she walked around from behind her, lowered her body and looked up at Xiaoxiao, "You...... Who is he? ”
If Xiaoxiao has someone in her heart, then why didn't she tell the eldest princess of Ziyang earlier? The eldest princess is not an unreasonable person, if she knew that her daughter had someone else in her heart, she would not force her to marry the Murong family, right? According to the temperament of the eldest princess, what is a mere "baby parent"?
After hanging her head for a moment, Xiaoxiao turned her head, tears rolled in her eyes, and her two beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, as if she had a thousand words in her chest but couldn't say them. She stared at Tang Guxi and endured it for a long time, but in the end she couldn't open her lips, so she simply raised her head.
"It's not too early, sister...... Distribute it for me. She exhaled lightly, her expression relieved.
Seeing this appearance, Tang Guxi's heart was sour, thinking that Xiaoxiao lived in the boudoir, who else could be the man he saw on weekdays? Except for Zhao Huayong and Murong Han, it is her royal brothers, is it difficult to ...... Is it a certain prince?
With a solemn face, she stood up from the ground, turned behind her to Xiaoxiao, and looked at her in the mirror as she thought.
I saw Xiaoxiao's expression as before, her eyes trembling slightly, mixed with the flickering candle flame, making her bright eyes like shining stars.
……
Tang Guxi was a little stunned, the movements in her hands slowed down, and an indescribable panic arose inexplicably, making her face gradually pale, and her heart seemed to crack a groove.
Is it possible......
"Sister Tang, you have to promise me one thing." Suddenly, Xiaoxiao's voice sounded.
Tang Guxi's eyes trembled slightly, and he hurriedly recovered his expression, the corners of his mouth tugged, and he nodded.
"I don't know when we will see each other this time." Zhao Xiaoxiao looked at her softly, as if the scene had not happened, "If in the future, my sister still has a chance to come to Liangyu, remember to come to Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao will wait for Sister Tang no matter where she is." ”
Tang Guxi's heart trembled, and the panic and paralysis of Fang Cai disappeared, she smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, a word is a certainty." ”
"It's a deal."
Two days later, the gongs and drums of the Xiangfu were noisy, the flowers were brocade, the house was full of friends, and the red and green danced...... On this lively and lively day, Zhao Xiaoxiao took a blood-colored sedan chair and married into the prime minister's mansion with a personal girl Caiyun.
In the twilight, the hustle and bustle of the day was hidden, and the hustle and bustle all dispersed, and the streets returned to their original state. Every house is lit up, and the smoke curls in the blue sky. From time to time, a few dog barks came from a certain courtyard, and finally the smoke dispersed...... (To be continued.) )
