Episode 5 Marriage Destiny in Progress (5)

"Miss, can we not go? I heard that the people in that place in the northwest are fierce, and you have said before that there are poor mountains and bad waters! Can we go to Xiao Tanhua's hometown, it's Jiangnan, and you went to Xiao Tanhua's hometown......"

When the woman who was packing her luggage heard the little girl's words, she turned her head, sneered on her face, and said word by word: "If you don't want to go with me, ask you to take twenty taels of silver at home, and I will return the deed of sale to you, where do you like to go!" ”

A trace of fear flashed in the maid's eyes, and she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "Miss, stop being angry! The slave maid didn't mean that, it's not that she didn't want to go to the west with the miss, it's just that the slave maid felt sorry for the miss! Over the years, I have taken good care of Ruyi Lou with Miss, how much effort has been spent, the slave maid has seen it in her eyes, and suddenly wants to sell Ruyi Lou to others, not to mention Miss, even the slave maid is also extremely reluctant in her heart, and I am afraid that Miss will go to that remote place to suffer and suffer, where has Miss ...... these years"

"That's it! What's the use of complaining about something that has already been decided? ”

Dark Xiang took a deep breath, and her face softened a little, what this girl said was the truth, she naturally knew what kind of place the northwest was.

In the past, in ****, they had to learn geography when they studied, this place in the northwest was in her previous life, in such an era of rapid economic development and developed transportation, some places in the northwest still carried the label of poverty and backwardness, not to mention this place that has gone back thousands of years, she can't imagine that backwardness......

The little girl's name is Coke, and the time with Dark Fragrance is not short, this time Dark Fragrance was put in a prison cell, it can be said that she went with Dark Fragrance, so it can be regarded as a shared hardship, and Dark Fragrance is not bad for her on weekdays, at this time, when she saw Dark Fragrance packing up her things, she didn't seem to be in a good mood, so she searched her intestines and said: "Actually, the slave maid thinks that this matter is actually quite good,"

Dark Xiang glanced at her and then continued to pack up her things, there is a saying that Coke is right, the people in the northwest are indeed strong, because the people there deal with the dog Rong all the year round, the people in the whole place can immediately throw away their farm tools and go into battle, it is simply a soldier! If she really wants to go somewhere, Dark Fragrance doesn't want to fight an uncertain battle!

"Miss thinks! Xiao Tanhua is about to be sent to Xiliang Mansion as a scribe, although the place in Xiliang Mansion is not as prosperous as other places, but Mrs. Xiao can't follow the past, right? Miss has a deep affection for Xiao Tanhua, but Mrs. Xiao doesn't agree with you and Xiao Tanhua, when you arrive in Xiliang Mansion, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, she always can't care about you and Xiao Tanhua, right? When the time comes, they will be able to ...... with Xiao Tanhua, and in time, Xiao Tanhua will not be able to "

Dark incense heard this place but couldn't listen to it anymore! She suddenly threw a pink shell pearl aventurine jade treasure hairpin king dresser in her hand!

"Enough!"

The Duobao hairpin was originally when she was a maid for Xiao Mubai, and the gift that Xiao Mubai gave her has always been cherished by her, but now she has fallen like this, and Cola quickly sorted out the four seasons clothes in her hands honestly, and she didn't dare to say more.

Dark Xiang listened to Coke's words but couldn't help but feel angry, if the reason was Mrs. Xiao, she still had the confidence to get Mrs. Xiao, the problem was not Mrs. Xiao, but Xiao Mubai himself, he Xiao thought that the woman who was very different from his identity was not a day or two, especially in the past few years, although he didn't say a word, but Dark Xiang could feel that Xiao Mubai had never forgotten Princess Yuanjia in his heart.

Dark Xiang regrets it more than once now, she knew that she would meet Princess Yuanjia when she came to the capital, then she would leave Xiao Mubai in Jiangnan even if she was splashing and rolling, looking at this man's steady and silent appearance now, she was more uncomfortable than anyone else! Because many times the silence and stability often include those unknown sadness, the longer the time passes, the more Dark Xiang understands her feelings for Xiao Mubai, it is not just a woman's feelings for a man, brother and sister love, friendship with friends, ********, this kind of reluctance to let go has been integrated into the bones, and it is difficult to let go like that.

Having no intention of packing up these things anymore, Dark Xiang hurriedly took another maid out and walked towards Xiao's house.

"You go to the concierge to inquire, Xiao Tanhua is at home today, if not, when will she come back?"

Dark Xiang also knew that Mrs. Xiao would never appear in front of her if she didn't want to see her, so every time there was something, she asked the maid to talk to the porter, which was also convenient.

Xiao Mubai is actually at home, but he is very leisurely than Dark Xiang!

While sitting there drinking tea and reading a book, when Mrs. Xiao came, she saw her son lying comfortably on the rocking chair, and when she saw that she was coming, she quickly stood up: "Why is my mother here?" ”

When Mrs. Xiao thought of her such a wonderful son, who was now about to go to that desolate and barbaric place, her heart felt a burst of sourness, in addition to sourness and guilt.

Her lord also said that because of her sister's family, Her Majesty is now very disgusted with the people of the Xiao family in Jiangnan, and even the lord of the Xiao family is disliked and complained about by the clan and his brothers, this is simply because Mrs. Xiao took in her sister's children, and then her sister's family took risks in order to return to the capital.

Mrs. Xiao reluctantly smiled: "You will go to Xiliang Mansion to serve in a few days, where it is said that the food and clothing are very different from the capital, my mother is afraid that you will not be used to it in the past, so I specially trained two people to let them take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and my mother can rest assured." ”

Xiao Mubai originally thought that he would not be able to come back every three years and five years when he went to Xiliang, and he would not be able to fulfill his filial piety by his mother's side at that time, and he still felt a little guilty in his heart, but at this time, looking at the two shy and timid little maids behind his mother, the qi in his stomach rushed to the top of his head!

Holding back the fire screen and retreating, Xiao Mubai rarely said to his mother with a cold face: "What does my mother mean by giving me two girls?" Do you know why I was sent to Xiliang Mansion by His Majesty? ”

"That's naturally because I'm tired of your aunt's family!"

Seeing that his mother still knew this, Xiao Mubai finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Because of my aunt, this is one of the points, and now that Xiliang Mansion has just been pacified, it is difficult for Dog Rong to cheer up for ten years, and when Xiliang Mansion is in good shape, it is time for Xiliang Mansion to recuperate, so when everything is in ruins, His Majesty naturally selects people of insight to send to Xiliang Mansion, and my mother walks around the back house on weekdays, doesn't she find that in addition to her son, there are several children of the family in Beijing who are also going to go away?" Their orders are also in the direction of Xiliangfu. Although the son has now gone to a remote place like Xiliang Mansion, he will definitely be of great use when he comes back in the future. ”

Mrs. Xiao still listened to what Xiao Mubai said, but she didn't understand what it had to do with the two girls?

"Mother think about it, Your Majesty is to let us officials go to the local area to experience the hardships of people's livelihood, but I took two maids who are like flowers and jade, is it to do practical things or to enjoy the mountains and rivers all the way? Let Majesty know what you think? Do you want your son's future? ”

This is very straightforward and reasonable, Mrs. Xiao is even more guilty, she always causes trouble for her son, Xiao Mubai doesn't want his mother to have any more moths, and thinks of an idea: "There is a shortage of medicinal materials in the northwest, if my mother is not busy, I will help my son prepare more good medicinal materials and cold skins." ”

Mrs. Xiao is worried about how to make up for her son because she feels guilty about Xiao Mubai these days, so she even gets along with such a trick as sending a maid, but Xiao Mubai personally asked her to do something, where does Mrs. Xiao have no reason not to agree, and even feels that she finally has a place to be a mother, and she is extremely happy in her heart, and hurriedly brought back the two maids she brought.

Xiao Mubai saw his mother like this, he felt very bad in his heart, blame her, after all, she is her mother, and she has always been single-minded and heart-to-heart for herself, although sometimes the method is a little wrong, but it is always her mother, Xiao Mubai always has a deep sense of powerlessness every time he meets his mother doing this kind of thing, he can't care if he doesn't care about it, he cares, his mother always does things that make him embarrassed, but it is his mother who can't teach out loud, every time he uses this to divert his attention**......

"Young master, Miss Dark Fragrance asks to see you."

Xiao Mubai's brows were deeper than the one he had just wrinkled when he heard this: "Please ask her to wait for me in Ruyi Building." ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Mubai no longer has the leisure and ease he had just now, a dark fragrance and a mother, these two women are the calamities of his life, and he can't let go of them and can't face them well...... But Lan Qiduo's cold face appeared in his heart, as well as the ruthless words "What do you have to do with me", Xiao Mubai's heart suddenly ached, this pain made him bend down for a while as if someone had poked a knife in his heart and stirred it indiscriminately, Xiao Mubai's face was pale and laughed miserably, the silence of the courtyard, and the cherry tree he specially planted in his previous life, all seemed to be a joke, ridiculing and sarcastic that he didn't know to cherish the person in front of him, and he regretted it when he lost it.

"What are you looking for from me?"

Xiao Mubai didn't have much expression on his face, but his eyes were red.

She used to watch TV series and novels and always didn't understand why the characters in it were always easy to shed tears in front of her sweetheart, shouldn't she laugh happily when she saw her sweetheart? Why do you shed tears? But at this time, she experienced it herself, but her heart was like a knife.

"I know you blame me for not telling you about Lantern Lane, so Her Royal Highness the princess was frightened, but at that time, I didn't know that it would be so strict! There are not one or two people in the capital who hate Princess Yuanjia, how do I know that they just let them succeed? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, this matter is in the past!"

Xiao Mubai suddenly said this sternly to Dark Xiang, Dark Fragrance didn't know why her tears flowed even more fiercely, she only knew that Xiao Mubai actually spoke to her in such a tone.

He held his forehead with a headache: "If you're okay, I'll go back, I'll go to the northwest in a few days, and I don't know how long it will take to return to Beijing, and I won't be able to take care of you in the future." It's not easy for one of your daughters to show up outside, and after I leave, you will have less to worry about the business of Ruyi Building, just stay in the backyard with peace of mind, and let the people in charge handle the affairs of Qiē. ”

Xiao Mubai's voice was warm, and he carefully explained things to Dark Xiang one by one, Dark Xiang only felt that a heart seemed to be attracted to him, looking at his closed mouth, the whole person was a little stupid, such a man, such a delicate and gentle man, how to let her go, every time she thought that someone would be as cared for and loved by Xiao Mubai as she was in the future, Dark Xiang's heart was crazy with jealousy!

“…… This is five hundred taels of silver tickets, you accept it, I don't have too much money, presumably plus your savings over the years are also a lot, if you have the young talent in your eyes, you will get married in the future, this family must be enough for you to live a prosperous life in your in-law's house! ”

Dark Xiang was originally full of thoughts and dreams, thinking that in the future, she would follow Xiao Mubai alone to go to that desolate and remote place to take up her post, and then impress Xiao Mubai and then the two of them lived in love, who would have expected that Xiao Mubai's words would wake her up like a slap in the face!

The words "young talent" and "mother-in-law" burned dark incense's eyes red, she rushed to Xiao Mubai like crazy and threw herself into Xiao Mubai's arms, Xiao Mubai was shocked by her sudden movements, originally he was standing in front of the table and talking, and was putting down the silver ticket in his hand, when he saw Dark Xiang rushing over and hugging his waist desperately! Xiao Mubai was shocked and hurriedly pushed people away! But the hand wrapped around his waist was as firm as if he was glued on, Xiao Mubai was about to reprimand Dark Xiang, and when he heard what she said, his whole body stiffened! A pair of hands were stunned in mid-air, and it wasn't to tear the dark incense away when he put it down!

"Xiao Mubai! Xiao Mubai! Keep your eyes open and see! Can't you see what I have in mind for you? Can't you see what I've been boiling myself into an old girl all these years? That's all because I like you! I want to be with you! ”

The thoughts of the years were spoken at this moment, but the dark fragrance was sad as if she had lost all her strength!

"I don't want any young talents, and I don't want my mother-in-law, I just want to be with you, I also think that you will marry me in a sedan chair in a beautiful way, I will work hard to earn money, help you filial piety to your mother, and have children with you......"

Dark incense's tears fell one after another like beads with broken threads, but Xiao Mubai's heart was as astringent and painful as if it had been splashed with oil, and he even felt that what the princess said in his previous life was right, Dark Fragrance had always had a love for him as a man and a woman, but he thought it was the friendship of brother and sister, he had been talking about peach skin before, and when Dark Fragrance didn't fully say it, he still hoped that he had misunderstood, so that his heart would feel better, and now Dark Fragrance is really as the princess said, but it's too late, In the end, he not only mistook Dark Incense, but also mistook the princess!

"I ...... I ......"

Thinking that he and the princess have no intersection in this life, but he still has to live up to the friendship of the dark fragrance, Xiao Mubai is in unbearable pain, but he still has a trace of extravagant hope in his heart, the princess has not yet married, does he still have a chance?
