Chapter 70: Telling (2)
Xiao Ze was silent for a long time this time.
It wasn't until Ye Zhenzhen found that a plate of cloud cake was eaten by herself, and only the scattered and pitiful two or three pieces were left, and she didn't make a sound. Her face flushed with embarrassment. Good thing no one saw it! Secretly wiped his mouth and sat upright, looking calm. I can't tell if she eats it alone, hehe.
The carriage clattered unhurriedly, and the brilliant lights on the high city gate could already be faintly seen.
I thought to myself, I don't know what happened to Hongyi's girls. I don't know if the family will know and be anxious, and I don't know what happened to my little aunt, and whether she will also be in trouble.
I couldn't help but sigh softly.
Maybe it was too quiet, but this shallow sigh was so abrupt that Xiao Ze suddenly walked out of the surging thoughts and feelings!
He's out of shape!
He turned his head to look. The little girl looked very comfortable with a full meal and a full meal. A pair of apricot eyes became clearer and brighter in the moonlight, blinking curiously at him.
Ahem. He put his fist against his lower lip and coughed softly. His eyes swept over the almost smooth plate, and then he glanced at the little girl who stiffened for a moment and then looked like nothing happened!
A little smile spread from my heart.
The corners of the lips are slightly invisible.
She's still a little girl.
He breathed a long sigh of relief, and then continued, "That woman is going to marry far away. On the way, I met people who coveted dowries from many sides... And I'm one of them,"
Saying this, his eyes were sad, and he glanced at the little girl opposite.
Ye Zhenzhen didn't have much reaction. Lingyun Pavilion is the largest pavilion in the rivers and lakes, raising many masters and dark villages, and the business is naturally everything. It's not surprising that this is a roadblock. In her eyes, this is not a heinous crime, and she doesn't think it will insult his immortal temperament.
Seeing that she was still like that, she bit the tip of her tongue and continued, "Someone sent a thousand gold to Lingyun Pavilion and asked her for a peerless treasure in her dowry... But there were many people at the same time that day, and the scene was chaotic..., and instead of taking the treasure, I took her..."
By the end, his voice was barely audible. Some are sad, and some are remorseful. After two more pauses, he continued, "Because of the unprovoked breach of the contract, Lingyun Pavilion suffered a big blow, her husband's mother's family, and even the imperial court sent people to rescue..., the days of hiding and fighting lasted for a long time, but I was happy, it didn't matter how much I could get along with her day and night—but in the end, everything became a mirror... She killed herself and jumped off a cliff..."
A married noble daughter of the family has been robbed of her property for several months, and she will finally have no face to see her husband again, right?! At that time, there were many forces mixing with each other, and the Ye and Yang families paid a lot, and for a while, the rivers and lakes and the imperial court were in turmoil, and her choice was also for the sake of the family.
Commit suicide?! Cliff jumping?! Ye Zhenzhen's heart trembled.
As a woman from a family, she knows how powerful this is. If you are insulted and lose your reputation, no matter how delicate you are, you will not be able to escape the miserable end.
Since ancient times, I don't know how many women in the boudoir have been tired of a lifetime by a reputation that they don't know what to do, and their lives have been ruined.
Hearing this, she was a little dumbfounded.
How the tragedy was staged made people sigh and be extremely depressed.
Xiao Ze collected all his feelings. Sit upright and say nothing.
Ye Zhenzhen was silent. She didn't know how to comfort the man in front of her at this time. is also a woman, she really can't say that he is not wrong.
In the quiet time between the two of them, the carriage had accelerated at some point. In the blink of an eye, a noisy and noisy sound came, and the city walls were already in sight.
Xiao Ze also opened his eyes.
With an unquestionable assurance, the low voice said word by word to the little girl who was blinking, "I will not let the tragedy happen again!" I will always be there until I send you safely to the Yang family in Beicheng!"
Ye Zhenzhen...
All right. She was shocked again. I don't know how to answer. However, a thank you is too pale. She could only nod her head vigorously, a smile on her face that was touching - albeit with a little flattery. Hehe.
The carriage soon entered the city. The streets are still bustling. They turned left and right into a secluded alley, and stopped at the door of an inconspicuous house.
Ye Zhenzhen looked around, her eyes full of doubts.
Xiao Ze jumped out of the carriage first.
One of the people who was driving the car buckled on the dark door. A mother-in-law in coarse cloth opened the door, and when she saw Xiao Ze, she hurriedly saluted.
Xiao Ze looked back at the little girl in the car, "Hurry up and come down and follow me in." ”
The little girl pouted. Moving under his feet, his eyes are constantly looking around.
Several people entered the courtyard, and the woman carefully covered the door before she came forward to speak.
"Childe came back a little late... At this time, I am afraid that the house already knows. She pointed her hand in the direction of Ye Fu.
Xiao Ze stood with his hands in his hands, dressed in white under the moonlight, like a handsome boy who did not touch the dust of the world. Listening to the old woman's words, she wrinkled her eyebrows slightly. looked at Ye Zhenzhen on the side again, and couldn't help but want to hold her forehead.
The little girl was bent over her waist, playing under the wooden fence that was only half a man high, poking her head out for a while, and staring at the bricks on the ground in amazement, and having fun.
He breathed a sigh of relief. Rolled up his sleeves and walked in, "You take her to change her clothes, and then go to the flower hall to find me, faster." ”
The woman looked at the slender figure who hurried away, and then looked at the little girl who was still a child who was still happy as if no one was playing on the side, and couldn't help but shake her head.
As the saying goes, heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass. But that's still a naughty childlike beauty! Hey, I can only be secretly depressed...
