Chapter 17 Appeal under the Red Plum Tree

Among the white plums, the red plum does not need to pose too much, just stands there quietly, and it is like a peerless beauty, always attracting the attention of people who break into this place at the first time.

But at this time, the young man under the plum tree is like a pearl and beautiful jade, the halo is shining, the girl is like a hibiscus out of the water, beautiful and moving, a pair of beautiful people stand opposite each other, and forcibly snatch the brilliance of the red plum, at least in Cheng Wei's eyes, at this time, I can't see the red plum, only the two people.

At this time, the snow was a little smaller, like catkins flying all over the sky, falling on the corners of Cheng Wei's hair and skirt.

The maid followed, and the word "girl" hadn't blurted out yet, but when she saw the two people under the plum tree, she subconsciously stopped and carefully looked at Cheng Wei's expression.

She saw that the little girl who was still able to laugh at herself and smile bitterly before was expressionless at the moment, and her eyes were so black that she looked straight ahead, as if she had been seduced by a mountain demon.

The maid suddenly felt a little unbearable, quietly moved her steps, and raised the umbrella higher to prevent the snow foam from falling on Cheng Wei.

The surroundings were very quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing the snow and the shadow of the plum blossoms, and the conversation between the young man and the girl under the red plum tree came clearly.

"Cousin Yao, I'...... You know my mind, I just want to ask, what do you think? ”

Cheng Yao half-lowered her head and turned her back to Cheng Wei, Cheng Wei couldn't see her expression, but her voice was heard clearly: "I...... What do I think......"

"Cousin Yao!" Han Zhi seemed to be a little anxious, took a step forward, the two of them got closer, Xu felt that there was no one around, and his voice was even higher than before, "At this time, do you still want to pretend to be stupid?" You should understand that after the little coming-of-age ceremony, my mother began to look for a suitable girl for me! ”

Cheng Yao took half a step back, her voice calm, but that trace of reluctance was still keenly captured by Cheng Wei: "Then congratulations to my cousin, I wish you to find a good mate as soon as possible." ”

"Cheng Yao!"

Cheng Wei could clearly see the angry and angry expression on Han Zhi's face, and then her expressionless armament finally cracked, and she was extremely surprised for a moment.

Han Zhi suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Cheng Yao's hand.

Cheng Wei's gaze moved down slightly, landing on the hands of the two of them.

The young man's hands are slender and slender, with distinct joints, and the girl's hands are white and delicate, soft as boneless, holding them together like this, as if they were born like this, but Cheng Wei felt that it was extremely dazzling, which made another scene involuntarily appear in her mind.

She carefully grabbed the young man's thin and flowing sleeves, and mustered up the courage to ask: "Cousin Zhi, I will marry you in the future, and the two of us have been accompanying our grandfather, grandmother, and uncle and aunt, okay?" ”

As if he had seen a ghost, the young man hurriedly pulled his sleeve out of her hand with enough strength, his voice was as cold as ice, and he said word by word: "Cousin Wei, please respect yourself!" ”

Cheng Wei came back to his senses and looked at the two people not far away, feeling a little confused.

The same person, how can it be so different, Zhi cousin reprimanded her with righteous words like this, "Please respect yourself", but right now, he is holding the second sister's hand and not letting go.

At this time, Cheng Wei even forgot all his moods, only curiosity remained.

Will the second sister say, "Stop cousin, please respect yourself"?

Cheng Wei saw Cheng Yao struggling a few times, but instead of struggling away, Han Zhi grabbed it tighter, and the two got closer, while Cheng Yao Xu saw that he couldn't let go, so he gave up struggling, and said angrily: "Cousin Zhi, please let go!" ”

"No, if you don't answer today, I won't let go."

Hearing this, Cheng Yao actually didn't move.

Cheng Wei's eyes suddenly widened, and a very strange thought crossed his mind.

It turns out that it can still be like this.

At that time, when Cousin Zhi scolded her, if she also clung to it, what would the result be?

Cheng Yao's voice rang out: "Cousin Zhi, why do you want to be like this, you obviously know that it is impossible for us!" Although I have a reputation as the first talented woman in the capital, no matter how much others praise me on weekdays, when I really talk about marriage, everyone will remember that I am just a concubine from a humble background! ”

"What about the maiden?"

Cheng Yao smiled bitterly: "How about the concubine, just take a look at it." Cousin Zhi, you are the prince of the first-class national mansion, the future Duke of Weiguo, the old lady, and the wife of the prince, how can you agree to let you marry a concubine? Could it be that you want to accept me as a concubine? Although I, Cheng Yao, have a humble status, I will never be a concubine! ”

"Don't talk nonsense, how could I wronged you like this!" Han Zhi seemed to be a little anxious.

"Cousin Zhi, I am very grateful that you have this intention, but since it is impossible between us, in the future, please don't provoke me. I'm cautious, I don't dare to say a word on weekdays, I don't dare to do anything wrong, I finally have a day like today, I don't want to be ruined because of your temporary love! ”

"Cousin Yao, I know you're not having a good time, your aunt is short-tempered, and Cousin Che only has Cousin Wei alone in his eyes, and Cousin Wei ...... She is stubborn and willful, and you have been blindly accommodating and tolerant over the years, and you must have suffered a lot of grievances. It is precisely because of this that I am reluctant to let you be wronged again, I want to take care of you for the rest of my life, give you the best, and you deserve the best! Han Zhi said that he was excited, stretched out his hand, and pulled Cheng Yao into his arms.

The voice behind him was lowered, but every word was like thunder, falling into Cheng Wei's ears: "What's more, my mother also said that in terms of temperament and temperament, my cousin Wei is far inferior to you, so it can be seen that my mother also likes you." As for my grandmother, she is old and sometimes loses her temper like a child, but in fact, it would be nice to coax more. She just loves her cousin, but she doesn't value her granddaughter-in-law's background as much as an ordinary old lady, with your character, she will like it after getting along for a long time. Our Guogong Mansion is already a big tree, and we don't need a noble-born wife to add icing on the cake. When I come back, I will beg my aunt to put you in my name, and with your reputation for both talent and virtue, it is not impossible for the elders to do this family business. ”

Cheng Yao's voice suddenly choked: "Cousin Zhi, please don't say this, I don't want to be said by you to have thoughts that you shouldn't have, hurting others and yourself." ”

Han Zhi looked at Cheng Yao seriously, and suddenly showed a smile: "Cousin Yao, I understand what you mean." Wait, I'll give you an explanation. ”

Sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys, it was the time when he was most impulsive, Han Zhi's nature was quite steady, he thought he understood his sweetheart's intentions, and immediately took the initiative to let go of Cheng Yao, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, turned around and strode away.

After listening to it for more than ten years, the familiar footsteps became farther and farther away, because there was snow on the ground, and it was soon inaudible.

Cheng Wei stared at Cheng Yao who was thoughtful under the red plum tree, and suddenly like a puppet injected with vitality, he pushed away the maid holding the umbrella and ran in front of Cheng Yao like a whirlwind.

PS: I'm going to catch the train later, I hope there won't be a traffic jam! I wish all the children's shoes who are going out a safe journey.
