Chapter 527: Marriage
Yu Shu returned to the Wangji Building, the night was already deep, holding the sandalwood brocade box containing the golden jade hibiscus, the original good mood was disturbed by Jingchen on the road, plus a night of twists and turns, Fang felt tired.
However, when she entered the backyard, she saw the figure standing and waiting in the corridor downstairs, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook, and she was a few steps faster.
"Big brother is waiting for me?"
Xue Rui smiled and nodded, stared at her and walked in front of him, before he stretched out his hand, plucked the crystal bead flower that she was crumbling on the side of her ear, pinched it in her hand and rubbed it twice, and handed it back to her.
"Isn't this body sinking, go back to the room and change it, I'll wait for you to have supper, I have something to say to you."
Yu Shu rubbed the stiff back of her neck, and said in her heart that if it weren't for the silver of the white flowers, she would not be guilty of this sin, but she said proudly:
"Isn't this beautiful, I looked in the mirror before I went out, and I was shocked, tsk, sure enough, people rely on clothes, Buddha wants gold clothes, I really dress up, and I can be regarded as a beauty."
After that, he raised his eyebrows and smiled at him, but he didn't know that such a charming look was enough to make people's hearts beat.
Xue Rui's eyes were a little deep, he raised his hand and pinched her face, and said with a low smile: "I am not rare to be a beauty, it is rare to have such a thick-skinned beauty." β
"Huh," Yu Shu knocked off his flirtatious fingers, looking at his handsome face with peach blossoms, he remembered several of his public cases, smiled coldly, and poked his fingers in his chest:
"I'll settle accounts with you later."
She turned around and went upstairs to change her clothes, leaving Xue Rui confused, secretly wondering where she had provoked her
Wait until Yu Shu freshens up and changes into a refreshing cotton silk dress. Xue Rui still couldn't think of where he had done something wrong tonight, and he needed her to "settle accounts" with him.
Yu Shu, who was plain-faced, disappeared from the eye-catching cold appearance at the banquet, but the momentum was still there, she put the brocade box in her hand on the table, sat down opposite Xue Rui, and stared at him for a while, Xue Rui felt that her right eyelid was jumping, and she had a slightly bad premonition.
Sure enough, I saw Yu Shu knocking on the table with one hand and asking expressionlessly:
"That's it, Lord Xiwen. What about Miss Rui of the Earl's Court? Big brother Mo didn't forget something. You need to explain to me. β
Rui Zizhu said that she had missed the marriage between the Xue family and the Earl's Mansion, and Yu Shu was very angry when she first heard it, but she didn't faint with anger. Think about it calmly. The first thing is to ask Xue Rui for an understanding. Let's see if he knows the Tao.
If he is also kept in the dark, then there are extenuating circumstances, if he knows about it and does not report it. Deliberately concealing her-
Yu Shu's fists clenched on his knees.
As soon as Xue Rui heard her question, he had a headache, and immediately guessed that she had heard about Xue Rui's marriage proposal, seeing that she looked calm and calm, and knew that she didn't hide the sand in her eyes, if he couldn't say the reason tonight, this little white-eyed wolf would turn his face and not recognize people.
Xue Rui got up and sat down next to Yu Shu, whether she liked it or not, and grabbed her hand first.
"Ashu, this is the eldest brother's fault, I told you the truth, you are not allowed to separate from me."
Yu Shu sighed in his heart, listened to his speech, obviously informed, sank his face suddenly, and said:
"So, you do have a marriage contract with Miss Narui?"
"It's nothing," Xue Rui denied it without thinking about it, seeing that her face was not good, lest she think about it, he hurriedly explained:
"My grandfather is interested in marrying the Earl's Court, the young lady of the Yirui family, but this marriage has not yet been decided, but the elders of the two parties have spoken to each other, and they have not seriously proposed the marriage."
Yu Shu smiled angrily, shook off his hand, and said: "Your family helped you get married, but you are hiding it from me, if I hadn't heard her say that I leaked my mouth tonight, do you plan to wait for this good thing to come and talk to me again?" When you come to coax me again, so that you can hug left and right, and enjoy the blessings of all people, right? β
"Nonsense," Xue Rui listened to her speculation with tears and laughter, grabbed her hand back, and held it firmly, lest she run away from being unhappy:
"You should listen to me first, and then it will not be too late to annoy meβfirst of all, it is not my will to marry the Earl's Court. I and the tenth princess of the year, you also know, outsiders are because of my Xue family died, my grandfather inevitably touched the saint sad, these years have not talked about marriage with me, the tenth princess is the queen's daughter, there are people who want to be with my Xue family, but also to weigh, the Earl's Mansion is the queen's mother's house, my grandfather intends to marry, on the one hand, he also has the intention of repairing with the Rui family, but whether the marriage is successful or not, but it is not the two families who say it, but also the will of the saint. β
"That's why I thought that this marriage couldn't be done overnight, so I thought about how to make my grandfather dispel his thoughts, and at that time, you still regarded me as a big brother, how could I mention this to you, so I hid it."
After listening to his words, Yu Shu's temperament disappeared by half, straightened out his thoughts, and said with a stiff face:
"If you didn't tell me before, forget it, why didn't you discuss it with me later, and I was so unreasonable?"
Originally, she didn't believe that Xue Rui would be a half-hearted person, not to mention that she saw him jump into the unpredictable Dingbo Lake tonight, and was willing to take risks for her words, this man's heart for her was beyond doubt.
It's only that she heard about it from Rui Zizhu's mouth, and when she remembered the delicate Miss Rui's shy answer, she couldn't get angry, and a mouthful of sour water choked in her throat.
Xue Rui saw that her attitude softened, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Strange people are not as good as heaven, do you know, what was my original idea?" β
Yu Shu shook his head, and for a while he couldn't think of any good way to push off this marriage.
"I've been eyeing this year's Furong Gentlemen's Banquet early in the morning." Xue Rui said in a low voice.
Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood what he meant, and his mood suddenly became complicated.
"I originally thought that I would win the golden jade hibiscus and give it to you in public to show my heart, and I became a marriage, and my grandfather couldn't force me, and the marriage with the Earl's Court was naturally over, who knowsββ"
"Who knew that I had become the life-breaker of Na Laoshizi, not to mention a golden jade hibiscus, even if there are a hundred flowers, it is difficult to achieve good things." Yu Shu's voice was heavy.
From the moment Jingchen decided that she was a lifebreaker, she was tied to a rope around her neck, and the end of the rope was held in the hands of the Son of Heaven of the Da'an Dynasty.
She is in such a big trouble, it is difficult for Xue Rui to have the courage to accept it.
Xue Rui saw her expression change, guessed why she was worried, sighed secretly, pulled her hand to her chest, rubbed her slender and cold fingers, and said slowly:
"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, you must not worry too much, with you and I working together, we will be able to find a perfect solution."
"Hmm," Yu Shu didn't want Xue Rui to worry, so he restrained those negative emotions, frowned again, and said:
"Then what are you going to do with your marriage to the Rui family? The young lady of the Rui family can be provoked by Xi Wen to deal with me in a few words, it seems that she has decided that you, if this marriage does not work, will it be self-defeating, so that the queen's side will misunderstand even more. β
The queen has no children under her knees, if the Xue family intends to support Liu Tan to ascend to the throne, it is of course best to get the support of the Rui family, on the contrary, the feud between the two families will not be conducive to the future.
There is nothing wrong with Yu Shu thinking about it like this, but when Xue Rui heard this, his eyes flickered, and he smiled slightly:
"There have been festivals for a long time, and a lot of this one is self-defeating, not necessarily a bad thing."
His words were vague and flickering, as if he didn't care about the grudge with the Earl's Palace, Yu Shu couldn't help but be curious: "How do you say this?" β
Xue Rui didn't answer, pulled her up her fingers and kissed her, and said lightly: "I have another way to push off this marriage, you don't have to worry about it, but you said where is the gift for my other half, I have worked hard to grab the golden jade hibiscus, waiting to exchange love tokens with you." β
Yu Shu couldn't stand his intimate actions, so he pulled his hand back and glared at him angrily:
"You're embarrassed to mention to me, I asked you to take the golden jade hibiscus in exchange, but I didn't let you take your life in exchange, you dare to beat to the lake in the heart of the water is not good, it's really a good thing, where do you ask me to cry."
Xue Rui smiled, regardless of her cold face, raised his hand and pinched her soft chin, and said:
"I'm really so useless, and I'm not worthy of you, a female operator who can tell the difference between life and death."
With that, he got up and went into the bedroom, and after a while, he came out with the purple jade hairpin in his hand and sent it to Yu Shu.
"This year's golden jade hibiscus is made of ice qiong chiseled in the snowy mountains, it is cold when it is hot, it is very rare, it is hot and hot in recent days, you put it at the head of the bed, to ensure a good night's sleep."
Yu Shu took it, and after a closer look, it was a ingenious thing, the hairpin head carved by the purple jade was only one-third the size of the real hibiscus flower, but there were hundreds of layers of petals stacked inside and out, as thin as ice yarn, transparent like silkworm clothes, blooming, faint and purple, so untouching.
She played with it lovingly for a while, before she looked up and said to Xue Rui:
"Did you open the half of the gift I gave you at night?"
Before Xue Rui went down to the lake to look for the lamp, Yu Shu gave him a bag of tips, which contained an amethyst fan pendant that had nourished his spirit in the feng shui pool.
"Didn't have time to open it." Xue Rui took out the bag from his clothes and was about to open it to look at it, but he didn't pay attention, and Yu Shu reached out and snatched it and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"Huh? What are you doing? β
"I said that I would give you the other half, it will take a few days to complete, I will keep this half for you first, and I will give it to you together, big brother, wait, my gift must be to your liking."
If he wants to see this pendant, and guess that she is going to give a handle fan, then what surprise is there.
Xue Rui looked at her Laipi, narrowed his eyes, bent down with his backhand, and approached her with a handsome face:
"I've been busy all night, and in the end I'm empty-handed, and I don't do any good, would you be happy if it were you?"
Yu Shu admitted that he was at a loss, laughed dryly, subconsciously shrunk his neck, and rolled his eyes in an attempt to fool the past: "It's just a few days late, I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you, what are you anxious about-"
Before he finished speaking, he held his face, his lips were close to each other, and his breathing instantly became hot. (To be continued......)
