Out of her mother's yard, the smile on Feng Chujiu's face disappeared, she really couldn't laugh.

Walking side by side with Shen Mu, Shen Mu still noticed her emotions, although usually her cousin was only stranger to herself... Closer, but not so silent, Shen Mu rolled his eyes and asked softly:

"Isn't Chu'er happy? But what's on your mind? ”

Feng Chujiu thought about it, he was still in the house, so he didn't think to ask him, so he had to turn his head and laugh:

"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

Just turning her head like this, Shen Mu suddenly found that her left face didn't seem to be quite the same as the one on the right, and her tone was a little not good:

"Chu'er, what's going on with your face?"

Feng Chujiu heard him ask about this, stumbled under his feet for no reason, and replied to Shen Mu with some embarrassment:

"Actually... The eyes don't need to be so good..."

“…”

Shen Mu heard that she wanted to divert the topic, but she didn't give up, and approached her closer:

"Isn't it... Uncle did it again? ”

“…”

Feng Chujiu really wanted to support his forehead, it seemed that he was really famous for being beaten often, so he was silent at the moment.

"Uncle, he..."

Shen Mu frowned, watching his cousin silent, and couldn't help but feel irritable.

He knew that Feng Wenhan always liked to find trouble with Feng Chu Jiu, to be precise, to be provocative.

But this time, my cousin obviously made a meritorious service, and even the emperor wanted to reward her, so why was my uncle dissatisfied? sighed and looked at Feng Chujiu, who was a little reluctant to face, and his tone was lighter, with a hint of helplessness:

"Even if you don't answer, I can guess seven or eight..."

“…”

Feng Chujiu looked at him with a somewhat angry look, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Don't mention it, I'll take you to the downtown to relax, but you have to promise me!"

Shen Mu took one more step forward, stood in front of Feng Chujiu, held her shoulders with both hands, and said in a distressed tone:

"What delicious and fun to see tonight, don't be polite to me, my cousin will buy it for you!"

"Poof..."

Feng Chujiu heard what he said seriously, but he really smiled, looked at him and said unceremoniously:

"Don't cry when you're poor!"

Shen Mu listened to her relaxed tone, and his mood improved, and he looked at her dotingly and smiled:

"I can't ask for it."

Seeing the sincerity of his smile, Feng Chujiu suddenly felt a little dazed... Do you want to ask him?

Before she could react, Shen Mu directly took her hand and said softly:

"Let's go."

Looking at Shen Mu who was leading the way in front, Feng Chujiu looked down at Shen Mu's subconscious hand again, wanting to break free but a little unbearable.

If it was okay before, I just felt that there was nothing awkward between the brothers and sisters, but whether it was true or false in the dream, it made me feel a little estranged in my heart...

Although Shen Mu really has nothing to say to himself...

After thinking about it, I finally didn't break free, first... Give a sweet date, after all, I'll have to say some cruel things later...

In this way, it was taken to the downtown area, where the lights were bright, some entertainment venues, and various styles of lanterns were hung in front of the shops, and there were small vendors in front of the lanterns who were selling their goods by the light, and the shouting was continuous.

The downtown is after the palace gate is closed, before the sub-hour, and the party can be opened during this time, so the people take advantage of this time to come out to shop and play.

"Chu'er, what else do you want to eat?!"

Shen Mu was holding a bunch of food in his arms, and he poked his head out to ask Feng Chu Jiu, who was munching on sugar gourds on the side.

"Huh? … Well, I think, enough is enough, some are too much. ”

Feng Chujiu looked at Shen Mu and saw that his hands were full of things, and he couldn't bear it.

Although it was all said by Shen Mu, this is delicious, that is delicious, I bought it directly, the key is that Feng Chujiu wanted to take it himself, but he didn't let it, with a conscience, Feng Chujiu was really a little embarrassed.

"What's polite with me?"

Shen Mu's face pretended to be sinking, as if he was dissatisfied.

"I'm not willing to save money, it's really hard to serve."

Feng Chujiu smacked his lips, bit down another sugar gourd, and muttered with bulging cheeks.

"At the rate at which you spend money, I will have no problem raising you for a few lifetimes." Shen Mu looked at her with some disdain.

"Can you guarantee that you will be so rich in the next life? Maybe you'll be a poor ghost in your next life, and you won't be able to borrow money from me! ”

Feng Chujiu listened to him complain, and he also choked him mercilessly.

"You girl..."

Shen Mu saw that she was in a happy mood, and she no longer fought back, smiled helplessly, and suddenly didn't know what she saw, and stopped in front of a stall.

"Shen..."

Feng Chujiu walked two steps and found that no one was following, so he turned around and wanted to call him, but found that he was seriously picking something in front of a stall, so he turned back again:

"What are you looking at?"

"Hairpins."

Shen Mu turned his head to look at her, then lowered his head and continued to choose with a smile, on the stall in front of him, there were dozens of styles of hostas, and Feng Chujiu's eyes were a little spent.

"Childe, who do you want to give the hairpin to?"

The stall owner saw that he was dressed extraordinarily, and hurriedly got up enthusiastically to greet him.

Shen Mu listened to the boss's words, looked up at him, seemed to think for a while, and then said seriously:

"I want to give... A special girl. ”

"If you want to choose a hairpin to give to your sweetheart, then I will recommend it to you."

The boss was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, his expression was a little subtle, with an expression of 'I understand', and he hurriedly took action, but Feng Chujiu frowned behind him.

Soon the boss selected a hairpin and handed it to Shen Mu with both hands, and Feng Chujiu couldn't help but look at the hairpin:

It is a white hosta, the hairpin is bright and clear, there are a few tassels hanging down, it is more delicate, the jade color is pure and clean, it can be seen that it is the top grade, there is a cool breeze blowing at night, the tassel blows with the wind, making a crisp sound.

The boss saw that Shen Mu was a little moved, and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot:

"This hairpin is called Xueluo, this son, you should also be able to see... This color is also of the highest quality, if it is given to the girl, it will definitely win the heart! ”

"I bought this hairpin, how much silver."

Shen Mu was really moved and paid directly.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, one hundred and fifty taels of silver."

The boss had a smile on his face even more, and his hands kept rubbing, a little expectant.

"Okay."

Shen Mu nodded, one hundred and fifty taels was really for him... It's not expensive, put the things in his hand on the ground at the moment, and took out the money bag from his sleeve, Feng Chujiu stretched out his hand to block it, signaling him not to buy it.

But Shen Mu just smiled at her, and regardless of her movements, he took out a few silver tickets from his money bag and handed them to the boss.

"Okay, take this son."

Looking at the silver ticket in his hand, the corners of the boss's mouth are almost to the root of his ears, although the color of this hairpin is good, it is not worth so much, or look at the clothes of this son, just knocked him a comparison, I didn't expect this boy to really refute, this can be said to be profitable...

Leaving the stall, the more Feng Chu Jiu thought about it, the more angry he became, stopped, turned around and looked at Shen Mu helplessly, and said to him:

"Even if this hairpin is good, it is definitely not worth the one hundred and fifty taels! But you don't even talk about the price, you just buy it..."

"I think it's too cheap for you."

Shen Mu also stopped, looked at her and said, in a word... Suddenly, Feng Chu Jiu didn't know what to say, and asked with some uncertainty:

"Send... Send me...? ”

"Silly girl, who else would I give it to?"

Shen Mu seemed to feel a little funny, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he raised his hand to carefully insert the hosta in his hand into Feng Chujiu's hair.

However, the hairpin was immediately taken down by Feng Chujiu, who held it in his hand, looked down at the hairpin and was silent for a long time, Feng Chujiu finally looked up at Shen Mu and asked:

"Two years ago... My father asked me to marry you, but you mentioned it? ”

Shen Mu originally looked at her and was smiling, but when she asked, the smile paused for no reason, seemed to be a little embarrassed, pursed his lips and said:

"You... Got it? ”

"Yes."

Feng Chujiu nodded, but he was a little surprised in his heart, what he said in the dream was... It's true.

"That's... You..."

Shen Mu seemed a little nervous and wanted to ask her what she thought, but Feng Chujiu interrupted him and said first:

"I gave the answer two years ago, two years ago, and now... So, you don't have to be so nice to me anymore..."

“…”

Shen Mu was stunned, looking at Feng Chujiu's eyes flickering a little, and the hand under Feng Chujiu's sleeves was also slightly curled up, but he still responded to his gaze hard, making himself look firmer...

"Oh..."

Shen Mu suddenly lowered his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, then took a breath and said:

"It's okay, I'm your brother, good to you... It was supposed to be. ”

"I mean... I don't like you, and you don't waste any more time on me. ”

Feng Chujiu didn't want to say such cruel words, but she really didn't want to give Shen Mu the illusion that she also accepted him.

It's scary and will delay him...

"Chu'er, this seems to... It's my business, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Shen Mu didn't listen to her at all, seemed to be immune to her words, and smiled brightly.

"I'm afraid of delaying you... Why don't you understand, what do you really like about me? Bad temper..."

Feng Chujiu couldn't help but be a little angry, feeling that Shen Mu was a little hopeless, he couldn't help but aggravate his tone, and before she could finish speaking, Shen Mu approached her, but Wen Sheng interrupted her firmly:

"Some people think it at a glance, no matter what happens to her."

"You..."

Feng Chu Jiu didn't seem to expect him to say this, blinked, took two steps back and seemed to want to distance himself, but Shen Mu followed closely and walked over, and said with a smile, but there was a little trembling between the words:

"When I was a child, in the back flower courtyard of the Shen Mansion, a group of children... Sweet date tree, do you remember? ”

"I..."

Hearing him mention this, Feng Chujiu's brows furrowed, and he quickly found the memory of this place...

Shen Mu was nine years old that year, and Feng Chu was nine or seven years old.

Shen Mu had a serious illness because he didn't take good care of him when he was a child, and his body has always been relatively weak since then, so he has hardly touched the heavy work in the Shen Mansion.

It's because he is used to being spoiled, Shen Mu was a little stubborn when he was a child, and he didn't study well when he went to school, and occasionally bullied his classmates in the same class, so most of the children of the same age didn't like him very much.

When Shen Mu celebrated his ninth birthday, Shen's father specially invited his classmates from the school and Mr. Teaching to Shen Mansion as guests.

Let Xiao Shen Mu be the host, take his friends to walk around the Shen Mansion, this time, he walked to the garden of the Shen Mansion, it is the season, the jujube trees planted in the backyard bear fruit, and the red ones make people have an appetite when they see it...

The classmates in the classmate hall asked Shen Mu if he could pick food, and after he agreed, they all climbed trees to pick the sweet dates.

Because Shen Mu was frail, he had never been exposed to this kind of climbing trees and going into the water since he was a child, so he could only stand under the tree and be anxious, wanting his classmates to pick a few for himself to taste.

But because of his usual behavior, everyone actually stood on the tree together, and you looked at me and mocked him with a word:

"No matter how powerful you are on weekdays? Reality is not a child who has to be helped when he walks? ”

"It's just... Hahaha..."

"If you want to eat, you can do it yourself!"

Because it was Shen Mu who volunteered to take them to play, so there was no one to follow, so those classmates dared to have a good time.

Listening to their ridicule, Shen Mu was not angry, but suddenly woke up and had low self-esteem: he didn't have these things since he was a child, and he received special care from the house because of his frailty.

Thinking of this, he became depressed in his heart, bowed his head like a child who had done something wrong, and was coldly sarcastic by them.

At this moment, there was a crisp sound of bells in the courtyard, and then an immature child's voice sounded:

"Do you dare to compete with me?!"
