Prepare to run away from marriage
Chu Tao walked three steps, but turned around and found that Xue Congjia was still standing in place, looking down at the purse she had gifted, so she mustered up her courage, turned back again, and ran to Xue Congjia's side, she asked: "I heard the old man on this island say, you used to have a childhood sweetheart girl by your side?" β
Hatsu Peach refers to Arou, who has died.
Xue Congjia's tone was detached: "This has nothing to do with you." β
"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of Xile, I'm not afraid of others, but I'm afraid of a person who no longer exists, if she has always been in your heart, then what should I do, how can I compare with a dead person?" Hatsu Tao said anxiously.
"What are you talking about?" Xue Congjia frowned, it was obviously a cold night in winter, why did he feel that Chu Tao's whole person was steaming, and the temperature around him was rising.
"I meanβhow do I know if she's pretty or not, how pretty, has she ever sat on that swing...... Do you like her or not......" Hatsumo's sentence began to get confused.
No, what is this stupid girl thinking, she can't think like this. Xue Congjia felt that she was constantly testing on the edge of danger, and she was like a careless moth, constantly trying to get close to a raging flame.
It shouldn't be allowed to go that way.
Xue Congjia took a deep breath and replied indifferently: "I've never seen a person really like another person, I don't think this kind of thing exists outside of the script." I found out when I was a kid that it's better to put all your feelings in yourself than to expect something someone else can bring to you. β
Chu Tao gritted her teeth and said, "Do you know that I really want to see you these days? β
"I don't know, and I can't stop you from thinking so." Xue Congjia said.
So the irascible Miss Jiang Chutao punched Xue Congjia in the abdomen...... Okay, okay, Chu Tao admitted, she just likes Xue Congjia, in Chu Tao's world, if you like it, you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, since Xue Congjia doesn't like herself, then she will find a way to make him like herself. But wouldn't this be another Xile?
Thinking of this, she felt that the initiator was this damn Xue Congjia!
So once again, she was annoyed and angry, and her fist went uncontrollably.
After giving Xue Congjia a fist, Chu Tao rushed back to the room angrily, Xiao Zi hurriedly served the decanting soup, and nagged: "Why did it take so long for you to come back, my sobering soup has been heated three times, Miss, drink it slowly, don't choke, slow down." β
Chu Tao picked up the decanting soup, drank three cups in a row, the black soup and her wanton tears mixed together and flowed down her neck, crying so that a pear blossom with rain, the sadness and weakness made the listener can't help but have a sour nose.
Xiaohong communicated with Xiaozi in private, and Xiaohong said worriedly: "It's okay to say it, lest Miss don't give up, Madam is right, the two of them can't be a couple." β
Xiao Zi shook her head and said, "Could it be that Miss and the Sun family should be a natural pair?" Sun Yihao's mouth is full of chapters, he loves to climb and be elegant, it's not that I don't favor our young lady, he and Miss are playing the piano to the cow, our young lady doesn't like this at all, Miss is such a stubborn person, how can a twisted melon be sweet. β
"Think about it from another angle, for Xue, Miss is also the twisted melon." Xiaohong said. So the two sighed in unison. In the bedroom, there was the sound of the first peach ghost crying wolf.
Chu Tao lay on the bed and cried heartbreakingly, in addition to being sad and sad, Chu Tao felt more grievances. If you don't like yourself, why help yourself with snake wounds? If you don't like yourself, why bother with your stubborn illness? If you don't like yourself, why don't you kick yourself out of his perched bamboo pavilion? If you don't like yourself, why hug yourself when you're about to slip?
Now Hatsu Tao has figured it out, because he doesn't like himself, so all of this can be established.
In his eyes, he is just an ignorant little sister, perfunctory when he is happy, and lazy to take care of himself when he is unhappy. She thought that she would be a little different in his heart, but now that she thinks about it, isn't she the same as Xile? She's just not as annoying as Xile.
It turns out that the feeling of liking someone is like this, even if he ties Xue Congjia to his side, as long as he doesn't like himself, then he won't be happy.
God, why did you want me Jiang Chutao to suffer like this. first arranged for herself to marry someone she didn't like, and then let the person she liked reject her love, if Xue Congjia could like herself a little bit, she would willingly accept the punishment brought by those actions to get rid of the marriage with the Sun family, but she was like a fool, powerless to resist.
Woowoo...... Chu Tao cried, her eyes were swollen high, and most of her pillow was wet, and suddenly she felt her stomach tumbling, and she couldn't help but vomit.
Poor Chu Tao cried and vomited, tossed for most of the night, and fell asleep at the end of the day.
On the second day, Chu Tao's eyes were swollen like rotten peaches, with two huge black circles, lying on the table in a languid manner, Xue Zicheng saw Chu Tao's ghostly appearance, quietly slipped to Chu Tao's side, and slapped Chu Tao's back, which scared Chu Tao's body, Chu Tao turned around, rolled his eyes at Xue Zicheng, and ignored him. Xue Zicheng touched his nose and said to Chu Tao, "You went out with your little guard last night to fool around?" β
Jiang Chutao and people on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival "elopement" spread to everyone, and later Liu came out to clarify, saying that the whole family was in the moon tower that night to admire the moon, and the handsome little student who appeared next to Chu Tao was the guard in the Jiang Mansion, the two were just master and servant, and there was no elopement.
A few days ago, when Xue Zicheng entered the palace to greet his mother, the concubine specially inquired about this matter. That's what he said at the time, Jiang Chutao was originally a bold crazy girl, and he wasn't surprised at all when he did anything, as for the little guard, it was very likely that it was Xue Congjia, but both of them denied it, so others didn't take them seriously, especially Princess Xile, who simply regarded Chu Tao as a thorn in her hand and a thorn in her eye, if it weren't for the holy decree that accompanied her to Xi Le herself, I am afraid that Jiang Chutao would have been driven out of Yingzhou Island a long time ago.
Xue Zicheng knew that his mother had always been particularly attentive to Jiang Chutao's niece, so he deliberately belittled Jiang Chutao's cousin as worthless, and Concubine Zhen was silent for a long time after hearing it, saying that the Liu family had already sent a letter to herself, and she would also report to the emperor in time to let Jiang Chutao return to the house as soon as possible.
Chu Tao supported his head with both hands, and subconsciously glanced at Xue Congjia, but found that he was gone. Chu Tao said: "You go farther, don't bother me here." β
Xue Zicheng is an extremely idle little prince, while he has not yet married, he lives freely, saying that it sounds chic like idle clouds and wild cranes, and it is difficult to say that the mud can't support the wall, a large part of the reason why he can be favored by the emperor is that Concubine Zhen is constantly favored, and the other small part is because he is the emperor's youngest prince.
According to the royal rules, he was also forced to come here to study and practice martial arts, and he was dizzy when he read every day, and the only fun was that Ai Xile ate deflated at Xue Congjia, but it was different when Chu Tao came, regardless of personal likes and dislikes, the arrival of Chu Tao did bring a lot of seasoning to his life.
If the mother didn't care about her so much, maybe she and she could get along well.
"Sister Peach, I'll tell you a story, do you want to listen to it?" Xue Zicheng began to play tricks on Chu Tao again.
Chu Tao covered her ears, shook her head and struggled: "Don't say it, the story of the cat-faced old lady I told last time scared me so much that I couldn't sleep for several nights." β
Xue Zicheng pulled the flower bun on Chu Tao's head with his hand, Chu Tao was wearing a powder blue brocade jacket, and three brightly blooming mountain peach blossoms were inserted on his head, surrounded by some tiny jasmine flowers, pressed under the camellia, and he didn't pay attention to it, only a faint fragrance came from it.
Chu Tao shook her head, and the slender and long shiny ear chains in her ears rattled, lining her slender neck, and her face as white as a camellia was as delicate as porcelain. Even if Xue Zicheng was dissatisfied with Chu Tao, he couldn't praise her amazing beauty.
Xue Zicheng unnaturally touched his nose and said, "Sister Peach, when spring comes, we can practice equestrianism." Xue Congjia followed Mr. Zhu into the hall, Xue Zicheng pointed at Xue Congjia with his thumb, and said: "That guy, riding and swordsmanship are amazing, he can shoot arrows on horses, and he plays polo quite well." β
Chu Tao immediately put the book up to cover his face and said, "What's the matter with me." β
Xue Zicheng said: "It's none of your business, Xile can ride a horse at the age of seven, none of our brothers have beaten her in polo, you can't lose to her." Secretly tell you, she is slightly inferior to you in terms of appearance, and I really can't say anything else. β
Chu Tao put the book in his armpit and took the opportunity to leave: "Why should I compare with her, you are annoyed, go away." β
Xue Zicheng gritted his teeth: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people." β
Xile didn't know how long she had been standing behind the two of them, she stuck her waist and said, "Her marriage is all set, and she will go home to get married in a while, and she can still take care of playing ball?" Xile's voice was not loud or small, clear enough that everyone could hear it.
Xue Congjia didn't even raise his eyebrows.
Spring is finally long overdue. Nacai, ask the name, Naji, Naji, invite, welcome, six etiquettes from the proposal to the completion of the marriage, the Liu family has completed the first three for the first peach, although the Sun family is not very satisfied with the first peach's perverse character, but the son insists on marrying the first peach, plus the Sun family and the Jiang family are families, can only compromise on this family business, after the two families exchanged the eight characters of the birthday, the Sun family sent a pair of geese. Sun Yihao patted his chest and assured Liu that the two would get married when Chu Tao returned from school.
Hatsumomo clicked and cut the pink cherry blossoms that had just been folded from the outside, while listening to Xiaohong describe the dowry with her head down. After finishing speaking, Xiaohong asked, "What are the plans of the young lady?" β
Chu Tao didn't raise his head and said, "You mean how do I clean up that pair of geese?" I don't know if the pair of geese is fat, if they are fat, they will pluck their feathers and roast them, and if they are thin, they will stew and drink soup. β
"......" Xiaohong didn't dare to say a word.
Xiao Zi was terrified when she heard it on the side, and said, "Miss, you can't sprinkle your anger on the heads of the two geese no matter how angry you are, the geese are innocent." β
Chu Tao took care of the flower branches in one hand and the teacup in the other, and said, "If I don't sprinkle my anger on the head of the wild goose, will I sprinkle it on your head?" Last time, I sent you to Sun's house to deliver a letter to Sun Yihao, but as a result, you were stopped by my mother before you left the general's mansion. β
Chu Tao saw that Liu's attitude was very resolute, so she decided to change the method to let Sun Yihao take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, so she wrote several pieces of paper and tried to persuade Sun Yihao to withdraw from the marriage, in addition to this, she also tried to ask her friend Sun Shaomin to persuade her brother, but Sun Shaomin also reluctantly said that her brother recognized herself.
Xiaohong said: "When the companion reading is over, the young lady should go back obediently to prepare for the marriage." β
Chu Tao said: "Prepare your size!" I want to marry you, but I won't marry anyway. β
Xiaozi was worried, she had read the "Peacock Flying Southeast" in the Yuefu folk song, and was very familiar with the two sentences of "take off the skirt and silk shoes, lift yourself to Qingchi" and "wander under the garden tree, hang the southeast branch", she was a little worried that the first peach who was trapped in love would be martyred, ah no, there was no one to accompany her to martyrdom. So she said, "Miss, you must not do anything stupid. β
"What am I doing stupidly? It's a big deal to run away from marriage. Hatsu Tao wrote lightly.
Xiaohong couldn't understand why a famous family would raise a girl like Chu Tao who didn't care about secular etiquette at all, and she was getting bolder and thicker......
Xiao Zi felt that Mrs. usually treats them well, and it is necessary for her to take on the responsibility of persuading Miss, so she said: "Miss, I think it's good to marry into the Sun family, Sun Gongzi has outstanding appearance and character, and he is also sincere to you, so it's okay to try to accept it." β
Xiao Hongzui was quick and added: "But Xue Congjia looks better." β
Chu Tao finally put down the movements in her hand, and she said seriously: "It's none of his business, he doesn't like me, I like him, it's two different things." I didn't reject Brother Sun for him, I know what kind of person I am, I won't like him, if I am allowed to live with someone I don't like for the rest of my life, I might as well die. β
After Hatsu Tao said this, he motioned to the two maids to put all the remaining cherry blossoms on their heads. These days, Chu Tao let Xiaohong secretly take the jewelry on his head, hands, and neck to exchange for silver at the pawnshop.
It seems that Chu Tao has made up her mind to run away from marriage.
But where could she flee? Chu Tao thought about the following, with her father's character, she would be furious when she heard the news of her escape from marriage, and even want to cut off relations with her, but they will definitely be soft-hearted, and when they return home after wandering for a few months, will their father and mother still kick themselves out?
