"Uncle Qiu, since Shaobai is not at home, I will come back another day," Shuqian stood up and was about to leave. Qiu Hongru pondered for a while, raised his head and looked at Shuqian's back as she was leaving, and said, "Shaobai, he is about to get married, I'm afraid it will not be easy for you to see each other." ”

After Shuqian heard this, she did not show great compassion, but hid her pain, and said very calmly: "Whose girl?" ”

"Distant relatives from the Wang family came to propose, they agreed to marry me, and I have no opinion on this Shaobai," It turns out that it is difficult to see Shaobai these days, that is because he already belongs in his heart, maybe she is amorous, we are just ordinary friends who can talk. At this time, Shuqian couldn't hide the sadness in her heart, and even the words she said trembled a little, and said, "Congratulations to him," and slowly walked out of the hall after speaking. Qiu Hongru called in a disciple and said, "Go and send the young lady." ”

"No need, Uncle Qiu, I can go out by myself," Shuqian wiped away the tears on both sides and showed a strong smile, turned to face Qiu Hongru, and pretended to smile: "Thank you." After saying that, he walked out quickly, couldn't hold back the sadness in his heart, ran to a corner and hid and cried secretly.

I don't know when Shaobai walked into the hall, Qiu Hongru looked at Shaobai and said, "Shaobai." ”

At this time, Shaobai's eyes were full of red, and it seemed that he had secretly cried bitterly, and said, "Father, why is this?" Why? ”

"Shaobai, for your father, this is for your good."

Shaobai looked up to the sky and howled, "Ah——! I hate your arrangement," and then ran out of the hall and into his bedroom, crying, "Why? Why was I born into a family of dramatists? Why? I hate the way of the world, why God is so cruel to me. ”

"Senior brother," these junior disciples of his walked in and stood in front of Shaobai's bed, and said, "We have heard the quarrel between you and Master, Miss He is sincere to you, we all support it, go ahead, and recover Miss He Family." ”

Only then did Shaobai lift the quilt, sit on the bed and look at his juniors, and said, "Juniors. ”

"Go through the back door, let's deal with Master, remember not to let Master find out," Shaobai looked at the other junior disciples, and the other junior disciples all nodded and said, "Go ahead, recover Miss He." ”

"Okay," Shaobai sneaked out the back door. Qiu Hongru was pacing around in his hall, seeing that he was uneasy in his own heart, and even began to worry that his actions today hurt Shaobai, they must be father and son, how can there be any reason not to worry about this. So he walked out of the hall slowly, wandered left and right for a while and walked towards the side room, walked to the door of this room, and said, "Shaobai, open the door quickly, it's Master." ”

When his disciples heard Master standing at the door of the room, they all panicked, and one of them stood at the door and said, "Yes, Master," and the rest were walking around the room, all trying to figure out how to do it, panicking like ants in a hot pot.

"Why don't you pretend to be a senior brother."

"How can I pretend to be a senior brother?"

"Quick, lie on the senior brother's bed and pretend to sleep," one of the junior disciples jumped on the white bed and slept with his head covered, and the other junior disciples stepped forward to open the door, all gathered around Qiu Hongru, and said, "Master." ”

"Isn't Shaobai here?"

"Senior brother, he fell asleep in bed." Shaocheng stepped forward and stood behind Qiu Hongru and said.

"Okay, now that the teacher knows, you all go out and practice singing."

"Master."

Qiu Hongru turned around and said very sternly: "Don't you even listen to what you are a teacher say?" After that, Qiu Hongru stepped forward and said, "Shaobai," his junior disciples still refused to leave, and stood behind Qiu Hongru and said, "Senior brother seems to be, like, seems to be very sad." ”

"For the teacher to know, you all retreat."

These disciples of Qiu Hongru all withdrew from the door, did not leave but hid in the corner of the wall and secretly looked into the door, maybe they were all thinking about whether to wear a goof, hoping that it would be best not to wear a goof, if they did, they would definitely be punished. The disciple lying on the bed was even more nervous, covering his head tightly, sweating profusely. Qiu Hongru stood in front of the bed, moved a stool and sat down, and said, "Shaobai, my son, my father usually disciplines you very strictly, even very harshly, that is hatred of iron does not become steel. Maybe you are complaining about being a father, this is for your father's good, Miss He is a very good girl, her father hopes that she can become the daughter-in-law of our Qiu family, and at the same time, she likes this girl, but even if her father agrees, what about her family? We come from a poor background and have no fixed home, and her family or even her grandfather saw his own niece and granddaughter wandering with us? This is our fate, we have to accept our fate, my son. After that, Qiu Hongru sat on the stool for a long time, but there was no movement, he sighed and said, "Think about it yourself." After getting up, they were about to open the door, and their disciples hurriedly dispersed, practicing sound or zama walking in the courtyard, and looked back at Qiu Hongru walking out of the room.

After Shaobai ran out of the theater, he explored along the road, looked along the road, and came to the bank of Wangjiang Lake, where the weeping willows on both sides of the river were like girls with thin waists standing on the riverside and looking out. Shaobai stood at the head of the bridge, looked at these pedestrians, and exclaimed, "Shuqian." ”

Who knew that Shuqian was under this bridge, walked up to the bridge, and said, "Shaobai," when the two were embracing each other, Shuqian turned around and made a very indifferent look. Shaobai was puzzled at this time, so he asked, "Shuqian, what's wrong?" ”

"You and I are just ordinary friends, congratulations, you are about to get married, Yu Shuqian congratulates you on your 100-year reunion," Shuqian turned around and stood at the head of the bridge, looking at the Jinjiang River, pretending to be calm.

"Shuqian, I, Qiu Shaobai, solemnly tell you that in my Qiu Shaobai's heart, I can only tolerate Yu Shuqian alone, but I can't tolerate the second person, the so-called big wedding is my father who made it up to lie to you in order to prevent us from being together," Shaobai stood behind Shuqian, looking at Shuqian's back and said.

Shuqian turned around and looked at Shaobai's gentle eyes, and said, "What you said is true. ”

"It's true," then Shaobai swore to the sky, and said: "I, Qiu Shaobai, swear to the sky, if I have two hearts for Shuqian or even lie and deceive, I will not die well in the future." ”

Yu Shuqian immediately grabbed Shaobai's finger and said, "Okay, I believe you are," Yu Shuqian turned around, and Shaobai hugged her from behind her, looking at the river and autumn water. Shuqian asked, "Why do you say your father is against us being together?" ”

"It's not because of the concept of hierarchy, my life is not worthy of a thousand gold," After that, Shaobai pondered for a long time and said, "It's better for us to run away from home." ”

Shuqian turned to look at Shaobai in front of her, and said: "After my father died, my grandfather took me to treat me as my own, like a granddaughter, if I ran away from home with you, not only your father, but also my grandfather, wouldn't it be sad and sad about this?" ”

"Shuqian, we are not abandoning our home, but leaving for a while, choosing a secluded and undisturbed place to settle down, and living an idyllic life of male farmers and female weavers. Three years later, we had our own children, and when the time came to bring our children back to see my grandfather and my father, their anger in their hearts would disappear and they would agree that we were happy to be together. ”

"Okay, I'll go back and pack up my salutes, and we'll meet at Wangjiang Pavilion early tomorrow morning."

"Well, we'll see you tomorrow," the two of them made an appointment and left, each returning home.

It was already late when Shuqian returned to He Yuan, and after returning to her bedroom, she closed the door tightly, packed her luggage and prepared to leave tomorrow. At this moment, someone stood outside Shuqian's door and called for the door. Shuqian turned around and said, "Who is it?" ”

"Miss, it's the slave maid Luxiu."

"Sister Luxiu, come in."

Lu Xiu pushed open the door, saw the package next to the pillow, and said, "Miss, are you going to..." ”

Shuqian immediately stretched out her fingers and "shh ”

Lu Xiu nodded and said, "Miss, don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone, it's with Qiu Gongzi." ”

Shuqian turned around and just nodded shyly. Lu Xiu looked sideways, and even began to fantasize, smirking: "Miss, it's so romantic." ”

Shuqian sat on the bed, looked at Lu Xiu standing in front of her, and said, "Sister Lu Xiu, what are you thinking nonsense?" ”

"I envy you so much, it's very happy to be able to live an idyllic life with the person you love. When do I meet such a person, I will entrust my life to it. Shuqian sat on the bed like this, looked at the demented expression of Lu Xiu walking around, kept laughing, and said, "Sister Lu Xiu, your disease has been committed again." At this time, Lu Xiu turned around, as if remembering something, and said, "Miss, don't joke, I almost forgot, the old man is waiting for you to come over in the study to ask." ”

"What did Grandpa ask me for?" At this time, Shuqian was wondering if her grandfather already knew about the matter between her and Shaobai, and she was very worried about it when she thought of this, so she walked into the study of the prince with heavy steps, and saluted: "Grandpa." ”

Taigong sat on the chair and said very calmly, "Where have you been?" What kind of body does a daughter's family become when they come back so late? ”

"My niece and granddaughter know that she is wrong, and she will not dare in the future."

"You get up," Shuqian had just stood up, and the princess reprimanded: "The old man knows what is going on between you, what does it look like to stay with a drama all day?" After your father died, the old man came to discipline you. One of your daughters' family should pay attention to their own identity, and the old man will not allow you to come nonsense. ”

At this time, Shuqian seemed to be a little absent-minded, I don't know what she was thinking? The coping replied, "Oh, got it." ”

"It's getting late, you go back to your room and rest."

Shuqian bowed and then exited the prince's study, after Shuqian walked out, the princess began to be suspicious, her expression today was a little abnormal, if the old man said so, her temperament should be refuted or sad tears, why did she act as if it had nothing to do with herself? Act as if nothing happened. So he called the housekeeper Gou Cai and said, "How is the listening?" ”

"Master Qiqi, just now the slave heard that the young lady seems to have said that she is leaving here."

"No, she's going to run away from home and elope here," Taigong said after pondering for a long time.
