Chapter Seventy-Four: My Cousin's Confession
Yang Suxin was shocked, his eyes were instantly covered with a layer of mist, and he retreated crying.
Looking at that appearance, it made Zhao Rongxian hurt a lot.
After Yang Suxin went out, Zhao Rongxian sat back on the bed, and his angry face became much calmer at the moment, and then he carefully lay back on the bed, and said leisurely, "I still say the same thing, if you want me to die, you can leave now." ”
"Zhao Rongxian, are you sick?" I couldn't bear it anymore, and I couldn't help scolding him right away.
Zhao Rongxian didn't care about my abuse at all, he nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "That's right, I'm just sick!" I'm covered in wounds all over my body, and I'm not lightly ill. ”
"You ......" I wanted to turn around and leave, but I was afraid that something would happen to him.
No, Zhao Rongxian is not the kind of person who wants to die and live for the love of his children, he once thought about my life for the sake of the Northern Dynasty, but now he wants to die and live.
What's wrong? Relived a life and lived a love saint?
He doesn't eat or drink? I believe in his wickedness! He just watched me soft-hearted and deliberately threatened me like this!
As soon as I left, he would eat as much as a pig!
"Then you'll die!" I said coldly, immediately turned around and left, and didn't look back at all, I was afraid that as soon as I turned around, Zhao Rongxian would be a demon again.
So not only did I not look back, but I walked faster and faster, and in a short time I was in the yard.
When I went out, I saw Yang Suxin standing outside, crying with red eyes.
When she saw me, she looked up at me and asked me as if reproachful, "The prince loves you so much, why do you treat him like this?" Don't you think you're too ruthless? ”
"I've heard the maid in the house say that you were originally just the daughter of a merchant......"
"How can I have nothing to do with you to the fourth prince! It doesn't matter to you whether I'm the daughter of a merchant or the prime minister! "I was already full of anger, and Yang Suxin wanted to blame me for posing like an infatuated woman, so I was even more angry.
I glanced at her with a sneer, word by word, "You never knew what I was going through, so don't point fingers there." ”
Yang Suxin was stunned and looked at me angrily, but he didn't dare to speak again.
She should indeed be angry, in her opinion, I am a merchant daughter who is fortunate enough to marry a prince, and I can make a prince give up face to me, it is simply a high climb.
Not only do I not know how to cherish it, but I am also so ruthless to Zhao Rongxian, I simply don't know what to do.
But I still say the same thing, others have not experienced the hardships I have experienced, and they are not qualified to judge.
Leaving the Four Princes' Mansion, I immediately looked for a carriage, perhaps I was afraid that something would happen to me, when I got into the carriage, I vaguely saw a few familiar figures, it was a few guards around Zhao Rongxian, in the past, when I went out, they always followed me.
I pretended not to see it, and told the groom, "Big brother, please go faster." ”
When the groom heard my command, he whipped it down, and the horse barked, and at once he galloped.
By about noon, I had already arrived at home.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my mother, and my mother was a little surprised when she saw me coming back, "Why did you come back?" ”
"If you don't come back, will you be able to spend the New Year in the Four Kings' Mansion?" Listening to my mother's meaning, it seems that she still hopes that Zhao Rongxian and I will get back together, and I think it was my brother who told her about the situation in the Four Princes' Mansion.
My mother is the most soft-hearted, in the past, Zhao Rongxian repeatedly ran to our Bai family's restaurant, she relented, what Zhao Rongxian looked strange and pitiful, and said that I like to toss Zhao Rongxian so much. first cheated to death, and now they are separated from him, and they always avoid him.
In short, in her opinion, Zhao Rongxian is pitiful, although she has no choice but to accept a concubine, but in the end, she is still the most accommodating and spoiling me. As for me, although my face is healed now, when I look closely, I can still see a scar, and I have been married again, and my reputation is not very good, so it is not easy to find my in-laws.
Therefore, she still hopes that I can reconcile with Zhao Rongxian.
Hearing me say this, my mother's face suddenly became a little unsightly, she immediately stiffened her face and scolded me coldly, "You took the wrong medicine, so my mother asked you, where did you get so angry?" ”
"Okay mother, don't talk about it, I'm tired, go back to the room to rest first." I was afraid that my mother and my brother would not succeed in chattering, so after a while, I pulled me to talk about my marriage, so I simply turned around and left.
Then my mother scolded me twice, saying that neither I nor my brother made her worry-free, and all the eldest was not married, especially me, who had obviously found a good family business, and had to do it myself.
also said how normal it is for this prince to have a concubine, as long as Zhao Rongxian loves me and loves me, the position of the concubine is still mine, and I can continue to live.
it! My mother really didn't have a backache when she stood and talked, I only saw Zhao Rongxian treating me well, and I only saw Zhao Rongxian pitiful. Why didn't she see my pity?
Hehe, she can't see either. Not many people believe it!
So I said nothing to her, and when I went back to my room, I closed the door, and it was not until evening that I came out of the house.
Because my cousin came, my cousin would come every year on the Shangyuan Festival, and he would come two days earlier.
It's fifteen the day after tomorrow, and it's time for him to come.
Every time my cousin comes, my mother will no longer talk about Zhao Rongxian's things endlessly.
Because I was betrothed to my cousin, my mother couldn't say anything in front of my cousin.
However, my cousin rarely comes over now, last year's scientific examination, he and his brother were both admitted, but he was not as good as his brother, and now he was temporarily sent to Qinzhou to be an official and made a county order, so he rarely came back.
I freshened up and went out the door.
At that time, everyone in the family was in that hall, my father and mother were busy cooking, my grandmother and grandmother were playing with Bai Yuanbao, and my brother and cousin were talking about some political affairs.
I walked over unhurriedly and shouted one by one, "Grandfather and grandmother, father, brother, cousin......"
"I still know that I won't come out all day!" My mother was still angry, but she didn't say it explicitly.
When my brother saw that I was being scolded, he immediately came over to me and asked, "What's wrong?" Why did you make your mother angry as soon as you came back? ”
"Can why? Just like you. ”
"Mother asked you to marry? Who do you want to marry? My brother's eyebrows furrowed, and the expression on his face became very exciting.
On weekdays, he always looks serious, but whenever he talks about me being scolded by my mother because of my marriage, he immediately empathizes with me and gloarts.
He excitedly asked me, "Whose family?" The little son of the Zhu family? Or the big fat man of the Liu family? ”
"Who could it be, the one you forced me to see?" I gave him a blank look, extremely unhappy, if he hadn't told me that Zhao Rongxian was dying, I wouldn't have gone to the Four Princes' Mansion, if I hadn't been to the Four Princes' Mansion for so many days, my mother wouldn't think that Zhao Rongxian and I were still possible, so it was endless.
When my brother saw that I blamed him, he immediately retorted, "How can I be blamed for this?" I just said you should have gone and see him, but I didn't let you stay there for a few days......"
"You ......" I think my brother must have stayed with Zhao Rongxian for too long, and now this ability to make sense is the same.
I can't even talk about him a little.
I thought about it, and immediately reprimanded him again, "Brother, you will have less contact with Zhao Rongxian in the future, what have you learned?" ”
"It's not big or small, and you've learned to teach your brother a lesson, right?"
"Okay, you two brothers and sisters, can you still eat properly?" When my cousin saw my brother arguing, he came over and persuaded him.
My cousin has always been the most shy and the least talkative of all of us, although most of the time he makes people unhappy when he speaks, and he likes to reason with people.
But overall, he is still very shy and gentle.
At this time, the persuasion is also gentle and gentle.
My cousin opened his mouth, and I couldn't say anything.
only glared at my brother and scolded him for being in the same league as Zhao Rongxian.
My brother just spread his hands and didn't say anything more.
My father and mother didn't talk endlessly about my marriage because my cousin was here today, but they always had to find someone to talk to, so they scolded my brother severely, saying that he didn't marry when he was a lot old, and that the old king who was in the timber business next door was a grandfather.
Anyway, no matter how much I scolded, I just stared at my brother and scolded.
So, I had a very comfortable meal.
After dinner, I went for a walk in the garden and watched the moon. In the past, when I was in the Four Princes' Mansion, I was always like this, because Zhao Rongxian didn't like me at that time, and at the beginning, he didn't like to come to my house very much, and I didn't have anything to do, and I didn't have anyone who could talk well, so I always went for a walk in the garden.
Over time, this habit has developed.
The moonlight tonight is so beautiful, it's almost the fifteenth moon, round and big.
"Love to see the moon?" I was lying on the stone table in the pavilion, looking at the moon with my cheeks bent, when suddenly a soft male voice sounded in my ears.
I looked up, and in the dim moonlight, I saw my cousin's sharp chin.
His face, which was more beautiful than a woman, looked even better in the moonlight, and it was even more charming.
The cousin's appearance is like his mother, so he is very beautiful, so he has caused a lot of rotten peach blossoms, not only girls, but also men who have tried to do wrong to him.
But I have no intention of him, and to me my cousin is no different from my brother.
But because of the events of my previous life, I knew that he had thought about me, and I was still a little embarrassed when I was alone with him.
I coughed lightly twice, forced my composure, and said with a smile, "Yes, the moon is so round tonight, it's almost the fifteenth moon." ”
My cousin sat down on the stone bench beside me unhurriedly and smiled slightly, "You have loved to look at the moon since you were a child, and you always clamored to take it off. However, I remember that you used to like to go out on the street after dinner, but now what's going on? I heard my cousin say that you love to be bored in the house now that you have nothing to do. ”
The cousin he was talking about was my brother, and he was a year younger than my cousin, and he was now twenty.
I heard from my mother that my cousin has not married yet.
It's not that I think too highly of myself, but I think that my cousin is so close to me that he still has a mind on me, he is so close to me that I can feel his breath when I am so close.
Although I didn't like him, and although I had always only regarded him as an elder brother in the past, I was reborn in the end, and once I knew what was going on with him, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
I cautiously shifted my body and smiled, "What the hell, I used to be young, and I always liked to go out and make trouble." Now that I'm not getting younger, I'm not as good as before, so I don't like to go out very much. ”
"Poof...... my cousin laughed, his gentle eyes turned into two moons, and he looked at me with a funny face, "Your body is not as good as before?" How old are you? If I'm not mistaken, I'm not going to turn 18 in two or three months. ”
"That...... Haven't you heard a word? Growth is only in a moment......"
"No ......"
I was speechless for a moment, and it was so easy to talk to my cousin that I would die of words.
I looked at him wordlessly, not knowing what to say for a while, so the atmosphere became a little awkward inexplicably.
"Ahem...... That cousin, it's not too early, I'll go back and rest first, you can rest early. ”
I thought about it, got up decisively, and was about to leave.
"Ah Huan, are you avoiding me?" As soon as I lifted my foot, I heard my cousin's voice behind me.
I suddenly became even more embarrassed, in order to hide my embarrassment and weakness, I immediately turned my head again, looked at him with a smile and said, "Cousin, you think too much, what am I hiding from you for?" You're not a jackal, a tiger or a leopard......"
After listening to my words, my cousin obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't debunk it, after all, it would be even more embarrassing to debunk it.
He still had that warm tone, reached out and gently touched my hair, and said softly, "It's okay if I didn't, I thought I offended you somewhere." ”
"There is no such thing as no, no." I immediately waved my hand and subconsciously took two steps back.
Then the cousin took another step forward, unhurriedly took out a small box from his sleeve, and said with a smile, "This is Qinzhou's peony rouge, I saw that this color matches you very well, and the taste is very good, so I brought you a box." ”
To be honest, I didn't think I had anything to accept my cousin's gift before, but now I'm extremely embarrassed, and I don't know whether to accept it or not.
If I don't take it, it looks like I don't want to see him, and if I do, what if he thinks I have something in mind for him?
I thought about it, took the box of rouge, and then pretended not to know his mind at all, and said with a smile, "Thank you, cousin!" Cousin, you're really careful! I also know that I like rouge, if anyone marries you in the future, she must be the happiest woman in the world. ”
"Really?" The cousin touched the back of his head, and in the moonlight, the handsome face was slightly red.
He's ...... Shy, right?
I resisted the embarrassment and immediately said, "Of course! My cousin is so careful, but he plans to get married. I can hear my brother say that the girl of the Xu family has a deep love for you......"
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any ...... about that girl from the Xu family."
"That cousin, do you have a favorite girl, I heard my brother say that you saved a girl in Qinzhou before, and in order to save that girl, you almost lost your life."
I deliberately pulled farther and farther away, and asked him awkwardly, "Are you...... Like that girl? ”
"I ...... I have a crush on the girl, but it's not her ......" My cousin's voice suddenly lowered, and he suddenly looked up at me.
No...... He...... What did he watch me do?
What is he trying to express? I'm so damned, what do I have to do with him? It's time to leave directly! Embarrassing is embarrassing......
"That'...... Cousin, I'm a little sleepy, I'll go back first......" Before my cousin finished speaking, I turned around and left.
"Ah Huan...... The person I have my crush on is you...... It's always been you......" In the cold wind, I heard my cousin's warm and affectionate voice, "If you are willing, I will take you away in the next year, and in the future, we will stay away from Chang'an City, and you will never see the fourth prince again." ”
