Chapter 37: Zhaoxue's Question
In this way, the days are still going by day by day. Since Chen Wenchuan returned to Dingbian, the two sisters have been going to Zhang Fan's house more, and they will come from time to time, which is called "visiting aunt". Of course, the two sisters have this thought, but Chen Zhaoxue is there, and it is true that Zhang Fan is looking for him to tell a story. As for Ru Xue, only he and Zhang Fan feel that the relationship between the two has not been exposed.
Zhao is a person from the past, and she can't see the relationship between the two, but she is very satisfied with Ru Xue, and often thinks of the scene when she became her daughter-in-law, and unconsciously laughs, which makes Zhang Fan very puzzled. But Zhaoxue, the little girl, didn't feel anything at all, but often complained that her sister and Zhang Fan left her and went out alone.
After a few months, the relationship between the two has become very close, and Zhao Xue finally noticed it, and even Ma County Ling knew about it. However, he was also very relieved of Zhang Fan, but he did not stop him.
Since Zhaoxue, the girl, knew about the relationship between Zhang Fan and her sister, she didn't make any face to Zhang Fan, but instead called her "brother-in-law" affectionately, and every time she was ashamed of her sister, she ran away. Although Zhang Fan always said: "Don't talk nonsense. But I didn't know where I was happy for a long time.
These days, Ru Xue, a little girl who has just fallen in love, is so beautiful that she can have a suave and promising sweetheart like Zhang Fan. The whole person is no longer as silent as before, and he has a smile on his face all day long. Every time I meet Zhang Fan, I will fantasize about something; When I met, although I liked it very much, because of the identity of the girl's family, I didn't dare to be bold; After the separation, the whole person seemed melancholy, and even had no energy.
"Sister, are you thinking about Brother Zhang again?" Zhao Xue saw her sister sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard in a daze again, and asked with a smile.
"Hmm." Chen Ruxue seemed to be thinking about something, and when she heard Zhao Xue's question, she naturally answered, but suddenly found that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "No." ”
"Isn't it?" Zhao Xue looked at her sister mischievously and said, "Then I'll go tell Brother Zhang!" ”
"Don't." Ru Xue is now panicked, where is the usual calmness, she can't even see her sister's ridicule, and after a while, she realized, "You little girl, you dare to tease your sister." ”
"Hee-hee, I know what my sister is thinking." Zhao Xue stuck out her little tongue mischievously and said with a hippie smile, "Sister, what do you like about Brother Zhang?" ”
"What do you say?" When it came to Zhang Fan, Chen Ruxue was full of admiration.
Zhao Xue looked at her sister like this, pretended to be helpless and shook her head, thought for a while, and said: "Do you want to talk about Brother Zhang, he is also good-looking, good at reading, good at people, and by the way, he is also very good at telling stories." But sister, Brother Zhang has so many advantages, what do you like? ”
"I don't know, but I don't think that's what attracted me to him." After all, they are sisters, and once they let go, the conversation box will also open, "Remember the first time we met him?" ”
"Of course, it's not that scoundrel who wants to tease us, thanks to Brother Zhang's help." Zhao Xue naturally remembered what it was like to meet Zhang Fan for the first time.
"Actually, at that time, I thought he just wanted to make a good impression in front of our sisters." Ru Xue recalled, "It was only later ......"
"What happened next?" Seeing that her sister stopped, Zhao Xue hurriedly asked.
"Later, when I heard my uncle talk about it, I realized that he was not like that." Ru Xue slowly recalled, "Later, the whole territory of Shaanxi reported the results of the township examination, and he won the first name Xie Yuan, and he was ...... at that time."
"At that time, you had a good impression of Brother Zhang?" Zhao Xue seemed to be very anxious, and always interrupted her sister's words.
Ru Xue didn't show a bored expression, but shook her head and said, "At that time, I thought that he was so young that he was a lifter, and the people who my father knew were not very rigid, and they pretended to be high, and they didn't take women in their eyes." ”
"It's just that those people aren't good." Zhao Xue also felt deeply, "But Brother Zhang is not like this. ”
"He's not." Ru Xue continued, "That day, I heard my father say that there was a scholar in Anhua County who was recruited by the imperial court to go on the expedition, and when I asked, it turned out to be him. At that time, I thought, Brother Zhang, he is indeed different from others. This Anhua did not suffer from the Tartars, he could have refused, but he didn't, at that time I had already looked at him differently, but I didn't have any liking feelings. It wasn't until this Chinese New Year that we went to his house......"
"Big brother's home, what's wrong?" Zhao Xue asked a little strangely.
"Do you remember why we went to his house?" Ru Xue asked.
"Naturally, I remember, we didn't just go to see ......," Zhaoxue said.
"Yes, we want to go and see 'Mother', even if it's someone else's, but when we hear what Dad and Uncle say, we feel ......," Ru Xue said, "but I feel so similar to my own mother." ”
Zhao Xue also surprisingly didn't speak this time, just nodded, but then asked, "But sister, what does this have to do with your eldest brother's affairs now?" ”
"I was thinking." Ru Xue said, "If you have the same mother as us, then he must be very similar to me, maybe such a person can really understand me." ”
"So my sister wanted to try it, but now she's stuck in it?" Zhao Xue began to tease again.
This time, Ru Xue heard her sister's joke, but she didn't rush to deny it, but nodded shyly.
When Chen Zhaoxue saw her sister's appearance, she knew that her sister was really in love with Zhang Fan, so she shook her head helplessly. "But my sister loves me so much, will I be bullied by my eldest brother? No, Brother Zhang is very good, he won't do this. Zhao Xue was thinking crankily in her heart, but she couldn't feel at ease, she decided to go and see Zhang Fan. This girl is also resolute in doing things, just do what she says, and she doesn't care that it's night, and she wants to go out.
"Zhaoxue, it's so late, where are you going?" Ru Xue saw her sister hurriedly walking out, and hurriedly asked.
"Sister, you don't have to worry, I have something to do when I go out, and I'll be back in a while." Zhao Xue replied to her sister and kept going out of the door.
"Zhaoxue, Zhaoxue......" Ru Xue shouted a few times, but there was still a figure of her sister, so she had to stop, looked at the direction of her sister's departure, and sighed helplessly.
Zhao Xue ignored the inquiries of the county janitor, and only said that she had been approved by the Ma County Order. The janitor had no choice but to let her out. Zhao Xue didn't care about the image of the girl at all and ran up the street. The eagerness in her heart to know the answer could slow her down. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians on the road at this time, so her true nature was not exposed to the entire county, otherwise there would have been some rumors the next day.
Zhao Xue came to Zhang Fan's house and knocked on the door. After a while, Zhao's voice came from behind the door: "Who?" ”
"Auntie, it's me, Zhaoxue." Zhao Xue hurriedly replied.
"It's Zhaoxue." Zhao listened to Zhao Xue's words, hurriedly opened the door, and said, "What are you doing so late?" Although it is spring, it is still a little cold at night, so don't freeze. ”
"Aunt Xie, I'm out of the way." Zhao Xue hurriedly said, "Brother Zhang, is he at home?" ”
"Your brother Zhang, he's reading in the study." Zhao didn't know what Zhao Xue was looking for his son, so he said with some doubts, "Do you have anything to do with him?" ”
"I have some things to ask my eldest brother separately." After speaking, he made a confession, and ran towards Zhang Fan's study without waiting for Zhao to speak.
Zhao looked at this little girl in a hurry with some helplessness, knowing that her character was like this, but he didn't blame her.
Zhao Xue came to the door of Zhang Fan's study, saw that the light was still on inside, hesitated for a while, but still made up her mind and knocked on the door.
"Mother, come in, what else are you knocking?" Zhang Fan thought it was Zhao.
Zhao Xue pushed the door in, Zhang Fan was very surprised when he saw someone coming: "Zhao Xue, why are you?" Although the sisters are twins and look very similar, the difference in temperament between Zhao Xue and Ru Xue can be distinguished at a glance, plus the sisters are always dressed in blue and pink, Zhang Fan will not admit his mistake, "You came over so late, is there anything wrong?" ”
"Big brother, I have something to ask you." Zhao Xue said.
"Okay, if Zhao Xue has anything to do, just ask the eldest brother, the eldest brother will know everything and say everything." Zhang Fan said with a smile, and then found that Zhao Xue's expression was surprisingly serious, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked, "Zhao Xue, isn't something wrong?" ”
Zhao Xue shook her head, adjusted her mentality, and then said, "Big brother, how do you feel about your sister?" ”
"Uh......" Zhang Fan didn't expect Zhao Xue to ask him this question, and he was a little overwhelmed, but seeing that Zhao Xue was waiting for him to answer, he said, "I like your sister very much." ”
"How do you like the law?" Zhao Xue asked.
"I love it, I like it so much that I can do anything for her." Zhang Fan also said it without hesitation. These days, the relationship between Zhang Fan and Chen Ruxue has heated up rapidly, and Zhang Fan at this moment is also very thoughtful, and it is not a lie.
"Then, then you must treat your sister well in the future." Seeing Zhang Fan say this, Zhao Xue's serious expression relaxed slightly, and said, "Sister, she looks weak, but her temperament is even more stubborn than me, if something happens, she will definitely drill the horns." ”
Zhang Fan didn't speak, just quietly listened to Zhao Xue.
"Since my mother died, my father has not been at home much." Zhao Xue said, "Although my sister was born at the same time as me, she took care of me like a mother, no matter what kind of sex I make, my sister can tolerate it."
"Big brother, I want you to promise me that you must treat my sister well in the future, otherwise, otherwise, otherwise, otherwise I will not forgive you."
"Zhaoxue, don't worry." Zhang Fan listened to Zhao Xue's words, stood up, and said solemnly, "I, Zhang Fan, will definitely treat Chen Ruxue well in the future, if there is something missing, there will be thunder and thunder that day, and I will not die well." ”
Zhao Xue watched Zhang Fan make an oath, and did not stop him, but was very happy, whether it was because her sister had a good home, or something else. It's just that Zhang Fan suddenly felt that Zhao Xue in front of him had some lost emotions on his face after he said such an oath. "Maybe I'm overthinking." Zhang Fan thought in his heart.
Zhao Xue got the answer she wanted, and the whole person changed back to that lively and lovely form, which really made Zhang Fan very helpless.
"I said, big brother, you can't shoot faster!" Zhaoxue said mischievously, "My sister is so introverted, she actually let you succeed!" ”
"......" Zhang Fan was very helpless about the little girl's words, and didn't know what to say. At this time, Zhao also brought tea to relieve Zhang Fan's embarrassment.
"I said big brother." After the Zhao family left, Zhao Xue asked again, "When are you going to ask my father for a kiss?" ”
"Ahem, cough ......" Zhang Fan, who was drinking tea, was suddenly choked by this sentence, and coughed for a long time and couldn't speak.
"What's all the fuss about." Zhao Xue was dismissive of Zhang Fan's reaction, "Could it be that you want to regret what you just said?" ”
"Ahem...... No, it's just ......" Zhang Fan finally regained his strength and said, "It's too fast, and uncle." ”
"What's the problem with whether it's fast or not?" Zhao Xue puffed up her face, looked at Zhang Fan angrily and said, "The two are happy, so they naturally want to pursue it." Not to mention ......"
"What's more?" Zhang Fan asked.
"Besides, my dad seems to be very happy with you." Zhao Xue said, "In the past few months, my father has come to see me and my sister several times, and my sister has asked my father sideways, and my father is also very satisfied, but I don't know the relationship between you and my sister yet." ”
"Then ......" Zhang Fan was still a little hesitant.
"What's that, don't you like my sister very much?" Zhao Xue was very dissatisfied with Zhang Fan's indecision.
"No, Zhaoxue misunderstood." Zhang Fan said, "It's just that I may have to go to the capital this year, I'm afraid it ......."
"I've heard about this, can you settle it first?" Zhao Xue said, "I decided to marry first, and I didn't get in the way." ”
Zhang Fan was defeated by this little girl, so he had to vaguely agree, although this made Zhao Xue very dissatisfied, but he had to do this.
It was already late, and Zhang Fan was about to send Zhaoxue back, but when he opened the door, he saw a subordinate of the Ma County Ling family who was about to knock on his door.
"Miss, Zhang Gongzi, my master asked me to come to Zhang Gongzi." The person who came said.
"Miss Chen is about to go back, please rest assured." Zhang Fan only said that the person came for Zhaoxue, and said so.
"This is one thing, and there is another thing to tell Zhang Gongzi." The man said.
"What's the matter with me?" Zhang Fan asked, he didn't know what was going on with Ma Xianling looking for him so late.
"I heard that a letter came from Beijing, asking Zhang Gongzi to come to the house to discuss."
When Zhang Fan heard this, he knew that it was Zhang Juzheng's letter. He looked at Zhao Xue, said to his mother, and followed the man to the county government with Zhao Xue.
