Volume 1: The Husband Chapter 27 Without a Knife (Part II)

"What are you two muttering?"

"Nothing." Lan Zhou caught up with Qing Ruxu in a few steps and asked; "The old lady asked the girl to come over to talk, is it because of Jiang Gongzi's business?"

After Jiang Rin went to high school, as Qing expected, he became a hot son-in-law candidate in Beijing.

Although this thief once became the talk of the town after tea and dinner in Beijing, not many people have seen his true face, except for his acquaintances, that is, everyone in the Qing Mansion. So when he appeared under the list, the kind of temperament and face with an extraordinary appearance like a true immortal suddenly conquered all the men, women and children in the capital, and became the first marriageable man in Beijing.

The person who previously thought that he was born as a thief immediately put down all the mustards, and the cheeky person stepped forward to ask Jiang Rin if he had a marriage match, who else was in the family, and so on.

Qing Ruxu touched his chin: "I don't know if he has any intention of retreating?" ”

Lan Zhou said: "Jiang Gongzi is so good in the exam, the old man and the old lady are afraid that they are more optimistic about him, if you die and don't marry, I am afraid that it will hurt their hearts." ”

"That's why I have to find a way to make Jiang Rin retreat and take the initiative to refuse this family business!"

Lan Zhou and Shizhou glanced at each other and sighed.

When I walked into the Songhe Hall, the sun had already begun to sink, and the dazzling golden streamer penetrated the clouds, plating the bricks and tiles of the Songhe Hall with a layer of reddish light.

Every time I walk in here, Qing Ruxu has a feeling of being separated from the world, no, it should be said that it is indeed a different world.

The little girl opened the curtain for Qing Ruxu, and a gentle voice came: "Jiang Rin is not talented, thanks to Mr. 's guidance, he can be on the list." ”

Qingru Xu Buzi, why is he here?

Just as Bai Zhu came out to change the tea, seeing her eyes with inquiry, she covered her lips and smiled, and explained: "Gongzi Jiang came to thank the master, and the old lady heard about it, so she left him in the house for dinner." ”

Even if Jiang Rin is not the grandson-in-law that the old lady fancies, he is also a person of insight with the title of the gold list, and he is a student of his son, so it is normal to treat each other politely or even closely, so it is normal to stay for dinner.

But Qing Ruxu knew that this was her grandmother's official arrangement for the two of them to "see each other", thinking of this, she was a little uncontrollably nervous, and then secretly scolded herself for being unproductive, and she didn't want to marry him, what are you nervous about! She nodded awkwardly at Bai Zhu, and walked into the room with a few breaths of relief.

In addition to the old lady and Jiang Rin in the house, there are only Qinghong and Song, it seems that it is indeed a blind date specially arranged for her!

The old lady had wide eyebrows, sat on the top, and looked at Qingru Xu with a smile on her face.

Qing Hong exchanged glances with the old mother, and then introduced Qing Ruxu quite formally: "This is my student Jiang Rin, you have also seen it in the study in the front yard before." ”

Qing Ruxu didn't look up, only lowered her eyes and turned around and bowed to Jiang Rin: "Jiang Gongzi is good." ”

Jiang Rin still had the same face that was born with a smile, and when he saw that Qing Ruxu didn't raise his head, the smile was a little more narrow, and he returned the salute: "Miss Qing is polite." ”

Qing Ruxu bent her knees slightly again, ready to walk away, but heard Jiang Rin open her mouth again: "That day, I saw Miss Qing's "Centipede Picture", Xiaosheng liked it very much, and wanted to ask for a painting to go back and watch it every day, I don't know if it is possible?" ”

Qing Ruxu was stunned when she heard this, and looked up at Jiang Rin, her face flushed. It seems that he is not talking about "Centipede Picture", but saying: I saw Miss Qing that day, Xiaosheng was very fond of it, and I want to go back and watch it every day, I don't know if it is possible?

The feeling of fire spread from her cheeks to her heart, and she had a hint of clarity.

How could you think that!

Qing Ruxu was deeply ashamed and disdainful of his thoughts. After a long time of knotting her brain, she realized that the other party had insight into her intentions, and said something cold to her, thinking of this, the embarrassment disappeared, and her speech slipped smoothly: "Since Jiang Gongzi likes it, I will draw a few more pictures for you, just make up the five poisons!" ”

Jiang Rin's eyebrows were slightly raised, and Jun's face was a little inquisitive. "Then thank you, Miss Qing."

He saw that Qing Ruxu was blushing and stunned for a long time, and then he reacted and showed indignation, and felt even more funny in his heart, this girl is really interesting, but I don't know why she doesn't want to marry herself? Didn't she say that she prefers beauty and wants to marry a pretty man? Could it be that in her eyes, she is not good-looking enough? Or maybe there is already a place in the heart?

"Hmph......" Qing Ruxu snorted almost inaudibly, and only gave him a "Don't be scared when the time comes" look, her skills in drawing insects have become more and more proficient recently!

The old lady was happy to see the two of them interacting, and when she looked at her son, they both showed meaningful smiles, obviously satisfied with Jiang Rin's behavior of taking the initiative to talk to her granddaughter. Immediately said: "It's not too early, let's set the meal!" ”

Jiang Rin naturally wanted to go to the front yard with Qing Hong, and it could be seen that Qing Hong had long regarded Jiang Rin as his own bag, no, he was his son-in-law.

Qing Ruxu looked at his father with contempt, and as soon as they left, the nerves in his body immediately relaxed, "This Jiang Rin, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”

Lan Zhou said: "Girl, why do you think that Gongzi Jiang seems to have become active?" ”

"That's weird! He's sarcastic about me! Qing Ruxu immediately denied Lan Zhou's statement, what kind of person is Jiang Rin, how can he spend such a child's love for her. Fang Cai's words and deeds are just expressing to her: If the mountain doesn't come, I won't go to the mountain!

To put it bluntly, you don't like me, and I don't beg you to take a fancy to me!

This is arguing with her!

"Humph! Think you are who you are! All the girls in the world have to revolve around you, I just can't look down on it, I just don't get married! ”

Lan Zhou was inexplicable, why did the girl suddenly lose her temper?

Qing Ruxu puffed up and suddenly asked; "Where's my knife?"

Shizhou: "......"

"Didn't bring it? Hmph, it's not good to do things, go back and chop your fingers! ”

Shizhou: "......" why?

The master and servant muttered a few times, and the old lady looked at it from the side, so she called Qing Ruxu to her side. "Xu Er, what do you have to say?"

Qing Ruxu looked at her grandmother's eager gaze, quickly put away the indignation in her expression, pursed her lips and shook her head.

The old lady sighed and said: "This Jiang Rin, although his background is not very good, but we are not the kind of hypocritical people, and the hero does not ask where he came from......"

Qing Ruxu opened her round eyes, grandmother and father didn't say that at the beginning! But of course, she didn't expose her grandmother, and immediately lowered her eyes and continued to be well-behaved and serious.

The old lady seemed to know what she was thinking, and glanced at her granddaughter with a smile, "It's still the same sentence, Jiang Rin has no parents and elders, you can be the master of the house when you marry, there are no in-laws and sisters-in-law, you don't need to look at anyone's face, everything is up to you." And he has a lot of ideas for himself, and his mind is not spent on those messy things, so you will definitely be relieved if you marry him. ”

When a woman marries, she is most afraid of marrying a man who has soft ears and can't stand the provocation, and is surrounded by warblers and Yanyan who don't know what to do, and finally makes the backyard smoky and miasma, and the family is not at peace. Such a person, no matter what status he is, is not a good match in the eyes of women.

Qing Ruxu has to say that her grandmother is still very accurate in seeing people, she has been married to Jiang Rin for six or seven years, not to mention the concubine's outer room, there are no girls in the connecting room around him, and the people around him are all small guards. Sometimes Qingru Xu calms down and thinks about it, where is this person's mind?

That night, Qing Ruxu dreamed of a fragment of her past life again.

At that time, she was about to die, and her whole body was often immersed in illusory dreams, not wanting to wake up.

Because Jiang Rin in her dreams is always much gentler than in reality, she also likes to smile at her. He smiled and wrote inscriptions on her paintings, smiled and stroked her cheeks, laughed and coaxed her to take medicine, and then pulled her into his arms.

It's a pity that even in her dreams, Qing Ruxu can feel that her life is passing quickly, and she thinks like a weak little animal, madly nostalgic for this world and her master when her fate is about to end.

She desperately drilled into Jiang Rin's arms, crying sullenly.

So Jiang Rin would gently pat her on the head, like coaxing a little girl.

However, these will eventually fall apart, perhaps on a waking morning, with an empty bed around her, a quiet and unoccupied courtyard, all of which show that those warm memories are her own imagination. She knew that Jiang Rin was busy, but she wanted to know, if Jiang Rin was not busy, would she come to see her?

This question made her feel a surge of blood in her chest, and her whole body fell into great pain.

This unquenchable emotion woke her up from her dream.

She turned her head to look out the window, the sky was about to be bright, and the shadows of the trees were reflected on the window lattice, swaying slightly, just like her swaying mind.

………………

A few days after the matter of the fourteenth princess, Mr. Ruan Jianghan Ruan entered the mansion. First, I went to Songhe Hall to meet once, and then said a few words to the hostess Song, and then the two sisters Qing Ruxu and Qing Ruchu personally led them to Lingling Garden.

"Grandmother specially inquired about the habits of Mr. when he was in the palace, everything in Lingling Garden was arranged according to your previous habits, Mr. lived in, if there is anything wrong, just tell Ah Xu, you must not be polite."

"You are my student, how can I be polite to you? If anything, it will be the first to send you. Ruan Jianghan did not speak with a trace of seriousness and old-fashionedness, and the conversation was as close and relaxed as a friend.

"In that case, the students are relieved." Qing Ruxu was also a little surprised, she didn't expect that Mr. Ruan was such an approachable and enlightened person, she could also faintly feel it. Mr. Ruan is very close to him, presumably because she helped the fourteenth princess. She helped the fourteenth princess, in fact, she helped Ruan Meiqin.

It seems that Mr. Ruan knows something about his nephew and the fourteenth princess.

I just don't know, what is her attitude towards this matter?
