Chapter 39: The Little Lady in the West Chamber
Dead.
The small county town of Zhangqiu was closed early, and there were no pedestrians on the street.
In the west wing of the backyard of the county government, there are still a few oil candles, and the daughter of the county commander Zhang Yichen is sitting at the table, holding her cheek in one hand and playing with a comb in her hand. Her eyes were in a trance, but her mind had long since disappeared.
"Little lady, go to bed early, it's not early, it's already two watches, and if you don't sleep, it's going to be three watches in the middle of the night." The close-fitting maid line girl has already lowered her eyelids, and she is sleepy, but the little lady sits there and refuses to sleep.
She rubbed her eyes, yawned, picked up a big burqa from the bed and put it on the little lady, and complained in a low voice, "That Qin Qiong is really stunned, the little lady has given him the things that are close to her, why don't you understand the little lady's mind at all, and the things have been accepted, but there has been no news until now." ”
"Little lady, if you want me to say, this Qin Qiong is not as smart as Na Luo Wulai. You see that as soon as he entered the city, he asked someone to send a message to the little lady to say hello, and also sent a pair of cute white rabbits, which is like that Qin Er, but it is really enough for two. ”
"Don't say Qin Erlanger." Zhang Runniang raised her hand and twisted lightly on the arm of the red line, since that day Changbai Mountain met the blue-faced ghost, during this time Zhang Runniang's mind was full of the figure of the majestic young soldier, he was like a hero of the world, when she was most critical, she suddenly rode a high-headed handsome horse, holding a golden mace, like a god of war fell from the sky, his posture on horseback was so chic, and the vicious thief couldn't even beat a round under his hands.
"Although Luo Wu is clever and sensible, he is still a teenager, how can he be as powerful and chic as Qin Erlang." Zhang Runniang's voice had the taste of a young girl's nostalgia, "I have never seen such a brave Lang Jun, in fact, I have always wanted to thank him in person for saving his life, but I don't want to say goodbye that day and never have a chance to meet again." ”
After a long time, she sighed and said leisurely, "You will never understand, when you meet someone, then your mind is full of his feelings." It's like, there is no man in this world who can replace his place in your heart. ”
"Red line, I think I've been poisoned, I've been poisoned by lovesickness, and I can't save it."
"The poison of lovesickness? I also think that you have lovesickness, and your soul has all been taken away by that Qin Er. I have inquired, this Qin Er's family background is not bad, the Qin family in Licheng is also a century-old family in Qi County, a generation of official eunuchs, although it is now in decline, but Qin Qiong is also a talent, sooner or later he will be able to break out of the Ming Hall, and our Zhang family can be regarded as a good match. ”
"Especially, I heard that Qin Er is twenty-two this year, but he has never been married, and I have never heard of an engagement, how about it, is it just in line with your heart, little lady?"
"Make fun of me again and tear your mouth apart." Although Runniang was about to pull the red line, her eyes were shining, and her eyebrows were full of joy, and she couldn't help it.
"Qin Erlang is indeed a good match, whether it is appearance, ability, or family background, it is all good, but I'm afraid that she may not look down on me." Zhang Runniang has some gains and losses.
Men should get married, women should get married, and Runniang's age has indeed reached the age of marriage. Because she has been smart since she was a child, she has always been favored by Zhang Yichen, so she is very different from other girls, but for her own lifelong events, she insists on choosing a virtuous son-in-law.
There have also been many local nobles and eunuchs who want to come to court, but they can't pass the pass of Runniang. When she chooses a son-in-law, the most important thing is character and ability, and her family background and appearance are secondary.
"Why can't you be worthy, our family Ah Lang is a Qipin county order, born in Jinshi, and the Zhang family is a famous family for generations, little lady, your mother is still a woman from the Liu family in Nanyang, how to match it is more than enough. Besides, you are both beautiful and gentle, if you are taken, it will be the blessing of his Qin family for several lifetimes. ”
Runniang looked at the red line.
"I see that you seem to be in a particularly good mood today, as if you just called to see Luo Wu and came back. What's the matter, you're having a deal with him? ”
"What kind of drama, what do I have to do with him, we are innocent." Red Line hurriedly defended.
"Oh, is it? Then why is the amulet you usually wearing with you missing when you come back? Do you dare to say that you didn't give it to Luo Goro? ”
"Oh, little lady, why do you have to say everything, I hate it. I just thanked Xia Luowu for saving my life, so I gave him something, hoping that he would not encounter any more thieves on the way to Qi County this time. ”
"You, you're still hard-mouthed, if you like it, you like it, and if you like it, it's not a shameful thing. I think Luo Wulang is not bad, although he is still young, but his heart seems to be very old, he is also mature, and he is not bad, but the family conditions are poor. If you like him, I'll connect you, you have followed me since you were a child, I have always regarded you as a sister, and the family has never registered you as a slave in the government, you are still a good citizen, and there is no problem in marrying Luo Wu. ”
When it comes to his own business, Red Line can't help but be a little embarrassed.
Although she was not regarded as a slave in Zhang's mansion, and she was indeed not a slave, she knew in her heart that she was the slave of the Zhang family. As a slave maid, in fact, there is no freedom of marriage, when they reach the age, the head of the family will choose a similar slave to let them match, so that the child will be born, and he will become a family slave again, which is also the appreciation of property.
Or perhaps, a personal maid like her, who is liked by the little lady, will marry with the little lady in the future and marry into the husband's family over there, and maybe she will become the maid of the little lady Langjun and serve Langjun with the little lady.
"Little lady, I think that although Luo Wu is very good to me and has a sweet mouth when he talks to me, it seems that he doesn't like me at all in his heart, and his kindness to me is just a polite appearance on the surface." Red Line Road.
"You little girl, you know what it is to be good in the heart and on the surface."
"It's true, Luo Wu didn't look at me right, but his brother, staring at me with eyes as scary as a wolf, I hate that person. But although Luo Wu spoke to me very gently and politely, and his mouth was sweet, he just didn't have that kind of liking in his eyes, and he definitely didn't look down on me as a girl. "The red line is a bit of a lost road.
Although Qin Qiong is very heroic, Hongxian has never looked forward to anything, she is more realistic, Qin Qiong doesn't think about it, but Luo Wu is also quite good.
But what made her feel disappointed was that Luo Wu was really good, but she could feel that Luo Wu didn't like her.
He didn't hate her, but he didn't like her, it was a gut feeling.
"He dares, why should he look down on our red line, when he comes back from Qi County, I will find him to settle the score."
"Little lady, forget it, the twisted melon is not sweet." She had nothing to say, so she turned around and went to make the bed and fold the quilt for Runniang, "It's almost three watches, little lady, go to sleep." It's okay, the three-legged toad is not easy to find, the two-legged man is not easy to find, he is not the only man in this world, Luo Wu, I will definitely be able to find someone who is better than him in the red line, even if it is not as good as Qin Erlang, who the little lady likes, he will definitely give him Luo Wulang. ”
