Chapter 19 - Assassinated
Under the sunset, Zhao Fan held Joey's little hand, humming a little song, while thinking about the wonderful performance of the man in white just now, and the mood was extremely happy.
Joey was holding two jewelry boxes and some rouge gouache, smiling sweetly, peeking at Zhao Fan from time to time, with a lot of brilliance in his eyes.
Just now, in order to thank himself for helping him sell things at a good price, the owner of the silver building finally sold a pair of earrings of similar style to himself, half sold and half gifted, which saved a lot of money...
Thinking of the man in white's blushing face, but he didn't dare to raise the price, Zhao Fan couldn't help but feel funny.
He's not a troublemaker, but he's not minded teaching him a deep lesson.
……
"Yi'er, I have something I want to communicate with you." As soon as he got home, he didn't put down his things, Zhao Fan pulled Joey into the inner room and asked with a little weakness.
Joey glanced at the mysterious Zhao Fan strangely, and asked with some curiosity, "What's the matter, Brother Fan, you can tell me something directly." ”
"Ahem, that's the ......" Zhao Fan coughed dryly twice and began to talk about what Wei Ruqian told him today.
After a long time, Joey, who listened to the whole thing, said with emotion, "I didn't expect Sister Wei to be so pitiful."
"Brother Fan, you must drive away all those bad people and help your sister get her things back."
When Zhao Fan heard Joey's statement, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with some sneering, "She really needs my help now." ”
"What's the matter? If we can help, we must help! Joey waved his little fist and said with a firm expression, "You must protect Sister Wei and don't let those bad guys succeed!" ”
"That's the case, in order to prevent others from beating her idea, being forced to marry, and completely losing control of the family, she wants us to do us a favor..."Zhao Fan secretly raised his head after speaking, and glanced at Joey.
"Well, what's the rush? Brother Fan, how do you talk today, and if you have anything, just say it in time! Joey glared at Zhao Fan dissatisfied, and said with some dissatisfaction, "You know what? Curiosity can really kill cats. ”
"She hopes I can marry her..."Zhao Fan stiffened his neck, and finally said the key point of the matter......
Hearing this, Joey was stunned for a moment, then put away the smile on his face, and asked distractedly, "Brother Fan, is Yi'er doing something bad?" ”
"No, no, really no, this is just what Sister Wei said to me, in my heart, no one is more important than Yi'er, Yi'er is the woman I want to marry the most!" Seeing that Joey's eyes were red, and tears were already rolling in his eyes, Zhao Fan immediately panicked, and said a little overwhelmed.
"Poof, fool." Joey was originally quite panicked, but when he saw Zhao Fan's stupid appearance, he couldn't help but sneer, and asked a little sadly, "Then, do you want to marry Sister Wei?" ”
"I don't want to, I really don't want to." Zhao Fan hurriedly shook his head, his head shaking like a rattle.
If he said that he was not impressed by Wei Ruqian at all, it was false, but Zhao Fan really didn't have too many ideas, after all, he came from later generations, and some of his thoughts would not change for a while, for Wei Ruqian, he was more appreciative than anything else.
"That..."Joey glanced at Zhao Fan with some suspicion, and then smiled slyly, "Is it me who is beautiful, or is Sister Wei more beautiful?" ”
Zhao Fan looked at Qiao Yi with a bitter face and said, "Naturally, our family Yi'er is more beautiful, haven't you heard the phrase Xi Shi in the eyes of your lover?" ”
"Hmph, perfunctory, don't be embarrassed, count you through." Hearing Zhao Fan's somewhat insincere answer, although Joey was not too satisfied, he still smiled sweetly and did not dwell on this question anymore.
"That's nature, that's nature..."Zhao Fan wiped the cold sweat on his head and said with a wry smile.
"Okay, Brother Fan, I'm not a person who doesn't know righteousness, in that case, you should help Sister Wei with this." Joey put away his smile and said to Zhao Fan with a serious face, "Since this is the case, you will marry Sister Wei, but you have to promise me one thing." ”
Zhao Fan was stunned when he heard this, did Joey agree?
"Yi'er, you say, as long as it is done, I will never refuse."
"If you marry Sister Wei, you must be good to Sister Wei, and you must not abandon it from the beginning to the end and mess up the reputation of others." Joey bit her lip and said with some grievances.
"Yi'er... You..."Zhao Fan looked at Joey's determined eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her, isn't it too cruel to discuss this with a girl?
"Yi'er, in fact, you can disagree, if you don't agree, I definitely don't think I have any opinions." Zhao Fan touched Joey's hair lovingly, and said with some guilt, "Forget it, I believe there must be a better way." ”
"Brother Fan, don't say foolish things, if it weren't for the form, Sister Wei wouldn't have brought it up, after all, this kind of thing requires courage for a girl's family." Qiao Yi glanced at Zhao Fan with some emotion, and then said, "And if you marry Sister Wei, it will also be good for Brother Fan, not only can your ability be fully displayed, but in this troubled world, we also have more power for self-preservation, isn't it?" ”
"Brother Fan also mentioned two days ago, now even the emperor has been driven out of Chang'an, and now the world is in chaos, and the various festivals make adults fight each other, if you don't have enough strength, how can you survive in the troubled times?"
Zhao Fan was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Joey to think so far, he had to admit that Joey's analysis was still very reasonable, in the words of later generations, marrying Wei Ruqian, he could at least struggle for twenty years less, but when he heard this, how could he always feel that he had some meaning of eating soft rice...
"Brother Fan doesn't have to think about it, Yi'er doesn't believe in your ability, but if you just rely on your own strength, it is difficult to make a difference in this world, and the reason why Sister Wei wants to support you is also because she likes your ability, and I believe that she can protect her and protect the Wei family, which is a choice in itself, so Brother Fan, you don't have to think about it." Qiao Yi saw that Zhao Fan didn't speak, with a hesitant face, and immediately continued to analyze, "Actually, Sister Wei will choose Brother Fan, I don't feel jealous or can't think about it, on the contrary, Yi'er feels very happy, at least it proves that Yi'er didn't choose the wrong person, and even Sister Wei has taken a fancy to you, which proves that you are very capable, and it proves that Yi'er's vision is very correct." ”
Looking at Joey, who was looking serious, was talking about analyzing the situation for him, Zhao Fan suddenly felt a sense of self-inferiority, he really underestimated the wisdom of the ancients, and he didn't expect that Joey, who accompanied him every day, was such a smart person.
"Yi'er, I see, I won't let you down." Zhao Fan straightened his body and took Joey into his arms.
