Chapter 121: The Second Daughter Meets for the First Time
"Ying'er...... Help me! β
Qianying, the lord of Jiangdu County, hurriedly walked into the Jiangnan Qiao Fat Powder Shop, bringing a faint fragrance.
The store had already been emptied by the guards, and Chen Ying'er stood up a little stunned and stepped forward.
"County Lord, what's wrong with you?"
The county lord of Jiangdu grabbed Chen Ying'er's arm tightly with his slender hand, like a drowning man who had caught a life-saving straw, and said with a panicked expression: "Ying'er, it's not good, the emperor's grandfather has issued an order, ordering the officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison to choose the zodiac auspicious for me, and after the son is decided, I will marry Geng Xuan, the son of the Marquis of Changxing......"
Chen Ying'er was also taken aback: "So fast? β
The county lord of Jiangdu said bitterly: "Geng Xuan went to the northwest with his father Geng Bingwen to pacify the rebellion, and recently said that he has returned to Beijing, and my marriage with Geng Xuan was decided a few years ago, Ying'er, I can't hide this time......"
After that, the county lord's beautiful eyes were already full of tears, and the pear blossoms brought rain.
Chen Ying'er quietly pursed her thin lips and said, "What does the county lord mean...... Don't want to marry that Geng Xuan? β
The county lord of Jiangdu nodded, bit his lower lip and said quietly: "Ying'er, change places, are you willing to marry a strange man who has never met, who is not tall, short, fat and thin, and who does not know his character and surname?" We women were supposed to follow our fathers and husbands, and we couldn't decide the major events of our lives, but I accepted my fate a few years ago, but ...... But ......"
"But what?"
The county lord of Jiangdu had tears on his face, but two blushes floated on his cheeks, which was charming.
"But...... A few days ago, I didn't arrest Xiao Fan...... Is it there? As you said, my reputation has been tarnished, and I can't marry anyone else except Xiao Fan, I ...... How can I marry Geng Xuan calmly with this tainted body? β
Chen Ying'er glanced at her with a smile.
Is your name tainted? I'm afraid this is just one of the statements, most of the county lord saw Xiao Fan's handsome face, outstanding style, and talked about Twenwen, so he was moved by him, right?
Thinking of Xiao Fan, Chen Ying'er felt inexplicably irritable again. After Chen Ying'er heard about it, she felt a mixture of flavors in her heart, both surprised and a little regretful, after all, she should hate Xiao Fan, and she wished he was dead, but somehow, more in her heart, she was happy from the bottom of her heart, and at the same time she felt a little proud, as if Xiao Fan had turned things around, and her face was also bright, after all, she was Chen Yinger's fiancΓ©, although this husband was only "once" husband.
Women's hearts are always complex and changeable, and perhaps even they don't know their true feelings. ββWomen look in the mirror the most every day, but which woman can really see her face clearly when facing the mirror?
The entanglement of love and hate, they crumpled together fiercely in the heart, and then separated them, love or love, hate or hate? Who can tell the difference?
Chen Ying'er felt this way about Xiao Fan, sometimes she wanted to pick up a kitchen knife and rush into Xiao Fan's house, and then hack him to death, sometimes she wanted to hold Xiao Fan's head tightly in her arms, and then told him in a kind of wife tone that had reconciled after a quarrel: "Let's stop making trouble, let's go home." β
Women's love and hate often go back and forth between the lines, why do so many men think that women are unreasonable and unreasonable? Because even the woman herself doesn't know whether she loves or hates you. - Are women hateful? When you think so, maybe women think you're more hateful.
"Ying'er, Ying'er!" The county lord's call seemed to come from a distant place, awakening Chen Ying'er who was in deep thought.
"Ah, Jun...... County Lord, what's wrong? Chen Ying'er came back to her senses, and her pretty face couldn't help but flush a little.
The county lord of Jiangdu said strangely: "I should ask you what's wrong?" What are you in a daze? One moment gritting your teeth, the next moment you are full of peach blossoms, as if you have hysteria, what are you thinking? β
"I ...... I'm not thinking about how to solve your marriage......" Chen Ying'er disguised herself a little flustered.
Hearing this, the county lord of Jiangdu suddenly had a bright face, grabbed Chen Ying'er's slender hand, and begged: "Okay Ying'er, help me think of a way, I'll ...... I can't marry Geng Xuan......"
Chen Ying'er laughed out loud, blinked her eyes playfully, and said with a smile: "If you don't marry Geng Xuan, then who are you going to marry?" β
"I ......" Jiangdu County's subject was stopped, and a touch of red flew on her pretty face, and then she pouted and muttered: "...... Anyway, I don't want to marry Geng Xuan, I can marry anyone......"
Chen Ying'er said leisurely: "You still need to tie the bell to the bell, if you don't want to marry Geng Xuan, you can only find Xiao Fan, after all, ......"
The corners of Chen Ying'er's mouth hooked up a light smile, "After all, the person who stained your reputation and made you unable to marry is Xiao Fan, if he is a man, he must be responsible for you, who are you not looking for him?" β
The county lord of Jiangdu was startled, covered his small mouth with his slender hand, and said in surprise: "Could it be ...... Do you want me to take the initiative to find Xiao Fan? I...... How do I talk to him? β
A complicated light flashed in Chen Ying'er's eyes: "To tell you the truth, it's already this time, if you don't tell him the truth, how long do you want to delay?" The officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison are about to choose a son, do you think you still have time to spend it? β
The county lord of Jiangdu's pretty face became more and more red, she wrung her fingers timidly, and said, "Can ...... But I was a woman who had not yet left the court, so I ran to his house...... And then he was held accountable to me, which ...... It's crazy too! Do I want to live if I pass it out? Again...... Besides, he already has a wife, so why should I go to his house so recklessly? β
Chen Ying'er sighed: "County Lord, face and happiness, you can only choose one, what do you choose?" β
"Happiness!" The county lord of Jiangdu blurted out without thinking.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦ The county lord of Jiangdu left, full of a kind of heroism like going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, a plain and gentle and quiet woman, and now she walked murderously and went straight to Xiao Mansion.
Chen Ying'er leaned lazily on the door frame, and her beautiful eyes were somehow full of crystal tears.
"Miss, forget it. Love is no longer love, and hate is not hate, why bother if you torture yourself like this? Baoqin walked to Chen Ying'er's side and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her.
After a few months of separation, the little girl who hugged the piano was originally immature and delicate, but now she has become a little unhappy, and her uncle doesn't feel how it is in the Jiangpu Chen family, once she leaves, her heart is like missing something, and it is very uncomfortable to be empty.
Chen Ying'er wiped her tears vigorously, unconsciously puffed up her chest, and her voice had become quiet: "No, I must try again." If Xiao Fan has the courage not to marry the county lord for the sake of that little beggar girl, then I, Chen Ying'er, will really obey him, if he can not even want the county lord for the sake of the little beggar girl, then it is reasonable for him not to want me, what reason do I have to hate him? So, I must try it once, otherwise I will not give up in this life! β
The county lord of Jiangdu Luan drove all the way and soon arrived at the gate of the Xiao Mansion.
Mo Yu, the maid next to the waiter, stepped forward and knocked on the door of the Xiao Mansion, and the confused old face of Steward Zhang appeared in front of him.
"The county lord of Jiangdu is visiting Lord Xiao, hurry up and welcome him!" Mo Yu held up her small chest and shouted crisply.
"Huh? My lord ......"
Without waiting for the butler to finish speaking, the county lord of Jiangdu got off the luan drive, and couldn't wait to push away the brocade-clothed guard in front of him, like a dareston who was charging into battle, regardless of the county lord's demeanor, squeezed away Steward Zhang who was blocking the side door, and then pulled his legs and ran towards the inner hall of Xiao Mansion.
"Hey! Who is this man? Who? Are you the county lord or the ringing horse? Is there anyone like you who is so rampage? Steward Zhang was in a hurry, and trotted behind the county lord, shouting as he ran.
The county lord of Jiangdu turned a deaf ear, her little face flushed, and she ran desperately inside, running through the corridor of the wall, through a small peach forest outside the front hall, and the colorful peach petals of the fallen flowers swayed and fluttered under her skirt, bringing a faint dark fragrance.
At this time, she couldn't care about anything, she just wanted to find Xiao Fan as soon as possible, find him before the courage that her daughter's family had finally mustered was gone, and then do the boldest thing in her life ,ββ forced marriage.
She didn't want to get married, just because she was afraid of the unknown future, but she had to get married, just because she was a woman whose fate was at the mercy of others, who in her daughter's family didn't secretly fantasize about the appearance of her future husband? After the fantasy, who hasn't quietly blushed because of this? The county lord of Jiangdu is no exception.
She has only seen Xiao Fan a few times, and she can't talk about how deep her feelings are for him, for her, Xiao Fan is a dream, a dream of girlhood, although the husband in the dream has never driven the colorful auspicious clouds to marry her, but he is at least personable, handsome, talkative, a little more naughty, a little temper, and a little ambiguous with her...... Thinking about it, the person in the county lord's dream secretly matched Xiao Fan's image, and the slightest bit was in the same place, and the score was exactly ...... After dreaming back several times, the person in the lamplight turned out to be him, is this the fate arranged by God?
If in this world, she had to choose to marry a man, she would not hesitate to choose Xiao Fan. Many women are willing to live in dreams for the rest of their lives, and the county lord of Jiangdu is one of them, very stupid, but has no regrets.
I only heard the whirring wind in my ears, and the scenery in front of me kept regressing, the county lord of Jiangdu held his skirt slightly, and walked through the front yard, front hall, and inner hall of Xiao Mansion.
She gasped and pushed open the door of Xiao Fan's bedroom in the inner courtyard with a little savagery.
"Bang!"
The door was pushed open, and she was taken aback by what was inside.
Xiao Fan was not inside, Xiao Thrush was sitting cross-legged on the bed, the bed was full of snow silver ingots of different sizes, Xiao Thrush was holding the silver with one hand, and the other hand was pulling on the side of the bed, counting one ingot after another was extremely intoxicated.
The door was suddenly pushed open, Xiao Thrush was startled, and Xiaocai Fan subconsciously hurriedly wrapped his hands around the pile of silver, and then looked at the door vigilantly.
The county lord of Jiangdu is the eldest daughter of the eldest prince Prince Yiwen, and Xiao Thrush is the youngest daughter of the fourth prince Zhu Di, and this is the first time that the two cousins have met in this life.
The atmosphere of the meeting was awkward.
One stood in the doorway, his eyes wide open, and the other sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the silver tightly in both hands, and the two stared at each other blankly.
There can be many ways to meet in life, but this pair of cousins is undoubtedly the most peculiar.
Liang Jiu ......, "Who are you looking for?" Xiao Thrush raised his little face and asked vigilantly.
"I ...... Find Lord Xiao. The county lord of Jiangdu swallowed his saliva with difficulty.
"Who are you?"
Steward Zhang arrived panting, panting and said, "Madam...... Jiang, the lord of Jiangdu County drove to ......"
After speaking, he glanced at the county lord with a strange face.
The county lord smiled awkwardly: "...... Yes, the county lord has arrived. β
Xiao Thrush looked at the county lord carefully, and his smart eyes showed a look of understanding.
She waved her hand at the butler and said, "Got it, you go down." β
Steward Zhang glanced at the county lord curiously again, and then retreated, leaving only the two county lords in the room looking at each other.
The county lord of Jiangdu looked at the thrush curiously, stared at it for a long time, and couldn't help asking, "...... you You are Lord Xiao's wife? β
Xiao thrush nodded heavily: "Yes!" β
Then she also asked, "You...... Know my father-in-law? β
The county lord of Jiangdu couldn't help but feel weak for a while, his eyes rolled, and he lowered his head and said softly: "Yes." β
The two women faced each other, carefully testing each other's details, quite a bit of a secret war.
Xiao Thrush's big dark eyes blinked a few times, then he flicked his legs, got out of bed, put on his shoes, and slowly walked to the county lord.
The county lord of Jiangdu felt a panic in her heart, somehow, she actually had a sense of nervousness when the concubine faced the eldest woman, although the eldest lady in front of her was actually just a little girl in her teens, she couldn't help but tremble her legs, and almost had the urge to run away.
Xiao Thrush stood still in front of the county lord, and looked at the county lord wantonly. In the end, her eyes fell on the county lord's towering chest, she stared at the county lord's chest for a long time, and then looked at her flat chest, her little face was full of envy, and finally sighed regretfully, her expression looked very depressed.
Stretching out his little hand, Xiao Thrush's slender fingers tapped on the county lord's towering chest, and the flick of the tentacle made Thrush feel frustrated.
"Your breasts are really big...... Xiao Thrush said with envy: "...... Xianggong definitely likes women with big breasts. β
"Yikes!" The county lord was so frightened by the thrush's incivility that he couldn't help but take a step back, his hands tightly covered his chest, and his small mouth exclaimed.
She felt a little uncomfortable with the eccentricity of the eldest woman of the Xiao family.
"What are you looking for my father-in-law?" Xiao Thrush envied the county lord's big breasts, and asked coldly.
"I ...... Something. The county lord gradually adapted to the thrush's jumping surname thinking.
Neither of them seems to be the ones who talk much, and the scene falls silent again.
His eyes wandered, and he saw the silver ingots full of white flowers on the bed, and the county lord had nothing to say: "You...... Busy? β
Thrush nodded, and then her eyes lit up: "Are you free?" β
Xiao Fan is not here, of course the county lord is free.
The thrush said with great interest: "Go, do me a favor......"
"What's the busy?"
"Help me bury the money."
County Lord: "............"
So, two county lords, one big and one small, carried shovels and hoes, and thieves rushed into the backyard and began to dig pits and bury silver.
An hour later, the silver of the white flowers was buried, and the two glamorous county lords also became dirty and dirty beauties.
The thrush let out a long sigh of satisfaction, and her little face was filled with a happy smile. With a roll of his eyes, he saw the dirty face of the county lord, and immediately giggled.
The county lord looked at the dirty thrush and laughed.
Two women who were originally rivals in love inexplicably established a friendship that belonged to women, a very subtle feeling, as if there was an invisible thread between the two that connected them together.
The county lord smiled, and suddenly a strange feeling rose in his heart. - Am I not here to force marriage? Why didn't the main owner who was forced to marry see him, but buried the silver with his wife? Forced marriage forced out such a situation, which link went wrong?
When Xiao Fan returned home and walked into the bedroom in the inner courtyard, he saw such a scene.
The two county lords, one big and one young, were so dirty that they looked at each other as if they had just been dug out of the mound, and they were still laughing heartlessly.
Xiao Fan was taken aback, what was going on? How could the county lord of Jiangdu be in my house? It's still like this.
didn't have time to think about it, Xiao Fan hurriedly straightened his clothes, walked into the door, waved at the county lord, and said softly: "Xiaguan Xiao Fan, see His Royal Highness the county lord......"
Seeing that the long-awaited enemy finally appeared, the beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, soft and quiet, she mustered great courage from nowhere, and before Xiao Fan stood up straight, she rushed to Xiao Fan with an arrow step like a wild leopard that found its prey, grabbed the front of Xiao Fan's official robe as fast as lightning, and then dragged Xiao Fan to the door.
As she walked, she didn't forget to turn back to the thrush and smile quietly: "Madam, it's rude, I'm ...... It's a bit of a problem to find your father-in-law......"
Xiao Fan was grabbed by her placket, and he was suddenly shocked with his hands and feet, and said in his mouth: "What's the situation?" What's the situation? β
The county lord of Jiangdu didn't know where he got the strength, and with a hard pull, Xiao Fan disappeared into the room, and the screams became farther and farther away...... Xiao Thrush stood in the room, watching the two of them go away, sighed softly for a long time, her immature little face slowly flushed with a little sorrow, and her expression swelled with a bit of complexity and sophistication that did not belong to her age.
Let's Xiao family...... Maybe there's one more hostess.
In the peach forest in the front yard of the Shaw Mansion.
"Bang!"
Xiao Fan was pressed hard against a peach tree by the rude county lord.
"You're going to marry me!" The Jiangdu County Lord's face was as red as the sunset, but his tone was as vicious as a robbing bandit.
"Huh?" Xiao Fan looked at the county lord dumbfounded.
The two were silent...... "I made a mistake just now, I want to marry you!" The county lord finally mustered up his momentum for a long time, and suddenly suffocated.
So straightforward?
Xiao Fan stared at the county lord with straight eyes, and when he heard this, he subconsciously twisted his body, blushed and said with a handsome face: "...... Dislike. β
The county lord's pretty face darkened: "............"
