Chapter 071: Old Sachets
"What is this?" Before Chi Tang could speak clearly, he was stunned by the object Xiao Zhuo took out.
This is a half-old sachet, it can be seen that the embroidery is good, although the begonia petals on the sachet are old, they are still delicate and delicate.
Xiao Zhuo held the sachet affectionately, and said softly: "Sister Chi, the sachet you gave me, I have kept it well all these years, I am afraid that you will not believe it, so I specially went back to Jinling and brought it over to show you!" β
Chi Tang was silent for a moment and sighed, "Isn't that day's event very simple? You said that in order not to arouse the suspicion of the assassins, and I didn't blame you for it, and I didn't take those words to heart, why did you hold on to it? β
Xiao Zhuo looked at her calm eyebrows at this time, but remembered the way she cried that day.
It seemed that countless sorrows arose from his words, and he was particularly uncomfortable to listen to.
This little girl obviously likes him, so she will cry because of the truth, and his sentence "A gentleman promises a thousand gold" clearly admits that what he said before is not sincere, so that this little girl who loves him sadly.
She looked calm now, saying "I didn't take it to heart", and she must have endured the sourness in her heart.
Xiao Zhuo couldn't help showing pity on his face, and said more and more gently: "Sister Chi, although the situation was a little special that day, what I said was from the bottom of my heart, you and Miss Lu Qi appeared together, and I went to you without thinking about it, and then I reflected on it myself, and realized that I was willing to say those words to you." β
"Oh?" Chi Tang was unmoved, "Didn't you choose me because you could justifiably drag me to my father?" β
Xiao Zhuo's face stiffened, and the tenderness he was ready was choked back, thinking to himself, this little girl is quite difficult to coax.
At the time, he did think about it out of this way, but he thought about it a lot afterwards.
First of all, the little girl Chi loved him so much, and he couldn't bear to see her sad;
Moreover, he has also reached the age when he should be married, and the daughter of Chi Changting is suitable for employment as a wife of the Xiao family in all aspects;
In the end, he thought about it carefully, Miss Chi was innocent and cute, he also liked it, and he didn't have any rejection in his heart when he married her.
The problem now is that Miss Chi remembers the previous incident and doesn't trust him very much.
Coaxing and coaxing is not good, how to convince her?
Before Xiao Zhuo could think of a good explanation, Miss Chi spoke again: "I really didn't pay attention to the incident in the back mountain, I got angry later because you want to continue to coax me-"
Her expression was suddenly sentimental.
"If I believed you in the back mountain, no one would tell me the truth afterwards, and you, for the sake of the gentleman Yinuo, continued to coax me, and even begged to marry me; I believe it is true, and I marry you happily, but you don't really like me after all, and I will always find this day and night, and I will always find this, and paper can't hold the fire, one day, I will know the truth of the beginning, and when the time comes, what should I do? β
She spoke softly, looking into his eyes as if she were ready to cry.
"I was already very fond of you at that time, and suddenly one day I learned the truth, knowing that you didn't like me from the beginning and just married me to be responsible, what should I do? I'm already married to you, and I don't even have a chance to repent and give up, so what am I going to do in this life? β
When she said the last three words, a tear suddenly fell, and she lowered her head and hurriedly wiped it away, as if she felt embarrassed, and did not look up at him again.
Xiao Zhuo listened to word by word, and then looked at her tearful appearance, as if a hand was holding her throat, and she was almost out of breath.
"Sister Chi......" He called out hoarsely, and suddenly felt that it was inappropriate, so he changed his words, "Miss Chi, it's Xiao who is abrupt-" paused, "I don't want to coax you, I just don't want you to be sad......"
It's just that I didn't expect such a small person to be exquisitely clear in his heart and think so far-reaching.
She must have loved him miserably to be so sensitive, right?
"I'm not sad!" Chi Tang's voice was slightly choked, and his tone sounded a little pretended to be light, "I didn't take what you said in the back mountain seriously, and I also know what you said today, I'm just a little angry." β
Xiao Zhuo said softly: "Miss Chi, I know it's wrong, I don't want you to be sad, and I don't want you to be angry, can you give me a chance to make up for my mistakes?" β
Chi Tang has always been a soft-hearted person, seeing him so obedient, there was no trace of complaint in his heart, wiped away his tears and smiled: "That incident is about business, we should all help my father keep it secret, so, just treat it as if nothing happened, what does the fifth uncle think?" With that, she winked at him playfully.
Xiao Zhuo also smiled, and said in a conniving tone: "Okay." β
The fifth uncle is the fifth uncle, maybe this makes the little girl feel safer, and he will slowly find an opportunity to make up for her in the future.
After making up his mind, Xiao Zhuo's heart was also relieved, he pinched the sachet in his hand, and said with a smile: "The sachet you gave meββ"
"Pool girl!" A familiar call was made outside the pavilion.
Chi Tang turned his head to look.
The brothers and sisters of the Lu family, Zhu Xian and the maids were still waiting outside the pavilion, and there was one more person at this time.
"My master is invited!" Tsing Yi said.
"Sister Tsing Yi, wait a minuteβ" Chi Tang replied and turned back to Xiao Zhuo.
Xiao Zhuo said softly: "Miss Chi, please." β
Chi Tang said "um", glanced at the sachet in his hand when he looked up, and muttered with disgust: "This is not my sachet, if there is a tang in the name, it must be embroidered on the sachet?" β
I don't know where this old sachet came out, so I came to her to confess.
If she can believe it, there will be ghosts!
β¦β¦
Chi Tang followed Tsing Yi into Fangchen Courtyard, Lu Zijin was sitting in the hall, holding a tea cup in one hand, not drinking, his eyes were lowered, he didn't know what he was thinking, and his expression was more serious than usual.
Chi Tang glanced at the table, a little surprised.
Don't even have a snack?
Just as he raised his feet and crossed the threshold, he spoke coldly: "Lu San and Lu Qi are pulling you to see Xiao Wu?" β
Chi Tang was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, I promised it myself." β
"You promised yourself?" Li Yan's eyebrows frowned, "Sure enough, Xiao Wu made an appointment to see you?" What is he going to say to you alone? β
When he first heard Miss Chi admit that he liked Su Jin, he still had the heart to see that Chi Changting was anxious, but this time when he heard her and Xiao Wu's private dealings, he finally understood Chi Changting's mood.
However, the little girl Chi just glanced at him faintly, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Hasn't this kid always been very well-behaved? Why was Xiao Wu stubborn when asked?
Li Yan was slightly annoyed in his heart, put the teacup on the table, and said with a cold face: "Xiao Wuyi has always boasted of being romantic, you are not too young, you must not be bewitched by his clever words, it is still inappropriate to send your companions to talk to him alone like this today." β
Xiao Wu is really a scourge! After only talking for a while, the little girl was taken away!
