Chapter 222: Cheng Dede's Death
He looked at it for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "Jiaojiao must have come to see my jokes." ”
Lotus Ye wrinkled her nose, and secretly said that this guy is quite self-aware, and of course her young lady can't come to rejoice for him.
"I haven't seen him for a few days, and Brother Cheng has lost a lot of weight."
"'There are beautiful women, and they will never forget it. I don't see it for a day, and I think like crazy. Xu missed it so much that he was getting thinner and thinner. ”
Cheng German spoke softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the peace here.
Nan Baoyi played with a small handkerchief.
The person who is about to die is embarrassed to tease her.
If it had been in her previous life, she would have jumped for joy when she heard this poem, but now that she heard it, she felt very ridiculous.
She said with concern: "The Cheng family was defeated, I don't know Brother Cheng's funeral expenses, but can you have it?" ”
Cheng De's face was slightly stiff.
This girl is too straightforward......
He coughed while holding his handkerchief.
Soon, blood stained the handkerchief red.
He sat up with support, and his tone was self-deprecating:
"In the past, when I was married to Jiaojiao, I was very dissatisfied with you. I thought that I was the pride of the sky, the son of the Taishou Mansion, how could I marry a merchant girl with no ink? Later, I traveled to Shengjing City to study, and I often received letters from you. Your ugly handwriting and vulgar language disgust me all the more.
"That's why when I came back from Shengjing City, I was interested in the well-informed Nan Yan. I thought that my wife must be able to add fragrance to my red sleeves and talk to me about poetry.
"However, after I divorced you, I realized that you had become so good. It's not the kind of good that has poetry and books in the belly, but the good that is exceptionally innocent and squeamish. not only has the intelligence and rationality of everyone's ladies, but also retains the innocence of the little girl. ”
He fixed his eyes on Nan Baoyi, "I, I like this kind of Jiaojiao very much." ”
Nan Baoyi was always silent.
Even, there was a sarcastic smile on the corner of his lips.
Cheng De didn't know that her intelligence and reason were all forced out by him and Nan Yan.
Are you embarrassed to praise her?
A clear voice appeared in her ears:
- Ben Hou likes to be delicate, it doesn't matter whether you are ugly or beautiful, old or young.
If you are the messenger of blessings appointed by God, then Benhou is your believer. If you are spurned by millions of people, Benhou is your lackey.
- Ben Hou likes Jiaojiao, no matter what, he likes it, and he likes it regardless of right and wrong.
Nan Baoyi remembered that when she returned from rebirth, she was still just a good-for-nothing straw bale, and Lord Quanchen was already very willing to be kind to her.
Instead of waiting for her to become good and good, and then be nice to her.
Therefore, what Cheng De likes is only the shining points on her, not her as a person.
When she loses these shining points in the future, Cheng German will also leave her without hesitation.
She said: "Brother Cheng's love is too cheap. Compared with your hypocritical and short-lived affection, I am more pleased with his long-lasting company. ”
He ...... Is it Xiao Yi? ”
"Yes. He accompanied me up from the depths of the mud, step by step, to the top of the clouds. I have nothing to repay, but I have no hesitation, overcome obstacles, and step out a road of glory for him. ”
The dormitory was silent for a long time.
After a cup of tea, Cheng De suddenly stroked his palms and laughed.
Smiling and laughing, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed violently again.
Blood oozed from between his fingers.
He raised his haggard and weak eyes, "I thought I was from a powerful family, and I was a rare noble son in Shu County. I thought I was very knowledgeable, and I was second to none in the world. But it wasn't until today that I realized that my family background could not be my pride. It turns out that there are so many books I have read, and none of them have taught me how to love someone. Miss Nan, the grievances and entanglements in the past are finally my trust. ”
Nan Baoyi was surprised.
Cheng German: This is ......
People are dying, and their words are good?
Cheng De's face was like gold paper, and he pulled out a wooden box from under the pillow.
He handed the wooden box to Nan Baoyi, "I'm sorry you have too many places, there is nothing to give you." These silver tickets are the private money I have accumulated over the years, although I know that the Nan family is not short of money, but I still ask you to accept it. ”
Nan Baoyi took it.
Cheng German coughed violently again.
He stared at Nan Baoyi and said sincerely, "Can Jiaojiao forgive me?" ”
Nan Baoyi sat on the embroidery pier and never answered.
After a long, long time, she got up and left.
Cheng De stared at her back in a daze, and his eyes revealed a thick sense of loneliness and despair.
There was a blackness in front of him.
He collapsed under the covers, exhausted.
Nan Baoyi took the lotus leaves, and when he stepped out of the verandah, he heard the heart-rending cries of Huang and Cheng Zai from behind.
Cheng De went to the west of the ......
Wei Jiannan drove the carriage through the bustling Furong Street.
Lotus Ye looked at Nan Baoyi.
Since she boarded the carriage, she has been nestled on the couch, just looking at the wooden box and not speaking.
She said tentatively, "Miss? ”
Nan Baoyi was silent.
She opened the wooden box.
Inside was a thick pile of silver tickets, which added up to 100,000 taels.
She pulled out one and gently twisted the edge of the silver ticket.
Lotus Ye poured a cup of tea for her, and said softly: "Cheng Gongzi is so generous, it can be regarded as letting go." is so free and easy, but it makes the slave and maid look at him. ”
Nan Baoyi was always silent.
In my mind, I saw the images of my past life.
In her previous life, she didn't know what it meant to like.
I only feel that Cheng De has a good background, good looks, and good learning, so he is very satisfied with this family business, and he is determined to be a good wife.
But what did Cheng German do to her?
On the wedding night, he left her alone in the new house and ran out to have a private meeting with Nan Yanyue.
Regardless of her face, she and Nan Yan went in and out to participate in various banquets in Jinguancheng.
despised her, disliked her, calculated her mother's wealth, and was indifferent after Nan Yan ruined her appearance.
even, connived at Cheng Taishou and dedicated her to the old emperor Chongxi......
She often thought that even if he didn't love her, he was not qualified to abuse her if he took so much gold and silver from her mother's family......
Nan Baoyi lifted the curtain.
Wei Jiannan, who was driving, was quite surprised, "Miss, what are you going to do?" ”
Nan Baoyi sat down on the small pestle beside him.
She pulled out a wad of silver tickets from the wooden box and threw them into the air.
Wei Jiannan and Lotus Ye were stunned.
Countless silver tickets fell all the way down the street like snowflakes, like a memorial to time.
Hundreds of people scrambled along the streets, all smiling.
The 100,000 taels of silver tickets were all thrown away, and even the carved wooden box was thrown out.
The autumn sky is clear, the long wind is crossing, and the wine flag is displayed.
Scattered wild chrysanthemums bloom on street corners.
Nan Baoyi raised her head.
A few wisps of green silk brushed her cheeks, showing that her little face was delicate and white, and her danfeng eyes were moist and cool, like a bottomless pool of mountain water.
- Can Jiaojiao forgive me?
Cheng De's longing voice is close to his ears.
Nan Baoyi's face was expressionless, and he paused word by word: "Never." ”
