Chapter Seventy-One: The Next Set

Zhao Ling looked at Zhang Ruoyu, who was caught in self-doubt, and said helplessly: "You are fine, you don't need self-doubt." ”

"The wildflowers on the roadside are all picked, not to mention that your flower still smells of wine."

And I, too, want to pick.

Zhao Ling was silent, considering Zhang Ruoyu's acceptance, he still swallowed his words silently. With Chai Jiangyun's lesson this time, he also understood that for an elm head like Zhang Ruoyu, he can't be in a hurry, he must figure it out slowly, otherwise once he is discovered, he will fall into a situation where Chai Jiangyun can't advance or retreat, which is very ugly.

When Zhang Ruoyu heard this, he said twice, tilted his head and touched his head, and laughed twice, he didn't expect that he had a lot of suitors in modern times, and there were many people who liked him here.

"It's not early, you better go back with him early, the little guy and the coachman also know the road, with the identities of the two of you, he shouldn't dare to do anything to you."

When it was time to separate, Zhao Ling was by no means ambiguous when he spoke.

God knows how much he doesn't want to be separated from Zhang Ruoyu, but the current situation doesn't allow him to stay here for another half a quarter of an hour. But only when Zhang Ruoyu is gone and returns to Shangyang County safely, can he go back with peace of mind.

"Ah, yes, it's not too early, you have to get down to business." Zhang Ruoyu glanced at the sky, it was already evening. She really should go back, otherwise Liu Xiu wouldn't know how to worry.

"That's right,"

"That's right."

The two of them took a few steps back separately, and then turned their heads at the same time and said.

"You say it first," Zhao Ling had already put on the mask when he came, and the eyes under the mask were full of restrained expressions, and now if he looked at it for a second longer, he could hide it in his heart and commemorate it.

Zhang Ruoyu didn't expect the tacit understanding between the two to last until now It was so interesting, she thought about it and said: "By the way, it's going to be the wine tasting festival in Shangyang County after a while, isn't it that I just got fresh ingredients today, if you are free then, remember to come back, I will invite you to drink." ”

Zhang Ruoyu smiled heartily, and that posture was very similar to when the two first met, their faces were full of vitality and hope for the future, as if they would be able to find hope as long as they followed her.

"Okay." Zhao Ling finally nodded under Zhang Ruoyu's gaze, if he had the opportunity, he also wanted to take Zhang Ruoyu to the capital to see where he grew up.

"Then, goodbye." Zhang Ruoyu didn't know why, after Zhao Ling agreed to his invitation, he was as happy as a fireworks.

She narrowed her eyes with a smile, then jumped back to the carriage, urged the coachman, and the two carriages began to move, and finally galloped away in the direction of returning to Shangyang County.

It was time for the sun to set, and the mountains were green as far as the eye could see, and not far away was the sunset that gradually changed color, from orange to red, and finally to deep red.

Watching the carriage rush to the end of the sunset, Zhao Ling whistled, summoned his mount, turned over and jumped, and sat directly on the horse's back.

"Phew", it was time for him to go back to a place where there was only a faint hope.

"Ayu, if you have the opportunity, I hope to invite you to my house as a guest."

In the swift wind, a low murmur dispersed and fell into the jungle.

And Zhang Ruoyu, who was in the carriage, also fell asleep because of the fatigue of the day, and he no longer knew what was going on in the outside world.

She smashed her mouth in her sleep, subconsciously wiped her saliva, and shouted: "Zhao Ling, I still want to eat that." ”

She hasn't eaten enough vegetarian dumplings today, but it's a pity that the person who can feed her has galloped away.

The sunset gradually dispersed, and the gears of fate also inadvertently turned, and the two people who thought they would stay where they were going to stay in place gradually took place in the staggering of gears, and finally completed the encounter of that line, but what the final outcome would be, it was never possible to guess.

The carriage first sent Zhang Ruoyu back to his residence, and then sent Chai Jiangyun back to the county mansion, and Chai Jiangyun also woke up faintly on the way back, but when he thought of the things he did on the mountain today, he felt that he had no face to meet Zhang Ruoyu, so he directly pretended that he was still in a coma and returned to the county mansion.

The staff officer of the county order is still the same one, and the last county magistrate is gone, but he is still here. Seeing that this county master was very shrewd and difficult to control, Mr. Staff had been observing Chai Jiangyun's whereabouts for a long time, trying to find out Chai Jiangyun's weaknesses.

This time, he finally found it.

Seeing Chai Jiangyun return to the county office with a depressed face, Mr. Staff did not greet him twice, but sat there, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and slowly tasted it. Only when Chai Jiangyun was about to miss himself, he sighed: "There is no reason for people to wait, and people who are destined to be tired, it's not that they don't match, it's just that the sky is not beautiful." ”

These words just poked Chai Jiangyun's sensitive heart, and when he was on the road, he was thinking about the difference between himself and Zhao Ling. If he had Zhao Ling's life experience, he would have the courage to open his heart to Zhang Ruoyu, instead of being like now, he could only nest in one or two other carriages, across the carriage, watching Zhang Ruoyu leave.

"What do you mean, sir?" Chai Jiangyun originally walked back to his room, but now when he heard Mr. Staff's words, his face changed, and he walked directly in front of Mr. Staff, staring at Mr. Staff with a pair of eyes.

As the saying goes, you can tell by looking at a person's eyes that he has changed recently.

Mr. Staff still remembers the first time he met Chai Jiangyun, this "young and ambitious" champion was full of light, and he patted his chest and said that he would definitely be able to bring Shangyang County well!

Looking at it now, it is still the same pair of eyes, Chai Jiangyun's eyes are already full of anger at the moment, and the surface of the eyeballs that are red and bloodshot, with Chai Jiangyun's expression, looks like a seepage behind people.

"It's not interesting, I just remembered a previous script, and I thought it was a little interesting, so I sighed." Mr. Staff explained that the old god was there, he put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at Chai Jiangyun, that glance made Chai Jiangyun inexplicably weak.

"What's the matter, the county master was right?"

Chai Jiangyun's body shook up, and he took two steps back again and again, and he helped the shelter next to him before stopping.

He explained in a panic: "No, no, it's just curiosity." As everyone knows, his explanation is even more covered, even a passer-by who doesn't know anything will not believe it, let alone a staff officer who has been observing him for a long time.

"Hey," Mr. Staff said, clutching his head and sighing helplessly.

Chai Jiangyun was interrupted, originally still in his own embarrassment, but now as soon as he was interrupted by Mr. Staff, he immediately raised his head: "Sir, are you okay?" ”

Mr. Staff put his hand on his forehead, looking helpless and remorseful, and after Chai Jiangyun asked several times, he slowly spoke, which can be regarded as telling a story about himself and his beloved.

"I still remember when I was a teenager, I fell in love with someone, but I was confused and scared because of the gap between my identity and her, as well as the obstacles of the outside world. Later, she also lost her patience to wait and married another wife. ”

"I still remember when I met on the street the other day, she held two children in her hands and smiled at me. When he passed by, he said to me, if only you had been braver back then. ”

"I've been thinking for the past few days that it's because I'm not brave enough to express my heart and do what I want to do to make things the way they are."

He buried his head in his arm and made a painful appearance, and in order to increase his credibility, he also put some chili noodles in his palm in advance, and now the chili noodles seeped into his eyes, and the whole eye turned red from the irritation, and tears kept flowing down.

Chai Jiangyun has completely believed in Mr. Staff's story, and even substituted himself from it.

Indeed, he has not been really brave once since the beginning, and if he is brave this time, will there be a good result.

A drop of water can pierce the stone, and a thousand rivers meet the Yangtze River, even if Zhang Ruoyu doesn't like him, as long as he is still in Shangyang County, they still have the possibility of continuing to be together.

After making up his mind in his heart, Chai Jiangyun calmly told Mr. Staff about his feelings for Zhang Ruoyu.

In his opinion, this is a mutual comfort between two men after being hurt by love, and there is no other possibility at all. It is precisely because I trust the other party too much that I regret what I did today in the future.

When Mr. Staff saw that Yu'er had finally taken the bait, he was overjoyed, but he pretended to be distressed: "But you are like this, but it is a stupid way, and in the end, there is a possibility, that is, let you rely on her all the time, and directly rely on her to someone else's side." ”

"Is there anything else that can be done?" Chai Jiangyun accidentally fell into the trap of Mr. Staff.

Mr. Staff hesitated for a moment: "Yes, yes, I just don't know if you are willing to ......" When he finished saying this, he waved his hand again, as if this incident had not happened: "Forget it, when I didn't say it." ”

This kind of thought of wanting to speak and stop immediately hooked Chai Jiangyun, he grabbed Mr. Staff's sleeve, and said nervously: "Mr. Trouble teach me!" ”

Mr. Staff glanced at him and quickly avoided his eyes: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it." ”

"There's nothing I can't accept, as long as I can finally get her to come to me, I can do anything."

"Don't you care if it makes her hurt and wronged? As long as she can finally come to you? Mr. Staff asked.

"This..."Chai Jiangyun rarely hesitated, but after thinking of Zhao Ling, he nodded resolutely: "Even if she is injured, as long as she can finally come to my side, I will take care of her and spend a lifetime dealing with her wounds." ”
