Chapter Seventy-One: Before the Flower and Under the Moon (Part II)
Shu'er looked up at the moonlight among the flowers and muttered, "When I find myself, I'll go to you...... Will you still wait for me then? ”
Zhuge calmly stared at Shu'er's side face and said, "I'll wait, but don't let me wait too long." Three years, if you don't come to me after three years, I'll go to you. ”
Shu'er turned her head to look at Zhuge calmly, and the moment her eyes met, she was doomed to the entanglement of this life. He changed his usual casual and uninhibited, and he didn't have a ridiculous or confident smile, and there was only seriousness and sincerity in his eyes. At that moment, Shu'er almost surrendered, and she wanted to tell him her background and hardships: "Young Master Zhuge , I understand what you mean. You are saying that it is not the mountains and rivers that stand in the way of you and me, but my thin mask, which I refuse to take off for you. ”
Zhuge calmly reached out to caress a wisp of green silk between his temples, as if he was taking off the so-called mask for her. He said softly: "Miss Yan, don't worry, I will wait for you." If I don't wait for you, it proves that I don't deserve to be honest with me. Go back to Chen Kingdom to display your ambitions first, and then go to Song Kingdom to untie your heart knot. Your blue wave incense should strike while the iron is hot, and sell more while it is hot. However, rouge gouache, like clothing, cannot be immutable and enduring, and a cosmetics shop alone cannot make you rich and rival the country. If you really want to make a fortune, you not only need to earn enough gold and silver money, but also need to recruit and cultivate business talents. Not only must you be able to do it yourself, but you must also be able to let it go, so that you can have a big family and a lot of money. When you have time, remember to broaden your horizons and learn other ways to make money, and when your business is pervasive in Chen, you can go one step closer to the rich and rival country. ”
Shu'er thought, "What's the point of telling him that I'm the princess of the Song Kingdom?" It wasn't that he was thrown into the Jade River and got on the boat of the Zhuge family to escape...... Could it be that I told him that my biological mother was the princess of the dead country in the willow lane of Flower Street, the adoptive mother was the grounded palace concubine in the Song Palace, and the nominal father was King Song Huai, and the real father may not know who it is for the rest of his life? If he had known, whether he looked down on me or sympathized with me, it was something I didn't want. Then the words came to his lips and he swallowed them back. She has been wearing this mask for too long, only Lin Ying knows, and Lin Ying has already guessed but not said it, how can she easily take off her guard for a drunken heartbeat?
Shu'er lowered his head and sighed: "Young Master Zhuge , I don't know how to thank you......"
Zhuge calmly regained his easy-going and confident smile and said, "Thank me for what?" I still have a lot of sweet words and lingering love words to say to you, don't you thank you now. The King of Shu said so much to you just now, although the moon is full tonight and the scenery is attractive, I don't want to follow his ass and be courteous to you. Or wait until you are done with your business, and completely forget all the words of the old disrespectful man, and then I will appeal to you and show my loyalty. ”
Shu'er said angrily: "I didn't listen to his jokes!" ”
Zhuge calmly was a little worried: "He's not joking. Although he spoke and acted with a big smile and no grace, I had never heard him make such a joke with others. Alas, my first rival in love is the king of a country, Boss Yan, how do you say this is good? ”
Shu'er smiled and asked, "What do you mean by 'the first rival in love'?" Could there be a second, a third? ”
Zhuge calmly continued to say worriedly: "Of course there will be!" When you dressed as a broken sleeve, I almost thought I was a broken sleeve too. Before you changed into women's clothes and served in the dust, you had already entered the eyes of the King of Shu. Now that you have changed into women's clothes, you look like a country and a city, I am afraid that in the future, my rivals will be the kings of a country, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty...... If this continues, I, a cloth warrior and a lonely island trader, don't know if I can still marry a daughter-in-law! ”
Shu'er was amused by him, almost fell from the tree, rubbed her stomach and said, "Your honey-smeared mouth is more powerful than the martial arts you have collected in the world combined!" ”
Zhuge smiled calmly: "Don't look at me as if I can only dance and play with swords all day long, in fact, since I was a child, my father-in-law also taught me to read, write, play the piano and draw!" It's not that I'm not ashamed to boast about myself, competing with you for favor with the kings of a country and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but don't underestimate me. If you can't learn five cars, don't read thousands of books, and can't travel thousands of miles, can you smear so much honey on your mouth? ”
Shu'er said: "Tut-tut, I really smeared a lot of honey on my mouth, so that the sister of the Xue family who raised a poisonous snake python can be obedient, and you are the only one who respects ......."
Before the words fell, Zhuge calmly restrained his smile and explained solemnly: "Don't get me wrong, I don't have the slightest friendship with her, I am just someone I knew when I was a child." My stepfather and her father have known each other for many years, but I don't have any friendship with her. When I was a child, I only lived in Yaowang Villa for a few days, and when I saw the python she raised, I was also very scared, and I avoided her. They didn't see her again for many years, and they didn't know each other well. ”
Shu'er listened to his explanation, and was inexplicably happy, but she still said seriously: "Young Master Zhuge , don't dislike her because she raised a giant python, and don't flatter me because I am holding a sword." ”
Zhuge said calmly: "Speaking of giant pythons, I think of one thing. Tomorrow, whether my father-in-law and I go or not, you leave Yaowang Mountain with the King of Shu first, and hurry up to the Biliang Chrysanthemum Workshop on the shore of Biliang Lake to discuss business, don't delay any longer, otherwise the people in your Chen Guo store should worry about your safety. ”
Shu'er said: "You are in such a hurry to bombard me away, are you afraid that your Xue sister's sister will order the giant python to eat me?" ”
Zhuge said calmly: "It's good if you know!" Where am I bombarding you away, I wish I could take you in my arms and keep you with me, even if I teach you all the martial arts I know, it doesn't matter. But the Xue family's giant python and poison are not a joke, if they don't welcome you, for your safety, you still don't stay here for a long time. If you leave with King Shu, I can rest assured a little. ”
Shu'er nodded: "Then I will leave Yaowang Mountain with King Shu tomorrow, and then he will go back to Zichuan, and I will go to Biliang Lake." Young Master Zhuge , say goodbye tonight, and there will be a period later. ”
Zhuge calmly instructed: "Before you leave tomorrow, you should change back into men's clothes." Although there is such a fuss today, I am afraid that the people of the ten sects and eight factions will know that you are a woman sooner or later, but since they can't beat you, and you have the sword forged by Meng Lin to protect you, you don't have to worry too much. If the King of Shu assigns guards to you, you don't have to refuse, after all, Xiling is difficult to walk, and not everyone in the ten sects and eight factions can protect you thoroughly. It's a pity that my father-in-law asked me to go back to the island with him, and I can't accompany you to Biliang Lake.
