Chapter 68: Refusal

I sent Mo Xi back to the room early to rest last night, and when I thought that those words were overheard, I felt uneasy, no matter which one of my sisters and brothers, it would be no good for me.

As soon as I got up today, I ran to the front hall, only to see that there was nothing abnormal on the faces of Qinghe and Qingmu, so I relaxed a little, but it was Moxi, with a look of indifference, as if nothing had happened.

Qinghe told me that after using the gourd's flower dew, my skin was much more moisturized, and even the rouge coloring became more compliant.

Since Qinghe is used well, I made three or four gourds with Aoki and asked him to take them out and buy them, which is rare and expensive, and it is very troublesome to refine and distill this kind of thing, not to mention a hundred taels of silver, at least ten taels of silver are still needed.

Aoki didn't tell me how he planned to sell this kind of thing, but looking at his sworn appearance, I wasn't too worried, everything was difficult at the beginning, and I had to try.

After a meal at noon, Aoki came out with flowers, and I wanted to go with him, but I was left by Qinghe, saying that there was something important to find me.

"Childe......" Qing He called me softly in a low voice.

She had been silent since I entered the study, and when I asked her what was wrong, she didn't speak, so I had to sit at my desk and watch her.

I heard her call me, and I didn't come to my senses for a while, "Huh? ”

"Is Childe leaving?" When she said this, she choked up slightly, and the pale green Luo skirt also wanted to be stained with water vapor, hazy and swaying slightly.

I raised my eyes to look at her, but my bright teeth and red lips were depressed and weeping, a pair of phoenix eyes were smart, such a beauty was really tempting, but unfortunately, I am not a man. "Was that you last night?" I asked her, and I didn't mean to blame, in fact, if that person was her, I was more relieved.

Qinghe nodded, wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, looked at me, and was afraid of seeing me, the hesitation was obvious.

"I'm not innocent, but since you've heard it, I'll tell you about it. Mo Xi and I fled here from Yanjing, just want to live a few days of peace, but the officers and soldiers will eventually find out here, I don't want to drag you two brothers and sisters, in a few days, you can leave here. After saying these words in one breath, it doesn't seem to be too difficult, not as difficult as I imagined, after all, these words are seven points true or false.

After hearing this, there was no panic in her eyes, but she was indifferent, and suddenly knelt on the ground, looking at me, with a firm face, "Childe, I said that I will serve for life, and this life belongs to Childe, so I am naturally not afraid of any drag." ”

"Hurry up." I hurriedly reached out to help her up, and like this, it made me embarrassed, "Why are you so troubled, I am not the lover you can entrust for life." ”

She looked at me, her eyes trembled, and her tears were like pearls with broken threads, which made me feel at a loss, "Childe, what's wrong with me?" ”

"You're good everywhere, you're very good, it's me who is not good." What should I say, I'm a woman, I can't say this kind of thing, I don't dare to take this risk.

Her face was full of disbelief, and she was still entangled, "Then why don't you want me, I can change what I don't like." After saying that, he lowered his head deeper, almost burying it in his chest.

I know that saying those words just now is already very difficult for her to be a lady, I really don't know how to say it, how to reject her to understand, "I promised Moxi that I will only love her alone in this life." ”

In this case, it's straightforward enough, this lame excuse is the most subtle I can think of.

"I don't want to compete with my wife for favor, I just want to stay by my son's side for the rest of my life." After saying that, she was about to kneel down again, but I grabbed her and sighed heavily.

I held her weak and boneless Qianqianyu hand, and looked at it, it was already a little rough, maybe it was done housework during this time, but the distinct knuckles showed that this was the hand used to stroke the piano and embroider. I thought for a while before I spoke, "Qinghe, let's talk about this matter later, if there is no change in ten days, let's talk about it again, okay?" ”

She was stunned, and quickly nodded, tears still flowing, making me apologize for a while.

After she slowly calmed down, I took her out of the room, and watched Jiamo Xi playing alone on the flower platform in the yard from a distance.

Walking in with Qinghe, I found that the flowers I planted more than half a month ago have sprouts, but the leaves on the plane trees in this yard are gradually yellowing and drying, and it is estimated that they will fall in a few days.

When Mo Xi saw us coming, she greeted me with a smile to see the new gadgets she had discovered, I stretched my neck to look, startled, a bunch of crooked earthworms, entangled and struggling, holding my forehead only to feel goosebumps falling to the ground, bursts of cold sweat, how did I not know that Mo Xi still had this hobby.

I retreated far away, Qinghe didn't look at it, but helped me, and her legs were slightly soft and trembling, she asked me curiously, "Childe, what did you see?" ”

Before I could answer, Mo Xi said, "Earth Dragon." ”

Earthworm? It turns out that earthworms still have this nickname? It's really chic.

When Qing He heard this, he immediately covered his mouth and exclaimed, making a scared look and avoiding it.

It turns out that I'm not the only one who is afraid of this thing, it's really not that I'm timid, well, that's it.

Mo Xi turned his head and saw the two of us standing far away, with a look of disdain, still fiddling with the branches, muttering, "Oh, it's really timid, how fun the meat is." ”

Hearing this, I just felt that a flock of crows flew over my head, such a disgusting thing, where is it fun.

"Qinghe, let's go out for a walk, I can see ......" Before he finished speaking, his stomach churned.

Qinghe immediately nodded, and helped me to walk to the front hall, Mo Xi was still covering his head and poking those earthworms, it seems that I have to raise a pet for her when I have time, I am about to be disgusted to death by fiddling with those things all day long.

Just go out and see if I can meet that little guy Aoki and see how his little business is doing.

I went to the front hall and drank a cup of tea, relieved the uncomfortable feeling in my stomach, and went out with Qinghe, this is the first time, I went to the street alone with her.

It's still the same as usual, I used to feel fresh, but now I just feel normal, I slowed down my pace, looked left and right, there was no destination, and suddenly remembered that Moxi's favorite osmanthus cake happened to be not far from East Lane, so I planned to buy some.

Xu was used to his speed, and when he wanted to buy snacks, his steps became faster, and after a few steps, he heard the sound of Aoki's trotting and was a little out of breath, so he realized that he was walking too fast.

Sure enough, I'm still living too roughly, almost all of them are women of the same age, I'm in front of Qinghe, how do I look like a man, wearing a navy blue robe, my hair is just tied up high, I went out in a hurry, and I forgot to draw my eyebrows, and my already feminine face is becoming more and more heroic.

To be honest, I'm a little suspicious of Qinghe's girl's eyes, it's really strange that someone like me likes a little white face in this era.

"Qinghe, if you have anything you want to eat, or what you need, Childe will buy it for you today." I paused, turned to her, and smiled.

Qing He was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth rose, as if he was thinking for a while, before he said, "Qing He doesn't lack anything." ”

"After this village, there is no such shop, and there may not be a chance in the future." I expected to hear her answer, but I always felt that I had rejected her in the morning, and I wanted to send something to compensate her, and it was okay to comfort her psychologically.

She smiled even more happily this time, and blinked her eyes, "Okay, okay, Childe will give Qinghe a peach hairpin?" ”

"Alright, no problem." This request was too simple, and as soon as he agreed, he took her and walked towards Naxi Fengxuan.

Listening to Aoki, that Xi Fengxuan is the best jewelry store in the whole Qingzhou, I apologize so sincerely, I think she will definitely forgive me for being reckless just now.

When the peach hairpin was inserted on Qinghe's head, I suddenly remembered that Aoki had said before that there was this hairpin for the object of love, and I only said a few days ago that I was just a peach wood, not worthy of Puyu, but she asked me today for this peach hairpin, the friendship is too obvious, I, why didn't I remember it.

There must be another misunderstanding, and it's really getting more and more unclear.

Qinghe didn't see my decadence, she was excited, and she couldn't stop talking happily, I had to laugh, otherwise she thought I was sorry for the silver and regretted it, but I really regretted it, and I regretted it at the beginning.

I walked to the house with the osmanthus cake I bought for Moxi, and my mind was full of love tokens, love tokens, so that I didn't hear what Qinghe said later, I only remembered that I had been, um-mm-yes yes promised her, I didn't see Aoki setting up a stall to buy things on the road, and I didn't know if he could sell it.

As soon as I stepped into the door of the front hall, I heard the laughter of Moxi Silver Bell, and when I walked in, I found that Aoki had already returned, his face was full of pride, and there was a pile of silver neatly stacked on the table in the upper hall.

Aoki was originally talking to Mo Xi about something, but when he saw me coming in, he hurriedly ran to me to ask for credit, "Childe, do you guess how much I earned today?" ”

"Didn't you take four in the morning, forty taels?" After that, he gave him four fingers.

Aoki shook his head and said, "No, no, guess." ”

"Is it a loss?" I looked at him in disbelief, but he didn't look like he had lost money, "Forty-five? Fifty taels? It can't be any more. ”

"Sixty! Sixty taels! Aoki giggled and held out a number six at me.

Sixty taels? Just those four bottles of distilled water? Converted into RMB, I think about it, ......, anyway, there are so many, I can't see it, Aoki really has a business mind, it's rare that I didn't see the wrong person.

slapped him on the shoulder and praised, "Sure enough, the person is a big ghost, yes, you can keep the sixty taels." ”

"I only need ten taels to be enough, just buy materials." He looked at me seriously, this look really like a little adult, seeing that I was puzzled, he smiled and said, "Childe, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, you have taught me the method, in the future, Aoki will earn six hundred taels, six thousand taels, or even more, but Childe's kindness is not something that can be repaid by silver taels, not to mention our agreement, I have not forgotten." ”

This kid really cares about it, I remember saying that I lent him money to do business, and the profits in the future should be shared with him, it was just a joke, but now ......
