Chapter 2 Encounter
The girl turned to look at her, and her tone was the usual indifferent: "No need, my father-in-law has something to say." β
Chang Xinghou knows her temperament very well, and she doesn't force it. Walked in front of her with a negative hand, his eyes were gentle: "Du'er is not young anymore, my father-in-law has shown you a good marriage." Some time ago, my father-in-law met the second son of Feng Yushi's family in the restaurant, and the second son of Feng admired Du'er between his words, and wanted to accept Du'er as a concubine, but I don't know if Du'er is willing? β
Xu Chaodui was slightly stunned when he heard this, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes that were as light as clear water.
Scanning the elegant middle-aged man in front of her, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
Is Chang Xinghou crazy?
Not to mention being a concubine, even if she is a wife, she is not uncommon.
Changxing waited for her puzzled appearance and patiently explained: "Don't worry. Feng Ergongzi has a good appearance and no bad qualities. And her wife is docile and good-natured, and she will not embarrass you. β
Xu Chaowan sneered in his heart.
Yes. In the eyes of others, she is just an adopted daughter, and it is already the best destination to marry the noble children in the capital as concubines.
"I don't agree." A faint tone.
"Why? Twilight is not satisfied? β
"I will not marry, nor will I be a concubine to another. If the Houfu can't accommodate me, just let me go. β
"Twilight, don't be impulsive."
Chang Xinghou hurriedly persuaded him: "You don't want to marry, just your father-in-law refuses." You don't have to think about running away from home. β
Xu Chaodui responded lightly and helped Aunt He to leave in the rain.
"Husband, what you said is true? Then Feng Er Gongzi really wants to take that girl as a concubine? When Xu Chaodui walked away, Yang asked.
Chang Xinghou followed the figure that was gradually moving away in the rain, and sighed helplessly: "Yes." It's just that Du'er doesn't agree, and I can't force her to marry, if she says the wrong thing in a hurry, it will damage the reputation of Houfu. β
Yang sneered: "This is her blessing, but she is not happy." β
"Madam," Chang Xinghou turned around and held Yang's hand, and said in a gentle tone, "I see that Feng Er Gongzi is also a good person, and he will definitely not bully Du'er." If Twilight agrees to marry, it will be a good thing for her and the Houfu, so you might as well help persuade her. β
Yang smiled gently and responded: "Don't worry, husband, the concubine will definitely persuade her." Although the concubine hated this girl, it would not ruin her life's events. β
β¦β¦
In the elegant room, the plain-clothed girl sat in the Xuan, her palm-sized face was red and swollen from being slapped, and there were still blood stains on the corners of her mouth.
A young man in a green robe was giving her medicine.
The young man's movements were gentle and gentle, for fear of hurting her again.
"Sister, does it hurt?" There was distress in the gentle tone.
The boy is Xu Chaodu's younger brother, Xu Chaoheng.
The young man has a handsome appearance, and his eyebrows are somewhat similar to his sister.
The young man has been weak since he was a child, and he is not as strong as a child of his age.
The teenager is tranquil by nature, likes to read, and likes to carve.
"Ah Heng helps Sister Ah take medicine, and it won't hurt."
Xu Chaodui smiled playfully, judging the girl who was as cold as ice in front of the people.
"Sister, let's go." The boy stopped his movements and squatted in front of her, his lacquered eyes fixed on her.
"Okay." Xu Chaowan raised his hand to touch his cheek and said softly, "When Sister is ready for everything, we will leave here." β
The young man smiled: "Where Sister Ah goes, Ah Heng will go." β
"Twilightβ"
At this moment, a female voice came from outside the door, breaking the moment of warmth.
With a squeak, the vermilion lacquer carved wooden door was pushed open, and the girl with bright eyes and bright teeth trotted in.
The girl was wearing a blue scattered flower Ruyi moire skirt, and a pair of colorful hibiscus bracelets were put on her wrists.
The cloud sideburns wear a hollow carved amethyst step, and a chrysanthemum brocade fine satin cloak is draped outside.
Extravagant and cute, it is very different from the elegant girl in plain clothes, but each has its own merits.
One is like a bright and delicate flower in spring, and the other is like a lonely and arrogant cold plum in winter.
"Twilight, I heard from Midori that Mother has punished you again." Anxious tone.
The girl walked briskly towards Xu Chaodu, and the maidservant girl who collected the umbrella behind her followed suit.
The girl is the second daughter of Shangshu Mansion, named Xu Ruixiang.
is different from her sister Xu Tinglan. She has a lively and cheerful temperament, and is easy-going, and she is one of the few people in the house who is friendly to her sisters and brothers.
Facing this only friend, Xu Chaodui restrained his indifference to outsiders and greeted him with a light smile: "It's raining and running to me." β
Xu Ruixiang stared at the girl's red and swollen face, pouted unhappily, and hurriedly took out a small blue glazed porcelain bottle from her arms and stuffed it into her hand.
"Twilight, this snow cream is very effective, if you apply it, it will quickly reduce the swelling."
Xu Chaowan held the cold porcelain vase, and his eyes were smiling: "I have already taken medicine, don't worry." β
Xu Ruixiang gently took her hand, her face was stunned, "Twilight, I'm really sorry." β
Xu Chaowan shook his head, "This has nothing to do with you. β
Xu Ruixiang frowned, pouted and complained: "A few days ago, my mother was angry, and she was locked in the house and thought about it. I just heard the green branch say that you have been punished, so I sneaked out. Twilight, I'm so sorry, if Midori had told me earlier, I would have killed you and saved you! β
Xu Chaowan was amused by her puffing up little appearance, and patted her hand to comfort: "Ruixiang don't worry, I'm really fine." β
Xu Ruixiang wanted to say something, but when she met the girl's gentle gaze, she didn't know how to speak, so she could only secretly be angry with Yang in her heart.
Mother still can't let go of that incident, why do she have to sprinkle it on Twilight when she is angry?
She's an innocent person.
If it really doesn't work, he will take Twilight away and fly away, and go through the rivers and lakes together.
"Ruixiang, what are you thinking?"
Qingling's female voice pulled her thoughts from far away in the rivers and lakes back to reality.
Xu Ruixiang stretched out her claws and rubbed her face, and smiled: "Because I saw Twilight, I'm so happy!" By the way, Twilight, I specially asked Midori to buy the pastries of Jinlaisi and bring them to you to taste! β
β¦β¦
Xun Fang Yuan
"Mother, what are you thinking?" In the house, Xu Tinglan knelt on the seat and brought Yang a cup of hot tea.
"Ting'er, that girl has a good temper and is not pleasant, why did the second son of the Feng family fall in love with that cheap girl?"
Xu Tinglan shook her head indifferently: "My daughter doesn't know, it's a little fresh." β
Yang took a sip of tea and said with a contemptuous smile: "I heard that Feng Ergongzi has a gentle temperament, and he won't treat her badly if he marries, but she doesn't have this blessing." β
Xu Tinglan looked at the Yang family suspiciously: "She is a concubine, so my mother doesn't have to see her upset." Why didn't her mother want her to go? β
Yang lightly placed the teacup on the tea table full of tea utensils, and said casually: "She stays here, and when she is unhappy for her mother, she can still find her trouble to clean her up." If she is a concubine with the second son, the second son will definitely be good to her. β
Speaking of this, Yang sneered: "Her mother's slut didn't have a good life back then, and now this little slut won't have a good life!" β
"What's the mother's idea? What if she suddenly changed her mind and said yes? β
"I know it for my mother. In a few days, it will be your father's birthday banquet, and at that time, he will lead a good show for his mother, so that the little slut can't get married. β
"What's the idea?"
The corners of Yang's mouth rose slightly, and he waved his hand to beckon Fenghua Xueyue standing behind him: "You ......"
β¦β¦
In the night, a lonely moon hangs obliquely on the mountain.
There are a few stars scattered in the canopy of thick ink, like broken diamonds, small and bright.
Because of the rain during the day, the clear air is mixed with the smell of earth.
Under the faint moonlight, a tall black figure walked through the scattered incense path of flowers and branches, and came to the end of the diameter.
The figure stayed in front of the high wall, and in an instant, it jumped like a cat and went over the wall.
Syllable...
The soles of the shoes rub against the floor and make a slight noise.
The girl in an inky light suit got up and patted the dirt off her hands and left without any attachment.
At the same time, two men who were passing by the back road of Houfu saw this scene from a distance.
"Master, can you go along and have a look?"
One of them, a handsome man, asked the man sitting on horseback next to him.
The man was dressed in an ink-colored narrow-sleeved gold-patterned cloud brocade robe, and his black hair was tied high with a jade crown.
He has a dignified appearance, eyebrows like cuts, and a tall posture like a pine and cypress.
Under the thick eyebrows, the eyes of the crane are delicate, black and white.
The eyes are clear and spiritual, as if there is spring water flowing through, infiltrating the heart.
The son of Xuanyi turned over and dismounted neatly, and his voice was light: "You go back to the house by yourself and go to explore alone." β
"Hey, take care of your master......"
Looking at the back in the distance, the little guard who stopped in place scratched his head, why does this sound a little weird?
β¦β¦
Chaoyang City, which was lively during the day, was silent at this time, shrouded in bright moonlight, like a silent and dormant giant beast.
Xu Chaodui came to the foot of the Fuyue Mountain, which is located behind Wuyi Lane in the west of the city, and walked alone in the lonely mountains and forests under the moonlight.
Suddenly, she stopped and listened to the sound of footsteps behind her.
The sound of footsteps accompanied by the sound of black cries in the forest gradually progressed.
In an instant, her eyes darkened, and with lightning speed, she pulled out the short knife at her waist and turned around and stabbed at the man.
Unexpectedly, the man did not make any effort to clamp her wrist holding the hilt of the knife.
Xu Chaodui tried to break free, but the manpower was too strong, and she couldn't escape his control with all her might.
In an instant, her eyes suddenly turned, and she raised her leg and kicked the man's lower body with lightning speed.
The man was still one step ahead of her, and in an instant flashed behind her, reaching out and grabbing her by the back collar and picking her up like a chicken.
Xu Chaodu: ......
Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated.
Relying on his big size, he can insult his opponent like this?
"When the girl was alone in the forest, she hurt people when she shot it, isn't it a little killer from a family?"
The voice is clear and blows in the ears with the night breeze, with a hint of ridicule.
"Nosy."
Xu Chaodui shot back unceremoniously, and his voice was as clear as a stream: "Let go of me!" β
Childe smiled lightly: "The girl hasn't told me yet, why is she walking in the mountains and forests late at night?" β
Xu Chaodui frowned and said coldly: "What do you have to do with it?" β
Childe asked rhetorically: "How is it irrelevant?" If you do something bad and I let you go, won't it mean that I have done something bad? β
Xu Chaodu's hands and feet didn't touch the ground, he was carried in the air and dangled, slightly angry: "You are so rude, don't put me down quickly!" β
The moonlight poured down from the vast sky and sea like flowing water, splashing through the branches of the trees, and falling into the forest.
Childe heard the anger in the woman's tone, unhurriedly put her down, and put his big hand on the top of her soft hair to force her to turn around.
He looked down at the thief who was at the height of his shoulder, and saw that she had a beautiful nose and red lips, and a beautiful and proud face.
A bright cinnabar mole resembling a drop of blood is attached to the tail of the right eyebrow, which is very conspicuous on the fair and lovely face.
His eyes were soaked in the moonlight, and he was stunned.
The girl's face was like a jade stone falling into the heart lake, and it immediately opened a circle of ripples.
Xu Chaodui withdrew the dagger, feeling a little disgusted with this stupid big man, and walked around him towards the depths of the woods.
After walking a few steps, he stopped again and asked, "What are you doing with me?" β
"See what you want to do." Childe, who was four paces away from her behind her, replied.
Xu Chaodui gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and turned around: "I am a good citizen, neither killing nor setting fires, you can put your heart back in your stomach, don't follow me again, go back!" β
"That's even more not." Childe smiled lightly, the dimples on his cheeks appeared, and he was intoxicating under the moonlight.
"The little girl is in danger alone, and she has already come with her, so she will be a messenger to protect the flowers, and when the girl is done, she will send the girl home."
Childe smiled charmingly, and the girl was so angry that her teeth itched.
Xu Chaodui glanced at him and snorted coldly: "No need, get out." β
Childe shook his head and said, "Where the girl goes, I'll go." β
"Whatever you want." The girl covered her face with frost, gave him an eye knife and shook her hand away.
Childe looked at the thin back and followed with steps, as if he was strolling in his own yard.
There is a hidden valley on the mountainside of the moon, and a sea of purple flowers grows in the valley, such as Langyuan Wonderland.
Ten thousand purple flowers bloom faintly under the moon, like a slim girl, graceful and colorful.
The night breeze rises, the sea of flowers rises and falls like waves, and bursts of fragrance linger on the tip of the nose.
The girl walked step by step, and the son followed step by step.
Walking through the sea of flowers, she came to a low grave, hidden in the sea of flowers.
The girl knelt down and kowtowed, and her usual indifferent expression softened at this moment.
"Mother, Twilight has come to see you."
With that, she turned her head to look behind her.
A few steps away, Childe stood with his hands in his hands, standing like a pine and cypress.
The moonlight fell on his body, and it became a scenery of its own among thousands of flowers.
The son is seven feet eight inches tall, with a natural appearance and a beautiful wind god.
"You go away." She looked at him faintly, without any emotion in her eyes.
Childe took a few steps back after hearing this.
He stared at the girl's back, thoughtful.
After many years of absence, she no longer remembers herself.
The little girl who used to follow her and call her "brother" softly and glutinously has now grown into a slim girl.
In the middle of the night, the girl got up, her thin body trembling slightly in the cool night breeze.
She walked towards Li Hanchen and stood still in front of him, "Let's go back to our respective homes, don't follow me anymore." β
Li Hanchen looked down at her, the girl's clear apricot eyes were full of moonlight, and there were still crystal tears on the crow eyelashes like butterfly wings.
She cried.
Li Hanchen was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to speak.
The book of soldiers taught him how to set up a battle in battle, and the book of sages taught him how to do the way of a gentleman, but did not teach him how to coax the little girl.
After a moment's deliberation, he tentatively said, "I'll send you back." β
"No, thank you." Don't hesitate to refuse.
"Family, don't say thank you."
Xu Chaodu: "? β
Isn't this man crazy?
