Chapter 31: Can a General Marry a Beautiful Wife?
But he knew very clearly in his heart that he had something to do, something big.
And you can't say that.
No matter who you can't say, because, once you say it, the Xu family will completely lose their current happiness and worry-free, and the mother will wash her face with tears every day, and the father will instantly age a few years old, and the younger sister-
He lowered his eyes, perhaps, no, according to the degree of liking of the general at the moment, his sister would definitely hate him, and even disgusted him, disgusted him, and felt that he must have been broken somewhere, so that he would have such a mood towards a man, a man who is also a man.
Not to mention, it's still someone my sister has a crush on.
Therefore, such a dirty thought, he has to hide it strictly, and he can't reveal any hints of it, otherwise, there will be no more anything, even-
When I thought of it, if I knew that he had such a mind, I was afraid that I wouldn't look at him again.
If that's the case, just thinking about it-
Xu Qingchen felt that his heart was aching.
Ah, that's weird—
Obviously, I have seen it very few times, and after careful calculation, it is only three times, but why did I take it to heart?
How do you get to the bottom of it?
Why didn't I notice it at all?
Or is it —
Is it really love at first sight, and never forget this kind of thing?
Xu Qingchen, who was confused in his mind and had mixed thoughts, sat there with empty eyes, slowly reflecting and recalling, and then, very clearly, the scene of meeting that person for the first time was replayed in his mind over and over again, which made him suddenly have an epiphany.
Yes.
At first glance, he was in his heart, but he mistakenly thought that he admired the person's ease and was amazed by the person's appearance, so he wanted to talk to him and become his friend.
However, this is a misunderstanding.
He wants to be close to him, he wants to know him, he wants to be familiar with him, he wants to go one step closer to him, so he will always be close and in contact with him-
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he has always been as gentle as jade, but he knows how cold his heart is, until now, except for his family and Qiu Cheng, he can't see the tragic situation of other people's life and death at all, and he can't put it in his heart.
The Master has mentioned -
He has a very high level of understanding and is born with a Buddha heart, but because of this, he seems to be used to seeing it, and has experienced countless lives and deaths, so he has long been cold and no longer in his eyes.
And the partial, he is not willing to pretend, pretend that he pities others, and is willing to help others, so even though he has a high level of understanding and is born with a Buddha heart, he is also extremely ruthless.
Therefore, in this life, he will actually be lonely and helpless, but he never thought that he would see such a person, and put such a person into his heart, but he didn't know it at all, until now, it is a foregone conclusion, and he has no power to turn back.
"Lord and Miss are back!"
Just when Xu Qingchen slowly closed his eyes and pressed all his thoughts into his heart to prevent people from peeking into the slightest, there was a shout from the little guy outside, which made him stunned, and when he opened his eyes, he saw his mother who was overjoyed, wanting to stand up and greet the two.
But he forgot that he had injured his ankle, and exclaimed in pain, which also made the father and sister who walked in the door hear clearly, and their expressions changed, and they hurriedly stepped forward.
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay—"
Mrs. Xu waved her hand again and again, and beckoned to Xu Jiaojiao, who was standing at the door and didn't dare to come in.
"Come on! Come on! Let my mother see—"
“……”
I don't know how to be appeased by Lord Xu, her mood calmed down a lot, and Xu Jiaojiao, who also realized how impulsive she was before, blushed with shame at this moment, walked in, grabbed her mother's outstretched hand, and her eyes were red.
"Mother, but because of me, you were injured?"
"It's not because of you! It was accidentally touched by the mother herself, and it is not about Jiaojiao! ”
As soon as she saw her daughter's red eyes, Mrs. Xu was also red in distress, and hurriedly opened her mouth to comfort her.
But, even so, Xu Jiaojiao also knew that if it weren't for her willfulness, let her mother run after her, how could her mother accidentally bump into her?
Xu Jiaojiao, who blamed herself, squatted down, lay on Mrs. Xu's lap and cried.
"I'm sorry! Mother! I'm sorry—"
"Good girl, good ——, Jiaojiao, don't cry! It's not about the delicate—"
As soon as she saw her daughter crying so sadly, Mrs. Xu also cried in distress, so that Lord Xu on the side looked at the two of them helplessly and sighed deeply.
"Don't cry, I have a headache!"
As soon as he said this, the mother stopped crying instantly, and looked up at him worriedly, but when she saw his playful expression, she knew that he was pretending, which made the mother and mother angry and funny, and in the end, they all burst out laughing.
And, seeing them like this, Lord Xu breathed a sigh of relief, coughed lightly, and looked at his wife, a little entangled with - well, scared?
This appearance made Mrs. Xu squint her eyes and stare at him.
"What did you do?"
"Ahem—"
As soon as he heard Mrs. Xu's words, he coughed uncontrollably, which made Mrs. Xu's expression more serious.
It's just that before Lord Xu could explain, Xu Jiaojiao knelt down at Mrs. Xu, which made Mrs. Xu stunned.
"Jiaojiao! What are you doing? ”
"Mother, you have taught me since I was a child, a woman is a wife, not a concubine, only in this way can she and her children not be inferior, be restrained everywhere, and be able to stand tall and raise your head to be a man, without fear——"
As soon as Xu Jiaojiao's words came out, Mrs. Xu was not happy, but her face sank.
"Jiaojiao! Do you know what you're talking about?! ”
"Mother-"
Xu Jiaojiao hugged her head in pain.
"I know! To anyone! I am only for my wife, not for my concubine, this is the pride and dignity that my mother cultivated me, but there are two kinds of men in this world, and women who can't do everything possible to be his wife must become his concubine——"
"One is the emperor, because his wife must be in his eyes and can be his virtuous helper, and the other is the beloved, who already has a wife, or even does not, but he can't choose his wife, or he doesn't want to choose you as his wife—"
"So, either you let it go, or you can only become a concubine, but mother, I can't let it go, I've only looked at this one so far, and even, I know, except for him, I can't look down on anyone else anymore——"
"Even, apart from him, I will really never marry for the rest of my life, so mother-"
Xu Jiaojiao cried, ashamed, and couldn't control herself.
"I, I can't, I can only retreat, I can only retreat, mother-"
"You, you-"
Mrs. Xu, who was trembling with anger, pointed to the girl in front of her, who was raised single-handedly, feeling pain and helplessness in her heart.
How did she not know this?
Even, she is not the original wife of her husband!
She survived until her husband's original wife died, and then she tried every means to marry him!
He was fifteen years older than her, and he had always mistakenly thought that he was pointed out to him by the emperor, and after he couldn't resist the decree, he always felt guilty and blamed himself for thinking that he had delayed such a good girl in her prime.
