Fluttering snowflakes fluttered briskly between the heavens and the earth.

On the road leading from Fengyang Town to the capital, there was a horse-drawn carriage running, and the driver and carriage were covered with snowflakes. In the shaking carriage sat the nervous Du Xiaomeng.

At the moment, her mind was filled with all kinds of questions and many nonsense thoughts.

She really wanted to know why Zhan Qi suddenly appeared in the Shen family's dyeing workshop, and why he took her away from the dyeing workshop without giving her any reason, was there a mutation in the capital or something happened to Old Man Zhan? She couldn't figure out what to do, and wanted to ask Zhan Qi for clarification immediately, but the carriage, which was running fast forward on the snow and had a skidding sensation from time to time, made her dismiss this idea at once.

Worried about her own safety, she had to temporarily put aside the doubts in her heart, grabbed the seat with both hands to stabilize her body, and sat in the carriage as if she were facing a great enemy.

Du Xiaomeng's nerves were tense along the way, and she was relieved when the carriage finally arrived at its destination smoothly and stopped steadily.

After getting out of the carriage and seeing the gate of the General's Mansion, the mystery that Du Xiaomeng had pressed down before rose again. However, she was not allowed to have a chance to ask questions, so Zhan Qi took her hand and led her to walk quickly towards the general's mansion.

This hand-holding action made Du Xiaomeng stunned. What kind of wind is this guy smoking today? From the moment he appeared in the dyehouse, he was eccentric, and he repeatedly behaved unusually, which made her not know how to react for a moment.

Zhan Qi took Du Xiaomeng's hand tightly and took her straight to his residence, and asked her to sit down with a serious face, saying, "Wait for me." ”

After speaking, he let go of Du Xiaomeng and turned around to open the cabinet, as if he was rummaging for something.

Until this moment, Du Xiaomeng finally found an opportunity to ask: "You suddenly brought me back to the capital, did something big happen?" ”

Zhan Qitou didn't reply, "No." ”

Du Xiaomeng frowned, looked at his back and asked puzzledly, "How could you bring me back without you?" Is it the old man Zhan's body ......" she paused, "No, you smiled at me when you were in the dyeing workshop, if something happened to his old man, you would never laugh." Hey, you can tell me what the hell is going on! ”

Zhan Qi took out a black lacquered wooden box from the cabinet and put it on the table, sat opposite Du Xiaomeng, glanced at her and seemed to turn his gaze to the wooden box with a little weakness, and was silent for a moment before looking up at Du Xiaomeng and said with some slush: "Xiaomeng, I, I will bring you back, in fact, there is actually one thing I want to ask your opinion." ”

Seeing the wooden box on the table, the first thing that came to Du Xiaomeng's mind was the jade pendant she had given Yu Tianzheng before. Her heart sank in an instant, and every nerve in her body tensed, but she still pretended to look at Zhan Qi casually, and said with dissatisfaction: "You're not, right?" Just to ask my opinion for making such a big move? What's not to say in the dye shop that you have to bring me back? ”

"I'm ......" Zhan Qi stopped talking, his eyes were still a little shrunken and he didn't dare to look at her directly.

This move made Du Xiaomeng even more convinced that he must have done something sorry for himself, for example, selling her to Yu Tianzheng again.

This soul is really dead! Thinking of this, Du Xiaomeng's heart was so angry that she almost slapped Zhan Qi in the face, but she couldn't help but continue to pretend that nothing happened, smiled and said, "Don't you know how to say it?" Then let's not talk about it yet. The dyeing workshop has been really busy recently, and if I run away like this, I may be deducted from my salary by Sister Yang. I'll have to go back to work, and when you think of what to say, come back to me at the dyehouse." ”

With that, she stood up at a fast speed and was about to slip out.

"Little Meng!" Before she could step one foot out of the threshold, Zhan Qi had already caught up and grabbed her hand tightly, handed the wooden box to her and said, "I want to give you the contents of the box!" ”

Du Xiaomeng looked at him vigilantly and then at the wooden box, and refused without thinking too much: "Don't." ”

This crisp refusal made Zhan Qi a little overwhelmed. He had no experience in pursuing women, and back then, it was Qiusha who took the initiative to push him down.

In Du Xiaomeng's opinion, his appearance is definitely a thief. Du Xiaomeng tried to pull his hand away as hard as possible, and said as calmly as possible: "I'm really busy, is there anything to talk about later?" ”

Zhan Qi grabbed her and didn't let go, and the wooden box between the two of them fell to the ground without holding it steadily.

With a "pop", the wooden box hit the ground and opened, and a brocade cloth bag fell out of the wooden box. Zhan Qi hurriedly let go of Du Xiaomeng and bent over to pick up the brocade cloth bag, while Du Xiaomeng took this opportunity to pull out his legs and run out.

She couldn't run a few steps, and she was chased by Zhan Qi. Zhan Qi hugged her from behind, and said anxiously: "Xiaomeng, I'm very sincere, don't you run?" ”

Du Xiaomeng shouted loudly while struggling desperately: "No! I don't care if you're sincere or not, if you don't let go, I'll shout indecent! ”

"Xiaomeng, listen to me......"

"Help! What a disrespect! ”

Seeing that he was at an obvious disadvantage, Du Xiaomeng didn't give Zhan Qi a chance to speak, so she decisively opened her throat and shouted.

In this situation, Zhan Qi couldn't help but think of the situation when he met Du Xiaomeng for the first time.

Did she misunderstand herself again? After living for so many years, it is rare for him to take the initiative to be treated like a bad person, and he is very depressed. With a black line, he immediately covered Du Xiaomeng's mouth with one hand to prevent her from screaming, shook off the brocade cloth bag with the other hand and handed the contents to Du Xiaomeng's eyes, saying: "I want to give this thing to you, or not, I just want an answer from you, I won't embarrass you." ”

Seeing the thing shaking in front of her clearly, Du Xiaomeng couldn't help but stop struggling. Seeing that she didn't move, Zhan Qi carefully let go of her, walked in front of her and looked directly at her face, and said seriously: "Xiaomeng, are you willing to accept my gift?" ”

What Zhan Qi was holding in his hand was the family heirloom jade Liangyi jade, and under closer inspection, it was still the yin jade in it.

Du Xiaomeng remembered that Old Man Zhan had said that Yangyu was passed on to the eldest son of the Zhan family, and Yinyu was passed on to the eldest daughter-in-law; She had never forgotten how Zhan Qi viciously asked her to hand over the jade. She stared at the piece of jade and didn't react immediately, and after a while, she raised her head and looked at Zhan Qi with a puzzled face and asked, "Why did you give me the things you snatched from me?" ”

"This ......" Zhan Qi frowned, thought about it for a while, and said, "Because, because I think this jade pendant is the most suitable for you." ”

Hearing this answer, Du Xiaomeng, whose head was still in a state of confusion, took the jade over and asked, "Are you proposing to me?" ”

Zhan Qi looked at her and replied in an affirmative tone, "Absolutely." ”

Du Xiaomeng's hand holding the jade couldn't help shaking, and she asked a little stammering: "For, why do you have such thoughts?" You, you don't ...... all the time"

"I like you!" Zhan Qi interrupted Du Xiaomeng's words, "Someone made me understand that your position in my heart is so important, I can't lose you, I can't let you leave my side again." Xiaomeng, would you like to grant me this request? Speaking of the last sentence, Zhan Qi lowered his tone with a little weakness, and looked at Du Xiaomeng with anxious eyes of anticipation, waiting for her decision.

Faced with this unexpected marriage proposal scene, Du Xiaomeng's first reaction was to freeze, and after a while, she came back to her senses and pinched her thigh hard, which hurt very much, proving that she was not dreaming. She avoided Zhan Qi's gaze, lowered her head and pretended to look at the jade pendant in her hand, so as to stabilize her fast-beating heart.

Before she could stabilize her mind, the brothers and sisters of the Zhan family didn't know where they came out, surrounded her with bright smiles, and said in unison: "Miss Du, you just promise the eldest brother!" ”

Zhan Qi stepped forward to take Du Xiaomeng's hand, and said happily, "Sister Du, are you okay with being my sister-in-law?" ”

Du Xiaomeng raised her head in a panic, just in time to meet Zhan Qi's expectant gaze, which fell into her eyes and fell into her heart, and a sweet feeling arose. She lowered her head to look at the jade in her hand, and a smile from the bottom of her heart came to her lips.

Secretly clenching the jade in his hand, Du Xiaomeng quickly made a decision. She raised her head again, and was about to open her mouth to say what was on her mind, when without warning, there was a sharp pain in her chest, and her head hurt as if it was about to explode.

The brothers and sisters of the Zhan family who were surrounding were still waiting for Du Xiaomeng's reply with anticrisy, but they saw Du Xiaomeng squatting on the ground as if she was in pain, her face pale. Zhan Qi went up and was about to help her up, but she suddenly stood up and screamed with a frightened look on her face: "You go away!" I don't want to marry you! No! ”

After screaming, she pushed Zhan Qisa's legs away and ran wildly, but she stopped after running for about ten meters, and the whole person fell straight to the ground.

"Little Meng!"

Zhan Qi hurriedly ran forward to pick up Du Xiaomeng, only to see that her face was blue, her eyes were closed, her lips were not bloody, and there were a few bloody marks on her face on the side that touched the ground.

"Go get a doctor!" Zhan Qi anxiously shouted at the other people who hadn't reacted yet.

Zhan Ren came back to his senses first, and he answered and hurried out.

Watching Zhan Qi carry Du Xiaomeng back to the room, Zhan Qi and Zhan Yi glanced at each other, with puzzled expressions on their faces. The time they have lived with Du Xiaomeng is not short, and they have always seen that Du Xiaomeng and the eldest brother get along well, even if she is unwilling to marry the eldest brother, she will not have such a big reaction. Looking at her fierce reaction just now, I didn't know that I thought she was forced to marry by an enemy with a deep hatred.
