Chapter 23: What I Want to Say
Chu Junxi took the letter into his arms and continued to accompany Qi Ran. It's just that the letter was like a fire, which made her arms faintly hot, and her ass was like pins and needles, and she wasn't very comfortable when she looked at Qi Ran.
Although she wanted to open the letter directly, Chu Junxi intuitively felt that there must be something terrible on the letter, and if she read it on the spot, she was afraid that she would be overwhelmed. It's better to wait until you get back and sneak around.
The pen in Qi Ran's hand did not stop, but his eyes peeked at Chu Junxi from time to time, although he looked as usual on the surface, but he was always uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't tell what the reason was for Chu Junxi's restless appearance now.
There are things hidden in his heart, and Qi Ran's book copying work today is naturally discounted. The owner of the bookstore sighed as he looked at the wad of paper that Qi Ran had given him. "Girl, you go out and help me look at the store for a while, I have a few words to say to Qi Ran."
Chu Junxi only thought that the boss's friend was still not giving up, and wanted to continue to let Qi Ran go to school, so he didn't care too much, so he went out consciously.
The boss looked at Qi Ran, shook his head helplessly, and felt a little funny. "Boy, is there something on your mind? Although your words look neat today, but there is some irritability, is it for that girl? ”
Qi Ran froze for a moment, did he behave so obviously?
"I said, if you don't copy well, I'll be fined! However, for the sake of your first offense today, I won't bother with you. But! The boss paused and continued, "You have to hurry up about that girl!" I think you're not too young, let your mother hurry up and get the dowry! Although this girl doesn't look down on the rich young master, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be the next one, right? ”
The boss really feels like a broken old mother, why aren't they in a hurry? "Alas, I don't know what you think, anyway, it's you who loses when people run away, and I've said everything I should have said!"
Listening to the boss's impatient thoughts, Qi Ran was really moved. In the past, I was reluctant to go out, and I always only saw the malice of others, but after I met Chu Junxi, I slowly discovered that in fact, this world is not so bad, and there are still many good people.
Qi Ran couldn't say thank you, so he gave a big gift to the boss, but made the boss at a loss, and finally let Qi Ran leave quickly.
When Chu Junxi looked at Qi Ran, her face had a happy expression, and she was still worried, it seemed that it was all redundant. "What are you talking about?"
Qi Ran shook his head and smiled, this is his usual trick, and he has such an expression when he doesn't want to say it. Although Chu Junxi will be depressed for a while, he will not be angry.
And when Chu Junxi reads the content of the letter, he will know if he wants to come. "Forget it, it's not too early, let's hurry up, otherwise that stinky uncle will come over again."
Chu Junxi really dislikes Qin Wuji very much, how can a big man be so stubborn?
However, they were still a step late, and as soon as they walked to the door, Qin Wuji appeared. "It's better to come early than to come by chance, since we met, let's go together!" Qin Wuji also pulled Chu Junxi's pigtails, making Chu Junxi jump to his feet in anger.
Although he has a bad heart, Qin Wuji is still relatively familiar. There will be a fork in the road when you get out of the town, theoretically Qin Wuji should follow Qi Ran to the road to Beihe Village, but Qi Ran wants to send Chu Junxi home first, so he silently walked to Beihe Village by himself and went directly to Qi's house.
In the past, Qin Wuji would not be driven out after staying at the Qi family for long, but today is very strange. The lady uncharacteristically asked him to stay for a while, "Ah Ran said that he has something to tell you, you should wait for him to come back first." ”
"Madam, young master, have you figured it out?" Qin Wuji didn't know what their mother and son were up to, and tried to test it.
"If you don't want to, you can go back now." However, Qi Mu still didn't give him a good face.
So Qin Wuji didn't dare to say or ask, and silently waited for Qi Ran to come back.
Qi Ran wanted to change his face, his face that was originally happy before entering the house darkened after seeing Qin Wuji.
"My little master! You're not going to, are you? Didn't you tell me to stay? Why do you look disgusted when you see me now? "Qin Wuji is very aggrieved, and he wants to say it!
"Let me come, there is something for you to bring back." Qi Ran entered the back room, and when he came out, he held a letter in his hand and threw it to Qin Wuji, "This is written with our conditions, and if you want us to go back, then do what the letter says before inviting us." ”
Qin Wuji took the letter and looked around carefully, the envelope had been sealed with wax, as a child of a family, he would never sneak into other people's letters. It's just that there is something wrong with this envelope...... How do you feel greasy?
"Okay, then I'll leave for Beijing tomorrow and hand over the letter." Qin Wuji turned his head to look at Qi Mu again, "Madame, do you have anything to explain?" ”
"No, what Ah Ran means is what I mean, no need to say anything more." In fact, Qi Ran didn't tell her what was written in the letter, but she believed in her son, and she was afraid that the content of the letter would only make the person vomit blood, right?
"Is there anything else in the house that needs to be added? I still have some silver tickets on me, and the lady and the young master don't have to be polite to me. Although Qin Wuji felt that there was something wrong, he had been looking forward to going back for a long time. The conditions of the inn here are really poor, and it is not as spacious as the lower room in his own house, that is, the food is barely okay, otherwise he really can't survive.
"You don't need to, you better hurry up and go." They would accept those things before, all because of Chu Junxi, and felt that these things were owed to them by Qi Ran's father, but when Chu Junxi was not there, they still couldn't take Qin Wuji's money or things.
With the letter from Qi Ran, Qin Wuji left, he would never have thought that this letter would make him miserable.
At this time, the Chu family was already cooking on the fire, Chu's father, Chu's mother, and the two younger ones were in the kitchen, and Chu Junxi hid in the room alone and began to read the letter. Chu's father and Chu's mother are also very acquainted, and when their daughter is older, they can't stare at everything.
Xi'er, this is the first time I've written to you, and I have a lot to say, but I don't know where to start. I know I've been you off lately, and I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just haven't found the right opportunity to explain it yet. You may have guessed about my background, but it's not a big deal, and you remember that in my heart, I have no father for a long time, and my mother is the only one who raised me.
It is precisely because that person is too powerful that my mother has wanted me to keep a low profile since I was a child, especially not to get involved in the rights and wrongs of officialdom, which is why I refused to go to private school and gave up my good future. Hopefully, now that you explain, you can forgive me for my previous mistakes.
Recently, my so-called father sent for us, just because he needed an heir. My mother and I have never coveted power and wealth, and we will never go with him. Especially my mother, she is a persistent person, and since she has made a decision to give up at that time, she will not go back easily. Don't worry about that. I'm going to stay here and not go anywhere.
In the past six months, you and Aunt Chu Bochu have been taking care of our mother and son, if it weren't for you, my mother and I are afraid that we would have been at the end of our rope now, and that person would have had even more reason to force us to go back. For that, I would like to thank you.
Of course, I want to say more than that. Xi'er, I'm not sure what kind of feelings you have for me, think of me as a brother, a friend, or something else. And I know very well that you and I are not the same existence.
As for feelings, I never thought about it before you, my peers often dislike me, and I have never had hope for any woman. Originally, I wanted to wait until you were ready to talk to you, but now that things are going on, I have to change my plans.
You are a special girl, because of your courage and wisdom, but also because of your kindness and filial piety. In the eyes of a lover, you are beautiful from the outside to the heart. Every time I see your eyes, I feel like I'm addicted to them. I don't know what kind of person I am in your eyes.
In addition to explaining many recent events, this letter also wants to show you what is on my mind. Although my mother already has a plan, I still hope to wait for you to say yes before deciding on the matter. Or, if you haven't thought about it yet, I'm willing to wait. You're still young, and we're still here. - Qi Dye Book.
After reading the letter, Chu Junxi felt that his heart was not his own. Qi Ran explained those to himself, how could he suddenly confess? Although he looks small, the soul in his body is bigger than Qi Ran! More often than not, she treats Qi Ran as a friend......
But are they really just friends? Although she had always thought so, the situation had always deviated from the normal trajectory recently, especially after Qin Wuji appeared, she was very uneasy every day, for fear that they would leave just now.
If it's just a friend, although he will be reluctant, he should sincerely wish him to find his biological father and live a good life in the future. But she didn't want them to go now, and there was no reason.
A letter made Chu Junxi's heart confused, he will definitely give a reply to Qi Ran tomorrow, but what should he do when the time comes? Even she herself hasn't figured out her own heart, so how can she give someone the answer?
In fact, she should have noticed it a long time ago, in fact, not only Qi Dye, but even her cheap parents and Aunt Qi could see it, right? Otherwise, in such a society, how could he allow his daughter to have such a close relationship with a man?
