Thirty (4)
Although Wuliu Town is a small town, it is very lively, and it is only five o'clock, and there are bursts of shouting in the back alley. Shen Qiangrose was awakened by the noise, so she got up and got out of bed, and walked to the window, and saw that the alley was narrow and long, full of food vendors, and the heat was rising and swirling, as if it were a trace of moisture in the foggy morning.
She opened the window, the morning breeze was slightly cool, blowing on her face was extraordinarily refreshing, she stood silently for a moment, then got up and walked out of the bedroom, the outer room was a small hall, the nurse had already woken up, was sitting on the sofa reading a book, saw her come out and said, "Madam, you woke up so early?" ”
Shen Qiangrose was polite to her before asking, "When will you leave?" ”
The nurse smiled, took a glass of warm water and handed it over, "Mr. Feng said, Madame has been tired all the way and must have a good rest, so the trip date has been delayed by one day." ”
Shen Qiangrose thought about the driver, Mr. Feng, who had a lot of style in talking and doing things, so she nodded and said, "It's boring to stay in the house, let's go out for a walk." ”
The nurse naturally knew that pregnant people should move around more, but at the moment Shen Qiang's safety was the most important, so she said, "Madame is a month old now, so it is not appropriate to move around too much, so it is better to take a walk around." ”
Shen Qiangrose naturally heard the meaning of her words, so she smiled and nodded, went to the inner room to wash, and then changed into a loose gown, her face was not powdered, she just combed her hair casually, and walked out.
The nurse went out with her, and there was a row of stone guards at the door, and when she saw that she was dressed and that she was obviously going out, she said, "Madam, please go down and get ready." ”
Shen Qiangrose knew that this was the case, but she blamed herself for being too ignorant, so she said, "Don't bother too much, just take a walk nearby." ”
Although she had instructed her, the number of people accompanying her was still quite eye-catching, and the sentry posts on the periphery spread straight to the corner of the street, looking mighty, and she only felt uncomfortable when she saw this kind of pomp. The people on the street were all driven to the back and looked at the place in twos and threes.
She took a look, but lost interest, and saw that there was a café next to the hotel, although the decoration was simple, but the style was excellent, even if she stood outside, she could see the furnishings inside through the floor-to-ceiling windows, because it was early in the morning, only a few people sat down, very quiet.
She walked into the café, the nurse had been accompanying her, and the West Cub opened the door with great discernment, greeted them with a smile, and led them to a position with a great view, Shen Qiangrose couldn't drink coffee, so she ordered a glass of orange juice and a few pastries.
Seeing such a character, the West Cub naturally tried his best to please and blindly accept it. Shen Qiangrose looked out the window lazily, at this moment the sun gradually erupted out, sparkling on the sky, and many guards had already rushed over to guard the outside of the coffee shop.
She was feeling bored, but she saw a man on the opposite side walking slowly with a coffee cup, followed by two people, but the posture was like a star holding the moon, the sun was full of reflection in the hall, she couldn't see the person's appearance clearly.
The garrison had already stopped him, so he smiled and said to a handsome man, "Madam, don't you remember me?" ”
Shen Qiangrose looked at him in surprise, only faintly felt familiar, but couldn't remember where she had seen it, and was hesitating, the man smiled helplessly, "Madam, I'm Chen Muyang." ”
Only then did Shen Qiangrose react, fixed her gaze on his face, and saw him smiling warmly, her eyebrows soft. He waved his hand and retreated from the garrison, "This is the son of the Northland Chen Overseer, we have seen it before." ”
Chen Muyang walked over and saw her sitting there with a big belly, although her face was not powdered, it was very charming. He said, "Madam, I haven't seen you for a long time, and it seems that you are doing well." ”
He said with a smile: "When the child is born, I must give you a big gift." ”
Seeing him so polite, Shen Qiangrose knew that it was all about the scene, so she didn't shirk it, but just changed the topic, "It's really a coincidence, I can meet Mr. Chen here." ”
She took a fork and smeared the cream on the pastry, and asked casually, "I don't know what Mr. Chen is doing in the south?" ”
She knew that such a character would not easily come to the enemy gang, thinking that it was related to the war in the southland, and when she looked up at him, she saw him looking at herself thoughtfully, and his expression was a little unfathomable, which made her more and more uncertain about his intentions.
Seeing that he didn't mean to answer, she said, "Actually, I don't want to know these things, but I just asked on a whim, but I talked to Mr. Chen once before, and I admired your cleverness." Now that we're meeting again today, it's good to have a casual chat. ”
Chen Muyang couldn't help but smile when he saw her excuse herself like this, "Madam is really clever, in fact, there is nothing that can't be said, you only treat me as unfathomable, in fact, I came here to wait for someone." ”
Shen Qiangrose smiled when she heard him sell the guanzi, picked up the orange juice on the table and took a sip, looking at the scenery outside the window without speaking.
Chen Muyang pursed his lips and smiled, "It has nothing to do with the two places, it's just that I received a telegram two days ago that the daughter of our northland patrol envoy was going to Jingping, so I was waiting for her." ”
Shen Qiangrose turned her head to look at him, and the content published in that magazine naturally came to her mind, talking about Gu Dashuai's daughter, she paused, and asked curiously: "Is it that outstanding young woman?" ”
Chen Muyang saw that she was interested, so he smiled kindly, "It's her, speaking of which, that magazine is just an exaggeration, she is just a girl in her twenties, and it is not a good thing to be touted like this." ”
He took a sip of coffee, raised his eyes to look at her, and saw her sitting there quietly, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window behind her, and rows of camphor trees outside, which looked like a Western oil painting.
He knew that this Miss Shen had gone through many twists and turns along the way, and that she and Qi Shao were also in a true relationship of tribulation, so he couldn't help but feel a lot of pity when he thought about it.
After a pause, he said, "Madam, since we met by chance today, I think there are some things I should tell you." ”
Shen Qiangrose saw that his face was solemn, and he felt that there was something bad in his intuition, but she stabilized her mind and said, "Mr. Chen might as well speak up." ”
Chen Muyang looked at the nurse sitting next to him with a smile, and the meaning was obvious. Shen Qiangrose said, "You go over there and wait for me first." ”
The nurse was unwilling, and looked at Chen Muyang's gaze changing, as if she was afraid of what he would say. Shen Qiangrose became more and more curious, and couldn't help but cold her face, "I have something to say to Mr. Chen." ”
The nurse knew she couldn't interject, so she thought for a moment before getting up and stepping aside.
Chen Muyang chuckled, looked at the back of the nurse, and said meaningfully: "Qishao is really full of talents around him. ”
Seeing that Shen Qiangrose's face was pale, he straightened his attitude and said lightly: "It's not a secret, a few days ago, Su Dashuai sent an envoy to the north to discuss the marriage between the two parties. ”
He paused, couldn't help but look at her, and saw her raise her eyes in surprise, her fan-like eyelashes blinked in a panic, and almost subconsciously asked, "Who married whom?" ”
Chen Muyang looked at her pale face, those eyes were about to cry, the sunlight reflected in, and it looked more and more like autumn water, he suddenly couldn't bear to continue, just looked at her fixedly.
Seeing him like this, Shen Qiangrose seemed to point out, but the slightest uncertainty in her heart still made her ask softly: "Is it Qi Shao and that Miss Gu?" ”
After she finished asking, she only felt that all the strength in her body was suddenly withdrawn, and in a trance, she seemed to be unable to sit still, holding her arms tightly, and she didn't even realize that her nails were embedded in her skin.
Chen Muyang saw that her hands were trembling slightly, and even her shoulders were shaking, so he couldn't help but say, "Madam...... I didn't say this intentionally, but now that Gu Dashuai has agreed to the marriage, this matter is already a certainty. ”
Shen Qiangrose only felt a buzzing in her ears, and she didn't hear what he was saying clearly at all, she just raised her eyes in a hurry and fell into his concerned eyes, as if she pitied her.
And she looked at herself through his eyes, and felt pitiful and helpless. At this moment, it was as if everyone's eyes were fixed on her, making her involuntarily want to escape.
Chen Muyang saw that she was so depressed, so he said guiltily: "Madam, I know the relationship between you and Qishao, and now this matter has not been electrified to the whole country, so there should be a turnaround." ”
Shen Qiangrose shook her head, she naturally understood in her heart that the south was too passive now, originally sitting on half of the country, but now it was constantly in internal troubles, if it was not to the point of helplessness, how could the north be mixed in. It's just that something happened to her, no matter how reason persuaded herself, she couldn't think about it in her heart, in the end, she was a woman, and she couldn't stand it after receiving such a blow.
She couldn't say a word at this time, just stood up slowly, and walked outside step by step, Chen Muyang saw her shaky appearance, and wanted to chase after her, but was blocked by the garrison, he couldn't care about it, his eyes followed her, and he saw her walking slowly step by step, as if she was unconscious.
I opened my mouth, but I couldn't say anything.
The nurse saw that things were not good, so she hurried over to help her, but she gently shook her away, the corners of her lips moved, and she whispered, "I can walk myself." ”
She raised her eyes and saw that there was plenty of sunlight outside, and the streets were sparsely populated, and the old buildings stood in front of her, as if they were like a city, and she walked aimlessly, only feeling like a homeless person, as if she did not know where to go for a moment, and did not know where to go.
Standing there blankly, with mixed feelings in his heart, he couldn't accept such a fact, but when he thought about it, it was not the first time he had married someone else, and she had never been the wife she was marrying, and in the genealogy of the Su family, she was just a woman with no name!
But she knew that it was not easy for the two of them to come all the way, like a jar of wine made from bitter water, and finally waited until they could drink it with honey, but after tasting it, it was still bitter.
