Chapter 12: Marry Him
The backyard is rarely let in, and this is a small world that belongs to the old man and the old lady.
The courtyard is very quiet and quiet, whether it is the fence, the wooden door, or the decoration of the corner, the pavilion in the artificial lake, all of them are ancient and antique structures, and there is a picturesque picture of Jiangnan at a glance.
They walked past the rose-strewn and pink-colored walls, and sat upright in a pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Sister Pei, who was clever next to the old lady, served tea with her hands and feet, nodded and withdrew.
Jiang Scarlet is good at making tea, maybe her heart is not enough, she lacks time and social tempering, she doesn't like to drink pure tea, but likes the honey flower tea she brews.
The old lady is so careful and considerate, she naturally understands the girl's preferences, and seeing that she is satisfied and smiles lightly, the old lady is also happy.
"Scarlet girl." The two chatted for a while, and the old lady straightened her face.
Jiang Scarlet put down the teacup, feeling a little inducted in her heart.
Although she didn't know what the old lady was going to say, her heartbeat would not lie, and she could smell that this must be something that made the old lady feel embarrassed and she didn't like it.
The old lady and the old man treated her like a kiss, and they knew that she would not refuse even if it was a severed head, so they would never ask her for anything.
This time, it probably really made them decide.
She smiled slightly, nodded, and said with a clear and transparent smile, "Aunt Zhu, you say, I'll listen." ”
"Old man...... Probably, there is only a lot of time left. ”
Jiang Scarlet's head buzzed, and the tip of her heart went numb, as if she didn't expect that what the old lady said was this sad and explosive news.
"Don't be sad, don't you see that Aunt Zhu can still talk to you about this. Aunt Zhu and the old man are not young, everyone has this day, and there is no need to feel sad and cry. The old lady reached out and held the girl's cold hand, patted the back of her hand gently, and said softly, "Do you know what your old man is most worried about?" ”
Aunt Zhu looked at her kindly with a quiet gaze.
Jiang Crimson trembled, his eyes were slightly red, and his eyes were sour and unbearable.
It's false to say that she is not sad, there are not many people in this world who care about her, and the only old man who feels sorry for her is her family, and she is her scarlet hope.
"Alas, the old man and I can't rest assured that you and Chi'er." The old lady paused, looked at the scarlet girl, and said softly: "Don't look at Chi'er as a cold and unkind person, in fact, he is very insecure in his heart." There are not many people he cares about, and there are few people he can trust, so I and the old man can rest assured. ”
Smart as Jiang Crimson, I understand something.
The old lady looked at the scarlet girl who didn't speak, and sighed slightly, "The old man wants Chi'er to marry you." ”
Marry...... Mu Night Pool?
Jiang Scarlet had a trace of tears in his big eyes, and he opened them wide, as if he thought that he had misheard the old lady's words, and he didn't blink his eyes when he asked for verification.
The old lady Du Qingzhu stretched out her hand and gently patted the slightly trembling shoulder of the scarlet girl, the small shoulder looked very fragile and so thin that it was distressing.
They didn't know that the scarlet girl pretended to be indifferent in the Mu family and endured it because of them.
Without the two of them, this girl would have already spread her wings and fly high, and she would be able to stay away from the Mu family and this upper circle, how could it be so unbearable as those who were calculated and secretly scolded.
The scarlet girl is a good child with her own opinions and her own life plan, if it weren't for the fact that they were not worried about Chi'er, they would not be cruel enough to ask the scarlet girl to hand over her life to her grandson and the Mu family.
Besides, the relationship between the scarlet girl and her grandson is like a debt owed in a previous life, and water and fire are incompatible.
Once she has a real relationship with the Mu family, the scarlet girl will be bound in this life, which is not only excessive, but also makes the scarlet girl give up her dreams and life.
"It doesn't matter if you don't agree, your old man can't open his mouth, Aunt Zhu is just to tell you, so as not to be secretly blamed in front of you when you get it." The old lady didn't ask the scarlet girl to agree, and gently comforted, "Don't worry, this is what we secretly planned, it doesn't matter if you don't agree, it's okay if you don't agree, it's the two of us who are embarrassed by the scarlet girl, and Chi'er doesn't know yet." ”
"He ......"
