Chapter Thirty-Six: Brave as Never Before

On that full moon night with light clouds and light winds, Xu Sicong wanted to express all the strong love hidden in his heart on today's special day.

On the occasion of the Shangyuan Festival, it would be a wonderful thing to be able to be with your "dream lover" at this time.

For this reason, Xu Sicong, who has always been bad at words and neglected to dress up, also began to pay attention to his appearance.

I saw him open the wardrobe with a smile on his face, and then took out a bag with a little dust on the surface.

It was a black-gray coarse cloth wrapper, and its surface was very old, and it looked like it was some years old.

Xu Sicong took out the burden and put it on the table, and then sat aside and stared at the bag for a while, as if he was hesitating whether to open it.

From this point of view, there must be some important object in this, if not, why does Xu Sicong cherish it so much? So much so that he has kept it with him for many years, even when he was hungry and cold, he never pawned it.

In fact, this is not a rare treasure, but a cotton robe that Xu Sicong's mother sewed for him many years ago.

Xu Sicong's family has been poor since he was a child, and he often lacks clothes and wears less, so Xu Sicong does not have a few new clothes to change throughout the year. In this regard, Mother Xu saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart.

How many parents in the world don't want their children to be happy? However, there was really no extra money at home for him to wear.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve that year, in order to make Xu Sicong happy, Xu's mother made this cotton robe for him as a New Year's gift.

Xu Sicong was overjoyed when he saw this, but he was not willing to wear this cotton robe, but put it into this bag as a treasure and treasured it to this day.

In fact, Xu Sicong's heart is very clear. Where is there any kind kind alms, it is obvious that his parents are saving money in private behind his back, so they saved this bit of silver from between his teeth to make him a dress.

After many years, my parents are no longer alive. To this day, Xu Sicong is the only one who can still handle this cotton robe.

However, when Xu Sicong opened the burden with a heavy heart, he found that the cotton robe had become moldy.

Seeing this, Xu Sicong couldn't help but feel a little lost.

From this point of view, tonight is a must-go. I can only wait for tomorrow morning to get up and dry the cotton robe to get rid of its musty smell, and then go to see Sui Yuexuan.

So Xu Sicong put down the cotton robe in his hand, intending to go and investigate first, so as not to see Yu Tang suddenly tomorrow.

But the result of the incident was unexpected by Xu Sicong, and for this reason, he almost died and returned to the West.

It turned out that on the night of the Lantern Festival, Xu Sicong quietly came to Sui Yuexuan's door, but he was unable to enter because of the loss of face.

When he was young, the hesitant Xu Sicong heard footsteps not far away, so he hurriedly hid in the dark to avoid being discovered and causing misunderstandings.

It didn't take long for Sui Yuanwai to come to Sui Yuexuan's door. The two exchanged moments in front of the door before entering the house and closing the door.

Seeing this, Xu Sicong subconsciously walked over and leaned outside the door to eavesdrop on their conversation.

In the process, Xu Sicong happened to hear Sui Yuanwai say that he came here to say goodbye to Sui Yuexuan.

It turned out that Sui Yuanwai had already selected a few so-called husbands for Sui Yuexuan, and he came here today to ask Sui Yuexuan if he liked it, and he would make arrangements as soon as possible.

After Xu Sicong heard about this outside the house, his heart immediately cooled for a while. He still swore that he wanted to show his heart to Sui Yuexuan, but he never thought that people already had a belonging.

At this point, Xu Sicong no longer had the courage to continue listening, so he left with tears in his eyes.

That night, Xu Sicong tossed and turned and couldn't sleep peacefully, thinking that he would give it a try no matter what.

So, early the next morning, Xu Sicong put on the cotton robe that he was never willing to wear, and mustered up the courage to go to find Sui Yuexuan.

At this moment, Sui Yuexuan was cooking in the kitchen. Xu Sicong saw that there was no one else around, so he walked in quickly.

Sui Yuexuan saw Xu Sicong coming over in a hurry, and mistakenly thought that he was going to come here to find something to eat, and the meal was not ready at this time, so Sui Yuexuan specially cooked a bowl of Lantern Festival for him that he didn't finish last night.

Xu Sicong was naturally happy when he saw that Sui Yuexuan personally cooked the Lantern Festival for him and brought it over.

Even though the Lantern Festival had just come out of the pot, Xu Sicong still tasted it at the first time, and it tasted excellent.

It is worth mentioning that these Lantern Festivals are all made by Sui Yuexuan himself, which are more precious than those bought in the bazaar.

Seeing this situation, Xu Sicong mistakenly thought that Sui Yuexuan also had a good impression of him, so he decided to muster up the courage to fight.

Originally, Xu Sicong thought that this matter would not go well, but who expected that it would not go well, it was simply a veto.

Sui Yuexuan didn't mean that at all, all of this was just Xu Sicong's love illusion.

At this moment, Xu Sicong's heart was broken. Just now, he was smiling, but now he is full of gloomy clouds. It's still that bowl of Lantern Festival, just now it was so sweet, and now it's so bitter to death. The answers are different, the results are different.

In fact, Xu Sicong should have expected all this a long time ago, but he didn't know much about Sui Yuexuan's situation, so it would cause Xu Sicong to fall into this embarrassing and helpless tragic situation.

Sui Yuexuan was born in a wealthy family for generations, and has developed an extremely arrogant character since he was a child. Don't look at her usual easy-going and knowledgeable, in fact, she is also a person who likes to be lonely and self-appreciative.

Sui Yuexuan has received all kinds of due education since he was a child, and he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Let's not talk about anything else, just talking about the requirements of mate selection is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

No matter who it is, as long as there is a little bit of substandard, she refuses to date, let alone talk about marriage.

The other half she wants doesn't have to be a royal relative or a famous family, but it must be a talented person who understands the amorous style, and his talent must at least be above her.

From this point of view, Xu Sicong's unsuccessful courtship should also be reasonable, after all, Xu Sicong is only a shallow learner, and he is really far from the standard of the ideal husband in Sui Yuexuan's mind.

Seeing that there was no room for turning things around, Xu Sicong left the kitchen in embarrassment, and then disappeared.

I saw the heartbroken Xu Sicong running to the market alone, and then quickly took off the cotton robe, and then threw it heavily on the ground and stepped on it a few times.

While stepping on it, he said to himself: "What's the use, what's the use, what's the use!" ”

Just when Xu Sicong stepped on the cotton robe with his foot, he didn't know that he was suddenly hit by something.

Seeing this, Xu Sicong, who was angry, grabbed the cotton robe angrily, and then threw it in the corner of the wall very casually, and then hurried to the lake.

Sui Yuexuan thought that Xu Sicong was just joking with herself, and she didn't really like her. Unexpectedly, just as they were about to have breakfast, something unexpected happened.

Sui Yuanwai and others saw that Xu Sicong did not come to eat on time, so they sent someone to look for it, but the guy found a note on the table in Xu Sicong's room.

It reads: Yuexuan, come to the lake and see me, and you will die at night.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly came back and informed Sui Yuexuan of the incident, and Sui Yuexuan realized that something was wrong and immediately got up and rushed to the lake where she had been with Xu Sicong.

Just as Sui Yuexuan hurriedly went out, she saw that the cotton robe Xu Sicong was wearing in the morning was discarded aside.

Seeing this, Sui Yuexuan immediately stepped forward to pick it up and shook the dirt on it.

At this moment, a small card suddenly fell out of the cotton robe. I think this thing has long been sewn into the clothes, but Xu Sicong has never taken it seriously.

Sui Yuexuan took a closer look and found that this thing was actually a silver coin letter issued by the "Ruyi Cabinet Workshop", which was as much as 1,000 taels.

Where did Xu Sicong get these so many silver taels, presumably he himself is not very clear. Or he didn't know that there was such a letter at all, maybe this was the legacy left to him by Xu Sicong's parents before they died.

Sui Yuexuan saw that the situation was urgent, so he hurriedly rushed to the lake at a trot.

At this moment, the surface of the lake is frozen due to the cold weather.

Walking to the front of the lake, Sui Yuexuan saw that Xu Sicong was already standing on the ice of the lake, intending to seek death, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Sicong! Why are you so troubled? If you have something to say, don't do anything stupid! Although Sui Yuexuan tried his best to persuade on the shore, Xu Sicong still never stopped.

"You're here, I can see you before I die, my wish is enough, and I don't have any regrets in this life." After saying this, Xu Sicong turned around and walked towards the middle of the lake.

At this moment, the ice surface in the middle of the lake has cracked to varying degrees because it cannot bear Xu Sicong's own weight, and the situation is extremely critical.

Sui Yuexuan saw that Xu Sicong insisted on seeking death, and resolutely stepped on the ice slowly regardless of his personal safety, intending to prevent the tragedy from happening.

I saw Sui Yuexuan cautiously and slowly stepped forward, and persuaded him: "You must not think about it, if you have three long and two short, what will you do with the 'memorial horse'!" ”

The so-called memorial horse is the horse that Xu Sicong asked Xu Ziyan for a few months ago, and Sui Yuexuan named Xu Sicong "Memorial".

Xu Sicong saw that Sui Yuexuan was risking his life and walked towards him, so he hurriedly stopped: "Yuexuan, it's too dangerous here, don't come here!" ”

"Sicong, I understand your thoughts, but the two of us are really not suitable, there are still many good girls in the world, I am not worthy of you acting like this!"

After hearing this, Xu Sicong calmed down and said earnestly: "Yuexuan, I am a person who is slow to react, slow to move, and I can't say anything sweet. At this point, I just want to say one thing to you. Don't go, I love you! ”

Before this, Sui Yuexuan had heard countless sweet words, but there were very few that could really touch her heart.

Now, Xu Sicong used affectionate eyes and extremely sincere words to touch Sui Yuexuan's heart with just six words.

Just as Sui Yuexuan was about to respond to this, the ice under the feet of the two was about to collapse because they couldn't bear the weight of the two of them.

At this critical juncture, Xu Sicong rushed forward without saying a word, and quickly took her out of danger in time.

I saw Xu Sicong quickly and quickly wrap his right arm around Sui Yuexuan's waist and save her from the ice that was about to collapse.

When Xu Sicong's right arm firmly hugged Sui Yuexuan's slender waist, and then took her whole person into his arms, Sui Yuexuan's long flowing hair gently brushed Xu Sicong's right arm.

The slight sound of the black hair gently sliding over the sleeves and the bursts of fragrance blowing in the cold wind made people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

At this moment, they were deeply affectionate, and they looked at each other for a long time, and no one could stop that warm scene from happening.

I saw Sui Yuexuan shyly close her eyes to show her acquiescence, and Xu Sicong couldn't help but let go of his usual style of keeping to himself and accepted Sui Yuexuan's good intentions.

Then, Xu Sicong mustered up the courage to gently put his lips to Sui Yuexuan's mouth, and kissed him affectionately and slowly and gently.

The white and bright surface of the lake and the endless snowy scenery are bright and beautiful, quiet and elegant, making people feel as if they are in a dream, which is very wonderful.

At this point, the two finally have their own home, no longer confused, and the day of eternal union seems to be just around the corner.
