Huo Rong stood in front of the study window, watched Changying walk out, and then came back and sat down.

Tong Qi coughed at the door: "Master, you should have some medicine on this hand, right?" ”

Only then did he move his gaze to his right palm, only to see that the entire bandaged part of the palm had been soaked with blood, and there were still a few traces of blood coming out.

Tong Qi stepped forward to cut the gauze, looked at the wound and couldn't help sighing, and then cleaned and applied medicine.

The damp cloth scraped the peeled flesh, and it hurt a little in the end.

He frowned and said, "Am I too impatient?" ”

Tong Qi stopped and said nothing.

Huo Rong has always been calm, and it is rare to get out of control like this today.

After all, after hearing about the Qian family's accident, he was able to remain extremely calm, and did not think that Shen Linlang had ambitions to stay by his side.

He didn't answer, and Huo Rong didn't ask, but said, "She has a headache, you write a letter to Qianqing Palace and ask for some better medicine to send over." ”

……

Changying walked to the door of Su's house and remembered that she was in a trance just now, and actually left Tan Shuyin at the Xu family, and she just left.

was in a state of confusion, so he simply waited until another day to explain, and went back to the house first.

Fan Zhu under the door couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the blood on her hands: "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Only then did she recall Fang Cai Huo Rong's previous injury to his hand, counting that the injury had been several days, it was said that it was almost healed, and there was so much blood, which showed how much effort it took to do so.

Even if the marriage book exists, it will not be more than half a month's "fate" at most, I don't know what he is more real?

The long tassel snorted lightly and entered the house.

Tan Shuyin and the others all entered Mrs. Xu's hospital, and after the doctor explained the injury, everyone was relieved and comforted Mrs. Xu.

On this day, the Xu family was full of visitors, and in the evening, Tan Shao came back, and after hearing about it, he also came to visit.

Xu Lan took the opportunity to tell Changying about his intention to hand over official business to Changying for the time being, Tan Shao thought for a moment, and finally did not object.

Su Xinrong stayed at Xu's house until before dinner, and Pang Zi instigated her, taking advantage of this opportunity to behave in front of Mrs. Xu.

As a mother, it is impossible for Mrs. Xu not to feel sorry for her son, but her good upbringing has made her calm and calm, and when everyone has dispersed, she will also go to Xu Lan's room with the lamp in her hand.

Xu Lan slept for two hours after taking the medicine, his face was still pale, but his spirit looked a little better.

Mrs. Xu tucked the quilt for him, looked at him and said, "I came back with an injury, and you are still dancing like this?" ”

Xu Lan raised his lips at his mother: "My son is not filial, which makes my mother worried." ”

Mrs. Xu stroked his hair and said softly: "I'm also used to it, and I haven't stopped worrying about it since I married your father." It's all my own choice, who can I blame?

"Now these days, I don't have to go into battle to fight, I don't have to worry about life and death every day, I already have to thank God for a thousand thanks."

Xu Lan put his face next to his mother's palm, obedient like a cat.

Mrs. Xu looked at him, and suddenly said, "The General Shen who came next morning is the one you told you to send loquat over last time, right?" ”

Xu Lan nodded, subconsciously wanted to sit up, but he had no intention of touching the wound, and the pain made him fall down immediately.

"Excited about what?" Mrs. Xu complained to him, "I've just started to make a start." ”

"What does Mother think of Changying?" Xu Lan's eyes were shining.

"How's that?" Mrs. Xu faintly.

Xu Lan smiled and said, "It's no wonder that my son didn't make it clear." Mother, I have known Changying for more than two years, we get along almost day and night, and I know her very well as a person. If I could be with her, I would feel that everything I did was worth it. ”

Mrs. Xu lit a stick of incense, slowly inserted it on the incense burner, and said: "I have eyes, and I can see that from the fact that she returned the incense you sent, at least she is an assertive child."

"The appearance is also first-class, and in terms of etiquette, although we don't see much, I can't find anything wrong. - What about your family background? ”

Xu Lan's expression was a little solemn. "She doesn't have a family," he said. ”

Mrs. Xu's eyes paused slightly: "No family? ”

Xu Lan nodded, and said, "But I don't think it's important." She has so many good qualities—"

"But the Xu family will feel very important." Mrs. Xu is also very solemn, "There are many girls with good quality, and the marriage that is right is more stable."

"Especially since you are the son of the sect, you have a heavier responsibility, and you also need to rely on the woman's strength to stabilize the family.

"Although General Shen is excellent, she lacks support, obviously, she is not suitable to be the wife of the Xu family."

Xu Lan frowned: "Things are man-made, I think these can be overcome." Even if she lacks support, I can go the extra mile to meet your expectations. ”

Mrs. Xu snorted lightly: "But an unbalanced effort will ruin the marriage." No matter how good the original intention is, once the two sides are not equal, it will end in failure. ”

"How can you be sure that my efforts are not equal?" Xu Lan, who tightened his chin, replied.

Mrs. Xu leisurely picked up the tea: "Because she doesn't have you in her heart." ”

She took a sip and looked over again: "She's so smart, if she has you in her heart, how could she ignore your efforts and send someone to return the incense you sent?" How could you run into me on the road and not look like you wanted to attract my attention in the slightest? ”

"She just hasn't thought about marriage yet." Xu Lan was silent for a moment and said, "She didn't just reject me, she didn't intend to accept anyone. ”

Even Huo Rong was the same, he believed.

Mrs. Xu glanced at him: "Since she hasn't thought about it yet, isn't it useless for you to tell me this?" Let's heal first. ”

……

Xu Lan did not insist on arguing with Mrs. Xu.

As Mrs. Xu said, the reality that Changying's heart is not on him is there, and it is useless for him to have a quarrel with Mrs. Xu.

But as long as Changying didn't pick anyone first, he finally felt that he still had a chance.

It's a long time coming.

……

Changying lay on the bed for a long time and did not fall asleep. The sudden identity of "Shen Linlang" made her toss and turn in the end.

But after all, the matter of investigating tenants can only wait for Zi Yan and them to come back, she remembered the news that Xu Lan had discovered, and the study was busy until midnight.

Wu's mother brought her in with rice balls and urged her to rest early: "I can't sleep well in the first place, and if I go to bed late, I will be even more sleepless." ”

Changying ate the rice balls, thought about it and asked her: "Does Mother Wu remember when I was recuperating at a tenant family in Tongzhou?" ”

Mother Wu nodded: "Naturally, I remember that time, we were in a hurry, we didn't see anyone for more than ten days, and we didn't dare to publicize it, and my wife went to ask the young master of the Luo family about the side, only to know that the girl was bullied by the girl of the Qin family."

"Shizi - Hou Ye was afraid that his wife would be angry, and the Qin family theory that he went by himself made Miss Qin kneel on the ground and kowtow a hundred or ten heads, and put down the words, if something happened to the girl, she would have to pay for her life. - I heard that there was a large scar on his forehead later. ”
