Xu Huai'an looked at An Qingming, An Qingming's eyes looked at him without evasion, and when she saw him, she frowned slightly, as if she was dissatisfied with his hesitation.

"Miss Ann...... Qing Ming," Xu Huai'an changed his title, his tone helpless, "Did you always know?" ”

Know his mind.

An Qingming is not a fool, of course she knows.

But she never said it directly.

An Qingming didn't know what was wrong with her, she thought about what she wanted to do, and she didn't want to do things she wasn't sure of, but when she saw Xu Huai'an, her persistence and principles didn't seem to have any effect, and she let out the straightforward and stubborn self in her heart.

"I'm not a lady, and I'm not as simple as you expect. You should have seen that I am in charge of the An family, and I must do what I should do and what I should not do, and even some methods are spurned by others. ”

Xu Huaian frowned, he didn't like An Qingming to speak like this: "I never thought you were a little girl in the greenhouse who didn't know anything about the world, what I saw was such a you." I just ......"

He paused: "...... I feel that you have been wronged. ”

The An family is a shrewd fox from top to bottom, and there are even more open guns and hidden arrows in the shopping mall, how much did An Qingming have to suffer to forge an invulnerable armor for himself?

Xu Huaian smiled slightly: "I thought before, I haven't married for so many years, you haven't been married, and you will be friends for the rest of your life, is it also white." ”

An Qingming also laughed: "If you think like this, Mrs. Xu is afraid that she will be angry." ”

"It doesn't matter what she does, if she wants to marry herself, she will marry her." He said it wantonly and awe-inspiring, and he was very unfilial.

An Qingming stood in the dark night, she only saw that she was dyed black, but Xu Huaian was more concerned about whether she was afraid in such a lonely night.

The fragrance of wine wafted in the air, An Qingming's eyelashes trembled, she lowered her head and looked at the wine glass, the wine in the glass was mellow and intoxicating, obviously not staining the wine, but An Qingming was a little drunk.

She is like a peony blooming in the ice and snow, stubbornly showing her petals in the face of wind, frost, rain and snow, and the seemingly delicate petals mercilessly cut through the cold air, she hurts herself, but also protects herself - in an inviolable posture.

But Xu Huai'an was stunned to get in, kiss her petals, and want to build a thatched house for her, shielding herself from the wind and rain without knowing the rules.

It's so funny, and it's too incredible.

The people of the Xu Mansion were stunned to find that their son-in-law seemed to be a different person these days, he didn't go out to mess around, and he didn't want to go out of the yard. Staying alone in the study to read, Xu Xianling thought he was on a whim at first, and he didn't necessarily have any bad water in his stomach. As a result, a few days passed, and Xu Huaian really didn't do anything, just quietly reading books, occasionally writing and painting, as if he had changed people.

Even Mrs. Xu was stunned after the initial excitement - such a sudden change of temperament is really not like the piece of meat that fell from her stomach, could it be possessed by some demon? Shouldn't I find a master to exorcise evil spirits?

Mrs. Xu changed her way and asked him if he had encountered any major setbacks, and enlightened him that there was nothing in life that he could not overcome.

Xu Huai'an couldn't cry or laugh: "Mother, you scolded me when I didn't read, and you were worried when I started to read books, it was really difficult to be a son." ”

Mrs. Xu asked, "Are you really okay?" ”

"Since you are so relieved, I have no choice but to go to 'Wen Yulou' to take a turn to show my filial piety."

Mrs. Xu pointed her fingertips on his forehead, feeling that this kind of annoying energy was still her son did not run away, so Mrs. Xu left satisfied, leaving Xu Huai'an alone to continue to chant poetry and paint.

Xu Huai'an stepped out of the door again half a month later, Zhou Xu came to the door, the always suave Young Master Zhou looked a little haggard, he was still dressed like a peacock in the open screen, but the scumbag was blue, and the eyes were blue, and he couldn't hide his haggardness.

Xu Huai'an was amazed: "Where are you fooling around?" How? Isn't the dream makeup girl a showman? ”

But unexpectedly, Zhou Xu didn't come forward to refute Xu Huai'an with a smile this time, nor did he hook his neck and fool around with him, he just glanced at him lightly, and he couldn't see any emotion.

Xu Huai'an, who had been friends with him for many years, also restrained his smile when he saw this, and asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Xu wiped his face: "You accompany me to the Tiger Dart Bureau, I don't know how to face her." ”

This "she" must not be an old dart head.

Xu Huaian didn't say a word, went to change his clothes first, and went out with Zhou Xu.

On the way to the Tiger Dart Bureau, Zhou Xu slowly explained the cause and effect of the matter.

In this small half a month, Zhou Xu, who has always been inseparable from Xu Huai'an, did not come to Xu Huai'an to spend time drinking together, and there was a reason why Cheng ordered a batch of good fabrics for the Zhou family, and the identity of the owner was prominent, Zhou Xu deliberately delivered it to the door in person, and at the same time, Master Zhou entrusted the Tiger Dart Bureau to escort the darts, but at the same time, the people of the Tiger Dart Bureau went out to escort the darts, leaving only Liu Ruyu and a senior brother at home, the senior brother housekeeper, Liu Ruyu volunteered to take the order.

Liu Ruyu followed the dart master at the age of fourteen, basically did not encounter any major events, Liu Ruyu's kung fu is also first-class, and the senior brother went to her.

But this was the time when something really happened.

The city is mountainous, a few years ago there was a flood, the family was ruined and the refugees went up the mountain to do the mountain bandits, strong and strong martial arts are good, Zhou Xu and his party encountered an ambush when they crossed the mountain, Zhou Xu couldn't lift his shoulders and couldn't resist, all relied on Liu Ruyu to protect, one was not protected, obliquely stabbed a sharp knife, Zhou Xu couldn't avoid it, seeing that he was about to poke into the chest, Liu Ruyu's whip was still wrapped around another person, and he hurriedly withdrew the long whip and wrapped it around the blade, the tip of the knife was offset by half a minute, but it stabbed into Liu Ruyu's shoulder.

The oozing blood soaked her red clothes, fainting into dark traces, Zhou Xu's whole person fell into a panic, watching Liu Ruyu fight with injuries, and in the end they didn't know how they won him.

Liu Ruyu took care of the wound herself, Zhou Xu asked her if she was seriously injured, she raised her eyebrows, and said, "Can I see this injury?" Do you think anyone is as useless as you! ”

This is the first time, Zhou Xu has no exit to refute her.

Liu Ruyu refused to go home, this was her dart, and she had to watch the successful completion of this trip in order to turn around. Zhou Xu is very good at persuading people, but he can't persuade Liu Ruyu, so he left her to go.

In the end, the silk was safely delivered to the master's hand, and the master's family kept them for a few more days, but Zhou Xu refused, shirked in every possible way, and hurried back.

On the way back, I encountered heavy rain, I was in the wilderness, I couldn't find a place to shelter from the rain, the only carriage was made by Zhou Xu, Liu Ruyu rode a horse, and I couldn't see any injuries.

Zhou Xu couldn't say anything to invite her to get into the carriage to avoid the rain, and twisted his brows and frowned and said, "You...... I was alone in the car, and the place was huge. ”

Liu Ruyu was draped in a hat and turned her head to look at him with a smile: "What?" Looking for someone to accompany you? I'm afraid of thunder. ”

Zhou Xu knew that Liu Ruyu was making fun of him, but he didn't say anything, and responded casually: "Yes, yes, Miss Liu is condescending?" ”

Liu Ruyu laughed a few times and patted the shoulder of a dart master beside her: "Go, accompany Young Master Zhou, save him from being afraid." ”

The dart master turned his head, the tiger's back was strong and strong, and he was as thick as two Zhou Xu, and he closed the carriage curtain angrily.

After listening to Zhou Xu's narration, Xu Huaian said in disbelief: "Then you let the girl get drenched in the rain all night, and lie comfortably in the carriage all the way?" ”

This description sounded prickly, which made Zhou Xu very uncomfortable, and he struggled to explain: "It's her who refuses to get in the car, and you know the relationship between the two of us...... I've said more, she's going to lose her temper again. ”

"Heh," Xu Huai'an sneered, "I really don't know what you've learned in 'Wen Yulou' over the years, the girl from 'Wen Yulou' didn't kick you out purely for the sake of money." ”

Zhou Xu refuted him: "If you are so powerful, if you are so powerful, I haven't seen you marry Miss An home for so many years." ”

Xu Huai'an was dumbfounded.

So the two people with their own hearts stopped talking, and went all the way to the Tiger Dart Bureau, and it was the shirtless dart master who came out to greet them, who was very bold, and led them to the backyard.

"Xiaoyu, she's fine, a small injury, it's okay to take care of it for two days, you still have a trip, it's really a shame not to go."

It was Zhou Xu who couldn't go.

He has always been clever and forgetful to be polite to others, and followed the dart master to the backyard tremblingly, Xu Huaian looked at his tense side face and couldn't help laughing.

But his smile vanished as he reached the backyard.

In the backyard martial arts training ground, there were two people.

The woman on the left is dressed in red, and the woman on the right is in a white suit, both of them have their hair tied up high, without powder, with a whip on the left and a sword on the right.

It was Liu Ruyu and An Qingming.

This is the first time Xu Huai'an has seen such An Qingming, and she has taken off the burden of the eldest girl of the An family, and the sun is shining on her face, not the gentle smile that seems to be engraved in the past, but a bright and flamboyant smile, as if the sky is clear after the rain, and the sky is clear.

Unrecognizable.

The two fought against each other, and it was difficult to distinguish between the winners and losers.

Liu Ruyu withdrew the long whip, and An Qingming pulled a sword flower.

"You can't do it, I see that I haven't practiced well recently, and I still have injuries, so I can have a draw with you." Liu Ruyu shouted.

An Qingming flicked the sword body: "Can't you see that I am deliberately letting you?" I'm not so shameless when I'm really injured with you. ”

This picture of arguing with tongues is a bit girly.

Liu Ruyu took a sip: "When are you going to have your face." ”

"I think my face is not bad, and I am reluctant not to." An Qingming raised her eyebrows.

Liu Ruyu made a vomiting motion, and then the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

Turning his head, he was about to get off the martial arts training platform, and he saw two people standing below, looking at them expressionlessly, and when he saw them looking over, he instantly squeezed out a smile that was not embarrassing or embarrassing.

At that moment, the momentum around An Qingming instantly changed to a person, and the bright and wanton girl on the martial arts training platform was gone, replaced by the gentle and humble An family girl, like the blazing light around the sun was retracted in an instant, hidden behind the clouds, and emitting a little bit of crystal light.

Xu Huaian frowned.

She was always hidden in her shell in front of him, no different from in front of other inconsequential people.

Knowing that this was normal, he still couldn't suppress his sadness, like a sour and astringent fruit that had been peeled, squeezed with juice, and sprinkled in his heart.

"When did you get here?" Liu Ruyu wiped a handful of sweat with her sleeve and walked down.

"Just now," Zhou Xu didn't know how to reply, Liu Ruyu was too calm, they rarely talked so calmly, it seemed that he wouldn't open his mouth without shouting or arguing, so he had to go to see An Qingming, "It turns out that the eldest girl also knows martial arts." ”

"I've learned a little," few people know about her martial arts, and it's normal for Zhou Xu not to know, "Flower fists and embroidered legs for self-defense." ”

can have a tie with Liu Ruyu, then this flower fist embroidered leg is too powerful.
