Guo Xiaoxiao's fingers holding the stove suddenly moved, and he didn't speak. Xiaolan stepped forward and wanted to take over the stove, but as soon as she touched it, Guo Xiaoxiao immediately stood up.

"I ...... I don't want to change it yet, so stay there. ”

Xiaolan stepped back a few points, lowered her head and didn't say anything more.

Guo Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Zhiyuan, and finally spoke: "I haven't seen him for a few days, and my cousin is getting thinner and thinner." ”

He still turned his back to Guo Xiaoxiao and said coldly: "Yes, it's not as good as you, and now your face is still beautiful." ”

Xiaolan wanted to defend Guo Xiaoxiao, but was scolded back by Guo Xiaoxiao with a look.

The first thing he saw when he came in was her, but he didn't dare to stay on her, and he took it back in just a second.

Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Why are you sneering at me like this? ”

"Isn't it you, cynicist?" He asked rhetorically, his tone still cold.

"Why did you and I become like this?"

"Isn't that what you want to see?"

"When do I want to see this?"

"When you're in love with another man."

"What a love affair! How can you say something so ugly? She rose from her chair in shock.

Xiaolan said: "Young Master Cousin, you misunderstood Miss......"

"Shut up, there's no place for you to talk here." He scolded.

"I'm not here to talk to you today." Guo Xiaoxiao sighed, "If you can't get used to me, I'll go." ”

But she should have walked a few steps, and he suddenly turned around and said, "You go, walk cleanly, I won't be upset if I can't see it." ”

"yes." Guo Xiaoxiao suddenly choked up, "I knew that others didn't want to see me, so I shouldn't have come over." ”

She walked out of the hall with steps, Xiaolan followed behind, and said anxiously: "Young Master Cousin, that's the method of agitation, deliberately angry with you to go, you should understand." ”

Her footsteps did not stop: "Radical generals, even if I know that he is radical generals, I don't want to be under the same roof with him anymore." Cold words, talking with guns and sticks, where is a little bit of a good attitude! ”

"Miss, don't be too anxious, you go back and talk to the young master again, he will understand."

"Don't go!" Guo Xiaoxiao is about to arrive at the gate of Jiangfu, "He can do whatever he likes, so I don't want to get in his way!" ”

"Miss, if you leave without saying a word, it will not end well for the lord and the lady. Our two families are relatives after all, and it is not polite to throw away on the Laba Festival. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped, feeling that Xiaolan's words made some sense, she took a deep breath and said, "What kind of evil did I create!" ”

The two then returned to the hall, and the maid of the Jiang Mansion saw Guo Xiaoxiao and Jiang Zhiyuan having a quarrel, and hurriedly went to the Mei Courtyard to tell Lord Jiang. Mrs. Jiang remained silent, only said that the meal was ready, and asked Master Guo and Mrs. Guo to go to the hall to eat.

When Lord Jiang, Master Guo, and Mrs. Guo returned to the hall, they saw Jiang Zhiyuan sitting on a chair with a depressed look.

Jiang Dadao: "What about Xiaoxiao? ”

Jiang Zhiyuan did not answer, his eyes glazed.

"Talk?"

Just when Master Jiang was anxious, Guo Xiaoxiao came in: "Uncle." ”

She lifted the stove and said, "The water in the stove is cold, so Xiao Xiao went to the kitchen to change the water." ”

"Just leave these things to the next person." Lord Jiang scolded the maid standing next to him again, "What are you two doing to eat, the eldest lady has something to order, have you all run to hide lazy?" ”

The two maids hurriedly knelt down.

"Uncle, don't blame them, I'm going to go myself. It's stuffy in the house, and it's good to go out for a walk. ”

Lord Jiang was originally pretending, Guo Xiaoxiao gave him the stairs, and Lord Jiang casually reprimanded a few words and sent the maids to retreat.

Master Guo smiled and urged Master Jiang to hurry up and serve the food. Master Jiang hurriedly asked people to inform the kitchen.

This meal was another uncomfortable meal, Guo Xiaoxiao finished it silently, and Xiaolan drooled at the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table, but Guo Xiaoxiao did not move a chopstick.

Mr. Guo drank and chatted with Master Jiang during the banquet, and after eating for a long time, Guo Xiaoxiao really couldn't sit down, so he went to Meiyuan for a walk.

At this time, the snow outside the house had stopped, Xiaolan tied Guo Xiaoxiao's cloak, and Guo Xiaoxiao asked her to retreat.

Guo Xiaoxiao stood on the porch, her nose was red from the wind, but she almost ignored the cold on her body, and felt sorry for herself in the snow.

She was thinking that she had done it to herself to get to where she is now. It was her hesitation, and it was her hanging from him that would give the sea rose a chance.

Isn't there a lesson from the past? Why aren't you awake yet?

She was scolding herself, and she didn't make a clear break with Yuan Shaocheng, so that she couldn't argue with confidence. She complained that she was selfish and selfish, often putting on a show, and didn't take into account Jiang Zhiyuan's thoughts.

Now she's sober, but is it too late?

The banquet between Master Guo and Master Jiang lasted until the evening, and the Guo family left leisurely in the carriage. There were only two people left in the hall, Master Jiang and Jiang Zhiyuan.

"Have you said everything that should be said?" Master Jiang asked.

Jiang Zhiyuan sat on the stool, poured himself a glass of wine, and did not reply.

"I'll ask you."

Jiang Zhiyuan took a sip of wine and said casually: "I said it." ”

"It's all broken?"

"It's broken."

Before Lord Jiang asked him to go to the study, he told him about Guo Xiaoxiao. Lord Jiang asked him to break off the relationship between men and women with Guo Xiaoxiao, Jiang Zhiyuan was angry, nodded, and agreed.

"Xiao Xiao, this child, I grew up, he looks good and has a good personality, and I like this child very much in my heart." Master Jiang persuaded, "However, no matter how close you are, it's better not to overstep the relationship between brothers and sisters." ”

Jiang Zhiyuan poured another glass of wine with a sullen head.

"In the future, if you treat him as a sister, what do you do, your father won't say anything about you." Master Jiang pressed his hand holding the wine glass, "You, don't be so sad, you are confused all day long, what do you look like!" ”

"I've already broken off with her, what else do you want me to do?" He roared, looking up at his father.

"Ever since you quarreled with her, you haven't thought about tea and dinner when you come back, and you've been displaced." Master Jiang stood up suddenly, "Don't know, I thought you were reading and forgetting to eat!" ”

Master Jiang pointed to his nose and said, "You said you were for a woman, as for it?" Is it worth it? Look at the way you look now, your face is haggard, your eyes are dark, and your body is emaciated. Are you still a man for the sake of a woman, making your body look like this? ”

Jiang Zhiyuan swallowed his saliva and talked about the old thing: "The year my mother died, didn't my father not think about tea and dinner, and forgot to sleep and eat?" My father is no longer an official, and he doesn't go out of the door, is my father like a man at that time? ”

"You!"

"It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, just because they ...... Just because I haven't reached the sad place! ”

"Your mother and I are married, and people say that a husband and wife are a hundred days a day, and of course I can't forget your mother. However, you and Xiao Xiao are just cousins, and you played together for a while when you were young, why do you miss her! ”

"What's the point of talking about it now!" Jiang Zhiyuan directly took the wine jar on the table, stood up and swayed it and drank it.

Lord Jiang sighed and said, "The wedding date between you and Miss Haisan has been set, just after the Chinese New Year. ”

"What did you say?" Jiang Zhiyuan's eyes widened suddenly, like an electric shock, "When did I say I wanted to marry Sea Rose?" ”

"Lord Hai's letter was originally arrived at the end of November, but I have been pressing it and have not informed you about it. Now that you and Xiao Xiao have broken off, I wrote back to Hai Daren, agreeing to hold a wedding after the New Year and pick up Miss Hai San from Suzhou. ”

Jiang Zhiyuan was stunned, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he suddenly realized: "I know!" I know! ”

He staggered a few steps and glared at Lord Jiang: "You did it on purpose!" Do you know that I quarreled with Xiao Xiao, so I took advantage of my annoyance with her and asked me to say those ugly things to her, and then marry the Hai family? ”

Master Jiang did not speak.

"Father, for the sake of your own interests in officialdom, you have to pay the price of your son's happiness?"

"Haisan girl is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, has excellent appearance, and is a good daughter-in-law."

"Father, Xiao Xiao is your niece!"

"Xiaoxiao, of course I love her, but I love her, and I don't have to be my daughter-in-law to be hurt."

"Boom!" Jiang Zhiyuan smashed the wine jar in his hand to the side and walked quickly towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Master Jiang shouted, "It's useless for you to chase it out now, I have ordered the post post to send the letter out of Yangzhou City." ”

Jiang Zhiyuan listened carefully, and then rushed out like an arrow.

The carriage of the Guo family also walked to the street, today is the Laba Festival, every family is celebrating the festival, and the weather is cold, so the street is sparsely populated.

The ground was covered with thick snow, and Jiang Zhiyuan chased it out along the marks left by the wheel.

Because of the strong wind, Datang didn't dare to drive the horse too fast. Jiang Zhiyuan is a practicing family on weekdays, and after running for about a quarter of an hour, he finally saw the shadow of the Guo family's carriage.

"Xiaoxiao! Guo Xiaoxiao! Jiang Zhiyuan shouted.

Guo Xiaoxiao seemed to hear someone calling her, just like opening the car window to see. But before his hand was raised, he was pressed down by Mrs. Guo. Mrs. Guo held her hand and signaled her not to panic, perhaps because she was hallucinating.

Master Guo was a little drunk after eating, and he was resting with his eyes closed. Datang and Xiaolan clearly heard someone calling behind the car, but the master in the carriage didn't speak, so they didn't dare to make a sound, so they could only act as if they didn't hear anything.

Jiang Zhiyuan ran out of breath, and chased for another quarter of an hour, but the Guo family's carriage never stopped. Jiang Zhiyuan was worried that the letter had been sent out of Yangzhou City, so he immediately bought a fast horse from the horse dealer on the street and galloped out of the city.

At this time, it was almost dark, and Jiang Zhiyuan thought that the post post could not walk at night, and would definitely find a place to rest, so Jiang Zhiyuan ran non-stop towards the nearest post station to Yangzhou City.
