Chapter 20: Shizi's brother-in-law

originally thought that after a cry, Gongbo Xin would be in a better mood and less resistant to Zhezhe, but the next day, she still stayed in the house and didn't go out.

Zhezhe was in the opposite room, under the window, put a chair, sat on it, and watched the movement behind the screen.

Since yesterday afternoon, someone has come over and tirelessly invited the princess, but she was rejected by her maid.

What can I do if I don't refuse? She didn't come out, besides, this body is really weak.

Zhezhe pondered for a night, her sister looked like she was angry, although she knew that she couldn't escape her fate and couldn't do it herself, but she didn't want to accept it, so after a long time, her body and mind were damaged, and she was a heart disease.

It seems that Gongbo Xin and Wang Weizhen are really in love.

Zhezhe knew that his cousin's name was Wei Zhen, and he knew that his surname was Wang. It's just that when she came here, he was already dead, and he hadn't seen him as a person, only heard them mention it.

Xin Xin's appearance is not bad, and she is not dull when she speaks, so I think the person she likes will not be too bad.

Zhezhe held the copper bell around his waist in his hand and looked at the screen in a daze.

If only she could talk to the ghosts, she could ask her father-in-law directly.

What the hell is going on?

Xin Xin said that Zhezhe did not tell her about the assassination of Gongbo Zhezhe and Wei Zhen, and she did not know. The information on the notice is fake, so what is the truth?

Was the assassin really a spy of the Wei State?

What is the reason why Gongbo Zhezhe and Wei Zhen are targeted? It also happened to be on the day when Gongbo Xin didn't show up? Can't say that the elders in the family still make an appointment alone?

Zhezhe shook his head, he couldn't figure it out, he didn't sleep well all night, his head was broken, and there was no result.

In the 21st century, she should have watched more brain-burning anime and books such as Detective Conan and Sherlock Holmes to sharpen her ability to solve crimes, and now she won't think so hard.

Alas, why do I want to see those loves, fantasy, and urban romances? In this one-day crossing, no plot that has been seen is useful!

Zhezhe was sighing here, and Ah Ru next to her pulled her back to reality, "Miss, do you still want to make a purse today?" ”

"Do," why don't you do it, it's so boring, it's okay to learn it, Zhezhe hung the bell back on his waist, took the embroidery frame, and twisted the needle to watch Aru demonstrate.

Actually, she didn't want to do this, but she didn't know why, so the princess asked the maid to stop her and didn't allow her to go to her. Originally, she thought that although the relationship between the two of them was not as good as before, how to say it, they could still be friends, and she couldn't figure it out if it was so stiff.

The time of the day finally lasted until the afternoon, and Zhezhe was bored in this room, and it was another day. The embroidery thing is really abrasive, Zhezhe's fingers are swollen, and he doesn't embroider well.

Sure enough, she couldn't do this kind of careful and focused thing.

When it was cool in the afternoon, the wind was blowing outside, and Zhezhe looked at the sky, like a dark cloud.

Is it going to rain?

I don't know why, I suddenly thought of the lotus pond, Zhezhe realized later, no, at that time in the lotus pond, she also said that she was going to pick lotus pods to eat! It's been a month here, how did you forget about eating lotus pods?

I'm really annoyed to death, but at this time, I remember that Yin Si is not here these days, the master is busy, and the view is full of Miss Gongzi, and he can't move around. Want to pick a lotus pod? I'm afraid it's impossible, right?

Zhezhe was angry for a while, and asked Ah Wan to find Ku Rong, and said that he wanted to eat lotus pods, and could he find someone to pick lotus pods.

Ah Wan went for a while, and when she came back, the whole person was sneaky, Zhezhe hadn't asked her yet, had she seen Ku Rong, did the words arrive, and how did Ku Rong come back? She herself pulled Zhezhe, avoided Aru, and secretly whispered in her ear:

"Miss, someone wants to see you."

Someone, who? Zhezhe heard it in a fog, "Do I recognize it?" ”

"It was the emperor's marriage - the future uncle," Ah Wan stumbled and said, "I went to look for the chief of the Kurong Dao, but I didn't see it, but I met the young master on the way back, and the young master remembered me, and asked me to pass on a message and ask the young lady if I could see it." ”

"Me?" Zhezhe pointed to himself, see me? The uncle who gave the marriage, could it be that he was the eldest brother-in-law of the prince, and he couldn't see Xin Xin, so he came to him again and wanted to ask him to help? It's really big, yesterday Xin Xin said that she didn't like him, so resistant, she couldn't help if she wanted to!

"Miss, I've brought it here, see you or not, you can make your own decision!" Ah Wan said.

"Should I see it?" Zhezhe pointed to the room where Xin Xin was, "I'm going, will my sister be angry?" ”

"What's so angry about this, it's all married, I can't hide from it, I always have to get married and live together," Ah Wan didn't understand why her own young lady was worried about whether the eldest lady would be angry, "Whether it's the eldest lady or the young lady, the slave maid hopes that the two young ladies can live happily in the future, respect each other with their uncle, raise their eyebrows, don't have trouble, and entangle with others." ”

"I know this," Zhezhe also persuaded Xin Xin yesterday, the thing that is sure cannot be changed, and he can't seek death, why don't you want to open up, accept it, and let yourself live a better life?

It would be good if she could convince Xinxin, the key is that she doesn't know how to talk about it. The reason is clear, she doesn't know if her cousin is good or not, she can't talk nonsense when people leave, she doesn't know this future brother-in-law, she doesn't know what advantages and benefits she can talk about, how to persuade her!

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Zhezhe's mind, yes, she can first go to meet this future brother-in-law for Xin Xin, help her meet him well, see if there are any advantages, you can talk about it, comfort Xin Xin.

Besides, didn't he make an appointment to meet himself at this time and wanted to help himself?

"Ah Wan," Zhezhe took Ah Wan's arm, "you take me to meet this son!" ”

"Okay," Ah Wan nodded, but still explained, "Miss, this is not the son of the world, it is Young Master Liang." ”

"Oh," Zhezhe walked away for a while, a little strange, alas, no, isn't it the eldest brother-in-law of the prince? How do you call the young master, isn't it a person?

I'm not going to meet my betrothed partner, is it? In an instant, Zhezhe's sweat hung on his head. She remembered what Yin Si said, I would kill him! If you are entangled with him.

This, if this is really the third young master who gave the marriage, this meeting will cost someone's life!

Zhezhe's legs couldn't walk, "Awan, you say-"

"Miss, it's here," so fast, not a few steps out of the door, Ah Wan said that she was still very conscious of retreating.

Zhezhe's hand stretched out there, and he didn't have time to ask clearly, this young master, which future uncle is it? Is it Xin Xin's son, or her third young master who has never met?

Don't dare to look up and see what is going on with people? Zhezhe felt that his body was trembling a little, and he only dared to stiffen, pretending to be calm, and turned his eyes around, looking at the surroundings.

This is a small corner behind a temple, a towering plane tree on the side, surrounded by stone bricks, and a wall behind it.

"Miss Gongbo," the young master behind him walked over and saluted not far away, "In Xia Liang Zhecheng, yes-"

This voice is so familiar, it seems that I have heard it somewhere, and the name is the same, Zhezhe slowly turned his face to look, a string was tense in his heart, and he finally put it down, and as soon as his spirit relaxed, he opened his mouth and interrupted the human speech, "I remember you, we have met before!" ”

After saying that, I regretted it, covered my mouth, I really wanted to slap myself, how did I open my mouth to talk to a few people, I got used to it, I couldn't help it, I could talk to anyone.

Silence is golden, and woe comes from the mouth! Brain that doesn't have a long memory.

"Oh-um-that-" Liang Zhecheng was uncomfortable when she said this, and began to stutter again, "You, you-remember-remember me?" ”

"Remember," Zhezhe nodded, but after thinking about it, he opened his mouth, and then pretended to be silent, isn't it not good, the other party is the son of the world, he still practices etiquette, honestly reply, just don't say much.

"I-" Liang Zhecheng scratched his head, a little embarrassed, his face was flushed, he thought she didn't remember him, he was in a hurry that day, he stammered in his speech, and thought he scared her away, but when he looked at it today, he shouldn't have scared her that day, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt last time." ”

"It's me who was rude," Zhezhe remembered his inspection plan, and was busy reorganizing his posture and mentality, and Shi Shiran saluted, dignified and generous.

"No, it's me," Liang Zhecheng waved his hand, his face turned even redder, and her solemn return salute made him even more uncomfortable. I thought she wouldn't come out to meet, but when he came here, he asked her master, the Taoist chief in this Taoist temple, Kurong, obviously said that she is now cultivating and is not suitable for guests.

Originally, in the afternoon, Shizi invited someone to get together for tea and chess, but he shirked it because he was unwell. Originally, I was going to go to the head of the Kurong Dao to ask how the situation of Gongbo Zhezhe was now.

The people in the family said that his fiancΓ©e was sick because of the evil spirit, and after this year, he met the master of this Taoist temple to get better, and now the master of the temple has accepted her as a disciple and let her practice here to ward off disasters and exorcise evil spirits for her.

Originally, he didn't have any idea about this marriage, but that day, by chance, he met the second son and the eldest lady of the imperial historian's family, listened to what they said, had some doubts, chased after her, and met her by accident.

The girl's innocent appearance and beautiful and agile figure broke into his world without defense.

He hadn't seen her before, but at the banquet at that time, he looked at her twice from afar, and only thought that she was talented and admirable, and because he was young at that time and didn't understand the relationship between men and women, he didn't have any distractions.

At that time, the marriage was given, and the holy decree was announced, although the family didn't say anything, but he knew that everyone in the city knew it, Gongbo Zhezhe was crazy, the once talented woman was gone, and no one knew what it looked like now. This marriage is glorious on the surface, but in fact, no one thinks that Gongbo Zhezhe can be worthy of him again.

Although he has been frail and sickly since he was a child, there has never been a shortage of rumors in the city, saying that he will not live to be twenty years old, chewing on him as a medicine jar and a short-lived ghost.

The entire Xiangguo Mansion, sighing for this marriage, sighed, and on the second day, his father went to the fold, saying that he had told his fortune for him, and his health was not good on weekdays, and there could be no more twists and turns in three years, and the marriage should be postponed in the future. It just so happened that the uncle's family also handed over the fold, saying that Zhezhe's health was not very good, and the two families acquiesced to it after three years.

The Gongbo family wants to wait for Gongbo Zhezhe to recover, and Xiangguofu is consuming, they don't think that Gongbo Zhezhe can live for so long, although their third young master is weak and tight, but they always say that Gongbo Zhezhe will be a short-lived person.

Liang Zhecheng didn't have any thoughts about this, and he didn't think too much about it. I thought that he didn't care about this marriage, and he didn't care what the prince was doing.

But why, when I met her, the words were intermittent, my face was red, my ears were hot, and my heart was beating non-stop?

For the first time, Liang Zhecheng went back to the house and thought about it for a long time behind closed doors. He felt that he seemed to have a love for her, and it seemed like he wasn't, but he just thought she was good-looking. After struggling for many days, he was woken up by his brother and said that he must have lovesickness.

Lovesickness, falling in love at first sight, sketching her appearance in her mind every day, annoyed by the gaffes of the day, reimagined countless times, if it was to do it all over again, he would definitely do better than this time.

Now, they finally met for the second time, but he, just like the first time, stumbled, couldn't say a word in his head, and didn't know how to say it, so as not to make her feel weird.

I think I'm different from my two elder brothers, I dislike them on weekdays, and I'm not open-minded, but now that I look at myself, I'm not even smart. In the future, I will no longer be self-righteous and think of myself as smart.

"You-" Zhezhe looked at him with his head down, his face red, his brows and his thoughtful appearance, this brother-in-law is so shy, he blushed and stammered before he could speak, he was trying to say how to speak, right?

Just now, Ah Wan called him the young master, and said that he was not the son of the world, but he was not the son of the world!

It's really strange, why is it clear that he is the son of the world, and he still wants the maid to call the young master? Zhezhe thought of Xin Xin in his mind, and patted his head, I know, because Xin Xin is next door, and the wall has ears! She is still so reluctant now, she reported herself to the family and said that the son of the world, it is indeed not good, the young master is vague, very good!

Zhezhe felt that he was very smart, and then shouted as well, "Young Master, what are you thinking?" ”

Liang Sicheng hurriedly shook his head, there were no three hundred taels of silver here, "I'm not thinking about you." ”

"I know," Zhezhe had a look on his face that I understand you, you must be thinking about my sister, right? I saw it last time, you don't have to be shy. I know, you are a reserved person who can't speak, I understand, you understand, it's fine.

"It's not-" Liang Zhecheng blushed, stepped on the ground, and kept pressing footprints on the spot, not because he didn't want to, but he was really thinking about you.

"You're for--" Zhezhe's mind kept turning, the eldest brother-in-law was so shy, he couldn't say a lot of things too bluntly, but it wasn't good not to say it, he felt like he had no topic to talk about. Zhezhe pondered for a while, remembered the matter of sending a purse on Qixi Festival, and immediately understood it in his heart, "You came here for the purse of Qixi Festival, right?" ”

"Purse?" Liang Zhecheng's whole person froze, this purse, did she say that she was going to make a purse for him on Qixi Festival? It's embarrassing to see each other twice.

Could it be that she also likes herself, she ran away without saying a word that day, not because she was scared away by him, but because she was shy, she listened to her name, and the girl's family was in love, and it was not easy to say it directly, so she was shy and embarrassed, so she left.

"Purse," Zhezhe nodded, a little sympathetic in her heart, this time she took a good look at this brother-in-law, although he is not as good-looking as Yinsi, but he has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and he is very energetic! At first glance, he is a reliable small man, and his appearance is not bad, but he is shy and awkward. It shouldn't be rare to see such a shy son, right?

"You-" Liang Zhecheng pointed to himself, "send me?" ”

"Don't worry," Zhezhe nodded, "I'll let my sister do it with me in the past few days, she did a good job, you know, in the capital, her female celebrity did the best, it won't be bad." ”

This Liang Zhecheng knew, he was very embarrassed, he didn't expect that his unrequited love this month would respond so quickly, and he would give himself a purse for Qixi Festival, which was really flattering.

"It doesn't matter if you don't do it well," he has heard, Gongbo Zhezhe is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the female red is hard to say, the people in his family are all practicing martial arts, one by one, five big and three coarse, for the female red, there are no requirements, as long as you have a heart, you can look good or not.

"It will definitely do well," Zhezhe assured, I saw that you were a good person, and my sister would definitely not suffer if she followed you, "You wait!" ”

Liang Zhecheng scratched his head, blushed, his heart was beating ordinary, he was overjoyed, what should he do, he was thinking about it alone before, and this time, he didn't expect to see him again, let alone think about exchanging tokens on Qixi Festival, she said this, but she was embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Gongbo Zhezhe dared to love and hate so much, and took the initiative to mention this matter, Liang Zhecheng was shy and regretted at the same time, he should have been bold just now, and let a girl talk about this kind of thing, it would be too manly to lose face.

"I'll prepare a hairpin as a return gift," Liang Zhecheng twitched his fingers, shy like a little girl.

"That's nature," isn't it necessary, this custom, Zhezhe knows.

The two men were silent for a long time.

"I heard from your maid, do you want to eat lotus pods?" Liang Zhecheng, who didn't know what to say, remembered what Awan said just now, and immediately promised, "You wait, I'll buy it for you." ”

As he spoke, the whole person flew away on the ground, leaving Zhezhe alone in the same place to sigh.

It's amazing, there really is light power in this world, envy, if only I would too. I thought of what Ku Rong said before that he wanted to teach him Dao Fa Immortal Arts, but half a year has passed, and nothing has been taught.

When these days have passed, you must ask, when will it be taught? Is this Dao Immortal Technique the same as martial arts, cool and powerful.

It's kind of fun to think about it.

Before returning to the house, Zhezhe had to sigh again, this brother-in-law is good, a man of action, he does what he says, and he is a good person, but in fact, Xin Xin followed him, and he did not necessarily suffer. She is so sad and sad, and no one wants to see her, so how can she directly deny that others are not good?

Maybe if you see it, you won't be so entangled, get along, maybe you will understand his good, anyway, this marriage is finalized, instead of being sad, why not let yourself live happily?
