Chapter 10
In recent days, the matter of settling down and quitting the marriage has become a topic of conversation after dinner, and there are different opinions and rumors.
"It must be Fu Juncheng who feels that he has lost face, and deliberately said bad things behind your back to arrange you."
An Rui had heard of the gossip outside, but she didn't care, leaning on the guardrail, flipping through "War and Peace", smiling lightly, and said: "Rabid dogs bark, the more you pay attention to it, the more arrogant he becomes." ”
"You're really not angry at all?" Bai Siming asked curiously.
"Why should I be angry?" An Rui closed the book, raised her eyes to look at him, and said with a smile: "The rumors are small, the marriage is big, and now that the marriage has been withdrawn, it's too late for me to be happy, so why bother to be angry with boring people?" ”
"When you say that, it's ......"
The two of them were talking, laughing and laughing, Mrs. An had personally brought a plate of snacks, and when she saw a pair of little children, she smiled and quietly withdrew, walking along the corridor to the study.
Hearing the prestige, An Yidao saw his wife come in with a snack, took off his reading glasses, and deliberately dragged his jokes: "Mrs. Lao, Xiaosheng is so polite." ”
Mrs. An pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Look at you like this, you are not in shape when you are old, what do you want outsiders to see?" ”
Picking up the dim sum, An Yidao asked, "I just heard that Si Ming is here, why haven't I seen others?" ”
"As soon as he came, he went to talk to Rui'er." Mrs. An called the maid to pour tea and accompany her husband to eat snacks in the study.
After eating two pastries, Mrs. An helped An Yidao light a pipe, and said softly: "Rui'er has been spoiled by you and me since she was a child, and she has a bad temper, it is rare for Si Ming to treat her, and now that the marriage with the Fu family has been withdrawn, I want to ......"
After taking a puff of cigarette, An Yidao saw that his wife wanted to speak and stopped, understood in his heart, and said in a muffled voice: "Si Ming is a good boy, the two families know each other, and besides, we grew up watching him." After his father passed away, he was worried about the Bai family's business, this child, old and serious, he took care of the family and business in an orderly manner. ”
"Yes, a few years ago, my sister was half-revealing and mentioned the family matter to me, and I thought that the Fu family's family affairs had just retreated, so I could only vaguely pass it."
With a 'hmm' sound, An Yidao knocked his pipe in the ashtray a few times, thought for a moment, and replied: "Wait! ”
Jiangning Mansion, the autumn rain continued, Rong Chu stood under the cloister, absentmindedly listening to a group of old squires talking about the sacrificial festival, the slow autumn wind came to his face, with a chill, he couldn't help but reach out to catch the rain, and the shadow appeared in his mind again, thinking of the words 'goodbye to fate' she left, he smiled lightly and muttered to himself: Will she really come?
"Young Overseer, I wonder what you think?"
His thoughts were pulled back, and Rong Chu saw that everyone was waiting for a reply, and he couldn't help but be embarrassed, and coughed dryly: "Now that the war has been raging for many years, the situation is unstable, and the people are displaced. ”
As soon as the words fell, he saw a few old squires whispering, frowning slightly, "What, there is a difficulty?" ”
Wiping his hands with a towel, Rong Chu saw that the old squires looked at each other, and no one answered, so he immediately made a decision and said, "If there is no difficulty, then do it!" ”
"Yes!" The squires answered sparsely.
When everyone left, a person came out from behind the screen, and she applauded and laughed at the same time: "Young Overseer Rong is so powerful, you have halved the cost of a sentence, but it has cut off their wealth!" Aren't you afraid that they will unite with the yang and the yin and stumble on you behind your back? ”
He looked at Lin Muwan, and understood what she meant, but he didn't think so, smiled lightly, picked up the fish food plate, and walked to the edge of the pool to feed......
In the canopy of the cold night, a round of crescent moon hangs obliquely.
Picking up the teacup, Bai Siming looked at the ups and downs of the tea leaves, and asked softly: "In a few days, I am going to Jiangning Mansion, do you have anything you want to bring?" ”
When I first heard 'Jiang Ning', An Rui's heart was inexplicably 'chuckled', and when she thought of her appointment with him on the ninth day of the first month, she asked in a low voice: "The sacrificial festival is coming, at that time, it must be very lively, I, do I want to go with you?" ”
"This?" Bai Siming hesitated.
In the dim light, he stared at her, according to An Rui's light blue cheongsam embroidered with silver silk pattern, enchanting and charming, his eyes were like water, just looking at him with a flow of desire, Bai Siming felt his heart pounding, and couldn't help but pour An Rui into his arms and hugged him tightly.
With a blank face, An Rui leaned forward, because she was wearing high heels, she was slightly unsteady on her feet, and the sudden intimacy made her feel at a loss, thinking that the two had a deep friendship, but Bai Siming never made a transgression.
Today, what's wrong with him? An Rui struggled to get out of his embrace, but she didn't want to struggle more, the tighter Bai Siming hugged her, this feeling made her extremely strange to Bai Siming, but the faint aroma of tobacco on his body made her feel a little familiar, déjà vu? ...... day
