Chapter 34: A Polite Rejection of the Marriage Contract

"Tiankuo, as long as you can save the incense, you can agree." The water vein bit his lip vigorously, and his shoulders trembled. Her mind was in turmoil. Of course, she was reluctant to marry Lan Tiankuo, but she really wanted to save Yanxiang. Weighing the two, of course, the life of cigarettes is more important than one's own happiness. Yanxiang gave her the life-saving elixir and gave her a chance to survive, of course, she can also give up her feelings for Yanxiang.

Chu Tiankuo was stunned on the spot, he looked at the water vein fixedly, and couldn't help but admire her a little more in his heart. She is not only talented and beautiful, but also courageous, always aware of the general situation and taking the overall situation into account. Imagine for others everywhere, can control their emotions with reason, and is a rare strange woman in the world.

"I have my own plans for this." Chu Tiankuo came back to his senses, and his eyes returned to his usual peaceful look.

Chu Tiankuo stood still and knocked on the door outside the Lan Shen Doctor's house.

"Come in." Doctor Lan's cold voice floated out of the room.

Chu Tiankuo slowly pushed open the door and walked in.

I saw Doctor Lan sitting at a wooden table. Behind him stood a tall cabinet with all kinds of herbs stored, divided into categories, and exuding a strong medicinal fragrance. However, Chu Tiankuo, who had always been sensitive to fragrance, still smelled a faint aroma of fat powder from the medicinal fragrance in the room, which was exactly the same as the fragrance on Lan Ayayu's body. He concluded that Lan Aya was standing behind the cabinet.

Chu Tiankuo looked around boredly, and didn't intend to speak first.

"Chu Tiankuo, how are you thinking about it? If you promise to marry Yu'er, I will cure the poison of cigarette incense. Doctor Lan looked at Chu Tiankuo for a long time, and then opened his mouth to break the silence.

Chu Tiankuo smiled slightly: "Doctor Lan, if I'm not mistaken, you said before that you can't cure the poison on the cigarette incense." ”

Chu Tiankuo took a few steps forward, approaching the cabinet, Chu Tiankuo's hearing has always been sharp, and he heard a slight sound from behind the cabinet. This confirmed his thoughts even more, and Lan Ayayu was there listening to their conversation.

"Chu Tiankuo, come and sit. Things are different now. Yu'er takes a fancy to you, if you marry her, we will be a family. Of course, I will spare no effort to save your junior sister. Doctor Lan was afraid that he would really come over, so he hurriedly called him to come and sit.

Chu Tiankuo sat over and said suspiciously: "How do I know, what you said is true?" ”

Doctor Lan said slowly: "I am the junior brother of the fortune teller, and the master gave each of us an elixir back then. I still keep that elixir. I'm ashamed to say that I have never studied the mystery of this elixir. ”

Chu Tiankuo's heart was as light as letting go of a thousand catties of burden. Chu Tiankuo looked from the window, the rain stopped, and a beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky.

Surprise flashed in Chu Tiankuo's eyes, but his face was silent.

He had always been cautious, and after thinking about it, he asked, "With such a precious thing, why is Feng Nanyang's predecessor willing to give away cigarettes?" ”

Doctor Lan was expressionless, and his tone was flat: "My senior brother has a strange temperament, maybe he developed the method of making the elixir, or maybe the incense is related to him." He changed his words: "I will give you the elixir as a dowry for Yu'er, I don't know what you think?" ”

Chu Tiankuo said in a sad tone: "Of course I want to save the incense. However, I don't want to ruin Ayatama with a lifetime of happiness. A talented woman like her, who is beautiful and proficient in medical skills, should find a better wishful husband. I'm a suspect now, and I can't afford to climb high. Chu Tiankuo was cautious, for fear that Lan Ayayu would have a knot.

Chu Tiankuo felt that the person behind the cabinet shook slightly.

Doctor Lan kindly reminded: "This matter is related to the life and death of Yanxiang, Chu Tiankuo, you should consider it carefully." ”

"I won't trade Ayatama's happiness for the life of cigarettes." Chu Tiankuo politely refused.

Lan Ayayu, who was hiding behind the cabinet, heard this and ran out crying.

Chu Tiankuo chased him out.

Doctor Lan shook his head and sighed.

He performed light skills, leaped in front of Lan Ayayu, and stretched out his hand to block Lan Ayayu's way.

Lan Ayayu glared at him resentfully and turned to leave.

Chu Tiankuo hurriedly stopped her from behind: "Ayayu, you listen to me." Lan Ayayu set her feet. Chu Tiankuo smiled bitterly: "You are so beautiful and have a gentle personality. You will meet someone who is a better fit for you than I am. Actually, Brother Chi Le is good. ”

Lan Aya Yu wiped her tears, and Pear Blossom said with rain: "I don't like him, what I like is you." ”

Chu Tiankuo ignored her confession and said calmly: "I have known Chi Le for many years, and I know him well. He is known as the prodigal son of Fengcheng, he may have been attentive before, but since he met you, his mind has been on you. He is absolutely genuine to you. I'm carrying a lawsuit for my life now, and if you follow me, you will suffer. ”

Lan Aya knew that no matter what Chu Tiankuo said or how he said it, there was only one meaning he wanted to express, that is, he didn't love himself. An unaccepted relationship needs not to be sad, but time, a time that can be used to forget. A deeply wounded heart needs not sympathy, but understanding. Lan Aya Yu is not a fool, she has long understood that Chu Tiankuo does not have her in her heart. It's just that even if she understands it in her heart, she still wants to try it and work hard, and she has no regrets.

The unhappiness in her heart gradually faded. However, death must also be understood. Who does Chu Tiankuo like? Who exactly did she lose to?

Lan Aya Yu suddenly leaned over to Chu Tiankuo.

At this moment, although her face is like a peach blossom, she is as cold as frost.

She looked at Chu Tiankuo coldly and said, "Tiankuo, since you don't have me in your heart, then I'll ask you for Sister Yanxiang." Do you love Shui Mai in your heart, or her? ”

Chu Tiankuo replied without thinking about it: "I have always regarded cigarettes as my sister. ”

After a moment of silence, Lan Ayayu pondered for a moment, and still spoke: "Oh? That's not what she thinks in her heart. She is as deep as the sea and infatuated with you. Do you know that these days, she hides in her room, forgetting to sleep and eat, just to embroider silk handkerchiefs for you? If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have flareed up so quickly. ”

Chu Tiankuo was like waking up from a dream.

An indescribable feeling welled up in my heart.

His heart was like a blockage of a stone, and like a small stream blocked by dead branches and leaves, and it could not flow for a while.

His face pulled down at once, and it tightened as if it had been brushed with a layer of paste. It turned out that Yanxiang fancied Ruyi Langjun was him, not Lan Ayashi. Since he was a child, Yanxiang has always said that he wants to marry him when he grows up, and he has always been a deaf ear. He cared for her like a brother loved his sister, took care of her, played with her, and taught her martial arts. In the same family for ten years, he took good care of the cigarette incense, and the cigarette incense also thanked and admired him.

He always thought that Yanxiang was a child, but he didn't expect her to be so serious.

However, he is so contradictory.
