In the moonlight, Zi Jue took Mo Chou and Bang Qing for a walk in the garden, but the three of them carried lanterns but did not light them; But the weather was really nice tonight, and you didn't need a lantern to see the garden clearly. (天天Chinese.)

Even if the moonlight is just right, the heavenly garden in winter is very bleak, and the shadows of the trees are reflected on the ground and twisted like ghosts to choose people to eat, which makes people's hearts a little hairy; What's more, no one will come to the garden at this hour, and the silence makes people feel a little panicked.

Bang Qing couldn't help but take Mo Chou's hand, her eyes looked around from time to time, as if some ghost was about to pounce out at any time; Mo Chou didn't look like anything had changed, but when Bang Qing held her hand, she knew that she was also scared, because her hands were cold.

Only Zi Jue walked easily, as if coming to the garden was her idea, she was really interested in coming to the garden to play, from time to time pulling a branch, or withered yellow grass or something in her hands to play: she used to be afraid of the dark, but she was afraid that the night would still come, and the long alley still had to be walked, and she knew very well that no one would come to help her.

Now she was not afraid, for she had known that men were much more terrible than ghosts; And now she is not even afraid of people, will she be afraid of ghosts?

Mo Chou may have been too nervous, but finally broke the peace in the garden: "Girl, why did you promise that woman?" She really hated Han, so she refused to call her and referred to her instead.

Zi Jue smiled slightly: "Why don't you eat something delicious?" ”

Mo Chou sighed weakly, now she knows her master's temper, if the girl doesn't want to say something, you just ask in vain. And the girl is indeed a bit greedy but not a fool, and will not take herself for the sake of eating: "She will definitely not be well-hearted." ”

"I just want to make sure she doesn't poison me, or that she doesn't do anything with what she eats. Then I have no reason to refuse. Unless someone explicitly tells me to go, I can't go. Zi Jue glanced at Mo Chou and threw away a small branch in his hand. He reached out and folded a section in his hand, and whipped both sides indiscriminately.

Mo Chou was silent for a while before saying, "Madame must already know, but the maid thinks that Madame will not stop the girl; It's not just the lady in the house who is paying attention to the girl, and tomorrow's meal is definitely not something that no one will care about. ”

Zi Jue pouted: "Whatever." I don't have so many twists and turns, I can eat when I want to, and I can do what I want to put on the surface; They have to go around and around, don't get tired, whatever they are - where is the bottom? I'm a little tired, aren't you cold? ”

Bang Qingha let out a sigh: "Fortunately, the gray squirrel fur is not as good as the fox fur." The wind can't blow through it or freeze it, but it's just that the hands are a little cold. ”

Zi Jue glanced at Bang Qing and Mo Chou's clothes, and thought of her mother and younger siblings pursing their lips and didn't speak again; In Chifu, not even a girl will freeze, but she, her mother, younger siblings can only squeeze a quilt over the years, and in order to keep warm, they have to spread thick straw on the bed: how can a quilt cover four people?

But. She knew that it was useless to think about this, because no matter how uneven it was, it was also a fact and a thing of the past, and what she had to do was to make her mother and siblings no longer hungry and cold.

Mo Chou looked at it and pointed to a rockery in front of him: "On it." ”

Zi Jue looked at the rockery and knew that it was indeed a good place to talk, so she quickened her pace and ran over; And Wan Qing rushed over and pulled her sleeve, although she didn't say anything, but looking at her eyes, she knew that she wanted to stop Zijue from going up.

Smiling slightly, Zijue shook Bang Qing's hand, and then stepped on the steps of the rockery: Bang Qing won't understand, and she doesn't have to explain it to anyone.

Xia Chengqin saw Zijue and the three of them come up and stood up: "There is labor." He bowed slightly: "It's really helpless, that ......" He looked at Zi Jue and didn't know how to call it.

After he spoke. Mo Chou and Bang Qing walked away very interestingly, and stood still where they could see two people but couldn't hear them talking; This is their duty to be girls, and seeing that Zijue's name can be guaranteed, and not hearing it can not hinder the two of them from talking.

I don't want to be a master, and the people around me will have a few more ears.

Zi Jue looked at him and said very generously: "You call me by name or cousin, whatever you want, let's open the window and say something; You said you don't want to get involved, so why do you want to go on a blind date? Don't think I'm so easy to deceive when I'm young, you asked me to come to the rockery to blow the wind on such a cold day. If it's a lie to me, I can guarantee that you won't have to make any effort to go down the mountain, and you'll be able to rest in bed for a few months afterwards. ”

Xia Chengqin laughed: "Then let's call it Zijue, it always feels a little weird to call my cousin, maybe it was that blind date; I want to be sure, Zijue doesn't want to recruit people casually, right? ”

Zi Jue looked at him: "Go straight, or I'll send you down the mountain; The old lady does what she says, and she is definitely not joking with you. After she finished speaking, she raised her legs and stepped on the stone bench to stare at Xia Chengqin.

Xia Chengqin was slightly stunned and touched his nose with a wry smile: "If this wasn't Chifu, I would have thought that I had met the King of the Mountain, but I was still a woman—do you want to worry that I will be robbed and crushed?" He said a joke, and when he saw Zi Jue's expression relaxed, he sat down: "With filial piety, some things will be contrary to your own intentions." ”

Zi Jue was sure that he really wanted to discuss things with her, so he put away his legs and put away his skirt like everyone else, and sat down elegantly and dignifiedly: "Cousin Xia, then you don't want to make me believe with a mouth, right?" Well, maybe we should ask the second lady to discuss it later. ”

Xia Chengqin looked at Zi Jue: "Do you know why I would consult with you?" It turned out that I was going to accept my fate, but after seeing you, I saw hope. He shook his hand: "Zijue, you always have a momentum, no matter what is in front of you, you are not afraid of hitting the head and bleeding, anyway, if you don't like it, you will rush over and bump it." ”

"I can't, but I envy you; But it's not without harm that you're doing that, isn't it? You can't just do it all with your fists and dashes, can you? You need an ally, an ally who can stand with you. Xia Chengqin looked at Zi Jue very sincerely: "I don't want to get into trouble, but I have to deal with it now, and you don't want to be stuffed with a husband indiscriminately, why don't we cooperate?" ”

Zi Jue looked into his eyes and didn't speak, and after a while she spoke: "You tell me why you don't want to get into trouble first?" ”

Xia Chengqin lowered his head: "How many men will be willing?" This is one reason, and another reason is that I have a heart and don't want to wronged her, but I don't want to hurt another good woman because of me and her. ”

Zi Jue's heart skipped a slight beat, and she glanced at Xia Chengqin deeply: "What can you do to help me?" ”

Xia Chengqin raised his head again: "Zijue, will you always be like this attacking cities and plundering land?" I can help you deal with the other cousins, I can be your shield, and I can deal with the calculations of the other houses in the Chi Mansion. ”

Zi Jue tilted her head: "In the end, the fake show was really done?" ”

A smile bloomed on Xia Chengqin's lips: "No, I swear in the name of my ancestors, and you will also swear that you will not fake it, and finally find a good reason or some excuse ......"

Zi Jue thought for a while and said, "You still have to deal with the second lady and the people of the Xia family on my behalf." ”

Xia Chengqin thought for a while: "If you deal with my aunt, I can do what I can; I can promise not to let her hurt you, but I won't let you hurt her. I know ...... in some things, but Zijue's surname is Xia, and that's my aunt. ”

Zi Jue looked at him: "You are really honest, just like a gentleman." ”

Xia Chengqin smiled: "I know that Zijue will not trust others easily, so I can be honest before we can negotiate." ”

Zi Jue lowered his head and looked at his fingers.97ks. head, knowing that it was extremely disadvantageous for him to not have a person of his own in the Chi Mansion, and it was not so easy to bring his mother and younger siblings over, and it would not be a bad thing if someone could help him deal with most of the troubles: "I want to hear it, what do you need me to do if I agree?" ”

Xia Chengqin said lightly: "I only need you to promise me, and in the end, you will fulfill me and Lan'er." ”

Zi Jue looked at him: "That's it?" Sounds like you're at a loss. ”

"I can't think of anything else, it can be said that this is the only chance that Lan'er and I can be together." Looking at Zi Jue fixedly, he said softly: "You, have you ever really liked someone?" If there is, you will know that that person is all you have, your sky, your earth, all you have. ”

Zi Jue shook her head: "I have never liked men, I only like my mother and my younger siblings, they are everything to me." ”

Xia Chengqin looked at Zi Jue when he heard this: "I understand, but I can't help you; You know, I can only help each other with some things, but I'm not going to snitch. ”

Zi Jue couldn't imagine that he was so honest, and after thinking about it, she said, "Then give it a try." If you have bad intentions, then don't blame me for using bad intentions. After she finished speaking, she stood up and planned to leave: "I'll go back if there is nothing else, this kind of weather is still the warmest in the bed." ”

Xia Chengqin didn't know how to answer, the words of the quilt really shouldn't have been said by Zijue, a big girl, in front of him; Unexpectedly, Zi Jue took two steps and turned his head: "What do you think of that Han clan, or rather, how does the second lady plan to deal with that Han clan?" ”

It's not so easy to be honest, and Zijue really won't believe the words of others so easily, so she suddenly asked this sentence to see how honest Xia Chengqin can be.

Xia Chengqin also stood up: "I'm still wondering, why don't you ask?" My aunt's temperament is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, if that Han is really my uncle's outer room, I think her life is so unbearable; However, it doesn't matter if it's my uncle's outer room, you know. ”
