292. Chapter 292
Saying that, Liu Tong took out a jade bracelet from his pocket and handed it to Jade, and said: "Jade, this is a jade bracelet handed down from my ancestors, and it was also used by my father to propose marriage to my mother, and now it has been passed on to me, today I want to talk about it and give it to you, I hope you can accept it." ”
Jade's face turned unusually pale, her eyes were bloodshot at this time, and crystal tears swirled in her eyes, she endured to let the tears fall, her hands clenched into fists, and she was silent.
"Jade, promise me, marry me. Liu Tong's eyes were full of longing, and his tone was unprecedentedly serious.
Jade's stiff body moved, shook his head, and said: "Liu Tong, thank you for your kindness, but I really just treat you as a friend, please take back this bracelet, I, I really don't mean anything to you between men and women." ”
"Jade, you!" Liu Tong was shocked by Jade's words, his face was incredulous, and he shook his head for a long time before he said: "I don't believe it, Jade, what nonsense are you talking about, you look at me and tell me seriously, you lied to me just now." ”
Liu Tong, who has never experienced the affairs of men and women, never thought that he and Jade had been together for so long, and they had already acquiesced to each other, but now Jade decisively rejected his affection, and his face became extremely ugly.
"Liu Tong. Jade turned her head, looked at Liu Tong, bit her lip, and said: "Thank you for your heart, what I said is true, I have indeed always regarded you as a good friend, there is no other meaning, you must have misunderstood, I have someone else in my heart." ”
"No, it can't be, you must lie to me. Liu Tong shook his head, with a look of disbelief, Rao is how smart he is on weekdays, at this time, he was also hit by the jade in chaos, and his heart was in turmoil.
"Liu Tong, don't be like this, I'm telling the truth, at this time, how could I lie to you, I understand your intentions, thank you, but I'm sorry to disappoint you, you go back first, I want to be alone and quiet." Jade shook her head, her tone unusually cold.
Liu Tong looked at Jade in a daze for a long time, if he was still unbelievable before, now he was completely beaten into the abyss by Jade's words.
Silently put the bracelet into his arms, Liu Tong looked at the jade carefully for a long time, as if he wanted to completely introduce her whole person into his heart, and finally turned around and left silently with complicated feelings.
His steps were gentle, and he seemed unusually weak.
Hua Jiangyue at the door was waiting silently at this time, she didn't want to listen to anything intentionally, but with her current strength, she could still hear a little bit of the conversation between Jade and Liu Tong in the room.
"Liu Tong, are you okay?" Looking at Liu Tong as if he had been drained of strength, Hua Jiangyue frowned slightly, Jade's mind was not clear to others, but she still saw it clearly, at this time it was obvious that Jade was not right, but Liu Tong, who was the party concerned, was provoked by this sudden blow, lost his former calmness, and his heart was confused, so he couldn't think clearly.
"I'm fine, thank you to the flower owner, it's just Jade her. Liu Tong wanted to speak and stopped, shaking his head and sighing bitterly.
Hua Jiangyue glanced at Liu Tong, this Liu Tong is good at everything, but he is too honest, and he has a common problem among young scholars, that is, he will die and lose his sharpness once things are not accomplished, think about this and that.
However, Hua Jiangyue didn't plan to explain, this kind of thing should be figured out by himself, and it was just a good time to take a look at the other party's intentions, if Liu Tong completely broke off his thoughts with Jade because of this, then his current affection is not worth entrusting Jade to him.
"You go back and think about it first, let Jade be quiet, anyway, the days will be long. Hua Jiangyue didn't say it directly, but she still mentioned it very vaguely, and she didn't say much.
"Yes. ”
Liu Tong was full of worries, his mood was low, and he didn't know how to talk to Hua Jiangyue, so he simply left.
Seeing the back of Liu Tong, who had heavy footsteps, disappearing into the backyard, Hua Jiangyue sighed and slowly pushed the door into the house.
"Miss!"
As soon as she saw Hua Jiangyue, Jade could no longer hide her vulnerability, and threw herself into Hua Jiangyue's arms, crying bitterly.
Hua Jiangyue hugged Jade and let her cry for a long time before comforting: "Okay, okay, Jade, it's okay, you, don't you understand Liu Tong's thoughts, I saw Liu Tong's depressed appearance just now, and I knew that you should have rejected his mind." ”
"Miss, I'm just taking him as a friend. It took a long time for Jade to stop crying, and her voice was like a mosquito and a fly's mouth.
"The mouth is not right. Hua Jiangyue opened her mouth angrily, and then said: "Why do you bother, but Miss promised you, no matter what, I will also come up with a way to help you restore your appearance, but don't worry, let me think of a way." ”
"Well, it's okay miss, it's useless to blame me. Jade shook her head and blamed herself again, thinking that she had been kidnapped in the first place, if she hadn't paid attention at the time, she wouldn't have been like this.
"Okay, don't think about it so much, you rest first, I'll go to the front first, and take care of something by the way." Hua Jiangyue patted Jade's shoulder, although the two were not sisters, Hua Jiangyue had always treated her as a sister, and never cared too much.
"Yes. ”
Jade was full of thoughts, and when she refused Liu Tong at this time, her heart was also tingling, and she really needed to be quiet.
In the next two days, perhaps the sincerity of the apology of the Rouge Building was not enough, and the compensation was not satisfactory, or this time the actions of Yuejifang won the respect of many people, and the business of the entire Yuejifang was much better than before, and the customers also increased by more than three floors, many of whom were loyal customers of the previous Rouge Building.
Feeling that the business was gradually booming, Hua Jiangyue had less hatred for Rouge Building, but just like this, it was still not enough.
The last time there was a big fuss, the fourth lady not only didn't get the benefits, but was also ridiculed fiercely, which can be said to have lost face in front of the public, with her heart, how could she not retaliate.
The dog that doesn't bark likes to bite people the most, and it is often unprepared, Hua Jiangyue is also worried that the fourth lady who has temporarily stopped will make a comeback at this time, so she is also thinking about how to take the opportunity to completely blow the other party, so that they can't make trouble in a short time.
At the same time, during this time, she was also searching for some elixirs, trying to find a way to completely restore the jade's appearance.
The high wall is painted in bright red, highlighting the wealth of the owner's family, the exquisite attic is intricately intertwined, pleasing to the eye, and the birds and flowers are fragrant between the terraces of the water pavilion, and the scenery is full of scenery.
This is the mansion of the four princes, as the prince, he commanded the three armies, and his military achievements were impressive, and he had already been rewarded by His Majesty with a piece of his own mansion.
Although the four princes are busy with their daily official duties, they don't have to do everything personally, so when they do, he leisurely fishes in the lotus pond with a fishing rod.
This lotus pond was specially ordered to be dug in the house, and it attracted the living water of the moat.
"Hey, what an elegant mood, I actually hung the fish here, but I don't know if you use a straight hook or a curved hook?" With a chuckle, Hua Jiangyue's clothes fluttered and slowly came to the side of the four princes.
"What a straight hook and a crooked hook, my fish is about to be hooked, and you are scared away. The fourth prince smiled, he obviously didn't understand the words of straight hook fishing.
Hua Jiangyue was not embarrassed at all, sat on the stone on the side, took a piece of pastry next to the fourth prince and threw it into her mouth, and said with a smile, "It's strange that you can catch fish like this, you can save it, or look at me." ”
After speaking, she raised her hand, the milky white halo was magnified in her fingertips, she flicked her fingers, the halo fell into the lotus pond, and suddenly a koi fish suddenly surfaced, she sucked it with her hand, and the koi crossed a beautiful arc in the air and fell into the bucket beside the four princes.
"You're fishing too. The fourth prince was speechless, and he didn't bother to say much, smiled, put down the fishing rod and said: "You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, come to my house today, there must be something." ”
"The four princes are really as wise as torches. Hua Jiangyue nodded and admitted decisively.
The four princes had already understood Hua Jiangyue's cheerfulness, shook their heads a little funny, and said, "Say, what's the matter, I heard that you have been very miserable recently." Immediately, he saw that Hua Jiangyue was unconvinced, and hurriedly said: "Don't admit it, others don't know, I don't understand yet, this must be your secret troublemaker." ”
"Hey, I say, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense, be careful of being struck by lightning, and ask for evidence in everything. Hua Jiangyue retorted angrily.
The four princes were noncommittal, obviously believing that this matter was related to Hua Jiangyue.
Hua Jiangyue was speechless for a while, and after the joke was over, her face was solemn, and she said, "I have something I want your help with." ”
The fourth prince was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What's the matter, tell me, my ability is limited." "As a prince, although his status is precious, there are many restrictions, and I don't know how many people are staring at his every move, if it is unreasonable, he may be referenced.
"It's not a big deal. Hua Jiangyue smiled and said: "You have also seen that the Rouge Building has been operating poorly recently, and there has been a toxic rouge gouache, which has damaged everyone's interests, and even caused a storm in the city. ”
The fourth prince was speechless, glared at Hua Jiangyue, and said angrily: "Speaking of which, I still want to take revenge." Hua Jiangyue didn't hide her purpose at all, so that the four princes really didn't know what to say, but this was a good note, and immediately said a little weirdly: "You have thought of this trick a long time ago, no wonder you let it go last time." ”
"Hehe, there is no such thing, this is just a request from the grass people, I hope His Royal Highness the prince can administer justice. Hua Jiangyue said that you understand, although she denied it verbally, but as if she didn't say it, the protest was pale and weak.
"Alright, I'll take a look at that. The fourth prince nodded, and agreed to come down, after all, he did look at the group of people in the General's Mansion a little unhappy, not to mention that if he could really get to the General's Mansion, it would be very beneficial to him, after all, he was the one who led the troops.
