Chapter 49: Vertical and Horizontal (6)

Anyway, he returned to his gentle appearance, and Shu Yao became happy. She followed him, slightly behind him. The sleeve of his shirt could be gently patted on her hand one by one, and it was a slightly cool and soft touch. She could have stayed away from him and avoided the seemingly non-existent contact, but she could not bear it, and felt that the light touch was very interesting, and took a step forward, calculating the next time it would fall into her hands.

The wind on the bridge is still stronger than on the shore, but it's obviously much better than yesterday. She had thought the bridge was long, but this time she had come to an end before she knew it. Inside, he led her to a tearoom. Liu's mother was stopped at the door by the little girl who followed him.

The little guy smiled and said:

"Mommy stays. The general doesn't like a lot of people, it's the same for us to wait outside. ”

Mother Liu hesitated, it was said that she shouldn't let Shu Jiao a girl get along with a young man alone, but this young man was replaced by a high-powered and long-standing general. He is a high-ranking official and an elder, and he is also an absolute upright gentleman when he looks at his face. Mother Liu weighed it for a while, gave up and followed in, and said to the little girl with a smile:

"Then let it be as you please."

The little servant smiled and led her into a room next to her, served snacks diligently, poured tea again, and then went out and stood by the door.

The door of the tea room is wide open, and there is a landscape screen at the door, and there are mountains on the translucent silk, and several houses are faintly visible between the clouds and mist, and the water is still and vast.

Bypassing the screen, there were several hexagonal chairs in it, Shen Junzhuo sat on the middle one, he pointed to the chair next to him and said to Shu Yao:

"Sit."

Shu Yao sat up in a proper manner, turning his head to look around.

Shen Junzhuo took out the chess jar, and between him and her was the chessboard. He handed her the black chess pieces, Shu Yao took them and looked at them, thinking that his chess skills were not very good, so he accepted them peacefully.

This chess piece is jade, slightly cool in the hand, each one has been finely polished, the tentacles are round, and the feel is very good.

Shen Junzhuo made a gesture of invitation to Shu Yao, who pinched the chess piece and hesitated for a while before dropping the move.

Shen Junzhuo fell quickly, and he didn't seem to think about it, and put down a white child.

He didn't look at the chessboard, he wanted to see the hand holding the chess piece more than at the chessboard.

Her hands did not look as thin as her whole person, but were slightly infantile fat, with a small dimple at the base of each white finger, and the tips of the fingers were thin, and the nails were white with some powder, glowing with a healthy sheen.

He was a little distracted, and suddenly remembered the hairpin that Shen Yu gave her. I don't know if she knows what's in the box, but the more I think about it, the more I feel that there is something that I have to remind her. He followed Shu Yao and dropped another chess piece, pretending to be casual and asked:

"When you were thirty, Shen Yu sent you something?"

Shu Yao didn't expect him to see it, I don't know why, although there was nothing between her and Shen Yu, but in front of him, she just wanted to rush to clear something, and hurriedly replied:

"He gave it to everyone, it's a wolf's hair. He said that the girl's wrist strength is not good, and it is suitable to use this kind of hard pen. But I lost it that night, and I was ashamed of him. ”

It turned out that she thought it was a pen, not a hairpin for love between men and women, is it because of this that she is angry? Shen Junzhuo felt that his chest was even more blocked, and the aroma of the smoker also made him irritable, it was time for her to know some of the benefits. He pointed to the chessboard, signaling that it was time for her to fall, and he was depressed in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, and he said lightly:

"Shen Yu is Mrs. Jiang's only son, he can't do his own business, everything has to be up to Mrs. Jiang. Madame Chiang is not a child lover, she knows what is most important to her. In the future, Mrs. Shizi's family background will definitely be helpful to Shen Yu, the daughter of a fifth-grade official like you, she will definitely not look down on her. Or can you take a step back and make Shen Yu small? ”

Shu Jiao had just put down a chess piece, and when she heard him say this, she suddenly stood up from the chair, she didn't expect him to say so bluntly about the marriage of men and women, and she didn't expect him to directly misunderstand her intention for Shen Yu, her face instantly burned, and she hurriedly argued:

"Who is going to make him small! I don't mean anything to him at all! After thinking about it, he added:

"I'm not going to make anyone small!"

After her sentence, Shen Junzhuo's heart suddenly relaxed, he felt that the qi was smooth, the fragrance smelled good, and even the gloomy weather outside became charming, he leisurely dropped a chess piece, a slight smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and said:

"What's the hurry, sit down, play chess."

Shu Jiao felt his heart beat suddenly, why could he be so light-hearted? Is it because you don't care? Is a lifelong event for a girl worth mentioning in his eyes? She looked at his fair face, the skin on which was much better than that of many girls, every part of his face was impeccable and perfect, and the raised brows showed his pride and bearing, and he seemed much more calm and relaxed than her impatience. She was suddenly deflated, moved to the chair with a sigh of relief, and sat down gently.

Twisted up a chess piece, found a random place to fall, and then put it down, only to find that the white pieces on the vertical and horizontal chessboard had surrounded the black pieces, and she was like a canary trapped in a cage, rushing everywhere and unable to break through his encirclement.

She sighed, reached out and picked up the chess piece that had just fallen again, and said:

"I lost, Uncle Nine."

Shen Junzhuo noticed her abnormality, and she was suddenly so depressed that his mood that had just improved made him feel a little uncomfortable. Think about what you just said? Is it the sentence "the daughter of a five-grade official" that makes her uncomfortable? He secretly regretted it in his heart, he shouldn't have said that to let her dispel his thoughts about Shen Yu. He wanted to make amends, opened his mouth to call the little girl, served her a plate of snacks, refilled the fragrant tea, and when he cleaned up the chessboard and restarted, he said:

"Girls must not be self-deprecating, family background is destined, and they can't change themselves, and these are external things, and people with real vision won't care about these."

Is he saying that Madame Chiang has no vision? But what does it matter if she has vision or not? Shu Yao still can't keep her spirits up, she doesn't care what others do, it's him she cares about! She felt a little sour in her heart, her eyebrows lowered, she couldn't look up at him, she was afraid that if she looked up, tears would flow out of her eyes.
